pick a peach essence

The next day, Meng Yuqian still went out early in the morning, and she promised Tao Tao that she would be back before class in the afternoon.

Tao Tao smiled, and then told her not to be late.

As usual this morning, Tao Tao was going to find Xiao Qiong to handle the work of the debate competition, so she and Meng Yuqian parted ways after having breakfast.

She walked to Xiao Qiong's office door, raised her hand and knocked on the door lightly a few times.

However, unexpectedly, Xiao Qiong did not seem to be in the office.

"what's the situation?"

Tao Tao was very puzzled, according to Xiao Qiong's personality he would not be late, Tao Tao raised his hand and looked at the watch on his wrist.

It was found that it was past nine o'clock, so it stands to reason that he had clocked in for work by this time.

When Tao Tao was standing at the door, not knowing what to do, her mobile phone in her bag rang suddenly.

It was Xiao Qiong calling.

Tao Tao picked it up, and then learned that Xiao Qiong was on his way to school.

"Mr. Xiao, are you late?"

"I have a job."

Tao Tao smacked her lips, expressing that she was worthy of being Xiao Qiong, even lying was serious.

"Come out and pick me up."

"Eh?"

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up."

Why is this dog man so fierce?

Tao Tao sighed, then obediently ran to the school gate to wait for him.

Because I can't say it, I can't fight it, so I can only accept my fate.

Only this time, before she could wait for Xiao Qiong, another person came.

Tao Tao looked at the man standing in front of her with a complicated expression.

"Little Peach."

Jiang Jinchen looked at the girl in front of him with a smile, and then approached her step by step.

"How did you come?"

"Come and see you."

Jiang Jinchen looked at her aggrieved and continued.

"I haven't responded to your messages these days, I'm worried about you."

Tao Tao pursed her lips, not knowing what to say.

In fact, Jiang Jinchen also knew why Tao Tao was angry with him.

"that……"

Jiang Jinchen looked at Tao Tao tentatively.

"Didn't you say, don't lie to me anymore?"

After struggling for a long time, Tao Tao finally spoke out what was in her heart.

She saw Jiang Jinchen paused slightly.

"I……"

Tao Tao looked at Jiang Jinchen's expression, then raised the corners of her mouth and smiled.

"That's right, you really didn't lie to me last time."

It's just that you didn't tell me the truth.

In fact, although Tao Tao was very excited and caring at the time, and also a little...angry, she later felt that she really cared too much.

She was ashamed of what she thought at the time, she felt really stupid and just...

It's just that what she really cared about was that Jiang Jinchen didn't explain to her, didn't tell her the truth.

Tao Tao feels that a person will inevitably make some mistakes in his life, and these are unavoidable.

However, if a person refuses to tell the truth, how can he be trusted by those who value him?
"I'm sorry, this matter... I really can't tell you now."

However, Jiang Jinchen still planned to hide it from her.

"Is there anything that can't be said?"

Tao Tao was really puzzled, she had already said that she believed in the two of them, but what was Jiang Jinchen hesitating about?
"never mind……"

Tao Tao sighed softly.

"It's not like that, Tao Tao, you need to..."

"So you are here?"

Just when Jiang Jinchen was about to explain to Tao Tao in a panic, another man appeared from behind him.

Jiang Jinchen frowned, then turned to look at the indifferent man.

Under the refraction of the sun, the man's gold-rimmed mirror frame gave off a slightly dazzling light.

Tao Tao helplessly supported her forehead.

Oh my god, what happened just now hasn't been explained clearly yet, but at this time these two people actually met again.

"Oh, Mr. Jiang is here too."

Xiao Qiong looked Jiang Jinchen up and down, then walked between the two of them, holding a big box in his hand.

However, Jiang Jinchen didn't pay attention to him, he just kept staring at Tao Tao closely.

So Xiao Qiong's gaze wandered between the two of them.

"Mr. Jiang, is there anything else?"

Xiao Qiong looked at Tao Tao who was at a loss, and continued to speak.

"Something happened."

Jiang Jinchen frowned and glanced at him, then said these two words coldly from his mouth.

"What a coincidence, I have something to do with her."

Xiao Qiong raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, then weighed the big box in his hand.

"I'm sorry Mr. Jiang, I'll take her away first."

While talking, Xiao Qiong motioned Tao Tao to follow him.

Tao Tao raised her head and gave Jiang Jinchen a guilty look, then pursed her lips and turned around.

"and many more."

Jiang Jinchen stopped her from behind.

Tao Tao's heart suddenly froze.

She felt very uncomfortable, this time she actually followed another man away in front of Jiang Jinchen.

And that man was Jiang Jinchen who was worried about his own safety and didn't let her have any contact with him.

However, Jiang Jinchen just looked at Tao Tao's back with deep eyes, feeling that she had lost some weight after not seeing her for a few days.

"Eat well and take care of yourself."

Jiang Jinchen sighed softly.

Then she felt Tao Tao's slightly trembling body.

"wait for me."

After Jiang Jinchen finished speaking, he glanced at the girl again, then turned around and left without looking back.

Because he was afraid that he would look at her one more time, so he couldn't help but grab her to his side, but this would only make her more bored with him.

I'm sorry, Tao Tao, I have some things recently that I have to keep from you.

But you have to believe me, you must believe me.

Tao Tao walked on the road as if she had lost her soul.

