Chapter 5 Owe More



When recalling this, Jiang Jingchu's car happened to be parked in front of the hotel.

Both of them looked a little ugly.

Jiang Jingchu, in particular, had intended to deliberately humiliate Qin Huan, but at this moment, looking at her pale face and unfocused eyes, he did not feel much better, but instead felt an indescribable irritation.

With a click, he unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car first. He then walked around the front of the car and opened her passenger door. He leaned against the door frame and spoke softly.

"You're not getting off the car yet, are you going to regret it?"

Qin Huan felt that since things had come to this point, they should go their separate ways. She didn't expect Jiang Jingchu to still have the time to ask her to have dinner with him.

Hearing this, he took a deep breath, and his teeth that were biting his lower lip slowly loosened, leaving a row of deep teeth marks on his lip.

When Jiang Jingchu saw this, his brows furrowed involuntarily. He licked his back teeth fiercely before moving his eyes away from her pink lips.

Jiang Jingchu has always been very picky about food.

When Qin Huan followed Jiang Jingchu, she had seen quite a bit of the world.

So as soon as you enter this high-end restaurant, it's as if you can hear the sound of RMB flowing out.

As expected, when Young Master Jiang glanced at the menu, he didn't even glance at the prices. He ordered randomly as if he was venting his anger.

Qin Huan wanted to remind him several times that the two of them couldn't eat so much, but when she thought that she was treating him to pay off his debt, she stopped.

While waiting for the food to be served, Qin Huan found an excuse and slipped into the bathroom to call Yi Yi.

Yi Yi asked Qin Huan in a soft and low voice why they couldn't video chat.

Qin Huan felt very guilty.

"Sorry, Mommy has something urgent to do today. I must video chat with Yiyi tomorrow, okay?"

After coaxing her for a long time, Yi Yi finally felt better.

Qin Huan breathed a sigh of relief and planned in her mind that she would find time to return to England after Zhou Tiantian's wedding.

I was thinking about something and didn't pay attention when I came out, so I bumped into someone.

Qin Huan covered her forehead, apologized and made amends, and when she looked up, she found that the other person was Jiang Jingchu.

In an instant, six of his seven souls were gone. How long had he been there? Did he hear what she said on the phone?

Jiang Jingchu naturally heard nothing.

He saw Qin Huan had been in the bathroom for a long time and didn't come out, so he thought of coming over to check on her. Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived, he saw her banging her head against his chest in a daze.

Thinking she was still upset about what he said in the car, I didn't ask any more questions.

The two of them had their own thoughts and had no taste for the meal.

When I finally went to the front desk to pay the bill, I was told that this was a membership-based system and the purchase had been automatically deducted from Jiang Jingchu's card.

Qin Huan looked at Jiang Jingchu suspiciously, and saw him scratching his brow with a nonchalant look on his face.

"Sorry, I forgot I'm a member. If you really mind, please treat me twice more later."

I don't want to owe others favors, but I end up owing more and more.

Qin Huan didn't like this feeling very much. She felt like there was an invisible thread constantly entwining her, pulling her towards an unknown place.

Jiang Jingchu hadn't had this nightmare for a long time. In the dream, he was trapped in a sea of blood.

He was terrified and cried out for help to Qin Huan at the top of his lungs. However, Qin Huan just looked at him with disgust from beginning to end. Before he was about to drown in the sea of blood, she took another man's hand and left heartlessly.

A loud thunder sounded, and Jiang Jingchu finally escaped from the nightmare. He sat up, with a large area of his back wet. After a long time, he picked up a bottle of medicine by the window, poured out a few pills, and swallowed them raw.

The bitterness in his heart was gradually suppressed by the bitter taste of the oral pills. Jiang Jingchu let out a long sigh, lay straight on his back, and could no longer fall asleep.

Gao Fei didn't understand why his boss suddenly canceled the cooperation with Zou's, and he didn't understand why he wanted to investigate Zou Shikai's private life.

As far as I can remember, Zou Shikai and his boss don't seem to have any private interactions.

