Chapter 88: Chapter 88
Seeing Rong Qingqing still smiling and shaking her head.
Zhao Junxi thought for a moment and added, "I’ll give you double the interest."
Under the table, Shen Qiao kicked Rong Qingqing’s foot and winked at her.
Only then did Rong Qingqing respond with a "deal."
Zhao Junxi quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, it’s better to lose face in front of this woman than in front of the waiter.
"Wait here for me; I’ll go pay and be right back." Rong Qingqing turned to Shen Qiao and said before heading to the counter with Zhao Junxi.
Even though Zhao Junxi was alone, he still managed to rack up the price for both Rong Qingqing and Shen Qiao.
Rong Qingqing paid for both tables together, and Zhao Junxi took his receipt from Rong Qingqing’s hand, said thank you, and then asked the waiter for a pen.
"Write down your WeChat ID, I’ll transfer the money to you later," Zhao Junxi said as he handed over the receipt and pen.
Rong Qingqing looked at Zhao Junxi with a half-smile, "I’ll give you my phone number; it’s my Alipay account, you can transfer directly there."
Zhao Junxi’s expression froze.
"I’m afraid if we add each other on WeChat, the next time we coincidentally meet, you’ll accuse me of stalking you."
Rong Qingqing picked up the pen, wrote down her phone number, and then turned around, not saying another word to Zhao Junxi.
Watching Rong Qingqing walk away so briskly, Zhao Junxi felt a bit unamused and hummed before turning around and leaving.
Rong Qingqing received Zhao Junxi’s transfer half an hour after dragging Shen Qiao, who still wanted to linger in the restaurant, back to the room.
The phone alert came, and Rong Qingqing glanced at it, exited the message directly, and continued playing games on her phone, occasionally lifting her eyelids to urge Shen Qiao not to get distracted by his homework.
By 10:30, Shen Qiao was sitting there, half-asleep.
Rong Qingqing put away her phone and started chatting with the System.
"Does the ’Good Morning’ and ’Good Night’ task have to be face-to-face?" Rong Qingqing asked the System, "If I call Shen Jue and get his response, does it count as completing the task?"
The System was silent for a few seconds, then replied, "Yes."
Rong Qingqing raised her eyebrows in surprise, actually finding this unexpectedly lenient, "I have another question."
Rong Qingqing sat up from the sofa, "Why are all my tasks revolving around Shen Jue? Does that mean I have to always revolve around him to stay alive? Will there be tasks unrelated to him in the future?"
The System fell into another long silence, and then it just disappeared.
Rong Qingqing shouted at the System several times, but it didn’t respond, making her almost explode in anger.
Silence means consent, so does this mean that to survive in the future, she really has to keep revolving around Shen Jue?
"Damn System! Damn System! Are you against me, or do you have a grudge against Shen Jue?"
Rong Qingqing cursed angrily in her heart.
"You’re worse than Shen Jue."
The System remained as quiet as a chicken.
Feeling deflated, Rong Qingqing got up, took out her phone, and found Shen Jue’s number in the contact book.
Due to the relationship between the two families, the original owner had everyone’s contact information on her phone.
But some contact information was really just there out of politeness; the original owner had never called Shen Jue.
"I’m going to make a phone call in the room; you finish your homework!" Rong Qingqing ruffled Shen Qiao’s hair, instructing, "Don’t sleep without finishing your homework."
Shen Qiao pouted, "I really want to go home~ At home, no one cares whether I do my homework or not."
Rong Qingqing didn’t hear this because she was already in the room, calling Shen Jue.
Listening to the cold voice on the other end, asking who it was, Rong Qingqing was taken aback for a second.
"You didn’t save my number?"
Did she not even deserve a polite entry in the other party’s contact book?
"..." Only then did Shen Jue recognize Rong Qingqing’s voice.
She guessed right; he really hadn’t saved her number.
Because before the engagement change, Rong Qingqing was irrelevant to him.
It wasn’t just Rong Qingqing; Shen Jue hadn’t even saved Rong Jiaojiao’s number.
The two Rong sisters were of the same status to Shen Jue, even though one was supposedly his fiancée.
