I'm The Hard Rice King

Chapter 167: There's a Pit Ahead

Finding a girl to pretend to be in love and get rid of being single is the best way Li Peifeng can think of to get through this.

And because Li Xin and he didn't have close contact, rarely saw each other, and had few common acquaintances, Li Peifeng didn't really need to find a girl to act on the campus of Beihua Normal University, and deliberately let Li Xin see her.

All you need to do is post an intimate photo with a girl that only Li Xin and Zhao Qingge can see on Moments, and make an official announcement, and you'll be able to deceive the world.

As for the girl in the group photo, Li Peifeng has already thought of a candidate, and that is Xu Manying, who is very suitable.

At that time, if Li Xin still asks about his girl's information, Li Peifeng will be able to answer it fluently, and will not reveal her secrets at all!

"What do you think?"

Li Peifeng revealed the whole plan, but Zhao Qingge remained silent.

He continued to explain patiently: "I just posted a photo on Moments. As you know, I have talked with Xu Manying before. Of course, this is all in the past. I have also deleted all the photos on my phone, but There is also a group photo in the computer, I forgot to delete it at the time, but I found it yesterday and it is still there, if you think it is okay, I will post this one."

While talking, Li Peifeng took out his phone and clicked on the photo.

The two people on the screen were in a restaurant, both wearing long sleeves, and their clothes did not violate the season. Their smiles were bright and sweet, and they looked like a couple from a distance.

"Good."

The corners of Zhao Qingge's mouth twitched slightly like a smile: "A man of talent and a woman's looks are a good match."

Smell it, the familiar sour smell!

Li Peifeng coughed dryly: "Then I won't post?"

"If you don't want to be disturbed, just send it, otherwise she will keep introducing you."

Li Peifeng understood that Lao Zhao agreed: "Okay."

Zhao Qingge cast a glance at him: "But you have to post it in two days, it's too deliberate to post it now, and at the same time, think about how to explain it to her."

Li Peifeng said without thinking: "I just said that my ex-girlfriend wanted to get back together with me. Thank you aunt for caring before, but I still can't forget her and want to be with my ex-girlfriend. This should be fine... Of course, this is just an excuse."

Li Peifeng's desire to survive is so strong!

Zhao Qingge shook his head indifferently: "It's reasonable, and it happened for real. Xu Manying really wants to get back together with you."

"I never agreed!"

Zhao Qingge was silent for a moment, then frowned suddenly: "You may have to agree."

"What?"

Li Peifeng was astonished, and said in his heart that I am going to open the harem by order?

Zhao Qingge's frown deepened: "My mother is very suspicious. She may not be completely relieved if she only sees your circle of friends. If there is a chance, it is best to let her see the two of you walking together. That is safer... …”

Li Peifeng scratched his head pretending to be embarrassed: "If, I say, if Auntie is really as you said, and you are still worried, just tell me and I will see if I can get Xu Manying to cooperate with me and show off in front of Auntie." A face."

"How did you get her to cooperate?"

Zhao Qingge asked back, but before Li Peifeng could answer, he seemed to remember something: "When you signed the Platinum contract, what gift did Xu Manying give you?"

"Nothing was given."

Li Peifeng's face didn't change: "You and I bumped into each other when we were shopping. I knew this and told her in advance. I wouldn't accept anything she gave me, so she didn't buy it."

Zhao Qingge nodded noncommittally and said with a smile: "Yesterday I saw you driving a new energy car to school. Did you buy it yourself?"

How to say?

It would be easy to cheat by lying. After all, he didn't buy the car, but telling the truth that Xu Manying gave the car to two people would definitely not work. Lao Zhao is definitely jealous...

This question caused a storm in Li Peifeng's mind. The CPU was instantly loaded to 99% and ran for more than a second. He finally said calmly: "The car is Xu Manying's investment in Wu Wenyue. She started a business, and we both have shares. Occasionally, when the company has business or something happens, I will open it."

Zhao Qingge was stunned for a moment and nodded slightly: "Then your relationship is really good."

"Average, average, mainly because the relationship between the two of them is relatively good."

"Can you tell me the reason why we have a good relationship?"

Zhao Qingge's eyes were complicated, and his tone was a little confusing: "Xu Manying fell in love with you, and then got back together with her. Now Wu Wenyue is starting a business, and you are here to help her, to be honest. I have never understood you... you guys Doesn’t this put aside the past grudges? It’s a bit chaotic.”

"No chaos!"

