Chapter 64.
Qian Chaowen, who felt that he had gained Mr. Mu's favor, was satisfied and took Qian Chengshu away temporarily with great tact. However, he was very concerned about the development of Xu Baiqing and Mu Zexuan.
"Where is Qingqing?" Qian Chaowen asked his wife.
"She went out with Mu Zexuan, so it's not easy for me to follow them. But I told her before I came that I should get along well with Mu Zexuan." Qian's mother replied.
The look of satisfaction on Qian Chaowen's face froze before it fully appeared. He saw Mu Zexuan alone. He had clearly created an opportunity for the two of them to be alone together, but now Mu Zexuan appeared alone.
"Look over there." Qian Chaowen's eyes turned cold, and he tried hard to maintain a smile on his face. He gestured to Qian's mother to look at Mu Zexuan.
Qian's mother was also stunned when she saw Mu Zexuan. She had just seen them going out one after another, but now only Mu Zexuan was left. Her face looked a little ugly.
"Don't worry, I'll go and find out some information." Qiancheng Shu said.
Qian Chaowen nodded, and Qian Chengshu approached Mu Zexuan with a smile. I don’t know what they were talking about, but I can see that the atmosphere between them was pretty good. Qian Chengshu quickly retreated.
"How is it?" Qian's mother asked anxiously.
"Don't worry, Qingqing is thirsty. Mu Zexuan came in and got her something to drink." Qian Chengshu told his parents the news he had found out.
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that things were not what they thought. Xu Baiqing and Mu Zexuan were doing well, and they had just talked to Grandpa Mu. The situation was very good for their Qian family.
And not long after, the family was surrounded and flattered by some opportunists, and they did not notice that in a corner, there appeared someone whom they never expected to appear in this occasion.
After the negotiation, Qian Yirong showed some fatigue on her face. Although she had gained a lot this time, it was easy to be led into a trap if she was not careful when confronting so many old foxes. After all, although they were waving the banner of the Qu family, it was just a small fight in the eyes of everyone. Many people just wanted to use this relationship to climb up to the Qu family.
However, Qian Yirong didn't mind this at all. She also had ulterior motives. As long as things developed in the direction she wanted, it didn't matter what kind of favorable conditions she had.
Qian Yirong was just about to take a break when she noticed the Qian family members surrounded by a lot of people. Looking at the smug expressions on their faces, Qian Yirong showed a sarcastic smile at the corner of her mouth.
It's really hard to see the situation clearly. Qian Yirong had discovered that there were some problems with the Mu family before. The relationship between the head of the Mu family who is in his prime and full of vigor and vitality, the old and frail Mr. Mu who is unwilling to retreat behind the scenes, and even Mu Zexuan who is the apparent heir.
Qian Yirong even sensed a subtle hostility from Mu Zexuan's father towards Mu Zexuan. This was not a good sign for the Mu family. Although the Mu family seemed to be in its heyday, if something really went wrong, the other families would definitely be the first to act like jackals and tigers to divide up the Mu family.
Qian Yirong walked back to the secluded corner where she and Qu Xueer had been while thinking. She was so immersed in her thoughts that she didn't notice that there was someone next to Qu Xueer.
"Rongrong." The familiar voice brought Qian Yirong back to her senses from her thoughts.
"Bai Qing?" Qian Yirong was surprised. She thought she would not be able to stay with Xu Baiqing from now on, but she didn't expect her to come to find her.
"Yeah, I miss you so much." Although they had just met, during this brief separation, Xu Baiqing felt that his uncontrollable longing for Qian Yirong filled his entire heart.
"Didn't we just meet?" Qian Yirong said a little embarrassedly.
"Anyway, a day without seeing you feels like three years. The time we haven't been together is also a long time compared to the past." Xu Baiqing said with a cunning smile and made a pretentious argument.
"You." Qian Yirong tapped Xu Baiqing's forehead unhappily, acknowledging what she said.
"Ahem..." Qu Xueer coughed twice unconsciously to remind the two people who were already flirting that there was a third party present.
"Xue'er, the company will soon receive a large order." Qian Yirong said uncomfortably.
"Of course I believe in Sister Rongrong's ability." Qu Xueer said while facing Xu Baiqing's gaze of "Why are you still here?"
"Yes, Xue'er and I just saw Rongrong. It's really amazing that you can handle so many people with ease." Xu Baiqing winked at Qu Xue'er while making no secret of his admiration for Qian Yirong.
Qian Yirong's face turned slightly red when she was praised by Xu Baiqing, and she did not notice the quarrel between Xu Baiqing and Qu Xueer. After Qu Xueer was satisfied with getting what she wanted from Xu Baiqing, she naturally said that she needed to leave temporarily to do something.
After Qu Xueer left, Xu Baiqing took Qian Yirong and walked deeper into the cave. The two soon came to an observation deck. If the curtains were drawn, the observation deck would become an independent small space.
