"Qiao, please listen to my explanation..." Jian Jin hurriedly stopped her.
Qiao Nian's eyes were as clear as a deep well. He didn't say anything, but just glanced at her.
"..." Jian Jin seemed to see her restraint and forbearance, so she let go of her hand and made way for her to pass.
Qiao Nian did not look angry when he entered the room. Instead, he looked around calmly and soon saw someone he hadn't seen for a long time in the restaurant.
She walked straight towards Lu Zhi.
"Qiao." Jian Jin was worried and chased after her. She pulled her back and explained anxiously, "I can explain."
Qiao Nian ignored her attempts to stop him and walked in front of Lu Zhi. He slightly hooked his neck and looked at him calmly, "What do you want to do in Beijing?"
Speak, speak nicely! Jian Jin quickly used her eyes to signal Lu Zhi to speak nicely, and was so anxious that sweat was about to break out on her forehead.
When Lu Zhi saw the person he had been thinking about day and night, he looked no different from usual. He avoided the question and asked, "Why don't you accept my birthday present?"
"?" Qiao Nian frowned and looked at him with surprise.
Lu Zhi then said: "Uncle Jiang likes me very much."
Jian Jin heard from behind that he had accurately stepped on two minefields. She took a deep breath and wanted to roll her eyes. She was so angry that her throat was smoking.
How can he compete with others for people with his EQ!
Can't he just speak properly
When Qiao Nian heard him mention Jiang Zongjin, her eyes darkened, her hands in her pockets, and her expression became warning: "Don't touch my family."
Lu Zhi stared at her for a few seconds, then looked away randomly, neither admitting nor denying, "Is that what you came to me to talk about?"
Qiao Nian couldn't figure out what was going on in his mind. She stood in front of him with her legs propped up, narrowed her eyes, and said in a cold voice, "You should know where my bottom line is. I don't want to end up with no friends left."
"Didn't you say long ago that you're no longer my friend?" Lu Zhi would jump on the suicidal idea.
Qiao Nian took a deep breath when he asked her the question as if it was a matter of course, and her brows were twisted into a rope: "Whatever you think!" Lu Zhi looked up at her again, as if he liked seeing her emotional fluctuations.
Jian Jin couldn't bear to watch it any longer, so she took her hand off her face and dragged Qiao Nian out, "QIAO, you haven't had dinner yet, let's go eat something first."
The purpose of Qiao Nian coming here was just to make her attitude clear to Lu Zhi, not to quarrel with him. She turned around and followed Jian Jin out.
Lu Zhi watched her leave, and at least he didn't add fuel to the fire. His eyes followed the girl all the time, without moving for a moment.
…
Outside.
Jian Jin finally pulled Qiao Nian out.
Her forehead was covered with sweat. She wiped the sweat off and said to Qiao Nian angrily and helplessly, "Don't pay attention to him. He is like this. He does whatever he wants."
She saw that Qiao Nian was still surrounded by cold air.
Jian Jin raised her eyes again and explained, "I wanted to tell you at noon, but I didn't because I was afraid you would misunderstand me. If I had known you would come over, I would have told you at that time."
"Lu Zhi didn't do anything to my uncle. He just invited my uncle to dinner and gave him a gift. The gift was just an ordinary gift."
She said to Qiao Nian a little depressed: "I didn't tell you because I thought I was with them too."
Qiao Nian had a very angry look on his face. He was leaning against the wall at the moment. He took out a chewing gum bottle from his pocket, poured a candy into his palm, took a look at it, and ate it with his head tilted back.
Suddenly he turned his head to look at Jian Jin and asked casually, "What does he want to do?"
