Jian Jin walked over, bent down, picked up the remote control on the coffee table and turned off the TV. She looked back at the man sitting in the wheelchair, still staring at the black screen without changing his expression. She couldn't help but sigh, "Brother, if you want to reconcile with Qiao, go apologize to her. There's no need to torture yourself here all the time. She can't see you tormenting yourself like this."
You have to play the victim!
If you act pitiful in front of Joe, he may be tough on the outside but soft on the inside. And since you are friends who have been through thick and thin together, he might forgive you.
Jian Jin especially wanted to say this.
Seeing that Lu Zhi had no reaction, she put the remote control back and sighed again: "Okay, I'll go talk to Qiao."
Lu Zhi reacted at this time, his eyelashes fluttered slightly, and he looked at her: "You are not allowed to go."
Jian Jin was just talking, knowing his bad temper, she immediately turned back and put the takeaway on the table: "It's ok for me not to go, then you eat first."
Lu Zhi frowned and said in a suppressed tone: "No appetite."
Jian Jin didn't tolerate his bad temper, so she immediately pretended to make a phone call: "If you don't eat, I'll call Qiao to complain."
“…” Lu Zhi half-narrowed his eyes and stared at her.
Jian Jin's beautiful jawline was straightened, and she showed no intention of giving in.
The atmosphere in the villa was tense for a few seconds.
Lu Zhi was the first to frown, looked away, and said calmly: "If someone else had said this to me today, she would have died long ago."
"Thank you for not killing me." Jian Jin smiled and walked over to open the takeaway box for him. It was full of light meals.
She handed him the sweet porridge and spread out the boxes of vegetables one by one to make it easier for him to pick up the vegetables. Then she went to the kitchen to get some water.
When Jian Jin came out again, she saw Lu Zhi eating bit by bit, but he ate very little and hardly touched the food in front of him.
Her eyes were dim, but she pretended to be calm as she walked over and placed the mug in front of him: "Hey, drink some warm water to nourish your stomach."
Lu Zhi took the cup slowly. His fingers were slender and well-proportioned, which looked very pretty. However, he was in a bad mood and only took shallow sips of the water.
Jian Jin put the cup away for him and said as if she remembered something, "Ji Ziyin contacted me this afternoon and said that the Privy Council had a mission and needed your help."
Lu Zhi didn't even bother to raise his head and didn't react at all.
Jian Jin sighed and continued, "I have heard that the Privy Council needs new people to work together to complete this mission, which means that Qiao and she both have this mission."
"She came to us for help just to take advantage of the opportunity to step down and prove that she has the ability."
Ji Zinyin is good at calculating.
Lu Zhi reacted this time, and he tightened his fingertips to touch the jade ring on his thumb: "You said she has the same mission as Ji Ziyin?"
When Jian Jin heard his tone, she subconsciously raised her eyelids and her eyebrows twitched wildly: "Brother, what do you want to do now?"
"If Ji Ziyin finishes before her, she will have a much harder time in the Privy Council than now..." Lu Zhi seemed to have thought of something and narrowed his eyes: "Then she will need my help."
Jian Jin: “…”
This brain circuit.
This emotional intelligence.
What else can she say except to persuade!
It seemed that Lu Zhi didn't want her to answer. He already had the answer in his heart. Hope appeared on his handsome face, like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw: "Let Ji Ziyin contact me tomorrow."
Jian Jin responded and held her forehead: "Boss, why don't you consider it again?"
She felt disgusted just by looking at people like Ji Zinyin.
