“You’re so annoying. Shut up and drive.”
Mo Xue’er’s face darkened at the mention of Huo Siqian.
Jiang Ye knew that Mo Xue’er was trying to avoid the subject, so he stepped on the gas and drove away with her.
Huo Mian went directly to the president’s office, where Qin Chu was in the midst of delegating duties to the executives.
Huo Mian sat down on the corner of the sofa, afraid to disturb the meeting that was happening.
“Young Madam, here’s the milk you wanted.” Assistant Yang brought in a warm glass of milk.
Ever since Huo Mian began preparing her body for pregnancy, Assistant Yang’s traded coffee and tea for hot milk.
Huo Mian felt more and more awkward, however, as she was still not pregnant.
“Alright, that will be all for today. I want to see the improvements at the beginning of next month.”
“Yes, President Qin.”
“You may all leave.”
With that, all the executives turned around to leave.
“Young Madam.”
“Good afternoon, Young Madam.”
At the sight of their boss’s wife, several executives made sure to give their regards.
Huo Mian smiled, nodding.
After they all left, Huo Mian got up and sat down on Qin Chu’s legs, her arms intimately wrapped around his neck.
“You’re so busy every day. Do you ever feel that the work is dry?”
“I do.” Qin Chu nodded.
“Then… how about we trade? You can go be a doctor and I’ll take over as GK’s president for a few days, what do you think?” Huo Mian joked.
“That’s not a bad idea.” Qin Chu continued nodding.
“Haha… nevermind… being a doctor’s actually pretty easy. All you have to do is treat patients. Your job is too complicated. It makes my head hurt.”
GK was involved in too many industries. As its president, Qin Chu would often find himself impossibly busy.
“Oh, what’s this?”
Huo Mian looked down and saw a gift box on his desk.
“I’m not sure, Yang brought it in a moment ago. He told me it’s a delivery. I haven’t had the time to look at it yet.”
Qin Chu didn’t seem to care a lot about these things.
“You get deliveries too? Let’s open it. Maybe it’s something really valuable!”
She then began to tear open the box.
Inside it was a Versace men’s shirt. It was black, and its cuffs were decorated with diamonds. The shirt looked very luxurious.
Qin Chu already had a shirt like this… Huo Mian remembered that it was priced at 80,000 yuan.
“Who’s generous enough to buy you such an expensive shirt?”
“Who knows.” Qin Chu looked stoic.
Huo Mian took out the shirt and discovered a pink card at the bottom of the box.
“President Qin, Happy New Year! I hope work is going well for you.”
Then, Huo Mian saw the name written at the bottom of the card – Linyue, and she suddenly realized something.
Jiang Linyue? Is the woman still not giving up?
She was even more persistent than Song Yishi!
Huo Mian was almost impressed by the woman.
At the sight of the card, Qin Chu immediately took the shirt from Huo Mian’s hand and dumped it into the garbage can.
“Why throw it away?”
“Why else? Am I supposed to wear it?” Mr. Qin retorted arrogantly.
Huo Mian couldn’t help but laugh. “You could have just given it to Assistant Yang.”
“Do you think he has the guts to wear something like that? His wife’s going to make him kneel on durians.”
Assistant Yang came in with some documents just as Qin Chu finished his sentence.
He immediately corrected Qin Chu, “Wrong, sir. My wife would never buy something so expensive for me to kneel on. There are currently two bowls of cacti in my house.”
Qin Chu: “…”
Huo Mian: “Hahahaha!”
Huo Mian didn’t expect Jiang Linyue to give Qin Chu a Versace shirt, but she wasn’t affected at all.
After all, the girl was so far back in the get-with-Qin-Chu-line that she was barely visible.
“What do you want to eat later?” Huo Mian asked cutely.
“You.”
“…”
“Seriously!” Huo Mian protested.
“You asked for my opinion. Of course, I’m going to pick something I like.” Qin Chu looked more than innocent.
“Hubby… Uncle Li’s not back yet. It’ll be a pain to cook for ourselves. Let’s go eat Japanese food.”
“Sure.”
Huo Mian waited for Qin Chu, who didn’t finish work until 5:30 PM. They then drove to a famous Japanese restaurant.
Just as they parked their car, Huo Mian saw a woman coming out of the restaurant, catching her off guard.
“Why is she here?” Huo Mian murmured.
