He picked up the sullen Suisui and placed her on his lap. The little girl was visibly unhappy, her emotions written all over her face.
Suisui refused to look at him, turning her small face to the side.
Quan Jin gently turned Suisui’s face to look at him. "Suisui."
No response.
"Suisui?"
Still no response.
Quan Jin frowned, "Suisui!"
Suisui twisted her small face to the other side, giving Quan Jin a knowing look, "Hmph!"
Such a temper!
Quan Jin was self-aware enough to not hold it against her, knowing full well he had a bad temper himself.
He coaxed Suisui, "Mom’s busy working outside. Let’s go ho and wait for her. How about that?"
Suisui’s aggrieved little voice said, "I want Mommy."
"Alright, let’s go find Mommy." He couldn’t bear to see his daughter upset, let alone in tears.
But going to find that woman was out of the question, interrupting her secret eting with Uncle Five? He’d better be the good guy!
He was the one who cheated; he couldn’t stop that woman from pursuing happiness he couldn’t give her.
The dream last night was just a dream. It wouldn’t be fun if it beca real.
Quan Jin told himself this in his heart.
The driver was driving slowly, so Quan Jin changed the route to go to his place, buying more toys and snacks that children like along the way.
...
anwhile,
Gu Yuan left early in the morning naturally because of what happened last night.
She had originally planned to confess her identity as Gu Xueli to Quan Jin, but the incident last night made her worry that Chi Yu had regained his mory.
She feared that once Chi Yu regained his mory, everything would return to square one, otherwise everything would be ssed up.
Indeed, eting friends in Yanjing was true, she just didn’t expect to run into Quan Yin and his friend.
"I heard Mr. Quan was busy in Hai City, didn’t expect you’d finish so soon," Gu Yuan remarked casually.
Quan Yin wore a cotton white shirt with black trousers, his deanor was extraordinary. In such slightly formal attire, he looked calm and restrained, with the usual sandalwood scent.
Since he arrived, Quan Yin’s gaze had been fixed on Gu Yuan. Hearing her ntion it, he explained, "The matters in Hai City won’t be settled anyti soon. I ca back to Yanjing to handle other affairs."
Because of the collaboration with Junshan Group, Gu Yuan wasn’t so distant from Quan Yin, and eting him, she would initiate a greeting and engage in casual chat.
Quan Yin’s friend invited them to sit for a drink together.
Gu Yuan naturally wouldn’t refuse.
In front of her was a brand new network of connections, and her friend was also eager to join in.
Inside a clean bar on several dozen floors in the CBD.
Gu Yuan was having a delightful conversation with Quan Yin’s friend. It turned out the friend was an exceptional investor, a profession often referred to as a ’goldfinger’.
From the conversation, Gu Yuan learned that he was not only an outstanding investor but also the founder and managing partner of Qiansheng Capital Fund.
It’s known that Qiansheng Capital Fund’s annual total investnt exceeded over three hundred billion.
Gu Yuan was eager for talents, and encountering such talent, naturally, she wanted to make the most of it.
When they clinked glasses, Quan Yin glanced sideways, his eyes lingering on the cheerful arch of her eyebrows.
There is a saying: catering to one’s preferences.
She didn’t lack anything material.
However, conforming on professional terms gave her more aning than material gifts.
Look how happy she is.
Gu Yuan picked up a call, then returned placing her phone on the table.
Her phone didn’t have a case, and this ti in Sui City, she brought the phone she mostly used for business. The personal phone with ties to Quan Jin as Gu Xueli, she didn’t bring with her.
Then she unexpectedly found that Quan Yin’s phone looked the sa as hers, including the color and model.
Quan Yin called it a coincidence, "I use two phones. This is my personal phone. With busy affairs and no secretary around, I carry this phone, while the phone for work is with the secretary."
Clear distinction between work and private life.
Not only was the phone being the sa a coincidence, but even the situation with the work and personal phone was the sa coincidence.
"Indeed quite a coincidence, it seems there’s so connection between Miss Gu and ." Quan Yin sounded as if he were just saying it casually.
Without any other implications.
Gu Yuan smiled lightly, saying nothing.
This ti due to the phones being alike, Gu Yuan accidentally made a blunder, resulting in picking up the wrong phone when she got up.
Business and leisure talks are like that, using the phone as needed, so they were both placed on the table.
Sitting close to Quan Yin, she didn’t realize the phones had ended up together. The investor’s talk was humorous and witty, and when she reached for her phone, she ended up taking Quan Yin’s, although she realized right away, it still led to a small mishap.
