CEO Wants To Marry Me After Divorce
Chapter 142. Up to no good

Chapter 142: 142. Up to no good

After some thought, he dismissed that possibility.

There were never any shortage of women around Lu Moqing, and there was no lack of women more beautiful than Qiao Xu, but he never cared about or even noticed those women.

Qiao Xu...was different after all.

Qiao Xu saw him staring at her without speaking, the meaningful and unclear look in his eyes made her feel uneasy for some reason, afraid that he already knew about Qiao Yi’s situation.

While feeling anxious, she heard Lu Moqing chuckle softly, saying:

"From the beginning, the real boss behind Zhuo Rui wasn’t my grandfather, but my mother. As for why my mother doesn’t agree to cooperate with Lu’s, it’s naturally because she thinks her son-in-law doesn’t treat her daughter well."

As he spoke, he paused, his eyes full of laughter and warm as they stopped on Qiao Xu’s face.

Listening to him continuously addressing "grandfather" and "mother" as if they were still a close husband and wife, Qiao Xu couldn’t help but frown.

Although they have not formally divorced, their relationship was almost the same as being divorced, right?

Why bother with such intimacy.

Qiao Xu didn’t continue his statement, but Lu Moqing wasn’t in a hurry either. He smiled and said, "And you didn’t want to cooperate with me... is it also because of that reason?"

Suddenly he stood up, bent down near Qiao Xu who was sitting across the table. His tall figure, in an instant, created an oppressive atmosphere, enveloping Qiao Xu in it.

Qiao Xu frowned, feeling uneasy due to the unexpected pressure.

"You said you don’t care about me, right?"

He leaned close to her ear and chuckled softly.

Feeling the warm breath lingering around her ear, Qiao Xu scrunched her eyebrows and shifted her body back, creating some distance between her and Lu Moqing. She slightly raised her eyelids to look at him.

"I don’t want to cooperate because of President Lu, but not because I care, but because I’m disgusted."

Lu Moqing sat back down on the sofa, raising the corner of his eyes without showing any emotion.

"Disgusted?"

He repeated the word in a deep voice, then laughed, "If you don’t care, how can you be disgusted without any reason?"

Qiao Xu couldn’t help but roll her eyes internally, thinking his narcissistic problem was getting worse and worse.

"President Lu’s logic is strange. If I’m disgusted with bugs in the toilet pit, does that mean I care about those bugs?"

Lu Moqing: "..."

Lu Moqing was momentarily speechless due to Qiao Xu’s disgusting analogy, his eyebrows knitted in discomfort, "Qiao Xu, can you give a different example?"

"Of course, if I’m disgusted by excrement in the toilet pit, does that mean I want to eat shit?"

Lu Moqing: "..."

He really wanted to kill her! What to do!

Not wanting to argue with Qiao Xu about this matter, he put away his smile on his face and said seriously, "Let’s not discuss such disgusting things, let’s talk about proper matters."

Qiao Xu didn’t want to talk about such disgusting things either, so naturally she wouldn’t stick to that previous topic. She just glanced at him lazily without saying anything.

Then Lu Moqing said, "You know the current situation of Zhuo Rui very well. Zhuo Rui has good research and technology, but they lack funds and production capacity can’t keep up. Lu’s investment is a good thing for you, so why don’t you accept it?"

Qiao Xu casually glanced at him and didn’t beat around the bush, "Because I don’t trust President Lu."

Lu Moqing raised his eyebrows but didn’t speak. He just waited for her to continue.

"Such a big crocodile like President Lu suddenly became a little koi fish, which makes me feel uneasy."

Lu Moqing looked at her quietly, and after a while, he started to laugh.
