Chapter 132: Chapter 131 Director Qi, You Are So Amazing (Added)
Lu Mian’s hand grasping the burger paused, and upon hearing his question, she lazily put it back down.
She leaned back, resting against the back of the chair.
A faint smile played on her face as she remained silent, but the four words were clearly written in her expression: “None of your business.”
When people beco guarded, their bodies involuntarily retreat, assuming a self-protective stance.
Xiao Qimo understood Lu Mian’s guardedness and felt sowhat sad.
The little brat didn’t have him in her heart at all, yet he was obsessing over her day after day…
Even on this business trip, he was preoccupied with her.
The scholarly man turned over these thoughts in his mind, yet outwardly remained as composed as ever, gently placing the burger back in Lu Mian’s hand and slowly pushing up his glasses.
“Don’t get wrong, I’m not trying to pry into your private life,” he said gentlemanly. “As the school’s guidance director, it’s my responsibility to help you discern social connections. You might be an adult, but you’re still a student.”
“Hah…” Lu Mian laughed wildly, her eyes and eyebrows full of an unruly pride as she shook her head. “Director Qimo, are you the sea?”
“?”
“Why are you ddling so widely?”
“…” Xiao Qimo inwardly cursed her as a little brat.
Lu Mian added, “You’re overthinking it. The burgers from Boss Yu’s place are really tasty, isn’t it normal for to be friends with him?”
She recalled briefly that yesterday at the cashier’s counter, Xiao Qimo and Yuren had indeed t, and she had indeed ntioned that Yuren was her friend.
Noticing the disbelief in Xiao Qimo’s peripheral vision, she propped her elbow on the table and suddenly leaned forward, closing the distance across the dining table.
She tucked a stray hair behind her ear with her finger, her flamboyant and wickedly beautiful features reflected in Xiao Qimo’s eyes.
That little red mole…
The man’s Adam’s apple moved slightly.
His dark, deep eyes shifted down for a mont before quickly looking away.
He could almost hear the sound of his own heartbeat, as the normally calm lake of his heart was stirred into turmoil.
Lu Mian chuckled softly, scanning the rich spread of dishes on the table and said with a low, soft laughter, “Director Qimo is so capable, if you don’t believe , you can check it out…”
“…”
Those clear, penetrating eyes seed to see right through him, leaving the man with a deep and somber gaze resting helplessly on her face.
He was certain he wouldn’t get anything out of her today…
“Let’s continue eating,” he gestured politely.
He consoled himself that today wasn’t entirely without its gains, at least Lu Mian had just complinted him for being “so capable.”
Lu Mian quickly withdrew herself, crossing her legs with the composure of a boss. She ate her burger leisurely while not forgetting to pull out her phone to play, her actions casual and mischievous.
“Mr. Capable” was sitting right across from her, yet she was audacious enough to directly text Zero.
Mian: [The stocks from last ti can be sold now.]
Zero: [It’s finally ti! Hahaha, I’ve been waiting for this day for so long!]
Mian: [By the way, tell Handso Yu to leak so information casually.]
Zero: [What do you an?]
Mian: [If soone can’t find anything, it would be quite a blow to their pride.]
Zero: […………]

The afternoon brought a physical education class.
After the students had gathered and ward up, the kind-hearted PE teacher let them have free ti.
Su Luo was highly efficient, quickly organizing three competitive events and preparing the equipnt, inviting Lu Mian to face her in the challenge.
Their competition was the hot topic in class today.
Many people surreptitiously placed bets with spicy strips, betting that Su Luo would definitely beat Lu Mian.
Lu Mian might be good in physics, but she was weak in other subjects.
Lu Mian had won the Go competition, but she was no match for the Go princess!
So who openly or secretly disliked Lu Mian also unkindly sided with Su Luo.
