133: Aunt Zhao with fair skin, beautiful face and long legs
To be honest, Gao Ze never expected to run into Li Qingshu at Gubei No. 1.
It was only when he saw her at that moment that he remembered Li Qingshu and her mother lived there.
He recalled that when they first met, to teach Li Qingshu a lesson, he had even analyzed her residence, which had surprised her.
“Mr. Gao!”
The moment their eyes met, a flicker of confusion and surprise, along with an lingering sadness and desolation, crossed Li Qingshu’s eyes.
“What a coincidence, Qing Shu!”
Gao Ze naturally knew where her sadness came from and secretly felt fortunate that Li Qingshu had not shown any affection, and that they had not developed a romantic relationship, only remaining good friends.
Otherwise, after his wife, Li Qingyan, announced their relationship on Weibo, he wouldn't have known how to face her.
“It is quite a coincidence, Mr. Gao, why are you here?”
Li Qingshu held her breath, eager to hear that he had come specifically for her. Since Gao Ze could analyze that she lived in Gubei No. 1 upon their first meeting, why couldn't he find out her exact address now?
But she knew this possibility was almost negligible; otherwise, Mr. Gao’s first words wouldn't have been “What a coincidence.”
“I wasn't comfortable staying in the hospital, so I came here to rest for a night!”
Li Qingshu calmly nodded her head, but her fingertips secretly pressed into her palm.
Gao Ze’s investment income was tied to her, and she was well aware of his assets; so far, he had only earned tens of millions in profit, which was nowhere near enough to buy a luxury home like those in Gubei No. 1, which cost forty or fifty million.
There was only one possibility: the luxury home Gao Ze was staying in belonged to her cousin, Li Qingyan.
What a twist of fate! Her cousin Li Qingyan’s property was connected to her, and perhaps Li Qingyan had no idea, or rather, probably didn't even know of her existence.
After all, her identity was merely that of an illegitimate daughter, unable to even attend family meetings.
“Gubei No. 1 has a tranquil environment, very suitable for recuperating!”
Li Qingshu took a deep breath, suppressing the surging emotions in her heart, and looked at the bandaged wound on Gao Ze’s left arm, saying, “Mr. Gao, how is your recovery progressing?”
“The injury is not serious; I should recover in two days!”
Being with a girl like Li Qingshu always made one feel relaxed. Gao Ze glanced at his watch and asked, “It’s so late now, where are you going?”
“I have an appointment with a WeChat advertising project manager to discuss cooperation!”
“After our Sheep A Sheep game mini-program version launched on WeChat tonight, the first day’s top-up revenue is only about two to three hundred thousand, which isn't very good!”
When discussing investments and business, Li Qingshu’s face finally brightened, and she said, “I want to purchase WeChat traffic for promotion and heavily market our game!”
“But it’s already nine o’clock at night; go tomorrow!”
“You are a girl, it’s not safe this late.”
A hint of shame welled up in Gao Ze’s heart; most of his energy was devoted to police work, so the burden of business investments fell on Li Qingshu, a twenty-something college student who hadn't even graduated yet.
Now, Li Qingshu even had to go discuss business cooperation late at night; he, as a hands-off boss, truly resembled Huang Shiren!
It seems he still cares and worries about her.
A warm current flowed through Li Qingshu’s heart, and she smiled, saying, “Mr. Gao, you don’t have to worry about me. The advertising project person is a woman, and we are just meeting for a SPA tonight to bond and discuss business!”
“You should still be vigilant with people of the same gender. Don’t overwork yourself; go tomorrow!”
“Mr. Gao, truly, nothing will happen. That advertising project manager’s friends circle shows she has a husband and children!”
“Rest well, be obedient!”
“Although our game’s first-day top-up revenue isn't high today, I’ve played the game myself, and its quality is excellent; it will definitely become a hit!”
Gao Ze had played Sheep A Sheep yesterday. From his more than ten years of gaming experience in his previous life, although the game’s gameplay was similar to many others, playing to the second level easily made players addicted and willing to spend money.
If operated well, this game could very likely become a hit.
“Qing Shu, why are you leaving in such a hurry? Aren’t you even going to eat the meal Mom made?”
Just as Li Qingshu was about to speak, the elevator they had just been on chimed open, and out walked a woman in a light purple spaghetti strap long dress, with a fair, delicate oval face and long, wavy tea-colored hair, exuding the mature charm of a ripened woman.
“Oh—”
Ms. Zhao looked at the handsome young man in front of her daughter, then carefully observed the genuine joyful smile on Li Qingshu’s face: “Qing Shu, is this your friend? He’s so handsome?”
“Aren’t you going to introduce him to Mom?”
Li Qingshu’s expression changed slightly, like a cat caught stealing fish, but since her mother, Ms. Zhao, had walked up to her, she had no choice but to introduce him: “Mom, this is my friend, Mr. Gao Ze!”
“Mr. Gao, this is my mother!”
Gao Ze looked at Ms. Zhao, momentarily unsure how to address her. Li Qingshu’s mother truly looked young, appearing only in her early thirties; they looked like sisters standing together.
Moreover, she had fair skin, a beautiful face, and long legs, exuding a peach-like fragrance all over. No wonder she could charm that billionaire tycoon.
“My name is Ms. Zhao. If you don’t mind, you can call me Aunt Zhao!”
Ms. Zhao extended her fair, tender hand, her fingers well-manicured, like tender bamboo shoots that could be squeezed for water, and a gentle smile appeared at the corner of her lips.
“Hello, Aunt Zhao. I almost thought I should call you Sister Zhao!”
“Mr. Gao really knows how to talk. I’m already thirty-seven this year!”
Ms. Zhao giggled incessantly, her laughter as clear as silver bells, and her autumn-water-like eyes fell on Gao Ze, as she playfully and gossipy asked, “Qing Shu, what is Mr. Gao’s relationship to you?”
“Tonight, you were so angry with me that you wouldn’t eat, and when I went back to your room, I saw your pillow was wet. Now you’re smiling so happily the moment you see Mr. Gao. Could it be that you’ve fallen in love with Mr. Gao?”
In an instant.
Both Gao Ze and Li Qingshu’s expressions froze.
