Chapter 577: Miss Qiao Wins by a Narrow Margin

"Jo Baoer spoke resolutely, turned around, and took a big step towards the door."Please eat first.""I'm not hungry."He watched her walk away with strong strides, his tone firm, "Then don't even think...The globe did not display that archipelago.

"...Is the map in my hand fake" Perhaps it was a prank.

Just as Qiao Baier muttered to herself, she noticed something. "What are you saying"

Certainly knowledgeable, Qiao Baoer didn't mind sharing the map she had obtained with them. She lowered her head and was rummaging through her rose-colored handbag, wanting to take it out for them to see if it was real or fake.

He raised an eyebrow, watching her every move.

"Joe Baoer, my mom wants you to come over for dinner at our place tonight!" Lu Qinian walked over in a hurry, still holding his phone.

"And your aunt, my mom seems to have something important to tell your aunt privately."

Lu Qinan received an imperial decree from his empress dowager, of course he had to complete the mission.

Lu Qin'an suddenly interrupted, Qiao Bao'er stopped her movements and looked up. Because it involved her aunt, she was more cautious, "What did your mother want from my aunt"

"I'm not familiar with your mother."

Qiao Bao'er is currently in such a state that she has even forgotten her husband and son, let alone Lu's mother.

Lu Qinan smiled, his sunshine smile handsome. "…My mom said it doesn't matter if you aren't familiar with her, she's already very familiar with you."

As the saying goes, "Like mother, like daughter." Thick skin must be hereditary.

Under her unruly behavior, Qiao Ba'er forgot to take out the map for help identifying it, and she even automatically asked to go to Lu's house for a meal.

"...I'll send her back to your house before 10 pm." Lu Qinan assured Jun Zimo face-to-face.

A lot has happened recently, Jun Zhimu hasn't sorted it out, he's very busy. Originally, there was no way he would agree to let Qiao Baier run around outside at this time. He felt more at ease with the Lu family, glanced at them and thought for a while.

"9 o'clock," he mentioned.

Lu Qinan immediately agreed, "Okay, okay, I'll definitely send her back to the Jun family before 9 p.m."

It's truly difficult to borrow someone from Master Jun.

Qiao Bao'er stood aside, with no say in the matter. After the two men had made their plans, she went to the Lu family with Lu Qinian in his car.

Lu Qinan even specially sent someone to pick up Gu Ruyue.

"Was my aunt close with your mom before"

"They might be good friends privately." Lu Qinian drove, with Qiao Baier in the back seat. He made a casual guess, "Maybe they got together to chat about old times."

After all, Gu Ruyue and his mother are from the same generation, so they should have a lot in common to talk about.

Staring listlessly out the car window at the scenery whizzing by, she heard their conversation and a smirk played on her lips. She knew that Gu Ruyue had no connection with the Lu family whatsoever.

“Bao’er, does your wound still hurt”

"Goodness, how could this happen Si'er told us you've been through so much hardship."

Lu's mother immediately ran over with warmth as soon as they entered, talking to Qiao Bao'er and looking at her with concern. "It doesn't matter if you don't remember those things, don't put pressure on yourself. The most important thing is to get better now, the men will take care of everything else, you don't have to worry about it, just take good care of yourself."

Faced with Lu Mu's overflowing concern, Qiao Baoer felt a little overwhelmed. She didn't know how to respond, so she mumbled a somewhat awkward "thank you."

"Mom, don't you know she hit her head Don't scare her."

Lu Qinian sighed. Later, he would have to return the person completely, and if anything happened to them, it would be troublesome.

Mother Lu turned her head and immediately glared, "We have guests at home. Do you know how to be polite Go make some hot tea right now!"

Lu Qinan didn't dare to resist, silently slipping into the kitchen to pour tea and water.

Qiao Bao'er smiled, Mother Lu's ability to change her face was truly eye-opening. This Lu family was truly amusing.

"Originally, Lu's mother wanted you to be her daughter-in-law, but since you are the wife of someone from the Jun family, the difficulty level is too high, so she had to give up." She told her kindly.

This Lu mother is quite a unique flower in the upper circle. Last time she happened to see Zhu Xiaowei being bullied by people from the Pei family, she even called Mrs. Pei and scolded her.

To put it simply, Mrs. Lu's brazen temper stems from the men in her family. Her husband is always agreeable and her four sons wouldn't dare defy their mother.

The Lu family's family rules are quite unique.

"Marrying into the Lu family should be a happy thing." Qiao Bao'er immediately took a liking to this Mrs. Lu.

"Her four sons all refused to get married. Psychologically speaking, it's very likely due to childhood trauma."

