While eating, Lu Kaiyun kept asking considerately, "Miss Jiang, which dish would you like to eat? Do you want it brought to you?" and so on.
Jiang Qiao said that she was not picky about food and would eat anything.
At this time, some people said, "Ms. Jiang is now a hot commodity at Kering Group. With just a few words, she easily avoided a financial dispute. Miss Jiang is indeed very knowledgeable."
Lu Kaiyun just listened, occasionally smiling, and said, "Yes, I have to consider increasing the salary at Jiang Qiao Law Firm."
If it were usual, Jiang Qiao would have been overjoyed and said "really?", but now, until now, she is still immersed in the shock of what she just did, thinking about the touch when she just touched it, and trying to figure out what it felt like like a blind person. Anyway, when she just touched it, she felt like she was electrocuted and it was too erotic.
She deeply regretted her vulgar thoughts.
"I only read about this case when I was in school. It's a classic case, but it rarely happens, so it gets less attention. I just copied what others did," Jiang Qiao said. "I'm just a scholar."
Lu Kaiyun seemed to repeat these four words: "Scholar's spirit."
At this time, someone asked Jiang Qiao, "Miss Jiang, which city is better, City A or Fengcheng?"
Everyone laughed and started blackmailing people openly, asking them to say that City A was good.
Jiang Qiao also knew that it was not appropriate to praise Fengcheng at this time.
At this time, someone next to him joked, "Fengcheng is his hometown, so naturally Fengcheng is better."
Because everyone saw that Jiang Qiao was Lu Kaiyun's guest of honor, they naturally took advantage of the situation and flattered Jiang Qiao. In fact, they really wanted to please Mr. Lu, but it was also true that they were interested in Jiang Qiao, a young woman.
When it comes to the question of hometown and foreign land, someone else replied, "Perhaps Miss Jiang will unconsciously regard the foreign land as her hometown."
Jiang Qiao smiled and said, not wanting to offend anyone, "Fengcheng has its advantages, and A City has its advantages. They each have their own merits."
Someone else said, "City A is good, but the men in City A are even better, right?"
Everyone present burst into laughter, and Jiang Qiao lowered his head to eat.
Lu Kaiyun said to the confinement nanny next to him, "Take out my Louis XIII." He then said, "Miss Jiang is a married girl. You married men should stop joking about her."
Then Lu Kaiyun turned sideways and asked Jiang Qiao, "Would you like to drink Louis XIII or Wuliangye?"
"Let's have Louis XIII, Wuliangye is too strong." Jiang Qiao said casually, ignoring Lu Kaiyun.
"Hey, listen to Miss Jiang." After saying that, Lu Kaiyun asked his aunt to get the Louis XIII.
Jiang Qiao was secretly complaining, not letting others say anything. You yourself were talking more excitedly than anyone else behind her back, making her heart burn with rage. Not only did you talk about it, you also did it, touched her, and even let Jiang Qiao touch you. Is this the attitude of an unmarried man towards a married woman?
After the wine was brought, Lu Kaiyun asked his aunt to pour it into everyone's glass.
Jiang Qiao picked it up, took a sip, and said, "It tastes pretty good."
Lu Kaiyun chuckled and said, "I didn't expect that Miss Jiang is such a drunkard."
After the talk of wine, everyone started teasing Jiang Qiao again, "Miss Jiang, didn't you find a boyfriend from City A? Mr. Lu, you won't introduce one to her? That's outrageous. But you are a guest of honor."
Lu Kaiyun began to smile again, "I'm afraid Miss Jiang won't like it, as she has high standards."
Jiang Qiao just lowered his head and ate.
Someone else said, "Does Miss Jiang have such requirements? She is as beautiful as a flower. She should be so kind if her conditions are high."
Jiang Qiao paused and said, "Actually—actually, I have a boyfriend."
There was a sudden sigh at the dinner table, and Lu Kaiyun couldn't help but pause with his chopsticks while picking up food.
"Oh, Miss Jiang has a boyfriend. Who is he? Tell us about it and see who is the lucky one?" Everyone started to cheer.
"I'm just an ordinary person. I do research, not business. I'm not that materialistic. I like her." Jiang Qiao kept talking while eating. She didn't want so many people to pay attention to her love life.
"Is it the one who ran with Miss Jiang last time?" someone started to make trouble again.
"Did you see it?" Jiang Qiao looked up in surprise. She was surprised when Lu Kaiyun asked her who she learned running from.
It turns out that not only Lu Kaiyun knew about it, but so many people in the Kering Group also knew about it.
"How surprising! Miss Jiang lives right next to Kering, which has tens of thousands of people. It's normal for one or two to see her. Besides, it's Miss Jiang's own business, so naturally it'll spread like wildfire." Someone else said, teasing Jiang Qiao, "This lucky guy must be so lucky! He must have some extraordinary qualities, otherwise how could he have won Miss Jiang's favor?"
Chen Wen suddenly spoke up at this time, "Oh, is that the one your brother introduced to me? It seems like no one knows a sister better than her brother. I never thought that my sister's lifelong affairs would be solved just like that."
Jiang Qiao nodded again, "Well, he and I grew up together, so it's not surprising that he knows my preferences."
But in her heart, she secretly made up her mind: From now on, she must stay away from men like Lu Kaiyun. He is too dangerous. The hormonal scent on him is not the kind that can be smelled from a distance. It is not the kind of peacock spreading its tail. But once you get close to him, Jiang Qiao will know what kind of danger she is in. So, he is in danger, and others don’t know it. She still asks him to introduce her to a partner. How ridiculous is this?
He is indeed a reserved and reserved person, but outsiders cannot see that kind of reserved and reserved person.
Only when Jiang Qiao experienced it personally could he understand how stifling and infuriating it was.
"It seems Miss Jiang is destined to live in City A for the rest of her life. He's boosted City A's GDP so much! Your boyfriend is even more impressive than the director of the Investment Promotion Bureau." Someone else joked, "Tell me, how did he hook you up?"
Jiang Qiao smiled and said, "Actually, he didn't. We were attracted to each other. We ran together, read together, and he bought me some snacks from Deshengyuan. That's it—there's nothing else."
Everyone at the table put down their chopsticks and stared at Jiang Qiao, "What else do you want? It's great to have the same interests as you."
Jiang Qiao stopped talking.
When Jiang Qiao was speaking just now, Lu Kaiyun remained silent.
After Jiang Qiao finished speaking, he said, "So good? Can you bring me here to meet everyone someday?"
Everyone also cheered and said, "Okay, okay."
Jiang Qiao thought to himself, it has come to this point and I can't do anything else.
But Chen Liangcheng didn’t know. What should he do?
Jiang Qiao finally said, "Okay."
Everyone then calmed down and waited to see Jiang Qiao's next move.
