Cold wives should also be pampered slowly

Chapter 9 Neighbors (Revised)
The car stopped at the gate of Xiao Qiang's villa.

"arrive!"

Xiao Qiang opened her eyes, looked out of the car window, at the familiar home, her eyes suddenly froze.

"You investigate me?"

After she became an adult, she bought this villa with dividends from her shares in Mo's. Few people knew about it, but Chu Zimo, a man who had never met a few times, would know about it?
Chu Zimo was taken aback, and followed Xiao Qiang's gaze, the villa directly in front of the car...

Well, it actually belonged to Xiao Qiang!
He couldn't help pursing his lips and smiling.

He opened the co-pilot's door, grabbed Xiao Qiang's wrist, and pulled him out of the car.

"Miss, look clearly, this is my home! My house, what a coincidence that we are neighbors!"

Chu Zimo has two properties, one here and one in Wolong Villa.

It's just that it doesn't come here very much.

Neighbor!

Xiao Qiang looked at the key in Chu Zimo's hand, and the corner of her mouth twitched in embarrassment.

what is this?
Evil fate!

Seemingly satisfied with the expression on Xiao Qiang's face, Chu Zimo smiled charmingly, and his voice sounded like a violin.

"To your house or to my house?"

Seeing that Xiao Qiang did not speak, Chu Zimo grasped Xiao Qiang's wrist familiarly, and walked towards a villa in front of the vehicle.

Xiao Qiang came back to her senses, she had followed Chu Zimo to the door, and suddenly broke free from Chu Zimo's hand.

"what are you doing?"

"It's so late, aren't you hungry?"

Xiao Qiang gave Chu Zimo a blank look, and spent a whole day of tossing, exhausting his mind and brain, and was injured, how could he not be hungry.

That's why she was anxious to go home, and then called for takeaway.

Chu Zimo entered the password and pushed open the door of the villa.

"Come on, go in and I'll treat you to dinner!"

Xiao Qiang asked in surprise, "You know how to cook?"

Chu Zimo chuckled and spread his hands.The answer is self-evident.

Xiao Qiang stopped refusing and followed Chu Zimo into the room.

The room is very clean, it can be seen that it is cleaned frequently.On the hanger at the entrance, there was still the black windbreaker that Chu Zimo had when he came last time.

Chu Zimo took a pair of brand new slippers and put them under Xiao Qiang's feet.

"Change it yourself, or should I change it for you?"

Xiao Qiang shrank her feet subconsciously, and said in a deep voice, "I'll do it myself!"

Chu Zimo got up wisely and walked to the kitchen.

Xiao Qiang was left standing alone at the entrance, inexplicably relieved, Xiao Qiang changed her shoes and walked to the living room with brand new slippers.

The decoration of the living room is more European-style, and the whole layout looks very comfortable without making people feel expensive.

The dark-colored sofa is matched with a marble-style coffee table, and there are newspapers and periodicals on it that I don't know how long.

A few minutes later, Chu Zimo, wearing a pink apron, walked to Xiao Qiang's side with a cup of tea.

"Drink water first, the ingredients in the refrigerator are limited, let's make up for it today!"

Xiao Qiang is not picky at all, if she hadn't been too lazy to go back to order takeaway, she wouldn't have come here with Chu Zimo.

His eyes fell on the pink apron on Chu Zimo's body. It must be said that this man is very handsome, and even a pink apron can give off a different temperament.

Xu Shi was so fascinated by watching, at some point, Chu Zimo had already sat beside Xiao Qiang, his eyes were facing each other, the mint smell on Chu Zimo's body made Xiao Qiang feel much better.

After returning to his senses, he subconsciously stepped back.

"You, why are you here?"

Chu Zimo stood up and said with a smile, "Why, do you think I'm handsome? Are you deeply attracted to me?"

Xiao Qiang turned her head unnaturally, "Aren't you cooking? I'm hungry!"

"Oh!"

After speaking, Chu Zimo returned to the kitchen again.

A few minutes later, the aroma from the kitchen made Xiao Qiang get up unconsciously and walked over.

The kitchen is huge, and Xiao Qiang leaned against the door, looking at Chu Zimo in a pink apron, skillfully stir-frying, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes.

The man who cooks is the most handsome, this sentence is really true.

Seemingly aware of Xiao Qiang's eyes, Chu Zimo looked back and smiled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

The voice was even more gentle and watery: "Waiting for a few minutes, if you are really hungry, there are drinks in the refrigerator!"

The gentle eyes made Xiao Qiang shudder in fright, and fled the kitchen immediately.

In the living room, Xiao Qiang covered her hot cheeks and shook her head carelessly.

She must be too free, or she was poisoned by the old man's blind date these days, otherwise, how could she think that a stranger who has met a few times is very handsome!
A few minutes later, Chu Zimo put a bowl of fragrant tomato and egg noodles on the coffee table in front of Xiao Qiang, and then handed it over for a pair of pear wood chopsticks.

