Chapter 27 Chapter 27 Not tempted at all?
The man's fingers were strong and his eyes were sharp.
Qin Mian raised his hand to block his hand and avoided his gaze, "No!"
"How am I inferior to him?" Si Tu's eyes darkened, and he was clearly very angry. "Why are you guarding such a useless thing? Huh?"
Qin Mian lowered his eyes.
She wanted to find a suitable opportunity to break up with Zhu Yinglong, but she hadn't found one yet.
Especially recently, he seemed to realize that she was going to break up with him, and started to behave in a way that would please her.
Seeing him like this, it became even harder for her to say the words of breaking up.
But no matter what happens between her and Zhu Yinglong, that is her business and has nothing to do with Si Tu.
"Boss Si!" Qin Mian stopped him, "Please don't talk about my boyfriend like that!"
As long as they haven't broken up, Zhu Yinglong is still her boyfriend.
Then she wouldn't want others to use derogatory words on him.
Si Tu was rejected and was very angry.
After she reminded him, he calmed down a little, turned his head and sneered.
He also didn't expect that she would defend him like this.
It was obvious that in his eyes, Zhu Yinglong was not worthy of her in any way.
"I think I've made it very clear to you today." Qin Mian continued to distance himself from him calmly. "I won't be with you, so from now on, please don't have any contact with me outside of work. Thank you!"
After saying that, she opened the car door and got out.
Si Tu leaned back in his seat, watching her pass by the windshield, and licked the corner of his lips patiently.
His eyes were fixed on her like a wolf.
Obviously, he wouldn't give up just because of her one rejection.
On the contrary, she seemed to have aroused in him a stronger desire to plunder.

That night, City G.
Zhu Yinglong finished a day's business trip and returned to his room.
After taking a shower, he took the computer again and started logging into the administrator backend to check the chat history between Qin Mian and Si Tu on the office software.
Qin Mian still only talked about work, and Si Tu asked her out on the weekend and even called her.
She took advantage of him being away on a business trip and broke into his house!
Zhu Yinglong frowned, and even suspected that Si Tu was deliberately finding an excuse to send him somewhere else so that he could stay in Nanzhou and poach him.
There was no way to confirm what Si Tu said to Qin Mian on the phone. He was worried, so he grabbed his phone and was about to call Qin Mian when there was a knock on the door.
He put down his phone and computer for the moment, stood up, and went to open the door for the person outside.
Jin Ying, an intern from the same group, appeared at the door with wine and midnight snacks.
"Ding ding ding ding!" She smiled at him with a smile on her face, "Let's have a midnight snack together, Team Leader!"
Zhu Yinglong was originally in a bad mood, but when he saw her bright smile, his worries were immediately forgotten.
"It has to be you." He smiled and turned sideways to let her in.
"What's wrong?" Jin Ying came in and observed him sideways. "Are you too tired from the daytime meeting?"
Zhu Yinglong didn't intend to reveal the matter between him and his girlfriend to outsiders. He just pulled the corner of his lip and said, "Yeah."
"I knew it!" Jin Ying placed the food and drinks on the coffee table. "That's why I brought you some wine. Relax!"
There was Zhu Yinglong's phone and computer on the coffee table. Seeing that the computer was on, she tilted her head to look at it, "No way? Still working?"
Before she could see the interface clearly, Zhu Yinglong quickly stepped forward and closed the laptop.
"Let's not talk about work anymore." Zhu Yinglong casually placed his computer on the sofa. "Let's eat."
As he said that, he sat down at the coffee table.
"Okay!" Jin Ying agreed happily and sat down next to him.
The two of them were eating skewers and drinking, and before they knew it, they were drunk and looked at each other with increasingly blurred eyes.
**
It was on this night that Qin Mian received a call from an unknown number.
The person who called her was the general assistant of another hotel.
Qin Mian roughly guessed what the intention was in calling her at this time.
The new district hotel and catering cluster project planned by the government is the largest new construction project in Nanzhou in the next ten years. It is a hot commodity in the entire hotel and catering industry. Who doesn’t want to get a piece of the pie?
