Exploitation from the beginning to the end?

Although Qin Huai likes to go against Qin Siyan, he also knows that with Lu Jin here today, he won't get any benefit at all.

"I'm sorry, I just said something without thinking." Qin Huai said sorry, but his eyes were full of disgust when he looked at Qin Siyan.

Without staying any longer, he turned around and left, his movements so fast that it seemed as if he was escaping.

Qin Siyan ignored Qin Huai and instead fixed his gaze on Lu Jin. Seeing Lu Jin staring silently at Qin Huai's back, he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

Lu Jin came back to her senses and looked back at Qin Siyan. She couldn't help but ask, "Has he always bullied you like this?"

She could clearly feel Qin Huai's hostility towards Qin Siyan.

She didn't understand the grudge between them, but Qin Siyan was hers now, so she would never let Qin Siyan suffer any humiliation!

Although Qin Huai is the person she needs to win over now, if he faces Qin Siyan, he still has to stand behind him!

The girl's eyes were full of heartache, and Qin Siyan felt warm in his heart.

Both Lu Jin's protection and her concern at this moment made Qin Siyan feel happy.

"fine."

Although Lu Jin's concern made him happy, Qin Siyan didn't want her to worry: "I usually ignore him."

"Next time he bullies you, tell me and I'll help you beat him up." Lu Jin said seriously.

Qin Siyan was amused by her words, thinking that the little girl was just comforting him and obviously did not take her words to heart.

The two sat down again to eat snacks.

Qin Siyan looked at the happy smile that appeared on Lu Jin's face again, but he still couldn't forget Lu Jin's aggrieved look just now.

"What did Qin Huai say to you?" Qin Siyan was nervous and worried.

Qin Huai's mouth was too poisonous and he could say anything. He was worried that Qin Huai would say something unpleasant to Lu Jin.

Lu Jin stuffed a small puff into her mouth. When she heard Qin Siyan's question, she looked up at him and felt wronged for a moment: "He said that I was dating you for other reasons. I was obviously with you because I liked you."

Qin Siyan's heart still beat faster when he heard the girl's straightforward confession again.

"Don't pay attention to him." Qin Siyan said softly: "He is not important."

"Well, I won't pay any attention to him!" Lu Jin snorted arrogantly.

Looking at Lu Jin's arrogant look, Qin Siyan just thought it was cute.

As for Qin Huai, both of them tacitly stopped talking.

During dinner, Qin Ziqian tactfully stopped watching the fun. He clearly felt the coldness emanating from Qin Huai, so he tactfully chose not to provoke him.

Lu Jin naturally noticed Qin Huai's unfriendly look at her, but she ignored it calmly.

After dinner, Lu Jin and Qin Siyan left the old house. Even when leaving, Lu Jin noticed that Qin Huai was staring at her with an inquiring look.

Having offended someone today, Lu Jin has no intention of continuing along the Qinhuai route for the Guanzhou project.

However, what she didn't expect was that Qin Huai was even more boring and difficult than she had imagined.

_

"Mr. Lu, something went wrong with Guanzhou's project." Song Shuyang pushed open the office door and walked in, with a hint of anxiety on his face.

Lu Jin raised his eyes and looked at the people: "What's going on?"

"There was a problem with a batch of materials we sent. Shenghua Group was very dissatisfied and said they would hold us responsible."

Lu Jin frowned slightly and asked, "When were the materials delivered?"

"Last Friday," Song Shuyang replied. Worried that Lu Jin might implicate Si Lan, he continued to explain, "Zhou Lan only reported back to the company this Monday. The materials never passed through her hands."

Lu Jin naturally knew what Song Shuyang meant.

Although she got rid of Luo Anli, there is more than one Luo Anli in the purchasing department who is her uncle's person!

How could Lu Qingshan give up Guanzhou's project? Naturally, he would interfere and ask the old lady to take back the project.

"Didn't Shenghua Group report this matter directly to the head office?" Lu Jin asked.

Song Shuyang shook his head: "Not yet, but the other company asked us to come up with a perfect solution to this matter."

This surprised Lu Jin a little. Last time, she offended Qin Huai at the Qin family's old house, but this man didn't report the matter directly to the head office.

This was obviously to encourage her to take the initiative to find him.

"Bring back all the problematic materials and have Si Lan deliver the new ones." Lu Jin calmly instructed, "Also, make an appointment for me to meet with the president of Shenghua Group."

Song Shuyang nodded, turned around and left the office.

Soon, Song Shuyang knocked on the office door again and walked in.

"Mr. Lu, we've already made an appointment. Shenghua Group said that Mr. Qin is available at 7 o'clock tonight." Song Shuyang said.

Lu Jin nodded and motioned him to get busy.

The office door closed again. Lu Jin thought about the appointment he had made with Qin Siyan to go to the supermarket to buy food tonight, but it seemed they would have to do it tomorrow.

Picking up the phone, Lu Jin directly found Qin Siyan's number and dialed it. As soon as the call was connected, Qin Siyan answered the phone: "Xiao Jin, is there anything wrong?"

