This man knows how to hype

Chapter 7 Dominance
heart.

Lu Qinyao looked at Xu Xiyu who was looking straight at her and admitted that she was really moved.

She opened and closed her mouth, with a thousand words in her heart, but for a moment she didn't know where to start.

After staring at Xu Xiyu for a long time, she finally said, "No, you had these thoughts from the first moment you saw me, or..."

"It can be considered as the first time we met." In Xu Xiyu's concept, this is the first time he and her officially meet.

"Oh, so that's how it is. Then, that is, um..." Lu Qinyao's mind was in a mess. She had always thought that Xu Xiyu was just a little boy who filled the void in her.

But his performance today was very different from what I knew him to be.

In the past, when he and I chatted, I had the initiative, I could tease him or be mean to him, and he could only carefully serve his emotions.

But just now, the initiative was always in his hands.

He was not affected at all by his previous habitual "frivolous words" and "frivolous things".

Even just now in the office, myself, my mother, and that idiot named Lin Nan, had no room to talk much. Everyone could only follow his pace.

All this made Lu Qinyao feel very uncomfortable after she calmed down and reviewed it.

This unfamiliarity made her instinctively want to regain the proper role positioning between the two of them through rebuttal.

But she also found that she really couldn't refute one point. Xu Xiyu's plan was very interesting, unless she intended to be a nitpicker.

However, she didn't want to agree so easily, and the reason was still those three words - not used to it.

When her thoughts reached this point, she fumbled around in the car again in a somewhat annoyed manner.

Soon, a box of cigarettes appeared in her hand. Looking at the few cigarettes left in it, she took one out of the box, then handed it to Xu Xiyu and shook it.

"I don't smoke." Xu Xiyu shook his head.

Lu Qinyao didn't retract her hand after hearing this, but continued to raise it and shook it. In response to her, Xu Xiyu still shook his head.

"Come with me and smoke one. You can do it. You used to smoke more than me."

"I've quit smoking. You'd better smoke less too. It's bad for your health."

Seeing Xu Xiyu rejecting her again, Lu Qinyao's expression changed rapidly and she crumpled the cigarette in her hand into a ball, throwing away the small iron box containing ash in anger.

It doesn’t really matter whether you smoke or not.

She just wanted to regain the dominant position she had just lost in front of Xu Xiyu.

Obviously, she failed.

This failure made Lu Qinyao very sad, because in her thirty-three years of life, she had rarely been able to truly take control.

This is true at home and at work.

I finally got to "fall in love", and I pretended to be frivolous for so long, wanting to gain a dominant position by having an indifferent attitude, but I didn't expect that I still couldn't control myself.

Inside the car, the flame of the ZIPPO lighter and the Lotus slim cigarette touched each other.

A wisp of light blue smoke floated upward from the cigarette butt and collided with the white mist spewing out of Lu Qinyao's mouth, making the air mixed.

Even more complicated than the air was Lu Qinyao's thoughts.

"You really think of yourself as my boyfriend and you even control me. I tell you, even if it's official, don't think about climbing up the ladder." Lu Qinyao said randomly.

This actually basically meant agreeing to Xu Xiyu's proposal just now. She believed that Xu Xiyu understood what she meant.

So, while she was talking, she kept tilting her head slightly and observing Xu Xiyu's reaction out of the corner of her eye.

She really hopes to see Xu Xiyu showing happiness or even ecstasy.

After all, being his public boyfriend should be a very prestigious thing for him, right? It's something he can brag about to his friends for years.

Unfortunately, the scene that Lu Qinyao expected did not appear.

Xu Xiyu just nodded, and then said: "You don't have to worry about me climbing up the ladder. We will have to officially announce our breakup in three months at most. By then, I will try to stay away from you to save you the trouble."

"What did you say?" Lu Qinyao's voice suddenly rose, "Break up?"

"Of course we have to break up." Xu Xiyu quickly replied, if I didn't want to erase my dark history and avoid becoming a legal expert. Let alone three months, I'm too lazy to stay with you for three hours. Do you really think I like you?

Of course, he thought so in his heart, but he said something else.

"Let's do the math. The topic of old men eating young girls can only be played for a month at most, and the topic of living the way women want can only be played for two months at most.

If you want to continue the topic, you can only break up, and you can't use bad reasons like "I cheated on you" to break up. You must use "Although I am a good person, I am not the kind of person you want" as an excuse.

Think about it, you dumped a boyfriend like me who is so handsome and nice, just because I am not the one you want. What do you call this?
This is called knowing what you really want. With this and your previous personality, you are definitely a representative of independent women in the new era, a heroine.

If you can come up with something that is strongly related to breaking up or life attitudes, that would be even better. In this way, including the first three months, your exposure for a year should not be a problem.

A year is enough time for you to find a way to become famous again. Even if you can't become famous again, you can still get a lot more female fans who will buy into your tricks, so it's a win-win situation no matter how you calculate it."

Looking at Xu Xiyu who was talking and blowing away the smoke with his hands, Lu Qinyao felt a complex feeling that she had never experienced before rising directly from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.

On the one hand, in her expectation, shouldn't Xu Xiyu try every means to pester her and talk to her more after the official announcement, in order to plan for more benefits?
Even if we don't plan for the benefits, just from the experience point of view, falling in love with yourself is much more exciting than falling in love with others.

What does it mean to officially announce the breakup within three months at most?

It’s not that we can’t break up. I didn’t intend to take him seriously. But the problem is that even if we want to break up, I have to be the one to initiate it!

How come you said my words?

It’s fine if my lines are snatched away when I’m acting on TV, but why do I have to have my lines snatched away when I’m in a relationship?

Holy shit? ! !

On the other hand, Lu Qinyao seemed to see the successful scene of the future marketing direction that Xu Xiyu had just planned.

This scene made her career ambition begin to beat.

The opportunity to make a comeback seems to be right before our eyes.

Thinking of this, she was about to say something, but suddenly realized that what appeared before her was not only a chance to become popular again, but also her mother who was walking quickly outside the car window, only a few meters away from her.

Oops.

There's still a half-smoked cigarette in his hand!

"Where's my ashtray?"

"It was thrown on the ground." Xu Xiyu replied, and then tried to reach down under his feet to pick up the ashtray that Lu Qinyao had just thrown away.

But Lu Qinyao didn't have time to wait for him to pick it up. Seeing that Fu Hongxiu was approaching, she stuffed the cigarette directly into Xu Xiyu's hand.

"What the hell?!" Caught off guard, Xu Xiyu instinctively caught the cigarette, but was also burned.

He was just about to scold Lu Qinyao when he saw the car door next to him was opened, and Fu Hongxiu and Lin Nan were standing outside.

"Why is there such a strong smell of smoke?" Fu Hongxiu frowned and fanned herself.

"Xiyu, smoke less, it's bad for your health." Lu Qinyao's voice sounded immediately.

Xu Xiyu: ????
