Chapter 164

A glass of water had little effect, so he drank another large glass, but drinking water didn't work very well.

He put down the cup and was about to take a shower, but when he turned around, he found Qiao Ai standing in front of him, with his hands behind his back, looking at him with his head tilted.

"Brother, you seem very thirsty, do you want me to squeeze a glass of juice for you?"

"No, I'm full."

He bypassed Qiao Ai and left the kitchen, went back to the room and closed the door, took a set of home clothes from the suitcase, and went into the bathroom to take a shower.

The temperature in the north drops earlier than in the south. In November, there is a big temperature difference between morning and evening.

Jiang Che took a cold shower, which aroused goosebumps all over his body, and only then suppressed the roiling hotness in his body.

After drying his hair, he put on a coat and walked out of the room. He glanced at Qiao Ai's room while pulling out Jiang Lan's number on the phone. Zi' was so inseparable, he didn't dial the number in a hurry, and knocked on her door lightly, but she didn't move, as if she was asleep.

He walked into her room with light steps and confirmed that she was really asleep, and he showed a helpless smile.When she came back, she had already slept in the car, and she was still able to fall asleep.

He pulled the quilt over her body, quietly exited the room, and closed the door behind him.

Contacted Jiang Lan on the phone and made an appointment to have dinner together in the evening. Jiang Che lay down on the sofa in the living room and played games for a while. When he felt sleepy and wanted to sleep for a while, Jiang Sheng called.

He picked it up, and when Jiang Sheng said that there was a social gathering at night, he smiled and teased: "Busy people, don't worry about us, we will have dinner with Jiang Lan outside at night."

Jiang Sheng smiled, "As long as there is an arrangement, where is Qiao Ai?"

"Fell asleep."

"Have you settled down with your work?"

"not yet."

"Why are you in no hurry?"

"Because there is no shortage of money."

Jiang Sheng: ...just tell the truth.

He has no shortage of money than Jiang Che, but he is still working hard. Thinking of this, he couldn't help criticizing Jiang Che, "Young man, don't be too lazy."

"Old man, obediently go to work and support us, I'm sleepy and want to sleep for a while."

"Okay, young people lie down at home and sleep comfortably, and the old things will earn money for you."

Jiang Che laughed, and hung up the phone without saying anything else.

Putting down the phone, he closed his eyes and meditated.

After answering Jiang Sheng's phone call, his drowsiness was swept away, and he suddenly felt refreshed.

Lying on the sofa for a while, Qiao Ai's slender waist, straight legs, and fair nape of the neck always flashed in my mind... The body slowly became hot again, as if a fire was burning.

He opened his eyes, kneaded the space between his brows, and told himself not to think any more.

Qiao Ai had just turned [-], and was actually still a child, but he just had such a feeling for her, wanted her, wanted her crazily.

He couldn't help himself a little, and couldn't help but glance at Qiao Ai's room.

In desperation, he had to get up, go back to his room, change into his sports clothes, and run a few laps in a nearby park.

After sweating, he felt much better. It was almost the time he made an appointment with Jiang Lan. He ran home and took a shower. After getting dressed, he woke up Qiao Ai.

Qiao Ai had already fallen asleep, looked at Jiang Che in formal attire in a daze, and murmured, "Are you going to the engagement banquet?"

Jiang Che rolled his eyes, being teased by her, "Dinning with Jiang Lan."

"Shall I go too?"

"Of course I'm going."

Qiao Ai let out an 'oh', got up obediently, washed her face, and tidied up her appearance.

She wanted to change into a more formal outfit to go out with Jiang Che, but Jiang Che said that children can dress casually.

He said she was a child, and she was upset, but she didn't show it.

Arriving at the appointed restaurant, Qiao Ai thought that he could see Ji Fang, but Jiang Lan did not expect Jiang Lan to attend the appointment alone.

Seeing her, Jiang Lan rubbed her head with his big hands, and rubbed her head a few times, making her carefully arranged hairstyle look like a chicken nest.

She looked at Jiang Lan expressionlessly, and out of politeness, she called uncle.

Jiang Lan raised her eyebrows immediately, "What did you call me?"

"elder brother."

"It's almost there."

"..."

Jiang Che straightened her hair, rang the call bell on the table, and called the waiter to come and order.

"Why didn't Ji Fang come with you?" He asked while flipping through the menu.

"Don't mention it, women are troublesome. Before getting engaged, you need beauty treatment, maintenance, full-body SPA, and shopping. As soon as you hand over the financial power to her, she starts to squander. Tell me about this prodigal bitch, who hasn't entered yet. The door of my Jiang family doesn’t know how to restrain itself.”

Jiang Lan complained, but her face was full of happiness.

"What about you, have you settled down yet?"

Jiang Che shook his head and said, "We'll talk about it after attending your engagement banquet."

"We're still getting married after the engagement banquet."

"Has the wedding date been set?"

Jiang Lan shook her head, "I'm in a hurry, but Ji Fang is not in a hurry. She said to book the marriage first, and then wait until the marriage. She will be assessed by the teacher soon, and she is busier than me."

After the three ordered, the waiter brought a pot of coffee.

Jiang Lan picked up the coffee pot, poured coffee into the cup and asked Jiang Che, "Your personal problems are still the same?"

"No."

Jiang Lan was surprised, "No, it means...you have a girlfriend?"

Jiang Che smiled lightly, "Guess."

"Guess you are a big-headed ghost, can't you tell me quickly?"

"I'll tell you later."

"Come on, I'm curious, are you talking about a girlfriend?"

Hearing this topic, Qiao Ai's nerves tensed.

As far as she knew, Jiang Che had never had any contact with the opposite sex since he arrived in Jiangbei, except for her.

Could it be that he met another woman?

"We'll talk about it later." Jiang Che dismissed Jiang Lan perfunctorily, and handed him the engagement present, "For you."

The box is small, square, and the outer packaging is very delicate.

Jiang Lan took it with a smile, "What?"

"a book."

"what book?"

"Daddy's self-cultivation."

Jiang Lan's eyes widened:? ? ?
He unwrapped the gift in disbelief, and the first thing he saw was a book, the title of which was - Self-Cultivation of Grandma.

Just as he was about to say something to Jiang Che, a bad friend, he discovered that there was a very famous tie under the book.

He made a 'cut', "If you give a tie, you can give it a tie, and any books."

"You will need it in the future."

"..."

Looking at Jiang Lan's blushing face, Qiao Ai resisted the urge to laugh, lowered her head and stirred the pasta on the plate with a fork, eating slowly.

After not seeing each other for a long time, Jiang Lan and Jiang Che chatted quite a lot, Qiao Ai couldn't get in the way, and after eating the pasta, she ordered another dessert.

"Yu Siman submitted his resignation." Jiang Lan's words suddenly attracted Qiao Ai's attention.

Jiang Che was a little surprised, "She wants to resign?"

"After you left, she submitted several resignation reports. She just got approved this month, and she will officially resign next month."
