Chapter 163: Chapter 163 The Character Is Questionable

Luo Qiao said, "Sister Qu, I’ve finished my business, and I really want to thank you for today."

After saying that, she handed over the item in her hand, "This is a little something from me, it’s not anything expensive, so I hope you won’t look down on it, Sister Qu."

Qu Lili said, "This makes me feel so embarrassed."

Luo Qiao smiled, "You accompanied me on a trip this morning, and we had to take the bus and it delayed your time—I really should thank you, Sister Qu, or I wouldn’t feel right about it."

Since Qu Lili heard her talk like this, she accepted the gift.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Luo Qiao finally said goodbye and left.

When Qu Lili was going upstairs, she happened to run into Ding Xiangdong coming downstairs. Since there had been unpleasantness with Jiang Shan before, Qu Lili usually helped anyone who had been bullied by Jiang Shan.

Ding Xiangdong had just seen Luo Qiao’s departing figure and noticed Qu Lili coming up with something in her hand, "Sister Qu, was that Luo Qiao just now?"

Qu Lili replied, "Yes, she just left. She came to thank me because the house deal was settled."

Ding Xiangdong immediately followed suit, chasing after her. Qu Lili had already heard from Luo Qiao in the morning that she was referred to Ding Xiangdong by an acquaintance, who was Ding Xiangdong’s comrade-in-arms.

Ah, this Ding Xiangdong, Jiang Shan will eventually ruin his reputation too, and surely the counterpart will have a grudge against him after today’s incident.

Luo Qiao left the Housing Management Bureau very quickly because she had caught a glimpse of Ding Xiangdong coming down the stairs when she turned around, and for some reason, she didn’t want to interact with him anymore.

For a man to let his fiancée cause a ruckus at work and not even apologize to the victim, Luo Qiao decided it was best to steer clear of such a person.

Moreover, it was getting late, and she had not expected to have such smooth luck in buying the house today thanks to the unexpected help of Qu Lili. Thinking that the people from Ji City Middle School might come to visit in the next few days, she did not want to waste any more time in the city.

She thought that once she got the notice, she would come back, get someone to fix up the courtyard, and start commuting when school opened.

When Luo Qiao took the shuttle bus back to the commune, she saw Lu Yichen standing not too far away.

When Lu Yichen saw the shuttle had stopped, he focused on the disembarking passengers. Seeing Luo Qiao get off, he pushed his bicycle up the road leading to the village and waited for her.

Luo Qiao approached, "Brother Lu, you can’t be here waiting for me, can you?"

Lu Yichen glanced at Luo Qiao, "Don’t flatter yourself. I just came down because I saw the shuttle arriving from afar, to wait for you for a bit."

Luo Qiao secretly pulled a face behind his back, but Lu Yichen turned around just in time to catch her in the act.

Lu Yichen was amused by her little antic, but held back his laughter before asking, "I heard from Xiang Dong that you’ve bought the house?"

Luo Qiao responded with a question of her own, "What exactly did he say to you?"

As soon as Lu Yichen heard Luo Qiao’s response, he knew there must be something going on, "He said everything was handled; the house was bought and all the paperwork was finished."

Luo Qiao scoffed sarcastically, "Is this person really your comrade-in-arms?" thinking that Ding Xiangdong must have character issues.

Seeing Luo Qiao’s displeased expression, Lu Yichen explained, "We were in the same unit and met a few times. I ran into him in Ji City before; he told me he’d been working in the Housing Management Bureau after his discharge.

You mentioned wanting to buy a house, so I thought of him. Did something happen?"

Not wanting to talk behind someone’s back, Luo Qiao said, "It’s nothing big; I did buy the house but didn’t trouble him, so I certainly don’t acknowledge owing him any favor."

There were still things she felt she needed to bring up, just to avoid being deceived and foolishly thanking someone afterward.
