Chapter 8

Regarding the group purchase, Lu Xiaoqiao is in a state of lying down.

This is really thanks to the power restriction. All the sand washing factories have taken over the autumn orders of various companies in the early stage, and it is impossible to accept urgent orders.

Then I will leave Mr. Qian alone for a few days and follow up when I come back from Haicheng. By then, he will probably be the one who is anxious!

At this moment, Lu Xiaoqiao is considering whether to tell her sisters that there is a corrupt official in her uncle’s company. Why does she have a sense of déjà vu that she found out that her best friend’s husband was cheating on her, and whether she should tell her best friend? She really doesn’t know how to start.

“Okay, okay, I want to go with you. What shall we eat?” Speaking of food, Lin Lin is looking forward to getting off work quickly. Since she met Lu Xiaoqiao, she realized that there are so many delicious foods in the world.

“Bullfrog! I saw you enjoyed it last time. How about two flavors for the four of us, one with garlic and one with basil?”

When Lu Xiaoqiao took Lin Lin to eat bullfrog for the first time, Lin Lin said she was afraid to eat it. When the dish was served, she saw the caramel-colored bullfrog, each piece of which was wrapped in soup, mixed with the aroma of garlic.

In the end, she couldn’t resist the temptation of the aroma, so she picked up a small piece with chopsticks, and fell in love with bullfrog from then on. 🅆🅆𝙬.𝙫𝙊𝘿𝕋𝕎1.🄲𝘾

Originally, Lin Lin was embarrassed because she mentioned that she had eaten bullfrog for the first time, but when she heard that she could eat two flavors today, that embarrassment disappeared immediately.

“Great!”

After work, several people went directly to the bullfrog restaurant. After the three of them arrived, they ordered first. When the dishes came, Qin Momo also arrived.

When they went home after dinner, Zhao Jia suddenly said, “By the way, when Lin Lin and I went to the bathroom just now, she told me that her brother couldn’t take us to Haicheng that day.”

Lu Xiaoqiao was shocked: “No way, what should we do, is it too late for us to buy tickets now?”

Qin Momo, who was walking in front, took out the key and opened the door: “It’s definitely too late to buy tickets now. It’s hard to buy tickets before and after the exhibition every year. Our company will avoid those days when we have business.”

Qin Momo works in an advertising company in Hangzhou, headquartered in Haicheng.

After Zhao Jia followed Qin Momo into the house, he slumped down on the sofa in the living room.

She just lay down and got up again to pick up Tuanzi who was wagging his tail at her, then lay down again with the dog in her arms.

“Someone answered and said that her uncle was going to Haicheng on a business trip that day, and it was just right to take a few of us with him. Hey! Lin Lin’s brother looks quite friendly. I have only met Mr. Zhou twice. His aura is too strong. I dare not breathe when I get close to him. I can’t talk and chat at that time. Can I just sit there for more than two hours of driving?” Lu Xiaoqiao didn’t expect that it would only be a few days before she would be a primary school student next to Zhou Qizhen again: “its okay. If he doesn’t talk, we won’t talk either. At most, we can just sleep in the car.”

“By the way! Momo, I’ll trouble you with Tuanzi during our visit to Haicheng.”

Qin Momo likes Tuanzi very much. She used to have a dog, but later lost it. Because of this, she almost lost half her life at that time.

“Don’t worry, we will never treat our Tuanzi badly.”

“I’m absolutely sure of this.”

After Lu Xiaoqiao finished speaking, she went into her room, took down two sets of clothes hanging in the closet and returned to the living room.

“Don’t worry about that. I can’t buy a ticket anyway. Come on, help me look at these two sets of clothes. Which one is better for me to wear that day? You said we are at an outdoor clothing exhibition, why do you want me to wear a skirt? You didn’t ask for it as a designer, but you are as strict with me as a salesperson. I only have these two sets of skirts. You two can help me pick one.”

Zhao Jia and Qin Momo looked at the two sets of clothes in Lu Xiaoqiao’s hands. One was a dark French suit dress, and the other was a casual fishtail skirt with a T-shirt on it.

“I don’t know anything about skirts, so let Momo help you choose. Fortunately, you didn’t ask me to wear a skirt, otherwise I would quit my job and risk scaring everyone to death.”