Li Peifeng said sternly: "It's not chaotic at all. I invested in Wu Wenyue just because I thought she would be very promising in the self-media industry. This is just normal business behavior." After that, he quickly changed the subject: "Director, how have you considered the matter that you said you wanted to resign?"

Zhao Qingge stared at him for a moment and slowly smiled: "I want to resign, but I have never thought about what to do next. Looking at it now, starting my own business and being my own boss is also a good choice. Will I let you invest in a share then?" "

Li Peifeng was slightly embarrassed: "You...you are joking, of course it is not impossible. If you really want to start a business, I will definitely help you!"

"Is it?"

Zhao Qingge stopped smiling and looked at him indifferently: "But starting a business is very risky. I will definitely not resign before I think about it."

Li Peifeng nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, you should be cautious."

Zhao Qingge looked at the time on his phone: "It's time for a meeting soon. Let's go to the venue."

Got hammered! !

Li Peifeng's heart felt cold. It was indeed because he was too close to Wu and Xu, which aroused Zhao Qingge's suspicion.

Li Xin's suspicion is easy to dispel, but how to dispel Zhao Qingge's suspicion? The latter is so smart...

Li Peifeng followed Zhao Qingge to the venue. He couldn't come up with a good idea all the way.

Lao Zhao only knew that three people started a business together. What if he knew that three people not only started a business together, but also lived together?

"Oh hoo, I'm afraid Yun Xin Yue Xing will block me!"

The more Li Peifeng thought about it, the more scary it became, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, so he simply didn’t think about it anymore.

"Sleep when you encounter difficulties. Escape is shameful but useful!"

…

"Everyone is here, right? Everyone, please be quiet. Starting from me, then to my left, in this order, everyone should introduce themselves."

This is the first group meeting after the new project application was approved. The content of the meeting is nothing more than recognizing familiar faces in the research team. The project leader determines the research significance of the project and clearly assigns research tasks again.

Professors came on stage to talk about their ideas, telling students what literature they should read recently, how to check data, how to have a correct scientific research mentality, etc.

There was nothing substantive, but it lasted a whole morning, and it attracted a lot of people.

Counting three professors, Zhao Qingge, five PhDs, and fourteen masters, there are a total of twenty-two people in the research group. Anyone who has any questions will discuss it for a while.

Li Peifeng paddled throughout the whole process, holding his mobile phone and typing words underneath.

Li Peifeng actually thinks that what Wu Wenyue and Xu Manying said makes sense. He can't spend too much time on this meaningless topic, otherwise his hair will graduate first before he graduates.

Furthermore, if you write your own novels well, you can spread online literature internationally, which is also the best practice for this subject.

At the end of the meeting, some students were still discussing with the teacher. Li Peifeng said something to Zhao Qingge and left the meeting.

"Let's go too."

"OK."

Zhao Qingge saw Li Peifeng walking away. He just got up and left with two disciples, Lin Zhihui and Lu Jing. As soon as he stepped out of the conference room, he said casually, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally: "You know that your senior brother is working with someone to start a self-media business." What about?"

"I know, Wu Wenyue, I saw her filming once on campus!"

“I followed her on TikTok!”

Lu Jing was very excited: "He's so handsome and beautiful. I can't help but want to see him. You should also know the director. Wu Wenyue is his good friend. He turns out to be the power forward of the school's women's basketball team."

Zhao Qingge hummed: "I know, but they are not the only ones working on this project. I heard from Peifeng that Wu Wenyue's girlfriend Xu Manying also invested."

"Really?" Lu Jing tilted her head and said, "Xu Manying's family is so rich, so it's normal for her to help her with money."

Lin Zhihui murmured in a low voice: "But senior brother, this is a bit strange."

"What's wrong?" Zhao Qingge said calmly, "What's weird?"

"It's very strange for the three of them to be like this..."

Lin Zhihui stopped talking and shrugged: "I don't know, maybe the three of us really have a good relationship. Maybe it's because the senior brother is cheerful and generous, so he doesn't take it to heart."

"It's not as complicated as you think."

Lu Jing knew exactly what her friend was saying, and said with a gossipy smile: "Wu Wenyue had the best relationship with her senior brother at the beginning. Xu Manying only got along later. After she broke up with Wu Wenyue, she took the initiative to pursue her senior brother. , seemed to have made the senior brother drunk, and the senior brother couldn't resist it, so the two got along like this for a while. So even if Xu Manying is the only public girlfriend of the senior brother, he actually doesn't necessarily like her that much, so he doesn't care too much, understand. right?"

"Understand!"

Lin Zhihui rolled her eyes: "Have you forgotten this or I told you!"

"Haha, you guys really know a lot."

