Just because of the phrase "three generations of single heirs," Lin Shu risked an ectopic pregnancy to give birth to a daughter for Zhou Yanli. Yet, on their sixth wedding anniversary, she ...
Chapter 314 Playing Stupid
Zhou Shuang didn't suspect anything and walked towards the company after getting out of the car.
Qi Huaijing didn't call Du Yuqian back until Zhou Shuang disappeared.
"Huai Jing, why didn't you answer my call just now? Are you working? Are you very busy lately? I couldn't get through to you all night last night."
Du Yuqian bought a bunch of luxury bags, clothes, and shoes. While buying things for himself, he also used his 7-yuan credit card to buy him a suit.
The whole suit cost about 300,000 yuan. There is a clear brand logo on it.
Originally, Du Yuqian wanted to buy him a suit worth millions, but then she thought that the 20 million card should be the maintenance fee given to her by Qi Huaijing.
The money given to her was hers, and once she spent it, it was gone. She felt bad about it, but then she thought that they were all big brands anyway, and it didn't mean she had to give her a million to show her appreciation.
Although she never expected that Qi Huaijing would become the richest man in Rongcheng a few years after she left, when he was down and out, he had to wear cheap goods worth only a few dozen yuan, so giving him 300,000 yuan was not a small amount.
Thinking of this, Du Yuqian seemed to feel at ease again.
"I have a social engagement."
Du Yuqian thought about the news she had heard recently about Qi Huaijing's marriage. She wanted to ask but felt it was too abrupt.
"Oh, you can't sleep with me at night, is it inconvenient?"
Du Yuqian didn't ask that question tentatively in the end, because it would be bad to make the relationship clear.
If she knew that Qi Huaijing was married, she would become a real mistress. If she pretended not to know that she was dating him and then tried every means to snatch him away from that woman, then even if she got promoted, no one would gossip about her.
If Qi Huaijing really liked her, he would handle everything himself, including his current wife.
"yes."
Qi Huaijing's answer without any excuses made Du Yuqian not know what to do with the rest of the conversation.
She stayed for a while, then said awkwardly, "I don't have anything to do. Since it's inconvenient for you, forget it. I heard your company will have an ancient artifact exhibition in a few days, and I want to go see it too."
There seemed to be something flickering in Qi Huaijing's eyes.
"Go on the last day. All the items will be on display that day. Some are still on the way. First, the items won't be complete on the second day."
After getting his permission, Du Yuqian was so happy that her whole body was shaking.
Her mission this time is to find out everything related to the Qi Group's intangible cultural heritage, and she believes that this exhibition will be fruitful.
"No wonder you said you were busy with the exhibition. I won't bother you anymore, but I've been abroad for many years and I don't have any friends anymore. Huaijing, can you come and keep me company when you're free? I'm really lonely living here alone."
She bought a lot of sexy and emotional lingerie, and she believed that she would be able to use them in a few days.
If she could get pregnant before Qi Huaijing's wife, who was rumored to have not yet held a wedding, then she would have a better chance of success.
Qi Huaijing was silent for a few seconds. Du Yuqian heard that he seemed to be talking to someone and waited patiently.
"Well, if you're really bored, go shopping. I'm busy now."
He hung up the phone and habitually put a cigarette in his mouth.
"Mr. Qi, Miss Du has an appointment with Wang Jinwei tomorrow morning."
Qi Huaijing blew a smoke ring into the sky.
"Somewhere."
"The Victoria Hotel."
Oh--
Qi Huaijing held the cigarette between his fingers, looking indifferent.
In order to steal his business secrets, Wang Jinwei actually hired someone to investigate him thoroughly. He was even able to bring Du Yuqian, who was far away abroad, back to China. He is quite a figure.
He thought that Wang Jinwei must have checked Zhou Shuang as well, but it was just difficult to take action against Zhou Shuang.
"Starting tomorrow, we'll assign more people to watch over my wife, but we can't let her find out. We'll just protect her in secret."
Wang Jinwei was not a kind man. He originally wanted Du Yuqian to seduce him. He was probably attracted by Du Yuqian's figure and appearance and had lustful thoughts about her. It just so happened that Du Yuqian was used to spending money lavishly and had never suffered hardship. The two of them hit it off immediately.
Qi Huaijing's only regret was that he didn't see Du Yuqian's true character when he was young.
He suppressed a feeling of nausea, extinguished the cigarette in his hand, and with an indescribable fierceness in the corner of his eyes, asked Wang Yu to drive the car into the company's underground parking lot.
Zhou Shuang returned to her workstation and felt inexplicably excited when she thought about the exhibition in a few days.
When she opened the drawer, there was another pile of snacks inside. She remembered that when she first came, some of her colleagues stuffed snacks into her drawer.
