After the rebirth, I became the favorite of the paranoid boss

Chapter 99 Why did you save me that day?

When Tang Xiaoqi was looking at Lu Qi who was doing the cleaning in a daze, grandma came up at some point, and without Tang Xiaoqi not paying attention, she slapped Tang Xiaoqi on the shoulder.

Grandma's strength wasn't too strong, but it made Tang Xiaoqi scream in fright. People who didn't know thought Tang Xiaoqi was beaten by grandma, and it was very forceful.

"Ah... grandma... why are you here?"

Grandma said helplessly: "You guys are throwing things and screaming again, can I come up and take a look?"

After grandma finished speaking, she glanced at Lu Qi who was holding a broom and turning to look at them in the room, and suddenly couldn't help but start to teach Tang Xiaoqi a lesson.

"Xiaoqi is such a good boyfriend, you can't find it even with a lantern, and you are still doing it everywhere, be careful to lose your boyfriend! Go and pack up your things together and have dinner."

Grandma patted Tang Xiaoqi's arm in disgust, signaling her to hurry over and help Lu Qi clean up together.

Since her grandmother was at the scene, Tang Xiaoqi could only stand up, pretending to be cute and pitiful, and walked towards Lu Qi.

"Is there anything I can help you with?"

Lu Qi glanced at the messy floor to be cleaned, and refused Tang Xiaoqi's help.

"I'm almost done, why don't you go down with grandma to have dinner first, and I'll come down later."

Tang Xiaoqi deliberately shrugged at her grandmother and said, "Grandma, he won't let me help, why don't we go down and have dinner together, so that Lu Qi can eat delicious food made by grandma after he's busy~"

Tang Xiaoqi happily embraced her grandma's arm, and led her slowly down the stairs.

"Let me tell you, don't bully Xiao Qi all the time, I'm willing to take the stick for you, what a good boy!"

"I know... I won't do it next time."

Grandma saw the fight for ice cream in the kitchen last time, so Tang Xiaoqi couldn't clean it up. Due to grandma's conservative values, Tang Xiaoqi could only admit that Lu Qi was her boyfriend.

So, in front of grandma, they pretended to be lovers. After all, Lu Qi needed an excuse to stay to recuperate, but a boyfriend was an excellent excuse.

In grandma's perception, Lu Qi was not some young master of the Lu family, but Tang Xiaoqi's boyfriend.

……

After the evening, Tang Xiaoqi, who finished washing the dishes, couldn't find Lu Qi anywhere, and finally found Lu Qi on the balcony.

Looking at Lu Qi's downcast back, Tang Xiaoqi obviously felt lonely.

Looking up at the starry sky, Lu Qi had already noticed Tang Xiaoqi's arrival, so he was not at all surprised that she was sitting next to him.

"What's wrong? Homesick?"

Lu Qi didn't make a sound, but just quietly looked into the distance.

Tang Xiaoqi suddenly felt an embarrassment in the air.

"You can go home soon, go to bed early!"

After Tang Xiaoqi finished speaking in a hurry, just when she was about to stand up and leave, Lu Qi's deep voice suddenly came from next to her ear: "Why did you save me that day?"

"Huh? That day?"

Tang Xiaoqi was suddenly a little dazed and couldn't react.

"The day I fell into the lake."

Lu Qi took the initiative to tell Tang Xiaoqi about the day he fell into the lake.

Before rebirth, Lu Qi always wanted to know the answer to this question.

Tang Xiaoqi was asked coldly and was embarrassed on the spot.

After all, it can't be said that it's because of money, right?Because he knew that Lu Qi would give her a reward, right?Although the reward this time is indeed much higher than before rebirth.

Is it too honest to answer because of money?Hurt Lu Qi's weak heart?
