Chi Jiao couldn't help but laugh when she heard Yan Zhengchen's complaints, but her hands didn't stop moving.
Gong Lu helplessly took the cup of warm water with honey in it. He raised his head and drank it elegantly. Then, he looked at Chi Jiao and smiled. "Jiaojiao, you're calling at this time. It's probably because of our collaboration with Quan Jingzhou, right?"
"Yes, a month has passed. I heard that Quan Jingzhou has already signed the contract for the bridge across the river. Construction started two weeks ago. I calculated the time and felt that it's just right to take back the money now. I wonder if you have time? "Chi Jiao's lips curled into an extremely bright smile as she asked the two of them expectantly.
Gong Lu smiled gently, his words filled with love for Chi Jiao. "I might not have time when I'm doing other things. But if I'm helping you, I'll have time no matter what. We've already discussed it yesterday. We'll look for Quan Jingzhou tomorrow to withdraw our investment. "
"Alright, then I'll be the host tomorrow night. Brothers, you must come." With that, Chi Jiao waved goodbye to Gong Lu and Yan Zhengchen before hanging up the video call.
"It's really not easy being an older brother. I have to run around all day for the person my sister likes." Yan Zhengchen's tone was rather emotional. He couldn't help but say, "I really don't know what's so good about Quan Jue that our Jiaojiao likes him so much."
"Sometimes, there's no need for so many reasons. It's hard to explain when you like someone. Don't get to the bottom of it," Gong Lu said with a deep gaze as he lowered his eyes thoughtfully.
When Yan Zhengchen heard this, he looked at Gong Lu thoughtfully and suddenly said, "Previously, Qingqing told me that her family introduced me to another blind date."
Gong Lu paused and continued to lower his eyes without looking at Yan Zhengchen. He only nodded gently and hummed in acknowledgment.
Yan Zhengchen looked at him unhappily. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Aren't you going to ask what happened next?"
"It's nothing more than whether I'm satisfied or not. I'm not interested," Gong Lu said expressionlessly.
Yan Zhengchen had a look of disbelief. Without giving Gong Lu a chance to guess, he said directly, "You guessed wrong. I'll get Qingqing to go back and help me tell my family. It's not that I'm not interested in those little girls. Besides, isn't taking care of you enough? I can't stand another one. Come and get the milk. I'll send you to work after breakfast. "
When Gong Lu heard this, the corners of his lips curled up slightly. The gloominess in his eyes instantly disappeared. He picked up the glass of milk on the table and ate breakfast with Yan Zhengchen.
That night, Zhan Tingting called Chi Jiao again to inform her that the old woman had fainted in the afternoon. According to Shen Xing, the old woman was already exhausted. If they didn't save her now, she would probably die.
Of course, Chi Jiao couldn't let the old woman die in the villa. She rushed to the villa after work that night and saw that the door was wide open. The old woman actually cooperated and walked to the edge of the barrier. She collapsed under a big tree in the courtyard, looking half-dead.
Chi Jiao finally stopped hiding. She couldn't help but smile as she walked forward and stood outside the barrier.
When the old woman saw Chi Jiao, she instantly became agitated. She raised her hand and slapped the barrier hard, her mouth opening and closing as if she was saying something.
