BXBX NOVEL Chapter 126 - 126: Is He Even a Man?
“Does Qi Shenbai know that you’re back?” Xu Jiaojiao asked.
“I just got off the plane an hour and a half ago. I plan to give him a small surprise.” Qi Yunduo gave Xu Jiaojiao a playful look. “Sister-in-law, you definitely won’t tell anyone about this, right?”
Xu Jiaojiao’s face suddenly turned red because the girl in front of her called her sister-in-law. “Just call me Jiaojiao. I’m about the same age as you.”
She was 20 years old this year, and Qi Yunduo was two years younger than her. “How can 1 do that? If 1 call you that, Big Brother will definitely break my beautiful slender legs.” Qi Yunduo kept calling her “sister-in-law” in a voice that was even sweeter than honey. Xu Jiaojiao was embarrassed by her praise. “Little Sister-in-law, you’re too pretty and cute. It’s a pity that I’m not a man. If 1 were a man, hmph, my Big Brother would have another love rival!”
Xu Jiaojiao felt that her face was burning hot, and it was still heating up.
“Sister-in-law, don’t take those two hags’ words to heart. I’ll get Big Brother to fire them later.” Qi Yunduo looked demure, but Qi Shenbai had pampered her since she was young. She was also outgoing by nature and never beat around the bush.
Xu Jiaojiao disagreed with her plan. “They were just chatting. We shouldn’t fire employees just because they gossip in private.”
“This was more than just simple gossip. They were slandering other employees.” Qi Yunduo snorted. “That kind of talk is harmful. If an employee who always thinks badly of others stays in the company, it will only make the atmosphere at the workplace worse. Besides, shouldn’t my brother give his wife more money? Is he even a man?”
Xu Jiaojiao was speechless.”…”
Was she really his biological sister??
Qi Yunxiao wanted to surprise Qi Shenbai, so she did not return to the banquet hall with Xu Jiaojiao. Instead, she found a place to hide.
When Xu Jiaojiao returned to the hall where the banquet was being held, Qi Shenbai was wearing a black suit and stepping on the temporary stage with a microphone in his hand. When he opened his mouth, his voice filled the entire space. Everyone present could hear it. His low and hoarse voice was unbelievably charming. Couple that with his extraordinarily handsome facial features, and there would always be some female employees who could not help but cheer excitedly.
When Xu Jiaojiao saw him, she felt a little happy and proud at first. The next second, though, she felt a twinge of jealousy.
Sigh, having a boyfriend who was too handsome had its own problems. She had more love rivals than stars in the sky.
Tiantian stood next to Xu Jiaojiao. When she noticed that Xu Jiaojiao seemed a little unhappy, she immediately comforted her. “Sure, Mr. Qi is handsome and rich, and almost every girl will fall at his feet— But still, don’t worry. The female colleagues in the company definitely won’t snatch him away from you.” “Huh?” Xu Jiaojiao turned her head and looked at Tiantian in confusion. “Why do you say that?”
Tiantian smiled. “Because our CEO has never paid attention to us, of course. He usually doesn’t even bother to look at us!”
When Xu Jiaojiao thought of Qi Shenbai’s general dislike of women, the feeling of jealousy immediately disappeared without a trace. She even felt a little proud, and the corners of her mouth curled up.
At this time, Qi Shenbai’s speech on stage had just ended. Everyone in the audience gave him a warm round of applause. Qi Shenbai’s eyes swept across the audience and locked onto Xu Jiaojiao.
Xu Jiaojiao did not know why he was looking at her like that, so she smiled.
Qi Shenbai’s originally deep eyes lit up at this moment, filled with joy. He handed the microphone to the host and left the stage.
“Wooow… President Qi was smiling at you!” Tiantian held her thumping heart and felt that her little heart was about to explode. Ahh, this really was her OTP!
Xu Jiaojiao immediately stopped smiling and said solemnly, “Today is the annual party. He wasn’t just smiling at me.”
“Of course he was!” Tiantian did not buy that at all. “I’ve worked in this company for several years, but I’ve never seen Mr. Qi smile like that before. He was definitely smiling at you just now! That’s how much he loves you!”
Xu Jiaojiao bit her lip.
Wasn’t that a little too exaggerated?
Qi Shenbai was invited to take a seat at the main table in the front row. The host began his usual greetings, and the annual party officially began.
Xu Jiaojiao’s eyes darted around, but she did not see Xu Zhengyang. She asked Tiantian in confusion, “Why don’t I see my brother anywhere?”
“Every department has to produce a performance this year. I heard that everyone in their technical department is participating in this show. Your brother is probably preparing for his performance backstage..”
