Chapter 933: Chapter 933: She Might Have Taken a Fancy to Pei Yao

What did he see!

Li Hanzhou was actually hugging Qiao Yun’s waist, their posture extremely intimate.

Pei Ya: “…”

Anxious, should he walk away or stay to be the third wheel?

Li Hanzhou let go of Qiao Yun very calmly, hooked his finger under her palm, and asked Pei Ya seriously: “What do you need?”

“Ah… Nothing, I just saw the boss had gone out for quite a while without returning, so I came out to check.” Pei Ya explained, then shuddered all over.

Pah!

Why the hell was he explaining himself to Li Hanzhou.

After being let go by Li Hanzhou, Qiao Yun’s flushed face finally cooled down, and then she seriously said, “It’s not good to do this in public.”

Li Hanzhou’s voice was lazy, “Because it’s you, I couldn’t help myself.”

Pei Ya: ?? Do I look dead to you?

Qiao Yun ignored Li Hanzhou, and gestured to Pei Ya: “Let’s go back to the private room.”

She came here to eat, but after all this time, she hadn’t even started her meal.

Pei Ya made an acknowledging sound, seeing Li Hanzhou following them, he couldn’t help but express his dissatisfaction: “What are you doing?”

Li Hanzhou stated matter-of-factly: “Of course, I’m going with my girlfriend.”

Pei Ya reminded him: “Aren’t you going to take care of your own matters?”

Li Hanzhou said indifferently: “I want to leave early, who dares to say anything.”

Pei Ya: Damn, that actually makes sense, I can’t even argue!

Pei Ya’s objection was in vain, in the end, he joined what was supposed to be Qiao Yun and Professor’s world for two, actually, now it turned into Qiao Yun and Li Hanzhou’s world for two, with him as the third wheel.

Qiao Yun was being fed by Li Hanzhou when her phone rang.

She took a sip of water to soothe her dry throat before picking up her phone, it was from Su Qingqing.

Since her last visit to Yuncheng for two months, her relationship with Su Qingqing had greatly improved.

Even though they talked about some inconsequential things, Qiao Yun liked listening to Su Qingqing share her daily life.

[Cousin, we’ve arrived in Shangjing already, we’ll visit your place when we find some time.]

Su Qingqing and Su Qingyan had come to Shangjing and were staying at a hotel, coincidentally the same one as Jiang Jing.

If Su Qingqing hadn’t mentioned it, Qiao Yun wouldn’t have given a second thought about Jiang Jing, thus she was slow to react.

[Don’t be upset.]

[I’m not upset. I can’t be bothered with her, but she told me that she is joining Future Alliance’s team to participate in the exchange competition. You’re going to be rivals now.]

Qiao Yun was unconcerned, [Don’t mind her.]

[Exactly, no need to care about her. She’s not even close to being your rival, I don’t know what got into her head, insisting on seeing you as competition.]

Su Qingqing couldn’t understand Jiang Jing’s mindset, wouldn’t it be better to be grounded?

Why try to climb a peak that is out of reach? And for that, even recognizing Fu Yun as her godmother.

Qiao Yun probably understood why Jiang Jing kept fixating on her.

In Jiang Jing’s eyes, she was the Heart Demon.

Without surpassing herself even once, Jiang Jing could probably forget about any accomplishments in her life.

Qiao Yun didn’t mind being Jiang Jing’s Heart Demon, provided that Jiang Jing didn’t resort to any disgraceful tactics.

But honestly, she kind of admired Jiang Jing’s perseverance.

Qiao Yun was a bit distracted, and Li Hanzhou had personally scooped up a spoonful of soup and brought it to her lips, which she accepted without paying attention and let herself be fed.

This almost made Pei Ya’s eyeballs fall out; if he ever dared to feed Professor Qiao, he would surely be annihilated by her standards of decency.

That Li Hanzhou could be Professor Qiao’s boyfriend was not without reason, just for the courage alone to feed Professor Qiao, he deserved admiration.

Qiao Yun, belatedly aware, shot a glance at Li Hanzhou’s hand, which was itching to move again.

She turned her face away, refusing to be fed like a child.

Li Hanzhou put down the spoon with a sense of regret.

At this moment, another message from Su Qingqing came in.

[But the good news is, I think Jiang Jing has given up on my brother. She didn’t even glance at him when we met just now, which is really great.]

Su Qingqing was genuinely happy about this; her brother deserved better girls.

[She might have set her sights on a new target, someone you know.]

Qiao Yun stared at this message, revealing a trace of confusion, [Who is it?]

[I think it’s Pei Yao. She seems to have taken a liking to Pei Yao. But it makes sense, Pei Yao’s such an outstanding young man, and also the chairman of a big corporation, handsome too. Jiang Jing is currently intent on climbing up the ladder, setting her sights on Pei Yao isn’t unreasonable.]

Qiao Yun was puzzled.

How did Jiang Jing come to fancy Pei Yao?

She lifted her eyelids to look at Pei Yao, slightly squinting.

Still such a simpleton.

Pei Yao: ?

Su Qingqing’s next line unraveled Qiao Yun’s confusion.

[She was overtly and covertly inquiring about Pei Yao when I ran into her. It’s either she has a scheme or she wants to hook up with him.]

What Su Qingqing didn’t mention was, Jiang Jing didn’t just ask about Pei Yao; she also probed into the relationship between Pei Yao and Qiao Yun.

Jiang Jing asked very subtly, something most people wouldn’t notice.

But Su Qingqing had her guard up against Jiang Jing a hundredfold, even the most casual comment could raise her alarm.

She was telling Qiao Yun this to have Qiao Yun ask Pei Yao about his view on Jiang Jing.

In case she really got hooked by Jiang Jing.

Whatever the reason, it was definitely not a good thing.

Qiao Yun put down her phone and directly asked Pei Yao, “Remember Jiang Jing?”

Pei Yao nodded, “I remember.”

Anyone who appeared beside Professor Qiao, he remembered them all.

Qiao Yun bluntly said, “She seems to have taken a liking to you.”

“Pfft!” Pei Yao almost spit his soup out onto Qiao Yun.

Qiao Yun moved away from Pei Yao with disgust. Li Hanzhou, with his quick reflexes, pulled Qiao Yun to his side and then teasingly congratulated Pei Yao: “Finally, someone has taken a liking to you.”

Pei Yao’s temples bulged with veins: “There are plenty of people who fancy me.”

Li Hanzhou said indifferently, “Is that so.”

Pei Yao: Your tone could be more obnoxious.

Pei Yao decided to ignore Li Hanzhou. He turned to Qiao Yun, quite frustrated, “Boss, seriously, why would you say she took a fancy to me?”

Qiao Yun replied, “She was asking Su Qingqing about you.”

Pei Yao’s brow furrowed in an instant.

Why did she inquire about him?

Shouldn’t it be Professor Qiao that she was interested in?

Years of intuition told Pei Yao there was something off about Jiang Jing, but then he remembered Jiang Jing was also at the tea lounge. She knew about his relationship with the Huo Family. Could it be that her inquiry was meant to appease Fu Yun?

Pei Yao said indifferently, “If she has any ulterior motives, she will find a way to approach me someday. All I have to do is wait.”

“Alright then.” Qiao Yun didn’t say much more; Pei Yao didn’t need her to worry after all.

Li Hanzhou asked with a smirk, “What if she really does like you?”

Pei Yao rolled his eyes, “Not a chance, I can’t handle that.”

Due to this little interlude, Pei Yao actually put Jiang Jing on his mental list of people to watch.
