Chapter Twenty-Nine: "Embracing Both Beauties"

Before he could finish speaking, Su Xiao had already taken the tea grinder from the waiter.

She held the millstone in her left hand, and her movements were initially slightly hesitant.

But as the tea cake gradually turned into powder in the stone mill, his hand became more and more steady.

The tea is scooped into the cup with a teaspoon, and boiling water is poured over it at a high speed.

She flicked her wrist, and the silver whisk moved up and down in the cup.

The movements were fluid and smooth, without the slightest hesitation.

A layer of fine patterns floats on the surface of the cup; upon closer inspection, it turns out to be an impressionistic depiction of an orchid.

Xia Zhi's face drained of all color, and the rim of the cup left red marks on her fingertips.

She never expected that Su Xiao could actually do that with her left hand.

Su Xiao gently pushed the teacup in front of President Zhou, tapping the rim lightly with her fingertips: "I'm afraid I'll make a fool of myself."

On the weekend, Qing picked up her teacup and gazed at the lifelike orchids, marveling at their beauty.

"Miss Su, your hands are just as skillful."

Xia Zhi's attempt to steal a chicken backfired, and she ended up losing money instead.

He didn't look too good throughout.

The group chatted for a while longer, and when it was almost time, Su Xiao saw Zhou Moqing off.

Xia Zhi, who was behind her, gave her a gloomy look, then turned and went to the garage.

After saying goodbye to Zhou Moqing, Su Xiao called a ride-hailing service to go home.

She leaned against the car window, thinking about fanning herself.

Suddenly I caught a glimpse of a red Maserati parked not far away.

With the hood open, Qin Yun leaned against the car door and made a phone call.

She was already radiant, and the red color made her even more eye-catching.

Su Xiao hesitated for a few seconds before telling the driver to stop the car.

She opened the car door and waved to Qin Yun over there.

"Do you need any help?"

"Team Leader Su? You've come at the perfect time."

Qin Yun turned around and saw her, and was clearly stunned for a moment before curving her lips into a smile.

He said something into the phone, then looked down and hung up, walking towards Su Xiao.

"Could you give me a ride? My car broke down."

The evening breeze ruffled Qin Yun's curly hair, and her red dress shone like a leaping flame in the twilight.

Su Xiao glanced at the darkening sky and nodded.

"If Assistant Qin doesn't mind, of course."

Qin Yun's eyes lit up.

"Then I'll have to trouble you!"

She quickly sent a message to the driver and got into the car without any trouble.

"I need to go to Tinglan Villa up ahead, I don't know if it's on the way."

"On the way."

Su Xiao lowered her eyes.

The car was quiet for a moment.

Su Xiao leaned against the car window, feeling a little awkward being alone with "Xu Bozhou's marriage partner".

Qin Yun spoke first.

Her voice was pleasant, and her tone was familiar; she was very likeable.

"Is Team Leader Su going to Qin Yu's studio?"

"Um?"

Su Xiao paused, looking puzzled.

"What's your relationship with Qin Yu?"

“I am his sister.”

Qin Yun smiled frankly: "I've been abroad for the past two years and only came back last month."

Su Xiao was somewhat surprised; she simply couldn't comprehend the bright and flamboyant woman before her.

It connects to that junior brother who was always buried in piles of ancient books.

"Didn't expect that, did you?"

Qin Yun shrugged.

"But to be honest, I saw your 'Oriental Ink Charm' project in Milan. The water curtain design was particularly stunning."

When her professional field was mentioned, Su Xiao's tense nerves relaxed.

The two chatted about some professional topics.

Qin Yun's insights are unique and sharp, unlike those socialites who only rely on their families.

"Actually, I don't really like the job of acting special assistant."

Qin Yun gazed at the streetlights flashing past the window, her tone tinged with helplessness.

"My family wants me to have more contact with Xu Bozhou."

She turned her head and winked at Su Xiao.

"But I'm more interested in you."

"ah?"

Su Xiao was startled by her, her expression blank, which was strangely cute.

The car stopped downstairs at the villa, and Qin Yun unbuckled her seatbelt:

"Thank you for today. Let's go see the exhibition together sometime."

"Okay." Su Xiao nodded.

