Chapter 20 What to do when you come back

"Is this the city of Los Angeles?" Xia Kexin was full of curiosity when she walked out of the airport and looked at the blue sky above her head.

Lu Ziqiu asked her to book a plane ticket, but she booked two on her own. No matter how Lu Ziqiu persuaded her, she wanted to come together.

Asked her why, she said that seeing Zhao Fenghui made her feel annoyed, so she just took this opportunity to come out to relax.

Lu Ziqiu really had nothing to do with her, so he could only let her go.

Xia Kexin couldn't help being a little surprised when she didn't get a reply from Lu Ziqiu for a long time. She turned her head and found that Lu Ziqiu was frowning and looking at the two people walking in front of her. She had a vague guess in her heart, "General Manager, do you know them?"

Lu Ziqiu nodded and said, "Old friend."

Although he was very calm, Xia Kexin couldn't hide the faint hint of loneliness in his eyes, "Couldn't that woman be your former fiancée?"

Lu Ziqiu sighed, "It's her, but it's all over."

Xia Kexin was about to speak, but seeing the two people looking over in astonishment, she stopped and did not speak again.

Those two didn't shy away from it, they walked up to Lu Ziqiu hand in hand.

Yan Ruxue looked at Xia Kexin expressionlessly, the corner of Xia Kexin's mouth twitched slightly, and he looked at her generously, his eyes met, there was a faint spark.

Gu Yuhang laughed and said, "Lu Ziqiu, I heard that you left Luo City, why are you back?"

Lu Ziqiu smiled slightly, "Come back and walk around."

"Really? Could it be that you still can't forget?"

Lu Ziqiu looked up at the distant sky, "There are indeed some people who can't forget."

The corner of Gu Yuhang's mouth twitched, "Some people should forget it as soon as possible."

Lu Ziqiu looked back at him, "At least you, I won't forget."

"Hehe, that would be a great honor."

Lu Ziqiu ignored him, looked at Yan Ruxue directly for the first time, with mixed emotions in his heart, and asked lightly, "Are you okay?"

Yan Ruxue's face sank like water, "Thank you for your concern, I am doing well now."

"That's good, where's your father?"

"He's not bad, but he's just a little busy."

"That's right, the draft is about to start, so it's normal to be busy."

Yan Ruxue was noncommittal, "What are you doing back here?"

He couldn't say the words to deceive her, but he couldn't tell her the real purpose of his trip, so he didn't answer at all.

Yan Ruxue snorted lightly.

Lu Ziqiu ignored her, "Kexin, let's go."

Xia Kexin nodded, and glanced at Yan Ruxue again, "Your vision is not very good."

Yan Ruxue frowned slightly, "What do you mean?"

However, Xia Kexin had already walked out, leaving only her back.

Gu Yuhang tightened her hand and shook his head at her.

Yan Ruxue let out a long breath, "I'm fine."

Gu Yuhang smiled slightly, looked up at Lu Ziqiu who was leaving, and shouted: "I advise you to leave early. Once the media finds out, I'm afraid you won't be very happy."

"Thank you." Lu Ziqiu replied without looking back.

"You've lost your reputation, yet you dare to push me like this." Seeing his attitude, Yan Ruxue was filled with displeasure.

Gu Yuhang laughed and said, "He's long gone, why are you angry at such a cripple?"

Yan Ruxue took a deep breath, and sighed: "You have to be more confident, if this trip doesn't succeed, it may be difficult for father to hand over the position of general manager to you."

"Don't worry, I'm sure to take them down."

"As long as you are sure, let's go."

Gu Yuhang nodded with a smile, took her hand and walked into the airport.

After walking away, Xia Kexin suddenly muttered angrily: "Why did you fall in love with that woman in the first place? She has an average figure, and her appearance is only average."

Lu Ziqiu froze for a moment, "If you want a figure and appearance, wouldn't it be better for me to find a model or a female star?"

"Are you that kind of person?"

"Yeah, am I that kind of person?"

Xia Kexin was choked instead, "I only now realize how stupid my question was."

"Okay, don't make wild guesses, my friend is here to pick us up."

Xia Kexin was stunned for a moment, then looked up, and saw a handsome blond man waving his hand, "Who is he? He looks very handsome."

"He is my best friend——Wei Sen. He used to play basketball, but because of his poor talent, he was eventually undrafted. Later, he was disheartened because he couldn't make a name for himself in the second-tier league. Retired, now runs a bar, and the business is pretty good."

"It turns out that he is Wei Sen. No wonder he can catch such a beautiful model."

"Are you excited?"

Xia Kexin rolled his eyes at him angrily, "Do I look like such a superficial woman?"

"That's not certain, handsome guys are always easier to attract girls' attention."

"I'm too lazy to care about you."

The two were joking while walking, Wei Sen greeted him with a laugh, and gave Lu Ziqiu a big hug, "Good boy, you didn't tell me when you left." He is not as tall as Lu Ziqiu, and he needs to hug Lu Ziqiu Standing on tiptoe, it seems a bit nondescript.

Lu Ziqiu was in a good mood, "Didn't I come back?"

"If you don't call me when you come back, I'll have to go to Yancheng to find you."

Lu Ziqiu laughed and pushed him away, "Come on, let me introduce you, this is my new team assistant, Xia Kexin."

"Hi, my name is Weison, and I'm the bastard's best brother." He stretched out his hand graciously.

"Hello, I heard the general manager mentioned you." Xia Kexin shook hands with him.

Wei Sen said with a smile: "This bastard doesn't say bad things about me, does he?"

Xia Kexin pursed her lips and shook her head with a smile.

Wei Sen grinned and said: "It doesn't matter if we have, we grew up together, we lived in the same dormitory until the university, the relationship is too good to talk about, but then this kid is very busy, I want to find a time to get together It's all difficult."

Lu Ziqiu interrupted him with a smile, "Okay, stop talking nonsense, and lend me your car for a few days."

Wei Sen glared, "Where are you going, can I take you there?"

"No, Annie is pregnant now, how can I let you go out with me?"

"That's right." Wesen threw the car keys directly to him, "Remember to come back to me when you're done. Let's have a good get together. Annie is always thinking about you."

Lu Ziqiu nodded and said, "No problem, please greet Annie for me first."

"Okay, let's go, I'll take you to the parking lot to pick up the car first."

The two followed him to the parking lot. On the way, Wei Sen asked Xia Kexin, "Miss Xia, this kid is a workaholic, can you bear it?"

Xia Kexin pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Working with him is actually very easy. He arranges everything properly, and I don't need to worry at all."

Wei Sen gave Lu Ziqiu an angry look, "It's still the same, you can stand up to everything by yourself, and don't worry about other people's feelings."

Lu Ziqiu touched his nose in embarrassment, "Okay, can I be more careful in the future?"

Wesson sighed, "You've been saying this for 30 years."

Xia Kexin heard his tone a bit sour, for some reason, she suddenly felt weird, but looking at his expression, she couldn't see anything unusual.

"Maybe I'm overthinking. With the relationship between them for so many years, there should be no jealousy."