This was what Qu Xueer told Xu Baiqing. After knowing this, Xu Baiqing wanted to bring Qian Yirong here. After all, although the place they were in just now was remote, it would still attract other people's attention, and she didn't want to be found by Mu Zexuan.
"This is what Xue'er told you, right?" Qian Yirong said firmly.
"Well, there's nothing interesting in there anyway. It's better to come here and be with Rongrong." Xu Baiqing said.
"Just now... are you okay?" Qian Yirong noticed that Xu Baiqing was in a bad mood and asked with concern.
"It's nothing, I'm just in a bad mood." Xu Baiqing said. Just now she felt like a carefully packaged commodity, being commented on by others.
Qian Yirong felt a pain in her heart when she saw her lonely expression, and subconsciously went forward and hugged her. Xu Baiqing buried his head in Qian Yirong's neck, and because she was wearing a dress, his head was pressed against her skin.
Qian Yirong just wanted to comfort Xu Baiqing and didn't think too much about it, but when her gentle breath blew on her skin, Qian Yirong felt her hair stand on end. The memory of being pressed on the sofa and bitten on the shoulders and neck by her came to her mind, and Qian Yirong's body trembled slightly.
Xu Baiqing noticed this keenly. Her eyes darkened, and she obviously guessed the reason for Qian Yirong's sudden trembling. All her attention was on Qian Yirong, and all the emotions just now were completely thrown out of her mind.
Xu Baiqing buried her face in Qian Yirong's neck with a malicious smile on her face. She deliberately exhaled lightly on Qian Yirong's neck, and feeling her stiffening body, more evil thoughts came to her mind.
"Rongrong is still better. If possible, I really want to move in and live with Rongrong." Xu Baiqing spoke deliberately, his lips brushing against Qian Yirong's skin lightly.
"...Okay, I want to too..." Qian Yirong only felt a tingling sensation spreading from the place where Xu Baiqing's lips touched. She responded to Xu Baiqing's words randomly, probably not even hearing what she was saying clearly.
"Really? It turns out Rongrong thinks the same as I do. Then you can't refuse me when the time comes." Xu Baiqing thought that Qian Yirong had agreed to his request to live together. Although it was not the right time yet, she would always find an opportunity, and then Qian Yirong would not be able to refuse him.
"Yeah," Qian Yirong agreed subconsciously at first, but soon realized that she seemed to have agreed to something. She asked in a questioning voice, "What?"
"I just agreed. Is Rongrong going to go back on her word?" Xu Baiqing couldn't let Qian Yirong get away with it, so he immediately pretended to be apologetic.
"I won't go back on my word." Qian Yirong said immediately. Although she was not quite sure what she had promised Xu Baiqing just now, in her opinion, it should not be something difficult to do. In that case, she would help her complete it when Xu Baiqing made a request. There was no need to make Xu Baiqing sad.
"Then we have an agreement." Xu Baiqing's eyes lit up and he immediately decided to make this agreement.
The excited Xu Baiqing got up from Qian Yirong's neck and looked into Qian Yirong's eyes with burning eyes. There was no more overly intimate action, and Qian Yirong also calmed down slightly.
"Of course." Not thinking it would be something difficult for her to do, Qian Yirong took the promise seriously, which laid the groundwork for her to be taken into the house later.
Unexpectedly, there was such a pleasant surprise. After Xu Baiqing hooked her fingers with Qian Yirong and made an agreement, she did not do anything to extend her limits. After all, she knew that too much is as bad as too little.
"Sorry to bother you," Qu Xueer's voice suddenly rang out from behind the curtains. She said, "Sister Bai Qing, they're looking for you."
"Tsk, I see." Xu Baiqing couldn't help but tsk, but when she looked at Qian Yirong, her eyes softened again, "Rongrong, let's talk later."
"Okay." Qian Yirong replied.
After Xu Baiqing left, Qian Yirong couldn't help but sigh softly. She always felt that she had less and less bottom line when facing Xu Baiqing. If this continued, Qian Yirong felt that she would be completely defeated when getting along with Xu Baiqing.
"Sister Rongrong," Qu Xueer waited for Xu Baiqing to leave before going up to the observation deck. She looked at Qian Yirong thoughtfully and said, "Will you attend the banquet later?"
"The goal has been achieved. I don't think it's necessary." Qian Yirong replied calmly.
She had no interest in the subsequent banquets. She had already contacted the targets of cooperation at the previous cocktail party and reached a preliminary cooperation intention with them. For her, there was no need to attend the remaining banquets.
Moreover, because there were so many people around, neither the Qian family nor Mu Zexuan noticed her. When the banquet started, she would be easily discovered by those people, which would cause unnecessary conflicts and be troublesome. Therefore, Qian Yirong preferred to leave first. After all, she was just trying to save Qu Xueer's face.
