My friend's uncle took a fancy to me

Lu Xiaoqiao entered the house and found that both roommates were not at home.

As soon as I put down my luggage, I heard the phone ringing in my bag. I fumbled for the phone in my bag and saw my aunt's caller ID flashing on the screen.

Slide open the answer screen: "Auntie!"

"Xiao Qiao! How come you moved out without saying a word? I told you to ask Liu Ye to send you off tomorrow."

"Didn't Zheng Yan tell you?" She cried so miserably that Lu Xiaoqiao thought she would exaggerate and accuse her.

"No, when I came back, the child said he was tired and went to bed early."

It seems she is not stupid. She had a fight with her in-laws before she even married. It would not sound good if it were told to others. She probably also wanted to save face. Lu Xiaoqiao did not want her aunt to worry about her affairs: "My friend happened to be driving by there. He knew I was moving and thought I had a lot of things, so he offered to help me move some first. Since everyone came, I moved in."

My aunt was a little skeptical: "Which of your friends has a car, male or female?"

"Lin Lin's brother, please don't make random guesses. He has a girlfriend." The aunt knew Lin Lin, but she didn't know her true family background. Because of Lin Lin's low-key attitude, she thought she was just an ordinary employee in her company.

After explaining for a long time, my aunt finally stopped questioning: "You took the dog away too. Hey, this is my fault."

Originally, I saw that the old lady liked the puppy next door, so I thought of buying one to cheer her up. But who would have thought that she was allergic to dog hair.

When he found out that the old lady was allergic to dog hair, the uncle-in-law got really angry at her and threatened to throw the puppy out. Lu Xiaoqiao, who was about to move out, asked for the puppy back: "Well, I'll bring it along."

"That's good. Just be careful when you live outside. Come to my place for dinner every Monday like your sister Na." He gave a bunch of instructions before hanging up the phone.

After Lu Xiaoqiao finished the call, he carried the pet cage at the door to the middle of the living room and carefully checked the condition of Tuanzi in the cage. The little guy was very well-behaved and had not cried at all in the car just now. Seeing that it was in good spirits, he poured it some water and went to pack his luggage with peace of mind.

There are three rooms in the house. The master bedroom with a private bathroom is for Zhao Jia, the oldest of the three, while Lu Xiaoqiao and another roommate live in the guest bedroom. The monthly rent is 3,400 yuan, and the three of them share it equally. Zhao Jiafei insisted on taking the extra 100 yuan, saying that she should get more since she lives in the master bedroom, and 100 yuan is a bit too little.

Lu Xiaoqiao dragged her luggage into her room. There was a window in her room. Standing by the window, she could see the street outside the community. When it was quiet, she could even hear the voice announcer of the payment code of the vegetable vendor across the street downstairs. Although it was a bit noisy because it was close to the street, she liked this kind of fireworks atmosphere.

Old communities also have their advantages. The surrounding daily supporting facilities are very complete and you can buy anything you want. There is also a night market not far from the community, which is even more lively.

When they were almost done cleaning up, the two roommates came back. When they heard the door open, Lu Xiaoqiao walked out of the room, startling the two who had just entered. Zhao Jia, who was walking in front, said, "Oh my god, Xiaoqiao, you are giving me a surprise."

"I sent you a WeChat message, but you didn't see it? So, were you surprised?"

Qin Momo, who was walking behind, poked her head out, her face full of joy and excitement: "Xiao Qiao, you moved in early?"

……

The three of them came to the living room. Zhao Jia and Qin Momo sat on the sofa holding Tuanzi, looking at Lu Xiaoqiao who was sitting on a small stool opposite the coffee table. They ate the leftover cold noodles they had brought back from the night market and recounted what happened in the evening.

"She didn't dare tell your aunt, because she might whisper in Liu Ye's ear that something is wrong." Zhao Jia and Lu Xiaoqiao are colleagues, and they know Zheng Yan's personality.

Lu Xiaoqiao tied up the box of cold noodles with the plastic bag it had been in and threw it into the trash can next to the coffee table. "She used to be like a blower. If she suddenly stopped blowing because I beat her, I would look down on her."

"What did Liu Ye like about her? She's just average looking, and her personality isn't very pleasant. Is it because her dad is the vice president of a bank branch?"

"I don't know what Liu Ye thinks, but my aunt's mother-in-law must be upset about this."

Zhao Jia nodded and said, "It's hard to say. Men are sometimes much more realistic than women."

Around ten o'clock, the three chatted for a few more minutes and then went to wash up and go to bed.

……

The next day.

When Lu Xiaoqiao and Zhao Jia got up, Qin Momo got up early to go to work because her company was far from where she lived.

The two of them bought a pancake to eat downstairs, and then hurried to the bus to the subway station. The three of them had agreed when they rented the house that they would buy breakfast from Monday to Friday, and cook their own dinner on weekdays and all day on weekends.

On the first day of work after moving into my new home, I got up half an hour later than when I lived at my aunt's house, but still arrived ten minutes earlier.

As soon as I arrived at the company, I saw Sister Sun from the design department chatting with several colleagues.

"I'm so envious! Jiangheng Group offers the best treatment in Hangzhou!"

"I heard that this time the team building is held at their own five-star resort, which even has a helipad and a golf course."

"Otherwise, how could he be the richest man? Hey! Sister Sun, your brother was able to join Jiangheng Group and is now the deputy manager. He belongs to the leadership class. Does he usually meet with their president?"

Seeing everyone looking at her, Sister Sun lifted her hair, unable to tell whether she was proud or modest. "It's not that easy to see the president. You can only see him at the annual meeting. My brother is the deputy manager, but he doesn't interact with the president at work. After all, there are several layers of leaders above him."

"I heard that Jiang Heng's CEO is very handsome and is still single."

At this point, a young woman from the Finance Department raised her hand and said, "I know, I know. He gave a speech at our school when I was in college. He was really handsome in person, tall and good-looking."

"I really want to join Jiang Heng, but unfortunately with my intelligence, I can only work as a gatekeeper. I'm so jealous of those who work there."

Who wouldn’t be jealous of the employees who can enter Jiangheng Group? Looking around, no company in the entire Hangzhou can compare with their salary and benefits.

As a leader, Zhou Qizhen has far surpassed the value created by his father in recent years with his keen insight and decisive decision-making.

Zhao Jia's workstation was not here. Lu Xiaoqiao walked to her workstation and reached out to take out her mobile phone and charger from her bag. She had just arrived at her new home yesterday and didn't know that she had to press a button on the socket strip to power it on. At this moment, her mobile phone only had 5% battery left.

As soon as I plugged the mobile phone into the socket, Lin Lin ran in with her 7 cm high heels.

"Oh! I'm almost late. What a nasty Monday!"

Lu Xiaoqiao glanced at the high heels on Lin Lin's feet and said, "Don't wear such high heels next time. You're not short."

"But it makes your legs look longer." Lin Lin didn't continue the topic, but glanced at Lu Xiaoqiao's hands and forearms. "Oh my god! You said it wasn't serious, but there's bleeding in some places."

After that, he took out a tube of ointment from his backpack: "Here, scar removal ointment. I brought it back from my last trip abroad. It's very effective."

"Not really! I applied aloe vera gel. I found that my body has been upgraded since I met you."

"Oh no! No, what if it leaves a scar?"

Knowing her friend's good intentions, Lu Xiaoqiao took the ointment with a smile.

Seeing that she accepted it, Lin Lin finally felt relieved. She looked up at the people in front who were still gossiping and asked, "What are they talking about?"

"We're talking about your uncle."
