Chapter 100 The Stress Monster
Chapter 100 The Stress Monster
The atmosphere right now is quite unpleasant.
After lunch, Jiang Qiaoqiao sent Aunt Zhao to pick up Lin Ran and Tao Zhiyao, and she herself was in the car as well.
Aunt Zhao sat in the driver's seat. There was a traffic light in front of her. She gently stepped on the brake and stopped outside the red line, letting a little child holding a red heart-shaped balloon skip and hop across.
Suddenly, *smack*.
The heart-shaped balloon floated to the middle of the car and burst without any warning.
It seems to foreshadow something dangerous.
Aunt Zhao glanced at the rearview mirror. Lin Ran was sitting in the middle, Tao Zhiyao was on her left, and Jiang Qiaoqiao was on her right.
Although the three were chatting, the atmosphere was subtly off.
For example, Jiang Qiaoqiao would bring up topics, Lin Ran would answer them, Jiang Qiaoqiao would guide Tao Zhiyao's conversation, and Lin Ran herself would just play a supporting role, only saying a word occasionally.
This is where things really go wrong.
Aunt Zhao watched Jiang Qiaoqiao grow up and knew her personality best; she was definitely not one to willingly play a supporting role.
So the question is, what is the reason that made the young lady make such a big concession?
Aunt Zhao was ultimately an outsider and couldn't understand the entanglement between them.
No, that's not right. If I become an insider, then something's not right, is it?
A strange idea popped into Aunt Zhao's head, and she broke out in a cold sweat.
The light is green!
Aunt Zhao shook her head, clearing her mind of distractions, and focused on driving.
"Aunt Zhao, don't go back yet, go pick up Su Lingle," Jiang Qiaoqiao said.
Lin Ran was just chatting with Tao Zhiyao about the taste of the meat at the self-service hot pot when he heard Jiang Qiaoqiao's voice and immediately fell silent. Tao Zhiyao also shut her mouth.
"……good."
Aunt Zhao's eyes twitched, and she suddenly felt a strong urge to escape from here.
The atmosphere was already strange with just three people; if we added another person and the room was full, what would it become?
While Aunt Zhao was afraid, she also felt a little bit of anticipation.
As a seasoned soap opera enthusiast, I love watching the complex emotional entanglements between men and women.
Could I be witnessing a grand spectacle in real life?
No, no, I'm on Qiaoqiao's side, how could I be on the wrong side and become a laughingstock!
After parking her car in the residential area, Jiang Qiaoqiao called Su Lingle:
"Go downstairs."
"It won't go down."
"it is good."
"Wait, why did you agree so readily this time? Is Lin Ran by your side... *beep beep*"
Jiang Qiaoqiao hung up the phone without waiting for her reply, then turned to the two people looking at her and said:
"They'll be down soon."
Sure enough, less than five minutes later, Su Lingle came downstairs and started banging on the car window.
With all the seats in the back filled, Su Lingle had to sit in the front. The moment her bottom touched the leather seat, she started chattering non-stop:
"Jiang Qiaoqiao, you heartless, wicked woman! Did you hang up the phone just now because you wanted to abandon me? Ah, I know, Lin Ran and Tao Zhiyao are both here. As long as you called and asked me, the responsibility for my not coming won't fall on you. That way, you can say, 'Ah, I invited Su Lingle, but there's nothing I can do if she doesn't come. Sigh, I really want to be good friends with her, why doesn't she appreciate it?' Right?!"
Su Lingle lay on the seat, her face serious, and questioned Jiang Qiaoqiao.
"..."
Jiang Qiaoqiao didn't say a word, but tilted her head and smiled, revealing a look of care for people with intellectual disabilities.
"Whoa! Biubiu! That despicable Jiang Qiaoqiao, how dare she pollute my pure soul with such wicked eyes! Her sins are unforgivable! Behold... Ah!"
"Ms. Su, we're about to start driving. Please fasten your seatbelt."
