Chapter 24: He doesn't like women?

Views:

It has been a week since the marriage snatching, Tian Martian seems to have become calm again. There was no report about snatching a marriage in Interstellar news. Everything seems to be working fine.

Lan Jue also resumed his life, running his Zeus jewelry store.

Recently, the business has been relatively deserted, and there are few customers. However, for jewelry stores, too many customers are never needed.

"Ding ding ding." There was a crisp sound like a silver bell, the store door was pushed open, and a man in a casual suit came in from outside.

Xiuxiu saluted the visitor with a smile, and invited him inside, Ke'er obediently held a glass of warm water.

"Why are you here? Let me tell you first, there is no discount for buying jewelry." Lan Jue leaned on his chair, looked at the visitor lazily and said.

The gourmet took the warm water from Ke'er's hand, sat on the chair opposite Lan, and said angrily, "Look at your stinginess. Last time you were at the sommelier, you still haven't paid for the drink."

"Huh, is there? Why don't I remember." Lan Jue looked at the gourmet in surprise.

The gourmet said disdainfully: "It turns out that you nobles will also renege on debts."

Lan Jue pouted, "Tell me, why are you looking for me?"

The gourmet raised his eyebrows, "I'm looking for you, so there must be something wrong?"

Lan Jue smiled and said: "With your cold personality, you wouldn't come if you have nothing to do. You've been nestled in your little house all day and refused to go out."

The gourmet sighed and said, "It seems that you don't welcome me very much."

Lan Jue flicked his fingers and looked at him with a smile, "No one would welcome a debt collector, right?"

The gourmet snorted, "You don't owe me money. I just came to inform you that a whole bluefin tuna will be delivered in a few days. I don't know if someone is in the mood to eat it."

"A whole strip?" Lan Jue's voice rose an octave almost instantly, and his eyes suddenly lit up as he watched the gourmet.

Of course he knew how rare a whole bluefin tuna was. This is not a product of Mars, but comes from the deep sea, the parent star of human origin.

The gourmet stood up and said: "Okay, I'm leaving. I just salvaged it, and it will be delivered in about three days, and then it will be ready to eat in two days. Let's set it in five days. It's still at the sommelier's place, He has a big place there, so it’s easy to use it.”

"well."

"The fish is big, you can bring your friends." The gourmet said as he walked out. Xiu Xiu kept sending him out of the door.

"Boss, take us there." Ke'er was lying on the counter in front of Lan Jue with a coquettish look, pouted.

"Ke'er." Xiu Xiu called out with some reproach.

Ke'er stuck out her tongue and ran to her side, "We won't embarrass the boss, what's wrong with going with him?"

Xiuxiu grabbed her and whispered in her ear: "The boss is not in a good mood recently."

"Dididi!" Lan Jue looked down at his interstellar communicator, which showed an unfamiliar number.

connected.

"No. 37, Huayin Street, Luoyun Tea House." A pleasant but cold voice came from the communicator.

Lan Jue was stunned at first, but soon recognized who the owner of the voice was. His face couldn't help changing, "Okay, I'll be there right away."

While speaking, he stood up and hurriedly walked out.

Looking at the back of him leaving in a hurry, Ke'er's beautiful eyes showed a trace of suspicion, "The boss seems to be not quite right recently."

Xiuxiu's eyes showed a bit of worry, "Although the boss is still the same as before these few days, I can feel that his originally warm aura has become a lot more melancholy, and something must have happened."

Ke'er asked suspiciously: "With the boss's ability, what can make him unhappy? Sister Xiuxiu, why don't you go back and ask the boss? He loves you the most."

Xiu Xiu Qiao blushed, "Don't talk nonsense."

Ke'er giggled, and said in a low voice: "Don't tell me you don't like the boss? Every time you look at the boss, you look very different. Only the boss, a stupid guy, doesn't notice it."

Xiu Xiu smiled bitterly, and said: "You underestimate him too much. You can feel it, but won't he feel it? He just did it on purpose."

Ke'er was stunned, "Why? Sister Xiuxiu, you are so beautiful and kind."

Xiu Xiu shook his head, "I don't know either, but, do you still remember? When the boss first opened the store here, he looked very gloomy every day, and he seemed to have a knot in his heart."

Ke'er lowered her voice a little more, and said mysteriously: "Tell me, could the boss be that one?"

Xiu Xiu asked suspiciously, "Which one?"

Ke'er said: "Our two beauties dangle in front of him every day, and he doesn't even have any desire. This only shows that he doesn't like women!"

"Ah?" Xiu Xiu stared blankly at Ke'er, all the blood on her pretty face faded.

"Ah Choo!" Lan Jue rubbed his nose, frowned, and murmured to himself, "Who is speaking ill of me?"

Huayin Street is located in the west of Tianhuo City, a constant distance from Tianhuo Avenue in the city center.

Lan Jue frowned subconsciously as he got on the public suspension vehicle.

His psychological endurance is far beyond that of ordinary people, not to mention, three years have finally freed him from that pain. It has been a week since the kidnapping incident, and his mood has finally calmed down gradually. But at this moment, the interstellar communication just now brought him back to that night.

The grief had been suppressed, but the troubles of that night were far from over.

However, when he heard that voice from the interstellar communication, his heartbeat still couldn't help but speed up a bit. It's not because the most intimate thing between a man and a woman happened between him and her a week ago, but because the voices are extremely similar.

Therefore, he rushed out almost subconsciously, not even caring about his former elegance.

Luoyun Tea House is not big, but it is exquisite. A typical Shangyuan ancient Chinese-style building, located on the first floor of an office building.

A waiter in a long milky white cheongsam led him to an elegant private room.

As soon as he entered the door, Lan Jue's footsteps involuntarily paused. The waiter behind him has quietly closed the door.

The private room is not big and can only accommodate two people.

It was still the long white dress she wore when she left that day, her black hair was neatly combed into a ponytail, revealing her smooth and fair forehead. Instead of looking up at him, she lowered her head and silently filled the purple sand pot in front of her.

The purple sand pot is not big, with a raised plum blossom pattern on it, and the dark red patina on the surface is simple and atmospheric, which is unforgettable at first sight.

The dark red tea with a hint of gold was poured out, and the faint tea fragrance immediately filled the small quiet room. It gives people a more peaceful atmosphere.

Lan Jue just stood there, looking at that elegant person, even though he could only see her long eyelashes, but at this moment, he only felt that his heart was sinking. Just like when he first saw her.
