"A prank?"

I was a little taken aback by his nervous expression. I nodded and said honestly, "I've played it several times, but no one said anything when I picked it up."

"Who told you to pay?" Congealing my troubled face, Lou Shaotang laughed.

"What did you call me?"

Unable to understand him, I said hesitantly, "Husband."

He lightly pinched the tip of my nose and said with a gentle smile, "So, as for the matter of my wife, my husband is obligated."

"Hubby, where's Di Jin?" I bit my lips and didn't continue, but Lou Shaotang knew what I wanted to say and asked, "How much did he invest?"

"5 million." I frown. This is not a small amount.

Lou Shaotang did not even blink, "I will return it to him." He said firmly and slightly domineeringly, "You are not allowed to have any further contact with him. And that bet, forget it. "

I can't guarantee that he will agree to withdraw his shares. But since he reminded me of the bet today, I'm sure that he definitely won't treat this matter as a joke.

But so what?

I will definitely win this bet!

With this thought, the burden in his heart was relieved. He smiled and said, "I understand."

Hearing Lou Shaotang's words, I still did not enter the company the next day and did not wake up until noon. After waking up, I saw that Lou Shaotang had sent me a message on his phone, reminding me not to forget to eat breakfast. I smiled, warm inside.

Because I had an appointment with Shu Qiao for lunch, after washing up, I simply put on some makeup and went to meet him.

Hearing that I wanted to introduce her to a boyfriend, Shu Qiao spat out a mouthful of coffee, "Damn! You actually want me to go on a blind date? " She wiped her mouth with a tissue, her face looked like she had been humiliated, "Xiao Ying, are you kidding me?" He gestured at his own face and body. "Do you think a woman with both wisdom and beauty needs a blind date?"

I rolled my eyes and thought for a while, "Qin Lang is really not bad, his looks are really handsome and his character is good, I can just treat his as a friend."

Shu Qiao shook her head like a rattle drum, "Forget it, that's too silly."

"What's wrong with that?" "You all like to travel, you all study in the United States, you have a lot of common language, you don't look at each other the way other people do on a blind date."

Seeing that she was still not interested, I continued to help advertise for Qin Lang. "His family's relationship is simple, he only has one son. With such good conditions, where are you going to find it? "

Maybe because he saw that I had a high opinion of Qin Lang, adding that his family situation is indeed advantageous, Shu Qiao became a little relaxed, "You said that he is very handsome? "How handsome is he?"

As a member of the Appearance Association, what she cared about the most was men's looks.

"Worse than Lou Shaotang."

"" Shu Qiao looked at me speechlessly. "Xiao Ying, you're done! It's not like you're trying to take advantage of your husband. I knew Lou Shaotang was handsome a long time ago.

I burst out laughing. I really didn't mean it, if anyone were to ask me what a man looked like, I would automatically compare them with Lou Shaotang, and without exception, all of them would be worse than him.

It's not what I love, it's the truth. If he did not come from a rich and powerful family, Lou Shaotang could have easily become a big shot in the performing arts industry with this pair of leather shoes and a myriad of fans.

I stopped laughing and continued to persuade her, "I'm serious, Qiao Qiao, you might as well see it, what if you fall for it?"

This topic ended happily. Shu Qiao drank a mouthful of coffee, then changed the topic: "Oh yeah, you don't have children, did Lou Shaotang not rush you?"

I pretended to look at her. "Correction? It's not that I don't want to give birth, it's that the child doesn't want to come."

"Ahem, it's all the same." Shu Qiao didn't mind and asked again: "Does Lou Shaotang like children? If he doesn't like it, it doesn't matter if he is born later. "

"Yes, he does." Speaking of which, I couldn't help but feel a little down.

Lou Shaotang really likes children, that's for sure. Every time he met the children outside, his eyes were fixed on them, and a kind smile appeared on his face. He also told me that our children would be as cute as they were in the future, and so on.

Passing by the baby shop, he would definitely go in to take a look. He picked up his clothes and shoes to feel them, and his eyes were filled with yearning and anticipation. I knew in my heart that he was really looking forward to having a baby soon, but was afraid of putting pressure on me so he didn't say it was urgent.

"Have you checked?"

I nodded and sighed. "I hope there won't be any problems."

"It definitely won't be a problem. Don't let your imagination run wild." Seeing my downcast face, Shu Qiao hurriedly consoled me and looked at his watch, "Didn't you say you were going to buy clothes? "Let's go."

"Yes." I raised my hand and asked the waiter to pay the bill.

After exiting the restaurant, we took the elevator to the top floor. That was a luxury branding area, and one had to have a VIP card in order to enter.