Zhao Jia has always been carefree. Her daily clothing style is also neutral, and even her hairstyle is a very simple short hair.

Qin Momo carefully examined the dress for a while: “In theory, this French dress is more suitable, but it should be paired with formal shoes. Wouldn’t it be tiring after a day?”

Zhao Jia sat up from the sofa: “You should take them all with you. Wear this fishtail dress on the day you go. It’s more comfortable. If you can’t wear it at the venue, you can change it again!”

Qin Momo smiled and pushed Zhao Jia: “What fishtail? It’s called a fishtail skirt.”

After saying that, he turned to Lu Xiaoqiao and said, “Zhao Jia is right, you should bring everything with you. You will be staying in Haicheng for four days, so you should bring two or three sets of clothes.”

“Well, I’ll tie my hair up during those days. It’s too hot today, and I don’t know what the temperature is inside the venue. Even with air conditioning, it’s still hot enough to kill people when things get busy.”

“Don’t pretend to be a lady anymore?” Zhao Jia sat up and asked.

“Lady? I’ve put that thing in the cold palace for the time being.”

In the end, Lu Xiaoqiao listened to the opinions of the two and brought both sets of clothes. She also brought a set of T-shirts and jeans, and two pairs of shoes would be enough. Pants and canvas shoes would be just right.

…

On the day of departure.

Lin Lin told Lu Xiaoqiao and Zhao Jia through WeChat that they didn’t need to rush downstairs because it was too hot outside. She would call them when she arrived before going downstairs.

But the two who agreed still came down early and waited on the street outside the community. 𝙬𝙬𝓦.🅅𝙊🅳𝓣🆆1.𝓒🅲After waiting for about 20 minutes, a black business car drove up from a distance and stopped in front of the two.

After the car stopped, the electric sliding doors of the co-pilot and the back seat were opened at the same time.

A young man wearing glasses got out of the co-pilot and hurried to Lu Xiaoqiao: “Hello, Miss Lu! I will help you two put your luggage in the back.”

“Thank you, Secretary Ding.”

The man was Zhou Qizhen’s chief secretary. Because of Lin Lin’s relationship, Lu Xiaoqiao had met him several times. Secretary Ding was always polite and well-mannered every time he saw her.

“Xiaoqiao, didn’t I ask you two to wait upstairs? It’s so hot, you must have waited for a long time, hurry up and get in the car!” Lin Lin got out of the car, followed by Li Yuxuan.

“This is my uncle’s good friend, and these two are my friends, Lu Xiaoqiao and Zhao Jia.” Lin Lin introduced them to the few people.

“Hello!” Li Yuxuan greeted Zhao Jia first and then turned to Lu Xiaoqiao: “Miss Lu, do you still remember me?”

“Of course I do, Mr. Li.”

“Do you know each other?” Lin Lin couldn’t remember when she introduced the two to each other.

“The day your brother helped Miss Lu move, your uncle and I were also in your brother’s car.”

“Okay, get in the car quickly, it’s too hot, Lin Lin, the three of you sit in the front, and your uncle and I will sit in the back.”

Lin Lin was about to get in the car when she was pulled down by Li Yuxuan.

“Why are you pulling me?” Lin Lin turned around and glared at Li Yuxuan.

“Why do you say that? Is it so rude? Let your friend get in first.” Because of Zhou Qizhen’s relationship, Li Yuxuan has always regarded Lin Lin as a junior, so he usually speaks casually.

There are two rows of seats in the back of the business car. He and Zhou Qizhen sit in the back. The innermost seat in the front row can only be occupied by Lu Xiaoqiao today. Only there is the best position for good brothers to see their future wives.

Lin Lin, Lu Xiaoqiao and Zhao Jia were used to being carefree and casual with each other. They didn’t remember the etiquette of hospitality. They had given back everything they learned in etiquette class.

“Yes, yes, Xiaoqiao, you and Sister Jia go first, I’ll sit on the outside.”

Lu Xiaoqiao got on the car first without any hesitation.

As soon as she got on the car, her eyes met the deep eyes of the man sitting in the back seat.

Today, Zhou Qi was wearing a pure white long-sleeved shirt, with two buttons unbuttoned without a tie, and looked a little younger than usual. He sat there casually and naturally with his long legs wrapped in dark straight suit pants that never changed.
