Chapter 349 It's best not to provoke him.
Qiao Xing paused, glanced down at the lunchbox, and thought back to last night...
Was he out buying groceries?
But Qiao Xing had no idea when he came back, let alone that he had been cooking in the kitchen all night.
She still softened her heart.
I opened the lunchbox and saw crab roe buns inside. They were made in several different shapes, like rabbits, cats, and dogs, and they looked quite realistic.
It's hard to imagine that this was made by someone who couldn't even tell the difference between sugar and salt.
She took out a crab roe bun, put it in her mouth, and took a bite.
It tastes exactly the same as the one downstairs in Shengli Community.
She glanced at the man driving again with suspicion.
What did you do last night?
"I've gone to learn how to make steamed buns."
Where did you learn it?
"The one you usually buy from."
Qiao Xing twitched the corner of his mouth. That shop was only open in the morning; they closed and went to bed around eight or nine o'clock at night.
How did he learn it?
The owner of that steamed bun shop has the right to speak on how he learned it.
I was sleeping soundly last night when I was suddenly woken up by a loud banging on the door. I thought a robber had broken in.
When I opened the door, I saw a man in a suit and tie standing at the door with a suitcase, who wanted to learn how to make steamed buns.
The boss thought he was crazy.
Then the man opened the box and poured out the cash, scattering it all over the floor.
The boss was so shocked he couldn't speak. He thought he was hallucinating because he wasn't fully awake, and he even slapped himself.
Finally, the boss respectfully invited the man inside and taught him how to make steamed buns all night.
After he left, the boss spent the whole night counting money in the room. He couldn't sleep even when it was dawn; it was too painful for him.
Of course, Qiao Xing didn't know any of this, and Qin Ce naturally didn't tell her either.
Qiao Xing finished eating the crab roe bun and was about to have a good talk with him when Qin Ce stopped the car.
"arrive."
The distance from the residential area to the company is not far, about ten minutes. Plus, he drove fast, and arrived at Weisheng precisely when Qiao Xing finished eating.
Qiao Xing glanced at him.
He was looking at her too.
Qiao Xing closed the box, remained silent for a while, and said, "Don't come to pick me up this afternoon. Think carefully about what I said."
“We are not from the same world. You may be able to fit into my world, but I can’t enter yours. It’s too far away from me.”
Qin Ce looked at her with a complicated expression. This time, he didn't interrupt but listened attentively until she finished speaking.
"Is it just because of this?"
Qiao Xing stared intently at him. "Wasn't this what you were thinking when you first hid your identity and got together with me?"
“From the very beginning, you didn’t marry me with the intention of walking together with me. You were always weighing the pros and cons, testing me, until, as you said, you dared not say it.”
"So even if you didn't marry me, but another girl, and you lived under the same roof, you would still feel the same way, and you would still develop feelings for her."
“I have never been the irreplaceable person; on the contrary, anyone can take my place.”
Having been deceived by Lin Yu for two years, Qiao Xing finally realized, when the mask was removed, that people could indeed disguise themselves flawlessly.
She was indeed quite easily frightened.
Having been abandoned before, she is afraid of being abandoned again. Therefore, she will retreat into her shell and become a coward before she anticipates being abandoned.
Pretend you are invincible so you won't get hurt.
Qin Ce rubbed his fingers on the steering wheel, not refuting her words.
After saying this, Qiao Xing opened the car door and got out.
Qin Ce stared at her back until she disappeared into the company building.
He closed his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose. Only then did his negative emotions fully surface, making him appear terrifyingly gloomy.
Upon arriving at S&C, some people immediately sensed something was amiss.
Han Yan watched him from afar, and even from such a distance, he could feel the chill emanating from the man.
"Mr. Han, what's wrong with him?" a colleague asked from the side.
Han Yan pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses and said inscrutably, "I don't know, but it's best not to provoke him."
The man thought for a moment and nodded. "Then what about the documents I need to sign?"
Han Yan glanced at him and said, "Go find the cannon fodder in your department."
His colleague suddenly realized what was going on and gave Han Yan an approving look.
Han Yan remained outside the door, seemingly hesitant about whether to go in and report.
Just as he was hesitating, he heard a man's furious voice coming from inside.
"Take your trash and get out of here!"
Along with the sound, a folder flew out, landed on the ground, and its contents spilled all over the floor.
Then, a female employee ran out crying.
"Close the door!"
The female employee went back crying and closed the door. Then she squatted on the ground, wiping away her tears while picking up the documents on the ground.
Han Yan clicked his tongue and looked at the female employee with pity, noticing that her name tag still said she was a team leader.
He squatted down and helped the female employee pick up her documents.
"Thank you, Mr. Han." The female employee wiped away her tears and thanked him with a nasal voice.
"You're welcome. Why did you cry after being scolded? Haven't you been scolded before?"
The female employee choked up and said, "You have no idea how he cursed at me."
"How did you curse?"
He said that if you sprinkle chaff on a keyboard, even a pig could root around better than us, and that we were trash, that even scrap collectors would find our work unlucky. But it's not that bad...
They even thoughtfully asked her if she was facing any difficulties at home, and that she had started working before her cerebellum was fully developed.
Han Yan couldn't help but chuckle, but seeing his female colleague's resentful look, he suppressed his laughter.
"Never mind." The female employee who had been complaining didn't want to say anything more. She picked up the messy documents, got up, and ran away crying.
Seeing this, Han Yan decided not to go in and risk getting into trouble.
He returned to his office and called Yang Han.
After the call connected, Han Yan got straight to the point, "Young Master Yang, if I may ask, is our CEO Qin having some trouble in his love life lately?"
"Huh? How did you know?"
"Because everyone in the company is in a state of panic right now, he came in early this morning like he'd swallowed a bomb, is there any need to guess?"
Yang Han blinked and clicked his tongue, "Looks like the truth can't be hidden forever, it's been exposed."
"Is that so? That makes things difficult."
Yang Han said again, "Don't panic, let me check first."
He hung up the phone and quickly called Qiao Xing to verify.
When Qiao Xing saw Yang Han's call, she was even angrier than when Qin Ce lied to her, and she hung up immediately.
This accomplice is a scoundrel! He even tricked her into thinking he was a garbage collector.
Yang Han was startled when she saw that her call had been disconnected.
"Holy crap, is it that serious?"
Undeterred, Yang Han called again, and finally, after Qiao Xing hung up on him four times, the call was finally answered.