At first everyone mistook her for Qi Huaijing's girlfriend, partly to flatter him, but later as they got to know each other better, they found out that they really liked her, so her drawer was always full.
Zhou Shuang felt a little embarrassed thinking about hiding her identity.
But if one day they really knew who she was, she would probably lose these friends.
but--
"Shuangshuang, are you going to the company exhibition?"
As soon as the news came out, someone came to ask her.
"Yeah, I'll go."
An ugly daughter-in-law will eventually have to meet her parents-in-law.
"Then we will go together."
Zhou Shuang looked at their smiling faces and felt troubled.
A few days later, Zhou Shuang picked out a red Ferrari from Qi Huaijing's garage. When Qi Huaijing saw it, he frowned.
"Driving yourself? Don't you want to reveal your identity?"
Qi Huaijing was still frightened by the last time she had a car accident.
"Let them get used to it first, let them guess that I might be a rich girl, and then switch to the role of Mrs. Qi. Wouldn't that make it easier for them to accept?"
Zhou Shuang was very thoughtful, and Qi Huaijing did not comment on her behavior.
This time, Zhou Shuang thought about it and decided not to bring Qi Luoyan with her because she was a big talker. If she let her go with him, she would probably tell all the colleagues in the company about her past within ten minutes.
Almost all of Qi's employees have cars, and there was a constant stream of vehicles at the entrance of the exhibition hall. Colleagues from the game department agreed to wait at the door for everyone to gather before going in together.
Ten minutes to nine in the morning, at the entrance of the exhibition hall, all the colleagues had arrived, except Zhou Shuang.
While everyone was waiting, a Ferrari, as dazzling red as fire, drove steadily forward.
When the car stopped, the woman in the car had skin as dazzling as white porcelain, which was more dazzling than the sun itself. Her fluffy black curly hair formed a sharp contrast with her red lips.
Especially her high-end knee-length white dress paired with sunglasses, she looks both beautiful and cool.
When the sunglasses were removed, someone almost lost their voice: "Zhou Shuang?"
"No way, it's Zhou Shuang, am I dazzled?"
Zhou Shuang asked the parking guy to park her car, and she slowly came into public view. Her colleagues in the game department were all stunned.
"You really are Zhou Shuang."
Zhou Shuang nodded: "Yeah."
"Did you win the lottery, or find a very rich boyfriend?"
Someone said it directly.
Zhou Shuang did not hide it from them: "Didn't I tell you last time that I'm married?"
The others looked at each other. Zhou Shuang did say that, but didn’t someone say that a middle-aged man was seen sending her here at the company gate?
At that time, Chen Yunna was still in the company and the news was spreading everywhere.
"Shuangshuang, is it really that old man?"
This sentence almost made Zhou Shuang burst out laughing.
She knew they weren't as gossipy as the others, nor did they want to make fun of her.
"No, my husband is not an old man, but he is indeed older than me."
I'm almost 30, so I shouldn't be considered old.
I wonder how Qi Huaijing would react when he heard this.
"Who is he? What does he do? Is he handsome?"
The series of questions almost made Zhou Shuang breathless.
She didn't answer them in a mysterious way.
But since they hadn't seen the real person, everyone was still half skeptical.
After entering the exhibition hall, his curiosity about Zhou Shuang was gradually diverted by the ancient artifacts.
Qi Huaijing's ancient document art exhibition is on the third floor of the exhibition hall. All the items on display are Chinese treasures. Most of them are incomplete and waiting to be restored. A small number of them are rare treasures that have been restored by some famous experts.
There are antique vases, ancient paintings, jewelry, and all kinds of things.
Zhou Shuang was slightly stunned when she saw an ancient jade hairpin at the exhibition.
She recognized the hairpin. Many years ago, an anonymous businessman asked her to help repair it. At that time, out of interest, she only charged her two million yuan.
I didn’t expect this hairpin to appear here. It was a hair ornament of a concubine during the Han and Tang Dynasties and is extremely precious.
Everyone was appreciating it carefully. The ancients had ingenious ideas many years ago, but there was a commotion at the entrance.
"Sorry, only ticket holders are allowed to enter here. No outsiders are allowed to enter casually."
At the door, a woman dressed sexy and enchanting, accompanied by five bodyguards in black, walked in arrogantly.
She only had one ticket in her hand, and the bodyguard behind her was stopped by security personnel.
"I always bring bodyguards with me wherever I go, so why can't I do that? If something happens, will you be held responsible?"
The woman was arrogant and held her head high when talking to the security guard, with a look of disdain.
"I'm sorry ma'am, the bodyguards can't come in."