She was whispering to Qiao Bao'er about the Lu family when Gu Ruyue's car arrived.

Gu Ruoyan was surprised to hear that Lu Qinian's mother wanted to talk to her. She didn't have much interaction with the Lu family, but since they invited her, Gu Ruoyan readily agreed.

There isn't much food, just eat whatever you like.

Tonight's meal was cooked by Mother Lu and Father Lu together. The Lu family doesn't like to use servants, and they usually cook for themselves.

At the dinner table, Lu Qinan's three older brothers were out on business and didn't come home for dinner. Only a few of them sat together to eat, just like an ordinary family, quite warm and cozy.

After dinner, Mrs. Lu ordered her fourth son to take Qiao Baoer and go for a walk outside. Lu Qinan had no choice but to obey, while Mrs. Lu chatted with Gu Ruyue over tea in the living room.

"...I don't want to go for a walk and feed the mosquitoes."

Qiao Bao'er turned her head back every three steps, wondering why Lu's mother had specifically called her "auntie."

This community where Lu's family lives has particularly good landscaping. It's true that you might get bitten by mosquitoes even if you go for a walk in the evening.

"You have no discernment, you didn't see that my mom intentionally sent you away." Lu Qinan continued to follow orders. "Come this way, there are no mosquitos here, and you might encounter a few wild animals."

"Qiao Bao'er was a little unconvinced and nudged him with her elbow, "Do you know what they were talking about"

"Just finished eating and drinking, I looked at her with a glance, “Do you think I'm a fortune teller”

Strolling along, he was fiddling with some small device in his hands while listening to music through headphones.

"What are you doing" Qiao Bao'er asked again.

Without raising his head, he continued to tinker.

Lu Qinan walked behind the two women, feeling very strange. Qiao Bao'er seemed to be quite willing to get close.

It's possible that Qiao Bao'er and Lianshan previously investigated Jun Zhiyan together, or perhaps they forged a revolutionary friendship long ago.

In terms of momentum, Qiao Bao'er appears to be bullied by someone who is cold and aloof.

“One thousand dollars a minute, and if it’s less than a minute, it’ll still be charged at a minute’s rate.” She fixed her earphone wires, then waved them in front of Qiao Baoer, looking sly and treacherous as she bargained.

"Let me hear what's in your headphones first."

"Sorry, no trial service offered." sounds really greedy.

"What if it's playing a song"

"Whether you like it or not, I'm democratic. It's free trade, and no one forces you... Besides, I price things according to my mood. In a minute, when we get to that tree up ahead, it'll be 3000 yuan per minute."

Joe Baoer was a little angry, "I have no money!"

"Your husband is wealthy." I reminded her.

Lu Qinan's eyes widened as he watched the immoral inducement unfold. Three thousand yuan per minute, this guy really had a big appetite, preying on Qiao Bao'er's naivety and gullibility.

Qiao Bao'er picked up the headphone wire and put it on her ears. She heard the conversation between Lu's mother and Gu Ruyue, and her eyes widened in surprise. Sure enough, this woman was not a good person.

With a smug grin, she casually slipped a miniature microphone into Mrs. Lu's pocket. This money was easy to make.

Jo Baoer listened intently to the sounds coming from her headphones. It was a few everyday matters, "... I've temporarily booked for 30 minutes, when I get back, I'll get Junzhi Mu's checkbook and make it out to you."

Bell's palsy, "I only accept cash."

"No cash on me. Why don't I go back to my family home and fetch some gold jewelry as collateral" Qiao Baoer was very agreeable, "If you like antiques, I could also bring out a vase from my family home for you."

His face was grim.

Jo Baobao sighed, "I told you, I have no money."

As the saying goes, a barefooted person is unafraid to wear shoes.

Miss Qiao wins slightly.

Lu Qinan listened to the two women talking, barely restraining a smile.

A hazy moonlight shone above, stretching their shadows long. Qiao Baor was wearing headphones and wasn't paying much attention, as Aunt Lu and her aunt were busy chatting about their youthful years.

Your sister Gu Ruqing was quite famous back then, even my old Lu, who has face blindness, said he remembered her...

My father worried a lot back then and didn't like my sister being too showy.

Bao'er looks seven points like your sister...

Joe Baobao listened to their conversation, finding it rather dull. Looking back, she didn't have many memories of her mother, Gu Ruqing.

Land's mother paused, as if hesitating, "Today I went to the airport to see off my third son. Then, I saw a woman wearing a silk headscarf. That woman looked very much like your sister Gu Ruqing."ly beautiful as Qiao Baoer and didn't have many suitors. She only had one boyfriend during her time in college, a very ordinary relationship. She hadn't heard any sweet nothings and even got married t...
