88: Chapter 88 A Stunningly Beautiful and Adorable Fox
Inside the luxury hotel.
Lu Jiangyun steered the conversation, chatting about many things that Zhao Qingyan had never heard of, while taking the opportunity to introduce her to his company, Yuntian Technology.
In truth, Zhao Qingyan did not admire the strong, because none of her peers were as strong as she was.
But her uncle was truly strong to an excessive degree.
Just turned forty, he had already started from scratch to build a massive company, possessed a net worth of hundreds of millions, and was well-known in the industry.
Moreover, he was working in the high-tech sector; he was truly worthy of her admiration.
"Xiao Yan, Uncle is planning to increase investment in optical research. If you only want to do research, would you consider this field?"
"Hmm… then I'll make this my second major."
Zhao Qingyan readily agreed.
Lu Jiangyun laughed with gratification, affectionately patting her head, thinking to himself that his precious niece, whom he had spoiled since she was small, had truly grown up.
If Shen Weiyue had been there, he surely would have been shocked out of his wits.
Zhao the Fox actually letting someone touch her fox head, even if that person was her own uncle, was truly unbelievable.
After the three of them finished their meal, Lu Jiangyun suggested going for a stroll in the city center.
He wanted to take Lu Chunyue and Zhao Qingyan shopping.
An elder sister is like a mother; his niece was so outstanding that they could buy anything they wanted, even an apartment.
Zhao Qingyan had no idea what her uncle was thinking, so she shook her head and said, "Uncle, this afternoon won't work. I have something to take care of in a little while."
"Baby, what do you have to do?" Lu Chunyue asked, very confused. They hadn't made any other plans for this trip, and her daughter hadn't mentioned having any business to attend to.
"I have a friend here. I'm going to go see him in a bit; we made a last-minute appointment to meet up and say hello."
"Oh?"
Lu Jiangyun's eyes lit up. Something was going on here!
Since when did this girl, Xiao Yan, take the initiative to meet people? Could it be that she met an online friend here and was meeting them in person?
It seemed quite possible for someone with a withdrawn personality to have an online romance, so he had to take this seriously!
The brother and sister exchanged a glance, both of their gazes sharpening.
Lu Chunyue's spark of gossip ignited, and she was about to continue questioning.
Lu Jiangyun quickly signaled her to stop with his eyes, then looked at Zhao Qingyan with a smile, saying solicitously, "Oh, meeting a friend is a good thing. Where are you meeting? I'll arrange for a driver to take you. You just arrived and don't know the way; it's safer and more convenient to have a driver take you."
"Uncle, it's not far, just nearby."
"It's still better to get a ride. It's thirty-nine degrees outside; it's very easy to get sunburned. Girls need to pay attention to sun protection; if you're not careful, you'll get tanned."
"Oh."
The intonation was flat, and Zhao Qingyan didn't overthink it, readily agreeing.
At this moment, Shen the Donkey, whom she guessed must have been baked into a piece of charcoal by the sun, was on his way.
Lu Jiangyun called the driver over and gave him strict instructions. Zhao Qingyan then got into the boss's exclusive car.
"That's right, Xiao Yan should be riding in a Maybach; that's what a 'human flower of wealth and nobility' looks like. Sis, let's have brother-in-law buy her a sports car when we get back!"
"Do you want your brother-in-law to die?" Lu Chunyue glared at him crossly. This younger brother was a troublemaker at heart.
"It's just getting a car, it's not that serious…"
"What do you mean 'not that serious'? Your brother-in-law's salary is only so much; you want him to commit corruption and bribery?"
"Forget it, forget it, I'll arrange it for Xiao Yan!"
Lu Jiangyun put his hands on his hips and waved his hand grandly. Lu Chunyue grabbed his ear and scolded, "Qingyan has just started college; she doesn't like to be so high-profile. Don't cause trouble. I think you need a woman to keep you in check. How about I set you up on a blind date?"
"Ow, ow, ow, let go, Sis, it's going to break…"
Lu Jiangyun cried out exaggeratedly, but his eyes were full of childhood dependence as he shouted, "If I wanted to get married, why would I need a blind date? There are plenty of women."
