Xu Qian said at this time: "Qiao Dong, what you did just now has angered me. I will never forgive you. I will say it one last time. I have never liked you. If you continue to pester me, I will call the police next time."

Qiao Dong remained silent.

Seeing this, Xu Xiuwen threatened: "If I see you pestering Xu Qian again, I will break your legs! Get out now!"

With a look of fear on his face, Qiao Dong struggled to get up from the ground, then crouched down and ran along the wall.

After Qiao Dong left, Xu Qian breathed a sigh of relief.

She picked up the phone that Qiao Dong had just knocked to the ground, walked back to Xu Xiuwen and said, "Thank you, Mr. Xu."

Xu Xiuwen nodded. "You should thank Lu Xinyao. She saw you being dragged away and called me immediately. If it weren't for her, I would have already returned to school."

Xu Qian shook her head and said, "I want to thank Lu Xinyao, but I also want to thank you, Mr. Xu. If it weren't for you, I might have been killed by him—"

She paused and said seriously, "Thank you very much, Mr. Xu."

Xu Xiuwen nodded, "I'll take you back to the dormitory."

Xu Qian did not refuse.

Arriving at the dormitory building, Xu Xiuwen said, "Go up quickly, I have to go back too."

Xu Qian stood there and didn't leave.

Although she had just experienced that, she felt at ease being with Xu Xiuwen.

Now hearing that Xu Xiuwen was leaving, he suddenly felt uneasy.

She hurriedly said, "Mr. Xu, please come up with me. I'll pour you a cup of tea."

"It's not good this late."

"Mr. Xu, you saved me, but you didn't even give me a chance to thank you. I will feel guilty all night."

Xu Qian had said so much, it seemed too much for Xu Xiuwen to insist on not going forward.

Xu Xiuwen had no choice but to agree.

Seeing Xu Xiuwen nod, Xu Qian breathed a sigh of relief.

Chapter 306 It seems like he will come here often in the future

Follow Xu Qian to the second floor.

Xu Qian was just about to take out the key to open the door.

The door opened by itself.

After the door opened, Lu Xinyao was standing inside, greeting them with a smile.

Xu Xiuwen walked into the entrance hall and looked at the clean and tidy floor, feeling a little embarrassed.

The girls had mopped the floor so clean that it would have been inappropriate for him to step on it with his shoes on.

Lu Xinyao could see Xu Xiuwen's dilemma.

She immediately opened the cabinet next to her, took out a pair of brand new men's slippers, and placed them in front of Xu Xiuwen.

Xu Xiuwen was stunned, "Why are there men's slippers?"

Lu Xinyao explained with a smile: "We were worried that Mr. Xu might come over someday, so we prepared a pair in advance."

"I see." Xu Xiuwen nodded and said no more.

He put on his slippers and sat down on the sofa in the living room.

The three bedrooms were already occupied, so it was naturally difficult for Xu Xiuwen to go in.

After Xu Qian came in, she went to the kitchen to pour tea for Xu Xiuwen.

Lu Xinyao also went over to help.

Soon two people came over with teacups.

Xu Qian placed the tea in front of Xu Xiuwen, "Mr. Xu, have some tea."

Xu Xiuwen looked at the tea in front of him and laughed, "You still have the habit of drinking tea?"

Xu Qian shook her head.

Lu Xinyao explained: "Mr. Xu, none of us three drink tea, and this tea is specially prepared for you."

Xu Xiuwen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "You three girls live here, and I'm not coming. You don't have to prepare slippers and tea for me."

He thought to himself: Don't put on your shoes in a melon field, and don't adjust your hat under a plum tree.

Although he rented the house, there are three women living in it now, and they are all good-looking.

In order to avoid suspicion, Xu Xiuwen would not come here often, so there was no need to prepare slippers specially for him.

As a result, the three women not only prepared slippers, but also bought tea in anticipation of his arrival.

It seems like he will come here often in the future.

Lu Xinyao smiled gently, "Mr. Xu doesn't have to come, but we can't not prepare. It won't cost much anyway."

Xu Qian sat down on the sofa and said seriously, "Mr. Xu, I want to thank you. Sister Xinyao, I also want to thank you for calling Mr. Xu."

Xu Xiuwen took a sip of tea and said, "It's okay. It's what I should do."

Lu Xinyao smiled and said "It's okay" first.

Then he asked, "Qianqian, who was that man just now?"

