Chapter 86.
The office finally dealt with all the matters, and Qian Yirong breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at Xu Baiqing who was working diligently at the new desk in her office, and felt very relieved.
Xu Baiqing's growth rate far exceeded her expectations. Moreover, she has a flexible mind and is good at drawing inferences from one instance. Many things can now be assigned to her independently, which is equivalent to having an extra secretary for her.
However, after the bidding is over, Xu Baiqing will return to school. For Qian Yirong, she might still feel a little uncomfortable. After all, she has been going in and out with Xu Baiqing these days and has become accustomed to his presence, which makes her work more fun.
After watching Xu Baiqing working diligently for a while, Qian Yirong pulled herself back to her senses. Thinking of the forces that had not been testing her recently, and the inside information she had gotten from Qu Xueer, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.
She said, "I know these old foxes won't believe the news I spread, but if they find out by themselves, they will definitely believe it. Even if there are some things that are wrong, they will find reasons to explain why they feel wrong."
She learned that the head of the Qu family had taken action against the Qian family. Qian Chaowen was completely unable to resist the Qu family's offensive. If it weren't for the secret help of the Mu family and the Li family, Qian Chaowen would have admitted defeat and handed over the half in his hand to the head of the Qu family.
But now with the secret help of the Mu and Li families, Qian Chaowen even began to want to get the half in the hands of the head of the Qu family. The Mu and Li families are not philanthropists. The reason they are willing to help Qian Chaowen is also for the documents in his hands.
Qian Yirong knew that the closer it got to the bidding meeting, the more frantic their fighting would become. This was what Qian Yirong wanted to see, but she felt a little sorry that the Shen family did not participate. The four major families were only at peace on the surface, but in fact they had long wanted to swallow up the other families and dominate the market.
Now Qian Yirong wants to break the apparent peace of the four major families. As long as they enter the stage of struggle, Qian Yirong can take advantage of the situation and reap the benefits. However, there are also smart people, and the Shen family has stabilized.
However, Qian Yirong does not necessarily have to overthrow all the four major families. Perhaps she can cooperate with the Shen family, but now, cooperating with the Shen family is also courting disaster, so Qian Yirong plans to control the progress. Before she develops with the development rights of the land in the east of the city, she will not let the conflicts among the four major families really break out.
"Bai Qing," Qian Yirong called out. Seeing her looking up at her, she asked, "You're off work early today. Do you want to go relax?"
"Where are we going?" Xu Baiqing asked, his eyes lighting up.
"Xue'er recommended a SPA to me. Do you want to try it?" Qian Yirong said with a smile.
"Recommended by Xue'er? Then it's worth a visit." Xu Baiqing said. She and Qian Yirong both had great faith in the store certified by Qu Xue'er.
"Okay, now that the preliminary preparations for the bidding have been completed, let's relax and wait for the bidding to begin." Qian Yirong said.
So the two of them got off work normally that day after a long time. Xu Baiqing skillfully sat in the passenger seat of Qian Yirong's car. The two chatted all the way and drove to the SPA shop recommended by Qu Xueer.
"You will have to go back to class after the bidding meeting. I will definitely not be used to it then." Qian Yirong started the conversation.
Xu Baiqing was stunned. She had been going in and out with Qian Yirong these days. She almost thought that she was working beside Qian Yirong. Now Qian Yirong suddenly mentioned that she wanted to go back to school to attend classes. Xu Baiqing remembered that she still needed to complete her studies.
"...If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten it." Xu Baiqing said after a pause. She began to feel a little restless and wanted to be like Qian Yirong, who only needed to go back to school during exams and had free time at other times.
But Xu Baiqing knew that she had no way of being like Qian Yirong, who could maintain her grades in the top 10% of her grade with such a heavy workload, so she could only suppress her thoughts with regret.
"After the bidding is over, the Qian family will definitely not want you to stay here anymore." Qian Yirong said.
Xu Baiqing understood what she meant. After the bidding was over, the Qian family should know that they had been cheated. However, because of Qian Yirong's arrangement, they would think that Qian Yirong was playing along and letting Xu Baiqing take away the fake document.
Basically, the relationship between them has been completely broken, and she will definitely be angry and let Xu Baiqing go back. Maybe she will use Xu Baiqing to contact Qian Yirong later, but she has to get through this period.
The best thing for Xu Baiqing is that she can go to school and doesn't have to stay at home all the time feeling the suffocating atmosphere. However, for Xu Baiqing who has been exposed to things in the shopping mall, going to school is a bit boring.
"I'll assign you some work," Qian Yirong said deliberately when she saw Xu Baiqing becoming listless. "Of course I'll pay you, and I'll transfer your salary for the next few days."
"Really?" Xu Baiqing's eyes lit up and she asked impatiently.
"Of course, would I lie to you?" Qian Yirong said with a smile.
The chatting along the way made this not-so-short journey pass very quickly. Xu Baiqing felt that it didn't take long before the two of them arrived at an underground parking lot. Qian Yirong took Xu Baiqing to the elevator.
