After arriving at Qin Chuchu’s villa, Bai Jinghong knew the passcode and entered directly.
Once in the bedroom, it was naturally inevitable to have an intense and exhilarating session with Qin Chuchu.
Qin Chuchu hadn’t said more than a few words upon seeing Bai Jinghong before she was suddenly taken.
Bai Jinghong had truly been holding it in for an entire night.
This release was absolute. Qin Chuchu had no other choice but to beg for mercy.
If the villa’s soundproofing hadn’t been so good, anyone passing by would have had to offer a slight salute of respect.
A long while later, after showering, the two finally emerged from the villa.
Qin Chuchu’s already stunningly beautiful face had become even more ravishingly radiant, as if a single pinch would release water.
Under Bai Jinghong’s nourishment, she became increasingly captivating, even appearing to age in reverse.
After dropping Qin Chuchu off at the corporation, she quickly became busy.
Bai Jinghong slacked off all day but stayed by Qin Chuchu’s side the entire time.
Whether it was meetings or talking with various managers, no one dared say a single word of objection to Qin Chuchu.
To help her adjust, they even went out to inspect quite a few projects.
It wasn’t until evening quitting time that Bai Jinghong finally prepared to take Qin Chuchu out for dinner.
But upon reaching downstairs, a tall, thin figure appeared in front of Bai Jinghong.
“President Qin! What are you doing here…? I visited today, and they said you’d already resigned!”
“Eh? Young Master… Young Master Bai, hello, hello!”
The tall, thin man had initially been greeting Qin Chuchu, but upon seeing Bai Jinghong, the smile on his face intensified, becoming extremely enthusiastic.
Bai Jinghong naturally recognized this fellow.
“Chuchu, you know him?” Bai Jinghong asked.
“Yes, President Jiang of the Four Seasons Group!”
“Right, right, right! I’m the owner of Four Seasons Group, my name is Jiang Nan’an!” Jiang Nan’an quickly introduced himself.
“President Jiang, what brings you here?” Qin Chuchu asked.
Jiang Nan’an hastily pulled out two invitations. “It’s like this: the day after tomorrow, I’m holding an exhibition at the Qingcheng Venue in Dragon Sea.”
“I came specifically to invite you both!”
Bai Jinghong understood instantly. This fellow came to see Qin Chuchu just to deliver the invitation.
For a boss to deliver it personally—it seemed he was also wanting to recruit Qin Chuchu, showing his sincerity. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have bothered.
And as for his side, if Jiang Nan’an hadn’t come personally, perhaps no one would have paid him attention.
Unexpectedly, they met together.
And the exhibition at the Qingcheng Venue… wasn’t that precisely where Ye Chen would flex his biggest ego trip?
If they hadn’t received an invitation today, Bai Jinghong would have still had to go when the time came.
Since it was delivered, he’d just accept it.
Bai Jinghong took the invitations. “Alright, you’ve delivered them, now leave!”
“Don’t even think about trying to poach Chuchu. She is now the Vice President of my Bai Corporation!”
Bai Jinghong stated it casually, then wrapped his arm around Qin Chuchu and walked forward.
Jiang Nan’an was genuinely stunned inwardly.
Everyone said the young master of the Bai family was a Playboy Young Master, yet this man could deduce his intentions from just a simple action.
How could he possibly be a simple person?
He had indeed intended to lure Qin Chuchu to his Four Seasons Group as an executive.
That’s why he’d delivered the invitation personally, to show the importance he placed on Qin Chuchu.
But now, that thought could no longer exist. Otherwise, he’d be courting disaster.
As Bai Jinghong headed to the parking spot, Jiang Nan’an’s car happened to be nearby.
The other man hurriedly greeted him once more.
Bai Jinghong seemed to remember something. “President Jiang, I assume you’ve invited President Ye of the Dragon Morning Group as well?”
“Yes, yes! Young Master Bai, he has been invited!” Jiang Nan’an responded quickly with a smile.
“Oh, good then.”
Bai Jinghong glanced at him and casually teased: “So your name is Jiang Nan’an? Your wife’s name wouldn’t happen to be Chunfeng, would it?”
He’d thought it was just an offhand, casual tease, but the other party showed an expression of shock.
“Young Master Bai, you… are you a Feng Shui Master? How did you know my wife’s name is Chunfeng? My wife’s name is Yin Chunfeng!”
