C63 He Couldn't Touch It
His eyes were burning hot, and Qiao Lu De's face was red. His heart was beating fast and he looked at him nervously, unconsciously swallowing his saliva.
Dan Cheng Hao pursed his lips and smiled. "Alright, let's go."
Walking towards the scene with Dan Cheng Hao, Qiao Lu said with a smile, "The tree wants peace but the wind never stops blowing. I have already caused a lot of trouble in Ning Yu, and you still act so ambiguous with me. Do you really not want me to live a good life? I heard that a lot of women in Ning Yuan secretly call you'husband' behind your back."
Dan Cheng Hao raised his eyebrows, "When did I have so many wives? Why didn't I know?"
"You're in love with a woman. I'm really afraid that one day, they will form a group to come to Ning Yu to tickle me!" Qiao Lu chuckled and said.
Hearing her words, Dan Cheng Hao looked at her with interest and asked with a playful smile, "Jiao Qiao, I don't know if it's just my imagination, but why do I feel jealous when I hear your words?"
Qiao Lu De's face was awkward. He curled his lips and snorted guiltily, "I think you are old and have a bad nose. How can there be any jealousy in this five-star hotel?"
Dan Cheng Hao touched his nose and smiled cunningly: "Oh, then I might have smelled wrongly."
He and Dan Cheng Hao arrived at the scene. As soon as they entered, Qiao Lu De looked at the setup that was like a talent show and exclaimed in a low voice, "Damn, it really looks like that."
Dan Cheng Hao raised his hand and knocked on her head lightly. "When has Ning Yuan ever been petty when he does things? Of course, he has to be the most professional. Don't be so surprised. Keep it for later use."
"Is there anything else?" Just as he finished asking, Qi Jia walked over to Dan Cheng Hao and reported: "Director Dan, the judges have arrived. Do you want to go over and say hello?"
Dan Cheng Hao nodded his head, then turned to Qiao Lu De and said, "You can go over and sit first. I will be here later, don't be nervous."
Qiao Lu De's eyes followed their figures. When he saw the person who shook hands with Dan Cheng Hao, he was so surprised that he covered his mouth! Oh my god, isn't this judge too famous? There were three of them in total, and they were all leading figures in the dance world. Tsk tsk, this Ning Yuan was really generous. Even the dance competition of the employees had to be so extravagant. He was really rich!
After finding his seat, Qiao Lu did not need to look to feel that someone beside her was starting to pay attention to her, and there were already people covering their mouths and chattering. The small interaction with Dan Cheng Hao just now was naturally seen by others. She picked up the juice on the table and took a sip, not paying much attention to it. Just like what Dan Cheng Hao said, she had to learn how to shut her ears.
But just because you closed your ears, it didn't mean that no one would come over and open them. Then, someone came over to greet you. At first, Qiao Lu De thought that she was here to provoke and ridicule him, and she was still on her guard. However, when she heard the flattery of the person who came, she couldn't help but laugh bitterly in her heart. It was really like what Dan Cheng Hao had said earlier: There will be people who will curry favor with you. At that time, she didn't think much of it, but now, she was convinced.
"I was wondering why I haven't seen Sister Xiao Qiao before. So it's Ning Yu!" The person covered her mouth and laughed. Qiao Lu De ignored her, but she did not feel embarrassed. She still sat there and tried to find something to say.
Perhaps it was because the people around them saw the two of them chatting passionately, but Qiao Lu didn't put on any airs, so he also came over and started to chat with them.
"Sister Xiao Qiao, how long have you been with our big boss? Now that the two of you are here together today, do you have some good news to announce?" The woman's imagination was always boundless.
Qiao Lu De said helplessly, "Everyone, everyone, listen to me again. I am not CEO Shan's girlfriend, I am not CEO Shan's girlfriend. You have misunderstood!"
"How is that possible?" Someone said, "I've seen the news on the financial channel earlier. It says that you are CEO Shan's fiancée. He said it's at the end of the year, and he seems to be getting married. It has already been announced to the public, how could it be wrong?"
Qiao Lu De helplessly held his forehead with his hand, not wanting to say anything else. She kept trying to clear her relationship with him in front of Dan Cheng Hao's female employees, making it seem as if she despised him. She was afraid that these female employees would not be able to help but scold her as a slut!
She stood up with a smile, "I'm sorry, I'll have to leave first."
She didn't dare to say that she was going to the washroom. She was afraid that once she finished speaking, her sisters would shout, "I'll go with you!"
She pulled herself out of the room and walked into the corridor. Only then did she catch her breath. Just as she was about to walk around, she just happened to see Chu Xiao and Fang Yun walking towards her together.
The two opposite her also saw her, and they were obviously stunned for a moment. Fang Yun walked closer with a smile in her eyes and asked with a familiar expression, "Is Miss Jo also here to participate in the dance competition? You have to perform well."
Qiao Lu knew that a small civil servant like Chu Xiao would definitely not be able to participate in the competition. The only one who could bring him here was Fang Yun. What did she do?
