Chapter 697: Chapter 698: I Brought Lunch to See You
Gu Qiangwei fell into deep thought, not answering Qin Bo but suddenly looking up, “Help me take out two insulated boxes.”
Qin Bo was startled for a moment, not sure what she intended to do, but still turned around and swiftly took out two insulated boxes from the cabinet.
Then Gu Qiangwei filled two lunch boxes full with untouched food.
Qin Bo stood aside, watching her as if she was planning to take the food away or perhaps give it to someone?
Gu Qiangwei lifted her head and gave Qin Bo a sweet smile, “I’m going to eat with Qin Sijue.”
Understanding her intention, Qin Bo smiled knowingly.
Soon after packing the meal, Gu Qiangwei was ready to leave, making sure not to forget giving Qin Si a call before stepping out the door.
Because it was already 12:23 PM, she didn’t know whether Qin Si had already started lunch.
She should have called him right before.
At this time, Qin Si had just finished a meeting at 12:20 PM and was taking the elevator down to the first floor, planning to eat at a restaurant across from Dijue Group.
As soon as he stepped out of the elevator, his phone rang, so he stopped in his tracks and pulled out his phone.
Seeing the familiar caller ID, he slightly pursed his lips, and his magnetically deep voice resonated, “Have you eaten?”
He spoke while heading towards the revolving door.
“Not yet, what about you?” Gu Qiangwei said, also carrying two lunches as she walked down the marble steps.
“I was just about to go.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Qiangwei quickly spoke up, “Don’t go!”
Qin Si paused in his step, “What’s up?”
“I’ve brought lunch, to find you.”
This caught Qin Si by surprise, but he also looked forward to having lunch with her.
“I’ll ask Luo Chen to pick you up.”
“No need, I’m already on my way!”
By this time, Gu Qiangwei had already settled into her white Maserati and was driving out towards the yard’s gate.
“Alright, be careful on the road.”
After hanging up the phone, Qin Si put his phone away and immediately turned around, heading back into the building.
“Make way, make way!”
He had just turned around when suddenly someone bumped into him!
Fortunately, he was well-built and steady on his feet, which caused the person who had run into him to rebound and fall to the ground.
Carrying more than a dozen hot pot noodle dishes and beverages, Ling Xi was a bit flustered and anxious. Just as she reached the group’s entrance, she bumped squarely into someone and fell to the ground on her backside!
She let out a low gasp and for a moment didn’t quite grasp how she had fallen.
On the other hand, Qin Si faced a coffee stain and juice on his chest and his expression darkened to the extreme, with a clear storm brewing between his brows.
Ling Xi rubbed her sore buttocks, still not realizing who stood before her, and noticed the messy spill of hot pot noodles and various drinks on the ground…
Instantly, her face changed drastically!
Ling Xi got up and quickly crawled towards the spilled noodles, her face full of regret.
Qin Si slightly lifted his gaze and noticed Ling Xi only when his frown deepened a little.
Then, like the prelude to a tempest, his voice bellowed, “What are you doing!?”
His voice was cold and heavy, obviously laced with anger and displeasure.
Ling Xi looked up, and when she saw Qin Si, her expression became somewhat shocked.
Because since their last separation, she hadn’t seen him at all.
“You’ve knocked my noodles everywhere!”
She hadn’t received her paycheck yet; these noodles were bought with the last of her living expenses, and her colleagues hadn’t paid her for them yet.
With this fall, hundreds of dollars were lost—without the noodles, they definitely wouldn’t pay her!
