Chapter 252 Which husband is this?
Qiao Xing quickly grabbed her chopsticks and ate the noodles in big mouthfuls; she was indeed very hungry at this hour.
While she was eating her noodles, the phone opposite her kept broadcasting kill announcements. Qiao Xing looked at Qin Ce in surprise.
He leaned back in his chair, calmly operating her phone, and even managed to remind Qiao Xing, "Eat quickly."
Qiao Xing blinked and continued eating the noodles in her bowl.
She began to doubt herself: was she really just too stupid?
Why is everyone better than her? Even Lin Xi plays better than her.
Qiao Xing finished his noodles in a bad mood, and the game was over.
Qin Ce returned the phone to her, and when Qiao Xing looked at the score, she was surprised to find that he had actually tied her negative score and even surpassed her by several kills.
It went from zero bars and seven to ten bars and seven.
"Let's go," Qin Ce said, standing up.
Qiao Xing put her phone back in her pocket, followed him out of the restaurant, and took a car to the hotel.
Their annual meeting was held in a five-star hotel, where they booked a large hall that could accommodate over four hundred people.
However, Weisheng doesn't have that many employees, only about two hundred, but if you bring your family members, the number of people increases.
Zhang Xue was holding a tray at the door, and every employee who came in had to register. She was drowsy, but she instantly woke up when she saw Qiao Xing come in.
To be precise, it was when she saw the man next to Qiao Xing that her eyes widened like saucers.
Upon seeing his old friend, Qiao Xing took the initiative to greet her, "Xiao Xue, it's been so long since I've seen you."
Zhang Xue stared at Qin Ce in a daze, as if she hadn't heard Qiao Xing's words.
Qiao Xing picked up the pen, found his department on the list, signed his name and his family member's name, put the pen back on the tray in Zhang Xue's hand, and looked up to see Zhang Xue staring at Qin Ce with a look of astonishment on her face.
"Xiaoxue".
Zhang Xue suddenly snapped out of her daze. "Huh? Oh, you've signed it?"
"Yes, what are you looking at?"
"Um, um, he, he..." Zhang Xue was too excited to speak, "What's your relationship with him?"
Zhang Xue had met Qin Ce before. Before Qiao Xing went to the sales department, Zhang Xue fantasized about dating President Qin of S&C. She only met him once and never saw him again. She was heartbroken for a long time.
I never expected to see you here.
Qiao Xing glanced at Qin Ce beside him and instantly understood: Zhang Xue was a lovesick fool who couldn't resist handsome men.
She explained, "This is my husband."
With a clatter, the tray in Zhang Xue's hand fell to the ground, and several pens rolled away with it.
Zhang Xue stared at Qiao Xing in disbelief, a thousand words stuck in her throat, yet she didn't know where to begin.
Especially when she saw Qin Ce's warning look, her lips trembled, and she couldn't utter a single word for a long time.
Her heart was in turmoil, a complex mix of emotions.
I used to hear that Qiao Xing's husband was a poor guy who rode an electric scooter to work, but how did he become this person?
Then, as if possessed, Zhang Xue asked again, "Which one of your husbands is this?"
This question left Qiao Xing completely bewildered, even baffled. "I only have one husband, what do you mean by 'which husband'?"
"Ah..." Zhang Xue felt like she was dreaming, and even slapped herself, howling in pain.
Qiao Xing was completely baffled by her reaction. Even if Qin Ce was handsome, it shouldn't have made Zhang Xue so excited, right?
"Xiaoxue, are you alright?"
Zhang Xue hurriedly bent down to pick up the tray and pen, forcing a smile that looked more like a grimace. "It's nothing. Seeing your husband reminded me of my dead first love."
Qiao Xing was stunned for a moment, "Really? Really?"
"Really?" Zhang Xue burst into tears as she spoke. Ah, her crush was actually Qiao Xing's husband. She had suffered heartbreak once again.
"I'm so sorry, I made you sad." Qiao Xing saw how heartbroken she was crying and believed her.
I never expected Zhang Xue to have such a past.
"It's okay." Zhang Xue wiped away her tears and forced a smile. "It's all in the past."
"Alright then, don't be too sad, I'm going in first."
"Hmm..." Zhang Xue's gaze lingered on Qin Ce's face, looking at him with reluctance.
Only after they had walked far away did Zhang Xue belatedly realize what had happened.
Wait a minute, Qiao Xing's husband is the owner of S&C, how come I've never heard of him?
Qiao Xing had no idea what Zhang Xue was thinking. She led Qin Ce to the location of their department.
She spotted Bai Yi at a glance.
Qiao Xing wanted to greet Bai Yi after she arrived, but when she saw Bai Yi sitting in her seat making a phone call, she held back and pulled Qin Ce to sit down instead.
The hall was noisy; many family members had come, and some even brought children, making a lot of noise.
Qiao Xing took out his phone to start a game when he suddenly heard Bai Yi next to him say, "Yes, thank you, Mr. Wang."
The words "Mr. Wang" reached Qiao Xing's ears, and she subconsciously looked towards Bai Yi.
Bai Yi hung up the phone and turned around to meet Qiao Xing's gaze.
Qiao Xing forced a smile: "Team Leader Bai, you..."
She suddenly didn't know how to ask, after all, there are so many people in the world with the surname Wang, and Mr. Wang might not necessarily be Wang Ye.
Bai Yi probably guessed what she was going to ask and said, "Oh, I'll have your cousin help me pick up the child."
She spoke so frankly that Qiao Xing didn't dare to overthink it.
He could only laugh awkwardly and say, "How did you and my cousin become so close?"
Bai Yi laughed and said, "He keeps bothering me with debt collection every day, how could we not be familiar with each other?"
Bai Yi didn't hide her debts, which made Qiao Xing admire her even more. She felt that Bai Yi was a little too frank.
They are the complete opposites of Lily.
Bai Yi gave her the impression of being open and confident, never caring about other people's opinions, and never changing herself because of other people's opinions; she lived a very self-reliant life.
But the more she acted this way, the more curious Qiao Xing became about her; it seemed she had many other secrets.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Bai Yi asked, puzzled.
"No, it's nothing. I just didn't expect you to owe so much money."
Bai Yi's smile held a hint of bitterness. "Isn't this normal?"
"Yes, that's quite normal." She even took out a loan to buy a house before. "My cousin hasn't caused you any trouble, has he?"
"No, he's very good, much better than those debt collectors before. This must be his first time doing this kind of work, right?"
"Yes, it was his first time."
Bai Yi nodded: "He's not suited for this kind of work."
"right."
“I invited him to my house before, which scared him. He must have thought I was going to make some kind of deal with him. He hasn’t called me in the last two days.”
"..."
"So, you did it on purpose to scare him?"
Bai Yi smiled and said, "No, I was just teasing him."
As expected, I still know too little about Bai Yi.
"What if he really comes?"
"It's just in time. I can call the police, and I can finally have some peace and quiet for a few days."
Bai Yi spoke with an air of ease, but Qiao Xing knew that this was definitely not the first time she had done something like this.
