Chapter 13: Qin Yan, didn't you say you loved me?

~8 min read 1,598 words

Entering the elevator, employees entered one after another.

Lin Yan's face was pale, and she retreated weakly, looking at Gu He'an for help.

Gu He'an met her gaze and walked to her side, protecting her from being squeezed.

Perhaps being sick made one need more care; noticing his thoughtful protection, Lin Yan looked up and met his eyes, joy in her eyes. She turned her head to look at Qin Yan, her eyes filled with provocation.

Qin Yan saw Gu He'an's actions and let out a "tsk," reaching out to pull him forcefully toward her, saying loudly, "He'an, it's better if you keep some distance from Secretary Lin!"

"..." Lin Yan's expression instantly darkened.

Gu He'an's face was like frost, and he asked in a low voice, "What are you saying? Qin Yan, don't be unreasonable!"

Qin Yan saw his ugly expression and felt happy in her heart.

"Come over to my side. You are a married man, and Secretary Lin is still single. I'm doing this for Secretary Lin's sake!"

"..."

As the elevator opened, Gu He'an walked out with a gloomy face, and Qin Yan followed with a smile.

Although you registered a real marriage certificate, I will make you become rats in the gutter.

Never to see the light of day!

Arriving at the office, Gu He'an took out the share agreement again, adjusted his breathing, and calmed his emotions.

He looked at Qin Yan, his voice softening a bit. "Qin Yan, didn't you say you loved me? And we discussed signing this contract before we registered. Be good, baby, transfer the shares to me, and I'll arrange a job for you immediately."

"But the fake diamond ring you sent me made me very unhappy." Qin Yan saw him anxious, her expression even more aggrieved.

Gu He'an thought of the fake diamond ring and felt a bit guilty.

"Then let's wait until I buy a new diamond ring before we discuss signing the contract."

"Alright, but let's talk about work first. I want to be your secretary, how about that? I see Miss Lin is your secretary, and she has plenty of time to spend with you, and even commutes with you every day." Qin Yan looked at him with expectation.

Gu He'an immediately refuted, "Lin Yan has a graduate degree; she has strong work ability. How can you compare to her? That won't work."

Qin Yan sneered in her heart. Perhaps, in his heart, she was inferior to Lin Yan in everything!

Actually, before Lin Yan returned from abroad, this man's attitude toward her wasn't like this, and they had been very sweet together, which was why they got engaged.

But after Lin Yan returned, everything changed.

Gu He'an called the personnel department to inquire about vacant positions and finally decided to let her go to the planning department.

He said, "Once you get to the planning department, learn well."

"I will." Qin Yan nodded and added, "There's one more thing: after work today, can you go back to the Qin family with me?"

"Okay, go report to the personnel department first." Gu He'an urged.

Watching the woman leave, Gu He'an picked up his phone to send a message to Lin Yan to comfort her, only to see the message about the fifty million deduction. He gasped in cold air.

He really hadn't expected Qin Yan to spend a hundred million in two days!

Qin Yan went to find the personnel department, received her intern work badge, and went to the planning department.

The planning department manager, Jiang Tong, saw the intern badge on her chest. She looked at the message Lin Yan had sent her on her phone, and the corners of her mouth curled into a sneer.

Lin Yan was her best friend, and this bitch had bullied Lin Yan several times. Now that she had fallen into her hands, she wouldn't be polite!

"Qin Yan, pour me a cup of coffee, no sugar, and print the documents and send them to the marketing department. Since you want to learn, you should have the appearance of learning."

Qin Yan was stunned. She had just arrived and didn't know anything, yet she was being asked to do things?

And she felt that this planning department manager's gaze toward her carried strong hostility.

She hadn't even met this woman; why was she targeting her?

Jiang Tong met her gaze, raised her eyebrows provocatively, and said forcefully, "Don't want to do it? As an intern, if you don't do your job well and want to slack off, then get out. I won't take in trash here!"

"I didn't say I wouldn't do it. Why are you angry? You're about to get age spots, Manager Jiang."

