The atmosphere in the corridor was a little strange.
Jiang Baobao didn't know what the other party meant, so naturally he didn't dare to act rashly.
Li Beijue also reacted suddenly, and the expression on his face instantly became very subtle.
He coughed lightly, hurriedly pretended to be nonchalant, and said, "I seemed to have promised you before that if you come back to take care of Mo Bai and Yan Bao, you will be rewarded. What do you want?"
When Jiang Baobao heard what he said, he finally showed a look of enlightenment.
Then he said without even thinking: "I don't want anything. If I insist on saying it..."
She paused for a moment, suddenly looked at Li Beijue thoughtfully, and spoke quickly: "As long as you don't cause me any trouble, I'll be thankful!"
Jiang Baobao left a word and quickly turned around and left without looking back.
Halfway through, he suddenly remembered something and turned around sharply.
"By the way, there will be a banquet about team investment in two days. Chairman Liu sent me an invitation letter. He should have sent it to you too, right?"
"Yeah." Li Beijue nodded.
Assistant Chen had already told him about this today, but Li Beijue hadn't decided yet whether to go or not.
Immediately afterwards, I heard Jiang Baobao continue to say: "I have decided to go, but I am not going because of you! I will try to keep a distance from you at the banquet! You'd better not think too much!"
Jiang Baobao has become much more proactive now. After being misunderstood by Li Beijue several times, he learned to clear the relationship before things happened.
Li Beijue was stunned for a moment, suddenly feeling a little unhappy.
Is she afraid of getting involved with herself?
A strange feeling flashed through Li Beijue's heart. Before he could think about it, he said, "I already have a suitable female companion, and I won't be with you."
There was a hint of "pity" in his tone that he didn't even notice, and he was stunned after speaking.
Why did you just say it like that?
Haven't you decided yet whether you want to attend that banquet?
When did he become so impulsive?
Li Beijue's eyes were filled with a trace of irritation again.
Jiang Baobao thought this was good, and nodded with satisfaction: "Then it's settled."
She dropped a word and turned around to leave in a happy mood.
Li Beijue stood there, staring at her back, wondering what he was thinking.
It wasn't until Jiang Baobao disappeared that he frowned slightly.
What happened to him?
These days, I always compare Lu Qing'er and Jiang Baobao together from time to time...
Is it because they are cousins?
still……
Li Beijue's thoughts became a rare mess. He couldn't find the exact answer, so he had no choice but to turn back to the study.
…
Two days later——
Li Beijue specially adjusted his time to attend the banquet that Jiang Baobao mentioned before.
The car stopped at the entrance of the magnificent hotel, and a waiter immediately came up and opened the car door respectfully.
"Jue... I've never invested in a game like this before. I won't embarrass you for a while, right?"
A delicate female voice came out from the car, it was Lu Qing'er.
Li Beijue shook his head. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly felt uncomfortable in his throat.
"Ahem..."
He coughed, feeling vaguely inexplicably lacking energy, and his eyebrows tightened instantly.
It seems that since yesterday, I have been feeling a little lack of energy...
He is sick?
Li Beijue thought about it in his mind for two seconds and thought that he had not been sick for many years, so he didn't take it to heart.
Then he answered what Lu Qing'er just said: "It's nothing. It's normal that you don't understand this. Just think of it as a day to relax."
"Okay, if you say that, I feel more relieved." Lu Qing'er smiled softly, and when she saw Li Beijue getting out of the car, she took the initiative to reach out and hold his arm.
Li Beijue was slightly startled, paused for only a second, and then walked towards the banquet hall as if nothing had happened, but subconsciously stared at Lu Qing'er next to him out of the corner of his eye.
The familiar feeling of wanting to pull my arm away came back in my heart.
He was really disgusted with Lu Qing'er's actions.
Maybe I still need time to get used to it...
Lu Qing'er seems to be very adaptable to being with her. If she tells what happened back then, she will be very surprised...
Li Beijue was thinking about it, but suddenly the scene of playing games with Jiang Baobao when he accompanied Yanbao to the parent-child sports meeting suddenly appeared in his mind.
At that time... he didn't seem to find anything uncomfortable about that kind of close contact?
Li Beijue frowned again, inexplicably lost in thought.
"Je?"
Lu Qing'er saw someone walking towards them, and hurriedly tugged Li Beijue's sleeve gently.
Li Beijue suddenly came back to his senses, and then he calmly exchanged polite words with the people in front of him, and then continued walking towards the banquet hall.
The people around him were very enthusiastic when they saw Li Beijue and came up to say hello.
Lu Qing'er stood aside obediently, and after scanning around, she found that most of the people here were men.
Only a handful of people who seemed to have status brought female companions.
Lu Qing'er couldn't help but feel a little happy for a moment.
Since Li Beijue is now willing to take himself to such an occasion... wouldn't he tell everyone his identity?
It seems that Mrs. Li's position is getting closer!
Lu Qing'er enjoyed the gazes falling on her, with a bit of arrogance in her eyes.
Li Beijue naturally noticed the looks in the eyes of the people around him, and his mood was a little subtle for a moment.
He originally planned to attend by himself, but two days ago he said in front of Jiang Baobao that he would invite a female companion, so he asked Lu Qing'er out.
Li Beijue sighed in his heart and suddenly felt a sudden pain in his forehead.
He stretched out his hand to rub his eyebrows and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
What happened in the past few days?
It should have been a happy thing to find Lu Qing'er, but...
Li Beijue's eyes flickered for a moment, and he glanced around subconsciously, only to find that Jiang Baobao hadn't arrived yet.
Then I heard someone whispering around me: "Why hasn't Miss Lisa come yet? Will she attend today?"
"Yes!"
Someone next to him immediately answered in a low voice, and said in a sour tone: "Xingchen is now the hottest team in the circle. No matter whether there is anyone behind it or not, if Ms. Lisa doesn't come as the boss, won't she not give face to other teams? It's inevitable. It will catch people's tongue, not to mention the quarrel with the Shadow Team last time was so tense..."
The man's voice became more gossipy, and Li Beijue's thoughts suddenly returned to the night of the last banquet.
In order to get his investment, Jiang Baobao drank more than thirty glasses of champagne alone!
In front of Li Beijue's eyes, a woman's slightly tipsy face and stubborn eyes, steamed by alcohol, suddenly appeared, and then he came back to his senses instantly.
He tightened his grip on the wine glass in his hand, a hint of gloom flashing in his eyes.
Why are you thinking about that woman again?
The person beside him now is Lu Qing'er.
She is the girl who saved her sixteen years ago!
