Today, she wore a hat and walked slowly, clearly still suffering from the leg injury from last night. After waiting all night and being unable to contact her, Qin Zhen’s anger grew stronger. However, seeing her appearance and considering her injury, he swallowed his anger and could not express it. It was his carelessness last night that caused her injury, and it was understandable that she was angry and did not answer his calls. He consoled himself in this
way…
However, as he walked over to ask her where she had been last night, he saw Chi Ming catching up to her and handing her something, and they were chatting and laughing. Shen Qingyue even pushed Chi Ming lightly, and he patted her head with a smile before leaving.
Watching Chi Ming’s departing figure and the smile on Shen Qingyue’s lips, Qin
Zhen’s face gradually darkened.
Shen Qingyue did not even notice Qin Zhen’s presence and walked inside with the crowd.
Qin Zhen quickly walked over, his face dark as he shouted, “Shen Qingyue! Stop right there.”
Upon hearing his words, Shen Qingyue stopped in her tracks. “Why are you here?”
“Were you at that wild man’s house last night? Yes or no?” Qin Zhen only wanted one answer now.
It was during the morning rush hour on a workday, and many people had gathered at the entrance.
“Isn’t that President Shen?”
“Who is that man?”
“Don’t you pay attention to the news? It’s the century wedding of the Shen
Group and the Qin Group! Aren’t they the main characters of that wedding…” “Are they suggesting that President Shen is having an affair?”
“Are you out of your mind? They have already divorced. Now the ex-husband comes to question her, obviously not wanting to see his ex-wife doing better than him!”
“That’s right, I remember seeing the news before. President Qin was seen entering and leaving hotels with a woman. They’ve been caught so many times. Now, what face does he have to question others, especially his ex-wife! This man is sick. He can find a girlfriend himself, but his ex-wife has to remain single? What kind of reasoning is that…”
“News is always a mix of truth and falsehood. They’re probably both having affairs…”
People were discussing animatedly, as they were all eager for gossip. Shen Qingyue’s face turned unpleasant, and a sharp gaze swept over them, silencing everyone. After all, they were still working in the Shen Group…
Shen Qingyue turned around to face this big trouble.
“Follow me.” Her leg was not feeling great, so she found a corner and sat down, looking up at him. “Qin Zhen, be more mindful of the occasion next time. You have no shame, but I do!”
“Huh, you still have the audacity to talk about shame when you slept at a wild man’s house!” Qin Zhen’s face darkened. He could not believe Shen Qingyue could do such a thing.
Shen Qingyue’s voice was lazy as she leaned back in her chair, mocking him.
“Qin Zhen, are you telling jokes? What do you mean by a wild man? Both Chi Ming and I are single. What’s the big deal if we do whatever we want? It’s none of your business! If that’s how you see it, you’re with Wei Jiu’er every day, aren’t you fooling around?
Qin Zhen gritted his teeth. “You have no sense of shame!”
“Tsk!” Shen Qingyue rolled her eyes at him. There was no way to communicate with this idiot. She said directly, “Stop wasting time. What exactly do you want from me? Do you really want to know where I slept last night?”
Qin Zhen fell silent, indeed, that was one reason. He also wanted to see how she was doing after the injury. But now, he could not bring himself to say either reason. His pride did not allow him to bow his head.
Seeing him not responding, Shen Qingyue lost her patience. “Is that the only reason? Qin Zhen, you’ve been pestering me time and time again. It makes me wonder if you like me.”
At her words, Qin Zhen’s face turned dark, and he said decisively, “Even if all the women in the world were dead, I still wouldn’t like you, Shen Qingyue!”
“Is that so? Well, that’s great!” Shen Qingyue stood up. “Since you saved me last night, I, being a person who values righteousness, won’t scold you today. Also, please have some self-awareness and stop looking for me. Because if you really do like me, I won’t be happy; I’ll just feel disgusted. Of course, I appreciate that you don’t like me.”
After speaking, Shen Qingyue turned and walked away, leaving Qin Zhen with her back.
After Yu Zhuong reported a few work matters, he took out an invitation. “President Shen, this is an invitation to an auction. We’re almost ready for that piece of land.”
Shen Qingyue nodded and then said, “Help me make an appointment with the chairman of Xuri Group. I want to meet him tonight.”
“Don’t you know?” Yu Zhuang was taken aback and continued, “Xuri Group is under investigation due to a coal mine collapse incident. Moreover, most of their senior management were involved in wrongdoing. In the early years, during the mining disputes, they even caused deaths and buried the bodies in the mine. Now they’ve been taken away. It’s better if we don’t have any contact with them
