The Queen of Romance: A Summer of Sweet Classics

Chapter 301

Before leaving City A, Poppy borrowed money from Li Youying, but she didn't return it herself.

When Liang Fang brought the money, Lu Ming followed behind him.Later when Chu Xing went out to get in the car, Poppy was about to find Li Youying. Lu Ming stopped her with a look of hesitation: "How much does Miss Poppy need to pay Mr. Li? Give me a specific amount, and I will help you." Just pay it off."

"why?"

Lu Ming looked left and right, obviously unwilling to say more.But Poppy has been influenced by Chu Xing for these years, and the eyes and movements of staring at people have already learned ten percent from Chu Xing.Not long after Lu Ming was stared at by her, he was defeated, and said a little embarrassedly: "I heard that Miss Poppy and Li Youying went out to play tennis for a while the day before yesterday, and then invited him to dinner, right?"

Poppy's mind turned quickly, and she said, "What?"

Lu Ming looked at her and sighed in his heart: "Do you remember what day was the day before yesterday?"

Poppy looked at him expressionlessly, and Lu Ming finally let out the sigh in his heart. Looking around, he took out a flat square box from his pocket, and handed it over: "I bought it in a hurry yesterday, you can settle it for a while. Take this as a birthday present."

Inside was a plaid handkerchief in a low-key, elegant color.Poppy glanced at it, didn't answer it for a while, and asked softly, "Why did Mr. Lu mention me like that?"

"It's always good for me to remind you." Lu Ming passed the handkerchief forward and urged, "Take it."

Poppy stared blankly at the handkerchief, and took it after a while.Lu Ming turned to leave, but was stopped by her: "Mr. Lu."

"what?"

Poppy lowered her eyes, clasped her hands, her shoulders were weak, and she was completely sincere: "I have been remembering what happened at the door of Cui's house that day, and now I sincerely apologize to you. The apology is the same as today's handkerchief." I will come to the door and return the money to you later.”

Lu Ming opened his mouth, and instinctively wanted to say, don't do this, I can't bear 1 people if you come to my door.She smiled perfunctorily and waved her hands again and again: "It's okay, I almost forgot if you didn't tell me. You don't have to take it to heart."

Poppy said quietly, "That's impossible. It's indeed my fault."

Every time Lu Ming dealt with Poppy, he always felt that she had gained the true biography of Chu Xing over the years.Every sentence was laid out without emotion, making people wonder whether she was really coaxed to be happy, or whether she was hiding a knife in her calm smile.Lu Ming smiled perfunctorily, just wanted to go out quickly, but Poppy asked him again: "Mr. Lu, when did you come to City A?"

"I didn't eat lunch at noon yesterday, so Young Master Chu said he would come over." Lu Ming thought for a while, sighed again, pointed to Poppy's new mobile phone on the coffee table, and said, "To be honest, you probably don't want to hear it. In fact, why do you need to change to a new mobile phone? The person that Young Master Chu wants to find has not been found so far, don't you know this?"

Poppy seemed to be listening submissively, but she was twirling the handkerchief in her hand, and when he finished speaking, she lowered her eyes and did not answer for a long time.Lu Ming knows that she has always been stubborn in her heart, and if Chu Xing chooses bad dishes, he usually listens to half of them and discards half of them, let alone his persuasion.Seeing her like this, Lu Ming stopped singing the one-man show, turned around and walked out alone.

Ten minutes later, Poppy got into the car.Chu Xing was approving documents, and casually said to her: "Too slow."

Poppy hesitated for a moment, bit her lip again, and finally held the handkerchief gift box in front of Chu Xing with both hands.

The pen that Chu Xing signed slowly stopped, turned his face slightly, and heard Poppy speak, with a soft tone and a docile attitude: "The day before yesterday was your birthday. This is a birthday present for you."

Chu Xing looked at the gift box, and turned his eyes around Poppy's face again. After a while, he asked flatly, "Why didn't you give it to me the day before yesterday?"

"..."

Poppy kept silent, and Chu Xing didn't expect her to answer.After holding Poppy for about 2 minutes, he slowly took the gift box and opened it in his palm.The pattern on the handkerchief is clear and flat, with a delicate brand name embroidered on one corner.Chu Xing held the handkerchief in his hand and stroked it, turned his head, his eyes curled into a half-smile: "You want to send me away with just a handkerchief, so shabby and stingy?"

Poppy turned cold all of a sudden, and said expressionlessly, "I have no money."

"No money? What about the 600 million that Cao Yangdong gave you?"

Chu Xing spoke lightly, but Poppy's whole body was shocked, and she suddenly raised her head to look at him.Chu Xing crossed his legs, saw her face turn white in an instant, smiled twice, stretched out his hand and took her into his arms: "Dare you try to hide it from me in the future? Huh?"

Although Poppy was in doubt, her mind was still clear.Realizing that he was in a good mood at the moment, and he didn't intend to pursue her matter, he relaxed a little, thought about it, and said back deliberately: "So what? I don't have anything to do now. I have nothing to do all the time, so I have to find some crooked ways to earn some money so that I can retire later. Is this wrong?"

Chu Xing touched the top of her hair with one hand, and patted it lightly: "What do you want to do? Are you taking this opportunity to complain about my taking power before?"

"I didn't say that. You just know it in your heart."

Chu Xing patted her again and scolded her with a smile: "It's not big or small. Do you want to rebel?"

