She was quite slim, and her slender body was wrapped in a light blue dress. Her fair complexion made the dress look very elegant on her, and her waist-length hair hung loose on either side of her face. Her prominent facial features looked quite delicate when the lights of the airport shone on her. She had that timeless beauty that reminded Han Qing of someone else.
Han Qing’s footsteps stopped subconsciously as he looked intently at her. Su Jiu had been working for Han Qing for a long time, hence she noticed his drastic reaction when he spotted Shen Qi. “President Han, are you okay? Are we really going to let her drive us?”
“I’m fine.” Han Qing came to his senses, and the two of them quickly walked toward Shen Qi.
When Han Qing and Su Jiu were walking toward her, Shen Qi had a stiff smile on her face. In fact, before they arrived, Shen Qi had practiced this smile many times because she knew that the person she was meeting was the president of Han Group, and he had also done many things for her, so Shen Qi became nervous unconsciously.
“Hello, President Han. I’m Shen Qi, Ye Group’s Ye Moxuan’s assistant.” When she introduced herself, she did not reach out to shake his hand; instead, she bowed at him very humbly.
“I have prepared the car. If both of you don’t mind, you may catch a ride with me.”
Han Qing’s indifferent gaze fell on her face as he said in a lukewarm tone, “You know how to drive?”
Hearing that, Shen Qi blushed and nodded. “Yes.” When she went out in the morning, Shen Qi wanted to borrow a car from Xiao Su. Although he didn’t want to lend her at first, he suddenly agreed in the end. Besides, Shen Qi had learned how to drive before, and she had a driver’s license. In fact, her driving skills were quite good.
Han Qing was quite surprised to hear that, but Su Jiu asked, “Assistant Shen, as a safety precaution, I have to ask: do you have a driver’s license?”
Shen Qi nodded in response.
After that, Han Qing and Su Jiu got into Shen Qi’s car.
Ever since he laid eyes on her, Han Qing’s eyes had been locked on Shen Qi. Even though he was sitting in the back seat, his cold, serious gaze was still burning holes in the back of her head, and it slightly frustrated her.
As far as she knew, Han Qing was a very rigid and serious person. Usually, even if one had his attention, he would not even look at the person twice. Why is he looking at me so intently today?
Shen Qi straightened her back. Perhaps Han Qing is secretly a pervert?
Su Jiu noticed that the President had suddenly changed and acted like a psychopath, and she also felt Shen Qi’s uneasiness, so she explained in a low voice, “Assistant Shen, there are many passersby here. Please be careful when you drive.”
Her words made Shen Qi return to her senses immediately. Of course. What am I thinking? Perhaps he’s staring at me because he is worried about my driving skills, so he wants to remind me by looking at me. And here I am speculating about him and having the wrong assumptions about him.
Shen Qi put away her tangled emotions and focused on driving.
After half an hour, the car arrived at a high-end restaurant. Shen Qi handed the car to the manager to park and led Han Qing and his assistant into the restaurant.
Su Jiu was walking behind Han Qing, and when she saw the restaurant, she couldn’t help but smile. The fact that Shen Qi had even found out about President Han’s favorite restaurant showed that she was quite attentive.
After sitting down, the waiter served the prepared dishes first.
Han Qing was speechless upon seeing that.
Even Su Jiu was surprised. She’s quite something! She has even found out about President Han’s preferences. It seems that Ye Moxuan’s assistant is quite sincere!
Shen Qi rubbed her hands nervously and bit her lower lip. “President Han, I’ve asked the staff to prepare these in advance. You must be very tired from such a long flight. Please do eat first, and we can talk about cooperation later.”
With that, Shen Qi sat on the opposite side and smiled at Han Qing. She was grinning like a Cheshire Cat, and it looked quite strange.
Not more than a minute later, the smile on Shen Qi’s face gradually disappeared, and a wave of embarrassment washed over her. “D-Does President Han not like what I’ve prepared?”
Han Qing’s gaze fell on her face coldly, making Shen Qi gulp subconsciously.
After a long while, Han Qing raised his hand and picked up the chopsticks. Shen Qi felt relieved upon seeing that.
After a while, he said in a cold voice, “Thank you.”
At first, Shen Qi thought that she had heard him wrongly, but later, it became clear to her that Han Qing was really thanking her. She couldn’t help but smile when she heard that.
In the autumn afternoon, a ray of sunlight shone through the glass window into the quiet restaurant, while the world’s most famous classical music played in the background. Shen Qi sat there in a light blue skirt, looking exceptionally warm.
Ye Moxuan raised his eyebrows after receiving the news that Han Qing had boarded Shen Qi’s car, so he asked Xiao Su to come along as they went to the restaurant they had agreed upon.
It was at that moment he happened to see this scene from outside, so he narrowed his eyes dangerously. This woman really can’t last a moment without drawing attention to herself when I’m not around. And who said she could put her hair down? They are just talking about work. Does she have to dress up so beautifully?
Standing behind him, Xiao Su already felt his hostility and anger, so he cautiously asked, “Young Master Ye, shall we go in as well? I think it is more appropriate for you to talk to President Han about work. If we leave this to Assistant Shen, I am afraid the result will be unsatisfactory.”
Ye Moxuan didn’t speak, but the cold aura emanating from him was extremely frightening. Xiao Su pouted and asked, “Should I go in first and say hello?”
Ye Moxuan replied, “What for? Do you think you’re meeting your old friend?”
Xiao Su was speechless upon hearing his remarks. Well, I’m just trying to give you a plausible reason to go inside!
Ye Moxuan ordered, “Push me in. I want to see how many men she is planning to seduce.”
Seduce? Xiao Su was speechless upon hearing that. As he pushed Ye Moxuan into the restaurant, he spoke up for Shen Qi, “I think Assistant Shen looks quite normal. Why do you say that she’s trying to seduce other men?”
“She has dressed up specially for this,” Ye Moxuan reminded him with a sneer.
Xiao Su glanced at the people inside again and said incredulously, “Young Master Ye, Assistant Shen doesn’t seem to have any makeup on, and I think she’s even wearing the dress you bought for her.”
Ye Moxuan didn’t know how to reply to this. Suddenly, he felt a little embarrassed. So, am I annoyed because I can’t stand seeing her wear the clothes that I bought for her to meet other men?
“Plus, weren’t you the one who asked her to arrange this?”
Another slap in the face for me. Ye Moxuan sneered, “You don’t want your job anymore, huh?”
Xiao Su immediately said, “Of course not! Young Master Ye couldn’t have possibly done such an embarrassing thing! Assistant Shen has gone overboard today, dressing in a showy manner, even though they’re just discussing work-related stuff. Why is she being so ostentatious?”
“Who gave you the right to comment on my woman?”
Upon hearing that, Xiao Su could only smile bitterly deep down.
Shen Qi was very excited when she saw that Han Qing had eaten what she had prepared, so much so that she forgot to serve herself and spent the entire time staring at Han Qing. Even Su Jiu, who was sitting next to them, felt awkward looking at them.
On the other hand, Han Qing was like a statue that didn’t feel anything as he ate in front of her impassively.
