Chapter 1245 - 744: Old Acquaintance
Upon hearing that Zhao Qianqian agreed to attend the dinner, Mr. Li rubbed his hands excitedly: "Qianqian, just call me Shaogang, we are friends, calling me Mr. Li feels distant."
Zhao Qianqian glanced at Li Shaogang with a hint of a smile: "Mr. Li, be honest with us, did you join the troupe to assist Secretary Qi with his work or is there another reason?"
Her beauty was like jade, her breath like orchid, and Li Shaogang felt himself melt. His heart’s thoughts blurted out: "I heard two new beauties joined the troupe, even more stunning than the top stars in the province, so I wanted to come and see."
Realizing he might have been too blunt, he laughed sheepishly and continued, "At first, I really just wanted to see, but after meeting Qianqian in person, my thoughts changed. Qianqian, I want my parents to go to your home to propose marriage!"
The show happened to end, and Luo Ye couldn’t hold back, so he went up to the stage with a bright smile: "Now, let’s invite performing artist Mr. Le Shengtao to entertain everyone with a stand-up comedy routine..."
Her radiant charm captured not only the troupe members’ eyes but also Li Shaogang’s, who had just been declaring his intention to propose to the Zhao Family.
Zhao Qianqian’s lips curled upwards involuntarily, as she gently poked Li Shaogang: "How about changing the proposal target to the Luo Family?"
"Huh?" Li Shaogang shivered, snapped back to reality and shook his head repeatedly, "No, no, no, I like Qianqian. As for Luo Ye, that violent individual, I really don’t like her." As he spoke, he shivered again, evidently frightened by an earlier encounter with Luo Ye, leaving him with a mental shadow.
Just as Luo Ye was coming off the stage, she heard Li Shaogang’s words clearly, and raised her eyebrows: "Am I the violent one? Why don’t you tell Qianqian the reason for the violence?"
"I...I..." Li Shaogang smiled ingratiatingly, "Luoluo, I like Qianqian, so please don’t mind, okay?"
At heart, Li Shaogang was just a spoiled child, not really bad, but incredibly disorganized in his actions. In his world, everything revolves around him.
If such a person had good friends to guide him, he’d walk the right path, and perhaps grow into a responsible individual in the future. Conversely, if guided by those with ill intent, though he wouldn’t become a great villain, he’d surely become a bottomless, annoying playboy.
She wasn’t a savior, but encountering an opportunity to lend a hand, it wouldn’t be impossible. Adding one average person to the world is far better than adding one bad person, so thinking this, Luo Ye smiled faintly: "All right, no offense taken, let’s invite a few more friends tonight, the more the merrier."
"Great, no problem, I’ll call my buddies right away and have them come over, but..." Li Shaogang looked at Zhao Qianqian, "Qianqian, no matter who comes, you mustn’t fall for them, you have to promise me."
"Okay." Zhao Qianqian nodded seriously, "I promise, I won’t fall for anyone."
"I’ll make the call then." Li Shaogang didn’t catch Zhao Qianqian’s subtle hint and started dialing happily.
"You’re interested in Qianqian, I’m still single, so your friends shouldn’t all be your lackeys." Luo Ye added lazily.
"Rest assured, I’ve got that covered. I have a best buddy who’s in the import-export trade, with annual sales over a billion. An absolute eligible bachelor, if it weren’t for Luoluo, I wouldn’t dare let him come..." Glancing sheepishly at Zhao Qianqian, "Qianqian, it’s not that I don’t trust you, but since we just met and you’re so beautiful, gentle, and understanding, I can’t help but feel a bit insecure."
Zhao Qianqian flashed him a gentle smile: "Shaogang, if you’re genuinely concerned for both of us, don’t always stick around here, this might make the troupe’s members resent us."
The single word "Shaogang" left Li Shaogang immediately dizzy and disoriented, though he was no stranger to the world, as he himself said, he came to the troupe with the mindset of seeking romance.
However, after meeting Zhao Qianqian, he genuinely fell for her: skin like porcelain, eyes like painted pictures, waist like willow, graceful posture..., this level of beauty, he was witnessing for the first time.
Moreover, he was very aware that such caliber of beauty is a rare find. Though his father was the Secretary of the Municipal Committee, he heard that this Miss Zhao came from the provincial capital. Therefore, whether he measures up or not, he couldn’t say for sure.
