Chapter 686 Is he really angry?
"I heard that Mr. Qin is from Beijing, but grew up in Chongqing. I know that people from Chongqing tend to have stronger tastes. Why don't you try this dish and see if it suits your palate?"
Tan Yuwen placed the food on Qin Ce's plate, nervously observing his expression.
She thought that no matter how unapproachable Qin Ce was, he wouldn't be too distant from her in front of others.
To Tan Yuwen's surprise, Qin Ce remained unmoved. His gaze was fixed on the food on the plate, and his expression turned extremely ugly in an instant. The little bit of food that Tan Yuwen had picked up seemed to have become something extremely disgusting in his eyes.
This left Tan Yuwen feeling extremely embarrassed.
Tan Yongye picked up his wine glass to toast Han Yan, who casually brushed it off. Turning his gaze, he saw Tan Yuwen serving food to Qin Ce.
Han Yan chuckled inwardly. It seemed he had overestimated Tan Yuwen. He thought she was different from other women and would know her place, but who knew she would dare to get close to Qin Ce.
"Some thoughts seem a bit cheap if they're too obvious," Han Yan said with a half-smile, taking a sip of his drink. "Miss Tan, you may not know, but Qin Ce is a germaphobe. He dislikes nothing more than people putting food on his plate."
Tan Yuwen's face flushed red, her expression filled with embarrassment and awkwardness. "I'm sorry, Mr. Qin, I didn't know you..."
Seeing this, Tan Yongye said, "Yuwen, look how impolite you are! Hurry up and offer President Qin a toast to apologize!"
"Mr. Qin, I'm so sorry, I'll take this toast..."
"No need, I have other things to do. Please enjoy your meal."
Qin Ce got up and left immediately, instantly lowering the already strained atmosphere at the dinner table to freezing point.
Tan Yuwen wanted to explain something, but it was too late.
Han Yan then stood up and nodded slightly to the two of them, "Goodbye, Tan Yongye and Miss Tan."
As soon as Han Yan left, Tan Yuwen couldn't sit still anymore. "Dad, do you think Qin Ce is really angry?"
"No, Qin Ce has seen a lot in his life, he wouldn't get angry over something so trivial." Tan Yongye reassured her, "If he were really angry, he would have yelled at you just now, he wouldn't have acted like that."
Tan Yuwen was still worried, "What if he refuses to see me because of this?"
"Don't worry, he won't do that." Tan Yongye said confidently. "Why do you think Qin Ce chose our company? After I saw his products, I knew the problem. So, until this project is over, he will have to deal with our group. So don't worry, trust me."
When Han Yan came out, Qin Ce was waiting for the elevator.
He walked up to you, touched his nose, and said, "Alright, don't be angry. It's because you're so charming that everyone wants to get close to you."
Qin Ce's expression was indifferent. "No."
He simply dislikes self-righteous women. Qin Ce had already figured out Tan Yuwen's intentions during their first meeting.
He deliberately kept his distance, thinking that Tan Yuwen should be more self-aware than others, but in fact, he overestimated her.
"Alright, in a couple more days, you won't have anything to do here. Go back and be with your wife and kids. I'll handle everything else," Han Yan said.
The two had been waiting for the elevator for a while, but it still hadn't come up, and Qin Ce was starting to lose patience.
Han Yan also felt something was wrong and was thinking of contacting the hotel staff to see what was going on when Tan Yuwen's voice rang out behind him.
"President Qin!"
Tan Yuwen, wearing high heels, walked quickly to the two of them.
She was holding a coat, which Qin Ce had left in the private room earlier.
"Mr. Qin, you left your coat behind."
Qin Ce glanced at the clothes, stood still, and Han Yan, who was next to him, took them from him.
"Thank you, Miss Tan."
"You're welcome."
Tan Yuwen looked at the silent Qin Ce, pursed her lips, and said, "Mr. Qin, I'm really sorry about what happened earlier. If you don't mind, I'd like to invite you to dinner another day as an apology. Is that alright?"
bite--
The elevator doors opened just then, and Qin Ce turned and entered the elevator, saying to Tan Yuwen, "No need, I'm not interested in eating, thank you for your trouble, Miss Tan."
Such a direct rejection made Tan Yuwen feel a little embarrassed.
However, no matter how upset Tan Yuwen was, she could only force a smile and see Qin Ce and Han Yan off.
"President Qin, President Han, please take care."
After the elevator doors closed, Tan Yuwen let out a slump, feeling utterly exhausted.
She had thought that Qin Ce wouldn't be so easy to win over, but she never expected him to be so ruthless in both his words and actions.
In a way, Han Yan's status is similar to his. Although he is not the kind of person who is casual, he is very good at interpersonal relationships.
Regardless of whether they are of higher or lower status than him, whether he likes them or not, he will put on a good show whenever he interacts with them.
Qin Ce is the type who will say as little as possible, and if he can avoid saying anything, he will simply ignore you.
Of course, Tan Yuwen also knew that Qin Ce had more advantages than others.
Even so, she was still unwilling to give up. She came back from abroad specifically for Qin Ce.
She would not give up easily no matter what.
Tan Yuwen composed herself and turned around, only to see Shi Yi walking towards her.
She was somewhat surprised. "Miss Shi, what are you doing here?"
Shi Yi said with a smile, "I came here to eat with Peng, and what a coincidence that I ran into Miss Tan again."
"Yes, I haven't had time since I returned to China. I'll definitely take good care of Miss Shi when I have some free time."
Shi Yi said, "Great! I couldn't be happier."
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Tan Yuwen, who had other matters to attend to, said to Shi Yi, "Ms. Shi, I'll be leaving now."
"Okay, Miss Tan, take care."
Shi Yi didn't press the elevator button, but stood quietly at the elevator entrance, watching Tan Yuwen's back.
Tan Yuwen and Tan Yongye came out of the hotel. As soon as Tan Yuwen got into the car, Tan Yongye said, "Yuwen, you go back first. Dad still has some things to take care of."
"Okay, I'll head back now."
After watching Tan Yuwen's car drive away, Tan Yongye returned to the hotel.
He stood in the lobby on the first floor and looked around.
Finally, his gaze fell on the woman sitting on the sofa not far away.
Tan Yongye walked straight toward the woman.
When the woman saw Tan Yongye, she slowly stood up, smiled, and extended her hand, "Hello, Chairman Tan."
