Back to the prime of life

Chapter 166 Ambiguity
For some reason, the three words "old woman" seemed to particularly hurt Manager Qu.

But she must have had a male companion with her, so in order to maintain some composure, she did not throw a tantrum, but just glanced at the male companion next to her.

Then the man was heard saying to Lu Changge, "How can you be so unmannered when you're out and about? Jiayi, you should choose your friends carefully."

Han Jiayi's brows tightened slightly.

I guess it's a bit awkward to speak in front of my leader.

There was a hint of sadness in Lu Changge's eyes when he looked at her. He was not afraid, but he thought to himself that he should not just vent his anger on himself. He cursed happily and left Shanghai without seeing these two people again.

Han Jiayi will have to face everything on her own from now on.

Anyway, this sentence is enough to criticize this guy named Qu.

That's what he planned.

However, Han Jiayi, who had been holding back for a while, was the first to 'break down'. Facing Manager Qu's gaze, she said to the man, "How I make friends isn't the company's business, right?"

There was something strange in Manager Qu's eyes, and then he looked at Lu Changge curiously. It seemed that he didn't think Han Jiayi would go to such an extent for him. It seemed that they really had a close relationship.

Han Jiayi saw it and said to Lu Changge, "Let's go."

"Ah."

Afterwards, he passed by Manager Qu. The woman even gave him a deep look with her lips curled up, and she continued, "I won't take care of it, but Mr. Zhang will definitely take care of it."

Lu Changge stopped and turned to ask, "What's your name, Zhang?"

"She didn't tell you?" This really sounded like something a bitch, skilled at stirring up trouble in the office, would say. Not only that, she added an expression, covering her mouth as she said, "No way?"

Lu Changge said, "Don't cover it up. Aren't you disgusted by pretending to be a girl at the age of 30?"

Manager Qu finally couldn't stand it anymore, "What are you talking about? Watch your mouth!"

Lu Changge stared at her intently, with an aura of never retreating.

Han Jiayi heard her being so rude and immediately started to defend her, "Manager Qu, I've wanted to make it clear to you a long time ago. Mr. Zhang doesn't like you, but that's his business, not mine. I've also told him that I don't like him. Besides, it looks like you've found a boyfriend, so I hope you won't misunderstand me about that in the future."

The relationship was a bit confusing, and it took Lu Changge two seconds to figure it out.

He wanted to make a few more comments, but Han Jiayi simply grabbed his hand and dragged him out.

"Let's go, I don't like this kind of thing."

This time she tried harder.

Of course Lu Changge followed her wishes, but when he turned to look inside the bar, he found that Manager Qu was stamping his feet in anger.

So he laughed, "I was wondering why she disliked you and me as soon as she came in. It turns out that you are the one who has bewitched the man she likes. That's quite interesting."

"What's the point?" Han Jiayi sat in the car angrily. "Work is annoying enough, and now I have to deal with something like this."

Lu Changge said, "Pretty girls tend to have trouble starting in puberty. If you're truly unhappy, then come find me. Of course, it's entirely up to you. What I want to say is, you don't have to be afraid of her in the future."

These words are not only comforting, but also real help.

"Thank you. I made you unhappy today."

Lu Changge shook his head. "No. By the way, tell me, what are the names of these two people? I mean the one with the surname Qu, and that Mr. Zhang."

"what?"

"tell me."

"Qu Jing and Zhang Yifei."

Lu Changge secretly memorized these two names.

"It's okay, forget about it. Where do you want to go next?"

"How about taking me back?"

In this way, they drove for about another twenty minutes.

When they got downstairs, Han Jiayi saw Lu Changge unbuckle his seatbelt and get out of the car with her. Her heart skipped a beat and she said, "You, what are you doing?"

Lu Changge acted as if nothing had happened and said, "I'll go up with you."

The girl immediately panicked a little, "I, I'm renting with a woman now."

"It's okay. I'm not going into her room. I've already been into your room."

This guy is being shameless on purpose, but what doesn't he understand?
However, when they were neighbors, they had indeed been to each other's homes before, so there was nothing wrong with that. Han Jiayi couldn't persuade him after all, and she didn't feel comfortable refusing. If she said what he thought now, it would be a bit presumptuous.

Then the two of them entered the staircase door with the word "Unit 2" written on it. There were two elevators inside. There was no one else, so they were the only ones standing there waiting.

The environment and atmosphere are sometimes quite effective. In the past, Han Jiayi didn't think there was anything wrong with Lu Changge, who lived across the street, coming to visit, but now bringing him to her rental house... this is a bit weird.

This strange feeling was like a blast of heat, making her cheeks burning. She concealed it by lifting the hair by her ears, glanced at Lu Changge, and then quickly looked away.

"Is this place close to your company?" Lu Changge asked intermittently as if nothing had happened.

"It's OK. I can ride the electric scooter for about twenty minutes."

"So you came back in my car tonight, what are you going to do tomorrow?"

"Let's take a taxi tomorrow. Sometimes when the weather is bad, I also take a taxi."

"Oh. How much is the rent for a month?"

"1100."

“It’s quite expensive.”

"Well, I've made my own plan. Now that I've just graduated, I'll try working in Shanghai for two years."

While chatting, we arrived at the 12th floor.

Lu Changge asked again, "When you brought me back, should you tell her? What if she's wearing pajamas or just got out of the shower..."

Han Jiayi looked at him, as if she could see through him. Suddenly, Lu Changge felt that President Han's aura had returned.

In fact, she was thinking: This guy obviously knows everything.

"She's been on a business trip these past two days."

After saying this, she opened the door and went in.

Lu Changge finally saw this two-bedroom house. It was actually a normal commercial house for rent, with the living room and kitchen shared.

Han Jiayi still had to be careful. After all, her roommates' private belongings might be found anywhere, and it would not be good for Lu Changge to see them, so she took a quick look around first.

Unfortunately, she was a step too slow, and by the time she saw it, Lu Changge had actually seen it too.

The guy touched his nose and asked, "Where do I sit?"

Han Jiayi was immediately embarrassed and rushed over to pick up the pink object on the sofa.

But she moved too quickly and tripped and nearly fell. Luckily, Lu Changge was beside her and offered her a hand, saying, "You've already seen it. It's too late to worry."

The girl didn't say anything and took the things into the room by herself.

Lu Changge thought about it outside and felt that it should be B.

"Going to work is different from going to school. It's busier at work." Han Jiayi said something explanatory after coming out.

"It's understandable that sometimes there's not enough time to clean up."

Lu Changge stared at her, then laughed, "Okay, don't be embarrassed. You're President Han, I'm not used to you being so shy."

Han Jiayi said: "The president is also a girl, she can't attack as suddenly as you do."

"So that's yours? I thought it belonged to your roommate."

"Lu Changge!" Han Jiayi stomped her feet. She looked quite nice when she was angry.

"Haha, just kidding. You've already trusted me with your drunk self, so don't worry about it. Sit down." He half-lay on the sofa. "Mr. Zhang, you're not a beast, are you? Can you make it in Shanghai alone?"

"I have already rejected him, and he hasn't contacted me again during this period."

Han Jiayi didn't sit down. She opened the wine she brought back from the bar and drank it. Jokes aside, she really believed in Lu Changge.

"By the way, you haven't told me why you came to Shanghai."

Lu Changge said, "I'm going to the airport to see someone off. I founded a software development company. We've been working on a product for the past two months, and now that product is going to be released in the US. Today is the day they're going to the US."

It seems easy to say, but the words "company", "product", and "released in the United States" are all quite niche.

Han Jiayi didn't expect that after not seeing Lu Changge for a few months, he would make some noise again.
