Chapter 987: Chapter 1047
The dishes were served quickly, and then everyone began to eat. Jiang Meng and Zhou Zhou kept telling Lu Mochen to take care of Yu CaiCai. Lu Mochen agreed good-naturedly, nodding all the while, and thoughtfully ensuring that Yu CaiCai was okay with her meal, which moved Yu CaiCai greatly.
"By the way, A Mo, did you know Qiqi back in high school?" Yu CaiCai asked.
"Yes, I knew her in high school. At that time, Classmate Qiao was quite impressive; she was even the top scorer in the college entrance exam and became everyone’s idol at our school," Lu Mochen replied with a smile.
Qiao Qiqi was somewhat surprised; it seemed Lu Mochen had a knack for keeping his cool, as he hadn’t badmouthed her in front of Cai Cai.
"Qiqi, you know A Mo too, right?" Yu CaiCai was actually quite nervous inside, worrying there might have been some kind of relationship between Qiao Qiqi and Lu Mochen.
After all, the handsome guy and the beautiful girl, coincidentally meeting; anyone would wonder.
"The Qiao Family and the Lu Family have connections, so we know each other, but my relationship with Classmate Lu is just average," Qiao Qiqi replied blandly.
"Ah? Why is that? Since there are connections, shouldn’t you be childhood sweethearts?" Yu CaiCai was like a cat with its heart being scratched, desperate for an answer; otherwise, she couldn’t relax.
"This is a long story. I only returned to Manchester in my third year of high school to live with my parents and brother. Before that, I’d been in the countryside, so I’m not familiar with Classmate Lu," Qiao Qiqi said coolly, not bothering to elaborate, as it was truly unnecessary.
Upon hearing her words, Lu Mochen felt his heart ache profoundly; was she really so eager to distance herself from him?
"Cai Cai, today is about enjoying a meal, why are you persistently questioning Qiqi? Qiqi has someone now, and if you keep asking, be careful that Gu Shili doesn’t come looking for you," Jiang Meng understood what Yu CaiCai meant, feeling both annoyed and speechless.
Qiqi had Gu Shili, and though Lu Mochen was also quite good-looking, he paled in comparison to Gu Shili; they simply weren’t in the same league.
Yu CaiCai might see Lu Mochen as a treasure, yet Qiqi wouldn’t necessarily want to take even a glance at him.
During the meal, Lu Mochen would occasionally glance at Qiao Qiqi, but Qiao Qiqi treated him like air, enjoying the delicious food; despite Lu Mochen being annoying, the food was still quite good.
During the meal, Qiao Qiqi went to the restroom.
After all, Lu Mochen found Yu CaiCai as a girlfriend to target her, so she should give him a chance to see what he really wanted.
Sure enough, when Qiao Qiqi came out of the restroom, she encountered Lu Mochen; he was waiting for her.
"Did you want something from me?" Qiao Qiqi asked him, expressionless.
"Yes, I need your help," Lu Mochen nodded.
"If you need help, why go to such lengths?" Qiao Qiqi’s voice grew colder.
Lu Mochen’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed, his handsome brows forming a frown as he said, "I have no other choice. You should know about my health condition. I know you have excellent medical skills; you’ve cured a man poisoned by his wife. You must have a way to save me, right?"
Though Lu Mochen still appeared to be good-natured, only he knew how terrible his situation was. If things continued this way, he felt he might not survive another three years.
Currently, he was losing hair significantly, wearing a wig, and had issues in that aspect, knowing it was a sign of his worsening kidneys.
He didn’t want to die, not at all!
But he also knew Qiao Qiqi despised him, making it very difficult to get her to treat him.
