Chapter 250 contains musk.
Qi Chenyan now knows about his hidden feelings for Yu Li!
Jiang Donglin stood up abruptly.
It was so abrupt that it even produced a dull dragging sound.
Qi Chenyan didn't ask what was wrong. Instead, he casually sat on the sofa opposite him, his long, jade-like hand resting on the armrest.
But his index finger, seemingly unintentionally, was tapping the armrest rhythmically, once or twice.
Just like the way he looked at us, his gaze was calm yet seemed to see right through a person's hidden impure thoughts, leaving them nowhere to hide.
After standing up, Jiang Donglin realized that his reaction had been too abrupt.
But since everyone had already stood up, Jiang Donglin had no choice but to bite the bullet and explain.
"Of course not. To be honest, Director Qi, the tour in Beijing has already ended, and the troupe has booked their tickets to Australia for tomorrow."
"I'm leaving tomorrow and won't be able to return to Beijing for a long time. How could there be any extraordinary events? My junior sister is just joking with me."
Qi Chenyan also stood up and slowly straightened his cuffs.
"Since Mr. Jiang is busy, I won't stay any longer. Xiao Chen, see him out."
The secretary stepped forward, smiled politely, and gestured for them to enter.
After leaving the government building, the driver noticed that Jiang Donglin was covered in sweat and asked curiously, "Mr. Jiang, is the heating in the government building that strong? Why are you covered in sweat and don't look too good?"
Jiang Donglin then came to his senses and wiped away his sweat.
After he got into the car, he glanced back at the government building.
"I hope I never have to come to a place like this again."
Jiang Donglin, who felt as if he had survived a calamity, no longer had any romantic or resentful thoughts.
Even if Yu Li suited his taste perfectly, he dared not have any other inappropriate thoughts.
Qi Chenyan is too clever, and with his power, if he really wanted to get rid of someone because of this, the other party would be powerless to fight back.
Fortunately, he didn't do anything else. In this way, he was ostensibly giving Jiang Donglin a warning, but in reality, he was implying that he was giving him a chance.
If Jiang Donglin were a smart man, he would have quickly stopped and left Beijing, and then this matter would have ended there.
If Jiang Donglin dares to have any other ideas, then what awaits him will be consequences he cannot bear.
Of course, Jiang Donglin is a smart man, and it is indeed not easy for him to be moved and interested. However, if he were to jeopardize his promising future because of this, it would be a loss.
Before Jiang Donglin could fully recover from the shock, someone called, deliberately walking right into the line of fire.
"Senior brother, you went to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to see Brother Shen Yan? Why didn't you tell me beforehand...?"
Before Tang Shi could finish speaking, Jiang Donglin immediately questioned her: "Tang Shi, didn't you know Yu Li before? Why didn't you mention when I asked you before that she was already married, and that her husband was Qi Chenyan?"
"Did you deliberately hide this from me? Why did you do this? Do you know that because of your concealment, I almost became a mistress and interfered in someone else's marriage?"
"What do you think Qi Chenyan called me over for? He's giving me a warning. If I dare to have any other thoughts about Yu Li again, my career will be over!"
Jiang Donglin used to think that Tang Shi had a strong family background, was beautiful, and had good violin skills, making her an easy colleague to get along with.
So, just like everyone else in the group, they took good care of her.
But he never expected that Tang Shi would trick him like this.
Tang Shi, on the other end of the phone, was startled when she heard that Qi Chenyan had contacted Jiang Donglin to warn him.
After all, it was indeed her who deliberately concealed it first. She just didn't expect that Qi Chenyan would meet with Jiang Donglin alone for such a small matter and personally reprimand him in his busy schedule.
"Senior brother, why do you think of me like that? I did meet Yu Li before, but we didn't have much contact, and we even had an unpleasant encounter."
"Besides, if I really did deliberately hide it from you, why would I do it? I'm so heartbroken. Do you really think of me as such a despicable person?"
As she spoke, Tang Shi burst into tears, feeling wronged.
Jiang Donglin will not break ties with Tang Shi because of this incident.
It's one thing that the two were fellow students, but more importantly, it's because Tang Shi had a father who was a high-ranking official at the ministerial level.
Qi Chenyan is not someone to be trifled with, and Minister Tang is naturally not someone to be trifled with either.
He could only sigh and soften his tone, saying, "That's not what I meant, Shishi. I'm sorry, I just blurted it out in a moment of panic. Don't mind it, I'm not blaming you."
"It was my own fault, without fully understanding the situation, that almost led to an irreparable mistake."
Tang Shi said on the surface that everything was fine, but her words were a test: "I know you didn't mean it that way, senior brother. I know how good you are to me, but if you think of me like this, won't Brother Shen Yan also have some misunderstanding about me?"
"Probably not. I haven't mentioned you, Shishi. Qi Chenyan only mentioned it briefly. You said I always seem to have a serendipitous encounter in different places."
Only after confirming that Jiang Donglin hadn't said she was deliberately concealing the fact that Yu Li's husband was Qi Chenyan did she breathe a sigh of relief.
"As you know, Brother Shen Yan is very busy with work. Even when he visits my father, he usually talks about work with him."
"I only mentioned it casually at the time to ease the atmosphere at the dinner table. I really didn't mean it. I didn't expect him to remember it. I'm sorry, senior, I've dragged you into this."
After exchanging a few more polite words with Jiang Donglin, Tang Shi, looking indignant and resentful, threw her phone onto the sofa after hanging up the phone.
"Why? Why is Yu Li so lucky?!"
When had Tang Shi ever seen it? Qi Chenyan wasted extra time and energy outside of work, and even went to warn Jiang Donglin to cut off his inappropriate feelings for Yu Li.
Originally, Tang Shi's plan was to have Jiang Donglin seduce Yu Li, so that Qi Chenyan could see with his own eyes what a promiscuous woman Yu Li was.
But in the end, not only did it not work out, it also affected her image in Jiang Donglin's eyes.
It's a classic case of trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead!
But it's strange, how did Qi Chenyan know about Jiang Donglin's feelings for Yu Li?
At this moment, Tang Shi was completely unaware of Yu Li's car accident the previous night.
*
Just before the end of the workday, Qi Chenyan finished his work and planned to stop by to buy his wife the donkey meat sandwiches she had been craving.
Just then, the police called, saying they had made a new discovery in Yu Li's car.
Qi Chenyan then went to the police station first.
"Director Qi, we found this perfume in Miss Yu's car. We tested all the items in the car, and only this perfume contained a slight hallucinogenic ingredient and a significant amount of musk."
