Beautiful beauties in the 80s courtyard

Chapter 147 I believe every word you say!

Finally, Director Zhou became completely happy.

He was extremely pleased and said to a few young people, "You young people chatting, haha, it's really good, youth is wonderful..."

That's a really happy laugh.

Zhen Xi picked up the paper again and looked at it carefully. He said to Lu Qiaoge, "The design is very beautiful. It's the first time I've ever seen one like this. I'm going back to my hometown to pay respects to my ancestors the day after tomorrow, and then I'll be leaving Jiangcheng. Can your workers make a sample tomorrow? If so, you can come to the Swan Hotel to discuss the next steps with me."

At this moment, Zhen Xi had actually returned to his elegant and refined demeanor.

Director Zhou thought Lu Qiaoge should be transferred to the Foreign Trade Bureau; she was truly a talented person.

Lu Qiaoge didn't know what Director Zhou was thinking, but she knew that Zhen Xi must have guessed that it was her who wrote the note.

She did it on purpose to let him know.

Lu Qiaoge doesn't have the habit of doing good deeds anonymously.

She said, "Mr. Zhen, don't worry, the sample will be ready by tomorrow afternoon."

Zhen Xi nodded: "Okay, we'll talk about the specific price when we get it."

Lu Qiaoge pointed to the paper and said slowly, "Mr. Zhen, I need to take the draft back to have the workers make it. If you want to know more details, we can talk about it tomorrow afternoon after we get the sample."

Apart from Qin Hengzhi, no one could understand the hidden meaning in Lu Qiaoge's words.

Of course, Zhen Xi could understand it.

He also knew that tonight was not a good time to ask questions in detail.

Tomorrow is fine too. Anyway, the gold watch has been found, so there's no rush.

Zhen Xi didn't presumptuously invite Lu Qiaoge to dance; to put it bluntly, he didn't dare.

He thought to himself that if Lu Qiaoge wanted to invite him to dance, she would take the initiative to do so.

Besides, that exceptionally elegant Representative Qin is currently talking to Director Zhou.

Let's forget about dancing.

Zhen Xi handed the paper to Lu Qiaoge and said with a smile, "See you tomorrow!"

Then I said to Director Zhou, "I have to go back now. Thank you for accompanying me, Director Zhou."

Oh dear, it's finally time to leave.

Upon learning that Zhen Xi was leaving, Director Xu immediately stood up and arranged for personnel to personally escort her safely back.

Director Zhou didn't stay any longer and said kindly to Lu Qiaoge, "You and Hengzhi are usually very busy, it's rare for you to have time to relax, have fun..."

Lu Qiaoge and Qin Hengzhi left towards the end of the ball.

After they left, Cao Lanzhu, who had been silent all night, also left with her cousin-in-law and Lu Min.

Lu Min couldn't understand Cao Lanzhu at all; what exactly was she trying to do?
Cao Lanzhu's cousin-in-law had a severe headache when she got home. She took a painkiller and then told her husband about what had happened that evening.

Deputy Director Duan's tightly furrowed brows relaxed.

God knows how worried he was that night.

In this era, no one can control everything; one must learn to leave room for maneuver in both conduct and actions.

This is Jiangcheng, not Beidu. His family and friends are all here, so he naturally has many things to consider.

So he went to talk to Cao Lanzhu: "Lanzhu, what exactly are you planning to do? Can you tell your cousin?"

He then added, "Whatever you want to do, you must think twice before you act. If you go too far, even your grandfather can't protect you."

Cao Lanzhu sneered: "For example?"

The cousin-in-law on the other end said directly, "For example, you were very good tonight. You didn't have a conflict with Lu Qiaoge. You just shouldn't have been so cold and domineering to Lu Min. She is also a pitiful girl, just like you, she lost her biological mother."

Cao Lanzhu: "I'm not stupid. Lu Qiaoge is obviously not someone to be trifled with. I know that much. Besides, you have to consider the owner before you beat a dog. She's Hengzhi's girlfriend. If I make things difficult for her, Hengzhi will hate me to death."

