Extra 37
Xiao Song was overjoyed and repeatedly nodded and bowed to express his gratitude.
After the meeting, the next step is to expand the company's scale. Since she's going to do it, she might as well make it bigger and stronger, since she doesn't lack funds anyway.
They rented several empty offices next door, made a job posting, and asked Xiao Song to recruit people.
Qin Anning kept herself busy for half a month straight, so busy that she didn't have time to think about Fu Yin.
She didn't know where Fu Yin had gone, and no one told her. She didn't want to ask either.
Until that day, the receptionist delivered an invitation.
When Qin Anning opened it, she was surprised to find it was from her college roommate, but not the previous one; it was someone else.
It's not in Haishi, but in the neighboring city.
Qin Anning thought for a moment, picked up her phone and saw that the other party had indeed sent her a WeChat message, inviting her to the wedding.
She didn't want to go at first, but the invitations had already been sent, and she had a pretty good relationship with the people from her school days. After thinking about it, she figured she was pretty busy and didn't have much to do, so she agreed to go.
After giving instructions to Yang Jingyu, Qin Anning prepared to head off to the wedding.
Qin Man heard this and wanted to go too.
Qin Anning thought about it and agreed to go. It would be good for two people; at least they would have each other's company.
She drove to Anshi, and Qin Man chattered on and on, asking all sorts of questions, which annoyed Qin Anning to no end.
"Anning, isn't the bride beautiful?"
"Is the groom handsome? How much are you planning to give as a gift? Do they know you're rich?"
Qin Anning sighed, "If you're really too free, why don't you drive?"
Qin Man pouted, "Okay, I won't say anything more."
Qin Anning parked the car on the side of the road, turned to look at Qin Man, and said, "I've been driving for two hours, it's your turn!"
Qin Man looked miserable. "Oh dear, I'm wearing high heels, I can't drive. You drive."
Qin Anning got out of the car and went to the passenger side, opening the door. "Stop talking nonsense and get out and drive. I need to rest. I haven't slept much these past few days."
Qin Man noticed the dark circles under her eyes, thought for a moment, and then said, "Okay then."
Qin Anning hadn't been sleeping well lately. She was already overwhelmed with work during the day, and then she suffered from insomnia at night. She felt like she was about to collapse.
This is one of the reasons why she went to the wedding – to get away from the crowd and relax.
If I had known that heartbreak would have such a lasting impact, I would never have started a relationship in the first place.
Qin Anning thought about it and couldn't help but sigh.
There's no such thing as knowing beforehand. If there were, there wouldn't be so many regrets.
She leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes to rest.
With soothing music playing in the car and the swaying of the vehicle, she did indeed feel a bit sleepy.
In a daze, the car suddenly jolted.
Qin Anning suddenly opened her eyes and turned to look at Qin Man, "What's wrong?"
Qin Man smiled awkwardly, "Oh dear, I wasn't looking carefully and bumped into a car coming from the ramp."
Upon hearing this, Qin Anning looked up and saw a black Mercedes parked not far away, with a license plate from Chongqing.
She and Qin Man quickly drove downstairs, and people got out of the car over there as well. When they saw each other, they were all stunned.
"Cousin, cousin?" Qin Anning looked surprised and quickly walked towards Bai Lin.
Bai Lin smiled and walked towards her, "What, it's you guys?"
"Yes, I was wondering why the license plate looked so familiar. Cousin, what are you doing here?" Qin Anning asked happily.
Bai Lin said, "I was on my way to take care of some business and just happened to be on the highway when I ran into you here."
Qin Man's gaze shifted between the two men. She had met Bai Lin before, but only a few times.
She leaned closer and asked, "Anning, is he Bai Lin?"
Bai Lin turned to look at her and recognized her immediately. "It's me. You must be Qin Man. It's been years."
Qin Man grinned, "You actually still remember me? It seems like the last time we met was four years ago."
"Yes, what a coincidence! Where are you headed?"
Qin Man spoke first, "We're going to Anshi for a wedding, what about you?"
"What a coincidence, I'm also going to Anshi. By the way, were you alright just now?"
The three of them then remembered their business. Qin Anning glanced back at the car and saw that it only had a few scratches on the paint, nothing serious.
Qin Anning shook her head. "I'm fine. How about you? Are you alright?"
“No, since we’re both going to Anshi, let’s go together. It’s still more than three hours from here.”
Qin Anning naturally had no objections.
Bai Lin had the driver take the car away, and he would drive for the two of them. Qin Anning was extremely touched.
She turned her head to look at Bai Lin, "Cousin, you're so kind of you, you actually came to be our driver."
"Of course, it's on the way anyway."
Qin Anning suddenly felt a little guilty, thinking that he had finally found someone he liked, but it turned out to be a man, and he had even lied to him.
If he really has a problem with his sexual orientation, then he should know. If we keep it from him, will he never know his sexual orientation?
Thinking of this, Qin Anning couldn't help but say, "Cousin, there's something I need to tell you."
"What's up?"
"You know... my best friend, do you remember her?"
Bai Lin paused slightly, then smiled faintly, "I remember, what's wrong?"
"Don't get angry when I tell you this, no, don't overthink it. I believe you're perfectly normal."
Bai Lin frowned slightly, as if he had thought of something, then smiled helplessly, "I understand, you don't need to say anything more."
"Huh? You found out?"
"Isn't that Yang Jingyu?"
Qin Anning stared at him, wide-eyed, stammering for a long time before finally unable to speak, "You...you know? Then you..."
"Because when you came, my mom kept talking about those girls, so I had no choice but to resort to this."
Qin Anning's lips twitched. So the clown was herself.
"I knew it. Why did you ask me about my best friend the moment we met? You made me worry for nothing."
Qin Anning added, "By the way, don't tell Yang Jingyu about this, or he'll get angry again."
"Yes, I know."
Qin Man suddenly popped her head in, "What are you talking about? What happened to Yang Jingyu?"
Qin Anning shook her head, "Nothing."
"Tch." Qin Man shook her head, somewhat dissatisfied, but didn't ask any further questions.
With Bai Lin joining, Qin Anning was finally no longer so bored. At least Bai Lin wouldn't spout meaningless nonsense like Qin Man.
Three hours passed in a flash. Bai Lin dropped her off at the entrance of a residential area and then got out of the car.
"When are you going back? I'll come find you then."
Qin Anning thought for a moment, "Tomorrow or the day after at the latest. If you're busy, you don't need to wait for us."
"It's okay, I'll be staying here for three days too, then we can leave together."
"Okay, then come find us when you're done with your work."
