Chapter 23: IQ Without EQ
“Don’t worry, I’ll be leaving for the capital in three days. By then, your aunt won’t be able to find me.” Jiang Xiaohui smiled wretchedly, obviously very pleased with himself.
“Jiang Xiaohui, why are you going to the capital?” Qiao Qiao frowned.
“My uncle has already hired me to work at the Qiao Corporation at a high price.” Jiang Xiaohui raised his eyebrows slightly. “As you know, I study AI technology. This is what the new car that my uncle’s company is developing needs…”
“Ha, ha.” Qiao Qiao laughed. “Sure. My old man has good taste.”
“Qiao Qiao, let me tell you. If you don’t go back and inherit the family a.s.sets, the Qiao family might become mine in the future.” Jiang Xiaohui patted Qiao Qiao’s shoulder. “But don’t worry, I’ll prepare a dowry for you.”
“That’s great.” Qiao Qiao suddenly grabbed Jiang Xiaohui’s hand. “If you really take over the Qiao Corporation, my brother and I will be very grateful to you. You have to work hard.”
“Stop it!” Jiang Xiaohui shook off Qiao Qiao’s hand. “In your dreams. I’m not going to be your employee.”
Qiao Qiao pursed her lips. Her brother wouldn’t come back with her aunt, so Qiao Feng had no choice but to target her. However, she felt that she was still better off starting her own business.
At this moment, Zhang Dake, who had gone out to make a call, returned. He glanced at Le Yao with a strange expression before sitting down. “Mengzi came over with Qianqiu. They’re downstairs.”
“Qianqiu is stronger than any man. Is Meng afraid that she will be bullied on the way?” Jiang Xiaohui smiled and shook his head. “It’s not convenient for him either…”
Zhang Dake was speechless.
Le Yao was speechless.
Wei Meng liked Lin Qianqiu. Lin Qianqiu liked Jiang Xiaohui, but Jiang Xiaohui was a dense man. This was an open secret in their circle, but the three of them usually got along quite well. It was quite amazing.
However, Le Yao was someone who knew the plot. In the end, Lin Qianqiu still married Wei Meng. The events were not described in the book. It said that after her confession to Jiang Xiaohui failed, Miss Lin went to the south and Wei Meng chased after her. A few years later, the two of them returned with a child. As for Jiang Xiaohui… it seemed that he was still single until Han Binglan died.
After all, people with IQ but no EQ usually stayed single.
Soon, Wei Meng and Lin Qianqiu came over together. They were both high school cla.s.smates of Jiang Xiaohui, but Wei Meng’s family worked for the government, and his father was the second-in-command of Xiling City. A few of his close cla.s.smates usually called him Mengzi, while the others called him Second Young Master.
Lin Qianqiu was pet.i.te and delicate. She was very beautiful, and her entire temperament looked soft and weak. No one would have thought that this girl was actually a seventh-stage black belt. She was very fierce when she fought.
“Han Binglan.” After greeting everyone, Lin Qianqiu sat beside Le Yao. “Yan Zimeng is back. You know that, right?”
“It’s hard not to know,” Le Yao said, spreading her hands.
“Then…” Lin Qianqiu’s eyes filled with sympathy. “Well… you…”
“I’m fine.” Le Yao looked at her primly. “I wish them a hundred years of happiness and many children.”
Lin Qianqiu blinked, then suddenly slapped the table. “That’s the spirit. Here, cheers.”
“Let’s go down and dance.” After drinking, Qiao Qiao pulled Le Yao to her feet.