Before the words were finished, behind a floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor.

Xu Bozhou was standing in the shadows, holding his phone.

He had just finished a multinational conference, and his gaze unconsciously drifted downstairs.

Then I saw two familiar figures emerge from the car parked downstairs.

Qin Yun smiled and reached out to tidy Su Xiao's wind-blown hair, a gesture that was both familiar and affectionate.

Xu Bozhou's fingers slowly tightened around the phone.

He had originally planned to explain Qin Yun's situation to Su Xiao that evening.

But now it seems there was no need at all.

She not only didn't care who Qin Yun was, but she was even closer to Qin Yun than to him.

What a Qin family!

I thought they were here to cooperate, but they turned out to be here to steal my place.

Xu Bozhou stared intently at the car that was gradually driving away downstairs.

It's too sour.

He took out his phone and dialed Chen Huai's number, his voice turning cold:

"Transfer Qin Yun back to the Qin family branch company. Do it now."

Chen Huai on the other end of the phone was stunned:

"Sir, Meng Jin is still away on a business trip..."

"fine."

Xu Bozhou watched the car disappear completely outside the window, then hung up the phone with a dark expression.

The next day, Qin Yun not only didn't leave, but instead requested to be transferred to Su Xiao's department.

The woman got off the elevator, smiling and waving to Su Xiao.

"Xiaoxiao, good morning."

She had red lips and white teeth, and her black satin mini-skirt accentuated her slender waist.

Good morning.

Su Xiao had received the notification that Qin Yun was transferring to another group early in the morning, and when she saw her coming down, she couldn't help but smile.

"I asked Lin Xi to set up a workstation for you. It's a bit simple here, so please don't mind."

"How could that be?"

Qin Yun put her things aside and sat half-sitting on the armrest of Su Xiao's chair.

Her words were full of charm.

"I'm so happy to be able to work with you."

Just then, Lin Xi came to the other side of her to ask about the information.

When Xu Bozhou passed by, this was the scene of "embracing women on both sides".

Su Xiao sat in the middle, with Qin Yun very close to her, her hand on Su Xiao's shoulder.

Lin Xi leaned her head against hers and spoke softly.

Xu Bozhou squeezed the folder in his hand until it was deformed.

The intern assistant following behind him didn't dare to breathe loudly.

I was afraid that I might say something wrong and offend this person again.

The framework for the West Coast project is almost complete.

Su Xiao briefly arranged her work for the next day and then prepared to pack up and leave work.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Zhang Lei in the corner and felt inexplicably uneasy.

She said a few words to Lin Xi before leaving the house with peace of mind.

The fan surface was just finished being repaired last night.

Su Xiao took a break from her busy schedule and arranged to meet Xu An at the 4S store to look at cars.

But when he went downstairs, he ran into Xu Bozhou, who was tall and handsome, leaning against a stone pillar in the lobby.

He wore a flashy V-neck shirt today, with a long necklace extending from his collarbone.

The beautiful muscle lines were faintly visible inside the collar.

"Mr. Xu?"

Su Xiao couldn't help but frown and subtly took a half-step back.

Where is Xu An?

"Her car broke down."

Xu Bozhou calmly gestured with his chin toward the purple Rolls-Royce.

Through the lowered car window, Xu An was sitting in the back seat fiddling with his phone.

Chen Huai, standing to the side, simply couldn't bear to watch.

If it weren't for the boss's coercion and enticement of Xu An to bring the two of them along last night...

He actually believed his boss's nonsense.

"Alright."

Su Xiao glanced at Xu Bozhou and silently followed him into the car.

"Hey, Xiaoxiao, you're off work!"

When Xu An saw her arrive, he forgot all about playing on his phone.

He secretly slipped the divorce agreement into Su Xiao's bag.

"I got it back from the law firm for you. Tomorrow is Yan Mingshen's birthday, so you must give him a big surprise."

Don't worry.

Su Xiao smiled and leaned against her, finally feeling at ease.

"surprise?"

Xu Bozhou tilted his head behind him, his brows furrowing even deeper.

Even after Yan Mingshen treated her like that, she still remembered his birthday?

"Yes, what a surprise."

Su Xiao smiled mischievously.
