Chapter 226: Chapter 224: Striking Right into the Core Issue of the Soul

"He might be handsome, but with a blazing ’no trespassing’ sign written all over him, I’m sane enough not to go looking for trouble."

Qiao rolled her eyes and recalled Fu Jinghen in her memory, which didn’t seem as terrifying as Jiang Yao described.

"Really? I don’t think so."

"That’s just what you think. According to the descriptions in those overbearing CEO novels, it’s like—all the gentleness Fu Jinghen has is probably given to you. That day when we came back, you were moving around in the car, and I just made a comment. The way President Fu looked at me then reminded me of the unforgettable glare of the class teacher spying through the glass window at the back door of the classroom when we were in school. Wait, why are you flashing that rippling smile again?"

Jiang Yao described to Qiao, with an expressionless face, the day they returned to Beicheng and Fu Jinghen came to pick them up at the airport. Yet, as she spoke each word, she saw the grin on the other side growing bigger and by the end, Jiang Yao felt like Qiao’s shining white teeth were almost flying out of her mouth.

Qiao twisted her body and then, in a very pretentious manner, stamped her foot, "Oh, I’m sorry, my fiancé is just too protective. I’ve made you laugh."

Jiang Yao chuckled coldly twice, "Yes, congratulations on finding such a protective fiancé who looks past the old grudges to shield and protect you."

It had been nearly twenty minutes since Qiao replied to Fu Jinghen’s message; seeing that she hadn’t come down yet, he sent another one—

[Fu Jinghen: Not down yet?]

[Qiaoqiao’s not full: Coming, coming, what’s the rush? Don’t you know you should be patient when waiting for a girl?]

[Qiaoqiao’s not full: This message of yours could spark a bomb, you know? If it were another woman, she might have already started feeling you are impatient, escalating to wondering if you don’t love me anymore—that core issue striking deep into the soul.]

[Qiaoqiao’s not full: Luckily, it’s me, understanding and considerate.]

[Fu Jinghen: .....]

[Fu Jinghen: Whatever suits you.]

Only then did Qiao satisfyingly put away her phone, hooked Jiang Yao’s wrist, and walked out, "Let’s go, my fiancé has been waiting for us in the parking lot for almost an hour."

"Did you save for him in your past life or something, for him to come to you this life to repay the favor?"

Qiao’s face revealed a full smile of love and affection, triggering Jiang Yao, who jabbed at her while walking out with, "Yeah, it really is rare to find men like President Fu maintaining such integrity nowadays. Not to mention he’s wealthy and good-looking. Even if he just wanted to fool around, a wave of his finger would have a line of women toppling over each other to get to him. Yet, he only has eyes for you, the little tender grass."

Jiang Yao casually marveled at her friend and colleague’s damn good luck. Listening, Qiao’s mouth corners that were lifted high nearly reaching her ears suddenly tightened a bit.

"Because Fu Jinghen is just an old-fashioned man, commitment and responsibility are carved into his very bones. If it were you engaged to him now, he would treasure you just the same."

As a worker pushed a trolley out from the corridor, Jiang Yao shielded Qiao as they moved to the side, not noticing the odd tone and expression on Qiao’s face as she said these words, thinking she was just making a casual joke.

"Wow, that kind of man is even rarer, a real antique."
