1074 Can You Support Qianqian?
“Xiaolu, I didn’t expect to meet you here. Isn’t this too much of a coincidence?”
Lin Qianqian looked at the woman in surprise, a sincere smile on her face.
“I happened to be passing by and was a little hungry, so… I don’t usually come to such a high-class restaurant.” The woman’s smile was a little fake, and she immediately changed the topic. “Is this your boyfriend?”
She was referring to Ye Feng.
Lin Qianqian hurriedly shook her head. “No, he… He’s my boss.”
The woman’s eyes lit up. “Your boss? So young? I remember that you work in property management, right? Is he the boss of your property company?”
Lin Qianqian smiled and shook her head. “No, I’m working in an antique shop now.”
The smile on the woman’s face immediately faded. “An antique shop? Qianqian, I don’t want to criticize you, but why are you getting worse?”
“At least the property management company still has a path to rise. What future does the antique shop have?”
Perhaps in her opinion, an antique shop was the kind of small business that rented a small front door and placed a few old objects inside. Her tone was somewhat disdainful.
Lin Qianqian was a little embarrassed, but she did not explain too much. “Oh right, Xiaolu, what are you doing now? Seeing that you’re dressed so well, your job must be pretty good, right?”
The woman immediately smiled proudly. “I… I’m a freelancer now.”
Lin Qianqian nodded. “It’s good to be a freelancer. You can be free and unrestrained.”
As she spoke, she looked at Ye Feng. “Oh right, I haven’t introduced you. This is my university roommate Lu Xiaolu. This is my boss, Ye Feng.”
Normally, Ye Feng would not even bother to look at these common girls.
However, she was Lin Qianqian’s roommate after all, so he had to give her some face. He immediately stood up and extended his hand. “Hello, Miss Lu.”
Lu Xiaolu glanced at his hand, but she did not shake his hand. She was as proud as a peacock and sat opposite him.
When Lin Qianqian saw this scene, she hurriedly looked at Ye Feng apologetically.
Ye Feng did not mind. He returned to his seat.
“Qianqian, isn’t your boss too stingy? He’s treating you to a meal and he only ordered these dishes? Is this a total of 200 yuan? The cost of wooing a beauty like Qianqian is so low?”
After Lu Xiaolu sat down, she looked at the dishes on the table with disgust.
Lin Qianqian sat down beside her and hurriedly explained, “No, it’s my treat today. I’ve always been a stingy person. It’s not like you don’t know.”
She originally wanted to help Ye Feng out, but she did not expect that after Lu Xiaolu heard it, her expression became even more disdainful. “What? He’s going on a date with you and you’re treating him?”
“Qianqian, are you stupid? If a man can’t even bear to spend money on you when he’s chasing you, is this kind of man worth your time?”
Lin Qianqian heard her getting more and more ridiculous and hurriedly interrupted, “Xiaolu, it’s not what you think. He didn’t pursue me. We’re here today to talk about some work matters.”
Lu Xiaolu sneered. “What work matter? Aren’t these men all flirting with girls under the guise of work? Aren’t you too naïve?”
Lin Qianqian wanted to say more, but Lu Xiaolu turned to look at Ye Feng. “How much can your antique shop earn in a month? Can you support Qianqian?”
Ye Feng pursed his lips helplessly. “To be honest, I really don’t know how much my antique shop can earn in a month.”
“Besides, I didn’t pursue her. Did you misunderstand?”
What he said was the truth. He really didn’t know much about the revenue of the antique shop.
He had so many businesses, and the antique shop was the least profitable one. It was really not worth his worry.
But to Lu Xiaolu’s ears, these words were obviously prevaricating her. “Hehe, you don’t even dare to say how much money you earn. Why are you pretending to be a big boss?”
“Do you think that with your strength, you’re worthy of a beauty like Qianqian?”
Lin Qianqian kept tugging at her, but she ignored her and stared at Ye Feng like she was interrogating a criminal.
Ye Feng sighed, “Miss Lu, you must have misunderstood something, Qianqian and I are just friends. It’s not as complicated as you think. I have a girlfriend.”
It would have been better if he did not explain. But after his explanation, Lu Xiaolu’s eyes became even more disdainful. “Alright, are you using our Qianqian as a spare tire?”
“Are you planning to abandon her after playing with her? Don’t you want to take responsibility?”
Lin Qianqian heard her getting more and more ridiculous and hurriedly interrupted her. “Xiaolu, we haven’t seen each other for two years, right?”
“How have you been these two years? I really didn’t expect to meet you here.”
When Lu Xiaolu heard her question, she let Ye Feng go for now. She raised her wrist in a show-off manner, revealing a Breguet Queen of Napoli watch.
“Of course I’m doing well. Do you see this watch? My new boyfriend gave it to me yesterday. It’s worth more than 200,000 yuan.”
Lin Qianqian looked at her in surprise. “Your new boyfriend gave you such an expensive gift? This… Is it good? If it were me, I wouldn’t dare to accept it.”
Lu Xiaolu smiled faintly. “You’ve been in an antique shop for too long. Your thoughts are so old-fashioned.”
“The amount of money a man is willing to spend on you proves your value in his heart. If he’s not willing to give you a single cent, it proves that you’re worthless in his eyes.”
When she said the last sentence, she glanced at Ye Feng from the corner of her eyes. It was obviously meant for him to hear.
Ye Feng only took a sip of red wine. A strange smile appeared on his face.
He could tell at a glance that the watch that the woman was wearing was an A-grade watch. It was worth at most a few hundred yuan.
From the looks of it, in her boyfriend’s eyes, she was just a roadside chicken shop.
“What about your boyfriend? Why don’t I see him?” Lin Qianqian was smart enough to know that she was showing off. She hurriedly changed the topic.
“Oh, he went to the parking lot to park his Mercedes-Benz GLV. He should be here soon.”
As Lu Xiaolu spoke, she looked back and saw a man walking in from outside. “Dawang, here.”
Ye Feng and Lin Qianqian turned around, a strange smile appeared on their faces at the same time.
..
Lu Xiaolu’s boyfriend was about thirty years old. Due to his severe baldness, he looked like a person in his fifties.
Even though he was wearing an expensive suit, it was still incompatible with his rustic temperament. One look and one could tell that he was a nouveau riche.
Moreover, it had just erupted not long ago.
When he first walked into the restaurant, he was a little unnatural, as if it was his first time entering such a place.
However, when he saw Lu Xiaolu, he puffed up his chest again and pretended to be confident.
“Dawang, let me introduce you. This is my roommate from university, Lin Qianqian.”
Lu Xiaolu took the initiative to go up to him. She hooked her arm around the man’s arm and introduced him to Lin Qianqian. “Qianqian, this is my boyfriend, Xu Dawang.”