"Eat it, try it, see if it suits your taste!"

Maybe it was because the lights were too bright, but Xiao Qiang forgot to refute, took the chopsticks from Chu Zimo's hand, and lowered her head to eat a mouthful of noodles without touching the wound.

I have to say that this is the best noodle Xiao Qiang has ever eaten besides her mother.

The taste is strong and fragrant, the tomato and egg soup is completely soaked in the noodles...

Xiao Qiang ate quickly, but finished a bowl of noodles in a few minutes.

"How is it? How is it? Is it delicious?"

Chu Zimo sat opposite Xiao Qiang, his deep pupils were filled with anticipation.

Xiao Qiang was startled, the nature of being a foodie made her forget that there are other people here.

Wiping the corners of her mouth unnaturally, Xiao Qiang got up and coughed a few times to cover up the embarrassment in her heart.

"Then what, I'll go first, thank you for your face!"

"Wait, this is for you."

Xiao Qiang turned around and looked at the small white bottle handed over by Chu Zimo, her eyes flashed with puzzlement.

"Take it and use it. Although you are a soldier, it's okay to have scars on your body, but you are a girl after all. This is a scar removal medicine specially developed by my friend. It is very effective."

Xiao Qiang was slightly taken aback, it was the first time someone told her that she was still a girl!

Without hesitation, he took the ointment from Chu Zimo's hand, pretending to be indifferent and said: "You owe me this, I will not thank you."

Chu Zimo looked at Xiao Qiang in front of him with some amusement, but he didn't speak.

After Xiao Qiang left, the smile on Chu Zimo's face already lived up to it.

He took out his phone from his pocket and dialed a number.

"Hey, it's me. I'll be in Xiangjiang Garden within half an hour."

After hanging up the phone, Chu Zimo glanced at the bowl of noodles that Xiao Qiang had eaten, took it into the kitchen, threw it directly into the dishwasher, and then turned and went upstairs.

Xiao Qiang, who returned to the villa next door, went straight into the bedroom.

There were too many things to do today, and my neck and back were injured again, so I lay down on the bed straight up, and then dialed Luo Zhigang's phone.

"Hey, Luo Tuan, yes, it was lifted early in the morning."

"Well, what's the purpose this time?"

Luo Zhigang on the other end of the phone rubbed his brows, and said in a deep voice, "Researchers from country m and country r will come to Beijing to discuss cooperation on new scientific research projects in the next few days. As for Chu Zimo, it is this cooperation project. The person in charge of the Chu Family Research Center!"

Xiao Qiang understood, no wonder he saw Chu Zimo in the International Center, it turned out that he was the main person in charge of this incident.

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Qiang got up and went to the bathroom, scrubbed her body briefly, and changed into comfortable pajamas.

Turned off the light in the bedroom, leaned over the bed and fell asleep.

A week passed quietly, and Xiao Qiang returned directly to Xiao's house the day after she was injured.

In the living room of the Xiao family, Xiao Qiang was supposed to go back to the army today, but she received a call from Luo Tuan temporarily, saying that it was the birthday party of the Patriarch of the Chu family in three days, and she was asked to represent the Falcon team to celebrate his birthday.

The most important point is that the project researched by country M is in cooperation with the scientific research center under the Chu Group.

So you should go to celebrate your birthday in both emotion and reason.

"Qiang'er, you can go buy gifts by yourself later, I forgot that I have a class in the morning."

Lin Wanru went downstairs while talking to Xiao Qiang who had been waiting downstairs for a while.

After finishing speaking, regardless of whether Xiao Qiang agreed or not, she turned around and left the compound with her bag.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Xiao Qiang went to the famous antique street in the capital alone.

According to the introduction about Chu Tianba, this person prefers collections such as antiques, regardless of their value.

Xiao Qiang doesn't know much about antiques, but one must understand.

"Qiang'er, here, here..."

As soon as Xiao Qiang got out of the car, she heard someone calling her name from a distance. Following the voice, she saw Tang Jili in a white shirt, waving at her.

Tang Jili, the president of the Tang Group, Tang Jili's grandfather and her father are comrades-in-arms.

Originally thought that Tang Jili's grandson would join the army, but he didn't want him to flourish in the business world, so he had a fight with Mr. Tang because of this.

"Brother Tang, you came early."

Xiao Qiang's voice was calm with a hint of a smile.

"You girl, didn't you say ten o'clock? I dare not be late for a second. Let's go. I'll take you to a store."

Tang Jili was three years older than Xiao Qiang. He liked to call Xiao Qiang girl since he was a child. Xiao Qiang was noncommittal about this title.

Xiao Qiang followed Tang Jili into an antique shop.

The furnishings in the shop looked a bit old, Xiao Qiang watched Tang Jili walk in by himself.

It seems that I have been here many times, and I am very familiar with this place.

"Uncle Wang, take out some of your collection-worthy antiques."

