Xu Lu wasn’t prepared for that question, “Who knows!? Just because they’re grown, doesn’t mean they can be used! There are lots of plants that cannot be used but are planted!”
Qiao Qing ignored her. She took out the Buddha’s hands she picked out and walked to the side.
With a blade and other appropriate utensils, she slid a “finger” off the fruit.
Xu Lu found this strange, “What are you doing? Weren’t you going to extract oil out of these?!”
Qiao Qing ignored her and continued to work.
All morning, Xu Lu was confused to no end by Qiao Qing’s weird operation.
By lunchtime, Xu Lu saw how focused Qiao Qing was and decided not to call her to eat.
When she was about to go eat and turned around, she found a deviously beautiful face looking into the room.
When she saw Jun Yexuan, who just showed up at the door, Lu Xu was stunned by his good looks.
Up until now, Gong Yi has been the most handsome man she’s ever seen. She originally thought nobody would be as beautiful as that man.
But when she saw this man’s face, she finally understood why some people’s beauty could not be described. None of the adjectives she could think of seemed to be sufficient enough to describe the person in front of her.
During the moments when she was lost for words, the handsome man asked, “Is Qingqing here?”
Qingqing?
Xu Lu finally regained herself and her voice went higher by a whole octave, “You’re looking for Qiao Qing?”
When Jun Yexuan noticed Xu Lu’s tone, his smile disappeared.
“Ah, she’s here! She’s inside.” Xu Lu quickly responded. She suddenly remembered what the driver told her this morning and her eyelid twitched, “What’s your relationship with Qingqing?”
Jun Yexuan ignored her and walked straight in.
Mu Jinghang on the other hand faked a grin and eyed Xu Lu, “She’s my third brother’s girlfriend.”
Her guess was validated and she fell into shock.
What the driver said this morning echoed through her mind, “The young miss has a boyfriend. She’s the one who doesn’t think Mr. Gong is good enough.”
She couldn’t help but ask Mu Jinghang, “Who’s that guy just now?”
Mu Jinghang cleared his throat and said proudly, “You know of third young master Jun from the Capital Country?”
Xu Lu, “!!!”
No wonder he was so handsome! He was third young master Jun from the Capital Country!
She couldn’t help but remember the comments everyone made about third young master Jun.
A demonic face so enchantingly beautiful. A dangerously handsome visage that scrambles hearts.
Now that she’s seen the real deal, she realized how true that comment was! There was no better way to describe him!
No wonder that driver said the young miss didn’t think young master Gong was good enough.
With third young master Jun as her boyfriend, why would she like anyone else?!
Wait, if that man was third young master Jun, then her girlfriend Qiao Qing would be…
As she pondered, she heard Mu Jinghang answer her unspoken question, “That’s right. My sis-in-law is the granddaughter of the number one Qi family in the Capital Country. She’s also known as the God of Racing, amongst other things. Her name is Qiao Qing.”
With a buzz, Xu Lu felt her brain explode.
She targeted her all morning and said so many things that may cause her death!
That thought made her sweat.
Mu Jinghang continued to press, “Therefore, during the time she’s here to make her perfume, don’t seek death and give her a hard time. Though my sis-in-law is born quiet and calm and never meddle with outside opinions, if you anger my third brother, you will suffer the consequences.”
Xu Lu’s face turned pale and she nodded in a hurry, “I… I got it. I will do whatever I can to guide Ms. Qiao.”
Inside the lab, Jun Yexuan watched as Qiao Qing focused on her project. His lips couldn’t help but curl up as affection spread across his face.
