Chapter 4, a bright and alluring flower

That night, the two did not go to the most expensive restaurant nor did they order the most expensive dishes; instead, they went to a Sichuan restaurant located at the back gate of their former high school. Both of them had a penchant for spicy food and enjoyed their meal immensely

Although Grandfather Jiang is very strict with Jiang Shengzhuo, it is merely verbal; in reality, he is reluctant to lay a finger on him. However, Jiang's father, Jiang Rongxiu, is truly capable of taking action. Perhaps having spent most of his life in the military, he possesses a straightforward temperament and cannot tolerate even the slightest imperfection. When angered, he directs all his frustrations towards Jiang Shengzhuo.

Jiang Shengzhuo raised an eyebrow and threw her a flirtatious glance, "In this era where subtlety is rampant, you should cherish the opportunity of encountering someone as openly flirtatious as me!"

... ...

Having finished eating, Qiao Lexi, while sipping juice, teasingly asked Jiang Shengzhuo, "Go ahead, General Jiang, what is it that you want to invite me to dinner for? Take advantage of my good mood and bring it up quickly; once this village is passed, there won't be this shop anymore"

She changed her clothes in the office lounge, washed her face, and began to apply makeup in front of the mirror. When Guan Yue entered to deliver some documents and saw her like this, he was taken aback, "What are you doing?"

On a weekend afternoon, Qiao Lexi went to the team leader's office to discuss the base debugging project. Just after returning to the office and filling a cup of coffee to the brim, her phone vibrated with an incoming text message

Qiao Lexi looked at his self-absorbed expression, sighed, and shook her head, saying, "Yes, yes, yes, radiating charm. Be careful not to overexert yourself, or you might exhaust your vitality."

Lexi's hands did not stop moving, her face filled with helplessness, "There is no way around it, summoned by imperial decree, appearing without proper makeup will result in being dragged out through the noon gate for punishment."

The car slowly came to a stop in front of a small building. Two people got out, and Qiao Lexi began to shake her head and sway. "Ah, once again, we are going to engage in a life-and-death struggle with the older generation of revolutionaries. Jiang comrade, it has been tough for you and the * picture * book

What are you saying

Only such flamboyant colors are worthy of a young talent like me, who is charming and dashing.

Why does your every appearance only remind me of one word, which is 'flirtatious'?

Please feel free to give any instructions you may have

After Qiao Lexi sat down, she said to Old Master Jiang, "Grandfather, the weather hasn't been very good lately, and your leg must be hurting again. After we finish eating, let me give you a massage."

She finished her last stroke, tidied up the table, chatted with Guan Yue for a few more moments, and then glanced at the time. Realizing it was almost time, she picked up her bag and said, "Alright, I'm leaving now, goodbye"

Qiao Lexi slammed the cup down on the table, looking at him with ill intent, and casually replied, "Then let's not discuss it!"

Le Xi had a look of panic on her face, "How could that be, Young Master Zhuo? I am absolutely considering you. If I don't dress up properly and appear listless, won't Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang think that we had a quarrel? Moreover, just a few days ago, you made the headlines in the entertainment section. Do you think they won't overthink it? At that time, tsk tsk, please give me a few minutes to imagine your fate."

For several consecutive days, Jiang Shengzhuo had been silent. As Qiao Lexi watched the weekend approach, her mood improved increasingly. She could imagine that Jiang Shengzhuo's current state was likely becoming more and more irritable, resembling a predator waiting for its prey to fall into the trap.

Seeing Le Xi sauntering over, I extinguished my cigarette and glanced at my watch. Raising my head, I smiled at Qiao Le Xi with gritted teeth, "You are fifteen minutes slower than last time, Qiao Le Zi, you did this on purpose, didn't you"

Guan Yue waved goodbye to her, saying, "Bye."

