Chapter 1020 - 929: Darling, This Is Ai
Lu Qing rarely behaves like this. Situations at work don’t usually leave him at a loss. It’s almost impossible for him to attend drinking parties; usually, it’s others drinking while he pushes the wine glass away.Qin Miaomiao hints, "Have I been neglecting you lately? Didn’t even know you were practicing your drinking skills."
Lu Qing smiles and wraps his arm around Qin Miaomiao’s shoulder, "I was drinking with Yan Lv."
Qin Miaomiao recalls the time they were threatened by paparazzi and fiercely pulls on his ear, "Did someone catch you going to a hotel again this time?"
Lu Qing pretends to dodge, and while dodging, he pulls Qin Miaomiao into his arms, "If someone took a picture, you could get jealous, and I love when you’re jealous."
Qin Miaomiao is torn between laughter and tears, rolling her eyes internally.
She still remembers how she felt seeing Lu Qing talking to a call girl at the hotel door. She was genuinely angry, so how could he joke about it like this?
Lu Qing suddenly remembers something, "Oh, do you remember what Mr. Jiu said about the assassin organization changing its leader?"
Mr. Jiu has been elusive lately. He showed up once to save Da Bao, warned them about the change in the assassin organization, and then disappeared again.
Qin Miaomiao’s heart skips a beat, she looks seriously at Lu Qing, "What’s wrong?"
Lu Qing slightly frowns, pats Qin Miaomiao’s shoulder, indicating her to relax, "It’s nothing."
The night is deep, Qin Miaomiao yawns with teary eyes, "Alright, let’s talk about it tomorrow if there’s something."
The next day, Qin Miaomiao has already forgotten what Lu Qing said last night. Because she suddenly realizes that it’s almost Xu Jiaojiao’s engagement ceremony date. But she has never heard Xu Jiaojiao mention anything about the engagement ceremony.
On the way to the company, Qin Miaomiao puts on her Bluetooth headset to ask Xu Jiaojiao, any plans for the engagement ceremony?
Xu Jiaojiao is applying a face mask while reciting her lines, speaking somewhat awkwardly, "Engagement ceremony... I haven’t thought about it yet."
Qin Miaomiao laughs, "Are you letting your Jin Jing handle it?"
Xu Jiaojiao says, "If I do everything, how will he have a chance to show off? I can’t take away all his pleasures."
Qin Miaomiao laughs, "I didn’t expect our Jiaojiao to be a love expert too."
Every time Qin Miaomiao calls her Jiaojiao, Xu Jiaojiao feels a chill from the inside out. There’s nothing she can do; her name and her image are too different. She really doesn’t know what her parents were thinking when they named her.
However, Qin Miaomiao’s reminder is sensible. She should put some effort into her engagement ceremony. She immediately texts Jin Jing: Busy recently? The subtext being, you never come to see me.
Jin Jing, very perceptive, reads Xu Jiaojiao’s thoughts and replies: I’ve been waiting for you to come to me.
Xu Jiaojiao curls her lips into a slow smile, holding her phone in one hand, her thumb tapping slowly, "I’m reaching out to you now, and yet you’re not thinking of me?"
Jin Jing replies with a pleading emoji, "You’re reaching out to me?"
Xu Jiaojiao says: To chat with you.
Jin Jing sends a voice message: "Sweetheart, open the door."
Xu Jiaojiao is slightly taken aback and quickly goes to the hallway to open the door.
She still has her silk face mask on, her expression stiff. Seeing Jin Jing at the door with breakfast in his hands, she can’t help but want to laugh, but to prevent the mask from falling off, she keeps her mouth stiff saying, "Why are you here?"
Jin Jing blinks his peach blossom eyes, his delicate features particularly vivid in the morning light, "I missed you, so I came to see you."
Xu Jiaojiao cooperatively shivers, indicating that Jin Jing’s words are too cheesy.
These words, when typed out on WeChat, can make someone smile knowingly, but when said out loud, Xu Jiaojiao finds them too pretentious.
