Xie Chiquan had just made a sarcastic remark about Long Yunting turning Sheng Qian into a tool for a marriage of convenience.
Xie Chiquan never considered himself to be that kind of person, yet he said such things to Long Yunting at such an inappropriate time and place, which was really unlike his usual style.
Seeing Sheng Qian and Long Yunting standing there chatting and laughing, I felt a pang of sadness.
Even so, he still stepped forward to greet her generously: "Sheng Qian."
"Young Master Quan."
Sheng Qian remained as polite to Xie Chiquan as ever.
Xie Chiquan said with a hint of helplessness, "I was just talking about you with Young Master Long, and here you are. Are you here to pick up Young Master Long?"
"I was just passing by and saw him, so I got off to chat," Sheng Qian said, glancing at Xie Chiquan.
"There's been a problem with your packaging. I'm just about to go over and talk to your Manager Zhou."
This explains why it appears here.
Zhou Ran is now the manager of two stores, and she handles all the matters.
"It's kind of you, Young Master Quan, to handle this personally. If there are any other issues, please communicate directly with Zhou Ran. I won't get involved unless it's a major problem." Sheng Qian is now completely hands-off with managing the clothing store and skincare products.
Xie Chiquan nodded: "I will communicate with her. Although there was a misunderstanding between us before, we are still friends. Sheng Qian, you don't need to be so distant when you see me in the future. I don't think Young Master Long will have any misunderstandings because of this. Young Master Long, don't you agree?"
Long Yunting's gaze swept lightly across his face, and he said, "No one can make me and Qianqian misunderstand each other."
This shows that they are convinced that there will be no conflict between them.
Xie Chiquan had no idea where Long Yunting got his confidence from.
I don't understand how Sheng Qian gets along with such a blockhead. Doesn't she think Long Yunting has a strange personality?
In their eyes, Long Yunting was a cold, obedient robot.
He went wherever the old man pointed, without any sense of his own soul.
Such people not only lack romance, but they also lack their own emotions.
To put it simply, it's a piece of ice that won't melt.
One more thing.
Xie Chiquan felt that Long Yunting, whose legs were now crippled, was not a good match for Sheng Qian.
It's really kind of Sheng Qian to do so much for him.
In their circle, countless people are making fun of Sheng Qian. Although Sheng Qian hasn't entered their circle and doesn't know what people are saying about her behind her back, they'll hear it sooner or later. He's really worried about whether Sheng Qian can handle it.
Thinking about all this, Xie Chiquan frowned.
They disliked Long Yunting even more.
Before his legs were crippled, he was just a cold piece of wood. Now that his legs are crippled, he still has no ambition and spends his days patrolling the compound. What future can he possibly have?
Does Long Yunting really want Sheng Qian to support him?
What's the difference between this and a gigolo?
Now, Xie Chiquan sees Long Yunting as unworthy of Sheng Qian in every way.
"Young Master Quan, Long Yunting and I have other matters to attend to, so we'll be leaving now." Seeing Xie Chiquan's somewhat somber gaze, Sheng Qian was afraid the two of them would start arguing in the street, so she took Long Yunting away first.
Upon hearing Sheng Qian's full address of Long Yunting, Xie Chiquan's gaze drifted towards Long Yunting again.
It seems that they are not as close as one might imagine.
They might get divorced someday.
Thinking of this, Xie Chiquan smiled with some relief: "Okay, I also need to go and meet with Manager Zhou."
It wasn't really a big problem, but Xie Chiquan took it very seriously when it came to matters concerning Sheng Qian.
Watching Xie Chiquan leave, Long Yunting said something to his men and then got into the car with Sheng Qian.
"You and Xie Chiquan are very close?"
Sitting in the passenger seat, Long Yunting suddenly said this.
You could tell from his tone that he wasn't very happy.
Sheng Qian started the car and looked over with amusement: "There's nothing between him and me."
“I didn’t ask about your relationship,” Long Yunting said, his brows furrowing. “His feelings for you are obvious.”
"..."
Since you already knew, why ask her?
Didn't he already figure it out before?
What's going on now?
“Qianqian, we are husband and wife. You can try to change how you address me.”
The closer the better.
If it weren't for Long Yunting's slightly tense clenched fist, one would have thought he was angry just by looking at his tense face.
So she was jealous.
Sheng Qian smiled and teased him, "Then shall I call you 'darling'?"
Long Yunting suddenly pursed his lips.
This is good.
"Darling? Husband? Husband?"
“…” Long Yunting liked them all.
Although he really wanted Sheng Qian to call him that, he knew that Sheng Qian would never actually say it.
"It seems you prefer something more subtle," Sheng Qian said with a broad smile. "Brother Ting! How about this one?"
The moment the words "Brother Ting" were uttered, Long Yunting felt a jolt in his heart.
My ears felt a little hot.
The way Sheng Qian uttered those three words carried an extremely alluring charm.
"Looks like you're still not satisfied, Tingting, little Tingting?"
Long Yunting: "..."
"If you don't say anything, that means you agree. 'Little Tingting' is a good nickname!"
"Do you think I'm small?"
Long Yunting suddenly asked a question.
They were completely unaware that their question was somewhat ambiguous.
Sheng Qian was taken aback for a moment, then instantly realized what he meant and glared at him: "You scoundrel."
Long Yunting was stunned by the scolding.
"I didn't..." act like a hooligan.
"Whether you're older or younger is none of my business," damn it, I never expected Long Yunting to have this kind of loose tongue.
