Chapter 27: Excellent in every way
After hearing this, Qin Li felt relieved.
"Oh, Xixi is still too young. She doesn't even understand that you can't put all your eggs in one basket. I don't know what kind of magic potion that kid from the Song family has fed her that she actually bet almost all her wealth on it."
He picked up the iPad next to him and read a few emails, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He ordered his assistant: "Get ready, I'm determined to win the North Suburbs project."
"Okay, President Daqin."
When Jian Xi returned to China, Qinli Company had just won the bid for the North Suburbs project.
Hot searches for various reports.
The media are building up momentum.
The whole bank rushed to congratulate.
At the charity dinner hosted by Sinan Group that night, Qin Li became the focus of almost everyone's attention, even overshadowing the host Jiang Wenbin.
"Mr. Jian is really generous. He was snatched away by his own uncle, but he was not angry at all." Jiang Wenbin came to Jian Xi with a glass of wine.
Jian Xi clinked glasses with him: "Didn't President Jiang also withdraw from that project? Speaking of which, President Daqin should be thanking you."
Jiang Wenbin was born with the face of a scumbag, and his cynical look revealed his coldness everywhere: "If President Jian doesn't like the project, then naturally I don't like it either. In this regard, our vision is quite compatible."
Song Yichen exchanged his wine glass with Jian Xi's: "Wife, you will like this taste better."
The red wine at the banquet was all the same. Song Yichen suddenly did this, either he was deliberately showing off his affection in front of Jiang Wenbin, or there was something wrong with Jian Xi's wine.
Jiang Wenbin would rather believe the latter.
His face darkened. "I will get to the bottom of this matter and give you an explanation."
He took Jian Xi's glass of wine and left.
Song Yichen was a little worried: "Wife, do you remember who approached you just now?"
Jian Xi has become accustomed to such occasions and is always vigilant, but some accidents are inevitable.
"The waiters, Mr. Zhao from Xinda, Mr. Li from Weilai... there are so many."
As the president of Chenxi, it was not surprising that she would become the target of social interaction and conversation every time she attended such occasions.
"How did you find out?" Jian Xi was more curious about this matter.
Song Yichen turned his head and whispered in her ear, "My sense of smell is very sensitive."
This is a secret that even the Song family doesn't know.
"Wife, am I awesome?"
Subtext: Praise me quickly.
So childish.
Jian Xi couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth. She just liked this kind of childishness.
“Yeah, it’s great!” She added, “Great in every way.”
Song Yichen inexplicably thought of the bowl of nourishing soup, and a train whirred past in his mind.
He turned around and found a place to sit, crossing his legs to hide his embarrassment.
Jian Xi saw through it but didn't say anything. He smiled and drank the wine in the glass.
In the dark, someone saw this scene and lowered his head to send a text message.
【It's done.】
Then he quickly deleted the text message and turned to leave the banquet hall.
Jiang Wenbin was very efficient and returned quickly, sitting next to Jian Xi and Song Yichen.
"A waiter drugged me. Qin Yan ordered it. I've got my people controlling me. It's Mr. Jian's decision how to deal with me."
Song Yichen regretted not hitting Qin Yan lightly that day: "My wife can't afford the gift she gave me, so I'll just give it back to her."
Seeing that Jian Xi didn't say anything, Jiang Wenbin nodded: "Okay, I'll do it."
It’s not that Jiang Wenbin and Jian Xi have a deep relationship, but mainly because causing trouble in his place is like standing over his head and shitting on him, which is what he can’t tolerate the most.
Qin Li was still taking Qin Yan to chat with various bosses, helping Qin Yan to become more familiar with people and expand her network, and the smile on his face never stopped.
Suddenly, the second son of Xinda Group invited Qin Yan to dance.
Qin Yan looked down upon this kind of rich second generation who had nothing but family background. Just as she was about to refuse, Qin Li agreed on her behalf.
"Yanyan, go ahead. This is the second son of the Xinda Group. You are about the same age. He doesn't rely on his family, but has made great achievements overseas. You can make friends with him and try to get along with him."
Qin Yan and Zhao Jihai's dance became the focus of the whole audience, which made Qin Yan's resistance gradually fade away and she learned to enjoy it.
"Miss Qin is very different from other girls from aristocratic families. She's not so pretentious and seems very real." Zhao Jihai knows how to say the right thing to say to the right person.
The unique way of chatting up easily brought him closer to Qin Yan.
Soon, the song ended, and Qin Yan changed from her previous coldness to become talkative and laughing.
"Have a glass of juice, Miss Qin. Girls' throats must be kept moist at all times." Zhao Jihai looked around and waved to the waiter.
Qin Yan drank half of a glass of orange juice, talked to Zhao Jihai for a while, and then turned to go to the bathroom.
Zhao Jihai looked at her back, licked his lower lip with the tip of his tongue, picked up the wine brought by the waiter next to him and drank it all, then left the banquet hall.
Jian Xi and Song Yichen were watching the fun the whole time.
"Jiang Wenbin's methods are quite vulgar." Jian Xi complained.
It's such an obvious beauty trap.
But because it was done so obviously, it didn't arouse people's vigilance.
Even the shrewd Qin Li didn't see what was going on and personally handed his daughter over to Zhao Jihai.
"ah!"
The waiter's scream kicked off the farce.
Many people rushed to the bathroom upon hearing the noise and ran into Qin Yan and Zhao Jihai.
The two were half-naked and it wasn't even over yet.
"Tsk tsk tsk! This is love at first sight. Young people are full of passion."
"At least go get a room. This... oh, this is so embarrassing."
"She's like a man in the bathroom... She grew up wild. Whoever marries a woman like that will be in trouble."
Qin Li's face turned pale and he yelled, "What are you doing! Stop it now!"
Zhao Jihai is capable but also a playboy. He changes girlfriends almost every month. Since he grew up abroad, he is very open about this and does not feel embarrassed.
"Boss Qin, it's not that I don't want to stop, it's your daughter who's clinging to me and won't let go."
Indeed, Qin Yan not only had her arms around Zhao Jihai's neck, but also her legs tightly wrapped around his waist, with an expression of great enjoyment.
"Oh my! How shameless! It's simply unbearable to watch."
"What are you still looking at here, you damned fool? What's there to see?"
"It's a shame that President Daqin is still trying so hard to pave the way for her. She's really useless and can't even be put on the stage."
Jian Xi and Song Yichen didn't even move. Just from the discussions of others, they could guess what the scene was like.
Good news doesn’t travel far, but bad news travels far and wide.
The four words #秦嫣放荡# became a hot search, and the photos of her and Zhao Jihai became props for countless otakus' fantasies.
"Dad, someone is trying to hurt me! It's Jian Xi! It must be her!" In the lounge, Qin Yan was wrapped in Qin Li's suit jacket, her makeup was smudged from crying.
Qin Li finally realized the crux of the matter and asked, "What exactly is going on? Yanyan, tell me honestly, why do you think Xixi harmed you?"
