Bai Ruoxi's words made Lin Qiu feel like he was falling into an ice cellar.
She had indeed said these words before, but she had also clearly said others.
But in the end, Bai Ruoxi only remembered these.
"Anyway, you can't mess around anymore. Just think of it as Aunt Qiu begging you, okay?"
Lin Qiu held her shoulders, his whole body trembling.
Bai Ruoxi had never seen her like this before, and quickly helped her to the bedside: "Aunt Qiu, have you been feeling unwell recently? Do you want me to go to the hospital with you?"
"No need, I know my own body well." Lin Qiu rejected her directly, "Promise me, okay?"
Bai Ruoxi nodded reluctantly: "Okay, I get it, you're really nagging."
Lin Qiu didn't know how long her words would last, but he still chose to believe her.
However, the next day, Bai Ruoxi secretly found Gu Mingfeng.
Gu Mingfeng pushed open the door of the coffee shop and searched for a long time before he found her in a backlit booth.
"What do you want from me?"
As the New Year approaches, department stores are very busy.
Because he had taken several days off some time ago, the mall owner is now trying his best to exploit him and has been arranging dinner parties for him for several consecutive days.
Bai Ruoxi raised her eyes and looked at him carefully, and found that he had lost a lot of weight, and his formerly plump cheeks were deeply sunken.
Not only does his skin look sallow, but he also looks less energetic than before.
"Of course it's something very important. I heard you got humiliated by Jiang Mingxin again? So, it feels good to be sneered at, doesn't it?"
Ever since Gu Mingfeng discovered that her tenderness and cuteness were all fake, he no longer had any interest in her.
"If you're just here to mock me today, forget it."
"No, I came to you this time because I sincerely want to cooperate with you." Bai Ruoxi looked around cautiously and lowered her voice very low: "If I could find a way to send Jiang Mingxin to your mouth, would you dare to eat it?"
Eat? Is that what he meant?
Gu Mingfeng raised his lips with an odd expression. "I never thought you'd say something like that. What can you do? Jiang Mingxin is very defensive, and you two are already enemies. How could you possibly find an opportunity?"
"Of course I have my own way. You just need to answer me, do you dare or not?" Bai Ruoxi stared at him.
"Why not?" Gu Mingfeng knew she was provoking him, but he still gave a positive answer, "She is my woman."
Bai Ruoxi laughed dryly. "Okay, since you have the guts to cheat on Xing Haodong, then it's a deal! I'll let you know when everything is ready."
After saying that, she picked up her bag and stood up.
Gu Mingfeng reached out and held her arm. "Why are you so anxious? How long have we not seen each other? Don't you miss me at all?"
Bai Ruoxi sneered, "Missed you? Look at your face now, you look like a ghost hollowed out by alcohol and sex. You're not even worthy enough to carry Xing Haodong's shoes. How could you be worthy?"
"I don't deserve it? How can he sit on the position of director of the Anti-Smuggling Bureau at such a young age? Isn't it because he has a good father! Just wait and see, when the large-scale military downsizing is over and the old chief retires from his current position, his future will not be so good!"
Gu Mingfeng gritted his teeth, his face showing disdain. "The Director of the Anti-Smuggling Bureau is quite impressive, but I may not be worse than him in the future!"
Hearing this, Bai Ruoxi's eyes moved slightly, but she didn't agree in her heart.
"You talk as if you'll be rich in the future. You're the deputy manager of a department store, right? How much do you make a month?"
"The salary is 100. If I can get an order from a big company, I'll definitely get bonuses and commissions. I made a full 260 last month. That's quite a bit, right?"
Bai Ruoxi nodded slightly. It was okay, but still far from what she wanted.
A lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even if Chief Xing retires, the Xing family still has a strong foundation in Beijing.
Moreover, Xing Haodong has strong working ability. If he can hold on for a few more years, he might be transferred to the central government.
By then, she will be able to gain a firm foothold in Beijing.
A superior life is what she wants!
"Just barely getting by. Keep working hard. I'm leaving now."
Gu Mingfeng had no choice but to stand up and see her off. After she left, he realized that Bai Ruoxi had not paid for the coffee and dessert she had ordered.
He charged him fifteen yuan for such a small thing. What a waste!
When he becomes successful, he can keep Jiang Mingxin away and marry a rich lady as his wife, so that he can enjoy the happiness of having two wives. Wouldn’t that be wonderful?
Gu Mingfeng walked out the door while fantasizing.
As a result, he got drunk at a social gathering that night and spent all his newly earned salary.
A few days later.
Because of her outstanding performance in the English competition, Jiang Mingxin took the lead and achieved the first place.
Class 7 was filled with laughter and joy. Not only did the principal personally present her with an award, he also gave her a set of exquisite stationery as a reward to encourage her to keep up the good work and go to Beijing to participate in the National English Competition after the New Year.
Jiang Mingxin glanced at Bai Ruoxi's resentful gaze and his smile became even brighter.
"Thank you, Principal. I will definitely perform well and show my grace in the competition, bringing honor to our No. 1 Middle School!"
The principal's eyes narrowed with joy. "Okay, then you should work harder. If you have any difficulties, you can always consult the teacher."
Jiang Mingxin smiled and nodded. She had the strongest backing in Teacher He, so she had nothing to worry about.
Sunday is the day she moves into her new home.
Jiang Bin, Liu Sha and others came to help. There weren't many things in the house to begin with, so it only took a few people one trip to move everything.
