Chapter 428 I Have a Strange Coin

don't go to the Tang family banquet. Taking care of you is such a hassle."But I want to see him… The words caught in her throat, hesitation clouding her expression.Lu Qinan didn't know what she was s...This time the company booked economy class tickets for them on their business trip.

Three female colleagues who were traveling with them, two of them grumbled, "Didn't we hear that a new boss was joining The company bought brand new coffee machines for tens of thousands of yuan each. Why can't they be more generous and book us first-class tickets when we're on business trips..."

Qiao Bao'er didn't have any thoughts on these treatments.

As always, she wasn't very good at getting along with female colleagues. She walked in silence, dragging her suitcase behind her, quickly went through security, and found a seat in the waiting area.

The colleagues behind her walked much slower than her. Judging from her exquisite makeup today, everyone was quite looking forward to this trip abroad. The beautiful dresses, the latest high heels, paired with brand-name silk scarves and handbags, each step seemed to exude a kind of nobility.

When others are vying for attention, learning to be a little humble can actually help you build good relationships.

Zhu Xiaowei has a farsighted understanding of how to get along with people. He warned Qiao Baier long ago not to wear clothing, shoes, and bags from popular brands these days, lest there be more gossip.

Several people were waiting in the lounge. Qiao Bao'er had been riding high at their company recently, and naturally, curious glances fell upon her.

Qiao Bao'er's small black suitcase, it's not a brand name, it can't compare to their Louis Vuitton or Versace.

Jo Bao'er was wearing ordinary dark blue jeans, a simple white shirt, and an unremarkable camel-colored Korean-style wool coat. She couldn't even find the little label on the back collar.

Their outfits are not even in the same league as Chanel and Prada.

Women always get used to competing for small victories and rejoicing, their tone of voice becomes much gentler: “ Qiao Bao’er, what did you do before”

Qiao Bao'er had no animosity or sentiment towards these women. She answered their questions directly: "I've done some part-time jobs, I'm married, and I have two children at home."

Only then did he notice that Qiao Baoer was indeed wearing a wedding ring on her left ring finger. It was a very plain style, without even a single diamond.

Women's primary objective, is love without diamonds!

They looked at Qiao Bao'er with a hint of sympathy in their eyes. Her husband wouldn't even buy her a diamond, so their life must be pretty tough.

A slightly chubby and plump colleague sighed directly, " Qiao Bao'er, you are so beautiful, it's a pity."

“Yeah, why did you get married so early Women nowadays aren't that naive. Who would want to marry and have children to become a housewife Just giving birth is a huge sacrifice, your body changes, confinement, breastfeeding... it's simply inhumane. Those nasty men wouldn't even sympathize with us. They just say we women don't make money at home and can't even raise children properly…”

When we started talking, everyone felt a sense of nostalgia.

"Your husband must have said that you don't make money at home and aren't good at housework, so he forced you to come out to work, huh All men are bad!" Look at Qiao Baoer's beautiful face and tall figure, she doesn't deserve this treatment.

Qiao Baoer sat upright, her expression slightly startled.

Who says she doesn't get along with people, who says she can't get along with the same sex, look, now they treat her like best friends as if they were indignant.

The atmosphere was palpable, and even the most oblivious person could sense that disrupting it now would be a bad idea.

Because Qiao Ba'er felt embarrassed to speak ill of Jun Zhimu, she nodded awkwardly at them.

"How old are your two children now"

"They are twins, they will be one year old soon."

“Oh dear, you really have to be careful with Joe Baoer,” a slightly plump colleague suddenly leaned in nervously and whispered to her, “My cousin’s husband was always glued to her side the year they got married. But who would have thought that man looked so refined! Just two years into their marriage, when their son was only one year old, he secretly started seeing other women. He even told my cousin she didn't make any money at home and complained about how hard it was for him to be the sole breadwinner.”

"Jiang gritted his teeth, "Now my sister-in-law refuses to divorce no matter what. She just can't bear it, she doesn't want to make things easy for that couple."

Qiao Baoer was quite shocked to hear this gossip. "Isn't your sister at a greater loss if she doesn't get a divorce"

The plump girl waved her hands excitedly and explained, "Hey, you don't understand now. If your man cheats and gets a divorce, he'll even calculate the house and not give it to you. He's so cruel, can you pretend to be generous You won't have a good time either, and then he shouldn't expect to live well!"

qiao Baoer doesn't understand their thoughts. Life is so long, why lose to a scumbag

If you meet a scumbag, the best thing to do is cut your losses.

"Having said so much, I'm a bit thirsty, you know."

There was a self-serve fruit juicer in the waiting area. A plump female colleague with a cheerful personality, she dashed to the machine wanting to buy a freshly squeezed juice.

Turning his head, he shouted, “Hey, who here has an extra coin I’m short one dollar.”

"Don't shout so loudly, don't run, okay It's embarrassing, do you know that"

Her colleague Feng Rongrong, with her carefully made-up face, covered her face and walked over, lowering her voice. "We're going on a business trip abroad, who would be so petty to carry only coins Just use large denomination banknotes and get change."

"Sorry, I'm used to it. I'll be careful when I go out."

The chubby girl reacted and saw that several foreigners were looking at her. She felt a bit embarrassed for a moment.

"What should I do now, I've already put in over ten coins, just one more is needed." The chubby girl was distressed at this juicer, she was trying to figure out how to get her change back.

"I'm impressed, you brought dozens of coins on a business trip. Do you think you're going to the market"

Female colleague Feng Rongrong took a step back, almost unwilling to stand close to the plus-sized girl.

There was another female colleague who was always very quiet. Her name was Anning, and Zhu Xiaowei had said that Anning had a good temper and that you could go to her if you had any problems.

Anne settled in front of the plump girl, her voice mild and apologetic. “I don’t have any coins either.”

Feng Rongrong couldn't stand this dawdling any longer. Her voice was a little sharp, "I told you already, whoever goes to the meeting needs to bring coins. My god, Fatty how could you be so foolish... Forget it, you wouldn't even part with a few dozen coins, would you Don't worry about this small amount of money. We'll be boarding soon, and there are drinks on the plane."

"I have one dollar."

Jo Bao'er didn't intend to get involved in this trivial matter. She knew she couldn't possibly have any coins on her, so she stood at the back, watching with boredom, her hands tucked into the pockets of her coat.

She actually had a coin in her pocket.

The chubby girl didn't even look at Qiao Baoer, she just grabbed her coin and put it into the juicer, wanting to get out of this awkward situation as quickly as possible.

However, the machine soon spat out Qiao Bao'er's coin again.

Unidentified

Joe Bao'er and Fat Sister both lowered their heads to look, only then did they notice that it wasn't a one-dollar coin. Looking closely, the size and thickness were very similar to ours, but the pattern was obviously different.

"Oh, Qiao Bao'er, don't tease me."

The chubby girl was desperate. Several people in the distance were staring at her, and she felt extremely uncomfortable because she was very shy and hated being stared at by others.

"I don't know either."

Qiao Bao'er looked sincere, she hadn't expected this wasn't circulating currency.

Taking one last look at the dark silver coin with black veins, it seemed quite old. The edges were tinged with yellow earth, like an ancient artifact unearthed from the past. help move the remaining fire flints onto the oxcart.Samba and her partner worked in perfect sync, quickly gathering stones, finding bags, and collecting firewood and fruit as tools...Lu Qinan and the...