Now, several companies that have received government bidding invitations are naturally preparing for their bids in full swing.
At this time, whoever has the better bid document basically determines the possibility of winning the project.
Then, some companies that are not so upright will take risks and use any means necessary.
The other party said on the phone that he wanted to meet with her to discuss in detail.
In order to confirm whether his guess was correct and to prepare for the next step, Qin Mian thought quickly and agreed to the other party's appointment.
The meeting time was chosen for that night, at a club.
Qin Mian followed the other party's request and did not drive himself, but instead called a taxi online.
In terms of clothing, he tried to cover himself as tightly as possible, wearing a hat and a mask.
The club should be run by the other company. When Qin Mian arrived, someone met her at the door and led her to the designated private room.
The person who made the appointment to meet with her was the general assistant of the other company, Zheng Shaoxing, and the boss himself did not show up.
And the purpose of meeting her was just as she expected.
As long as she is willing to reveal the bid price to the rival company, they can give her a corresponding reward of 5 to 10 million yuan, depending on the specific content of the bid price she reveals.
At least, it will not be less than five million.
Five million, a very tempting figure, was just enough for Qin Mian to buy the house he wanted in Nanzhou.
If her professional ethics were lower and her legal awareness was weaker, it would be really difficult for her to resist this temptation.
And with her ability, she could even set up a scheme that would allow her to get the money and get away with it.
When the other party threw out this number, her mind began to quickly estimate the feasibility of this matter.
However, no matter how smart and talented you are, you will never be able to overcome the hurdle in your heart.
As the saying goes, a gentleman loves money but gets it in a proper way.
Even if she could be sure of getting away with it safely, she would still feel uneasy if she got the ill-gotten gains.
But if she doesn't agree, then the other party will definitely find someone else.
She is not the only one who has the opportunity to access the contents of the bid.
Once the other party finds other people, the follow-up will be out of control.
So, in order to calm the other party, Qin Mian did not refuse immediately, but only said: "I need to go back and think about it."
"No problem." Zheng Shaoxing added some tea to her cup. "But our boss's patience is limited."
"I'll give you a day." He smiled, put down his teacup, and looked up. "I'll contact you again at this time tomorrow. You can think carefully about whether to earn these five million for yourself or for other colleagues."
Sure enough, the other party's words once again verified that Qin Mian's guess was correct.
She smiled and confessed, "Such a considerable sum of money is indeed quite tempting to me."
The other person smiled and picked up the teacup to drink tea.
Of course they had investigated her.
I know that what she needs most now is a house in Nanzhou, and this price is just enough for her to buy a similar house.
**
Before leaving the box, Qin Mian put on his hat and mask again and put on a show for Zheng Shaoxing.
Seeing that she was so cautious, Zheng Shaoxing thought that the possibility of cooperation was very high, so he couldn't help but smile and took a sip of tea. He replied to his boss with satisfaction, saying that the matter could basically be said to be a done deal.
This was the first time that Qin Mian acted like this. In fact, he was just pretending and had no real intention of hiding from others. Therefore, she had no idea that someone was secretly spying on her.
Zhao Xiao hid in the corner and took a few more photos of her, then excitedly sent them to Si Tu.
She originally came here to play at the nightclub, but unexpectedly she ran into Qin Mian.
After she got off the car, she followed Qin Mian in, watched her enter the box, and then hid in this corner for a long time just to take pictures of this scene.
Secretary Qin secretly met with someone from the Qian family!
They must be trying to bribe her!
[Be careful she might betray you! ]
Several hotels, restaurants and real estate companies are competing to develop the project in the new district. Almost all the wealthy families in Nanzhou know about it.
Zhao Xiao had naturally heard about it from her family as well.
The initial investment for this project alone involves tens of billions. If it can be won, it will be backed by the government in the future and have unlimited prospects, so companies will naturally be willing to invest heavily.
So, if someone wants to bribe Qin Mian to sell the company's trade secrets, the price offered will naturally not be too low.
Faced with the temptation of high prices, Zhao Xiao felt that she would definitely not be able to resist.
Therefore, she didn't even have to doubt it and directly asserted that Qin Mian would definitely be bribed.
