My friend's uncle took a fancy to me

After hearing what he said, Lu Xiaoqiao suddenly sat up from the bed.

"Ah? You're back? So soon? Are you done with your work?"

Zhou Qizheng was a little unhappy after hearing this: "Why? You don't want me to come back?"

"I hope so, of course I don't. I'm afraid that you coming back so soon will delay my work."

When Zhou Qizhen heard her say the word "hope", a satisfied smile flashed across his eyes.

"Don't worry, everything has been taken care of."

"That's good. Are you home now?"

Zhou Qizhen's eyes were still on the window, as if if he stared at it like this, the person he wanted to see would appear there in the next second.

"That's it!"

Lu Xiaoqiao thought he meant halfway and didn't think too much about it.

"Then you should go back and go to bed early to get over the jet lag."

"I'm fine, I'm used to it. I'll come pick you up tomorrow?"

"Okay, then tomorrow morning at ten o'clock."

"it is good."

……

The next day.

Half past nine in the morning.

Lu Xiaoqiao had just finished packing when she received a call from Zhou Qizhen.

"Are you here? I'll be downstairs right away."

"Xiao Qiao, I have something to do here that will take me a while. Can I ask the driver to pick you up later?"

"Sure! It doesn't matter. Just go about your business."

Zhou Qizhen didn't know whether he was happy or distressed by her frankness and generosity.

"Okay, I'm at Yingyue Lake now. I'll have the driver pick you up here later."

"okay."

The two made an agreement and hung up the phone.

Ten minutes later, the driver Zhou Qizhen arranged to pick up Lu Xiaoqiao arrived.

The driver took Lu Xiaoqiao to a hotel near Yingyue Lake. "Miss Lu, please rest here first. Mr. Zhou will come here to pick you up for dinner after he finishes his work. If you are hungry, please order first."

Lu Xiaoqiao replied, "Okay, thank you! You go ahead and do your work. I'm not hungry yet. We'll eat together when he gets here."

Wait until the driver leaves.

Lu Xiaoqiao was bored and wandered around the back of the hotel alone.

There is a straight path in the back yard that leads directly to the lakeside of Yingyue Lake. The geographical location is excellent, and you can enjoy the lake view while dining in the hotel. Of course, the price is definitely not cheap.

When I came here with Zhao Jia and others before, we sighed and discussed that it would cost several months' salary to spend money here once.

Walking to an arch bridge by the lake, looking down from above, there were many koi swimming in the water, as well as schools of small fish that Lu Xiaoqiao couldn't name.

I had no fish food in my hand, and I regretted taking out the only piece of bread left in my bag when I went out in the morning.

Lu Xiaoqiao looked at the fish with some envy as they swam towards the person who had fish food in his hand.

He raised his eyes and glanced at the man, a little surprised: "Mr. Tang?"

Tang Qian raised his eyebrows: "You saw me? I thought Miss Lu only had eyes for fish. You can't even see a living person like me standing here."

Lu Xiaoqiao smiled and said, "How could that be! I was just looking at the fish too intently, and now I see it! Did Mr. Tang come here for dinner?"

The main reason was that Tang Qian was wearing something a little too normal today, not as colorful as usual, like a peacock.

Tang Qian threw the remaining fish food into the lake, clapped his hands and said, "What? Miss Lu wants to treat me?"

"Mr. Tang, you're such a joke! I can't afford to treat you here. When I get a big order and make a lot of money in the future, I'll definitely treat you to a meal here."

When Lu Xiaoqiao said this, there was no trace of embarrassment on her face as if she couldn't afford the invitation. She was very relaxed and carefree.

"Miss Lu, since you can't afford me, then why are you here yourself? Don't try to trick me into thinking you're here for fun. As far as I know, this road isn't open to the public."

Lu Xiaoqiao said seriously, "I'm also eating other people's food. My friend invited me here."

"Oh? Boyfriend or just friend?"

"What difference does it make?"

"Of course. If we're just ordinary friends, it means I still have a chance!"

Lu Xiaoqiao didn't understand the deeper meaning of his words and thought that he just wanted to invite her to dinner like before.

"I'll treat you when your friend's contract is signed next week. I have an appointment with my boyfriend today."

I don’t know if she did it on purpose, but when she simply blinked at you, you had to believe her.

"Are you talking about Zhou Qizheng?" Tsk! He was quite quick to act. He had just started talking when I made my move.

"How do you know?"

Tang Qian answered the question irrelevantly: "I saw him just now. Can I take you to find him?"

Lu Xiaoqiao said, "I know he's nearby, but he's talking to a friend. He'll come find me later."

"Talking to a friend? Ha!" Tang Qian smiled meaningfully, "Miss Lu, I advise you to go and see for yourself for some things. After all, seeing is believing!"

"What do you mean?" Lu Xiaoqiao wondered why he said that.

Tang Qian continued, "You'll know if you go and see for yourself! I'm telling you this out of kindness because I see you're so naive and I can't bear to see you get deceived like this."

Lu Xiaoqiao could sense the ill intentions in his words, but curiosity killed the cat, so she followed him in the end.

Tang Qian led her through a row of small bamboo groves. They stood on the high stone steps and could see everything in the tea room on the second floor in front of them through a large floor-to-ceiling window.

There were about five or six people sitting at a tea table next to the window, both men and women. One of them was a man wearing a dark shirt and black trousers, who was the most conspicuous.

Her appearance and temperament, as well as the achievements and excellence gained through personal efforts, all earned her admiration and respect from those present.

Especially the woman sitting next to him at this moment, whose eyes have never left him since the beginning.

The woman was just sitting there elegantly, and her back exuded charming charm. Her long wavy hair draped softly behind her, and her slim skirt outlined the charming curve of her waist. Just by looking at her back, you could tell that she was a real beauty.

At this moment, she tilted her head and said something to the man beside her, her eyes and smile full of tenderness.

Just looking at them like this, the two of them are a perfect match.

"See? You're waiting for him to eat, but he's here meeting a beautiful woman."

To be honest, Lu Xiaoqiao felt a little uncomfortable when she saw this scene, but she would not abandon her trust in Zhou Qizhen's character just because of a word from an outsider.

"It's nothing, just tea."

Tang Qian scoffed.

"Drinking tea? You believe it? To tell you the truth, the woman sitting next to him is the daughter of the second branch of the Tang family. They are currently... on a blind date."

"Blind date?"

Judging from Lu Xiaoqiao's questioning tone, she obviously didn't believe it.

"You saw it with your own eyes, and you still don't believe it?"

Lu Xiaoqiao took out his phone and unlocked the screen while saying, "Sometimes what you see isn't necessarily true. Only what you hear with your own ears counts."

Tang Qian thought the little girl would cry sadly when she encountered this situation.

Then she ran away, blocked Zhou Qizhen's phone number, and finally broke up due to misunderstanding.

This...why is it different from what he expected?!