Looking at Qiao Lu's probing and confused gaze, Fang Yun introduced herself in a considerate manner, "Maybe Miss Jo doesn't know yet. I am the sales manager of the Prosperity Group. This time, I represent the company as your guest in the competition."
So that's how it was. Qiao Lu nodded indifferently. He didn't even look at Chu Xiao as he walked past them and left.
Not long after they sat down in a small square hall, Dan Cheng Hao sent her a WeChat message: Where are you? Why didn't I see you?
Qiao Lu De released the depressed feeling in his heart and replied: It's too noisy inside. I'll go back for a breather.
He slowly walked back to the banquet hall. At this moment, the lights, the host, and the judges were all ready to take their seats. Fang Yun sat in the guest seating area, and next to her was Dan Cheng Hao. At this moment, the two of them were talking with their heads lowered and smiles on their faces.
Qiao Lu De's eyes were stimulated by this scene, and she stared at Dan Cheng Hao as if she was looking at a traitor. Qi Jia walked to her side at some point and said to her: "Quickly stop looking at me with that malicious gaze of yours."
"I think he's even breaking the law, so what?" Qiao Lu De said snappily as he walked towards his seat.
Qi Jia followed her and said, "It's not against the law. I'm just afraid that you will be worried when you see it." After that, she also said in a resentful tone, "I didn't expect Chu Xiao and this bitch to come over."
"Qi Jia, I'm fine. My heart has long passed. Hurry up and go do what you need to do."
Qi Jia looked at her face and asked: "You seem to be angry, you can't be jealous because you saw Dan Cheng Hao sitting with that slut, right?"
"Her name is Fang Yun. Don't call her a slut. You make it sound so low-class. "
Qi Jia curled her lips. "Just run away from my question. Alright, I won't ask anymore. You know best what you're thinking."
Qiao Lu De glanced at Dan Cheng Hao again and returned to his seat with a muffled voice.
The host announced the stage enthusiastically. Qiao Lu De looked down at the order of the stage. She and Dan Cheng Hao were scheduled to be the last two in the finale, which made her feel a little pressure in her heart.
After watching the first few couples' performances, their dancing was quite ordinary, and the score given by the judges was also very average, which increased Qiao Lu De's confidence. She inadvertently glanced in the direction of Dan Cheng Hao, as if they were telepathically connected. Dan Cheng Hao was also looking in her direction.
When he looked to the side, he saw Fang Yun sitting next to him and talking to him. Qiao Lu De puffed his cheeks and turned his head away. Although she turned her head, she still felt Dan Cheng Hao's gaze. She stood up and walked to a dark corner to be invisible.
"I really didn't expect you to get close to CEO Ning Yuan. How amazing!" Chu Xiao stood beside her and said sarcastically.
Qiao Lu De looked at him and sneered. He was really a perfect match with Fang Yun. She was using him to seduce him.
"You're not bad either. You found a rich and beautiful woman. From now on, you are on the path of a gigolo. Tell me about it, I haven't congratulated you yet." Qiao Lu De did not give him any face.
Chu Xiao's face immediately showed that he had suffered a great humiliation. He opened his mouth and said, "Who are you talking about? I have never spent Fang Yun's money. We are still using AA system."
Qiao Lu De blocked with his hand. "Enough, don't explain it to me. I don't have the time to listen. You've been cheating for so long, yet your new girlfriend hasn't even spent any money on you. You still have the nerve to say that? Don't you think it's ugly?"
"You!" Being mocked, Chu Xiao was not too happy either, "You have a good road ahead of you. I didn't come here with any bad intentions. Yes, I admit that it was my fault for not being nice to you the previous two times. I want to tell you that you should keep a respectful distance from that person called Dan Cheng Hao. His identity is still there and is not someone that you and I can touch."
"What? Is he still a piece of porcelain that couldn't be broken with a single touch?" Qiao Lu De glanced at him sideways, "Chu Xiao, you don't have to pretend to be a good person in front of me. What I do has nothing to do with you. You don't have to care who I'm dating, nor do you need to kindly remind me. Mind your own business. Don't let Fang Yun get tired of playing with you one day and kick you away. Just don't have nowhere to cry."
Chu Xiao exhaled, "Damn it, why didn't I realize that your mouth was so sharp before? Fine, consider it as me saying too much. I treat it as my ill intentions."
Qiao Lu De glanced over at the stage and said to Chu Xiao, "Hey, let me kindly remind you. Your baby Fang Yun doesn't seem to be very happy."
Chu Xiao followed her gaze, and indeed, Fang Yun was looking at the two of them with resentment. He didn't say anything else and left first.
Dan Cheng Hao, who was sitting there, also looked over and raised his eyebrows at Qiao Lu De. Qiao Lu felt uncomfortable when he thought of the way he and Fang Yun were sitting together and talking and laughing. He turned around with a straight face.
Dan Cheng Hao didn't get a response. He frowned, wondering what kind of mood this young lady was playing. Why did she suddenly become unhappy? Just now, when she was chatting with her ex-boyfriend, she was smiling. Why did she become so cold when she saw him?
