My friend's uncle took a fancy to me

Zhou Qizheng smiled helplessly: "Okay, go up and tell me when you get in."

"Well, you should go back quickly and have some rest."

He watched her go up reluctantly until he received her WeChat message telling him that she had already entered the door, then he turned around and got in the car and left.

As soon as Lu Xiaoqiao entered the room, Zhao Jia, who had been waiting for a long time, laughed and teased her.

"Hey! Are you back? Tell me about your feelings about love!"

"Hey! How did Sister Jia guess that?"

Zhao Jia rolled her eyes. "You've been gone for hours, and the car that picked up Mr. Zhou has been waiting downstairs for hours. Do you still need to guess?"

"Tell me quickly, what did Mr. Zhou say that made you change your mind and agree now?"

Lu Xiaoqiao was a little shy and didn't dare to bring up the cheesy love words Zhou Qizhen had said to her.

Just a few simple words.

After hearing this, Zhao Jia looked at Lu Xiaoqiao and said, "They're so sincere. If you don't mind, you should give them a chance."

Lu Xiaoqiao smiled and put the barbecue she had just brought back on the coffee table for her to eat.

Zhao Jia flipped through the food and asked, "What's going on? Did you two pack up everything you didn't eat?"

Lu Xiaoqiao shook her head: "No, he ordered it specially for you."

"This is definitely an attempt to bribe us!"

Zhao Jia exaggeratedly said, "Xiao Qiao, from now on I will be Mr. Zhou's lackey. Please bear with me. The main thing is that he is really good at doing things!"

Zhao Jia took a skewer of squid, took a bite, and asked, "Why did you two decide to go out for barbecue? Will he be able to eat it?"

"Yes, I think he likes it, especially the Chiba tofu."

"Oh... you love to take advantage of me! Mr. Zhou just brought you back. Did you two have sex?"

Lu Xiaoqiao didn't understand what Zhao Jia meant: "Which one?"

Zhao Jia winked and said, "It's just a kiss!"

You've already successfully confessed your feelings and confirmed your relationship, why don't you seek some benefits?

I really want to know, when this seemingly cold-faced boss kisses the girl he likes, does he kiss with his eyes open or closed?

After Zhao Jia finished speaking, Lu Xiaoqiao's face turned red. Just when she didn't know how to reply to her, her cell phone rang. She saw that it was Zhou Qizhen.

"After being apart for a while, he called again!"

Lu Xiaoqiao's cheeks flushed. She ignored her teasing and turned to run into the room.

I swiped the phone and answered: "Hello! Are you home?"

"Well, I forgot to ask you just now, what time do you go to work in the morning? I'll drive to pick you up."

This was the first time the two of them had spoken on the phone, and a deep, magnetic male voice came from the other end of the phone.

Thinking of the question Zhao Jia had just asked, her cheeks turned red again.

"You don't have to answer it. You just came back from a business trip. Have a good rest."

"I'm not just talking about tomorrow. From now on, as long as I'm not on a business trip, I'll pick you up every day."

"Don't bother. Your home is close to the company, and you drove back to pick me up. There's traffic on the way. It's very convenient for me to take the subway. It's faster than driving during rush hour."

What Lu Xiaoqiao said was indeed true, so Zhou Qizhen did not insist any more. Finally, the two of them made an appointment to go out for dinner after get off work the next day.

……

At noon the next day.

Chenxin staff canteen.

Zhao Jia was stunned when she saw the food Lu Xiaoqiao had prepared.

"Xiao Qiao, are you trying to lose weight? Why are you eating so little, and it's all vegetarian food."

Lu Xiaoqiao said with a smile, "No way, eating only vegetarian food won't help you lose weight! I just want to eat something light today."

In fact, she really wanted to eat meat, but the money she had had to last until the next paycheck, and she also had to treat Zhou Qizhen to dinner tonight, so she had to be frugal!

"I was shocked. I thought you were just in a relationship, but you brought up your idol baggage."

"Who's in love?"

Lin Lin took the meal tray and sat next to Lu Xiaoqiao.

"Xiao Qiao..."

