Although his technique wasn't as good as Duanmu Que's, he still closed his eyes and enjoyed it. It didn't look like he was particularly bad at it.
After pressing for a while, Duanmu Que opened his eyes and looked at me. "That Jiang Qing, what's his relationship with you?"
"Jiang Qing, his father is one of the founding members of our Red Tea Society. When Jiang Qing came of age, he sent him to our society. At that time, I had just taken over this branch and needed more manpower. Father saw that he was about the same age as me and that he was good at his job, so he sent him to me. Now, he can be considered the second in command of this branch. Why are you asking about him?" I asked as I squeezed his shoulder.
"Why do I feel like he has feelings for you?" Duanmu Que rolled over on the sofa and looked at me. "Don't joke around.
He's a few years younger than me. And look at him, he looks like he hasn't grown up yet. He's like this every day. But don't look at him like that. He's very popular with women. Just like you, he's always changing girlfriends. "I laughed.
Duanmu Que furrowed his brows and pulled me into his arms. My entire body pressed against his. "I don't always change girlfriends. You're doing this on purpose, aren't you?"
He saw that I wanted to slip away, so he hugged me tightly and wouldn't let go. I laughed until my stomach hurt. In the end, I laughed until I didn't have any strength left, so I laid on top of him. Duanmu Que gently stroked my hair and patted my back. Just like that, the two of us fell into a deep sleep.
In the evening, Jiang Qing's phone call disturbed our sweet dreams. The driver was already waiting for us outside the door. The two of us quickly tidied up and left. We sped all the way to a hotel under the name of the Red Minghui. Jiang Qing was already waiting for us at the entrance. Under his guidance, we entered the hotel lobby. A group of people walked toward us. Among them was a tall and sexy woman. She looked at us blankly for a moment, then walked toward us with a smile.
"Duanmu Que, what a coincidence." The woman walked directly in front of Duanmu Que.
Duanmu Que glanced at her. Without saying a word, he took my hand.
"What? You don't recognize me? Is it because you've slept with too many women that you've forgotten too quickly? " The woman stretched out her left hand. There was a long scar on her left wrist. It looked like she had committed suicide. "Then you should remember this."
Duanmu Que looked at her wrist and then at her. "Lv Sixue, what do you want to say?" It turned out that this woman was called Lv Sixue. It seemed that she should be one of Duanmu Que's ex-girlfriends. Was she looking for trouble with the Duanmu Que?
Jiang Qing saw that the situation wasn't right, so he stood in front of Duanmu Que. "Beautiful lady, we still have some business to take care of. If you really need anything, just use this address to find me." He handed over a business card to her.
Lv Sixue looked at Jiang Qing and then at Duanmu Que. "I'm talking to him. Who gave you the right to interrupt?"
I saw that this situation wasn't something that Jiang Qing could solve, so I reached out and grabbed Duanmu Que's arm. "Hubby, let's go upstairs. Uncle Jiang is waiting for us, okay?" I winked at Duanmu Que, indicating that he shouldn't pay attention to this woman.
The woman looked at me with an arrogant expression. "I was wondering why you were pretending not to know me. So you have a new lover. But when did your taste become so bad?"
As soon as Jiang Qing saw that she was slandering me, he became anxious. He immediately called a few people over and indicated that they should pull Lv Sixue away. While they were struggling, a few people came down from upstairs. The leader was a tall and sturdy middle-aged man with a body full of tattoos and a scar on his face. He shouted, "Let go!" We all looked up at them. He walked in front of Jiang Qing with a ferocious expression. He hugged Lv Sixue and said, "Babe, what happened?"
Lv Sixue leaned against the man's chest with an aggrieved expression. "They bullied me. Because I didn't give way to them, they wanted to beat me. Look, my arm is bruised." She stretched out her arm.
The man glared at Jiang Qing. "Huh? Give me an explanation, young man. " Jiang Qing's face turned red. He was so angry that he couldn't speak. One of the men behind the man reached out to hit Jiang Qing. I stepped forward and pulled Jiang Qing back. I reached out and flung away the fist that was coming at me.
The man's expression became even more ferocious. He let go of Lv Sixue and walked towards me with his fists clenched. He was too tall. I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to beat him. While I was thinking about how to deal with him, Duanmu Que suddenly stood in front of me. He stood in front of me and stared at the man. The man suddenly raised his fist and punched Duanmu Que. Duanmu Que stood there without moving.
"Stop!" The man stopped his fist. It was only ten centimeters away from Duanmu Que's handsome face. We looked up and saw Uncle Jiang walking down the stairs with a few people.
Uncle Jiang walked between us. He looked at them and then at us. Then he turned to the man and said, "Wang Meng, even though our families don't usually interact, what is the meaning of you making a scene at my place today?"
"Jiang Guofeng, take care of your people." He glared at Duanmu Que.
"What? You want to continue? This is Red Minghui territory. Do you think you can escape unscathed? "Uncle Jiang also glared at him.
"Okay, I'll give you face this time. Remember, you won't be so lucky next time. Let's go." Wang Meng turned and left.
Lv Sixue walked in front of Duanmu Que. "Remember, I won't give up so easily." Watching her leave, Duanmu Que's expression was very serious.
After they left, Uncle Jiang walked in front of us. "Xiao Li, are you okay?" I shook my head.
"Then let's go upstairs." Uncle Jiang led us upstairs. Duanmu Que's expression was very serious the whole time. Looking at his thoughtful expression, I knew he was worried about what Lv Sixue had said. I only held Duanmu Que's hand and smiled at him. I didn't want him to feel too burdened.
We entered the private room. All the people present were the management of the branch. There were also bosses and people in charge of various industries under Red Minghui. After everyone was seated, Uncle Jiang introduced me to them one by one. They also gave me a simple report on the future development of Red Minghui. During the whole time, Duanmu Que's mood wasn't very good. He lowered his head and ate sullenly. I was worried about him. While everyone was happily chatting with each other, I found an excuse to bring Duanmu Que out.
I asked the waiter to find a lounge for the two of us. After we entered the lounge, Duanmu Que sat on the sofa in a daze. I lovingly stroked his hair.
"What's wrong? I feel you're out of spirits. "I took his face in my hands and kissed him on the cheek.
