Quick wear: Boss, he always likes her

Chapter 338 Covet 8

Zhou Jueming was confused.

He had almost finished his meal when he suddenly received a message from Lan Qi, asking him which restaurant nearby was good.

Why didn’t you say you wanted to go out to eat?

Don’t you want to treat us?

Well, not really.

After thinking for a while, Zhou Jueming sent a message tentatively, "Are you eating alone?"

Lan Qi replied quickly, "No."

It seemed that someone suddenly came to see him. Zhou Jueming didn't think much about it and quickly sent over several restaurants recommended by company employees.

.

Lan Qi briefly read the message and handed the phone to Ting Qiao who was standing next to him, "Which one do you want to go to?"

Be polite and courteous.

He wouldn't deliberately use the issue of eating to discourage her.

Tingqiao didn't take his phone and glanced at it casually, "Let's go to the third one. I want to eat seafood."

Come to think of it, the places she had lived in the past were not near the sea, so she had basically never eaten anything from the sea.

"Okay." Lan Qi immediately clicked on the navigation.

Tingqiao followed, holding up the parasol he brought with him.

Although she is different from ordinary vampires, she still has a physiological aversion to sunlight.

For example, those newly transformed or weaker vampires would dry up after just a few minutes in the sun.

The two vampires that Tingqiao met at the dinner were recently transformed. They probably sucked a lot of human blood, and their strength was almost the same as that of ordinary vampires.

The human blood they suck has reached the level of plundering lives, so there is such a bonus.

However, the reason why she kicked those two people back to the human race was not because of this.

After all, Lan Qi is under her protection now, and there are actually some short-sighted fellows who want to take a bite... She certainly can't tolerate that.

.

The seafood restaurant is nearby and we got there quickly.

After ordering the dishes, while waiting for them to be served, Lan Qi glanced at Ting Qiao who was sitting opposite him, tapped his fingers lightly, and said in a light tone: "You said you had something to talk to me about?"

His face is always cold, but that doesn't affect his handsomeness, or rather it makes him look more provocative.

However, vampires still place more emphasis on strength.

Tingqiao looked at him with her chin in her hand and said without thinking: "I plan to be your bodyguard."

This is much easier than being a teacher, and what needs to be done is also simple.

Lan Qi: “……?”

He suspected he had heard it wrongly, "What?"

Tingqiao repeated, "I want to be your bodyguard."

She helped him get rid of the two trash who coveted his blood, which was already protecting his safety.

The reason why she asked him... of course, was because being a bodyguard officially was more fun than protecting silently, and she had even bought the sunglasses.

Yes, Tingqiao has watched some TV series recently...

After confirming her words, Lan Qi looked at her deeply and said, "I don't need a bodyguard."

Using such a poor reason to approach him?

Ting Qiao was a little anxious, "I am better than your bodyguards. If you don't believe me, call them all to fight me."

If she loses the competition for the position, she would be sorry for all the powerful vampires, werewolves and liches who died at her hands before.

Lan Qi was silent for two seconds, "...There is no need for that."

Being rejected just like that, Tingqiao was very upset, "Why?"

Isn't this the question she should ask? Lan Qi stared at her, "I think you should ask - why do you want to be my... bodyguard?"

In fact, he already knew it clearly, and asking her this question now was just telling her that he had seen through her thoughts a long time ago, and she should be tactful and give up this path.

Tingqiao put himself in the shoes of other people who were bodyguards, "Uh, for the salary?"

Lan Qi: "...I think you are not short of money."

The inheritance left by Lin Ji was not only the amount in the bank, but also the shares of his companies, which had a lot of dividends every year. Before Lin Ji left, he arranged for a suitable agent, so his companies would not go bankrupt so quickly.

Tingqiao: “It seems so.”

She thought that she couldn’t tell him about the vampires so early... She also wanted to introduce Lan Qi into the vampire clan - so that she could teach him as his teacher.

Tingqiao quickly found a suitable reason, "Actually it's because of the will... I have to take the responsibility of taking care of you."

Lan Qi was still staring at her, but his eyes had darkened unconsciously, like a dark bottomless pool of water. "I'm an adult now, I don't need anyone's care."

His tone was already somewhat unfriendly, mixed with coldness, "Even if you don't follow the latter rule, the distribution of the estate will not be changed."

It's best to do nothing.

Don't come near him again.

Lan Qi glanced away in annoyance, and felt that the lunch should be over.

Oh no... he stepped on a landmine and he was angry.

Although Tingqiao realized it, she did not show any guilt.

She had never had this kind of emotion since she was born.

Since this excuse was not good, she thought about it and quickly made up another one, "Actually, too many people have been bothering me recently, so I want to be your bodyguard for a while and have some peace and quiet."

The first sentence was indeed true. In the eyes of others, she did get a lot of money.

After the funeral, many people came up to her, some were straightforward and asked for support, while others hoped to marry her and "help" her manage the property... Of course, she beat up anyone she didn't like.

But even so, those people still came to her and annoyed her so much that she moved to a new home.

Lan Qi: "...Who disturbed you?"

He felt that she really knew how to seize the opportunity. When he was about to lose his patience and leave, she deliberately said this to soften his heart.

Tingqiao: "I don't remember their names..."

She told Lan Qi about all those people's suggestions, such as self-recommendation and business marriage...

Lan Qi looked at her again, his scrutinizing gaze falling on her face.

That doesn't sound like an excuse.

After Lin Ji died, she had no one to protect her, so naturally many people would covet the money in her hands.

So this was her real purpose, to seek his protection? Nothing else?

Lan Qi looked at her coldly, thinking it was impossible.

She was clearly showing weakness on purpose to win his sympathy, and then...

But despite this, even though he had seen through her thoughts, he couldn't refuse.

Tingqiao blinked.

What? This guy has been staring at her, why doesn’t he give a clear answer?

She has many other reasons to say.

If all else fails, she could send a vampire to attack him at night, and wait for him to panic before she could protect him... Of course, she would be careful not to let him notice the inhuman presence.

Lan Qi could feel that he was still very calm.

There was no impact at all.

...Maybe he has a good heart.

No matter who is faced with this situation, he will help.

So - Lan Qi finally said: "Okay, you can be my bodyguard for the time being."

He put careful emphasis on the word 'bodyguard', hoping she would understand what he meant.

He didn't have any extra thoughts about her.
