233: Chapter 0233: I’m Not Small, Alright?
Rather than saying Ye Xunhuan bumped into the woman approaching him, it would be more accurate to say that the woman who was walking towards him threw herself directly into his arms.
Ye Xunhuan hadn’t expected that as he opened the door and stepped out, soone else would be walking in from outside, and that soone would be a woman.
Most importantly, this was a woman Ye Xunhuan knew—and one with whom he had once spent an intimate ti!
This woman was none other than i Hanqing, with whom Ye Xunhuan had had a relationship through a fortuitous mishap!
i Hanqing also hadn’t expected to encounter Ye Xunhuan, let alone in this manner, which left her slightly taken aback.
“Sorry, I had no idea…” Ye Xunhuan hastily separated from i Hanqing as he spoke.
“It’s okay!” i Hanqing said with a calm expression, seemingly indifferent.
However, her eyes betrayed a hint of shyness, well concealed and thus unnoticed.
It was as if i Hanqing had already forgotten about their past affair, or rather, she didn’t seem to dwell on it.
But had she truly let it go?
Clearly not.
Upon realizing that the person she bumped into was Ye Xunhuan, i Hanqing’s mind involuntarily conjured up that absurd yet heart-fluttering and blush-inducing scene!
At that mont, Qiu Ruoxi suddenly spoke up, “Ms.
i, your timing is perfect.
I was just asking Ye Xunhuan to prepare to find you!”
Upon hearing Qiu Ruoxi’s words, Ye Xunhuan frowned slightly.
This woman was actually trying to force his hand!
i Hanqing glanced at Ye Xunhuan and prepared to walk past him, at which Ye Xunhuan imdiately stepped aside to clear a path.
“Ms.
Qiu, Mr.
Qin has already inford about the racetrack matter, but recently I have so things to attend to, I’m afraid…”
“No matter!” Qiu Ruoxi cut off i Hanqing bluntly, “Ms.
i, you just need to take care of the publicity, foreign affairs, and the overall image planning!
“I’ll entrust the rest of the matters to Mr.
Qin and Ye Xunhuan!”
“And I have already discussed with Ye Xunhuan; she will assist you on the side to speed up the completion of the work without taking up your other ti.”
“Ms.
Qiu, I…”
“Alright, it’s decided then.” Qiu Ruoxi didn’t give i Hanqing any chance to speak, using a commanding tone to settle the matter.
After hearing Qiu Ruoxi’s definitive words, i Hanqing’s face was filled with bitterness.
She had co to Qiu Ruoxi with the intention of pushing off the racetrack matter and asking Qiu Ruoxi to assign it to soone else.
But now it seed that Qiu Ruoxi had made up her mind, and i Hanqing couldn’t possibly change it.
This filled i Hanqing with a sense of powerlessness, after all, the work Qiu Ruoxi had entrusted to her was indeed her responsibility.
She took a deep breath and said, “I will do my best to complete it!”
Qiu Ruoxi nodded in satisfaction, “Alright then, get acquainted with Ye Xunhuan first, it’ll be easier to work together later!”
“Ms.
Qiu, I’ll go on ahead then!”
Qiu Ruoxi didn’t say anything further, just waved her hand to indicate that i Hanqing could leave.
After i Hanqing left, Ye Xunhuan directly challenged, “Qiu Ruoxi, what do you an by this?
When did I agree to you?”
“This is the company; it’s an order.
You have to comply, and I’m not asking for your opinion,” Qiu Ruoxi said coldly.
“An order, do you understand?”
“I…”
“Alright, if there’s nothing else, you can leave now!” Qiu Ruoxi began to issue a dismissal to Ye Xunhuan.
Seeing Qiu Ruoxi absorbed in her work, Ye Xunhuan humd, “Just don’t go volunteering to swap out when the ti cos.”
Qiu Ruoxi seed as if she hadn’t heard what Ye Xunhuan said, paying him no mind whatsoever.
After Ye Xunhuan left, Qiu Ruoxi slowly raised her head, “You really think I wanted you to take charge of the racetrack?”
After leaving Qiu Ruoxi’s office, Ye Xunhuan went to find i Hanqing.
While in Qiu Ruoxi’s office just now, Ye Xunhuan could clearly sense that i Hanqing was preoccupied, and also seemingly reluctant to take responsibility for the racetrack matter.
Could she have encountered so trouble?
Moved by good intentions, Ye Xunhuan intended to go and ask.
Arriving at the entrance to i Hanqing’s office, Ye Xunhuan knocked gently on the door.
“Co in!”
After hearing i Hanqing’s voice, Ye Xunhuan pushed open the door and entered.
When i Hanqing saw Ye Xunhuan, a hint of speechlessness flashed across her face, but she quickly regained her composure and asked him, “Is there sothing you need from ?”
“Nothing much,” Ye Xunhuan said indifferently, “I noticed you seed quite unwilling to take charge of the racetrack matter in Director Qiu’s office.
Could it be because of my involvent that you…”
Ye Xunhuan did not cut straight to the chase and ask i Hanqing if she had encountered any problems.
After all, he and i Hanqing were not very familiar, except for that one ti, due to a mix-up, when they had an encounter, they hardly had any interaction.
“You’re overthinking it,” i Hanqing shook her head decisively, “I have so matters to attend to, so I’d prefer not to take charge.
It has nothing to do with you.”
“Oh, I see!” Ye Xunhuan’s face revealed a look of understanding, “And here I thought you were reluctant to take charge of the racetrack because of !”
i Hanqing gave a faint smile, “It’s surprising that you’re so vain.
You don’t think I’d have a grudge against you just because we had an encounter once, do you?”
“Don’t worry, I’m not that petty!”
Concerning their last encounter, i Hanqing was completely straightforward and unreserved.
This made Ye Xunhuan’s old face couldn’t help but turn a slight shade of red!
“Wow, I didn’t expect you to blush!” i Hanqing, as if she had discovered a new world, said with so surprise, “That doesn’t seem like a grown man at all!”
“Whether I’m a grown man or not, you should already know,” Ye Xunhuan responded with a hint of deeper aning.
Facing such a suggestive remark from Ye Xunhuan, i Hanqing’s cheeks reddened, “Scoundrel!”
“How am I a scoundrel?” Ye Xunhuan looked at i Hanqing innocently, “I’m speaking the truth.
After all, I’m in my twenties.
Isn’t a man in his twenties a grown man?”
Suddenly, i Hanqing found herself at a loss for words against Ye Xunhuan.
She also realized that Ye Xunhuan was a seasoned player, and she was no match for him!
Seeing that i Hanqing wasn’t responding, Ye Xunhuan spoke up again, “Are you free tonight?”
i Hanqing’s gaze swept over Ye Xunhuan with interest, “Are you asking out to dinner?”
“Of course, I plan to take you to see a movie after dinner.
I’ve heard that a lot of good ones have been released recently!” Ye Xunhuan invited i Hanqing with utter sincerity, “I wonder if the lovely lady has the ti to grace with her presence?”
