Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 1030: Chapter 1031: Sucking Up and Playing Cute

After a year, Chiang Qing returned to the land of Qing City. As soon as she set foot in Qing City, her blood started to boil with excitement and an indescribable joy.

That person, where is he now?

Following the large group for research and meetings, Chiang Qing felt somewhat distracted but had no choice but to pull herself together. She was no longer a military doctor but a government employee.

Finally making it to noon, they announced it was time for lunch. Chiang Qing immediately felt energized; the itinerary mentioned lunch would be at the Joy Soon Loy Restaurant.

Joy Soon Loy Restaurant, if her memory served her right, wasn’t Cheng Su’s restaurant called Joy Soon Loy?

Could it be hers? Has the restaurant turned into a proper restaurant?

Indeed, a year always brings many changes; she herself has changed, hasn’t she?

"Xiao Chiang, tired?" someone asked Chiang Qing as she sat down in the private car arranged for their activities.

Chiang Qing turned her head and flashed a bright smile, "Secretary Gao, I’m not tired. But you, after such a long train ride yesterday and all the research today, how are you holding up?"

Secretary Gao, Gao Hongbo, was the secretary in Yanjing and had connections with Old Master Loo. Her father had visited him last year, and they kept in touch during holidays and festivals.

Chiang Qing was able to get a position in her current department thanks to him, so she put on an expression of sweet adoration to flatter this old man.

"Ah, I am indeed a bit tired! I’m an old man after all, can’t compare to you young folks," Gao Hongbo glanced at her charming face and gave a kind smile.

"You’re joking, how are you old? Even if you’re a bit up in age, you’re still hale and hearty. From what I see, those young lads can’t match your vigor!" Chiang Qing said sweetly, "You look like you’re just over fifty."

Gao Hongbo’s eyes twinkled, "Oh, do you really think so?"

Chiang Qing nodded, "Everyone says Secretary Gao has a youthful face. I didn’t believe it at first, but seeing it now, I can’t help but believe it!" She feigned disappointment.

Gao Hongbo was pleased upon hearing this, and seeing her pretend disappointment, he laughed aloud, "You girl, your mouth is sweet. No wonder your grandfather always praises you for being obedient."

Chiang Qing gave a shy smile, "I’m still inexperienced and look forward to Secretary’s guidance and support."

"Don’t worry." Gao Hongbo patted her shoulder and said, "Considering the friendship I have with your grandfather, I’ll look after you as if you’re my junior. If anyone bullies you, just speak up!"

Chiang Qing was very resistant to his shoulder pat, but she didn’t show it on her face. Instead, her smile became even sweeter as she thanked him.

Gao Hongbo closed his eyes for a nap, and Chiang Qing turned to look out the car window with a smile. That smile gradually faded, replaced by disgust.

When the car stopped at the restaurant, Chiang Qing got out first, then waited by the car door for Secretary Gao to exit. Together they stood at the entrance of Joy Soon Loy, observing.

The signage was still the same, and the location hadn’t changed, but the entrance was vastly different. Chiang Qing saw a familiar face greeting them at the door. If she remembered correctly, this was the girl named Qiulan, who used to stay on the third floor, working for Cheng Su!

So, this restaurant indeed belonged to Cheng Su.

Chiang Qing’s smile broadened, what a coincidence, and how fate brings old grudges to meet!