With a "ding" sound, the elevator opened and the first thing he smelled was a light and elegant fragrance. Xu Baiqing looked up and saw the name of this SPA, Yunshu Qingyang. The specially designed font looked very comfortable.
A beautiful girl was sitting at the front desk. She stood up and smiled when she saw them. Qian Yirong walked in with Xu Baiqing and heard the girl say, "Welcome to Yunshu Qingyang."
After briefly asking the girl, Qian Yirong directly said that she and Xu Baiqing wanted to do the full and most expensive set. Xu Baiqing saw that the girl's smile became much more sincere.
"Do you two want to separate or stay together?" asked the girl.
"Rongrong..." Worried that they would be separated, Xu Baiqing subconsciously grabbed Qian Yirong's hand.
"It's fine if we're together." Qian Yirong turned around and patted Xu Baiqing's hand soothingly, and replied.
"I understand. Someone will be here soon to take the two distinguished guests in." The girl replied while operating something on the computer in front of her.
Just as the girl said, two beautiful women came out of the store and immediately came over to greet Qian Yirong and Xu Baiqing after seeing them. They introduced themselves as the masseuses for Qian Yirong and Xu Baiqing's SPA, and the two followed them.
The lighting inside the shop was dimmer and the aroma was more soothing than that in the lobby, and as the two masseuses walked through the process, the two gradually relaxed, but they hadn't expected to start with a bath.
Although it was a specially prepared medicinal bath, they were bathing in the same pool because they had chosen to do it together. Although they had slept in the same bed before, this was the first time they had bathed together openly, so they stood at the bathroom door, looking at each other in shock.
"The bathrobes have been prepared for the two guests. You can put the clothes you take off in the cabinet first. The two guests can keep the keys themselves." said the masseur.
Qian Yirong, who originally wanted to ask if they could take a bath separately, was choked by the masseuse's natural tone. Indeed, to outsiders, as both of them were women, there was nothing wrong with them taking a bath together, but she had other ideas about Xu Baiqing, so she felt it was inconvenient to take a bath together.
"Thank you for letting me know." Xu Baiqing grabbed Qian Yirong and replied.
Before Qian Yirong could react, Xu Baiqing had already pulled her into the bath room. The bath room here was designed to imitate a hot spring. The huge hot spring pool was filled with mist and was separated from the changing room by a huge transparent glass. As for the bathrobe the masseur mentioned, it was neatly stacked on the bench in the changing room.
"...Let's change clothes." Xu Baiqing, who had pulled Qian Yirong into the room with all her courage, felt shy belatedly when they were the only two left. Without looking at Qian Yirong's expression, she walked to the bench and prepared to change clothes.
Qian Yirong was still stunned. She didn't expect Xu Baiqing to move so quickly. When Xu Baiqing took off his coat, unbuttoned his shirt, revealing his extremely white shoulders, she turned around suddenly as if she was burned.
Although she had seen Xu Baiqing's body by chance before, those were all short-lived. Now, after being honest with Xu Baiqing for a long time, Qian Yirong felt her nose itchy just thinking about it, as if something was about to flow out.
She pinched the bridge of her nose to drive away the whiteness in her mind, taking deep breaths to regulate her emotions until she heard Xu Baiqing's voice behind her. She said, "I'm done."
Qian Yirong closed her eyes and forced herself to suppress the distracting thoughts in her mind. When she opened her eyes, she had regained her clarity of mind. She prepared herself mentally before turning around, but the scene before her still made her heart skip a beat.
The bathrobe prepared by the SPA is a bright red color, which makes Xu Baiqing's skin look even whiter. The bathrobe is large in size, and the neckline naturally reveals a large area of skin and delicate collarbone.
Xu Baiqing's face flushed slightly, and he stood there looking at her coquettishly, with some moisture in his eyes. Qian Yirong's throat was dry and she couldn't help swallowing, but she quickly came to her senses and forced herself to shift her gaze away from Xu Baiqing.
"You've already changed your clothes, so go inside first. I'll be there soon." Qian Yirong said with her eyes lowered.
Xu Baiqing didn't mean to stay here to watch Qian Yirong change clothes. She walked past Qian Yirong, carrying the fragrance that Qian Yirong had been familiar with these days. Qian Yirong couldn't help but take a deep breath. After she realized what was happening, her face flushed. She just hoped that Xu Baiqing didn't notice her actions just now.
But after Xu Baiqing entered the inner room, Qian Yirong realized her mistake. Although the changing room here was separated from the inner room, it was made of transparent glass, which meant that they could clearly see each other.
Qian Yirong's hands froze as she was taking off her clothes, and she didn't know whether she should continue. After hesitating for a while, Qian Yirong changed her clothes. She tightened her bathrobe and went into the inner room. The slight sound of water indicated that Xu Baiqing had gone into the water first.
Qian Yirong hesitated and glanced at the clothes hanger beside the bathtub. She found a bathrobe hanging there. She took a deep breath and quickly hung her bathrobe on the hanger. She only breathed a sigh of relief after she got into the water and completely covered her body.
