Chapter 490 I and Eleven Others Fight for My Lover 10
Qi Sichen waited until Shen Xinran hung up the phone before speaking: "You are so beautiful, and your mother is still urging you to go on a blind date?"
Shen Xinran sighed and said, "According to my mom, there's no need to rush into marriage, but you need to find a few more boyfriends, because the chances of finding a good man are like looking for a needle in a haystack."
Qi Sichen's mouth twitched uncontrollably. "Your mother's ideas are quite—quite avant-garde."
Shen Xinran smiled and said, "Yes, my mother wore suspenders and high heels when I was a child. I only saw this kind of clothes on my mother at that time."
Qi Sichen asked again: "Then what are your requirements for the future half?"
After a moment of contemplation, Chen Xinran said, "I don't have any requirements on appearance, but I have to like her. It's better if she's considerate. I don't like to take care of others, I like others to take care of me."
Qi Sichen removed the tiny bones from the fish one by one, placed them on Shen Xinran's plate, and said with a smile, "This steamed fish tastes good. You can eat more."
Shen Xinran nodded and said as he ate, "Thank you. Actually, I've always liked eating fish, but picking out the bones is too troublesome."
Qi Sichen blurted out subconsciously: "It's okay, I can help you find faults in the future."
Upon hearing this, Shen Xinran couldn't help but look up and looked at Qi Sichen with a surprised and complicated look.
Qi Sichen pondered for a moment and added, "Didn't I say before that I would treat you to another meal? I meant that I could help you find fault next time."
Shen Xinran heard Qi Sichen's relaxed and natural tone, then nodded and concentrated on eating.
…
In the evening, Shen Xinran returned home from get off work and ordered a takeout. She enjoyed the food while relaxing and watching TV.
After dinner, I was about to go downstairs to throw away the trash when the phone rang urgently.
Manager Sun’s anxious voice came from the other end of the phone, “Secretary Shen, I have a document here that needs Mr. Qi’s signature urgently.”
Shen Xinran frowned and said, "Let me call Mr. Qi and ask first."
The manager sighed and said, "It's no use. Mr. Qi's phone number is always disconnected at night. Do you know where Mr. Qi lives?"
Shen Xinran replied: "I know."
Manager Sun covered his phone and lowered his voice, "Could you please deliver the documents for me? I'm with a client and can't leave."
Shen Xinran hesitated for a moment, "But it's dark now, and..."
Manager Sun pleaded, "I've been working on this contract for over six months, and the client has finally agreed. If we don't finalize it today, I'm afraid they'll change their mind."
Shen Xinran could only agree, "Okay then, where are you now? I'll come over to get the contract first."
Manager Sun smiled and said, "I'll wait for you at the World Financial Center."
Shen Xinran arrived at the World Financial Center first. Manager Sun was already waiting at the door. When he saw Shen Xinran coming, he came up to her and handed her a contract.
There was a grateful smile on his face, “Secretary Shen, thank you so much, the client is still waiting upstairs, I will go upstairs first.”
Shen Xinran nodded, took the contract, and drove to Lanwan Villa District.
Shen Xinran stood at the door of Villa B and rang the doorbell.
After waiting for about five minutes, an old man came over. He asked Shen Xinran through the iron gate, "Who are you?"
Shen Xinran smiled faintly and said, "I'm President Qi's secretary. There's an urgent contract that needs President Qi's signature, so I brought it here specially for him."
The old man frowned, "But the master is asleep now."
Shen Xinran quickly explained: "Manager Sun said that this contract is very important. If it can't be finalized today, the client is likely to change his mind."
The old butler shook his head and said firmly, "The master doesn't like to be disturbed after he falls asleep. You should come back tomorrow."
Shen Xinran frowned, feeling strange.
But just as she was about to turn around and leave, there was a sudden commotion in the villa, followed by a loud shout: "Oh no, the master ran away."
The old man's face changed and he shouted to the inside of the villa: "Quickly stop the gentleman."
Shen Xinran peeked inside through the gap in the iron gate and saw Qi Sichen running out in disheveled clothes, with a group of men in black chasing him closely.
When his eyes met hers, he seemed to be frozen in place by some force, his eyes filled with deep and intense emotions.
At that moment, all the noise and chaos seemed to disappear, leaving only him and her.
His voice was filled with anxiety and concern as he called out to her, "Wanrong, run!"
When Shen Xinran heard the word "Wanrong", her heart trembled uncontrollably. She grabbed the iron gate, wanting to hear more clearly, but the group of men in black had already grabbed her arms and dragged her back.
Shen Xinran slammed the iron door, anxiously asking, "What are you doing? Let him go!"
The old man's voice sounded again, "Miss, you should go back first. It's not convenient for the gentleman to see guests now."
Shen Xinran's eyes were red, "Why is it inconvenient? I just saw him!"
The old man put his hands behind his back and said in a deep voice: "Miss, you are mistaken."
After saying that, he turned and left, and no matter how Shen Xinran banged on the iron gate, he did not look back.
Shen Xinran stood outside the door, her heart filled with helplessness and despair. He had just called her Wanrong. Was it him?
After Shen Xinran returned home, he locked himself in the room and desperately called the system's name, wanting to ask the system what was going on.
But she shouted all night long, but the system didn't respond, as if it had completely disappeared.
The next day, Shen Xinran arrived at the company early in the morning. She wanted to question Qi Sichen after seeing him.
But when she saw Qi Sichen coming over, her tone became cautious, "Mr. Qi, do you know Chen Wanrong?"
Qi Sichen looked confused. "Who is Chen Wanrong? Is she your friend?"
At this moment, Shen Xinran felt as if she had lost all hope. Could it be that she had misheard? But how could she have misheard? He clearly called her Wanrong.
Qi Sichen smiled and said, "I sometimes sleepwalk. I hope you weren't scared when you delivered the documents to me last night."
Shen Xinran shook his head and said with a stiff smile: "No."
After Shen Xinran finished speaking, she suddenly remembered something, picked up her bag and rushed out.
A male colleague was surprised, "Secretary Shen, it's almost time to go to work, where are you going?"
Qi Sichen looked at Shen Xinran's leaving back, his eyes suppressing an inexplicable emotion, "It's okay, let her go."
Shen Xinran arrived at Jiang Tong's house, went straight to Jiang Tong's room, and pulled her out of bed, "I want to ask you, do you have Ethan's contact information!"
Jiang Tong sat on the bed, stretched, and said dissatisfiedly: "I'm still pregnant. Do you know that waking up a pregnant woman will affect her mood for the whole day?"
Shen Xinran's expression was serious as he repeated, "Do you have Ethan's contact information?"
Jiang Tong blinked. "He gave me a business card with the address of his clinic on it."
Shen Xinran asked, "Where's the business card?"
Jiang Tong pointed to the trash can beside him and said, "It's over there."
Shen Xinran walked over, picked up the business card, glanced at the address on it, and turned and left.
"Where are you going in such a hurry?" Jiang Tong was still a little confused. He could only put on his coat while shouting, "Hey, wait for me! I'm going with you."