As Zhao Jia opened her mouth, Lu Xiaoqiao kicked her under the table, and then signaled her with his eyes not to speak.

Only then did he realize the "strange" relationship between Lin Lin and her sister's boyfriend. Was this something even Lin Lin wanted to hide?

"I mean, Xiao Qiao should have a relationship!"

Just as the three of them started eating, Lu Xiaoqiao's cell phone rang.

She marked Zhou Qizhen's incoming call number as Mr. Z.

He glanced at Lin Lin who was gnawing on chicken wings.

Lu Xiaoqiao answered the phone with a guilty conscience, whispering in her ear, "Hello!"

"Have you had lunch yet?"

"eating."

"I'm ready to eat too. Do you want to come and eat with me? I'll ask Secretary Ding to pick you up."

At this time, Lin Lin glanced in her direction. Lu Xiaoqiao quickly stood up and asked them to eat first. She pretended that the person on the other end of the phone was a customer and went to a deserted place to answer the call.

After Lu Xiaoqiao left, Lin Lin whispered to Zhao Jia, "Is Xiaoqiao really in love? Why doesn't she sound like a client?"

Zhao Jia smiled and said, "What if she is in love?"

Lin Lin said rudely, "Humph! If you want to date Xiao Qiao, you have to get past me. Not just any young boy can get Xiao Qiao. If you don't notify me or can't get past me, I'll break his legs."

Zhao Jia suppressed a smile and said, "Okay, just remember what you said today. As long as you dare to fight, we won't stop you."

……

Lu Xiaoqiao thought that they had an appointment to have dinner together in the evening, so she did not accept Zhou Qizhen's invitation at noon.

But when it was almost time to get off work, she was notified that she had to work overtime. Lu Xiaoqiao had no choice but to send an apologetic message to Zhou Qizhen saying that she would cancel the appointment.

Lu Xiaoqiao: [I have to work overtime today, so I can't have dinner with you.]

Z: [It's okay. What time do you finish? I'll take you home.]

Only then did Lu Xiaoqiao realize the benefits of having a boyfriend. No matter how late it was, there was always someone responsible for taking her home safely.

There were four design groups in total, and only she and Sister Sun's group worked overtime, so Zhao Jia left work first. If it was too late, she would probably have to take a taxi home.

With Zhou Qizhen's guarantee, Lu Xiaoqiao stayed and worked with peace of mind.

When it was almost over at nine o'clock in the evening, Zhao Jia called to ask her how long it would take and whether she wanted to be picked up. Lu Xiaoqiao said that Zhou Qizhen would take her home, and hung up the phone amid Zhao Jia's teasing.

She put down her phone and just looked up, she saw a young man walking towards her.

The person who came was Sister Sun’s younger brother, Sun Han.

"Xiao Qiao, are you working overtime today too?"

Lu Xiaoqiao heard him greeting her as if he knew her very well. She said nothing, but politely chuckled and replied with a single word: "Yeah."

Despite her coldness, Sun Han did not leave. Instead, he pulled a chair from the nearby workstation and sat next to her.

Lu Xiaoqiao frowned slightly at his behavior, but she couldn't chase him away since he didn't say anything.

Within two minutes, he started chattering non-stop as if he had opened a box of chatterboxes.

From bragging to testing.

"I came here specifically to pick up my sister from get off work. Our company is conveniently located here. I heard that your rent has doubled since Jiang Heng moved here. If I get promoted to a higher position at Jiang Heng, I'll get a housing subsidy if I buy a house in the future."

"Xiao Qiao, you're not from Hangzhou, are you? I heard from my sister that your family is from the Northeast. Are the winters there really cold? Why did you come to Hangzhou when you were a teenager..."

"Xiao Qiao, when you get married and buy a house, will your aunt buy you one in Hangzhou?"

Lu Xiaoqiao: “……?”

Now she finally understood why the two sisters were so keen on her. Even though she had rejected them several times, they still didn't give up and kept coming to her to test her again and again.

Including today's overtime, she suspected that it was Sister Sun's doing to create opportunities for Sun Han.

Ha! So he wants to be a Phoenix Man and use Lu Xiaoqiao as a cushion?
