Chapter 163: Stepmother's son (16)
World Six. Stepmother's son (16)
Ever since Xue Xue said "like" to Jiang Pingyang, Xue Xue has been running to the laboratory managed by Jiang Pingyang almost whenever she had free time.
Of course, when she was sure that the man was not busy.
At the beginning, Xue Xue clearly felt Jiang Pingyang's discomfort, but it became a habit, and after a while, the two became more and more cordial with each other, even if they didn't say anything, they didn't feel awkward.
After going back and forth, Xue Xue and the researchers in the laboratory also became familiar with each other.
Everyone likes Xue Xue very much.
Who wouldn't like a pretty girl who comes to visit with a smile on her face and a delicious snack or an energy drink? Xue Xue is very well-educated and has a good temper, which makes people feel like they're in a spring breeze when they got along. Although she is talkative, she has a good sense of propriety. Chatting with her is always fun and relaxed.
Of course, there are exceptions.
Although everyone didn't know Xue Xue's identity, they all knew that Xue Xue came for Jiang Pingyang.
Because Jiang Pingyang has a lot of authority here, everyone naturally wouldn't gossip in front of him, but just turned to Xue Xue to joke.
Xue Xue is also generous.
"I'm really chasing after Brother Yang."
When she admitted that, everyone was more riotous. Usually, everyone in the laboratory would have a quiet meal after lunch, but after Xue Xue arrived, the atmosphere changed.
"Xue Xue, how did you and consultant Jiang meet?"
"How did we know each other? Hmm" Because she didn't get Jiang Pingyang's consent, Xue Xue naturally wouldn't reveal the relationship between the two because of their parents' remarriage, so she only said in a mysterious manner. "It's a long story."
"Hey" "Tell me" "That's right, very curious ah."
"Brother Jiang is not with her yet." Just as everyone gathered around Xue Xue and tried to get more words out of her mouth, a girl with glasses and beautiful eyes spoke. "What are you curious about?"
The originally fiery atmosphere cooled down.
Everyone glanced at each other and looked at each other in dismay.
"What? Did I say something wrong?" Because of everyone's silence, the young girl who spoke out was obviously a little embarrassed. "Do you really think you are Big Brother Jiang's girlfriend? It's disgusting to regard the laboratory as a place to chase men."
This was a bit too much.
Everyone heard it clearly.
Xue Xue didn't want to bother with the other party at first, but obviously some people don't know how to write the word polite without being given a lesson.
"Mei Mei, what you said is too much." The older, shorter-haired woman among the researchers frowned disapprovingly. "Regardless of whether the person was invited in by consultant Jiang, Xue Xue did not enter the work area and did not disturb us, but only stayed in the lounge, you should not behave like this."
The short-haired woman has a seniority in the team, and her attitude of taking matters into account quickly drew in agreement.
"That's right, Meimei, don't think too much."
"No, the matter of Consultant Jiang and Xue Xue is their own business, Meimei, why is your mouth so poisonous? Do you like Consultant Jiang?"
"Hey, don't say a word."
"What? What did I say wrong?"
As the person being talked about, The rim of Xin Mei's eyes were already red.
Her face was ugly.
Xue Xue was still thinking about whether to speak, but she didn't expect that the little girl words were inappropriate, it would easily become like falling into a trap.
After thinking about it, she didn't think it was necessary.
"It's okay." Xue Xue said after clearing her throat. "She may have misunderstood me a bit, butwith your auspicious words, I believe I and brother Pingyang will certainly be together soon."
"If the time comes, I will invite you to dinner together, okay"
In a few words, the embarrassment was resolved.
In fact, if Xue Xue's words were said in a different style, it would be a little tricky, but because she always had a smile on her face, and her tone had a sense of sarcasm, it naturally diluted the smell of gunpowder inside.
However, it was not the case when it fell to Xin Mei's ears, she just felt that she was being laughed at.
Rather isolated and helpless.
Especially when Xue Xue gave her a meaningful look, and then turned to discuss other topics with the people around her as if nothing had happened.
She never knew that there were women in this world who could be so annoying.
When Xue Xue went to Jiang Pingyang's office to look for him, she happened to see Xin Mei come out.
Her eyes were a little red. When she saw Xue Xue, she stared at her viciously, but Xue Xue didn't care. She just smiled good naturedly, and then knocked on the door that was just closed in the eyes of the other party as if she was about to eat people.
The door of Jiang Pingyang's office.
"Who is it?"
"It's me, Xue Xue."
"Come in."
The man's voice was almost seamlessly connected to Xue Xue's voice.
Since Xin Mei was still standing in the same place, she naturally heard it clearly.
Her hands tightened sharply.
After pushing the door open, Xue Xue looked back at her, and mouthed something to Xin Mei.
In the next second, Xin Mei, who got Xue Xue's meaning, changed her face, and was about to rush up. At this moment, Xue Xue had already dodged into the office, and at the same time closed the door and locked it.