Chu Xing has a pile of documents to deal with, but Poppy is doing nothing in the car.Chu Xing held her with one arm, and although the position was uncomfortable, Poppy gradually fell asleep.In the dream, she vaguely felt a chill on her neck, Poppy half opened her eyes, and saw a little green flashing past her eyes.

When she lowered her head slightly, she found that there was an extra Jade Buddha pendant around her neck.There is a touch of green in the transparency, with a fresh and beautiful water-color luster.Poppy stretched out her hand and pinched it, and then heard Chu Xing asking beside her, "Do you like it?"

When Poppy first came to Chu's house, she also felt a slight chill on her left wrist during a hazy nap.However, at that time she was sleepy when she was young, and she was only cold for a while, her eyelids did not move, she just turned over and continued to sleep.It took a long time to wake up in a daze, and when he opened his eyes, he found that there was an extra jade bracelet on his hand.

Chu Xing has been sitting on the side of the beauty's couch where she was resting, and I don't know how long she has been waiting.Smiling, she raised her hand in the air, then shook it lightly, and asked her in the same way: "Do you like it?"

At that time, Poppy didn't know what lying was, liking was pure liking, and nodding was serious nodding.I couldn't put it down and watched it for a long time, then looked at him with some confusion, and asked: "If you wear it on your hand, what should you do if it breaks?"

Chu Xing didn't take it seriously: "How could it be broken so easily."

When Chu Xing said that, it was really not broken.That jade bracelet was worn well by Poppy for eight years, almost becoming her symbol.It wasn't until Poppy's birthday the year before last that she forcibly pulled it off by herself, without any hesitation, she threw it to the edge of the cabinet.

The jade bracelet immediately fell apart, and the fragments were everywhere, it was impossible to find all of them.When Chu Xing came back from outside the next morning, he immediately realized that something was wrong with her: "Where did the bracelet go?"

Poppy replied: "Yesterday I almost slipped and accidentally broke it."

After Chu Xing listened, he took a careful look at her.Poppy didn't know how many problems he saw in it. Soon the conversation between the two was interrupted by Lu Ming who hurried over. Chu Xing turned and walked to the study, and only had time to say to her: "If it is broken, it will be broken. Just buy a new one."

The tentacles of the jade pendant were delicate and moist, Poppy touched it for a moment, her eyelashes drooped slightly, and said, "I like it."

Chu Xing seemed dissatisfied with her answer, but he was not angry.A hand came around from behind, touched Poppy's chin, pinched and shook it, and said, "I like it? Is this the expression that I like you?"

Poppy stuffed the Jade Buddha into her clothes, and said casually, "Someone told me to buy a new one a long time ago, I just didn't expect the deadline to be so long."

Chu Xing couldn't help but patted her on the back: "Can you remember the enmity from two years ago?"

The car drove into Chu's house slowly, and Li Zhi was already waiting outside.When Chu Xingcao got off the car, he immediately came up to meet him: "Master Chu, Miss Jiang Mian has been waiting for you in the living room for a long time."

Chu Xing nodded slightly, and walked towards the living room without stopping.When Poppy heard the word "Jiang", she turned her head around, and when she looked up again, she saw Li Zhi standing a few meters away, wearing a light-colored cheongsam with fine embroidery, her hair was rolled up, her high-heeled shoes were also light white, and her whole body There is no ornament on the top and bottom, except for the three emeralds on the neck necklace, which are bright and dazzling.

As soon as Chu Xing left, Li Zhi and the two girls behind him immediately started discussing Li Zhi's outfit today.The sound was so loud that the poppies here could hear it deliberately.Poppy turned around and walked in the opposite direction, but when the breeze blew, she could still hear it very clearly: "Is this the string of emerald necklaces that Young Master gave to Sister Li Zhi at the birthday party the day before yesterday? Pretty."

"Of course such a precious gem is beautiful no matter how you look at it. However, not everyone can wear it tastefully. That is, sister Li Zhi, wearing a light flower cheongsam and matching it with an emerald necklace, will have such a unique and attractive look." Temperament. Unlike some people, everything is virtuous in what they wear..."

"And at the same time, it also shows that the young master has a good vision. It seems that the young master went to the store to choose this cheongsam for Sister Lizhi. I remember correctly, right?"

……

Poppy waited far away, and the ear was finally quiet.She stood in the gazebo in the garden for a while, closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths, then thought about it, then turned to the right and walked onto a secluded path.

At the end of the winding path was a clump of weeds. Poppy kicked aside a bunch of dry branches, revealing a wall hole more than half a meter high.

Poppy squatted down and drilled in, pushed aside the rose bushes in front of her, and walked a certain distance to Chu Xing's living room.

The living room of the Chu family is in the architectural style of Ming and Qing Dynasties, with the main entrance in front and windows on both sides.Poppy walked lightly to a window and held her breath to look inside. The woman named Jiang Mian sitting opposite Chu Xing was as she expected. She was seen at the shooting range that day. Miss Jiang, who was dressed in a royal blue dress, did not say a word from the beginning to the end.

The two were not talking, and Chu Xing was holding a thin document, which he was slowly flipping through page by page.The distance was too far, and Poppy couldn't read the writing on it clearly.He only observed that Chu Xing paused when he turned to the last page, then put away the document and threw it on the table.

Jiang Mian put down the teacup in his hand, with a proper posture, and his voice was gentle and soft: "Master Chu finished reading?"

Chu Xing paused for a moment, then slowly said: "Miss Jiang, you mean that you want Poppy to recognize her ancestors?"

Jiang Mian smiled slightly: "Strictly speaking, this should be my father's last wish."
