Chapter 186 Who is this older brother of yours?
Qin Ce returned after finishing his phone call, his expression quite serious.
He came to Qiao Xing's side, glanced at her IV drip bottle, and seeing that it was almost finished, he immediately replaced it with another one.
This is the last bottle, so there's no need to call the nurse.
"Well, why don't you go ahead and do your work? I can manage on my own here," Qiao Xing said.
After Qin Ce changed her dressing, he sat down next to her. "It's okay, I'm not busy."
Qiao Xing twitched the corner of his mouth. He had received so many calls; how could he not be busy?
But he didn't plan to leave, so Qiao Xing stopped trying to persuade him. "I'm just worried you'll be bored. Why don't you play some games or something?"
"I don't play games."
"...Then you watch dramas?"
"I don't watch dramas either."
Qiao Xing was stunned. "Then what are you looking at?"
"Look at the reports."
"..."
Qiao Xing suddenly realized that he wasn't bored; he was just a boring person.
Qiao Xing realized that she still didn't know what Qin Ce's hobbies and interests were.
She thought for a moment and asked, "Qin Ce, what are your hobbies?"
"No."
"Hey, I'm serious, you can't possibly have no hobbies at all, right? Don't you know what you like to do, or even if you have any favorite things?"
Qin Ce frowned and pondered for a moment, "Does making money count?"
"...Well, besides that, there are other things I enjoy doing outside of work."
Qin Ce thought for a moment, "Training?"
"This one is good, do you have any more?"
"there is none left."
He really is a boring person; she couldn't even please him.
She can't exercise anymore; she has to cook after get off work every day, so she doesn't have time to exercise with him.
Qiao Xing sighed.
Qin Ce stared at her for a while, his expression shifting slightly, and he pondered, "Let's watch a movie."
"ah?"
Qin Ce said, "I like watching movies."
Qiao Xing's eyes lit up. "Watching a movie? That's great! Let's go see a new movie when it comes out."
"good."
Qiao Xing grinned, finally finding a common topic. "I also like watching movies."
"Is that so?" Qin Ce also moved the corners of his mouth, raising a faint smile, though it wasn't very obvious.
But it was enough to make Qiao Xing lose his composure for a moment.
After the last bottle of IV fluid was finished, the two left the hospital. It was almost noon, so Qin Ce took her to a nearby restaurant for lunch.
When Qiao Xing finished eating and was about to go back, he suddenly received a message on his phone.
She picked it up and saw it was another money transfer notification?
"Who transferred six thousand yuan to me again?" Qiao Xing was a little suspicious. She read the text message carefully several times, but it wasn't from the company.
Before she could figure it out, the loan company manager called her.
Qiao Xing's brow twitched, and she subconsciously glanced at Qin Ce.
"I already paid the loan yesterday, why is he still calling?"
Qin Ce put his hands in his pockets and looked at her with a mysterious expression. "You'll know when you answer it."
Qiao Xing was silent for a moment before answering the phone, "Hello, Manager Yao, I already made the payment yesterday, and I will make the payment on time every month from now on."
"Oh, I know, Miss Qiao, I was just about to tell you about this. Oh, it's like this, you don't need to make any more payments. Yesterday's payment has already been refunded to you."
"Why?"
"Um... Our company has run into some trouble and is currently suspending all financial business, including clearing all previous loans, so we're sending this money back to you."
Qiao Xing blinked. Her first thought was that the manager was setting a trap for her. Would he ask her for even more money next time?
"Is what you said true? What about the money I borrowed from you?"
The manager hurriedly said, "You don't need to pay that back. Didn't we say we're settling accounts? Don't worry, the call was recorded. I assure you, we won't ask you for money again."
"Is...is that so?" Qiao Xing frowned, feeling that something was not right.
"Yes, yes, that's the main reason I called you. Miss Qiao, you understand now, right? I'll hang up now."
The manager's tone was different from before, even carrying a hint of ingratiation, leaving Qiao Xingyun completely confused.
Qiao Xing wanted to ask something more, but the other end of the phone hung up in a hurry.
She looked at Qin Ce blankly, "What do you mean by 'clearing the accounts'?"
Qin Ce said, "It's just an excuse. Their company is probably under investigation."
"They're investigating?"
"Perhaps?" Qin Ce's answer was ambiguous.
Qiao Xing became even more suspicious. Even so, they couldn't just take back all the money they had lent out and return all the money she had repaid.
Of course, it's also possible that she doesn't understand things like loans, and these might all be normal procedures.
"If that's really the case, then I just got 30,000 yuan for free?"
"Yes...that's true."
Qiao Xing was flattered and excitedly grabbed Qin Ce's hand, saying, "I'm so lucky! I've never won the lottery before!"
"But..." Qiao Xing thought of something else, "Won't they ask me for money again later?"
Qin Ce grabbed her hand and pulled her towards the parking lot. "He already told you to record it, so he definitely won't. Don't worry about keeping it."
"That's right, shall we go out for a big meal tonight?"
Qin Ce glanced at her with amusement, "It's good that you didn't have a big meal because you had a cold. Let's go next time."
"Uh, okay." Qiao Xing got into the car and fastened her seatbelt.
He's been driving this BMW a lot lately, and Qiao Xing has gotten used to it. Given his position in the company, he should be able to drive the company car whenever he wants, right?
While Qiao Xing was feeling fortunate, the microloan company over there was having a tough time.
Yang Xu and Yang Han were sitting in their lobby, and the company boss was standing in front of Yang Han with a fawning expression.
"Young Master Yang, please be lenient. We've done as you instructed. Please leave a way for us small companies to survive."
Yang Han crossed his legs and leaned back on the sofa like a lord, looking his boss up and down. "You've got some nerve, huh?"
The boss chuckled and said, "Young Master Yang, don't you know? Many microloan companies operate this way, and some are even more outrageous than us."
That's true. It's not easy to get a loan from a regular bank these days. The procedures are complicated, and sometimes you can spend a lot of time going through the whole process and still not get the loan.
But some people are short of money and have no choice but to turn to these small loan companies, where there are all sorts of tricks and schemes, as everyone knows.
Yang Han was naturally aware of this as well.
“Attorney Yang, what do you think?” Yang Han turned and asked.
The boss carefully wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. It was fortunate that the people he had hired hadn't made a move yet, otherwise things wouldn't have been so easy to talk to today.
Yang Xu laughed and said, "I'm just a lawyer, of course I'll listen to Young Master Yang."
Yang Han raised an eyebrow and glanced at the boss, "Will you still cause trouble for my sister-in-law in the future?"
"Oh my, Young Master Yang, how could I dare? How about I kneel down and kowtow to your sister-in-law?" The boss tried his best to show his attitude, fully demonstrating what it means to be flexible and adaptable.
"If I had known that Miss Qiao was your sister-in-law, I wouldn't have dared to ask her to repay the money even if you gave me ten times the courage. Let alone 50,000, I would have given her 500,000 without batting an eye!"
Yang Han was amused by his words, "Alright, since you didn't do anything, I'll let you off this time."
"Oh, Young Master Yang, you are truly a magnanimous person, with a heart as vast as a prime minister's. You are a living bodhisattva..."
"Alright, enough with the flattery."
The boss chuckled and said, "By the way, Young Master Yang, since Miss Qiao is now your sister-in-law, why would she come to a small company like ours to apply for a loan?"
"Who is this gentleman of yours?"