Hearing the sound, Xiao Qiang saw an old man in a white gown coming out, who looked quite fairy-like.

"Hey, didn't you just come here yesterday? Why are you here again. Oh, who is this lady?"

"Hi Uncle Wang, I'm Xiao Qiang."

Uncle Wang was slightly stunned, but his attitude immediately became enthusiastic.

"You are Xiao Qiang. I am Wang Tiegang. I hugged you when I was a child. I want to see some antiques. Uncle Wang will give you a gift."

Xiao Qiang thanked him politely, and saw Uncle Wang take out a small box, which must be full of treasures.

Sure enough, as the box was opened, a tangy fragrance wafted out.

"How about it? This is a high-quality agarwood, which has the miraculous effect of calming the nerves, helping sleep, and dredging the meridians. It is most suitable for the elderly."

Uncle Wang took out a string of agarwood bracelets from the box, with agarwood beads of the same size, glowing with black light.It does smell refreshing.

"Okay, let's go with this one, please Uncle Wang wrap it up for me."

"Hey."

Tang Jili took out a card from his wallet and was about to hand it to Uncle Wang.On the way, Xiao Qiang stopped her.

"Brother Tang, I have money."

"You girl, you still see each other like this with me."

Seeing that Xiao Qiang's face remained unchanged, Tang Jili had no choice but to put the card back into the wallet.

Xiao Qiang didn't know how much the agarwood bracelet cost. After swiping the card, she followed Tang Jili and left the antique shop.

"Come on, I'll treat you to dinner."

"it is good!"

Xiao Qiang has a cold temper and doesn't like to talk very much, so Tang Jili is often speaking while Xiao Qiang is listening and doesn't express his opinion.

It's just that the two of them saw a somewhat familiar figure as soon as they reached the gate of Antique Street.

"Chu Zimo, don't be shameless. Do you really think that the old man picked you up and you are the young master of the Chu family? Let me tell you, as long as I, Chu Ziyuan, are around for a day, you will never be able to climb over my head." Go, go, and pick up my young master's shoes."

Chu Zimo?Xiao Qiang's gaze froze, and she stopped in her tracks.

Across a group of spectators, Xiao Qiang's gaze easily saw a familiar figure.

He was dressed in a black suit and a pink shirt, and his head was lowered so that people could not see his expression clearly.

"Why don't you leave?" Seeing Xiao Qiang stop, Tang Jili also stopped.

"It's okay, who is that person over there?"

Xiao Qiang pointed at Chu Ziyuan, with a hint of confusion in her eyes.

"Oh, you say him, he is Chu Tianba's son, and the one next to him is the child Chu Tianba picked up more than [-] years ago. It is said that he is the illegitimate son of Mr. Chu. It seems that this young master is going to torture Chu again. Zimo."

Xiao Qiang's eyebrows frowned imperceptibly. "To torture again?"

"Yeah, I heard that this young master of the Chu family has always used tricks to harm him, but fortunately, Chu Zimo is fine every time. It's strange to say that the old man of the Chu family may not know, but Things like this never stop..."

Xiao Qiang frowned, and listened carefully to Tang Jili's words, but her eyes fell on Chu Zimo for a long time.

"Go, Master Ben asked you to pick up shoes, you don't understand, do you?"

Chu Zimo kept his head down, but suddenly raised it, and glanced at Xiao Qiang through the crowd.Then he walked step by step to the leather shoe that Chu Ziyuan threw out.

He bent down, reached out to pick it up, and then turned around with a fawning smile on his face.

Knowing that it was a fake smile, Xiao Qiang forcibly made a trace of disgust in her heart.

"Brother, your shoes."

Chu Ziyuan laughed wildly, and the wanton laughter seemed to be mocking the man in front of him.

I saw Chu Ziyuan sticking out a foot. "Since the second brother picked it up for me, how about helping the elder brother put it on?"

No one noticed that Chu Zimo's hair-covered eyes revealed a strong hostility and a heart full of forbearance.

"Eldest young master, why don't we just forget about it, we still have to prepare a gift for the master." The man standing beside Chu Ziyuan said in a low voice.

Then I heard a "slap" slap, which hit the man directly in the face.

"What are you? How dare you intercede for this bastard?"

Chu Ziyuan hated Chu Zimo very much. If it wasn't for Chu Zimo, how could the old man hand over the affairs of the Chu Research Center to Chu Zimo.

Originally, he wanted Chu Zimo and the International Center to be destroyed together, but he didn't want to kill Chen Yaojin halfway to save Chu Zimo.

"To wear or not to wear, second brother, you can think clearly."

The corners of Chu Zimo's mouth raised slightly, and his eyes were full of smiles.

"Look at what elder brother said, of course I wear shoes for elder brother. It is my good fortune to be able to wear shoes for elder brother."

Chu Ziyuan laughed wildly, stretched out his palm, and patted Chu Zimo's face.

"Second brother is really the second brother, well, you go, remember not to forget to attend father's birthday banquet on time."
