Chapter 369

Zong Jize heard the phone ringing in the bathroom, and it was the message ringtone he specially set for Lu Dingning.

So, as soon as he got out of the bathroom, he couldn't wait to pick up his phone, wanting to see what Lu Dingning had sent him.

Dylan Ning: [Xi Yuan said that the stinky tofu on Xicheng Road is delicious. How about going to eat together after get off work? 】

Zong Jize, who saw the information, frowned.

Didn't the bean juice intimidate her last time?

Do you want to hear from her assistant who always tries to cheat her again?

When Zong Jize was thinking about editing the information and trying to persuade Lu Dingning not to eat stinky tofu and to change it to tofu flower, Geng Qing knocked on the door.

After Zong Jize let him in, he looked up and saw that besides several folders, this guy was also holding a cup of coffee.

There is no way, just now the secretary fell down in the tea room, her ankle was swollen, and she cried in pain. The task of delivering coffee fell on Geng Qing.

"I don't want coffee!"

Zong Jize stared at the smoking cup of coffee in Geng Qing's hand, and said with some displeasure.

That's right, Zong Jize doesn't like people who make their own decisions.

In his team, those who always do something without authorization are basically fired.

Having worked with Zong Jize for so many years, Geng Qing is of course aware of this man's faults.

So after putting down the document, Geng Qing quickly explained: "Miss Tang just said that she wants to drink coffee!"

"Miss Tang? Which Miss Tang?" Zong Jize took the phone again and advised Lu Dingning not to eat those things that were available.

"Miss Tang Qiwen!"

"Didn't she leave?" Hearing Tang Qiwen's name, Zong Jize didn't take his eyes off the phone screen, but his brows were obviously frowned.

"Later, I turned back and said that I had something to talk to you in private!"

It's just that when he explained this, Geng Qing looked around Zong Jize's office, feeling a little depressed: "He said he asked me to bring in a cup of coffee. I brought the coffee here, but no one is here anymore!"

"Don't worry about her, go out first!" Anyway, in this office, he locked up all the important documents. So Zong Jize is confident that Tang Qiwen must not have gotten any commercial secrets from him.

"yes!"

After Geng Qing left the office, Zong Jize continued to chat with Lu Dingning.

But after persuasion for a long time, Lu Dingning still insisted on trying the legendary stinky tofu in the afternoon.

This result made Zong Jize one head and two big.

It was because Zong Jize really didn't like things that exuded weird smells.

But in the end, he compromised and agreed to accompany Lu Dingning to eat stinky tofu.

In the evening, on Xicheng Road, a noisy street full of snacks, the appearance of Zong Jize and Lu Dingning was simply a sight to be seen.

And such two people appeared in front of the most crowded stinky tofu shop in the middle of Xicheng Road.

The boss who sells stinky tofu is almost too busy to take a break.

In such an atmosphere, many people are still queuing.

Among the noisy crowd, the deep creases on Zong Jize's brows never disappeared.

"Are you sure the food in this place is edible? Don't you worry about it being the same as last time's bean juice?" Until this moment, Zong Jize still didn't give up his desire to persuade Lu Dingning not to eat this stinky thing.

"No. After that guy Xiyuan was beaten up by me, he didn't dare to bully me anymore!" Lu Dingning raised his lips confidently: "Besides, I also ate stinky tofu when I was young. It just smells stinky, but it tastes delicious. It's delicious!"

Even in a crowded shop, Lu Dingning's smile can still hit people's visual nerves.

So much so that the proprietress was also amazed by Lu Dingning, and directly gave her the freshly baked stinky tofu.

"Young man, I'll give it to you first!"

But there are still many people around them waiting for the stinky tofu. Of course, some people are dissatisfied with the arrangement of the proprietress.

"Miss Boss, I came first. Why did you give it to her first?" Among them was a young man with yellow hair, who directly expressed his dissatisfaction.

It's just that he never expected that what he got was this answer: "If you look as good-looking as her, I will make it for you first!"

"..." The yellow-haired boy suddenly felt that there was no love in this world, and he had to look at his face even to eat stinky tofu...

Lu Dingning, who was afraid that the longer he stood here, the more criticism the proprietress would suffer, quickly took the stinky tofu from the proprietress's hand, paid for it, and dragged Zong Jize away.

"Come on, try the stinky tofu I brought back with my face!" Back in the car, Lu Dingning hurriedly skewered one on a small bamboo stick and handed it over to Zong Jize, like offering a treasure.

But Zong Jize refused to open his mouth, and finally Lu Dingning ate the piece of stinky tofu by himself.

"The taste is really good. It seems that this guy Xiyuan really didn't trick me, and I will try to be as gentle as possible when I beat him in the future!"

Someone's good mood didn't seem to disappear because of Zong Jize's resistance.

"Don't eat too much..." Zong Jize looked at her eating with gusto, and suddenly became very curious about her previous experiences.

With this character, he always uses fighting to solve problems, he is really no different from a boy.

Could it be that she also presented herself as a boy before?

"Ding Ning, can you tell me which country you stayed in before?"

Just when Lu Dingning picked up another piece of stinky tofu, Zong Jize suddenly asked.

These words made Lu Dingning stop chewing just now.

Not only that, even the light in her beautiful phoenix eyes dimmed a lot in an instant.

"No!" It took her a long time to answer.

Her voice, at this moment, has the indifference that rejects people thousands of miles away.

"I won't say it." The rejected Zong Jize's tone was inexplicably tinged with disappointment.

He thought that the relationship between him and Lu Dingning was close enough.

No, it should be said that no one in this world is closer to her than Zong Jize!

With such a relationship, why does Lu Dingning still not trust him?

"I know. But I still don't want to say it!"

She stayed in country F before.

If Zong Jize went there to inquire, relying on his relationship, he would definitely be able to expose her background in no time.

In fact, Lu Dingning didn't really want Zong Jize to know that she was the ruthless and vicious stepson of the Smith family.

On the other hand, Lu Dingning was also worried that once Zong Jize really launched an investigation in country F, those people who had grudges against her before would definitely have doubts. In this way, they only need to do a little investigation around Zong Jize, and her identity and gender of Lu Dingning will be exposed accordingly.

At that time, her life and the future of her mother will be in jeopardy...

Suddenly, her mood fell into a trough without warning.

Even the stinky tofu that I thought was delicious just now is like chewing wax.

After swallowing the piece of stinky tofu in his mouth, Lu Dingning suddenly pressed the car window, and threw the remaining half of the stinky tofu, together with the bamboo stick...
