Chapter 670

My buddy's eyes grew wider and wider, and he stared at Shu Chen in disbelief, "What's going on with you? Why are you suddenly so concerned and curious about Qiao Muting?"

"You wouldn't be looking to find yourself some sugar daddy, would you?!"

Having been in this circle for a long time, it is quite normal for one's mindset to gradually become crooked.

After all, if you don't make it big for a long time and watch those who are far inferior to you become wildly popular, your originally firm mindset will gradually become unbalanced.

It's just that it is very surprising that the person who would have such thoughts is Shu Chen.

Shu Chen's mouth twitched, "What are you thinking? If I wanted to go down that path, I would have done it long ago. Would I have needed to wait until now? I was just asking, that's all."

He was just afraid of being targeted.

Some people from wealthy families these days play too wildly.

Open spears are easy to dodge, but hidden arrows are hard to guard against.

Now that his career is finally showing signs of improvement, he absolutely must not let any more trouble arise.

My buddy raised an eyebrow and immediately asked in a low, gossipy voice, "You wouldn't bring up Qiao Muting for no reason. Tell me, did you see something?"

Qiao Muting's gossip is not something just anyone can know.

Moreover, if something really did happen, given the speed of Qiao Group's public relations, they would end the matter very quickly and would never let the news spread.

So it wouldn't reach their ears.

Shu Chen shrugged, "I was just suddenly curious; I heard someone mention Qiao Muting while taking the elevator earlier."

"Actually, I won't hide it from you, I've also heard that Qiao Muting doesn't get close to women, and I've guessed whether he likes men; even the special assistants he keeps by his side are all men," my buddy said in a low voice.

The muscles in Shu Chen's face tightened a bit more, and he felt he couldn't sit there any longer, "I'm going to the restroom."

——

One hour later.

Shu Xia and Qiao Muting finished their dinner.

When they left, Qiao Muting took the shopping bag from Shu Xia's hand.

"What's inside?" Qiao Muting asked, appearing to ask casually.

Shu Xia had almost forgotten that she had also bought two sets of loungewear, "Loungewear."

"Loungewear?"

"Yeah, one set for each of us, but if you don't like it, you don't have to wear it. I thought the style was quite nice when I bought it, so I bought two sets," Shu Xia explained immediately afterward.

Qiao Muting's thin lips curled slightly, and it was clear he was in an even better mood, "Since you bought it for me, I will wear it."

So decisive?

Shu Xia raised an eyebrow, "Really?"

She could already imagine him shaking his head in refusal.

Looking at the two somewhat childish sets of loungewear with a face full of disdain, then saying directly that he wouldn't wear them, absolutely not.

Qiao Muting nodded with a very calm expression, "Yes."

Shu Xia was suddenly looking forward to going home.

When walking out of the private room, Shu Xia went to the restroom first.

Qiao Muting waited outside the restroom.

Because his temperament was so outstanding, it was hard for people not to notice him.

Anyone who came to use the restroom could see Qiao Muting.

Shu Chen happened to be walking out of the restroom just then, and the moment he saw Qiao Muting, his face changed in fright.

And Qiao Muting also saw Shu Chen at the first moment.

It is not rare to meet twice in the same restaurant.

It's just...

Is he that scary?

Why did he look so terrified the moment he saw him?

"Quite a coincidence, we meet again," Qiao Muting was in a good mood today, and even his tone when speaking was much better than usual.

But Shu Chen's eyes widened, even more terrified than before, and he nodded very dryly, "Coincidence."

To run into him just by going to the restroom?
