924: 672 Central Air Conditioning 924: 672 Central Air Conditioning River City.
Jinhai Industry’s Acting Chair had once again graced this city of strategic importance on the business map.
Under the leadership of Duan Zhongxin, the head of the region, the new energy vehicle factory had been running smoothly.
After the necessary social functions and inspections, the free-ti Shi Qianxi arranged to et two “kids.”
“Sister Qianqian, where’s my brother?
How co you didn’t co with him this ti?”
Compared to their first eting, Hong Xiaoyu had beco a bit more outgoing.
“Your brother is a busy man, I have no idea where he is.”
The increasingly commanding presence of Shi Qianxi, clad in a suit, pants, and high heels, asked, “Haven’t you been in touch with him?”
Hong Xiaoyu shook his head.
He rarely ssaged his cousin, afraid of being a nuisance.
“That man of yours, really heartless, doesn’t even care about his own little brother.”
Shi Qianxi sighed.
“Pfft.”
Duan Xueying, sitting next to Hong Xiaoyu, couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Shi Qianxi shifted her gaze towards her, then back at Hong Xiaoyu, a hint of playful amusent flickering in her eyes.
“Why did you two co together?”
“I drove to pick up Xiao Yu.”
The daughter of the formidable official from Jinhai Industry, Duan Xueying, explained naturally.
“Xiao Yu, you’re a man, how can you let a girl pick you up?”
Shi Qianxi looked reproachful.
Hong Xiaoyu’s face imdiately turned red as he awkwardly said, “Sister Qianqian, I don’t have a car…”
Indeed.
His family circumstances naturally couldn’t compare to Duan Xueying’s.
Not to ntion a car.
He didn’t even have a driver’s license.
“I’ll gift you one.”
The ever-generous Shi Qianxi, who upon a first eting offered a car, remained consistent in her largesse.
Hong Xiaoyu’s face grew even redder as he quickly shook his head, “No, no need, thank you, Sister Qianqian.”
“You can’t always expect Xue Ling to drive, can you?
If people see it too often, they’ll surely start talking, especially at your age.”
Shi Qianxi spoke with the tone of an elder, “Besides, your brother isn’t even here.”
The stronghold of revolution often crumbles from within.
To woo a woman, starting with her best friend can be a good approach.
And to deal with a man, it might be worth winning over his family first.
Duan Xueying smiled without speaking, elegantly browsing the nu of the French restaurant.
The epito of an elegant young lady, she embodied it completely.
Hong Xiaoyu found it hard to cope with such forwardness and could only say, “Sister Qianqian, even if you gave a car, I couldn’t drive it, I don’t have a license.”
Shi Qianxi paused, then laughed, “Well, you should hurry up and learn, driving is a basic skill for a man.”
She added, addressing Duan Xueying, “Xue Ling, you shouldn’t spoil him either.
If a guy can’t drive, just let him take the subway.”
This lady truly didn’t see herself as an outsider, speaking as if she were already his sister-in-law.
Of course.
Perhaps Hong Xiaoyu inwardly felt the sa and didn’t offer a word of rebuttal.
“How far have you two developed?”
Despite having taken over Jin Hai, Miss Shi hadn’t changed much in her straightforwardness, making not just Hong Xiaoyu but even the composed Duan Xueying blush.
She lowered her head, cutlery in hand, silent.
Shi Qianxi naturally turned her attention to Hong Xiaoyu.
He was beyond awkward.
He wasn’t Jiang Chen, lacking that enviable composure of Jiang Chen’s, and even if it had been Jiang Chen from his freshman year sitting there, he probably couldn’t have remained calm.
“I, I…”
“What ‘I’?
Just answer the question when you’re asked.”
Shi Qianxi was assertive to the point of being overbearing, probably because she saw that the other’s brother was not around.
Hong Xiaoyu couldn’t help but glance sideways at Duan Xueying, but the latter was just bowing her head eating her al, showing no intention to help relieve the tension.
“…Xiao Yu and I are good friends.”
Hong Xiaoyu stamred, finally managing to answer the question.
“You should learn more from your brother.”
Shi Qianxi said with a aningful tone, then she also picked up her knife and fork.
Hong Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief, and with great difficulty, he finished the al amid the tense and awkward atmosphere.
“Take the subway back to school yourself.
No problem, right?”
After paying the bill, Shi Qianxi asked Hong Xiaoyu.
“No, no problem.”
Hong Xiaoyu hurriedly replied.
“Alright.”
Shi Qianxi nodded.
Exiting the restaurant, Hong Xiaoyu said goodbye to the two won and then walked alone towards the subway station.
“Give a lift.”
Shi Qianxi obviously had sothing she wanted to discuss alone with Duan Xueying.
Tesla Model Y.
This gem of Jinhai Industry’s River City branch office was quite low-key.
“You have known each other for quite so ti now.
Be honest, what do you feel about him?”
Shi Qianxi still had the awareness of being an “older sister” and didn’t let Duan Xueying drive.
She moved the car out of the parking spot and asked while driving.
“He’s nice.”
“What does ‘nice’ an?
That kid is not like his brother.
His brother likes to play dumb, but he is genuinely dumb.
But you’re different from him.”
Duan Xueying couldn’t help but chuckle, “Sister Qianqian, be careful Hong Yu might tell Brother Jiang Chen.”
“Do you think that kid would dare?”
Shi Qianxi drove unconcernedly, but then seed to feel her words lacked force and looked at Duan Xueying, adding, “Even if he tattles, I’m not afraid.
His brother never dares to raise his voice in front of .”
Duan Xueying seed to take it seriously and nodded, looking straight ahead.
“You girl, you still haven’t answered my question.
Do you or do you not have feelings for Xiao Yu?”
Shi Qianxi asked laughingly while driving,
“I think he’s a good person.”
Duan Xueying smoothed her hair.
“So you do have feelings for him?”
Unable to resist laughing, Duan Xueying said, “Sister Qianqian, this kind of thing isn’t decided by just one person…”
“I know, his brother and I both support you two.”
“Sister Qianqian, do you have a hidden agenda trying to match with Xiao Yu?”
Duan Xueying tilted her head playfully, teasing her with a joking tone in an attempt to turn the tables.
Shi Qianxi paused for a mont, then casually replied, “What hidden agenda could I have?
I just think Xiao Yu is a good kid, honest and simple.”
Duan Xueying smiled without saying anything further, not pressing the issue, and took out her phone, intending to play so music.
A hot news notification appeared on the screen.
[Scandalous Photos of Yin Dailan Leaked]
Duan Xueying instinctively clicked on it, and the newscast with a catchy background music started to play automatically.
“Let see.”
Hearing the news, Shi Qianxi leaned over.
Duan Xueying handed over the phone.
Shi Qianxi took the phone with one hand, driving with the other, and looked at the news.
It was lucky there were no caras around, or else she would definitely be penalized.
The video was short, but the content was quite explosive.
The main character in the many photos was easily recognized as Yin Dailan, the current trending starlet.
The shoot definitely wasn’t recent; it looked like it was from a ti before she beca famous.
The dolled up Yin Dailan wore various revealing outfits, sitting beside different n in rather intimate poses.
“Sister Qianqian, are you still into celebrity gossip?”
Duan Xueying was surprised.
Shi Qianxi gave a cold laugh and mumbled, sowhat enigmatically, “Central air conditioning, huh.
That’s really sothing.”