Zhao Qingge's kindness was tinged with just the right amount of narrow-mindedness: "I care so much about your senior brother, are you interested in him?"

"No!" Lu Jing denied it very quickly: "Although senior brother is very handsome, and he is getting more handsome every day, but I only have the admiration and admiration for him as an ordinary school girl!"

Lin Zhihui did not deny her affection for Li Peifeng, but said bluntly: "I like Li Peifeng, but my senior brother is too popular. Director, you may not know that many female classmates have established a club in private called Chai Zhui. The scumbag girl group."

Zhao Qingge frowned slightly: "What kind of organization is this?"

Lin Zhihui looked around and saw that no one was nearby, then lowered her voice and said: "This club was formerly the famous Emotional Research Club in the school. It often held love lectures and emotional exchange meetings, with the purpose of conveying the correct view of love and promoting healthy love relationships. The establishment of the group has helped more than 200 single students become lovers and is very popular among students. But last week, the president He Yimeng secretly established a subordinate group. It is actually a WeChat group named Zhuifengzha. Most of the members in the girl group are girls who have socialized with their senior brothers.”

You know so clearly, you are also one of the members, right? ! !

The corners of Zhao Qingge's mouth twitched, and his eyes contained anger: "What do they want?"

"I just pay attention to my senior brother's activities on campus, occasionally discuss the novels he writes, find out which characters in them are based on me, and then scold my senior brother for being such a scumbag..."

Lin Zhihui realized later, maybe she just realized that she shouldn't tell her mentor this. She felt a little guilty and coughed dryly: "I didn't join, and I don't know the details."

Zhao Qingge took a breath, his face softened slightly, and his tone was gentle: "It doesn't matter if you join. I just found that your senior brother seems a little less interested in studying recently, so I want to know more. What else do you know about him? You can talk to me about life, feelings..."

On the last three words, Zhao Qingge gritted his teeth unconsciously and spoke in a serious tone.

"Well, maybe it's because he wants to start a business and write a novel, so he's quite busy..."

While Lin Zhihui was thinking about it, Lu Jing hesitated and said, "I heard from people in the Wind Chasers before that my senior brother seems to be living in a room with two girls, Wu Wenyue and Xu Manying. I don't know if it's true or not."

"Yeah?"

Zhao Qingge's eyes instantly turned cold.

Lu Jing was startled and said quickly: "Maybe it's a rumor, and even if the three of them live together, it's nothing. It's absolutely impossible for the three of them to be together, or to fall in love and live together, as they said... …The rent in the capital is so expensive, the three of us have a good relationship, and it’s normal to live together, so it should be a rumor.”

"Whoosh~"

An unexpected gust of late autumn wind blew through a few fallen leaves, bringing with it a chill, just like Zhao Qingge's face.

"It's so cold."

The two girls whispered subconsciously and tightened their clothes...

"rumor."

Zhao Qingge took a deep breath: "It's a rumor. Don't spread it around. I'll have a talk with him when I have time!"

Lu Jing had a puzzled look on her face, but she didn't dare to say a word in this inexplicable murderous atmosphere. When she reached the fork in the road, she said weakly: "Director, let's go first, we have to go to dinner."

"Go ahead."

Zhao Qingge waved his hand and walked towards the office building without looking back. His high heels clicked on the ground, and the hem of his black suit was swaying in the wind on both sides.

After waiting far away, Lu Jing shuddered a little: "Did I say the wrong thing? What did the instructor want to talk to the senior brother about? He seemed very angry just now. I have never seen him before. She is like this."

"I do not know."

Lin Zhihui also had a look of fear on her face: "It doesn't matter who the students live with? Is this necessary?!"

Lu Jing was unsure: "Maybe this is responsibility?"

"Do you need to tell your senior brother..."

Lu Jing's eyes widened: "Have you forgotten the rules of the group? The first one is that you must not reveal any information about the club to the outside world, especially the senior brother himself. I should have stopped you even if you were snitching on the instructor just now!"

Lin Zhihui groaned: "I'm talking about telling senior brother that the mentor wants to talk to him."

"Don't say it!" Lu Jing was even more frightened: "If the three of them didn't live together, then senior brother would definitely scold me for spreading rumors. If they did, senior brother would also blame me for talking too much...and you are also part of it!!"

Lin Zhihui was very decisive: "Just pretend I didn't say that!"

"I didn't say that either!"

"What did you just say?"

The two girls looked at each other silently and smiled tacitly. Invisibly, a big hole was dug for Li Peifeng, the kind that would kill people without paying for their lives...