"Hey."

Xiao Qiong frowned, then turned to look at the girl.

"Are you stupid?"

"You are stupid!"

Only then did Tao Tao come back to her senses, and glared at the man.

"Tsk tsk tsk, since you're not stupid, then you should be normal."

Xiao Qiong clicked his tongue twice, then threw the big cardboard box to Tao Tao while speaking.

Tao Tao took it quickly, but it was not as heavy as expected.

She glanced at the contents curiously, and found that they were all colored cardboard and some glue.

"Are you... doing handwork?"

Tao Tao once suspected that Xiao Qiong was crazy.

But what she didn't expect was that Xiao Qiong nodded seriously.

Tao Tao felt that her three views had been hit hard.

"So that's why you were late this morning?"

"I'm sorry, but the headmaster took the initiative to grant me leave."

Xiao Qiong cast a disdainful glance at the girl beside her.

just speechless...

Tao Tao sighed, then weighed the box, complaining in her heart that Xiao Qiong, a doggy man, let the girl carry such a big box.

"Is it sinking?"

However, Xiao Qiong seemed to be able to read minds. When Tao Tao was complaining about him in his heart, he turned around and looked at her decisively.

Tao Tao was slightly embarrassed.

Then she smiled coyly.

"Not sinking not sinking."

Xiao Qiong nodded expressionlessly, then walked quickly towards the office.

"I'll go open the door first."

Tao Tao was behind him, watching his back that was getting further and further away from her.

what?Is there a combination lock on your door?How long does it take to open a door?

But at this moment, Tao Tao seemed to hear him say something.

"I forgot to put on sunscreen when I went out today."

Depend on.

In the end, Tao Tao held a big box by herself, and under the scorching sun, she climbed to Xiao Qiong's office exhausted.

Xiao Qiong seemed to have heard the movement, and then opened the door.

Tao Tao thought that this man had a bit of conscience.

"You can hear your breath through the whole building."

Xiao Qiong frowned, then took the box and put it on the sofa.

This time Tao Tao no longer wants to believe in the fallacy that Xiao Qiong is actually good in nature.

"Give."

Xiao Qiong poured her a glass of water, Tao Tao took it unceremoniously and drank it in big gulps.

However, Xiao Qiong gave her a very disgusted look, and made a sound of tsk tsk.

Tao Tao didn't pay attention to this dog man, after she rested for a while, she was ordered by Xiao Qiong to start working again.

"I must have owed you in my previous life."

Tao Tao muttered softly while taking out the things in the box.

"What did you say?"

Xiao Qiong didn't know when he quietly walked behind Tao Tao, and Tao Tao was shocked.

"No, nothing."

She swallowed, then turned around and solemnly held up colorful cards.

"So... what are you going to do?"

Xiao Qiong glanced at the paper jams, then nodded in satisfaction.

"The quality is not bad."

Tao Tao really didn't understand how he could tell the quality of these cardboards was good without even touching them?

"You cut them into little cards and write the title of the contest on them."

Xiao Qiong said to Tao Tao while clearing the table.

"What are you kidding?"

Tao Tao feels that her IQ has been insulted.

"You write the topic, do you need to write it on cardboard?"

However, Xiao Qiong looked at her with the expression of looking at a fool.

"The contestants draw lots by themselves, and those who draw a color form a group, and then their questions correspond to the questions on the card of that color."

Tao Tao was almost fainted by Xiao Qiong.

"As for the trouble?"

"I'm happy."

Tao Tao felt that Xiao Qiong was just looking for trouble.

"Go get it."

Xiao Qiong took the cards from her hand and put them on the table, while she picked up a book and read it leisurely.

Tao Tao gritted her teeth and glared at him.

"Oh, by the way, remember to make a cover and keep a little bit of mystery."

Return the cover?
Tao Tao pursed her lips tightly, resisting the urge to knock Xiao Qiong's spirit cover off.

But in the end Tao Tao resigned to her fate and sat on the chair to do something she had never done since she was ten years old.

She was thinking about life while cutting the cardboard, and she was thinking about when did she become what she is now.

Yet she came to a conclusion.

Maybe it's fate...

Tao Tao wasted all morning on this.

When she finally handed over the finished product to Xiao Qiong, she saw Xiao Qiong nodded in satisfaction.

"Not bad."

It's not bad, wasting my brain cells all morning.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Xiao Qiong got up and went around the table and patted her on the shoulder.

"Then our preparations are done."

Tao Tao finally breathed a sigh of relief, it's great, at least she doesn't have to come here to suffer anymore before the game.

"but……"

"I still have to work hard for you these few days."

Xiao Qiong raised her eyebrows, looking at Tao Tao's unlovable face instantly.

"Let's discuss and discuss other judge candidates."

As soon as Xiao Qiong said this, Tao Tao almost died on the spot.

That's right, she actually forgot that there are four judges required for this competition, and besides Xiao Qiong and Tao Tao who were personally named by the principal, they also need to select two other qualified judges by themselves.

Tao Tao sighed in despair, it seemed that she still couldn't escape Xiao Qiong's clutches.

"What's your expression like?"

Xiao Qiong glanced at Tao Tao's wrinkled face.

"I'm happy."

Tao Tao raised the corners of her mouth and smiled at Xiao Qiong after hearing this, but Xiao Qiong only felt that her expression was even more sad than crying.