Qiao Lexi also forgot to mention that Jiang Shengzhuo is not only flamboyant but also self-indulgent. Today he is academic, tomorrow he is punk, and there is not a single day of peace. Now he has shifted to a more androgynous style.

Qiao Lexi was taken aback by this thought, harshly despising herself before heading in that direction

After speaking, he said with great excitement, "Go ahead and name your price, I am ready to strike."

Jiang Shengzhuo is leaning against the car door downstairs, smoking intermittently.

During a lively meal, just as we were finishing, the elder seated at the head of the table began to raise issues

Qiao Lexi could not stand him, "Moreover, don't you think the color of your car and this shirt today is a bit too much?"

Jiang Shengzhuo glanced at her and淡淡吐出一句, "We share the same suffering"

Qiao Lexi smiled at him and crisply refused, "I won't buy it!"

Jiang Shengzhuo took a deep breath and said, "I am not angry, not angry. Who told me that I need something from you? I will just see if there will be a time in your life when you need me. When that time comes, you must not blame me."

She let out a chuckle, looking out the window, and indeed, Jiang Shengzhuo's dedicated car was parked downstairs.

Although you are both shameless and flirtatious, as well as narcissistic and utterly unashamed, I still wish to play for a few more years; you must not die before me

After speaking, he slipped away

Qiao Lexi was beaming with delight, wearing a face full of schadenfreude, "I must graciously accept your compliments. After all, I am so well-behaved that my family hasn't pressured me into marriage, unlike certain infamous individuals. Tsk tsk, how pitiful!"

Qiao Lexi smiled faintly, subtly making an offer, "The last calligraphy and painting I found, please give it to me."

Qiao Lexi really wanted to laugh, but she bit her teeth tightly to hold it in. The matters of the Cheng family were known by almost everyone in the courtyard, and only Jiang Shengzhuo, this "unfilial son," dared to speak so recklessly.

Jiang www.hetushu.com.com Shengzhuo waved his hand and said, "No!"

The so-called home-use vehicle is characterized by a color and style that are both conventional and standard

Father Jiang slammed the chopsticks and glared at him, "How can you speak to your grandfather like that!"

Jiang Shengzhuo, if you don't speak, I will hang up!

Due to work requirements, Le Xi usually wears work attire. At this moment, she has changed into a light yellow fitted dress, and her fair face is adorned with subtle makeup, making her look radiant and surprisingly stunning, to the point that it is difficult to look directly at her.

Qiao Lexi greeted politely, and Jiang Rongxiu nodded with a smile. Although he did not say anything, it was clear that he was in a good mood today. The old gentleman beckoned Qiao Lexi to come over and sit down

As soon as Jiang Rongxiu's seemingly imperceptible yet lethal gaze swept over, Jiang Shengzhuo immediately stood up, "Grandfather, Dad, I will go to the kitchen to see how Grandma and Mom are doing."

Then, she really wanted to pretend not to know him

Qiao Lexi felt that every time this topic was brought up, Jiang Shengzhuo became particularly irritable. She knew that he was waiting for someone.

Jiang Shengzhuo glanced at her sideways and said, "You really know your stuff, what do you want that thing for!"

Le Xi's vivid performance made Guan Yue chuckle softly, and after laughing, she began to seriously scrutinize her.

The air there is as light as a wisp, "I invite you to dinner"

Jiang Shengzhuo gritted his teeth and said, "It is truly a waste for you not to engage in business!"

When the protracted and lengthy meeting finally concluded, Qiao Lexi checked the time and answered the phone in the last five seconds before the ringing stopped. On the other end, Jiang Shengzhuo had already lost his temper.

Jiang Shengzhuo wore an expression of impatience, "I don't remember."

Jiang Shengzhuo threw down the chopsticks and glanced at her, "What is it that you are still unclear about in your heart, to be asking?"