This time, even Bai Jinghong was somewhat surprised. He then asked further: “Do you have children?”
Jiang Nan’an quickly nodded. “Yes, yes, yes! I’ve been married for sixteen years. Three children.”
Bai Jinghong pursed his lips. “Well, that’s good. Go back and check on things. Maybe do a paternity test or something…”
“?”
Bai Jinghong didn’t say any more. He took Qin Chuchu to the car and drove straight away.
Jiang Nan’an was left standing there, stunned, completely unable to grasp Bai Jinghong’s meaning.
“Do a paternity test?”
Inside the car, Qin Chuchu was equally puzzled. “Jinghong, why did you say that just now?”
Bai Jinghong rolled down the window and lit a cigarette. “What’s the line before ‘When will the bright moon shine upon my return?'”
Qin Chuchu replied almost without hesitation: “‘The spring breeze has greened the river’s southern shore again!'”
“Eh?” Qin Chuchu herself paused.
Bai Jinghong couldn’t help but laugh now. “It was just a coincidence. But since it was such a coincidence, a little hint might do him some good.”
“Married for sixteen years… it would be absolutely absurd if, in the end, none of the three children were his!”
Although Bai Jinghong had said it offhandedly, Qin Chuchu somehow found herself partially believing it.
This kind of thing was also tied to metaphysics. Better to believe it could be true than dismiss it as false.
Qin Chuchu had worked quite hard that day. The constant handover process was actually mentally taxing.
But for a massive corporation like the Bai Corporation, today was the hardest day. In the future, she’d just need to oversee certain projects.
“Chuchu, what do you want to eat? I’ll take you!”
Bai Jinghong drove the car along the road.
“Hmm… hot pot. I haven’t had it in a long time!”
“Alright!” Bai Jinghong headed straight for his family’s chain restaurant.
The hot pot restaurant was booming with business. All the private rooms were full; only seats in the main dining hall were available.
Bai Jinghong didn’t fuss over it.
“Guest, just mark what you want here!” A waitress handed over an order sheet.
Bai Jinghong didn’t even take it, casually saying: “Bring a free hot pot, a few plates of free lamb—make the portions large, don’t try shortchanging me right from the start! And a few more plates of free vegetables for boiling!”
Qin Chuchu also had to suppress a laugh.
Everything here was under the Bai family’s industries. Saying that technically wasn’t wrong.
But the waitress was totally bewildered.
“Sir, are… are you serious?” The waitress was torn between laughter and tears.
Bai Jinghong chuckled softly. He had just been memeing, not being serious.
So he took the order sheet, ready to choose.
But an abrupt voice interrupted.
“Using your family status to bully a waitress, huh… what a scumbag!”
Bai Jinghong was familiar with this voice.
Walking over was a man with a twisted smirk, his expression full of disdain!
Who else but his good friend, Ye Chen!
Bai Jinghong was indeed a bit surprised. He hadn’t expected to run into Ye Chen here of all places.
Could it be that villains and protagonists really possessed a mutual attraction, pulling them together like magnets?
“Yo, if it isn’t the Presidential Suite Hero, Mr. Ye? What’s the matter? Eaten too much and stuffed, here to play the gallant roadside hero?”
Hearing Bai Jinghong mocking him about that hotel incident, Ye Chen couldn’t help but gnash his teeth in fury.
He now knew Bai Jinghong was one of the murderers responsible for his sister’s death.
But he couldn’t act openly now. Even if he wanted to kill, he had to torment him brutally first.
Ye Chen twisted his mouth slightly, shielding the waitress, and sneered at Bai Jinghong: “When the road is uneven, I naturally must level it!”
Bai Jinghong leaned back in his chair, extremely dismissive. “When the road has dog shit, why don’t you lick the shit clean?”
Ye Chen considered himself a man of considerable cultivation, but at this moment, he couldn’t suppress the rising fury in his heart. “Arrogant! Such filthy and vulgar speech! People are truly unfortunate to have a Wicked Young Master like you!”
“Shut up, you cross-eyed blind fool! Why did your parents let you out of the house to bite people everywhere?”
Ye Chen was immediately choked speechless. He hadn’t expected Bai Jinghong’s verbal skills to be anything less than impressive.