"Give you an inch and you take a mile. Stop being a playboy. Getting married and having a woman to take care of you and keep you in check is better in the long run."
"There's no need, no need to drag someone else down. I don't want to manage a marriage or family either."
As Lu Jiangyun was speaking, he suddenly clutched his chest and coughed a few times. Lu Chunyue felt both heartache and didn't know what to say.
The two siblings watched as the Maybach disappeared around the corner.
"Brother, where do you think Qingyan got a friend here?"
"I don't know, but we'll find out soon."
Lu Jiangyun had already instructed the driver to act according to the situation; the mastermind was about to reveal their true form.
...
The meeting place Shen Weiyue and Zhao Qingyan had agreed upon was Central Park.
These two were quite eccentric; the meeting spot for these young people was actually not a coffee shop or a dessert place.
Yet, one dared to suggest it, and the other dared to agree.
Shen Weiyue arrived very early. Estimating that the Fox would be a while, he squatted by the roadside to watch an old man play chess.
He hadn't expected that this Fox would have a private car to take her there.
"Stop here, I'll walk over myself. Thank you."
Zhao Qingyan had already spotted him from afar, so she asked the driver to stop at an intersection over a hundred meters away.
"Very well, Miss Zhao. Whenever you need to go back, just give me a call. I'll be waiting right here."
The driver respectfully opened the door for her, sighing in his heart.
Director Lu's niece was truly as beautiful as a celestial being. No wonder he had been instructed to observe closely to see if any sketchy, yellow-haired punks appeared.
The driver was a former scout; by observing Zhao Qingyan's eyes and expression, he had already roughly determined who the 'yellow-haired punk' was.
The guy in the white t-shirt squatting by the roadside—it definitely had to be him!
Shen Weiyue had his back turned to them, so naturally, he didn't see the Fox descending from the luxury car looking like a wealthy, beautiful woman. He was still gesturing and criticizing the old man.
"Old man, take his horse! What are you hesitating for? Blast it with your cannon!"
"Eat my foot. If I move my cannon, this side will be empty. They're lying in ambush waiting for me."
"What are you afraid of? Trading a cannon for his horse means he won't have a horse anymore."
"No, young man, why does what you say sound so awkward? What do you mean 'no horse'? Just watch, don't blabber. A true gentleman doesn't speak while watching a chess game."
"Hehe, old man, you're sweating, aren't you? Did I find your weakness? Are you feeling guilty?"
The old man opposite was furious and reached to grab his flip-flop to smack him, cursing, "You little brat, why is your mouth so loose? With your attitude, you'll never find a girlfriend."
"That's not for sure. Old man, do you have a granddaughter? I can…"
Just as Shen Weiyue was speaking, he heard a cold, clear voice from behind: "Shen Weiyue."
He turned his head. The Fox stood there prettily with her hands behind her back, so dazzling that it was blinding.
Perhaps because they were in a different place, Zhao the Fox had changed her usual style today; her high ponytail had become long, flowing hair.
Most importantly, she was actually wearing an extremely lazy-style outfit.
What kind of style was it?
An off-shoulder lace top and matching shorts in a light pink hue. The collar and cuffs had hollow lace patterns, and she wore a pair of white sandals, generously revealing her perfect, slender, jade-like legs.
Her figure was superb, her skin like congealed jade, glowing with whiteness.
This fucking explosive.
Shen Weiyue's eyes widened, fearing he had misidentified the person.
This state vividly recreated the scene on the pedestrian street when he first saw Zhao Qingyan wearing skinny jeans.
Damn, this Fox is so beautiful.
In his previous life and the first half of this one, Director Shen had seen it all and encountered countless women, but none could be as stunning as her.
Such a lazy outfit paired with her cold, aloof temperament was like a pink strawberry ice cream in summer, refreshing the mind and making one want to take a bite.
Shen Weiyue was looking at Zhao Qingyan, and this Fox was also looking at him.
However, while his gaze was one of astonishment, her brows were slightly furrowed.
"Shen the Donkey, why haven't you tanned at all?"
