My friend's uncle took a fancy to me

After watching her until she disappeared from his sight, Zhou Qizhengfang turned around and walked into the building with some reluctance.

He returned to the office, neither resting nor rushing to work, but sitting on the sofa and thinking about Lu Xiaoqiao's expression just now.

Although she didn't say anything, her expression showed what she was thinking. She felt that he couldn't even peel a hazelnut properly.

Just after lunch break, Lu Xiaoqiao turned on the computer to prepare for work when she received a photo sent by Zhou Qizhen.

When you open the picture, you will see a dozen whole peeled hazelnuts neatly placed on the brown desk.

Lu Xiaoqiao couldn't help but laugh secretly, thinking that he was so competitive!

Immediately afterwards, the other party sent another message.

Z【The hazelnuts are delicious, thank you.】

Lu Xiaoqiao: "You're welcome, Mr. Zhou, as long as you like it. [Happy]"

As long as he likes to eat it, I'm fine. I was worried that people would dislike it before.

Z【It’s so delicious that I can’t bear to eat it.】

Lu Xiaoqiao: "Mr. Zhou, just eat it without worry! I'll have my mom send some more by courier in a few days."

Z【Will it be troublesome?】

Lu Xiaoqiao: [No, express delivery is very convenient. As long as you like it, it’s fine [grin]]

She has told her mother more than once that the elders in her friends' families are very kind to her and that she likes the specialties of her hometown. Her mother would probably be very happy to know this.

Because of a few messages, Zhou Qi was in a happy mood the whole afternoon. Although he didn't show anything on his face, his attitude during the meeting was obviously more talkative than usual, which made all the executives in the meeting room relax.

When I got off work in the evening, the weather suddenly cooled down a bit. It was so hot during the day that I wanted to take out my short-sleeved shirts, but now it’s so cold that I want to put on another coat.

When Lu Xiaoqiao and Zhao Jia arrived home, just as they were about to open the door, they saw the door opposite being opened from the inside. Zhao Zhizhi walked out, hugged Zhao Jia, and said weakly, "Baby! I have a cold!"

Hearing his nickname, Lu Xiaoqiao got goosebumps all over her body and rubbed her arms together: "Hey! That's enough. I don't even need to eat dinner."

Zhao Jia raised her hand and touched his head: "Do you have a high fever? Have you been to the hospital?"

Zhao Zhizhi continued to hold her tightly, "I went and got some medicine. I just took it."

"Xiao Qiao, please go inside first. I'll go over and keep him company for a while."

"Okay, Sister Jia, will you come back to stay here tonight?" She said with a mischievous wink.

Zhao Jia smiled and hit her: "What do you think?"

Although the two have known each other for a long time and have been in love for two years, Zhao Zhizhi said that as long as he is not able to give the person he likes a safe haven, he will not take the last step. He said he is afraid that the person he loves will regret it.

In his own words, if you can't afford it, it means you can't afford it either.

"Then I'll make some porridge and we'll eat together later."

After everyone finished their meal, Lu Xiaoqiao cleaned up the kitchen, washed up, and then lay on the bed to check her phone.

It was almost nine o'clock. I remembered what Qin Momo said yesterday about working part-time at a bar. After thinking about it, I was still a little worried, so I sent her a message. After waiting for about ten minutes, there was no reply from the other party. I thought she was probably busy and didn't see it, so I called her directly. But the ringtone rang for a long time and no one answered. Lu Xiaoqiao was a little anxious.

Suddenly, I remembered that Momo said she went there with Jinling that day, so I quickly dialed Jinling's cell phone number. Fortunately, the two of them left their contact information with each other when they went to the temple together.

The ringtone rang about ten times before it was picked up. As soon as the call was connected, I heard deafening music and the noise of a bustling crowd coming from the other end of the phone.

Without waiting for the other end to speak, Lu Xiaoqiao asked anxiously: "Hey! Jin Ling, is Momo with you? I just sent her a message but she didn't reply. I called her but she didn't answer. You guys..."

"Beep!" The phone was hung up.

I don’t know if she hung up on me on purpose or if it was an accident. Just when I was about to call her again, I received a message from her.

【Come here quickly, Momo is in some trouble. 】

Seeing the message sent by Jin Ling, Lu Xiaoqiao's heart beat uncontrollably faster. While sending her a message asking what happened and if there was any danger, he ran to the opposite room.

Regardless of whether the neighbors were asleep or not, they would come out and scold her for disturbing others, banging on Zhao Zhizhi's door.

"Jia Jie, Zhao Zhizhi, both of you, please come out quickly."

Just as Zhao Jia was about to go back home, she heard a deafening knock on the door outside her room. Zhao Zhizhi, who had just fallen asleep, was also woken up: "Who is it?"

Zhao Jia took the clothes placed beside the bed and said, "It seems to be Xiao Qiao. Go to sleep quickly. I'm going back too."

When he opened the door, he saw Lu Xiaoqiao standing outside with disheveled hair, looking so anxious that he seemed to want to tear the door down if he didn't open it.

"What's wrong, Xiao Qiao?"

"Jia Jie, something happened to Momo!"

"What's wrong with Momo?" Zhao Zhizhi walked out of the room after hearing the voice.

Lu Xiaoqiao explained what happened, and they all changed their clothes and took a taxi to Momo's part-time job.

When they arrived at the location, Zhao Zhizhi paid the bill, opened the car door and ran into the bar, with Zhao Jia and Lu Xiaoqiao following closely behind him.

Lu Xiaoqiao had never been to a bar before. She walked through a corridor before entering. As soon as she entered, her eardrums were hit by the shrill music. The lights inside were dim, the crowd was surging, and the noise, clinking of glasses, and cheers were intertwined.

Jin Ling later sent a message saying that she and Momo were in the booth. It took a lot of effort for them to get through the noisy crowd to the relatively quiet booth area.

Lu Xiaoqiao anxiously scanned the entire booth area and finally saw Qin Momo near the bar. Seeing that she was still standing there safely, he finally felt relieved.

Qin Momo stood there with her head down. On the table in front of her was a tower of wine glasses, with one hundred yuan in cash on each layer. The lower she went, the more money she had, which meant there was more wine.

These are the commissions she earned today. She thought she could get so much money by selling so much wine on the first day. However, because she accidentally stained the other person's girlfriend's bag, she had to drink all the wine in front of her today as an apology.

She had been stuck here for almost half an hour. It was clearly his girlfriend who bumped into her and caused her to spill the wine. Even after she apologized, it didn't work. Later, she said she didn't want today's commission, but the other party said she had to pay for the bag, 30,000 yuan, which she couldn't afford.

The doctor had clearly told her not to drink alcohol, but if she drank, she should still have time to rush to the hospital for gastric lavage.

At this time, a man in a burgundy shirt sitting in the middle of the booth said slowly, "If you don't drink, the compensation won't be this way later. You'll have to pay for my girlfriend's bag separately."

After hearing what he said, Qin Momo finally reached out to the top of the wine glass tower and was about to pick it up.

"Wait a minute."

Hearing Zhao Zhizhi's voice, she turned her head to look at him, and saw her two roommates standing behind him, asking them why they were here.

Lu Xiaoqiao and Zhao Jia hurriedly walked over to her, held her hands, and used their body language to tell her not to be afraid. At this moment, Qin Momo was more afraid of getting her friends involved.

Her broken life was not afraid of being broken even more, but they were all good people, and there was no need for them to get involved with a group of rich second-generations whom they could not afford to offend because of her.
