After the Betrothal Gift Negotiation Failed, I Turned and Married the Tycoon

Due to issues with the betrothal gift, Qiao Xing's two-year relationship with her boyfriend collapsed overnight. Feeling disheartened, her elderly neighbor insisted his grandson go on a blind d...

Chapter 82 He seems like a gigolo.

Chapter 82 He seems like a gigolo.

Qin Ce snapped out of his daze and glanced at Han Yan.

Especially when he saw Han Yan's smug smile and remembered Qiao Xing's praise for him, he hated that face more and more.

That's it?

It's impeccable, what terrible taste!

Han Yan noticed the murderous intent emanating from his eyes and couldn't help but swallow hard. "Why are you looking at me like that? I was just trying to be helpful, I didn't say anything!"

"What do you want?" Qin Ce asked coldly.

"Oh, I almost forgot the important thing. This is the list of job transfers at Weisheng's place. I didn't want to show it to you, but..."

Han Yan paused for a moment before saying, "Qiao Xing's name isn't on this list of managers. If you won't let her be a manager or anything, why won't you even give her a team leader position?"

Qin Ce leaned back, took the document, and casually flipped through it. "This is their internal matter; I won't interfere."

"Tsk, what kind of husband are you?"

Qin Ce paused, then suddenly looked up at Han Yan, "Then what should I do?"

Han Yan was stunned for a moment before he said, "You concealed your identity from her and didn't help her openly, but at least you should have sought some benefits for her behind her back, right?"

"Tell me, if you do nothing, what's the point of her having you as her husband? If she finds out who you are in the future and you haven't done anything for her, what do you think she'll think?"

Qin Ce stared intently at Han Yan for a long time, until Han Yan felt uneasy, before finally speaking: "Do you understand her?"

Han Yan was stunned again. "Why would I need to know about your wife? Don't scare me!"

Qin Ce said, "You don't understand her, so how do you know she wants my help?"

"Also, she just transferred to that department. If we give her a team leader position, do you think her colleagues will respect her? That's not helping her, it's making trouble for her."

It has to be said that Qin Ce's analysis makes a lot of sense. If Qiao Xing were to become the group leader, she would definitely face a lot of trouble. Bai Yi is a good example of that.

Qin Ce continued, "If she has the ability, she won't need my help; she will climb up on her own."

Han Yan nodded and smiled, "You're right, but how should I put it? Sometimes work and feelings are two different things."

"If a person is as rational in their relationships as they are in their work, the relationship probably won't last long. Of course, if you don't have feelings for the other person, then disregard what I said."

This time, Qin Ce didn't speak. He frowned slightly, glanced down at the list in his hand, and seemed to be deep in thought.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Han Yan turned to leave.

Suddenly, I heard Qin Ce say from behind, "You seem to know a lot?"

Han Yan paused, turning back in confusion: "What did you say?"

Qin Ce looked up at Han Yan and repeated, "You seem to know a lot about matters of the heart?"

This is absolutely not sarcasm. You can tell from the thirst for knowledge in Qin Ce's eyes that he is genuinely asking questions.

Han Yan coughed. "It's alright, I don't know much about it. Is there anything you want to ask?"

Based on the experience gained by Yang Han and Jiang Wang, those two braggarts, last night, those who usually boast about how great they are are definitely only half-baked.

On the contrary, people like Han Yan who are modest are often quite capable.

However, seeing Han Yan's eager look and Qiao Xing's praise of Han Yan, Qin Ce swallowed back the words he was about to say.

"No, you can leave now."

Han Yan was somewhat disappointed; he had thought he would hear something from this serious-looking person.

"It's pointless." Han Yan sighed and turned to leave the office.

Qiao Xing waited downstairs for a long time, until Lin Shuang felt too embarrassed to linger any longer.

Because Zhang Zhe had already been standing there with her for a long time, if she continued to wait any longer, all her little schemes would be discovered.

In that case, it would truly be a case of losing everything, with no one benefiting from either outcome.

Therefore, Lin Shuang had no choice but to bite the bullet and leave with Zhang Zhe.

Qiao Xing sat on the electric scooter and waited alone for about ten minutes before she saw Qin Ce leisurely come out of the company.

She quickly got off the electric scooter and handed the helmet to Qin Ce.

Qin Ce skillfully took it, put it on his head, and then skillfully sat down on it.

He had been riding his electric scooter for so long that he had completely forgotten about his scooter, which was still impounded at the traffic police station.

Qin Ce, sitting in the back, remembered Han Yan's words and suddenly asked, "Qiao Xing, has there been any personnel change in your company?"

"Yeah, how did you know?"

"That's what someone said." Qin Ce made up a story on the spot. He was referring to Zhang Zhe, but he couldn't remember the name.

"Oh, Zhang Zhe is talking about, right?"

"Um."

Qiao Xing laughed and said, "I knew it, it must have been Lin Shuang who told him."

"So, would you like to be the team leader?"

"Who wouldn't want a promotion and a raise? It's just that I'm still learning planning, and even if I wanted to, I wouldn't have the skills."

Qin Ce gripped her waist, and after a long while, he finally managed to say, "If you want, I have a way..."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the electric scooter braked suddenly, and he crashed into Qiao Xing's back without warning.

The helmets collided, and both men sustained a considerable impact, but neither was seriously injured.

Qiao Xing suddenly turned his head, his eyes under the helmet staring straight at Qin Ce.

"Don't do anything reckless!" Qiao Xing said anxiously, her speech becoming much faster. "Even if I wanted to, I would only do it through my own abilities. I don't want to use connections."

"Without the ability, even if I become a team leader or manager, I'd just be a pretty face with no substance. I wouldn't even have the face to sit in that position."

Qiao Xing knew the solution he was referring to: go find Han Yan. As the vice president of S&C, Han Yan certainly had the ability to do so.

But what's going on here?

She wanted Qin Ce to be sexually harassed so she could get a promotion and a raise... If that really happened, she might as well just kill herself.

Qin Ce stared at her, stunned for a long while, before saying somewhat awkwardly, "I was just saying."

Qiao Xing breathed a sigh of relief. "You scared me to death. You don't need to worry about my work. I'll work hard and make sure you don't go hungry."

"..."

That shouldn't have come out of a woman's mouth; it makes him sound like a gigolo.

Her gaze was intense and earnest, and Qin Ce suddenly found it difficult to look her in the eye, which made him feel a strange sense of guilt and unease.

It would make her feel like a heinous person, and it would also make his decision to hide his identity seem childish and despicable.

Not long ago, he thought Qiao Xing was a scheming woman.

And now, that sense of guilt is growing stronger and stronger for no apparent reason.

So much so that the longer they spent together, the less he could bring himself to be honest.

He subtly shifted his gaze to the setting sun on the horizon. "I understand."
