“Jinghong…”
Qin Chuchu hurriedly pulled Bai Jinghong back.
Knowing Bai Jinghong’s temper, Fan Ming would really be in trouble today.
After all, he was the General Manager, and his father had done her a kindness.
“Hmm?” Bai Jinghong indeed stopped his movement. “Before, you always called me Young Master Bai when I told you to call me Jinghong.”
“Now that sounds much more pleasant!”
Hearing Qin Chuchu call him that, Bai Jinghong’s heart felt much more at ease.
He didn’t bother with Fan Ming anymore, but shouted fiercely, “Get lost! If you ever look for trouble with my woman again, I’ll skin you alive!”
“Yes, yes, yes…” Fan Ming, as if granted amnesty, hurriedly scrambled up and ran out of the office.
When only Qin Chuchu and Bai Jinghong were left in the office, Bai Jinghong didn’t stand on ceremony. He sat directly onto Qin Chuchu’s office chair.
Then he scooped Qin Chuchu into his arms with one hand, placing her on his lap and holding her tight.
Qin Chuchu only let out a soft murmur, her body wriggling slightly twice before staying still.
“Chuchu, you smell so good!”
Bai Jinghong said with a smile.
Qin Chuchu bit her lip, a blush appearing on her face.
She was truly worried Bai Jinghong might do something out of line at this moment.
Kissing was acceptable, but if it was… that kind of thing, she couldn’t accept it.
Thus, Qin Chuchu hurriedly picked up the proposal from the desk and handed it to Bai Jinghong.
“Jinghong, take a look. If there’s any problem, I’ll revise it.”
Bai Jinghong’s attention was indeed diverted, but he still held Qin Chuchu as he opened the proposal.
Bai Jinghong read it seriously, unable to stop praising it.
“Perfect. Simply too perfect. I even lied and said it was the result of a dozen high-level executives discussing for half a month.”
“Just looking at this proposal, it seems truly authentic and reliable. The content is detailed and thorough, supported by ample data. Such a big workload, and you finished it in just one day.”
“Truly the perfect trap! Chuchu, you really are my treasure!”
Being praised so much by Bai Jinghong, Qin Chuchu felt a little happy in her heart too.
“I just made a proposal with some data added. The ideas are all yours.”
“Not costing any capital, yet able to drag the opponent into a trap. Actually… you are very terrifying!”
Bai Jinghong looked at Qin Chuchu and smiled. “Am I very terrifying?”
Qin Chuchu didn’t evade, nodding. “If standing opposite you, you would definitely be an extremely fearsome opponent.”
Bai Jinghong laughed heartily. “Those words are exactly what I want to say about you. If I stood opposite you, I’d have a terrible headache too.”
Bai Jinghong wasn’t exaggerating at all.
In the original story, Qin Chuchu was definitely the most troublesome existence for the Bai Family.
Her talent was simply outrageous, handling matters meticulously, making it impossible to distinguish the truth from the subtleties in her words.
Seeing Bai Jinghong’s earnest look, Qin Chuchu couldn’t help but lean into his embrace.
She spoke softly. “Such an important plan, yet you entrusted it to me. Aren’t you afraid I’d leak it?”
“How could I be? I trust you as much as I trust my own little brother!”
“Little brother?”
“Yeah, the one poking you right now!”
Qin Chuchu sensed it, utterly mortified, her face painted with rouge.
“Rogue…”
Bai Jinghong lifted a hand to smooth her hair by her temple, caressing her pretty face. “Chuchu, you helped me with such a big matter. Whatever reward you want, just tell me!”
“It’s within my ability. It’s nothing.”
Qin Chuchu really didn’t want any reward. She even felt helping Bai Jinghong was a matter of course.
Ever since that incident in the car, Bai Jinghong had been engraved in her heart long ago.
Before, she thought this guy was notoriously infamous, a useless piece of trash who only knew how to act tyrannically relying on his family background.
But after truly interacting with him, she realized she was wrong, gravely wrong.
He wasn’t truly rotten inside. On the contrary, he was very capable and talented.
Even if outsiders said he was overwhelmingly powerful, cruel and ruthless, filthy rich yet supercilious, he was truly gentle with her.
That gentleness couldn’t be faked.
Though his flirtatious and lustful nature was definitely real—she had deeply experienced that.
“Chuchu, why don’t you come to the Bai Corporation? I’ll give you an annual salary of one billion. What do you say?”