"Qin Siyan, I have work to discuss tonight. Can we not go to the supermarket tonight and go tomorrow?"

Qin Siyan was silent for a moment, then said softly: "Okay, then call me when you finish work and I will pick you up."

Seeing that Qin Siyan was not angry, Lu Jin did not think much about it. After hanging up the phone, he went back to work.

On the other side, after Qin Siyan hung up the phone, the gentle smile on his face completely disappeared.

Picking up his phone, he dialed a number directly. As soon as the call was connected, he instructed the person on the other end of the line, "Check Lu Jin's schedule tonight."

Lu Jin's working hours have been very fixed these days. In Qin Siyan's mind, Lu Jin's evening time should belong to him, but now it suddenly has to be divided up for work, which makes him feel extremely annoyed.

This irritation made him eager to finish this work so that her time could be his again.

Soon, Qin Siyan's phone rang.

"Mr. Qin, I've found out that Miss Lu will be meeting with Mr. Qin Huai tonight."

Qinhuai?

Qin Siyan frowned subconsciously, feeling extremely unhappy about the person Lu Jin was going to meet tonight.

Why should Qin Huai take up the time that originally belonged to him and Lu Jin?

"There were some problems with the project Ms. Lu was in charge of, and this project happened to intersect with Mr. Qin Huai's. The two met for this project."

"This project was originally managed by Lu Qingshan, but was later handed over to Ms. Lu. The project went awry because of someone at Lu Qingshan's branch office who tampered with it."

"I understand. Give me the address where they will meet tonight." Qin Siyan said and hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Qin Siyan sat on the sofa, leaning lazily against the back of the chair, with an unfathomable expression on his face and an incomprehensible light in his deep eyes.

In just a few days, he began to no longer be satisfied with the status quo. Even today, a sudden situation that shortened the time he and her spent together made him feel indescribably irritated and uneasy.

He wanted to be with her, all the time, every minute!

What good business could Qin Huai's crappy company have that would be worth his little Jin making a special trip!

-

Song Shuyang drove Lu Jin to the agreed private club.

The car stopped and Song Shuyang said, "Mr. Lu, I'll go park the car and go up with you."

"No, you can go home now." Lu Jin refused.

Qin Huai did not tell the head office about this matter, and it was obvious that he wanted to meet her.

There was no need for Song Shuyang to stay.

Seeing Lu Jin's insistence, Song Shuyang could only say, "Then if you need any help, feel free to call me."

Lu Jin nodded, then opened the car door and got out.

Led by the waiter, Lu Jin came to a private room.

The door opened and Lu Jin's eyes fell on Qin Huai who had already arrived.

He was sitting at the table with a set of tea sets in front of him. He was washing the tea leaves gracefully. When he heard the sound, he just raised his eyes and glanced at them before looking away.

Lu Jin walked in slowly and the waiter closed the door.

Qin Huai poured the tea into the cup, reached out and picked up the cup and placed it on the seat opposite. Then he looked up at Lu Jin standing next to him with a faint smile on his face: "Miss Lu, please sit down."

Lu Jin pulled out a chair and sat down, a businesslike smile on his face: "Boss Qin, regarding the batch of materials our company sent a few days ago, I have already--"

Before Lu Jin could finish his words, Qin Huai raised his hand and interrupted him.

"Ms. Lu, before we talk about work, I want to talk to you about other things first." Qin Huai said.

Lu Jin smiled, the smile on his face as harmless and innocent as ever. "Boss Qin, we don't seem to know each other very well. It's probably not time for us to discuss personal matters."

Qin Huai reached out and picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip, then put the cup down and looked at Lu Jin. His dark eyes were extremely oppressive, and his sharp eyes seemed to see through people.

"Guanzhou's project should be very important to you." Qin Huai said in a light tone.

Lu Jin's expression remained unchanged: "I have always been responsible for my work. Every project in the company is very important to me."

"That's right. If you don't work hard, it won't be easy to gain a foothold in the Lu family." Qin Huai nodded in agreement: "If Miss Lu messes up the Guanzhou project, it will probably be difficult for you to gain a foothold in the Lu family in the future, right?"

Without waiting for Lu Jin to speak, Qin Huai continued, "No, there's still Qin Siyan, the love-brained one. Miss Lu only needs to hold on to Qin Siyan's love-brain firmly, and the Lu family won't dare to drive Miss Lu away easily, right?"

Qin Huai's tone was light, as if he was chatting with someone about the weather, but his words were extremely aggressive.

Lu Jin met his scrutinizing gaze, the curve of his lips deepened, and the smile in his eyes deepened.

"Boss Qin is quite resourceful, able to find out so much information."

Lu Jin curled his lips and smiled perversely and wickedly, diluting the harmless aura on his body.

Qin Huai twitched the corners of his lips, and seeing Lu Jin's aura suddenly turn cold, the anger in his heart finally dissipated a little. He answered the question irrelevantly: "Miss Lu, what would Qin Siyan do if he knew that you didn't like him at all and had been using him from the beginning to the end?"