"You..." Jiang Tong gritted her teeth. Just wait and see how I deal with you!

After Qin Yan walked away, she whispered to the employee Sun Jie beside her, "Send a message to everyone in the department. Give this intern Qin Yan a hard time and make her get out of our department as soon as possible."

Sun Jie heard that she was being asked to intentionally make things difficult for Qin Yan and was a bit nervous. "Manager, she's the CEO's wife; isn't that bad?"

Jiang Tong sneered. "So what if she's the CEO's wife? She's still an intern here. If she can't do her job well, she should get back to being her CEO's wife!"

"..." Sun Jie could only nod.

Qin Yan hadn't expected being an intern to be so busy. Pouring coffee, sweeping the floor, sending documents, and running various errands kept her so busy she couldn't even drink a sip of water. She also realized that she was being targeted by the entire department.

This must have been arranged by Jiang Tong.

In the afternoon, she received a call from Gu He'an, saying he was going to take her to buy a diamond ring.

She said, "Buy a bouquet of flowers and come to the planning department to pick me up, and I'll go with you."

Gu He'an refused, saying it wasn't good to be so high-profile at the company.

"Then don't buy the wedding ring."

Qin Yan hung up the phone. If it weren't for the fact that she still had to act, she would have wanted to blacklist his number.

However, she knew very well that Gu He'an wanted her to sign the contract as soon as possible and definitely didn't want to fall out with her.

Half an hour later.

Gu He'an walked into the planning department holding a bouquet of gorgeous roses.

The entire planning department looked in surprise as he walked toward the intern Qin Yan. Everyone's expressions were filled with jealousy, envy, and worry.

They had intentionally made things difficult for Qin Yan; wouldn't they be retaliated against?

"If you want it, I'll send it to you; how dare you act like a brat and hang up on me first." Gu He'an handed the flowers to Qin Yan, warning her with a straight face.

Qin Yan held the flowers, smiling brightly. "You want to take me away; you have to greet the manager, otherwise it won't be good for an intern like me to leave early."

"Alright, I'll go say it." Gu He'an looked at Jiang Tong and said he was taking Qin Yan away. Jiang Tong didn't dare to disobey.

Qin Yan shook the roses in her arms and smiled at Jiang Tong. "Manager, He'an is taking me to buy a wedding ring, so I'll leave first."

Jiang Tong had the entire planning department target her; there must be a reason. She had Gu He'an buy flowers to perform this scene to test her attitude.

Looking at her gaze toward Gu He'an, there was no admiration. It seemed she didn't like Gu He'an, so why target her?

Jiang Tong stared at Qin Yan's departing back, feeling uneasy in her heart.

Didn't Lin Yan say that this woman was relying on her life-saving grace to the CEO to force him to repay her, and

Didn't Lin Yan say that this woman is relying on her life-saving grace to the CEO to extort favors, and is deliberately pretending to be the CEO's wife at the company? She even said her marriage certificate is fake.

But Qin Yan said she was going to buy wedding rings, and Gu He'an didn't refuse. What on earth is going on?

Qin Yan walked out of the company holding flowers, not expecting to run into Lin Yan by Gu He'an's car.

Lin Yan smiled and said, "Hello, Miss Qin. I heard from the CEO that you are going to buy wedding rings. I know a pretty good private jewelry studio; I'll take you there."

She used to think Qin Yan was quite obedient, so she wanted to endure it for a while, let Qin Yan cook more meals for her and wait on her. She didn't expect that after getting the marriage certificate, this Qin Yan would cause so much trouble, making her the subject of gossip at the company as the CEO's mistress.

To avoid long delays leading to more trouble, she urged Gu He'an to buy her a diamond ring, coax her into being happy, and sign the share transfer contract. Once that was done, she would immediately announce that she is the real wife of Gu He'an, and that Qin Yan is the shameless third party!

She is even looking forward to the moment Qin Yan finds out the marriage certificate she received is fake, and sees her broken and in pain!
