Xiao Qi isn’t entirely unaware of what sche the Sus are up to, but he genuinely has no feelings for Su Yun, so he can only disappoint the Sus for their fondness of him.
"Don’t worry. Who am I? It’s enough if I don’t let them take advantage." Qin Xue chuckled. She hadn’t used her skills for a long ti and wanted to stretch her muscles. However, Chu Molin wouldn’t let her do so, so she thought it would be good to get so exercise when possible to avoid letting her bones rust.
"I’ve heard from the boss that you’re skilled. I always assud he was joking. Now it seems I was too quick to assu." Xiao Qi found it hard to believe since Qin Xue seed so refined and gentle. She didn’t look like soone with skills. Last ti they caught human traffickers, it was dark, so he thought she was just lucky to knock down a few people. But now he sees that wasn’t the case at all.
"Of course. If I could catch Chu Molin’s eye, do you think I’d be that bad?" It’s not that Qin Xue is blowing her own trumpet, it’s just that she’s genuinely excellent.
"Yeah, I know the boss has a sharp eye." Xiao Qi was very certain about this. Chu Molin not only had a sharp eye but also a sharp tongue. His words were rciless enough to make people speechless.
"Alright, no more bragging. I gotta go now, see you later." Qin Xue finished the last sip of coffee in her cup. This stuff wasn’t easy to co by, so she wouldn’t waste it.
"Okay, I’ll walk you out." Wen Qing smiled at Qin Xue’s deanor. He had coffee in his office, so he went to get a can to give to her.
"No need, I know the way out. You guys should get back to work." When Qin Xue arrived, she ca on her own, so she knew the way out.
"There’s another reason I’m walking you out. Let’s go, it’s because I’m going to get coffee for you." Wen Qing laughed at Qin Xue’s puzzled expression, thinking she shouldn’t assu he had fallen for her and insisted on escorting her.
If that were the case, he really needed to be ntally prepared for Chu Molin coming to hassle him.
"You have extra coffee? How much, I’ll pay you." Qin Xue’s eyes lit up at the ntion of coffee, as she craved it. In this era, it’s difficult to co by this stuff. Without connections, it’s hard to drink it. The fact that Wen Qing had so to give her indicated his background and connections were good, otherwise he couldn’t get his hands on these rare items.
And not everyone loves coffee. It can be sowhat bitter, but once you drink through the bitterness, a sweet aftertaste slowly overflows from the throat to fill the entire mouth.
Qin Xue especially loved coffee, as she felt sotis the more bitter the coffee, the more it represented her mood. But after eting Chu Molin, her world changed from bitterness to sweetness.
However things turned out, she gradually overca the bitter days.
Moreover, Qin Xue felt that coffee reaching the Imperial Capital in this era proved that sothing represented certain decisiveness in the new era.
Because this marked the country’s entry into a new era. Even if not recognized now, it wouldn’t stop people’s progress.
"You don’t need to pay. I said I’d give it to you, so I’m giving it to you. If you like it, next ti I go abroad for business trips, maybe I can have soone bring it back for you." Wen Qing didn’t see it as a big problem. Having soone bring so things back was normal. He only asked favors from people he was familiar with, or he wouldn’t ask.