Aunt Zhao's voice sounded calm, but her lips were twitching, and she looked very uncomfortable.
The slap she delivered just now landed on Jiang Qiaoqiao's buttocks, causing her flesh to jiggle several times. The deep crevice in her chest, created by the pressure, revealed no trace of innocence from any angle.
Qiaoqiao's friend is really... sigh.
Even after sitting down, Su Lingle couldn't stay still. She looked in the rearview mirror and muttered that she needed an explanation from Jiang Qiaoqiao.
Jiang Qiaoqiao ignored him, leaned against the car window, and closed her eyes to rest.
Jiang Qiaoqiao remained silent, so Su Lingle turned to chat with Tao Zhiyao. The two girls talked about topics that were only for girls, such as menstruation, breast massage techniques, and how to keep men from straying...
Lin Ran was terrified. Su Lingle appeared to be a great beauty, but her heart was dark. Her various methods of punishing men almost made Lin Ran think he had entered a BDSM play club.
Tao Zhiyao focuses more on women's physical issues, such as big breasts, big breasts, big breasts, big breasts... big breasts.
In short, there was no opportunity for Lin Ran to interrupt for the time being, so he closed his eyes, leaned back in his chair, and rested with his eyes closed, just like Jiang Qiaoqiao.
Once outside the city and into the suburbs, the surrounding area was lush and green, making it feel like entering another world.
Lin Ran had come a few times and gotten used to it, while Su Lingle and Tao Zhiyao came less often and were very curious about their surroundings.
He fell asleep without realizing it, and only opened his eyes when he felt the noise and got off the bus with the girls.
The villa's maid stared wide-eyed at the four people getting out of the car.
Lately, the young lady has been bringing more and more people home. A while ago it was just one person, but now there are four, and they are all very beautiful.
But, isn't the gender a bit off?
One man and four women, this combination doesn't seem quite right?
"You all come with me." Jiang Qiaoqiao glanced at Su Lingle, "especially you."
The group followed Jiang Qiaoqiao to the music room on the first floor.
Looking at the corner that had been converted into a small recording studio, Su Lingle couldn't help but say, "Wow, Jiang Qiaoqiao is awesome, she's got money."
Jiang Qiaoqiao ignored her teasing and instead pulled Tao Zhiyao over, bringing her a piano stool to sit down.
"Don't be shy, make yourself at home."
"Yes, thank you," Tao Zhiyao said with a smile.
"You're still too reserved. Relax." Jiang Qiaoqiao patted her shoulders quickly with both hands.
"Hey, where's my chair?" Su Lingle asked.
"You?" Jiang Qiaoqiao turned around, her gentle expression instantly turning cold. She pointed to the corner and said, "There's a plastic stool. Go get it yourself."
"I want you to take it!" Su Lingle stomped her foot angrily. "Double standards! This is blatant double standards!"
"Oh."
Jiang Qiaoqiao sneered disdainfully.
The two girls were about to start fighting, but Lin Ran wasn't in a hurry. He took the piano stool that belonged to Jiang Qiaoqiao, sat down under it, and leisurely watched the show.
It's normal for these two girls to argue when they meet. If one day they shake hands and make up, calling each other "sister" or "brother," that would be the most abnormal thing.
After a brief argument, both women felt better and started recording.
Lin Ran and Su Lingle walked into the recording studio. They had practiced the song last night and could sing it directly today.
Jiang Qiaoqiao was listening with headphones on, holding Tao Zhiyao's small hand in one hand. They looked like inseparable sisters.
but……
Tao Zhiyao lowered her head and looked at the cool little hand. The skin was so white it was unbelievable, as if the person was sick. Just by holding it, she could tell how weak the owner of the hand was.
"Sister Qiaoqiao".
"Hmm? What's wrong? Are you hungry? I'll go find a chef to cook for you," Jiang Qiaoqiao said immediately.
"Don't always worry about me, you're under too much pressure."
