Chapter 14 The Flower of Wealth
Chapter 14 The Flower of Wealth
Putting down her phone, Xu Qingman asked with a smile, "Was it a man or a woman?"
Su Jie blushed slightly. "A woman."
"When she gets here, I'll ride in her car, and you can drive my car back."
Xu Qingman said, "I'll call you again when I get back from my business trip to Shanghai."
Su Jie asked, "When are you coming back?"
Xu Qingman thought for a moment, "About a week."
Su Jie nodded. "Okay!"
……
After waiting for about twenty minutes, a white BMW 7 Series slowly pulled up.
"Little brother, my friend is here."
Xu Qingman unbuckled her seatbelt. "I'm leaving now."
Su Jie suddenly said, "Sis, I want to hug you one more time."
"One more hug?"
Xu Qingman smiled, her eyes revealing a cunning glint in her eyes. "What do you want to do?"
Su Jie couldn't stand that gaze. "I just wanted to hug you."
Xu Qingman nodded and stretched out her arms. "Then let's hug!"
Su Jie gently hugged the woman and whispered in her ear.
"sister!"
There are so many beautiful girls in this world, you don't need to be too beautiful, you just need to be happy!
As long as you're happy?
Xu Qingman smiled even more broadly, "You should be happy too!"
Without being polite, Su Jie took advantage of the moment when he let go and kissed the woman on the cheek.
"mua——"
Xu Qingman's body trembled as if she had been electrocuted.
Then, he froze completely.
"you……"
Covering the spot where she had been kissed, the woman's eyes held a complex expression. "You actually took advantage of my sister?"
Su Jie smiled frankly and said, "Sister, you must be happy!"
"You're not allowed to kiss me again next time."
Xu Qingman rolled her eyes. "If you kiss me again, I'll get angry."
Just as Su Jie was about to speak, there was a knock on the car door next to him.
"Knock knock knock—"
"Xu Qingman, what are you doing?"
"Didn't the car break down?"
Xu Qingman laughed, opened the car door, and jumped out. "He's my brother. I'm lending him the car for a few days."
Looking at the man in the driver's seat, who didn't seem very old, Chen Fengjiao wanted to take a few more glances, but her best friend forcibly pulled her away.
"Let's go, weren't we going to have a drink?"
"I'll go drinking with you!"
As she spoke, Xu Qingman waved to Su Jie again, "Little brother, drive carefully on your way back, we'll be leaving now."
Su Jie waved his hand, "Sis, you guys take it easy too, be careful on the road."
Xu Qingman nodded and pulled her best friend into the white BMW 7 Series.
After fastening her seatbelt, Chen Fengjiao was somewhat reluctant to leave.
"Xu Qingman, you slut, you've been secretly keeping a man?"
"So young, must be a college student?"
"What exactly happened? Tell me the truth!"
Gently smoothing her wind-blown hair, Xu Qingman rested one hand on the car window. "You drive first, and I'll tell you slowly."
With a tap of the accelerator, Chen Fengjiao said excitedly, "Tell me quickly, I want to know who he is right now!"
Xu Qingman didn't hide anything and told the whole story of how she met Su Jie.
After hearing this, Chen Fengjiao was somewhat incredulous. "You mean, you only met yesterday, and today you're already having dinner together, and then you're giving him your Porsche Panamera?"
Xu Qingman took out the box of chocolates, her smile unchanged. "What's wrong?"
"I don't know if the world has gone mad, or you have?"
Chen Fengjiao shook her head speechlessly, "You're usually quite smart, aren't you?"
Xu Qingman laughed and said, "I'm not crazy, and the world isn't crazy either."
"That Su Jie, he's so young and he's already going astray, trying to take shortcuts."
Chen Fengjiao gritted her teeth and said, "If I can win you over with sweet words, I won't have to worry for the rest of my life."
Xu Qingman shook her head. "He's different!"
"Is he different?"
Chen Fengjiao retorted, "How is it different? Does it have three arms, or three eyes?"
Thinking of the man's aura and his multifaceted eyes, Xu Qingman smiled and shook her head. "It's just that feeling. You wouldn't understand even if I told you."
"So many men used to pursue you, but you ignored them all. Now you've set your sights on a girl born in the 2000s."
Chen Fengjiao continued her rant, "Besides being young, what else does he have?"
"Tender".
Xu Qingman asked with a smile, "Isn't that enough?"
Chen Fengjiao blinked. "You two are having an affair?"
"What do you take me for?"
Xu Qingman rolled her eyes. "There's no possibility between us."
"call--"
Chen Fengjiao laughed and said, "It seems you still have some sense."
"well--"
Xu Qingman sighed and gently brushed her fingers across the box of chocolates.
"I wish I were a few years younger!"
"What a pity!"
She was indeed attracted to Su Jie.
With her somewhat childlike face and youthful, energetic body, she couldn't help but want to immerse herself in it, to enjoy the pleasure that made her soul tremble.
But reason told her that the two of them being together would not end well.
The final result will only be that she is covered in wounds and ends up in a miserable state.
Despite her rationality, she still harbored a deep sense of resentment.
Why do two people destined to have no future meet?
Gently clench your fist and slowly apply force.
She wanted to keep Su Jie under her control, watching this young man who gave her a different feeling slowly grow and mature, and then get married and have children.
Sister, I'll take sister!
……
Watching the white BMW 7 Series drive away, Su Jie's hand on the Porsche Panamera's steering wheel remained still.
He was unaware of his true feelings.
He clearly wanted to be in a relationship with a woman, but inexplicably ended up as siblings.
A man's intuition told him that Xu Qingman was attracted to him.
Otherwise, Xu Qingman wouldn't have replied to his messages, much less accepted his invitation to dinner despite her busy schedule.
This woman is definitely hiding something.
Recalling their conversation, Su Jie couldn't help but have a guess.
Could it be like in those melodramatic TV dramas, where someone gets some kind of terminal illness?
The more Su Jie thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
Xu Qingman looks very healthy. Why would she meet up with friends for drinks so late?
If he really had a terminal illness, he wouldn't be traveling around so much, let alone going on a business trip to Shanghai.
Shaking his head, Su Jie couldn't quite understand.
If I can't figure it out, then I'll stop thinking about it.
He is an only child.
Having an older sister like that isn't so bad.
He could sense that Xu Qingman genuinely cared about him and wanted to be good to him.
The way the two interacted was a bit surreal, considering they had only known each other for a little over a day.
They would buy him clothes, give him a Porsche Panamera, and even try to introduce him to girlfriends.
However, Su Jie quickly figured it out.
These things that seem very precious are actually quite ordinary to Xu Qingman.
Different levels of status, different identities, and different amounts of wealth.
Therefore, one's perspective on the essence of things will be different.
Xu Qingman is a truly wealthy woman, with assets worth at least several hundred million.
To her, something worth millions is nothing special.
For her, it's like a few hundred dollars.
Some influential figures online, whether reading books or watching live streams, are...
If viewers enjoy watching it, there are quite a few who donate hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars in tips.
Thinking about it this way, Su Jie no longer felt that these high-end luxury brands were anything special.
He has money and can afford it.
He just happened to meet a kind older sister who took care of everything for him!
Driving back to the hotel, Su Jie's driving skills were mediocre, and he only managed to park in a space with the help of a security guard.
However, the envious look from the security guard still gave him a small thrill.
