Chapter 13

Planning to Skip Work?

“It’s fine,” replied Qiao Yue before she walked back to the dining table for some breakfast.

She didn’t want to cause any trouble and tried to follow the Qiao family rules. She didn’t expect Qiao Xin to cause trouble for her so early in the morning.

“Uncle Fu, where’s the bike I rode here yesterday?” Qiao Yue asked.

When the butler heard this, he thought for a moment before he replied, “Fifth young master, your bike has been parked in the garage yesterday.”

“Alright.”

Seeing Qiao Yue nod, the butler asked a servant to bring Qiao Yue’s bike to the main entrance. The Dodge Tomahawk wasn’t some expensive car to the Qiao family, but it was ridden here by the young master who was born and raised in the countryside, which said a lot. The butler thought that he should pay more attention to the young master when he was parking the bike yesterday.

Just as the butler was carefully observing Qiao Yue, the sound of a car stopping came from outside the door.

“Xiao Yue, come out quickly. I’ll send you to school.”

The butler stepped out first and was stunned for a second when he saw Qiao Ze. “Third young master, don’t you have work today?”

“How can work be more important than Xiao Yue? Isn’t that right, Xiao Yue?”

When the butler heard this, he quickly made way for Qiao Yue.

“Third brother, there’s no need to trouble you. I’ll go by myself.”

Qiao Ze glanced at Qiao Yue’s Tomahawk and said, “Hurry up and get in the car. I’ll send you there so we can give you a grand entrance.”

Qiao Yue’s heart said there was no need, but in the face of Qiao Ze’s good intentions, she got into his car.

“We are leaving now.”

Just as Qiao Ze said that, the butler picked up a call.

No one knew if the butler pressed the speaker button by mistake, but just a second before Qiao Ze stepped on the gas, a howl came from the phone, “Uncle Fu, has the little devil left yet? We’re still waiting to interview him!”

The three of them looked at each other. Without waiting for the butler to speak, Qiao Ze stepped on the accelerator and the car sped away, leaving the butler to chase after the third young master.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

In the speeding sports car, Qiao Yue casually asked, “Are you planning to skip work?”

Qiao Ze tutted, “Interviews are so annoying. They always ask all sorts of random questions.”

Qiao Yue nodded in understanding. He’s a celebrity after all! People would always be concerned about his personal life.

Just as Qiao Yue was about to end the conversation, Qiao Ze spoke again, “Also, how can an interview be more important than my brother? Isn’t that right, Xiao Yue?”

Qiao Yue looked at Qiao Ze who was focusing on the road ahead. He had a smile on his face, dreamy eyes that shine, an elegantly straight nose and thin pink lips. Qiao Yue couldn’t help but wonder how a man could be so handsome.

“Third brother, you’re very popular with the opposite sex, right? So flirtatious!” Qiao Yue teased casually.

Qiao Ze pretended to sigh as he said, “Sigh, being too charming is also a problem. In fact, your third brother is not only popular with the opposite sex, but also with the same sex. I’ll take you out to have fun some time.”

Thanks to Qiao Ze’s expensive sports car, all the other cars avoided him along the way and Qiao Yue arrived at school on time.

The moment this flashy red sports car stopped at the entrance of Harvey Academy, it attracted a crowd of onlookers.

Other than its eye-catching color, the brand and model of the car were also eye-catching. It was a limited edition Koenigsegg F70, with only 50 units made.

Before Qiao Yue could get out of the car, she heard a shout outside, “Ah! Isn’t this Qiao Ze’s car?”

After the girl shouted, Qiao Ze’s car was instantly surrounded by people.

Who was Qiao Ze? He was known as the nation’s husband. Every TV drama he acted in was a hit. In addition to his super good looks and family background, he could also act, sing, and fight. It was rumored that he almost never used a stunt substitute when he acted.

How could such a person, who was close to perfection on screen, not be crazily pursued by people?

“Qiao Ze! I’m your fan! Can you please give me an autograph!”

“Qiao Ze! Look at me! I’ve been chasing you for a long time! I’ve watched every one of your TV series!”

“Aaaah! How can Qiao Ze be so handsome!”

Qiao Yue’s face darkened with every scream outside the window. She stared at Qiao Ze with her dark eyes.

Qiao Ze was a little embarrassed from being stared at. He didn’t expect to cause such a big commotion before he even got out of the car.

“What do we do?” Qiao Yue asked coldly.

“Um, how about I call my manager first?”

Qiao Yue didn’t answer, but her eyes were telling Qiao Ze to call quickly.

Qiao Ze briefly explained the situation to his manager. Even from a distance, Qiao Yue could hear his manager’s mocking laughter.

Not long after, the manager arrived with bodyguards and rescued Qiao Ze and Qiao Yue from the siege.

Qiao Yue got out of the car with a dark face and headed to school without a word. Qiao Ze shouted after her, “Xiao Yue, slow down. I’ll walk you in.”

“No, thanks.”

Qiao Yue threw these two words expressionlessly at Qiao Ze. As soon as she finished, she turned around slightly and saw Qiao Ze being dragged mercilessly into the car by his manager.
