Su Li was his kept woman for four years. During the day, she was a dedicated secretary, and at night, she was his affectionate 'partner.'
One day, rumors spread within their circle th...
Qiaoxiang Pavilion – the most famous restaurant in Haicheng.
Inside the private room, Song Wan, dressed in a fitted cheongsam, was taking orders from the waiter with graceful posture.
"Okay, that's all. Remember, don't make it too spicy; he doesn't like it too spicy. Also, don't cook the vegetables too soft; he likes them a little chewy..."
Chen Qi hurried in from outside, saw her talking, and then stood silently to the side waiting.
Song Wan glanced at him, then handed the menu to the waiter, "Go and prepare first, and serve the food when the waiter arrives."
"OK."
She looked at Chen Qi, "Didn't I tell you to go and call Master Quan? Has he arrived?"
"Mr. Quan said he was too busy to come tonight, but he sent a gift over."
"Knock knock—" At this moment, the door to the private room was gently knocked on.
"Come in."
A waiter approached with a bouquet of flowers. "Miss Song, this is a gift from Mr. Quan."
Song Wan saw the flowers and gifts but couldn't see anyone, and the light on her face vanished instantly.
The waiter helped her open the box, inside which was a set of valuable jewelry.
Chen Qi asked the waiter to leave first, then looked at her and said, "Miss, Mr. Quan is just too busy to come, please don't think too much about it."
"Busy? Every time I ask him out for dinner, he says he's busy. I even went to his company to find him in person, and he was still busy. When will he ever stop being so busy?!"
She angrily swept the bouquet to the ground, wishing she could overturn the table.
"If Master Quan saw how you treated the gifts he gave me, he wouldn't feel good."
"It's fine if he sees it, but since he's not even showing up, why would I care about this!"
Chen Qi said, "Look at this gift, isn't it beautiful?"
Song Wan grabbed the jewelry box, intending to throw it away, but then couldn't bring herself to do it.
"I've done so much, surely he can't see my intentions?"
"Sooner or later, Master Quan will realize your true feelings."
"hehe."
She sneered, poured herself a glass of wine, and drank it all in one gulp.
Chen Qi couldn't bear to see it, so he stepped forward and took the bottle from him, saying, "Let me pour it for you."
"I will never give up so easily!"
Quan's Group.
Quan Ye sat in the leather chair, gazing absently at the bustling traffic outside the window.
Sitting at this vantage point, one can take in the entire city of Haicheng, and everything will grovel at his feet.
"Master Quan, something terrible has happened."
Xu Ming hurriedly walked in from outside, looking anxious.
"What's up?"
"Miss Su, she..."
"I heard that Su Li's uncle fell from the building and was rushed to the hospital. His condition must be quite serious. How could a perfectly healthy person fall from a building like that? It's really strange."
The office door was pushed open, and Song Wan, who smelled slightly of alcohol, walked in.
She was wearing high heels, her steps were a little unsteady, but her eyes were very clear.
Quan Ye frowned. "What are you doing here?"
"You say you're busy, then I'll come find you in person."
Quan Ye ignored her and looked at Xu Ming, asking, "What were you about to say?"
Just as Xu Ming was about to speak, Song Wan spoke up first, "Assistant Xu, you don't mean to suggest that Master Quan go to the hospital to accompany Miss Su to see her uncle, do you? What kind of person is Master Quan? Why would he need to do such a thing?"
Xu Ming hesitated to speak, but Song Wan kept interrupting him.
"Assistant Xu, you can go out now. I need to say a few words to Master Quan."
Xu Ming was ruthlessly driven away.
She moved closer to Quan Ye and gently put her arm around his shoulder. "Ah Ye, are you tired? Let me massage your shoulders."
