Madam's Identities Shocks the Entire City Again novel Chapter 3099

3099 Where’s Lu Zhi? He’s Inside, Right?

“Uh.”

Halfway through his meal, he put down his knife and fork and elegantly wiped his mouth with a tissue. Then, he stared at Jian Jin seriously. “What do you think of my performance this afternoon?”

Jian Jin scratched her nose and coughed dryly. Instead of answering him directly, she asked. “Boss, don’t tell me you want to take the long route to achieve your aim?”

Unexpectedly, Lu Zhi did not deny it. Instead, he was nonchalant. “Can’t I?”

“Ahem!” Jian Jin didn’t expect to be right. “Not really. It’s not that you can’t… But Boss, you gave Father Qiao tea leaves this afternoon… four cans.

Lu Zhi looked at her in confusion. He frowned impatiently. “What’s wrong with four cans? Isn’t the more the better?”

He had wanted to give more, but four cans were already the best he could do since he was restraining himself. Jian Jin did not know what to tell him. “Well, why don’t you think about your gift? Four cans of tea leaves. Doesn’t it read like ‘dead green tea”?”

She had wanted to tell him to keep it to two cans. Firstly, good things came in pairs. Secondly, it was neither too much nor too little. Tather Qiao wouldn’t feel too burdened either.

However, Lu Zhi insisted on taking two more. In the end, it became this awkward number.

“I heard that the number 4 is a taboo for the people of Country Z. It’s not very auspicious…”

Lu Zhi tilted his head. He finally realized that he had not made the best choice. He pursed his lips and narrowed his eyes, and his tone was not good. “Why didn’t you say so carlier?”

Jian Jin was speechless.

She was about to explain to him that she did mention it when her cell phone rang.

Jian Jin took it out and looked down. Seeing Qiao Nian’s name on the caller ID, her expression changed slightly and she quickly hung up.

Lu Zhi noticed her subtle reaction. He raised his chin slightly and asked, “Who is it?”

Jian Jin looked back. “Uh, a friend…”

Lu Zhi stared at her tensely as if he could see through her lies. He unhurriedly asked, “Why aren’t you picking up?”

Jian Jin’s scalp went numb.
