Chapter 115: Look at that girl, she looks like she

Lu Qiao didn't move. Facing those deep eyes, she found that today's Qin Hengzhi was even more refined than yesterday.

His shirt was spotlessly white, his military uniform crisp and stiff.

Especially those eyes, like obsidian tempered with starlight, always carrying a hint of casual bewitchment when looking at her.

Lu Qiao's eyes were also startlingly bright, and her hands were itching to try something.

She really wanted to reach out and touch this handsome face so close at hand.

Of course, in public, one still had to maintain politeness.

She smiled shyly: "Sit properly. Look at that girl, she looks like she's about to cry."

Lu Min was truly regretful.

She had simply listened to her stepmother's threats and sweet talk and didn't go to meet Qin Hengzhi.

She had met him once; she wouldn't dare say it was love at first sight now.

But if she had really gone that day, what could the Cao family have done?

Could the Cao family possibly be more powerful than the Qin family?

If she had become a member of the Qin family, would that girl from the Cao family still dare to bully her?

She wouldn't dare; she wouldn't dare provoke her at all.

It wasn't as terrifying as her stepmother said. Now, it's good—thanks to this opportunity, her stepmother's younger brother has been promoted.

She missed out on Qin Hengzhi; she would never meet anyone better than him in this lifetime.

Lu Min took a deep breath with an ugly expression, then slowly exhaled.

She looked toward the direction of the front-row rostrum, clenched her hands, and walked toward Qin Hengzhi and the girl he had brought.

No need to guess, that girl must be Qin Hengzhi's partner.

She was very beautiful.

Embedded in her porcelain-white face were a pair of peach-blossom eyes that seemed to smile, appearing affectionate and charming, yet they were clear and bright.

At this moment, a smile hung on the corners of her lips, and with her head-tilting movement, her ponytail swayed, as if it were about to sway into someone's heart in the next second.

Lu Min clenched her hands nervously.

Qin Hengzhi, however, put away the gentle expression he had when facing Qiao, looking silently at Lu Min as she walked over.

Lu Min was a staff member; she was originally serving near the rostrum, but as she walked over, she naturally attracted the gazes of many people.

After all, the lights were on, and the leaders hadn't arrived yet; those who were familiar with each other were either talking or looking around.

Qin Hengzhi and Lu Qiao's seats were quite good.

A position not far behind the rostrum, and also in the middle.

This was the best position besides the rostrum.

Actually, Qin Hengzhi was supposed to sit on the rostrum, but he had refused such a ticket.

The place he chose was actually the best viewing angle.

And Lu Min bent her waist slightly in front of Qin Hengzhi and Lu Qiao; she didn't want to attract attention either.

But many people still looked at them.

Those in front could see who it was by turning their heads, but those behind could only see the backs of that young man and woman.

Looking at their backs, one naturally couldn't recognize who they were, but that applied to strangers.

Liang Aishu and Shen Yun had also come to watch the performance.

They were also attracted, and naturally recognized at a glance that the two were Qin Hengzhi and Lu Qiao.

Liang Aishu's expression changed instantly.

He didn't know that Qin Hengzhi and Lu Qiao were dating, but seeing the two sitting side by side, did he even need to think? These two certainly had an unusual relationship.

Shen Yun, however, stared at Lu Qiao's back in disbelief.

Lu Qiao, isn't that Lu Qiao? How is she with Representative Qin?

Shen Yun was so shocked she even stood up. Only after realizing the strange gazes around her did she sit down with a complex expression.

She said in a voice loud enough for those around her to hear: "Brother Aishu, look in front, isn't that Lu Qiao? Why did the staff member go to find her? Did she sit in the wrong seat? Should I go help her?"

Liang Aishu held Shen Yun down. She was usually quite smart; why did she become so agitated and foolish when seeing Lu Qiao?

Didn't she see that Lu Qiao was sitting with Qin Hengzhi?

If someone said these two didn't have something going on, he wouldn't believe it.

Today, Lu Qiao had her hair in a ponytail and was wearing a dress. From his angle, he could only see Lu Qiao's slender back. For some reason, Liang Aishu felt a bit dazed.

It seemed as if he had never known Lu Qiao at all.

He said in a strained voice: "We are strangers to her now; even if we bump into each other, we don't speak. Even if she sat in the wrong seat, she doesn't need our help."

Shen Yun's heart was in turmoil. It was truly too unlucky. She had originally come happily with Brother Aishu to watch the ballet, and originally had the superiority and pride of holding internal tickets, but at this moment, it had all been destroyed by Lu Qiao.

That bitch, she didn't want to see her; why did she still have to appear in her line of sight?

She waited for the staff member to chase her away.

She waited for Lu Qiao to make a fool of herself in front of Qin Hengzhi, and even hoped that Lu Qiao didn't have a ticket at all and had snuck in with thick skin.

She hoped Lu Qiao would make a fool of herself in public.

Shen Yun stared at the direction of Lu Qiao in front without blinking.

And at this moment, Lu Qiao didn't need to speak at all; she just sat leisurely in her seat, watching Lu Min talk to Qin Hengzhi nervously.

Lu Min was indeed very nervous; perhaps it was because Qin Hengzhi was too serious.

She said: "I came... I came to tell you that Cao Lanzhu is in the inspection team that arrived this time. After she arrived, she came to ask me about your situation. I said I didn't know, and she stopped paying attention to me."

Qin Hengzhi didn't even move an eyebrow, nodding calmly at Lu Min to indicate he understood.

That kind of detachment was the same as when they first met in his uncle's office.

Perhaps it was because of this coldness and detachment that she didn't have the firm determination to meet him?

Perhaps she knew back then that even if they met, there would be no result.

However, at the moment she walked over, she saw the gentle expression Qin Hengzhi had when facing the girl beside him.

Lu Min's heart was filled with mixed feelings. Biting her lip, she didn't look at the expression of the girl beside him and left in a hurry.

Shen Yun clenched her hands in disappointment.

She also saw Representative Qin turn his head to look at Lu Qiao, seemingly saying something in a low voice.

So, they were together!

What to do? She was truly so jealous. Lu Qiao, someone who had been rejected and wanted by no one, how could she be dating someone like Representative Qin?

Is the Qin family so unpicky that they want a woman who has been rejected?

Shen Yun turned her head in anger, no longer looking at Lu Qiao.

Lu Min walked from the theater to the side corridor and saw Bai Jinxin standing by the corridor door waiting for her.

Lu Min walked forward a few steps and hurriedly explained: "Aunt Bai, I... I just went to tell Representative Qin that Cao Lanzhu was asking about his information. I only said I didn't know."

Bai Jinxin had just seen her nephew enter the theater with a beautiful girl.

That girl should be the one introduced by Factory Director Hao.

She trusted Factory Director Hao's character.

But actually, whether she trusted him or not wasn't important; what was important was that her nephew had a partner.

It's estimated that his sister far away in Beidu didn't even know.

Bai Jinxin glanced over there and said to Lu Min with a smile: "You are a good child, go get busy."

Lu Min breathed a sigh of relief.

It was good that Aunt Bai didn't blame her.

She walked to the backstage entrance and didn't see Aunt Bai go toward Qin Hengzhi.

Clearly, she wanted to pretend she hadn't seen them. ===== CHAPTER 116 =====
