Sophia's sudden question made Xiao Zheng speechless. And this woman's angle had always been tricky. Xiao Zheng had already suffered more than once, so he might as well shut his mouth and not say anything. He just calmly poured wine for the three of them.
He was a man.
In such an occasion, he had to display a certain gentlemanly demeanor. Although Xiao Zheng was not a gentleman, he did not want to be cursed as a hooligan.
Xiao Zheng did not say anything, but Sophia was not one to take things lying down. Especially since this was her villa, her territory. How could she allow Qiu Shou to do whatever she wanted here and look down on everyone?
She prepared a sumptuous dinner and pushed Qiu Shou to the top. This was already Sophia's grievance for Xiao Zheng's sake and after weighing the benefits. There were some things that she could tolerate. But there were also some things that she could not tolerate.
For example, teasing her man in front of her.
"Boss Qiu. You said that Xiao Zheng wants to have a woman on both sides. I don't think so. "Sophia shook her head lightly and said thoughtfully.
"Oh?" Qiu Shou narrowed her eyes and glanced at Sophia, pursing her lips and asking. "What do you think, Miss Sophia?"
"Xiao Zheng told me before. Other than his wife, he can't accept any woman older than him. Especially a woman who is much older, "Sofia said, enunciating each word.
It was extremely insulting.
Women had three magical treasures. Face, figure, and temperament.
Women also had a big weakness, taboo, and weakness.
Age!
A beautiful lady in her early twenties would not be able to raise her head in front of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl.
Not to mention Qiu Shou, who was in her thirties?
Sophia, who was stuck at the threshold of thirty, had the confidence to criticize Sophia's age. Moreover, Qiu Shou had the face of a mature lady. Compared to Sophia's exquisite and beautiful face, she was much older.
This was a different kind of flavor. But at this moment, in Qiu Shou's ears, these words were unusually harsh.
She could call herself an old woman. But she could not tolerate others criticizing her. This was something that even Lin Huayin could not do. Not to mention Autumn Harvest, who was even more unreasonable than Lin Huayin?
"So, Boss Qiu, don't worry," Sofia said slowly. "I don't think Xiao Zheng will be interested in you."
"Sharp-tongued." Qiu Shou's eyes turned cold and his body emitted a bone-chilling cold aura. "Be careful not to get your mouth torn apart."
Sofia narrowed her eyes and smiled indifferently.
Of course, she knew that Qiu Shou was very powerful. Whether it was hard power or soft power, she was not Qiu Shou's opponent. But there was one thing that she had an advantage over Qiu Shou.
She was Xiao Zheng's woman.
But the autumn harvest was different.
It was just like how all of Xiao Zheng's women felt when they faced Lin Huayin. That sense of powerlessness and frustration was extremely depressing.
Xiao Zheng was worried that before the meal even started, these two equally magnificent women would ignite the gunpowder. Hastily changing the topic, he raised his glass and said, "Boss Qiu, let me offer you a toast."
"Boss Xiao, do you think I can drink it?" Qiu Shou's eyes flashed as she casually glanced at Xiao Zheng.
"Why don't you just serve your noodles?" Sofia mocked. "Anyway, I'm not used to eating with strange women."
This was originally Sofia's mockery. But in Qiu Shou's ears, it had a different flavor.
She raised her eyes slightly and looked at Xiao Zheng mysteriously. Even her voice became slightly soft. "This is what you prepared for me?"
Xiao Zheng did not know if the preparation was appropriate or not. He nodded and said, "I saw that you ate your supper quite cleanly. I don't think you hate noodles. "
"You're quite attentive." Qiu Shou no longer had the sharpness and arrogance from before. Her expression gradually became calm. But she did not argue with Sofia anymore.
Otherwise, just because of this bowl of noodles, Qiu Shou could criticize and ridicule Sofia for an entire night.
For example, does Xiao Zheng know what you, Miss Sofia, like to eat? How long have you known each other? But he doesn't know your taste at all.
What about me?
He knows that I like to eat noodles after just a few times of interaction.
Qiu Shou was petty, but when it was time to be magnanimous, she was quite gentlemanly. She did not add insult to injury in front of Xiao Zheng.
On the other hand, Sofia seemed to have realized that she had found a way for Qiu Shou to step down. She felt as if she had shot herself in the foot. She immediately became silent. She lowered her head and drank a mouthful of wine.
The atmosphere at the dining table was constantly changing. But finally, because of the intervention of Xiao Zheng, the peacemaker, they slowly returned to the right track.
The dishes were all carefully prepared by the chef. Even Xiao Zheng wanted to give her a thumbs up. It could be seen that Sofia had put in a lot of effort for this dinner.
"Boss Qiu. I heard that the people from the Heavenly Gates have already retreated? "Xiao Zheng chatted casually for a while, then cut to the chase and asked in a probing manner.
"Yes." Qiu Shou slowly ate the dishes. Her attitude was much more relaxed. She nodded slowly. "A bunch of people don't work and stay in New York to eat and drink. Who will feed them?"
These words sounded domineering, but it also meant that Qiu Shou had backed down.
Xiao Zheng nodded and said, "It's time to do some proper business. The next time they come to New York, I will arrange for someone to entertain them. "
"The leader of the Mercenary Association is going to entertain the fugitives from the Heavenly Gates?" Qiu Shou put down her wine cup and said with squinted eyes. "Boss Xiao, are you going to entertain them with guns and cannons?"
Xiao Zheng shook his head and said with a serious expression, "Putting aside the grudges of the older generation. From my point of view, I hope to coexist peacefully with Boss Qiu. "
"Grudges are grudges. There is no such thing as the older generation and the younger generation. "Qiu Shou's gentle expression suddenly changed when she mentioned the family grudges. She asked sharply. "Boss Xiao, if your father's family was forced to separate, and you have the ability to take revenge. Moreover, you have the ability to take revenge. Will you remain indifferent and forget each other in Jianghu, or will you fight to the death? "
Xiao Zheng opened his mouth, but he was speechless.
No matter what he said, it would be too easy for him to persuade her.
Even Sofia, who was sitting next to him, had tried her best to take revenge for her father's death. Xiao Zheng had also interacted with Sofia because of this, and they had their later experiences.
Qiu Shou raised her head and drank the strong wine in her cup. A cold light flickered in her beautiful eyes. "I was born for hatred in this life. But Boss Xiao wants me to forget my hatred? "
"You want to ruin my life?" Qiu Shou stared straight at Xiao Zheng. He asked mercilessly.
Sofia, who did not want Qiu Shou to act presumptuously in her territory, was also silent. She listened to Sofia's narration patiently.
She did not understand the past of the Zhao Family. She did not know what kind of hatred Qiu Shou was carrying. Only today did she know that Qiu Shou was in the same boat as her.
"In the end. A woman's ultimate goal in life is to find a good husband, "Sofia suddenly said. "Boss Qiu. Hatred will blind people's eyes. It will destroy the beauty that should have been there. "
"Beauty?"
Qiu Shou smiled strangely. She raised her beautiful eyes and stared straight at Xiao Zheng. "I'm just an old woman. What's so beautiful about me?"