Qin Chuchu was startled. Truly massive capital, mentioning a billion annual salary so casually.
But Qin Chuchu still shook her head. “I’m fine over here; I’m used to it!”
“Alright then. Whenever you’ve thought it through, come anytime. I’ll save the position of President of the Bai Corporation for you!”
Qin Chuchu was shocked once more. Bai Jinghong actually wanted to make her the President… What tremendous trust!
After a long while of intimacy, Bai Jinghong didn’t do anything excessive. Instead, he pulled Qin Chuchu up, preparing to take her to lunch before returning.
Just as he opened the office door, the Chairman and General Manager of Blue Sky Group were standing right outside.
“Chairman…” Qin Chuchu greeted.
“Ah, ah, Chuchu, working hard! Remember to balance work and rest!”
After saying this, Fan Jinzeng hurriedly looked at Bai Jinghong, his face full of apology. “Young Master Bai, today’s incident was a misunderstanding. My deepest apologies!”
“It was my fault for not disciplining my unworthy son well. As his father, I must take the blame. I hope you, in your great magnanimity, will forgive us.”
“Young Master Bai, I hope you won’t take it to heart!” Fan Ming also chimed in with an apology.
After Fan Jinzeng learned everything that had happened here from his son, his legs went weak with fear.
He had slapped his son to the ground with a single smack.
Damn it, giving birth to such a stupid thing is truly a misfortune for the family.
The fate of the Fan Group was visible for all to see, and yet this idiot still went to provoke Bai Jinghong.
“Chairman Fan, I’m not an unreasonable person. But this matter… was it a bit too much?” Bai Jinghong said with a faint smile.
Fan Jinzeng trembled. “Yes, yes, yes! This matter is my son’s fault!”
“Where is the fault exactly?”
Fan Jinzeng hurriedly said, “Director Qin works hard for the group, yet my stupid son went to trouble her for his selfish desires, repeatedly making things difficult. It’s my failure in oversight, chilling the heart of a meritorious employee.”
“Also, my son actually dared covet Young Master Bai’s woman. That’s simply the height of stupidity.”
Fan Jinzeng was, after all, an old hand in the world; he knew what Bai Jinghong meant by holding him accountable.
If he only spoke of Bai Jinghong’s matter, Bai Jinghong probably really would show him what fear meant.
So he had to speak up for Qin Chuchu’s grievances to calm Bai Jinghong’s anger.
“Chairman Fan is a perceptive man. From what I know, you have shown kindness to Chuchu, so I can’t say much either!”
“I planned to make her the President of the Bai Corporation, but Chuchu didn’t agree. I won’t force her either.”
“Without this layer of relationship, do you think I’d be willing to let Chuchu suffer such humiliation here?”
“Under this premise, you still chilled her heart? Indulged your idiot son to harass her? I really wanted to bulldoze your lousy group flat!”
Cold sweat immediately beaded on Fan Jinzeng’s back.
He truly wanted to beat his stupid son to death.
Goddammit, wasn’t this just a future Bai Family young madam right here? Offending her was courting death!
“Young Master Bai, I guarantee there won’t be a next time. If there is, you won’t need to lift a finger; I’ll personally beat my son to death!”
“I’ll also keep an eye on this matter concerning Director Qin. Absolutely no one will dare to have designs on her.”
Bai Jinghong smiled. “Your words, I actually believe. Just this once, no exceptions. Otherwise, I really should start inviting the construction team to begin work!”
“Now, my darling and I are going to eat. Are you still going to block the way?”
“Ah? No, no, no! Young Master Bai, please go ahead…”
Bai Jinghong took Qin Chuchu’s hand and left the place directly.
Only after the two of them left did Fan Jinzeng finally breathe a sigh of relief.
“Dad… He only relies on his family. How else could people be so afraid of him…”
Fan Ming was still somewhat unconvinced.
“Idiot!”
“Smack!”
A crisp slap rang out.
Fan Ming held his face, feeling deeply wronged.
“Are you truly stupid or faking it? And I’ve spent so much effort cultivating you, making you the heir.”
“I don’t care who he relies on. I’m asking you: what do you want to do? What can you do?”
“Even if Bai Jinghong were the only one left in the Bai Family, and he wanted to crush you, it would be as easy as stepping on an ant.”
“Do you really think the accumulation of several generations is a joke? Among the deeply intertwined connections, just pulling out any single thread would be enough to finish the two of us off for good!”