Because we did not have a clear goal, we strolled around casually. When we passed a clothing store, I was captivated by the display of a set of boldly designed, sensitive, and silk pajamas on the mannequin in in the window. Shu Qiao found it beautiful as well and said, "This set is not bad, you have to wear it to ensure that your Lou Shaotang will bleed from his nose and turn into a wolf 7 times a night."

"If I don't wear this set, he'll be a wolf seven times a night already."

Shu Qiao laughed loudly, "So your Director Lou is actually this powerful! I can't tell. " "Go in and try it."

Pushing the glass door inside, I saw Lou Anqi flipping through a magazine at the entrance of fitting room. Surprised: "An Qi?" Go to her.

Hearing me call her, Lou Anqi suddenly raised his head and looked at me. His originally relaxed and natural face paled, "Little, Sister Xiao Ying."

Seeing how she spoke so slowly with a frightened expression, I couldn't help but laugh. "Why are you so scared?"

Lou Anqi moved her lower lip, laughing in an extremely awkward manner, then looked towards fitting room and asked: "You, why are you here too?"

I tilted my head towards Shu Qiao. "I've asked a friend to go shopping."

Seeing her nod in understanding, I asked her, "You came alone?"

Lou Anqi was startled, before she could even answer me, the door of the fitting room beside me opened.

Subconsciously, I looked over and saw that the person who walked out was struck by a bolt of lightning in the blink of an eye.

Zhong Ruoqing!

I stood where I was in shock. I couldn't believe that Lou Anqi would mix with Zhong Ruoqing. Even more surprising was that Zhong Ruoqing didn't act as arrogant and disdainful as before when she saw me. Instead, she pursed her lips and drooped her eyelids, with a face full of tender shyness;

I squinted at her, confused. Her facial features seemed to be slightly different as well, but it was hard to tell what exactly was the difference. It was just that the overall feeling did not resemble that of the old Zhong Ruoqing.

Could it be that she was slightly reorganized? Even his temperament had changed?

"Xiao, Big Sister Xiao Ying, listen to me explain." Lou Anqi's face flushed red, she anxiously pulled my hand, "Actually it's like that!"

"You don't need to explain." I magnanimously smiled and interrupted him. "It's your freedom to make friends with anyone you want."

At this moment, it is false to say that I am not angry, but reason tells me that I cannot interfere with the freedom of others to make friends. Zhong Ruoqing and I are at odds, so we can't force others to form an alliance with me as well.

Perhaps seeing that I had forgiven her, Lou Anqi bit her lips, guilt written all over her face.

"Qiao Qiao, let's go." I turned and greeted Shu Qiao.

Once they left the shop, Shu Qiao scolded angrily, "Is your aunt crazy? Despite knowing that you and Zhong Ruoqing are enemies, you still keep in touch with her! "

I helplessly pursed my lips, "Forget it." Shu Qiao then said: "But why does Zhong Ruoqing look like a different person?"

"You think so too?" I was surprised. It really wasn't an illusion.

"Yeah, look at her. She's like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered."

Shu Qiao said in a mocking tone, and I also sneered in disdain, "She knows how to act the most."

Suddenly, I remembered that she was using this kind of soft and gentle posture to cuddle up with Lou Shaotang and try to seduce him. I sneered and said to Shu Qiao: "Come, let's go eat ice cream." I must eat something cold to cool down the fire now.

Shu Qiao and I had a sweet tooth and ordered an ice cream hotpot. We ate very high and quickly forgot about our displeasure.

While they chatted as they ate, Shu Qiao inadvertently glanced behind me and immediately laughed involuntarily, "Heh, that woman surnamed Zhong is a Transformed Golden Steel!"

"I wondered why she would suddenly blurt out such a sarcastic remark. My hand stopped scooping up the ice cream." "What do you mean?"

She pointed behind me. "Look for yourself."

I don't understand, turn around.

Zhong Ruoqing was standing in front of the counter and ordering orders with a waiter. Her hair had changed back to the way it was a few days ago when I saw her in the coffee shop.

My heart skipped a beat, and I squinted at her.

At this moment, she also turned her head to look in our direction. When she saw me, she was obviously startled.

No!

I immediately realized that this was the real Zhong Ruoqing, and the Zhong Ruoqing I saw at the underwear store earlier, was not Zhong Ruoqing!

Shock, shock, confusion, disbelief, and a variety of complex emotions have thrown my mind into a state of utter chaos.

"Xiao Ying?"

Shu Qiao's hand waved in front of me, causing me to come back to my senses. I stood up and walked towards the door.

If that was not Zhong Ruoqing, then who was it?

Why was Lou Shaotang together with her, and why was he so nervous?

Yes, the nervousness that flashed across his face was so clear and deep in my mind now.

My head was in a mess, my heart was in a mess, and I was in a lot of pain. For no reason at all.

"Xiao Ying!" My steps were fast and messy as Shu Qiao chased after me and shouted.
