Chapter 85: This kind of gentle and handsome man is a rotten cucumber

~7 min read 1,367 words

Halfway through the meal, Jiang Lai received a voice call from Luo Jiaai and a message at the same time.

【Your husband suddenly came over!】

Jiang Lai immediately put down the chopsticks in her hand, said sorry to Ke Zhongyu, and got up to answer the phone by the window.

"Hello? What should I do? Your husband suddenly came over. The front desk called me Mrs. Shen, and I almost bumped into him." The voice on the phone was very small and cautious, "I hid in the bathroom immediately, and he is waiting outside the bathroom! What should I do? Didn't he send you a message?"

Jiang Lai flipped to Shen Xun's phone box. Shen Xun was indeed asking her if she had a stomachache?

"Did the front desk say what he went there for?"

"Said there was some surprise, I saw it seemed to be a bouquet of flowers, he wants to pick you up after class for lunch."

This was him not being able to find her and having to block people at the institution.

Jiang Lai said: "Don't make a sound, I'll stall him and be there right away."

After hanging up the phone, she immediately replied to Shen Xun's message.

【My stomach really hurts, it should be that my period is coming.】

【Why did you suddenly come to pick me up?】

【The front desk said you prepared some surprise, I just glanced at it, is it a bouquet of flowers?】

Shen Xun: 【Jiang Lai, I really want to apologize to you, don't ignore my messages.】

Actually, except for the message bombing that night, Shen Xun hadn't sent many messages later; he was too busy.

The bidding day was getting closer, and all companies that received the bidding invitation letter were rushing.

Don't look at Ke Zhongyu coming to help calmly this morning; last night, in the 【Ke's family is releasing (4) again】 group, everyone was saying that President Ke was pulling them to work overtime together. If it weren't for the overtime pay and reimbursed midnight snacks, they would have cried.

Secretary Cen and the others didn't say goodnight until one o'clock in the morning.

Jiang Lai looked at the man who was still eating lunch leisurely and walked over.

"President Ke, sorry, I have some urgent business to go out, I'll apologize to you next time."

After saying that, she turned to leave.

"Wait." Ke Zhongyu called her, wiped his mouth with a tissue, and asked with some anger, "What's so urgent that you can't even eat a meal properly."

"There's no reason for the host to leave the guest and run away without explaining clearly before sitting down to eat."

Jiang Lai also knew this principle.

Ke Zhongyu saw her embarrassment and anxiety: "Make it short."

"Shen Xun signed me up for a parenting class, I found someone else to take it for me, he doesn't know, and now he's looking for me, and the person taking the class for me is hiding in the bathroom." Jiang Lai made it short, "I have to rush over immediately."

Ke Zhongyu's deep eyes were still staring at her. Jiang Lai noticed the man was a bit unhappy.

Inviting someone to dinner and running away halfway, no one would be happy. Jiang Lai opened her lips again: "I must go, I can't let Shen Xun know I found someone to replace me in class."

"Still caring about his impression of you." The man's voice was a bit deep, and his gaze sank along with it.

"No." Jiang Lai shook her head, "Before the divorce certificate is down, I can't anger Shen Xun. Continuing to drag on our marriage and going to litigation is of no benefit to me."

The income brought by this project of hers would only get higher and higher. By then, she would have to give half to Shen Xun, letting Shen Xun use her money to continue supporting the Shen family and Lin Shutong?

Too scary.

"Sorry, President Ke." Jiang Lai bowed slightly.

Ke Zhongyu stood up and picked up his jacket: "I'll send you."

"President Ke." Jiang Lai looked at him, "I can't anger Shen Xun anymore, he is hostile to you."

Ke Zhongyu laughed in anger and sat back down.

"Thank you, President Ke."

Jiang Lai sent a message to Shen Xun to stall for time while rushing over.

【My period really came, I didn't bring anything, and my pants are dirty.】

【Could I trouble you to go to a nearby supermarket and buy this brand of sanitary pads.】

【/Picture】

Shen Xun didn't reply immediately. She didn't know if Shen Xun believed it, and she didn't know if Shen Xun would go buy things.

One minute later.

Shen Xun replied to her: 【I'll ask the front desk.】

Jiang Lai's heart jumped to her throat.

Forgot, Shen Xun was a warm man praised by everyone, and he was also very good at dealing with people.

Asking a woman if she had sanitary pads was something he could do calmly and composedly.

Jiang Lai continued typing.

【I'm more used to using this brand, if possible, I still want to use this one.】

She sent the picture again.

Shen Xun: 【You rarely make requests of me.】

Jiang Lai wasn't sure what he meant by this sentence.

A little nervous in her heart.

Shen Xun: 【I'm actually quite happy that you're willing to tell me such private things.】

Jiang Lai breathed half a sigh of relief and told the driver to drive faster.

Jiang Lai: 【Did you ask?】

Shen Xun: 【It's not this brand, there's a supermarket nearby, I'll go buy it for you.】

Jiang Lai: 【Thank you.】

After getting out of the car, Jiang Lai specially put on a mask and didn't meet Shen Xun, going straight to the women's bathroom.

Raised her hand and knocked on the bathroom door where Luo Jiaai was.

"It's me."

Luo Jiaai recognized her voice, opened the door from the inside, and her tense nerves finally relaxed at this moment.

"You're here, can I go now?"

"Change clothes." Jiang Lai didn't guarantee whether Shen Xun had caught a glimpse of Luo Jiaai.

"Okay." Luo Jiaai started to take off her clothes, and while exchanging, she asked, "Why don't you let your husband know? He raided, making me terrified."

"I don't want to take the parenting class."

"Then why don't you just tell him, is he forcing you?"

"Mm." Jiang Lai put on her hat, and seeing Luo Jiaai was really curious, she added, "He cheated, I don't want to have children for him."

Luo Jiaai's eyes widened: "Dead scumbag!"

The two finished exchanging clothes.

Luo Jiaai specially tied up her hair, revealing her whole face, so it wouldn't look like her.

"Then what about the afternoon class? If you go to eat with him now, you might not be able to make it, right?"

"I won't stay with him for too long, just wait for my message." Jiang Lai smiled faintly at her, "You go find a place to eat lunch first."

"Okay, I'm leaving." Luo Jiaai was about to walk out of the bathroom, but Jiang Lai called her again.

"What's wrong?"

"Don't you wash your hands after going to the bathroom?" Jiang Lai signaled her to go to the sink to wash her hands.

Luo Jiaai suddenly realized.

She came to the sink, turned on the water, washed her hands seriously, took out a paper towel, and walked out while wiping her hands.

A man in a white shirt and black vest walked toward her, tall and handsome, with a faint smile in his eyes, plus a bouquet of roses in his arms, simply handsome enough to make one's heart beat.

However, this kind of gentle and handsome man was a rotten cucumber.

The arc of Luo Jiaai's mouth instantly drooped.

When passing by, she specially flicked the remaining water droplets on her hands, although she didn't flick them on him, it still made her feel a little bit relieved.

Cheating dead scumbag!

"This lady..." Shen Xun suddenly stopped and called her.

Luo Jiaai's back stiffened.

Jiang Lai, who heard the sound in the bathroom, instantly held her breath. ===== CHAPTER 86 =====
