Chapter 255: Qin Wushuang is in trouble
"Hmm?" Qin Wushuang heard something wrong in Aunt Bai's words. He lowered his head to adjust the cuffs of his sweater, and as he walked downstairs, he asked, "Did Xiao Song say anything to you?"
Aunt Bai followed him with a frown and said "hmm" with some embarrassment.
Qin Wushuang: "What did she say?"
"Eh..." Aunt Bai first sighed dejectedly, and then spoke hesitantly, telling Qin Wushuang every word of what Xie Zhaoyuan had said to her yesterday.
Qin Wushuang was not interested in the fact that she was scolded. He only cared about what Xie Zhaoyuan said.
Xie Zhaoyuan's temper has never been good, and the impulsive words he says when he's emotional are not at all nice to hear.
Although Qin Wushuang had long been accustomed to Xie Zhaoyuan's sharp words, when he heard with his own ears the words that Xie Zhaoyuan used to push him away, he couldn't help but feel the surge of emotions in his heart.
"Did she really say that?" He asked in a cold voice with a dark face.
Aunt Bai said with certainty: "Xiao Song really said that. If you don't believe me, you can go and check the surveillance camera in the room!"
"...I understand." Qin Wushuang's voice suddenly became a little depressed, and he didn't say anything more.
Aunt Bai followed closely behind him, comforting him with concern: "Mr. Qin, you don't have to be too depressed. Xiao Song has just been brought to your side, so it's normal for him to feel some resistance."
"You are so handsome and rich. As long as you are willing to take the time to treat Xiao Song well, I believe Xiao Song will be moved by you one day!"
Qin Wushuang paused for a moment as he was about to go downstairs when he heard this.
"Really? Will she really be moved by me?"
"Of course!" Aunt Bai said confidently, "I am also a woman, and I understand Xiao Song's thoughts best. Xiao Song just broke up with Pei Xingzhi, so she definitely doesn't want to accept you right away. Because it would seem that she doesn't care about the old relationship, and she needs some time to convince herself."
"I……"
“Buzz——”
“Buzz——”
The sudden vibration of the cell phone interrupted Aunt Bai's words.
Aunt Bai knew what was going on and shut up immediately, giving Qin Wushuang a quiet enough environment to answer the call.
Qin Wushuang took out his cell phone and just glanced at the caller's name on the screen, his sharp brows instantly tightened.
"You go down first."
Before the call, he said to Aunt Bai who was standing beside him.
Aunt Bai said "Hey" and immediately ran downstairs.
Qin Wushuang held the phone and waited for a few seconds. Only when Aunt Bai's footsteps disappeared in the stairwell did he answer the call.
"Hello."
"Boss Qin, something happened."
"What happened?" Qin Wushuang turned around and strode upstairs.
"Something went wrong with our new project!" The person on the other end of the line said anxiously, "Please call a video conference right away. If we delay any further, this will be disastrous!"
Qin Wushuang: "I understand."
He returned to the room, rushed to the computer desk, and immediately held an emergency video conference.
At 12:30 noon, Aunt Bai came upstairs on time to deliver lunch.
"Leave it there." Xie Zhaoyuan sat on the bed, and his tone of voice when speaking to Aunt Bai was much colder than before.
Aunt Bai put the food on the dining table for her, but seeing that she had no intention of coming to eat, she was not in a hurry to get out the bowl and chopsticks for her.
"Xiao Song." She looked at Xie Zhaoyuan's face and risked being scolded, saying, "Mr. Qin has been in a meeting in his room for the whole morning and hasn't eaten a single grain of rice until now. Do you want to send him some food?"
"…Why should I send it to him?" Xie Zhaoyuan glared at Aunt Bai, speechless, "Do I have a good relationship with Qin Wushuang? Why should I send it to him when he hasn't had his meal?"
"This..." Aunt Bai stammered and couldn't answer.
Xie Zhaoyuan rolled his eyes at her and said, "I even brought him food. I'll be thankful if he starves to death... Eh? What did you just say?"
Xie Zhaoyuan was halfway through his scolding when he suddenly realized the hidden information in Aunt Bai's words.
"You said Qin Wushuang has been in a meeting for the whole morning?"
"Yes." Aunt Bai frowned tightly, her face full of worry about Qin Wushuang, "After Mr. Qin came out of your room, he suddenly received a call. I don't know what the person on the other end of the phone said to him. Anyway, after he answered the phone, he rushed into the room for a meeting and has not come out until now."
"...How many hours has he been in the meeting?" Xie Zhaoyuan asked pretending to be calm.
Aunt Bai calculated the time: "Mr. Qin entered the room at 9:30 in the morning, and it has been more than four hours now."
"More than four hours..." Xie Zhaoyuan narrowed his eyes suspiciously, "It shouldn't take that long to hold a shareholders' meeting, right?"
"What shareholders' meeting?" Aunt Bai asked curiously.
"Nothing, I just said it casually." Xie Zhaoyuan said perfunctorily, "By the way, do you still remember how Qin Wushuang reacted when he received that call?"
"Reaction?" Aunt Bai held her head and thought carefully. "Mr. Qin didn't have any big reaction. He just looked a little gloomy and a little angry."
"Ah..." Xie Zhaoyuan raised his eyebrows and couldn't figure out anything.
"Xiao Song." Aunt Bai continued to persuade her, "Mr. Qin will listen to you. You can bring him some food after dinner."
"No." Xie Zhaoyuan got up from the bed, walked to the dining table lazily and sat down to eat.
"If he's hungry, he knows how to find food himself. I don't want to bring it to him."
Aunt Bai: "Mr. Qin is busy."
"Humph," Xie Zhaoyuan sneered, and said in a wicked tone: "Be busy, it would be best if you could keep him busy to death!"
"Xiao Song!" Aunt Bai was a little unhappy, "How can you...how can you say that about Mr. Qin?"
Xie Zhaoyuan glared at her impatiently: "I'm going to say this to him. If you say anything more, you'll die too!"
Aunt Bai: “…”
I’m old now and can’t bear to hear the word “death”, so I had to shut up reluctantly.
After dinner, Xie Zhaoyuan went back to bed and took a nap. When he woke up, it was almost four o'clock in the afternoon.
Qin Wushuang hasn't come out of the room yet.
Xie Zhaoyuan was immediately certain that he must have encountered some trouble.
But she would have to wait until she tried it out to find out what the specific matter was.
She turned over and got up, walking to Qin Wushuang's door in her slippers. Qin Wushuang said that she could enter his room at will, so she consciously did not knock on the door, but simply turned the doorknob and walked in swaggeringly.
Qin Wushuang was sitting in front of the computer without any headphones on his ears.
Xie Zhaoyuan took a glance, and his heart, which was filled with expectation, instantly became silent.
"Xiao Song?" Qin Wushuang was quite surprised to see Xie Zhaoyuan coming in. He stood up from the chair, put his hands on the table and looked at Xie Zhaoyuan with a smile: "Why are you here? Are you bored in the room?"
