There was a clothing store on the side of the road. The glass window was very clear. Chu Qiao took off the clip, and the thick bangs fell down, covering the upper half of her face, making her beauty disappear immediately. Coupled with these baggy, old clothes, she really deserved to be called ‘auntie’.

Chu Qiao couldn’t help laughing, that stupid man actually called her auntie. She should have responded at that time, and got such a big nephew.

She was very satisfied with this image. Chu Qiao opened her mouth again, revealing her white teeth. Her teeth were pretty neat, except that she had two canine teeth. When she didn’t open her mouth, she was charming and cool. When she grinned, she looked a little naive. Chu Qiao didn’t know that later generations described her as cute but seductive, a style that otaku, straight, and flirty men all loved.

At this moment she looked like a sadako, that was even more sinister when she grinned. Chu Qiao practiced several times in front of the window. She had to pay attention to the curve of the corners of her mouth and the number of teeth she showed, strived to be the ugliest. Let Gu Jianshe retreat at first glance, and take the initiative to break off the marriage.

There was a wall clock in the clothing store. It was 8:40, Chu Qiao smiled. Gu Jianshe had a strong sense of time and hated others for being late, so she just wanted to be late.

Qingquan Teahouse was not far from the hospital and could be reached in five minutes. Gu Jianshe had been sitting for more than ten minutes. He arrived at the teahouse at 8:30 on time, neither early nor late, but he had drunk a pot of tea, and his blind date partner still had not arrived.

Gu Jianshe frowned, he had a protest in his heart. He, as a dignified deputy secretary arrived on time, but a drag oil bottle1 stepdaughter was already ten minutes late, and didn’t know the concept of time at all, which was too outrageous.

1拖油瓶 tuo you ping : drag oil bottle ; child of a previous marriage living with the family of the second husband.

If this Chu Qiao looked too ordinary, he would definitely not agree to this marriage. Although he was married for the second time, had two sons, and was not too young, but he was the deputy secretary of the machine tool factory, and his future was promising. His grandpa was still an old cadre, and his family background ranked first in the whole city of Shanghai. Girls with ordinary backgrounds were definitely not worthy of him.

Gu Jianshe thought of Xu Bilian. During this period of time, he had a passionate fight with her. He couldn’t help but feel a little regretful in his heart. It was a pity that his ex-wife died at the wrong time, after all it was only after Xu Bilian got married that she had an accident. Otherwise, he would not need a blind date now, he would just marry Xu Bilian directly.

Although Xu Bilian’s appearance was not particularly beautiful, she was ok. Her family background was not bad, and she could barely match him. Thinking of Xu Bilian’s enthusiasm in bed last night, Gu Jianshe’s heart became even more excited.

In fact, it was good to maintain the current situation. Every time he was with Xu Bilian, he thought of Gu Ye’s, a man who was cheated. This fact gave him a little bit of satisfaction.

Hmph, Gu Ye couldn’t compete with him since he was a child, and it became even worse when he grew up. Now he even lets his wife sleep with him. Gu Ye, that idiot, not knowing anything.

Gu Jianshe was in a much better mood. He raised his wrist to look at the time. It was already 8:50. Twenty minutes had passed since the appointed time. His good mood disappeared at once. It was a waste of twenty minutes. This Chu Qiao’s was indeed pretty arrogant.

She was just a stepdaughter, but had no self-knowledge at all.

Gu Jianshe sneered and decided to wait for another five minutes. If Chu Qiao still didn’t arrive by then, this marriage would be canceled. He, Gu Jianshe, was handsome and had a bright future. How hard is it for him to find a partner?

Chu Qiao actually arrived early. She stood outside the teahouse for a long time, and then slowly entered. As expected, she saw Gu Jianshe sitting in the lobby with an impatient face, so she walked even slower. She was ten meters away, and she walked for five minutes. She walked so slowly like a snail, until she arrived in front of Gu Jianshe.

“Hello, I’m Chu Qiao.”

Chu Qiao deliberately lowered her voice, which sounded hoarse and dull, different from her usual sweet baby voice.