He then added, "As for Lu Min, who told her not to take advantage of such a good opportunity? If she and Hengzhi had gotten together, what would have become of Lu Qiaoge?"

Lu Min is an indecisive woman, so she's easy to deal with.

Deputy Director Duan was speechless: "Lanzhu, can you stop thinking about things that are not practical? You should study hard now so that you can be assigned a good job after graduation."

Cao Lanzhu was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "My uncle told me that as long as I can marry Qin Hengzhi and make contributions to the Cao family, he will help me investigate my parents and my brother."

Upon hearing this, Deputy Director Duan and his wife's expressions changed drastically. They exchanged a glance, at a loss for words.

Meanwhile, at the main gate of the Lu family, Lu Qiaoling had already entered the courtyard, while Qin Hengzhi and Lu Qiaoge stood at the gate talking.

Qin Hengzhi was referring to Cao Lanzhu: "...Her parents and younger brother were in a car accident three years ago. It wasn't a collision with another vehicle; the jeep crashed into the office of the Audit Section 1. The car exploded, and the office was burned down. The losses were huge, but Cao's second son, wife, and grandson all died. Could they be asked to pay compensation? The fire destroyed a lot of accounts and documents, so in the end, the matter was left unresolved."

Lu Qiaoge stared intently. 1975. If this was her past life in the same time and space, she wondered if there would be any information about it.

Unfortunately, she had no such information in her memory.

Lu Qiaoge nodded and said, "She doesn't mean me any harm. If she wants to talk to me, then let's talk. Don't worry about it. I can handle it myself. Let me tell you about Zhen Xi."

Although Qin Hengzhi was quite distressed that his girlfriend was too independent, when she mentioned Zhen Xi, he immediately stared intently at Lu Qiaoge.

So, Lu Qiaoge shamelessly attributed the information she knew to her own analysis without any psychological burden, saying that she had reminded Zhen Xi, and the gold watch was indeed found, but doing good deeds anonymously was not her style.

So she deliberately let Zhen Xi see the three words "melon seed basket" that she had written.

Qin Hengzhi's gaze turned somber. Suddenly, he pulled Lu Qiaoge, who was spouting nonsense, to the shadows of the wall.

His voice was low, tinged with inexplicable emotion, and sounded somewhat hoarse and alluring. The flutter in his heart had not lessened, but rather increased: "My little Comrade Lu is a bit underutilized in the neighborhood office. How about he try out a police post?"

As dusk settled, Lu Qiaoge could clearly feel the warmth of Qin Hengzhi's breath.

He clearly didn't believe her nonsense, but at this moment the two of them were too close, close enough that she could count the shadows cast by his eyelashes, close enough that the night breeze carried the crisp scent of pine on his body, close enough that their breaths mingled together in an ambiguous way.

Qin Hengzhi raised his hand and gently stroked Lu Qiaoge's face, his thumb lightly caressing Lu Qiaoge's delicate cheek. In the darkness, he whispered, "Comrade Lu, I believe every word you say!"

Lu Qiaoge felt the night breeze was so gentle. She raised her hand and gently tugged at Qin Hengzhi's collar, bringing him closer to her. His breath carried a seductive fragrance. Lu Qiaoge didn't speak, but you could see the joyful smile in her bright eyes.

Clearly, she liked his sincerity!

Just then, Meng Xia's voice came from inside the courtyard: "Where's your second sister?"

Lu Qiaoge took the opportunity to grab Qin Hengzhi's waist. Hmm, not bad, feels great.

She then gently pushed him away, turned around, and strode into the courtyard with light steps...

Thank you Qiang and caroletu for the donations, and thank you to everyone who voted for the monthly tickets. I've read through them all, and there are so many more today. I'm so touched. Thank you all so much! So I'm adding an extra chapter. I hope you guys can help me out these last few days of the month, as it's double the monthly tickets. I would be extremely grateful!
