Chapter 1044: For the sake of a man, do you have any future?
The Apple of the Ruthless CEO's Eye: My Sweet Wife Is so Adorable
Qiao Mu hugged his neck and kissed him on the cheek. Then, she opened her WeChat and sent a group message, asking everyone what they were doing and when they would be back.
â I want to wait until the eighth day of the Lunar New Year when my relatives are done visiting before I go back, â Chi Xia said.
Qiao Mu smiled. â Xiaxia, why are you back so early? â Do you have a place to stay? Or are you going to join Young Master Su?â
Chi Xia was speechless. Goodbye!â
It was obvious that Qiao Mu was right. Su Chen wanted her to go back to work three days earlier, which meant that he wanted her to go back tomorrow. However, once she was home, she could not care less. He had already taken advantage of her, and it would not benefit her at all if she went back earlier. Anyway, he could not do anything to her at home.
Immediately after, Baby Guan popped up in the group:âI canât go back for the time being. Thereâs too much going on at home.â
âHave you contacted Lu Jingzhi?â Qiao Mu asked.
âIâm too busy to bother with him.â
Obviously, Baby Guan did not know that Lu Jingzhi had gone to Hong Kong.
At this moment, Baby Guan was busy entertaining her family.
Baby Guan had a lot of relatives, but their relationships were very complicated. The relatives seemed to have a good relationship, but they were secretly scheming. Therefore, Baby Guan disliked the contact between relatives during the New Year.
However, Father Guan and Mother Guan were smart enough to travel abroad on the second day of the Lunar New Year. Only Baby Guan and her brother were left at home.
That day, Guan Baobeiâs aunt invited all her relatives and friends to attend the banquet she held. It was said to be a family banquet, but there were many business celebrities.
Although Baby Guan really didnât want to participate, her parents werenât at home, so she and her brother could only represent their family. Her aunt already had all kinds of opinions about her. If she didnât participate, she would be criticized. However, Baby Guan had always been a carefree person, so she didnât want to argue with them.
During the banquet, Baby Guan was sitting on the sofa and texting Qiao Mu out of boredom. When she mentioned Lu Jingzhi, she thought for a moment. She had not seen him for half a month, and she wondered if he was as carefree as ever.
At midnight on New Yearâs Eve, she received a call from him. After that, she didnât contact him anymore. She only saw a missed call this morning. When she replied, he turned off his phone.
She didnât know if this man was doing something that he didnât want others to disturb.
Thinking of Lu Jingzhi, Baby Guan stared blankly at the man in front of her. She had already made up her mind to cut ties with this man and not marry him. However, after not seeing him for a few days, she kept thinking about what he was doing. Every time this happened, she felt that she was useless. Why could she not escape from that manâs claws?
At this moment, a wealthy lady walked up to Chi Xia and saw her sitting on the sofa doing nothing. She was very displeased, ââBaby, itâs not that I want to criticize you, but are you hiding here in such an occasion? Donât blame me for not reminding you. The distinguished guests here are all people with status. There are many noble young masters. You should seize this opportunity to get close to them.â
Baby Guan smiled. â Aunt, thank you for your kindness. Iâm not interested in them. â
âAre you really not interested, or are you still unwilling to give up on that Lu guy? Your parents spoil you, but you canât be so stubborn. Iâll have to talk to you about it. Why did you go to such a faraway university for a man? Donât you have any future?â
