After Xiaomai prepared lunch and the two of them finished eating, Xiaomai cleaned the dishes. Ye Qiu asked her to go up and rest, but he planned to go to Xingyue Group to see Shen Xingru and Shen Yueru.
It had been a long ti since he had been there, and he didn’t know what the situation at Xingyue Group was like now.
As Ye Qiu drove off towards Xingyue Group, he arrived at the group’s underground parking lot and called Shen Yueru, asking, "Yueru, where are you?"
"I’m resting upstairs in the office."
At noon, Shen Yueru did not go ho to eat. Her parents had hoped for a family lunch, but if she was too busy, Shen Yueru would stay at the company for a working lunch and then rest. Her sister, on the other hand, probably because of her son, would go ho for lunch every day.
Ye Qiu parked the car, took the elevator up to the CEO’s office, and knocked on the door outside. Soon, secretary Liu Xiaoli ca out to open the door.
"Mr. Ye, you’re here."
Liu Xiaoli was surprised to see Ye Qiu.
When Ye Qiu sat down at the desk, he saw Shen Yueru resting in the boss’s chair.
Shen Yueru opened her eyes, noticed it was Ye Qiu watching her, and felt sowhat awkward.
Last ti, Louise personally ca to conduct an inspection, which brought a lot of fa to Xingyue Group. If the two companies joined forces, their clothing brand would definitely have a promising future.
Currently, Xingyue Group solely operated in the lingerie brand market, while Louise’s brand was in clothing and didn’t include lingerie, so there wouldn’t be market conflicts later.
"You’re here?"
Shen Yueru was surprised, thinking Ye Qiu was outside and not expecting him to arrive so soon.
"I went to The East Ocean for nearly a month and just returned not long ago."
No wonder Ye Qiu had not been seen; he had gone to The East Ocean.
Of course, Ye Qiu had sent her so cherry blossom photos, but Shen Yueru couldn’t confirm them.
Secretary Xiaoli poured a cup of tea for Ye Qiu and a cup of coffee for Shen Yueru, who happily said: "Qingcheng Group has gone bankrupt; now that Qingcheng is in debt, Xingyue Group has acquired it."
Actually, Shen Xingru always had her eyes on Qingcheng Group’s market. Although it wasn’t on par with Xingyue Group, its market share wasn’t small either.
To be honest, all the credit goes to Ye Qiu.
"What about that Wei fellow?"
"Qingcheng Group definitely has nothing to do with him anymore. The company is in debt, and he’s lucky not to have lost money."
However, Wei Guomin used to work under her father, but holding different views and wanting to build his own empire, he ventured out and nearly followed in Xingyue Group’s footsteps, never expecting to be toppled by Shen Yueru. Even Shen Yueru’s parents admired their younger daughter’s feat.
Of course, Shen Yueru knew that if it weren’t for Ye Qiu, it would have taken a decade to bring them down.
"Then, continue to expand the Xingyue Group’s market. I visited The East Ocean, and their lingerie market is good, but in terms of quality and fashion, they may not yet match Xingyue Group."
The East Ocean lingerie market?
How did Ye Qiu co across that?
"Who did you go with?" Shen Yueru imdiately asked unhappily.
She knew it was unlikely for Ye Qiu, a grown man, to go alone, so he must have accompanied so beauty. Considering her ambiguous relationship with Ye Qiu, to think he accompanied another beauty to see lingerie did make her feel uncomfortable.
"You don’t know them."
Ye Qiu went with Ma Wenwen and Hirano Seiko, whom Shen Yueru didn’t know.
Hearing this, Shen Yueru felt angrier. Does Ye Qiu know more beauties?
Liu Xiaoli inadvertently overheard this, and she was also surprised by Ye Qiu’s daring.
At the company, rumors were already circulating about Ye Qiu’s involvent with the Shen sisters, and now even with Director Xiao. Who knew there were more?
Liu Xiaoli couldn’t fathom what Ye Qiu was thinking.
After Shen Yueru got angry, she seed to lose interest in dealing with Ye Qiu. While she was looking at docunts, Ye Qiu gave Liu Xiaoli a cough as a signal.
Liu Xiaoli then left the office.
With no one else around, Ye Qiu moved his chair next to Shen Yueru and sat down. When Shen Yueru thought Ye Qiu was about to do sothing, he unexpectedly took hold of her hand and refused to let go. As he tried to hold her, Shen Yueru asked angrily, "What’s your relationship with my sister?"
During previous encounters, Shen Yueru saw Ye Qiu leaving with her sister on mysterious outings, which kept her puzzled.
But Shen Yueru knew her sister was sowhat pitiful, having almost died from a difficult childbirth, then from illness, and even nearly being stabbed to death by her ruthless husband.
Therefore, she didn’t know how to think of her sister.
But she didn’t want rumors to spread about Ye Qiu and her sister as it would make things awkward and difficult to handle.
"There’s nothing between us."
Ye Qiu said.
He had just treated Shen Xingru’s illnesses several tis, so of them in rather particular situations.
To be honest, he genuinely liked Shen Yueru, the cold and aloof CEO.
"What about Xiao i?"
"She’s quite nice."
Ye Qiu remarked.
"You’re insatiable, like a snake wanting to swallow an elephant," Shen Yueru reproached him. She had no idea how many beauties Ye Qiu had been involved with, leaving her uneasy.
While Shen Yueru was about to say more, Ye Qiu suddenly hugged her, leaving her without a chance to struggle. He said, "What’s most important is that you know I like you. Why worry about the others?"
"You!"
Shen Yueru sensed sothing wrong. If she liked Ye Qiu but also other people, would it be okay?
Definitely not.
"Then why can’t I have feelings for others? This is unfair!" Shen Yueru said directly.
In front of others, she appeared cold as ice, but inexplicably, Ye Qiu seed even more aloof.
"You can, but I won’t care about you afterward!" Ye Qiu replied bluntly.
He certainly wouldn’t get involved with won connected to other n. To him, that was unacceptable.
Shen Yueru fell silent.
Unless she stopped liking Ye Qiu, she could only accept what was happening in front of her; otherwise, as Ye Qiu said, he would no longer care about her.
Under such circumstances, how would Shen Yueru feel?
When Shen Yueru said nothing further, Ye Qiu remained, occasionally taking liberties with her, making Shen Yueru both love and hate him.
She loved his talent but hated his inability to be faithful.
"Trust , I’ll handle it all well later."
Ye Qiu knew that as soone cultivating for immortality, soday he might ascend. When that happened, these social statuses in worldly matters would be insignificant. Once he opened the Storage Ring and shared the Immortal Pill inside, they could step into immortal cultivation, like him, disregarding worldly roles and relationships.
