Chapter 111

~7 min read 1,360 words

Su Qingqing's face was pressed against Qin Ze's chest, and she could clearly hear his strong heartbeat.

Her face turned even redder instantly, and even the roots of her neck turned pink.

Qin Ze looked down at her.

Because of the alcohol, Su Qingqing's eyes were still hazy, her lips slightly parted, and her chest rose and fell gently with her breathing.

The neckline of the black slim-fitting dress had opened slightly during the previous movement.

He admitted that at this moment, Su Qingqing was truly beautiful.

Not the kind of beauty from deliberate dressing, but a natural charm and style revealed after drunkenness.

"Brother Qin..."

"What... what are you looking at?"

"Looking at you."

Qin Ze's voice was a bit hoarse.

Su Qingqing's face turned even redder, and she lowered her head, not daring to look at him.

Qin Ze reached out and lifted her chin.

Su Qingqing was forced to look up, meeting his gaze.

The two lines of sight intersected in the air.

The air inside the car seemed to freeze.

Su Qingqing's breathing became rapid, and the rise and fall of her chest became more pronounced.

She bit her lip, her eyes filled with a hint of tension.

Qin Ze had been sitting in the car for the whole trip, and his muscles were a bit sore!

He directly turned on the seat massage!

Then he turned on the car's ambient vibration!

By the next morning.

Sunlight spilled into the room through the gap in the curtains, and Qin Ze was awakened by the sound of a phone ringing.

He fumbled groggily for the phone on the nightstand and glanced at the screen.

An unknown number.

Location: Jiangcheng.

He frowned and answered:

"Hello?"

A pleasant female voice came from the other end of the line:

"What? Qin Ze, did you forget that we agreed to meet this weekend?"

Qin Ze was stunned, his mind instantly clearing.

Weekend? Meeting?

He remembered.

This is Zhao Yutong!

The one who previously said she wanted to meet to talk about investment.

He had originally planned to let her wait, but he didn't expect to be so busy these past two days!

He had completely forgotten about this matter!

"Oh, it's you, Sister Zhao."

Qin Ze sat up, leaning against the headboard:

"I didn't forget, how could I forget."

Zhao Yutong laughed on the other end of the phone:

"As long as you didn't forget; I thought you had made it big now and didn't look down on me anymore."

"That's not possible," Qin Ze smiled, "I definitely have to pay attention to your project, Sister Zhao."

"Alright then, is it convenient for you to meet now?"

Qin Ze thought for a moment and said:

"Come to the Fusheng Hotel, and call me when you arrive."

"Fusheng Hotel?" Zhao Yutong paused on the other end.

"Isn't that a five-star hotel?"

"Yes."

"You're arranging to talk business in such a high-end place?"

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"Of course there's no problem..." Zhao Yutong's voice carried a hint of surprise, "Then I'll be there in half an hour."

"Fine, call my phone directly when you arrive."

Qin Ze hung up the phone, tossed it aside, and stretched.

He checked the time.

9:30 AM.

He got out of bed, went into the bathroom to wash up, and changed into clean clothes.

After changing, he stood in front of the mirror and straightened his collar.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Qin Ze suddenly felt a bit emotional.

Zhao Yutong.

The girl who used to run wild in the small alleys with him when they were kids had now become a returnee elite.

Back then, they were both ignorant, doing bad things together and being chased by adults.

Later, he went to Jiangcheng University, and Zhao Yutong went abroad to study; the two had fewer and fewer intersections.

Even later, he occasionally heard from his parents that Zhao Yutong was doing some bird research abroad.

Now Zhao Yutong has returned to start a business!

She previously said she was looking for investment.

Now that she's finally found her way to him, she must have been hitting walls everywhere!

With no other choice, she decided to find him.

Qin Ze smiled.

People, once they have money, all sorts of monsters and demons come knocking.

Old classmates, old friends, people who wouldn't even look at you straight before—now they are all popping up one by one.

If he were still that laid-off, penniless Qin Ze.

Would Zhao Yutong have contacted him on her own?

The answer is obvious.

Qin Ze shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

Half an hour later, his phone rang again.

"Qin Ze, I'm here, where are you?"

Zhao Yutong's voice carried a hint of curiosity.

"Go directly to the sixth floor; there's an office at the end of the corridor, I'm inside."

"An office?"

Zhao Yutong's tone was clearly surprised:

"Your office? Don't tell me this five-star hotel is yours?"

Qin Ze smiled:

"Are you kidding?!"

"I wish I had that ability."

"I just find it convenient, so I'm staying at the hotel long-term, and for the sake of office convenience, I rented an office; just come on up."

"Oh, okay, I'll be right up."

After hanging up, Qin Ze sat on the sofa, crossing his legs, waiting for Zhao Yutong to arrive.

A few minutes later, a knock came at the door.

"Come in."

The door pushed open.

A woman wearing a white shirt and a dark blue hip-hugging skirt walked in.

Qin Ze looked up, and his eyes brightened slightly.

Zhao Yutong was different again from the last time they met!

At this moment, Zhao Yutong had her long, slightly wavy hair draped over her shoulders, and she wore exquisite light makeup.

The white shirt was tucked into the hip-hugging skirt, outlining her slender waist and rounded curves.

She stepped in a pair of black pointed-toe high heels, looking both elegant and intellectual.

But...

The arrogance of her returnee elite status couldn't be hidden no matter what.

From the moment she entered the door, her chin was slightly tilted, and her eyes carried a sense of scrutiny and assessment.

She looked around Qin Ze's office, a hint of surprise in her eyes.

Zhao Yutong withdrew her gaze and looked at Qin Ze:

"Not bad, Qin Ze, this office is decorated quite well."

"You now look completely like a successful person!"

Qin Ze stood up and smiled.

Zhao Yutong's compliment was a bit insincere.

"It's passable, just a temporary place to work."

As he spoke, he walked toward the coffee table:

"Come, sit, I'll pour you a cup of tea."

Zhao Yutong sat down on the sofa and placed her bag to the side.

And the moment she sat down, Qin Ze's gaze narrowed slightly.

He saw the status bar above Zhao Yutong's head.

【Zhao Yutong, Rating: S】

【Occupation: Starting a business, Emotion: Expectant, Anxious, Dissatisfied】

【Wish: Wants to secure investment as soon as possible, wants to succeed in business to prove herself, wants to emigrate abroad】

【Dilemma: Early stage of starting a business, difficult to secure investment】

Qin Ze looked at this line of text and couldn't help but laugh in his heart.

Not only starting a business but also wanting to emigrate abroad?

This Zhao Yutong has quite ambitious goals.

Thinking about starting a business and making money in the country on one hand, while thinking about taking the money earned and running away on the other.

But Qin Ze wasn't surprised!

After all, some people feel they have awakened and become enlightened once they go abroad!

They feel everything is better outside and everything is bad in the country!

They feel the outside is free and civilized, and feel that people in the country are living in a well...

After receiving a few years of Western education, they look down on the country even more from the bottom of their hearts.

But this is also normal; many people who return from studying abroad have this problem to some extent.

They feel the moon is rounder abroad and feel that everything in the country is bad.
