Chapter 382 Honey, So You Were Here (Lu Qing)

After opening the larger image for a closer look and confirming that it was indeed the scene before her, Shen Zhaoyi put down her phone and looked around.

Xu Meng, who was busy editing photos, noticed her actions, looked up, and also looked at her.

But apart from the distinctive locals, there's nothing noteworthy here.

"Zhaoyi, what are you looking for?"

"Do you know anyone here?" Shen Zhaoyi had already remembered who Lu Qing was.

At the grand gala of Mumu Live Company, the woman sitting next to me, wasn't she some kind of female boss? (Chapter 204)
I don't remember clearly.

Xu Meng was about to say that Langdu is not a tourist hotspot, and the probability of running into an acquaintance is probably even smaller than the chance of winning the lottery, when she saw a very cool lady walking towards her.

No, that can't be...

Is the world really that small?
To her surprise, the other person walked straight up to Shen Zhaoyi and greeted her cheerfully, "Sister in her sixties, what a coincidence!"

It's been a long time since I've heard such an outrageous and dramatic name.

This time, after seeing Lu Qing's appearance, Shen Zhaoyi finally connected the person with the memories in her mind.

Why are you still wearing that white suit?

"My family is poor and we can't afford new clothes."

Lu Qing pulled out a chair with a grin and sat down next to Shen Zhaoyi.

Upon noticing Xu Meng's presence, he boldly met her gaze and said, "Hi, little sister, why are you staring at me?"

Although the nanny's social anxiety has been improving over the past few months, her flirtatious opening remarks, coupled with Lu Qing's heroic face, still managed to make people blush.

"Wow, sister, your friend is really interesting!"

"You haven't even said anything yet, and your face is already this red?"

As if discovering a new continent, Lu Qing leaned over, about to move closer to Xu Meng, when Shen Zhaoyi stopped her.

"She's rather introverted. If you scare her away, I'll punish you by making you my assistant."

"assistant?"

Not quite.

If she's been out for half a day without saying a word, and she really is an assistant, then her work ability is seriously questionable.

Out of respect for Shen Zhaoyi, Lu Qing swallowed her words.

Noticing the shifting gaze, Xu Meng breathed a sigh of relief, lowered her head, and tried to minimize her presence.

Seeing that the nanny's social crisis had been resolved, Shen Zhaoyi changed the subject.

"Mr. Lu, are you here in Langdu for leisure?"

"What 'boss'? We've gotten a bit estranged, haven't we?" Lu Qing frowned. "Didn't we agree before that we'd become friends?"

"You can just call me Xiao Qing!"

"This isn't a good idea," Shen Zhaoyi said with some reservations, feeling that this person was being far too familiar.

Does this mean that this is the way things are done in business?

Lu Qing had no idea what she was thinking at that moment, and kept waving her hands, saying bluntly, "What's wrong with this? Does that mean you don't want to be friends with me?"

"No, that's not true." Shen Zhaoyi agreed half-heartedly, and under the expectant gaze of the other party, she called out, "Xiao Qing."

"Eh!"

"That's right!"

Using terms of address can quickly bridge the gap between people.

From the moment Lu Qing first saw Shen Zhaoyi, she wanted to befriend her. Even though they had a pleasant conversation at the party, they hadn't chatted at all after adding each other on WeChat. The main reason was that they didn't have any suitable topics to talk about.

We can't just start by talking about male anchors, can we?
Seeing that photo on her WeChat Moments just now stirred up Lu Qing's long-dormant thoughts once again.

Of all the countries and places in the world, to happen to meet in such a small city, what else could it be but an opportunity given by God?
It would be a shame not to seize this opportunity, given the extremely low probability of success.

"Sister, are you here for business or leisure?"

"Didn't I ask you first?" Shen Zhaoyi's smile didn't quite reach its full extent.

Meeting an old friend in a foreign land, and being so enthusiastic, makes one more cautious.

After hearing this, Lu Qing scratched her head and said, "Well, my memory is terrible. I forget everything when we're having a good time chatting!"

In the ensuing conversation, she explained why she was there: business and fun, half and half.

"We recently took on a project to develop a resort on this island."

"I thought the scenery was pretty good, so I came here myself and took the opportunity to enjoy a free trip."

"Development?" Shen Zhaoyi's skepticism increased even more.

Is there really such a coincidence in the world?

This is so much like a trap tailored to oneself.

Seeing her obvious distrust, Lu Qing pulled out a business card from her bag to reassure herself: "Sister, have you forgotten what I do?"

Shen Zhaoyi looked at the title of Design Director and suddenly realized.

So this is design work, not the clothing industry.

It's just that at the event, Lu Qing gave the impression of being too much like a fashion show coordinator.

Speaking of fashion shows, Shen Zhaoyi suddenly remembered that she seemed to have promised Qiu Yu that she would accompany him to some jewelry exhibition in S City at the end of the month.

I'll make a note of this and ask about the time when I get back to the hotel.

"Is the island you took over located nearby?"

"Of course." Lu Qing pointed in a general direction. "It's less than a ten-minute drive out to sea. We're currently in the research phase, planning to experience the local customs and culture before going back to work on our plans."

Shen Zhaoyi stared at the sea for a while, lost in thought. When she looked away, her tone was less wary.

Would you mind bringing an extra person along on the trip?

Upon hearing this, Lu Qing immediately guessed her intention: "You want to go?"

"Ah."

Shen Zhaoyi didn't hesitate to admit it; she did indeed have this plan. The islands in the vicinity were almost all similar, and by referring to the development of others, she could avoid some detours later on.

Lu Qing had thought that the creative aspect might be a bit difficult, but to her surprise, the other party agreed without even thinking about it.

"Aren't you afraid I'll steal your skills?"

"If I could learn something just by looking at it twice, how would I make a living?"

Lu Qing's relaxed demeanor gradually made the atmosphere of the conversation more pleasant.

Just as they had set a time to meet tomorrow, a blond, blue-eyed foreign man suddenly appeared at their table.

Under Shen Zhaoyi's watchful eye, the other person naturally put their arm around Lu Qing's waist, kissed her cheek, and said, "Honey, so you were here."

This ambiguous behavior made their relationship public.

Xu Meng loved watching this kind of scene. She quietly shifted her gaze from the tablet, completely unaware that the person next to her had a strange expression.

Although Shen Zhaoyi couldn't remember many unimportant things, the place where she met Lu Qing was too special. At that time, there was a male anchor accompanying her, who seemed to be closer to her than she and Mu Mu.

How long has it been since he changed partners?
