That's just how people are sometimes.
Some things seem unacceptable before you've done them, but once you've done them, they're not so unbearable anymore.
So Qiao Yihan teamed up with Bernard and obtained a letter of recommendation from him to enter the outer areas.
He firmly believed that as long as he could penetrate the outer regions and open up a new route for the Qiao family to connect with the international community, even his father would no longer be able to control his life.
Qiao Yihan came full of ambition, but all his hopes were once again dashed by Qin Sheng.
As he was being dragged away, he glanced one last time in Qin Sheng's direction.
He saw the girl he both loved and hated walk indifferently through the crowd until she stopped next to Qin Zheng and Qin Shi'an, then slowly drank another glass of orange juice.
People kept coming up to chat with him.
Some were simply captivated by her beauty and charm, others admired her courage and resourcefulness, and still others...
Qiao Yihan saw a burly man walk up to Qin Sheng.
With his arrival, the others showed fear and retreated to the side.
But he seemed oblivious to those people, only offering Qin Sheng snacks and drinks with a fawning smile, and then cautiously saying a few words.
Qin Sheng frowned slightly and glanced at the man indifferently.
The man immediately stiffened and dared not speak until another man came over, at which point he awkwardly touched his nose and backed away.
Before leaving, he gave a slight bow.
Anyone could see the respectful and wary look on his face.
And that person... was Bill.
—The captain of the Interpol Center.
There was another man who came later, whom Qiao Yihan also recognized; he was Fu Jingheng.
Something seemed to surge forth from his heart, and some details that he had ignored or deliberately refused to face gradually became clear in his mind.
Qiao Yihan finally realized that some people were never meant to be his.
It wasn't like that before, it's not like that now, and it won't be like that in the future...
There is no future.
*
To Qin Sheng, Qiao Yihan was just a grasshopper that jumped around in front of her a few more times, not worth her much attention.
Therefore, after crippling his legs, she stopped paying attention to him.
I mainly didn't have time to pay attention; too many people came up to chat with me.
Thankfully, Bill appeared in time, otherwise Qin Sheng felt she would soon lose control of her feet again.
Fu Jingheng looked at the girl with a cold and agitated expression and couldn't help but chuckle: "What did Bill say to you?"
Qin Sheng said expressionlessly, "Let me join the Criminal Investigation Center."
Fu Jingheng raised an eyebrow: "You refused?"
Qin Sheng: "Otherwise, should I agree?"
Instead of directly answering whether he should or shouldn't, Fu Jingheng took out his phone, scrolled through his WeChat chat history with Bill, and showed her some pictures.
As he flipped through the pages, he said slowly, "This is the reward the Hollis family gave me last October after I helped them rescue their young master."
$.00
Oh, three hundred million US dollars, which is more than two billion RMB.
It's almost three times more than the eight hundred million she helped capture in the hunt for zero.
Fu Jingheng turned to the next picture, which was an oil painting from the Renaissance period. Qin Sheng knew that it was worth about two billion RMB.
Fu Jingheng continued slowly, "This is something Bill found at the headquarters of a dangerous organization when he led his men to take it down. Later, he sold it to the Italian government, um..." Fu Jingheng recalled for a moment and continued, "It cost 340 million US dollars, I think."
Qin Sheng's brow twitched: "This money..."
Fu Jingheng said slowly, "Bill and I each took one-third, and the remaining one-third was divided among the participants in the operation."
He paused, then continued, "The Criminal Investigation Center is an international organization, but it is also independent of the international community. The United Nations allocates a considerable amount of money to the Criminal Investigation Center every year, requiring it to safeguard national security and combat criminals."
"The center members only need to do these two things. As for the stolen money and rewards they receive in the process of fighting criminals, these are not under the control of the United Nations and are basically handled internally."
So, are you really not going to reconsider?
Fu Jingheng put away his phone and looked at Qin Sheng with a deep gaze.
To be honest, Qin Sheng was genuinely moved.
I couldn't help but ask him, "How did you become the boss over there?"
Fu Jingheng: "?"
Qin Sheng felt quite envious.
Bill and his men had to work themselves to the bone to get a third of the money, or share the remaining third together, while Fu Jingheng didn't have to participate in the operation and could get a third of the money for free.
Being the boss is definitely worth it.
Unlike her.
I only think of her when I need someone to save the day; otherwise, no one ever shares any of the money I make with her.
She was immediately subjected to relentless debt collection after using even a small amount of money, forcing her to become a ruthless wage earner due to her debt.
The situation worsened when they set up a QS base.
There has only been money invested, and over the past five years, it must have amounted to at least several hundred billion yuan. Basically, all the money she earned from completing tasks has been invested.
In other words, the research has been somewhat successful, and some anti-gene mutation drugs and technologies are gradually maturing and ready for use. In another two years, it should be able to generate some profit.
But who knows how many years it will take to recoup the losses?
It would have been better if they hadn't compared; the more they compared, the more unbalanced Qin Sheng felt.
I couldn't help but ask again, "How did you become the boss over there?"
Fu Jingheng finally understood what she meant, and he was both annoyed and amused. He couldn't help but flick her forehead: "Money-grubber!"
Qin Sheng: "..."
Qin Sheng was furious.
She swept his hand away and tugged at her second brother's sleeve, saying, "Second brother, he's trying to trick me into working for him."
Qin Shi'an narrowed his eyes and turned to cast a sharp gaze at Fu Jingheng.
Qin Zheng also heard their conversation, and narrowed his eyes, looking at Fu Jingheng with a slightly dangerous expression: "Although my Qin family is not as wealthy as the Fu family, we can still support our own daughter. It's not to the point that my Sheng Sheng has to work to earn money."
Gu Yueming was even more direct, immediately transferring 1 billion yuan to her daughter and straightening her back, saying, "That's right! Sheng Sheng, Mommy is rich!"
Fu Jingheng: "..."
Qin Sheng's expression softened, and she nodded to him, saying, "Your family is quite well-off, so you don't need to work for the time being."
Fu Jingheng, who was just trying to trick his girlfriend into joining the criminal investigation department so he could openly bring her along on future business trips here: "..."
It's tough for him.
It's really tough for him.
This girlfriend... and her family are getting harder and harder to deal with. How am I going to live like this?
I wonder how his parents are doing right now, and when they'll be able to find us.
If they don't come soon, their daughter-in-law will run away.
