Chapter 42 Are you jealous?
r made you a host, don't you like that job The HR manager is just following his boss's orders, he might be more assertive because he's an old employee, don't take it to heart. Why not talk to Lu Qinia...After finishing breakfast, Qiao Bao'er went back to her room and scrolled through gossip about Liu Yiy's kiss marks on her phone...
"I bet last night with her was intense..." She mumbled, scrolling through Weibo with a complicated expression.
Even she herself didn't know why she cared so much...
It's like I'm feeling jealous.
Jealous! Qiao Bao'er was startled at the thought.
"How could I possibly be jealous Jun Zhi Mu already made it clear to me, it was just a business transaction..." Just as she was lost in her own thoughts.
Suddenly, her phone vibrated. She received a friend request on WeChat.
"Who is this"
Qiao Bao'er furrowed her brows, looking at the screen of her phone. Someone with the nickname "Brother Lu" had just added her as a friend.
What a narcissistic person, calling himself "Brother Lu" and "Affectionate Brother."
Joe Bao'er remained expressionless and simply ignored him.
The other party might think Qiao Baor won't pass, and immediately sent another temporary session, 【I am Lu Qinan】
Lu Qin'nan, this nickname of yours is really flamboyant.
Jo Bao'er agreed to add him as a friend and immediately complained about him.
Lukege: ["My nickname is way better than your "Big Treasure," Qiao Ba'er. Your nickname lacks depth."]
Unbeatable Treasure: "Lu Qinan, are you adding me as a friend just to waste your time and fight with me"
Qiao Bao'er thought her WeChat nickname was perfect. It was simple, easy to remember, and most importantly, it had presence.
Looking at Lu Qinan's WeChat nickname, she suddenly remembered when Lu Qinan reminded her not to fall for him, that Jun Zhimu couldn't possibly like her, he was just a stand-in for Liu Yiy.
The more Qiao Baoer thought about it, the worse she felt.
Undefeated Treasure: "Lu Qinan, I'm very busy. Don't bother me if you have nothing to do, and definitely don't bother me if you have something to do." She quickly replied and wanted to exit WeChat.
Lu Ge: 【Wait a minute, Qiao Bao'er, I have something serious to talk to you about!】
Qiao Bao'er hesitated, looking at what Lu Gongzi said seriously.
Lu Ge: "I've been pretty busy lately, so I probably won't have time to hang out with you. Well, you know Liu Yiy is the legitimate wife..."
"I told you, I know. Why are you so bothersome I won't like Junzhi Mu, and I know I don't have the right to think about those things. I won't take his place—"
Joe Baobao, as if stimulated, roared angrily and sent him a voice message directly.
Lu Qinan raised an eyebrow, even through the phone screen he could feel that this woman was angry.
This woman lives with Junzhi Mu all day long, how could she have no emotional fluctuations... It's terrible.
Lù Gege: 【Hey, Qiao Ba'er don't be angry. I won't say those things anymore. Actually, Zhi Mu is quite busy recently, so he doesn't have time to accompany you. He asked me to take some time to send you to visit your aunt. 】
Jo Baoer looked at the message he had just sent, pondered for a moment, and then realized Jun Zhimu was busy with his Miss Liu. He probably wouldn't pay attention to her anymore. She was editing a reply, ready to agree to go out together.
At that moment, the maid knocked on the door.
"Madam, Old Master wants you to go to the main hall. The Qiao family has arrived…"
Jo Bao'er raised her head to look at the door. Hearing that people from the Qiao family were coming, she suddenly stopped her movements.
The people of the Qiao family...
The phone vibrated again. Lu Qinan sent her a message: "By the way, Qiao Baor, did Zhomu go back to Jun's house last night"
qiao Bao'er ignored him any longer, tidied her clothes, and went downstairs with a somewhat solemn expression.
To Qiao Bao'er's surprise, she ran into Jun Zhi Mu upon arriving at the Jun family estate.
It's not just Jun Zhi Mu who's back, there are also... people from the Qiao family behind him.
"What are you doing here"
Jun Zhimu walked past her, his right hand naturally encircling her waist as he led her into the Jun family hall.
Qiao Bao'er was a little confused. She glanced at Jun Zhimu beside her, then turned to look at Qiao Wenyu behind her. How could they coincidentally be together...
"The shepherd personally picked us up at the airport, it's really an honor." Standing beside Joe Wenyu was a beautiful woman, she was his stepmother Ye Wei.
Did Junzhi Mu go to the airport early in the morning to pick up the Qiao family
He wasn't messing around with Liu Yiyin last night, was he He came back so early, it must have been Old Master Jun who ordered him.
The Jun family's grand and opulent hall boasts a magnificent eight-meter-high crystal chandelier that glitters with extravagance.
Joe Baoer sat beside Jun Zhimu, while opposite them were Qiao Wenyu and Ye Wei. Old Master Jun sat at the head of the table. Everyone exchanged a few polite greetings, but Joe Baoer remained silent with a complex expression on her face.
"Now that they're officially married, we're in-laws. There's no need to be so formal," said Grandpa Jun in his deep, authoritative voice.
As for the wedding, we'll just have it after Bao'er gives birth...
Joe Wenyuyu's face showed no joy. He spoke with a somber expression, "Mr. Jun, I have always held great respect for your Jun family. However, in this matter, I feel my daughter is not worthy of your young master. I disagree…"
Qiao Baoer listened to her father berating her, she lowered her head and endured it.
Joe Wenyu continued in a soft voice, "And I heard that there was no romance between her and Master Jun, it was just an accidental pregnancy. There's no need for them to get married..."
"Are you worried, Qiao Bao'er will be wronged when she marries into our Jun family and that we will abuse her!" Patriarch Jun sounded displeased and coldly retorted.
"Master Jun, we didn't mean it that way, please don't misunderstand..." Ye Wei quickly smiled and appeasedly explained.
Just as Ye Wei’s words fell, two figures strode into the hall from outside.
"Dad, it's so lively today. Who came to wish you a happy new year"
Jun Qingya smiled gracefully, carrying in a bag of goodies. Right beside her was Yi Sicheng.
Qiao Wenyu looked up and met Yi Sicheng's gaze. Both of them had expressions of surprise and a complicated mix of emotions. Yi Sicheng had been to the Qiao family before, as Ye Xi's boyfriend, but now...
Joe turned his head, looking at Old Master Jun with complicated eyes.
"My daughter is only a second-time bride, she's probably not good enough for Young Master Jun. What's more, her former husband happens to be a cousin of the Jun family. It's ridiculous and will only bring shame upon us."
Qiao Wenyu's attitude was exceptionally firm, as if he was very resistant to the idea of being in-laws with the Jun family.
Mr. Jun's face was as dark as night, and his voice was cold and sharp as he roared, "Who dares to mock the Jun family—"
A deathly silence fell upon the Jun family hall. No one dared to speak, not even Qiao Wenyu, whose face turned pale with embarrassment. He knew he couldn't offend this elder.
The atmosphere suddenly became heavy and eerie.
Jun Qingya had a hint of ambiguity in her eyes. She had heard that the Qiao family would be coming today, so she deliberately came with her son to stir things up. This was because she strongly opposed the marriage between Jun Zhimu and Qiao Baier.
"Dinner is served," Junzhi Mu suddenly ordered the butler beside him.
His words shattered the heavy silence.
The rest of the people dared not speak carelessly, Old Master Jun glared at Jun Zhimu before taking the lead and walking towards the dining room with his cane.ned to the company, she was met with many cold stares."Thinking it was her own company, she came whenever she wanted and left whenever she pleased.""If you are a wealthy person, please don't come to w...
