Chapter 80

Qin Ze paused and did not speak.

The pitch-black silence all around seemed to provide the answer.

Jiang Xin's body trembled, and her breathing suddenly became rapid.

"President Qin!"

"Why aren't you saying anything?"

In the darkness, Jiang Xin completely surrendered herself to Qin Ze.

……

At four in the morning, the sky began to turn pale.

A hint of white appeared on the distant skyline, then slowly stained with orange-red.

"The sunrise is coming," Qin Ze said.

Jiang Xin raised her head and looked toward the east.

The first ray of sunlight pierced through the clouds and spilled onto the earth.

The entire Jiangcheng seemed to be plated with a layer of gold, looking unimaginably beautiful.

Jiang Xin was mesmerized.

And Jiang Xin was still immersed in the memories of last night.

Recalling her confession to Qin Ze at the bar last night!

Now that she was sober, she felt only shame.

After the sun had fully risen, the number of people on the mountain gradually increased.

Having tossed and turned all night without rest, Qin Ze also felt terrible.

Afterward, Qin Ze helped Jiang Xin down the mountain.

Jiang Xin was sober, but her legs were still a bit weak, and she was unsteady on her feet.

The two walked to the parking lot halfway up the mountain and hailed a taxi back to the city.

On the way, Qin Ze's phone rang.

It was the property manager of the Jiang City Center Building.

As soon as Qin Ze heard the caller's identity, he knew it was about the handover of the office building procedures.

"Hello, Mr. Qin, I am Xiao Liu from Jiang City Center Property Co., Ltd.!"

"Your transfer procedures have been completed. If you have time today, you can send someone over to pick up the relevant documents."

"Or you can give me an address, and we can have someone deliver them directly!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Ze said:

"No need, I'll have someone come by this afternoon to pick them up. I'll send you a message then..."

Qin Ze hung up the phone and called Jiang Wan directly.

"Jiang Wan, arrange for someone from Qingfeng to go to the Jiang City Center Building property office and pick up a document for me."

"Yes, go now."

"After picking it up, deliver it to the front desk of the Fusheng Hotel."

After making the arrangements, it was only 7:30 in the morning when they reached the hotel entrance.

Qin Ze walked into the lobby with Jiang Xin, and the receptionist immediately recognized him.

"Good morning, President Qin!"

"Morning," Qin Ze nodded, "Has anyone been to my office?"

"Not yet."

"Alright, when someone delivers a document later, put it directly in my office."

"Understood, President Qin."

Qin Ze took the elevator upstairs with Jiang Xin and arrived at his private office.

The office was large and decorated simply, with a desk by the window and a sofa and coffee table nearby.

Jiang Xin walked in, looked around, and was shocked.

Qin Ze then began to introduce it:

"I usually work here; the hotel office is convenient to use! If you need to find me, come directly here!"

"Then where do you live?"

At this moment, Jiang Xin's legs were still a bit weak! As soon as she entered, she hurriedly lay down on the sofa!

It wasn't that she was being casual!

It was just that her body was truly too exhausted!

"I live right here in this hotel!"

"You usually live here?" Jiang Xin looked incredulous!

She had indeed seen on her phone before that some celebrities didn't like living at home!

They just liked living in hotels!

Afterward, Qin Ze and Jiang Xin lay down and chatted intermittently!

Just as they were talking, his phone rang again.

This time it was Jiang Xin's phone.

She glanced at the caller ID, and her face changed.

"It's... it's our Branch Manager."

"Answer it," Qin Ze said, "Put it on speaker."

Jiang Xin took a deep breath, answered the call, and pressed speaker.

"Hello, Branch Manager."

"Jiang Xin!"

A middle-aged man's voice came from the other end, carrying obvious displeasure.

"What is going on with you today? It's this late and you haven't clocked in!"

"Branch Manager, I intend to resign," Jiang Xin said directly.

There was silence on the other end for two seconds.

"What did you say?"

"I said, I want to resign," Jiang Xin repeated, her tone much firmer than before.

"Nonsense!" The Branch Manager's voice rose sharply, "Resign? Do you think the bank is run by your family, where you can come and go as you please?"

"I have already decided."

"I don't agree!" the Branch Manager said sternly.

"You still have clients whose handovers aren't finished and business that hasn't been processed. Leaving now is a serious dereliction of duty!"

"I will call those clients to explain the situation; you can find someone else to take over the business."

"Jiang Xin, let me tell you, if you dare to leave, don't even think about getting this month's salary!"

"I don't want it anymore."

"You—" The Branch Manager was choked up, his tone suddenly becoming cold and sinister.

"Jiang Xin, don't be ungrateful. Do you think resigning is the end of it? I remember all those dirty things you've done."

Jiang Xin's face turned pale.

"What do you mean?"

"What do I mean?" The Branch Manager sneered, "You drinking with clients, maintaining a relationship with me—if these things get out, do you think you can still survive in Jiangcheng?"

Jiang Xin's hands began to tremble.

She subconsciously looked at Qin Ze.

Qin Ze nodded at her, his expression calm.

Jiang Xin gritted her teeth and suddenly shouted into the phone:

"Expose it then! If you have the ability, expose it! Anyway, I have nothing to lose!"

"Let me tell you, I have dirt on you too!"

Jiang Xin was going all out.

"If you aren't afraid of dying, let's try it and see!"

After saying this, she hung up the phone directly.

Her hands were still shaking, and her chest was heaving violently.

Qin Ze walked over and patted her shoulder.

"Well done."

Jiang Xin raised her head, her eyes red again.

"President Qin, was I too impulsive just now?"

"Not impulsive," Qin Ze said, "To deal with people like this, you have to be even more ruthless than them."

He glanced at the time.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the bank."

"Why go to the bank?"

"To withdraw money," Qin Ze smiled, "I deposited so much money in there, it's time to take it out and use it."

"By the way, I'll help you finish your resignation procedures."

"And also, help you vent your anger!"

Jiang Xin hesitated for a moment, then nodded vigorously.

"Okay!"

The two went downstairs and took a taxi to the bank where Jiang Xin worked.

When they arrived at the bank, it was exactly nine o'clock, just opening for business.

Qin Ze walked directly to the VIP window and took out his bank card.

"Withdraw money, all of it."

The teller took the card, swiped it, and after seeing the balance, her eyes widened.

"Sir, how... how much do you want to withdraw?"

"All of it," Qin Ze repeated.

"But... but this amount is too large, it requires an appointment..."

"Then make an appointment," Qin Ze said, "Make it now."

"Alright, please wait a moment."

The teller began to operate the machine in a flurry.

At this moment, a bald middle-aged man walked out of the office, and seeing Jiang Xin, his face darkened.

"Jiang Xin, you still dare to come here?"

Jiang Xin straightened her back.

"Branch Manager, I'm here to handle my resignation procedures."

"I said, I don't agree!"

"Your disagreement is useless," Qin Ze turned around and looked at the Branch Manager.

The Branch Manager was stunned and sized Qin Ze up a few times.

He quickly recognized Qin Ze!

When Qin Ze came to the bank to deposit money, he had met him once with the manager!

And Qin Ze had just made a large deposit yesterday!

He knew that too! After all, there were very few people who deposited millions every month or every week in each bank!

"President Qin! Why are you here?"

"Why do you want to withdraw all the money you deposited before? Many of these deposits are earning you interest..."