He looked carefully at the stack of photos in his hand of Zou Shikai dating various women, and suddenly a string in his memory was moved.

No wonder he always felt familiar. Isn’t this Zou Shikai the person he met in the elevator of Hengfeng Jiayuan before?

Also, wasn't the woman next to him at that time the same woman that the boss specifically asked him to turn around and pick up last time?

After connecting all the memories together, Gao Fei's eyes behind the lenses narrowed slightly, as if he had discovered some incredible secret.

Without having time to think about it, he knocked on the door of the general manager's office with the thick stack of photos.

Jiang Jingchu was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and making a phone call. When he heard the office door open, he said "Come in" and continued talking to the person on the phone.

"Um."

"OK."

"You decide."

Gao Fei glanced at the man standing in front of him with his back to the light. His whole body seemed to be covered with a layer of light, outlining his heroic and upright figure.

There are not many people who can make Jiang Jingchu talk to him patiently like this. At least in his knowledge, there has only been such a woman around him in these years.

Ji Jingya, the daughter of the Ji family and the future wife of the general manager.

Gao Fei silently stepped forward and respectfully presented the photo to Jiang Jingchu, then stood quietly in front of the desk, his eyes on his nose and his nose on his heart.

Jiang Jingchu caught a glimpse of the stack of photos out of the corner of his eye, picked them up and looked through them while answering the phone.

The more he looked, the deeper his frown grew, and he thought to himself, is that woman Qin Huan dead?

Her boyfriend cheated on her so frequently right under her nose and she didn't even notice?

"Hey, Jingchu? Are you still listening?"

Ji Jingya looked at the screen of her mobile phone. It showed that she was on a call, but there had been no sound for a long time.

Jiang Jingchu then said "hmm".

"Let's have lunch tomorrow. Let's see what you want to eat. I'll ask Gao Fei to arrange it then."

"Yeah, okay."

After Ji Jingya responded, she gave a few more reminders like not to work too hard, and then hung up the phone.

Jiang Jingchu threw his phone onto the table in frustration, licked his lips, and tapped his bony fingers on the desk.

"Well, find a way to get these things to Qin Huan."

Gao Fei rolled his eyes. Although he already had a rough answer in his mind, he still had to ask to be on the safe side.

"Boss Jiang, who is the Qin Huan you're talking about?"

Jiang Jingchu made a "tsk" sound.

"The woman who took my car last time lives in the same residential complex where I sent her back. I don't know the exact address, so find out for yourself."

Qin Huan was in the company at the time and was a little confused when she received a call from the courier in the same city. She had not been back for long and couldn't imagine who would send her anything.

I politely asked the courier to leave it at the doorman and planned to pick it up when I got home.

During this period, Zou Shikai was very busy. Qin Huan contacted him several times, but he rejected her every time.

In order not to affect the progress, Qin Huan thought about it and took out her mobile phone to find the other party's WeChat. Her slender white fingertips tapped out a line of words on the screen.

"Mr. Zou, are you free today? I'd like to ask you to look at the renderings."

After sending it out, I added another one.

"It won't take you long, just an hour."

After waiting for a long time, Zou Shikai finally replied with a message.

Zou Shikai: I'm sorry, I'm really busy lately. I have a social event at Jinyun Pavilion tomorrow and can spare an hour. If Miss Qin doesn't mind, you can come over here to find me.

Finally, a specific time was agreed upon. Qin Huan breathed a sigh of relief and tidied up the things on the table.

When I came out, I just heard a few colleagues huddled together and whispering about something.

Qin Huan didn't want to listen more, but the words "Miss Ji" and "the one from the Jiang family" happened to reach her ears, and she paused slightly.

One of the colleagues noticed and winked at her.

"Team Leader Qin, our company has a very large customer."

Qin Huan looked at her suspiciously, and saw her pouting her lips and pointing in the direction of the director's office, lowering her voice and saying,

"Do you know Ji Jingya, the daughter of the Ji family? Come and consult us about the design of your wedding room."
