He suddenly realized that Shen Ru's role should be more than just this. Since she had offered more benefits, he shouldn't blame him for asking for more later.
What Qiwei didn't know was that while he was still spending a lot of money on Jiang Yan's move, Luo Jinxiu, who had left early in the morning, had already met with Jiang Yan and Qin Yiheng. The three of them were sitting in an elegant and private room.
The conversation lasted for most of the day...
She sat in a single sofa, with Jiang Yan and Qin Yiheng sitting next to her.
"What do you want to talk about?" Qin Yiheng asked bluntly.
Back when Luo Jinxiu was still known as "Jinxiu," she and Jiang Yan had each other's contact information. This morning, Jiang Yan called her.
"Jiang Yan, now that you know my identity, I won't beat around the bush. I have some things I need to discuss with you. You can choose the place."
Jiang Yan naturally asked Qin Yiheng, and then they found a restaurant with a very nice private room.
"I think I've misunderstood you two." Luo Jinxiu held a teacup in her hand, unconsciously playing with it.
“I think so too. Who told you that?” Qin Yiheng leaned forward.
These words startled Luo Jinxiu.
After a long silence, she asked tentatively, with disbelief, "You suspected me a long time ago?"
Qin Yiheng remained noncommittal.
"From when?" Luo Jinxiu pressed.
Qin Yiheng's expression was a bit strange, as if he didn't want to talk, but the reason he didn't want to talk was thought-provoking, because there was a hint of reluctance in his eyes, which confused Luo Jinxiu.
Luo Jinxiu was a woman who had experienced a lot, and she considered herself quite good at reading people, so she didn't think she had misjudged him. Qin Yiheng maintained this attitude for more than ten seconds.
Finally, Jiang Yan said, "When we first met."
"Impossible!" Luo Jinxiu retorted instinctively without even thinking.
After she finished speaking, she fell silent again.
Did she reveal any flaws at that time?
It's really impossible. After all, the scalper next to her at the time believed that she must be naive and kept talking to her about buying a hotel room. How could Qin Yiheng be so sharp-eyed?
Moreover, when Jiang Yan suggested taking her home, Qin Yiheng did not object.
If you feel something's off about her, why keep her around...?
Luo Jinxiu's gaze towards Qin Yiheng suddenly became extremely wary.
This man is terrifying.
He did it on purpose. He noticed his mistake but didn't say anything. Instead, he played along, wanting to see what his true intentions were.
And what about myself? Taking advantage of Jiang Yan's absence, I seduced him, wanting to prove that he was nothing more than a wicked man who thought only with his lower body, a man who was lustful at the first sign of lust...
Luo Jinxiu remembered everything, one by one.
So what was Qin Yiheng thinking when he saw her extremely seductive performance?
Luo Jinxiu suddenly put her hand, which was holding the teacup, under the table. She clenched her fist so tightly that her nails almost drew blood from her palm.
"Let me give you some advice, Miss Luo. Next time you want to play an ordinary young girl, pay more attention to your eyes." Qin Yiheng said this calmly, but it was full of sarcasm.
Luo Jinxiu suddenly smiled.
Very well, this kind of Qin Yiheng does deserve to be called an "opponent".
It seems that her timely adjustment of strategy was correct. If she hadn't had this conversation, she wouldn't have known that Qin Yiheng was very smart, or that "smart" alone would be too much to describe. Such a person was indeed quite different from the results of her investigation.
"Most people wouldn't even notice my gaze, Qin Yiheng. How many more surprises do you have that I don't know about?" Luo Jinxiu stared at Qin Yiheng without any attempt to hide her feelings.
Qin Yiheng didn't reply, but instead asked, "So where did your misunderstanding of me come from? Because you think I killed Luo Yao?"
The connection between him and the Luo family is Luo Yao. Luo Yao's death is tantamount to slapping the Luo family in the face. They want to find someone to hold accountable, which Qin Yiheng can understand. But what he can't contact is why Luo Jinxiu thinks he is lecherous.
Luo Jinxiu scoffed, "What is Luo Yao anyway?"
The Luo family is more than twice the size of the Chu family. With so many members in the main family, the collateral branches appear increasingly insignificant.
Luo Yao was just a young master from a collateral branch of the family. Relying on his surname Luo and the power and influence of his family, he became a spoiled brat. There were too many people like him in the Luo family. He was famous for playing around with too many women and then he became incapable.
Luo Jinxiu had always looked down on this kind of person, and she would scoff whenever Luo Yao was mentioned.
"But it's somewhat related to him. Those people might have been biased during the investigation, so the information I received was a bit different," Luo Jinxiu explained simply.
Unfortunately, this explanation failed to convince herself, let alone Qin Yiheng.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. I can apologize for the misunderstanding before. I lied to you, but you've been playing along with my act, so you've also lied to me. How about we call it even?"
Luo Jinxiu is a very open-minded person. She can distinguish between what is important and what is not, so she changed the subject in time. She was not worried at all about losing face with Qin Yiheng.
"If we just want to even things out, we don't really need to meet, do we?" Qin Yiheng poured himself a glass of water.
The sun outside was blazing, unusually hot. Although the window screen in the private room was covered, the sunlight still streamed in, casting a faint golden glow on Qin Yiheng. When he moved unhurriedly, he appeared even more composed and confident.
Actually, it's very stressful to talk to someone like him.
Qin Yiheng's pressure is never overt, and you might not even feel it at first, but it gradually envelops you like a silkworm spinning its cocoon. If you're not careful, it's hard to escape.
Luo Jinxiu believed she would not be disturbed, and even if she was, she would be able to regain her senses in time.
But whether it was the high temperature or the man opposite her was really that charming, she found herself admiring him more and more.
Even if this sunshine foreshadows a storm!
"I want to cooperate with you," Luo Jinxiu readily agreed.
"Hmm?" Qin Yiheng raised an eyebrow.
Jiang Yan, who had been mostly silent, turned her head and gave Qin Yiheng a strange look, but only for a moment before looking away again.
Jiang Yan was genuinely puzzled. There were quite a few people who wanted to cooperate with Qin Yiheng, whether they were using him or genuinely cooperating, he didn't care about any of them. Even though his reputation as a divine doctor had spread and he could have made a fortune with his medical skills, he made it clear that he wouldn't accept any of them and had the Chu family handle it.
Why are you suddenly interested?
Luo Jinxiu noticed Jiang Yan's subtle actions.