Le Xi has always advocated for enjoying the present moment, believing that one should drink and be merry today, and if there is no wine tomorrow, then cool water will suffice. As for future matters, they can be discussed later; what matters most is that she feels refreshed and invigorated at this moment

Qiao Lexi appeared in Jiang Shengzhuo's line of sight after ten minutes of dawdling

Do you still remember your Uncle Cheng's daughter

Jiang Shengzhuo was so furious that he spat blood and smoke billowed from his seven orifices, yet he still laughed, "You are something else, Qiaolezi, just you wait."

Once on the car, Qiao Lexi straightened her back, clasped her hands in front of her, and asked earnestly, "Mr. Jiang, I have a question that I've wanted to ask you for many years. I simply can't hold it in any longer today, and I hope you won't mind."

Princess Le, the time is almost up; it is time to set off. If we do not return to the palace soon, we will miss the imperial meal

His attire today is quite different from his usual style; it seems he has just emerged from a meeting. Jiang Shengzhuo's features are inherently delicate, and his skin is fair. He typically dresses in casual wear, exuding a sense of lazy elegance. However, now, dressed in formal attire, even though he is wearing a pink shirt, it does not convey any sense of frivolity; instead, it gives the impression that he is cultured and refined.

Jiang Shengzhuo immediately changed his expression, his face full of smiles as he seriously recalled, "I truly do not remember. Does Uncle Cheng have a daughter? Which wife gave birth to her?"

Qiao Lexi glanced at him and said, "Why do you care about me? You are just a money-grubbing merchant; that thing is of no use to you! It is better to send it to me than to feign elegance."

Qiao Lexi immediately turned to smile, "Then I truly thank you, Young Master Zhuo."

Jiang Shengzhuo squinted at her for a few seconds, gritted his teeth, and said, "I'll sell it to you!"

Le Xi grew up under the watchful eyes of the Jiang family, who were quite fond of her. Upon entering, she was surprised to find Jiang's father also present, and she could clearly sense the person beside her shuddering.

Indeed, she began to speak harshly, "Qiaolezi, I will wait for you downstairs at your company for ten minutes. If you do not come down by then, I will let everyone in your company know that the third young lady of the Qiao family is secretly visiting to experience the life of the common people"

She also understood in her heart why Jiang Shengzhuo was so determined to bring her along

Qiao Lexi was taken aback for a moment, then replied fiercely, "Jiang Hudie! You are ruthless! Having a meal, are you? Fine, just watch me not overpower you!"

During the afternoon meeting, the phone in the pocket indeed vibrated incessantly. Qiao Lexi wore an expression of inevitability as she slowly took it out and then decisively silenced it.

Two people sit across the table from each other, exchanging silent glances, in a tranquil room

Qiao Lexi was in a cheerful mood, "Oh, Master Zhuo, what can I do for you?"

... ... ''

The pink Lamborghini LP670-4SV stands beside Jiang Shengzhuo, who is dressed in a pink shirt, and Qiao Lexi can only think of one word

Jiang Shengzhuo frowned, displaying an expression of reluctant sacrifice, "Alright! I will give it to you!"

Why be so polite!

After pressing it three times in succession, the tension in Qiao Lexi's heart completely dissipated, leaving her feeling quite at ease. When she looked up, the team leader was glaring at her, so she quickly tossed her phone aside and lowered her head to attend the meeting obediently

His appearance is quite captivating, and Qiao Lexi's company is located in a bustling area, where passersby often, whether intentionally or unintentionally, direct their gaze towards him. He seems to have long since grown accustomed to this, appearing unfazed and at ease, showing no signs of discomfort.

The old man immediately beamed with joy, his face full of kindness, "The girl is still more considerate, much better than that little brat!"

In a pink shirt and gray suit, lazily leaning against a car of the same color, he spotted Qiao Lexi and smiled at her from a distance. Qiao Lexi immediately felt an enchanting and captivating aura, wishing she could take out a mirror to reveal his true form.

Qiao Lexi curved her lips and said, "Can I say that my schedule is full and I have no time to greet you?"
