Chapter 22 Inflated Vanity
The advantage of gossip is that it makes people who are originally loners even more respectful of her.There is still half a month before the deadline for the Daqin Cup Modeling Contest, and most of Xiaobei's energy is devoted to the production of models.

On Tuesday afternoon, because he didn't have to go to Guo Zilin's house to do housework or play tennis with her, there was only one practical class, so Xiao Bei rushed to the market to buy materials after class.

When passing by the mobile phone shop, Xiaobei hesitated for a moment, but went in to check the mobile phone.Just because when he came out of Qin Xiao's house yesterday, he was already a dog, and for good reason, he asked Xiaobei to turn on the phone at any time.Xiaobei glanced at it. Smartphones, even domestic ones, cost more than 6 yuan, but ordinary 2G mobile phones are very cheap, about 200 yuan is enough.Without thinking about it, she asked for a white 2G mobile phone and added a card.

Holding the phone and hesitating for a while, he still sent a text message to the number he remembered, asking about the situation of the little golden retriever.

Qin Xiao was presiding over a dull meeting. Seeing him sitting in the chair, Hu Feng glanced at him with his mobile phone in his hand, put it down quickly, as if he was unsure, immediately picked up the mobile phone again, and took another look, a rare hint of warmth.

The discussions at the next meeting went unexpectedly smoothly. The old renovation project has officially started, the promotion of the old renovation in the early stage of Daqin has started, and the registration of intention has also been carried out in the old community, but very few people came to sign the letter of intent.

"The intention registration of all residents in the jurisdiction must be completed by the end of this month. In this way, the public relations department will use part of the cost to mobilize the enthusiasm of the residents to participate. The implementation plan will be reported to Assistant Hu tomorrow afternoon at the latest. The design department needs to come up with the design this week. The final draft. Others, let’s see if you have any feedback.”

Everyone knows that he does things vigorously and resolutely, but he cuts through the mess so quickly and neatly.Everyone knew that Qin was always busy and wanted to end the morning meeting quickly.

When Hu Feng carried a stack of documents to Qin Xiao's office, he unexpectedly sent a text message.

"President Qin, are you texting Miss Guo?"

"Hu Feng, I think you've been too free recently. The Northwest Branch is preparing for a new project, and I think it's quite appropriate for you to go there."

"Not suitable, not suitable. You know that my girlfriend just came back from abroad this week and is planning to settle down in Qingcheng."

Qin Xiao locked the screen of the phone, and warned him not to cause trouble: "What's the matter?"

"There is time in the evening, see if you want to have dinner with President Liu of Qingcheng Development Bank."

His slender fingers tapped on the table: "There's no rush, we'll talk about it another day."

Hu Feng returned to his profession and withdrew.In the corridor, I met Shasha, the secretary who was delivering coffee to Qin Xiao. Hu Feng hooked his fingers and asked Sasha to come over: "With your women's keen intuition, do you feel that President Qin has changed?"

"Hu Zhu, what change are you referring to?"

"Of course it's a change in emotion."

"Don't you know this best?"

Hu Feng was hurt, waved his hand, and drove away the smirking Sasha.Could it be that he is overthinking?

Qin Xiao looked at the document for a while, but couldn't stop picking up his phone to look at it. Except for the text message greeting the golden retriever dog, there was no message from that damn girl.

"It's not good"

He felt that she would definitely call to ask questions like this, but he, Qin, really didn't want to rely on a dog to attract her to call.

"Okay, let's see for yourself."

It seems that this way is too hard and cold.

She was already very afraid of him. If she always kept such a straight face, he wasn't sure if she would turn off the phone and disappear the next day.For the first time, Qin Xiao was hesitant about how to reply a text message.

Later, I was lucky enough to ignore it.

Seeing that Qin Xiao didn't even reply to her text messages, Xiaobei imagined that the dog probably wouldn't get any good treatment, so after buying the materials, he took the bus to Qingcheng Mansion to see the little golden retriever.

When he arrived at Qin Xiao's house, when he opened the door, he heard the whining sound of the little golden retriever. Xiao Bei hurriedly looked for the light switch everywhere. After touching it for a while, he didn't know where his switch was hidden.I had no choice but to take off my shoes and walk to the place where I put the little golden retriever in the nest yesterday according to the dim light.

The little golden retriever sensed that someone was coming, and dragged its injured leg over to meet its master. It lay down at Xiao Bei's feet, and rubbed its head against Xiao Bei's body.

"You are quite good at acting like a baby. Is it really a male dog?"

Xiaobei said to himself.

The little golden retriever dragged Xiao Bei to the door. She guessed that the little guy had been locked up for a whole day, and probably wanted to go out for a stroll, so she hurriedly hugged him and prepared to go out.

Qin Xiao was also worried that the puppy had been locked up for a whole day, fearing that it wouldn't be able to hold back and would shit and pee at home.I was secretly looking forward to this scene happening in my heart.In this way, he can yell at the little girl to come over and clean up.

After parking the car, he was walking home when he saw Xiao Bei coming out with the puppy in his arms, Qin Xiao was overjoyed.She is quite self-conscious.

"Guo Zilin."

Xiaobei heard someone calling her, followed the sound, and was also a little surprised to see Qin Xiao came back.

"I'll take it for a walk."

There was no intention of inviting him, but he followed.

The two walked side by side for a while, and when they reached the crosswalk in front, Xiaobei put down the little golden retriever and let it find a place to have fun.

At night, the neon lights lit up one after another, and under the orange street lights, the figures of two people elongated.Qin Xiao stretched out his hand and held Xiaobei's right hand, but looked at the puppy in front of him without any trace, with a serious expression on his face.When Xiao Bei looked up at him, he was really about to lose to him.

"Walk with me for a while"

He walked her slowly.

"You were abused at Guo's house?"

he asked suddenly.

"what?"

Xiaobei didn't know why.

"Why don't you know how to take care of dogs? How can you do housework so rough?"

He looked at her with burning eyes, as if he had discovered her secret through her performance.The moment they looked at each other, Xiaobei's little vanity suddenly swelled, and she responded calmly: "What's wrong with Miss Guo's family? Does she not have to work and eat? She is not a fairy descended to earth."

Regarding her uprightness, Qin Xiao's expression was indifferent.At this moment, Xiaobei's cell phone rang, and the song "Invisible Wings" was especially harsh on the empty sidewalk.

If it wasn't for Qin Xiao's question just now, Xiaobei would have answered the phone without thinking, but at this moment, she blamed someone for calling at the wrong time.Xiaobei put his hand in his trouser pocket and pressed the phone to silent.

"A friend who invites me to dinner, don't pay attention."

Xiaobei explained.

But the caller was really persistent, and the phone rang again without stopping.

"Still not answering?"

Only then did Xiaobei take out her mobile phone slowly. Fortunately, the light was dim, so she couldn't see that her face was flushed, but she felt her palms were sweating.

Fortunately, seeing that she was going to answer the phone, Qin Xiao let go of her hand, walked forward a few steps, turned around and went to look for the little golden retriever.

It was Xu Jianan's call, asking how her work was going.Xiaobei chatted briefly and then hastily closed the line.

"Haven't you eaten yet? Let's go buy some supplies for the dog in a while, and then have dinner together."

Seeing that Xiao Bei had finished answering the phone, Qin Xiao turned to her and said.He saw that Xiao Bei subconsciously leaned her hand behind her back, not letting him touch it, not even letting him look at her, so he stared at her thoughtfully for a few times.