Xu Xiuwen didn't say anything, but put down the cup and looked over.

Xu Qian lowered her head and hesitated, but finally said: "My father and his father are colleagues. He and I have known each other since childhood and were classmates before high school."

Lu Xinyao nodded and said softly: "Childhood sweethearts, no wonder."

Hearing this, Xu Qian seemed to be afraid that Xu Xiuwen would misunderstand her, and immediately waved her hand to deny it: "That's not the case. Although I have known him since childhood, our relationship is average, and I didn't know he liked me. I met him by chance after coming to Jinling to study, and then he kept pursuing me. I rejected him many times, but he kept pestering me. This time I moved here to get rid of his entanglement, but I didn't expect him to follow me here."

Lu Xinyao asked: "He was harassing you, so you never thought about calling the police?"

Xu Qian shook her head and said, "Although he has been pestering me, he has never done anything to me. He may have seen Mr. Xu tonight and was stimulated, so he did that."

Lu Xinyao really wanted to know what “doing that” meant.

But thinking that Mr. Xu was there too, she didn't feel comfortable asking.

She planned to ask Xu Qian again in private.

Xu Xiuwen suddenly asked: "Since you rejected him, why did you come downstairs to see him so late?"

When Xu Qian heard Xu Xiuwen's question, she looked up.

Seeing Xu Xiuwen’s calm eyes.

She felt inexplicably aggrieved.

She explained: "I said I wouldn't go downstairs to see him, but he said if I didn't go downstairs, he would come up and knock on the door. I didn't want to disturb Sister Xinyao and Xiaomi's rest, so I went downstairs to see him. I didn't want to see him."

Lu Xinyao asked curiously: "Qianqian, why didn't you tell your dad? Didn't you say that your dad and his dad are colleagues?"

Xu Qian said: "It's useless. Although my dad and his dad are colleagues, they are not on the same path, and Qiao Dong's dad is the factory director."

Hearing the word "factory director" again, Xu Xiuwen couldn't help but ask, "What factory?"

Xu Qian looked at Xu Xiuwen and said, "Mr. Xu, you should know Guangming Winery, right?"

Xu Xiuwen nodded.

Guangming Winery is the winery in Xu Xiuwen’s hometown. As the name suggests, it is located in Guangming. It was once a famous winery in China.

In the 1980s, Guangming Liquor was almost a household name in Anhui Province and reached its peak of glory. It was also extremely famous in the country.

There were many catchy sayings at that time: "Travel across the country, Guangming wine is still the best to drink", "A cup of old Guangming wine can express the love of several generations!", "Smoke across the river, drink Mingguang wine", etc.

These rhymes, which are familiar to many people, are enough to illustrate the status of Guangming Liquor in the liquor industry in the 1980s.

But the good times did not last long. In the late 1990s, Guangming Winery was gradually dragged into a quagmire of operational difficulties due to severe internal friction, chaotic internal management and poor operations. Then it went from bad to worse and its debt became increasingly serious.

Finally, it went bankrupt due to policy at the end of 2005 and was acquired by a group in Wenzhou, Zhejiang Province, but it still failed to develop and was finally acquired by the leading liquor company in the province.

Xu Xiuwen is well aware of the development of Guangming Winery, after all, it is an enterprise in his hometown.

Xu Qian said, "Qiao Dong's father is the director of Guangming Winery. He has always been very powerful in the factory. My father is a small director there. I don't want my father to lose his job."

Lu Xinyao sighed and said, "Qianqian is so pitiful. I really love you."

Even though Xu Qian was almost demolished, she was not very sad, but when she heard Lu Xinyao's words, she felt aggrieved.

She burst into tears.

Lu Xinyao was also surprised, but she immediately sat over, hugged Xu Qian, and comforted her with kind words.

Xu Xiuwen suddenly said, "Xu Qian, if I remember correctly, Guangming Winery declared bankruptcy last December."

Xu Qian said "hmm".

"I remember selling it to a large group in Wenzhou, Zhejiang Province. Didn't they replace the factory director with one of their own after they took over?"

Xu Qian was stunned and asked, "What big group? No, I heard from my dad that the winery employees agreed to bankruptcy and restructuring last September, and the government has been cooperating to attract investment, but no one is willing to take over, so the winery has never been sold. The situation of the winery is very bad now, and many people have not received their wages for a long time, including my dad."

After hearing what Xu Qian said, Xu Xiuwen's eyes widened.
