Chapter 442 - 416: Can’t Escape
"Are you disappointed?" Yu Minglang asked mischievously.
"I think I really like the smell of paint, just one whiff makes me feel great. I’ll stay here, you can take Shi Touyu and the others to eat." Qian looked at him provocatively, pretending to lie down. There’s no way Yu Minglang would let the beauty escape, so he grabbed her arm and pulled her up.
"Am I the kind of man who would leave my fiancée in a place like this?"
Shi Touyu nudged Qiao Zhen with her hand, see, how thoughtful he is of his girlfriend!
... Qian rolled her eyes. This guy is so shameless, blurting out things like this? It’s just enough to fool a little girl like Shi Touyu!
Of course, he wouldn’t leave her here, he had to take her to see the parking, and park for a whole night!
Qian and Shi Touyu came out from the main entrance, while Yu Minglang and Qiao Zhen returned the way they came. All their skills used for this moment.
Jumping down from the pipe, Yu Minglang put one hand in his pocket and asked Qiao Zhen casually.
"Hawkeye, where did you arrange for your sister?"
"My uncle runs a hotel nearby, I’ll get them a room. Her roommates can go too, as the paint smell won’t dissipate for a few days. I’ll explain the situation to the school." Qiao Zhen thought to himself.
Look at the boss getting so anxious that they’ve even used his nickname.
"Just get a double room, my dear Qian has a place."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Zhen paused, suddenly understanding something.
"... You... take it easy!"
No wonder he’s the boss, always ahead of everyone!
Yu Minglang righteously patted his shoulder, "You don’t have to take it easy either!"
Having said that, he left quickly, leaving Qiao Zhen standing there alone, constantly pondering the implication behind the boss’s words, feeling something was off?
Yu Minglang took Qian away, and Qiao Zhen was about to find Shi Touyu, but saw her gesture to wait, then quickly rushed into the dormitory.
A few minutes later, she came down with a bulging bag.
"I forgot Beep Bop and Bop Beep!" Shi Touyu patted her big bag, smiling brightly. Seeing her smile, Qiao Zhen suddenly remembered what Yu Minglang said. If he didn’t take it easy, what would happen...?
Qian got into Yu Minglang’s car, saw Shi Touyu and the others not coming along, so she asked.
"Aren’t you inviting them to dinner?"
"I’m much hungrier than they are." Yu Minglang’s eyes were deep, seriously looking at Qian.
This dinner, they’ve waited too long, have to have at least one hot bite!
Even knowing what might happen next, without saying something, the atmosphere felt strange.
"Xiaoqiang, how long can you stay this time?" Qian asked. In fact, she was more concerned about how many times he planned to do it.
Holding it in for 25 years, one can imagine the release flood effect, Qian was just making small talk.
"I can stay several more days, but with you only until tomorrow morning. I have to personally oversee an interview tomorrow and take the qualified people back to the company after the exam — even one night is enough."
She felt a chill down her back; his eyes on her seemed very meaningful.
Almost intimidated by his aura, Qian steadied her mind, pretending not to understand the deep meaning behind his words.
"Wasn’t it said to be only 2 hours?"
She wondered what calculation she did in her head before, feeling like she did something stupid again, she even considered the drive time to the nearest hotel from the school.
Time is tight, driving hastily...
Just when he was applying paint, she stood by feeling guilty towards him, now seeing his leisurely demeanor, Qian’s liver was burning with anger, feeling bullied by Yu Xiaoqiang. He must have predicted her reaction, which is why he pretended to act nonchalant, and now he’s talking about one night...
"I initially just wanted to come by, but after encountering someone I’m interested in, I changed my mind and plan to leave after the assessment."
"Assessment?"
"To reserve talent for the company, the headhunter showed me some excellent HR candidates, very qualified ones."
Qian understood.
He already systematically and orderly started cleaning the company, those who aren’t on the same page would eventually be kicked out.
Such a Xiaoqiang, so handsome...
Sensing her love-struck gaze, Yu Minglang turned his head and glanced at her.
"I’ve reserved a hotel in advance, so no one will bother us this time." Except for Auntie, he feared nothing, no one.
No, one!
Qian’s newly gathered admiration for him was dispersed by his eagerness.
"I bought a cake in advance, it’s in the trunk, saves time on eating. If you’re hungry, I’ll take you out to eat afterwards."
That’s the lesson learned from last time! Last time, the time was wasted on dining, Yu Minglang made all preparations in advance to overcome all obstacles, learning from past mistakes.
Annoying guy, why be so straightforward! Qian’s face heated up, turning her face to the window, avoiding his smug look.
Yu Minglang, in a great mood, hummed a tune.
Hearing the melody, Qian’s face felt like it was burning up, "Shut up!!!"
Yu Minglang pretended to look innocent, "Can’t I even sing?"
"You dare show off, I’ll go back to school!" Shameful guy, what is he singing! Don’t think she can’t understand!
Qian also once had her rebellious teenage years, also loved rock music, otherwise how could she sing Jindalai Flower so well.
What he’s humming now, translated... how could there be such unacceptable songs.
Simply shameless, he sings this!
"Qian, if you weren’t this sharp it’d be great, a woman’s virtue is in lack of talent. If you were like your brother in English, I’d be able to hum a whole song, especially the last line, I could sing it all night."
Compared to Qian’s subtlety, he’s now activating all senses, eager to play, grabbing any chance to indulge, to stir up emotions.
Feeling his burning emotions, Qian seriously asked.
"Would you be called back to deal with business when we arrive?" He’s even humming this cheeky tune, she’s really convinced by this man.
"Definitely not, I’ve instructed my people, even if the sky falls, I won’t be called back!" That’s the self-assurance!
"Both you and Qiao Zhen are out, who’s watching over things?" Going all out?
"We’ve just trained a batch of management recently, and I also want to take this opportunity to see how things run without me at the company."
He’d gradually replace them with his own people later, so he wouldn’t be tied to the company, also having more time to be with her.
Qian heard his confident tone, knowing she couldn’t avoid it, as the peach blossoms bloom in the passing peach grove, her own lifetime’s peach blossoms were starting to bloom too.
