Li Zhengyi said impatiently, "Come and get whatever you left later!"
"No, that thing is very important!" Fang Qing insisted. Li Zhengyi had no choice but to let her go downstairs.
Fang Qing ran quickly to Lu Qi's shop. Once again, she put on her haughty and ferocious look. She shouted at Lu Qi at the top of her voice, "I've returned all the genuine items to you. Give me back the fake one!"
Fang Qing had another plan in mind. Anyway, the fake one looked so similar, and it had been repaired by Xu Qingqing. She could sell it at a high price later.
Lu Qi looked at Fang Qing indifferently and took out the fragments that Xu Qingqing had given him. "Here you are."
When Fang Qing saw the dripping fragments, she got angry instantly. She slapped the table hard and roared, "This isn't mine!"
Wasn't hers already repaired?
Lu Qi said impatiently, "Nonsense! These are exactly the same fragments you brought here. Not a single one is missing!"
"If you're just looking for trouble, we can go to the monitoring room again!"
Only then did Fang Qing realize that the repaired vase had been broken by Xu Qingqing again.
Fang Qing angrily pointed at Lu Qi and roared, "You're so stingy! It's just a broken vase. Why did you break it after repairing it!"
"I don't even look down on your lousy repair skills!"
"If you don't like it, isn't it broken for you?" Lu Qi tilted his chin, looking disdainful.
"Whatever!" Fang Qing grabbed the fragments and ran away.
"Sorry, I won't see you off." Lu Qi shouted at Fang Qing's back.
He swore that this was definitely the rudest and most impolite way he had ever treated a woman. It was all Fang Qing's fault for making him angry and ruining his gentlemanly image!
Xu Qingqing worked overtime to repair Wang Jingyun's vase. When she left the studio, it was already pitch black outside, and it was already 11 o'clock.
Xu Qingqing rubbed her sore neck and saw Lu Qi sleeping on the table. She didn't expect Lu Qi to still be waiting for her.
"Lu Qi, why haven't you left?"
Xu Qingqing stepped forward to wake Lu Qi up. Lu Qi, who was still sleepy, rubbed his eyes and smiled bitterly. "Can I leave?"
"Why can't you leave?" Xu Qingqing asked curiously.
"Look..." Lu Qi pointed outside the shop. Xu Qingqing followed his gaze and saw a black Ferrari parked outside. The person sitting in the driver's seat was Lu Chuanbai.
"Why is Lu Chuanbai here?"
"To pester me, of course!" Lu Qi stood up painfully and stretched.
He originally wanted to leave, but when Lu Chuanbai saw that Xu Qingqing hadn't got off work, he thought it was Lu Qi who was forcing her to work overtime. So he parked his car right in front of the shop entrance, blocking it tightly.
Lu Qi couldn't get out, so he finally fell asleep on the table out of exhaustion.
Lu Qi wailed, "It's so inhumane! Inhumane!"
"Sorry! Sorry!" Xu Qingqing listened to Lu Qi venting his grievances and apologized to him on Lu Chuanbai's behalf.
"I'll ask him to move the car right away!"
Xu Qingqing stepped forward and knocked on the window of the Ferrari. "Lu Chuanbai! Move the car so that Lu Qi can get off work."
When Lu Chuanbai saw Xu Qingqing coming out, he looked up and smiled, then drove the car forward to make way for the door.
Lu Qi cursed under his breath, calling Lu Chuanbai a womanizer. He yawned.
Xu Qingqing apologized again embarrassedly. "Sorry, Lu Qi. You should go home quickly. I'll take care of the finishing work in the shop."
"Forget it. Driving while tired is very dangerous. I'll just stay in the shop tonight." Lu Qi pinched his tired eyebrows. "There's a bed in my office. You two should go quickly. I'll close the door."
"Okay."
After the shop door was closed, Lu Chuanbai in the car tilted his chin at Xu Qingqing, signaling her to get in the car.
After Xu Qingqing got in the car and fastened her seat belt, she slapped Lu Chuanbai. "What are you doing? You've made it impossible for Lu Qi to go home!"
Lu Chuanbai rubbed his faintly aching shoulder. This little girl really had a lot of strength!
"I thought he was forcing you to work overtime, and you didn't even go when he called you." Lu Chuanbai looked like he was protecting Xu Qingqing.
"He just didn't want to disturb me, and I volunteered to work overtime." Xu Qingqing stared at Lu Chuanbai with wide eyes. "Do you know you're wrong?"
Lu Chuanbai looked at Xu Qingqing's cute little womanly appearance. According to his knowledge, only a girlfriend would criticize her boyfriend like this.
"I know I'm wrong." Lu Chuanbai followed Xu Qingqing's words and reached out to touch Xu Qingqing's fluffy head, as if stroking a kitten.
Xu Qingqing turned her head to avoid it and asked unnaturally, "Why did you come? What time did you arrive?"
"I arrived at seven o'clock."
"You've been waiting until now?" Xu Qingqing was increasingly amazed at Lu Chuanbai's patience. He queued up to buy desserts for her, and now he could wait for so long just to pick her up from work.
Was this still the decisive and time - precious Lu Chuanbai?
"Don't do this again in the future." Xu Qingqing pinched the seat belt and reminded Lu Chuanbai.
"Okay, I know." Lu Chuanbai nodded very obediently. He took out a small tin box from the front console and handed it to Xu Qingqing.
"Here, this is for you."
"What is this?"
Xu Qingqing took it and opened it. Inside was a light - green ointment. It smelled of a faint camellia fragrance, fresh and elegant, very nice.
"This is a scar removal ointment. Didn't you hurt your neck? It's such a noticeable place. You can't leave a scar." There was a hint of pride in Lu Chuanbai's tone.
"I specifically asked an old miracle doctor to prepare it. Its scar - removing effect is amazing."
"You still remember." Xu Qingqing unconsciously touched the white lace ribbon on her neck.
In order not to let others notice the wound, she specially wore a high - necked white lace dress. The white lace blended perfectly with the gauze on her neck, making it hard to notice.
"It will definitely be able to remove all the scars on your neck, so you can wear clothes that expose your neck."
Lu Chuanbai looked at Xu Qingqing's neck with a smile. It was slender, beautiful, and fragile. He could hold it with one hand.
If he could leave red marks on it, it would definitely look beautiful...
"Thank you." Xu Qingqing felt warm in her heart. She put the scar ointment in her bag. "Let's go."
Lu Chuanbai started the car and took Xu Qingqing home.
At this time, there were hardly any cars or pedestrians on the road. Looking at the twinkling neon lights on both sides of the road, Xu Qingqing opened the car window a little to let the wind blow in.
The weather was gradually getting cold. The cold wind was really cold on her body, but it made her feel refreshed.
Facing such a cold wind, Xu Qingqing both loved and hated it.
Xu Qingqing was wearing a dress today. She might not have felt the cold in the room, but when the wind blew, her body shivered. But she didn't want to close the car window.
In her entanglement, Lu Chuanbai reached out and picked up the suit jacket hanging on the backrest and stuffed it into Xu Qingqing's arms.
"Put it on. Don't catch a cold."
"Thank you." Xu Qingqing turned her head and looked at Lu Chuanbai's perfect side profile, his high nose bridge, and his red lips.
Lu Chuanbai's jacket covered Xu Qingqing's body like a big blanket, carrying Lu Chuanbai's body temperature and fragrance, blocking the cold wind blowing in from outside the window.