On the other end, Si Tu looked at her message without any change in expression. He just put down his phone and continued to wipe his wet hair.
**
After Qin Mian returned to his residence, he sat alone on the sofa for a long time.
She was thinking about how to tell Si Tu about this.
Mainly because she told him yesterday that they should no longer communicate in private time.
If she contacted him now, it would be like slapping herself in the face.
How about... tomorrow?
I'll tell him about this after I go to the company tomorrow.
After thinking it through, she got up, went into the bathroom to take a shower, and prepared to rest.
The next day, I arrived at the company, did some preparations, and saw Si Tu was there too.
"What would you like to drink?" Qin Mian asked him as usual.
Si Tu glanced over and saw that she had rejected him yesterday, but today she was acting in a businesslike manner and fulfilling her secretary duties conscientiously. She was indeed a good candidate who could clearly distinguish between public and private affairs.
But his mood was greatly affected.
"Whatever." He said unhappily and walked straight into the office.
Qin Mian saw his reaction and knew that he was still angry about her rejection of him yesterday. He pursed his lips, said "OK", stood up and poured him coffee.
It's normal for Mr. Si, who is always successful, to feel a little emotional after being rejected by a little secretary like her.
She can understand.
Fortunately, I had done a comprehensive understanding of him before and knew that he liked to drink coffee, but did not like tea or fruit juice drinks.
So, Qin Mian skillfully made him a cup of coffee and brought it in.
By the way, she told him that Qian's family wanted to bribe her last night.
Si Tu was not surprised at all.
When Zhao Xiao talked to him last night, he didn't have any emotional reaction.
This kind of business competition is very common. He has been following his mother to develop markets abroad since college. What kind of methods has he not seen?
All this was completely within his expectations.
So, he just calmly asked, "How much did they offer you?"
"Five to ten million."
Si Tu smiled and raised his eyes, "Not moved at all?"
Qin Mian was now willing to tell him directly, which meant that he had no intention of cooperating with them.
"Not really." Qin Mian pulled his lip, "I'm afraid I'll have a life to earn, but not a life to spend."
Although Si Tu had some selfish motives towards her, facing a project involving billions, if she really betrayed him, he might not forgive her.
Si Tu smiled and took a sip of coffee.
This is the good thing about smart people. No matter how great the temptation is, they have the brain to make judgments.
"That may not be the case." He put down the cup with a smile, raised his eyes again, and joked with her in a half-hearted way, "Maybe if you beg me for mercy, I'll let it go."
It's a project worth billions. If you ask him to do something about it, will he just let it go?
Qin Mian thought he was talking nonsense.
She had heard a lot of sweet talk, but this was the first time she had heard something of this magnitude.
"So, what are the conditions?" she asked calmly.
Now, it was Si Tu's turn to be stunned.
Unexpectedly, she could see through his thoughts so clearly.
If it really came to that, he certainly wouldn't take her life, nor would he send her to jail like he did to the others. However, if she begged him for mercy, he would let her exchange it for what he wanted.
for example.
She herself.
This is also why he was not anxious or angry at all when Zhao Xiao informed him last night.
He was even secretly glad.
Fortunately, his chance is coming.
Anyway, no matter what Qin Mian chooses, it will be the result he wants.
"Qin Mian." Si Tu now really loved and hated her, and his heart was itching. "You are too smart. You didn't even give me a chance."
Qin Mian turned his head away, avoiding his invading gaze and changed the subject.
"So what's next?" She didn't want to talk about feelings with him, so she turned the topic back to work. "Should we play along?"
For example, reporting wrong content to the other party and misleading them.
In this way, SC Group will be able to gain the upper hand.
No matter how you look at it, they're a winner, but Si Tu shook his head. "If they fall for it, how do you think they'll retaliate against you?"
Qin Mian was suddenly stunned.
She really hadn't thought about this level, and was only thinking about how to turn the situation around.
"Or..." Si Tu noticed her reaction, paused, and couldn't help laughing, "Qin Mian, are you willing to risk your life for me?"
When he said this, the look in his eyes when he looked at her became tender.