The security guard refused to budge, and the woman stood with her hands behind her back, looking very cold and arrogant.
"What if I say I'm Mr. Qi's wife? Can't I even enter my own exhibition hall?"
Everyone looked at the woman, including Zhou Shuang.
Mrs. Qi? "This woman looks so familiar. I think I saw her when we were shopping at the mall the other day."
"Really? It seems like she used Mr. Qi's card. Is she really Mrs. Qi?"
Zhou Shuang frowned slightly, Mrs. Qi?
Swipe card?
Zhou Shuang didn't think she had heard it wrong. It's okay to be wrong once, but it's impossible for a person to be wrong twice in a row.
"Even if Mr. Qi comes here himself, he can only enter with a ticket. Sorry, if you really have anything to say, please talk to Mr. Qi yourself."
The security guards didn't buy it at all. If they wanted to buy it, Qi Huaijing would have to call or show up in person to explain it.
Du Yuqian wanted to cheat, but everyone was looking at her. She called Qi Huaijing, but the line was busy and she couldn't get through.
In desperation, she could only give up.
The bodyguards were stopped outside, and Du Yuqian wandered around alone. Zhou Shuang glanced at her a few times and then stopped paying attention to her.
This woman was indeed very beautiful, but Zhou Shuang didn't think Qi Huaijing would be interested in her.
How to say it, it’s not that Zhou Shuang is confident in herself, she always feels that this woman gives her a weird feeling, like a spoiled and overbearing young lady who has no sense of propriety at all.
Qi Huaijing is a calm and reserved man. Not only him, but even the rich second generation with a slightly better financial background would not marry such a woman home.
If it's just for fun...
Zhou Shuang's body trembled. This was the first time for her and Qi Huaijing. Qi Huaijing told her that he also gave her his first time.
Should she believe it?
But it is said that there is no cat in the world that doesn't steal fish.
Zhou Shuang's mind was in a mess.
Those colleagues began to criticize Du Yuqian.
"Is this really Mrs. Qi? Your behavior today is really degrading."
"Yeah, it's her own exhibition hall, why would she bring bodyguards? Is she afraid that no one will know her identity?"
"Based on my experience, I'm afraid this isn't the principal wife."
Zhou Shuang's whole body shook, and she looked at the colleague who kept making "tsk tsk" sounds with a stiff expression.
"What did you say?"
"How could the real Mrs. Qi do such a thing? Moreover, she would definitely be accompanied by President Qi himself. This must have been secretly kept outside by President Qi, and it's very likely intentional. Didn't you see someone filming it with a camera just now?"
The young people were confused, but the older ones understood it as soon as they heard it.
"Isn't that a provocation to the real Mrs. Qi? Mr. Qi and Mrs. Qi haven't even had their wedding yet."
"Hey, it's the world of the rich, who knows."
The more Zhou Shuang listened, the more uncomfortable she felt. Could Qi Huaijing be such a person?
"Forget it, let's continue to look at the exhibition. This is not something we can control."
There was a little incident, but it didn't affect my mood.
The only one who was distracted was Zhou Shuang. For some reason, Zhou Shuang felt very uncomfortable looking at Du Yuqian. Even when she was clearly provoking Chen Yunna, she had never felt so uncomfortable.
It was as if he had seen something going on between Qi Huaijing and this woman.
Du Yuqian originally thought that her self-made identity would make others speak up for her, but it turned out to be just as she thought. When the bodyguards retreated outside and she was alone, no one even looked at her.
The security guards didn't take her words seriously. Du Yuqian was embarrassed and was extremely unhappy with her bag.
But she soon remembered the purpose of her trip: she came here to take pictures.
These things are also what Wang Jinwei wants. Wang Jinwei and Qi Huaijing have been business rivals for many years, and he can't get into this place at all.
Du Yuqian originally wanted to use Mrs. Qi's identity to get things done, but she was rejected. She had to take pictures secretly with her mobile phone, but she was still discovered.
"I'm sorry, ma'am, the exhibition hall is only for viewing, not taking photos."
The staff's voice once again attracted everyone's attention. Du Yuqian blushed and argued, "It was originally for everyone to see. I think it's very good, and I can't take it back. What's wrong with taking two photos?"
She kept talking big, but the staff didn't tolerate her.
"Everyone will be given a copy of the exhibition regulations when entering the exhibition hall. It clearly states that photography is prohibited. Please delete the photos you just took immediately under our supervision."
Du Yuqian refused. She was not afraid of being told to Qi Huaijing, as she had her own excuse.
It was just a few photos, Qi Huaijing wouldn't suspect that she was here to steal information.
"What if I don't delete it? What do you want to do to me? If you have the guts, have Mr. Qi come and tell me."
