Chapter 153 Something is Wrong
"Really, Zhang Bin, that's fantastic!"
Zhou Nannan felt suddenly revitalized.
The gloom in her heart was swept away.
Even if Qin Yu had some connections and Liu Xiaoxiao was a rich and beautiful woman, they were at most just a bit wealthy.
Could they compare with Zhang Bin's cousin-in-law?
The man is a district chief, a dignified national civil servant. With a flick of his finger, Qin Yu and Liu Xiaoxiao could be in big trouble.
"Yeah, I asked several times before they agreed to do this favor. Make sure to arrange the dinner at a high-end place, and then my cousin-in-law and I will come. Once you've vented your anger, we'll go to a hotel...."
Experience exclusive tales on empire
Zhang Bin had already invested quite a bit of effort into Zhou Nannan, and tonight, as long as he helped her get back at Qin Yu and Liu Xiaoxiao, he would surely get her into bed.
"Oh... I'll listen to you...."
Zhou Nannan pretended to be shy.
"Hehe, see you tonight!"
"See you tonight!"
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Nannan's eyes shifted subtly as she dialed Qin Jianjun's number.
Dut dut...
Once the call connected, she said, "Uncle Qin, I'd like to invite Yu ge and his girlfriend Miss Liu to dinner tonight. Could you tell him for me? I was wrong about the last incident, and I sincerely want to apologize!"
"Alright, I'll talk to Xiaoyu."
Qin Jianjun and Zhou Cuiping were out shopping when they received Zhou Nannan's call and agreed readily.
Knowing he didn't have "much time" left, he also wanted to spend more time with his son and take a look at this Ms. Liu "daughter-in-law."
At this moment.
Qin Yu had already arrived at Four Seas Corporation.
Yan Mingyu was dressed in a smart business suit paired with a black skirt, flesh-colored stockings, emanating dignified elegance with a touch of feminine allure.
A light touch of makeup revealed her bright eyes and white teeth, stunning enough to topple cities and kingdoms.
It appeared she took Li Xiaozu's return to the country quite seriously.
Seeing Qin Yu arrive, she stood up from behind her desk: "Let's go!"
"Haha, Director Yan, you look really beautiful today!"
Qin Yu had a sycophantic smile on his face.
"Wasn't I beautiful before?"
Yan Mingyu was in a good mood today and rarely joked with Qin Yu.
"Hehe, you are beautiful every day!"
Qin Yu chuckled stupidly.
A wave of restlessness surged within him; to think that his stunningly beautiful boss, who was his wife, could possibly be embraced, or even receive a peck on the lips from him, would be perfect.
"Stop your sweet-talking!"
Yan Mingyu gave Qin Yu a glance and the two headed together to the elevator, making their way down to the garage.
They drove straight to the airport in a Bentley.
On the way.
Qin Yu, while driving, stole a glance at Yan Mingyu in the rear view mirror and cautiously asked, "Director Yan, can I ask you a personal question?"
"Hmm, go ahead!"
Yan Mingyu nodded slightly.
"Can you... accept your husband holding you... or maybe kissing you?"
Qin Yu asked somewhat nervously.
Even though he and Yan Mingyu had made their relationship clear and she could accept him as her husband, she was too noble, like a goddess standing in the clouds. Even an extra glance felt like blasphemy.
Let alone embracing or kissing, he hardly dared to think about it.
"...What do you mean?"
Yan Mingyu, without blinking, watched Qin Yu's back and asked.
This bodyguard had been polite and well-mannered since he'd started working for her, but now he was getting bold, daring to ask her such an intimate question.
Something was definitely not right!
"Err... I was just asking. In our hearts, you are like a fairy who doesn't partake in the affairs of the mortal world. I was wondering if you, like any other woman, would engage in intimate contact with your husband."
Qin Yu said sheepishly.
"Oh... Emotionally speaking, the man who could become my husband would certainly be someone who could make my heart flutter, a man I liked. Logically speaking, we are legally recognized, and as a married couple with a certificate, intimate contact is quite normal!"
Yan Mingyu was truly fitting of a boss, responding in an organized and watertight manner.
"Hehe... I envy your husband!"
Qin Yu cracked a smile.
From what Yan Mingyu implied, as long as he could officially become her husband, it seemed he might get to hold her, maybe even steal a kiss on the lips.
He wondered what it would feel like to hold a goddess-level wife in his arms?
Qin Yu's mind began to wander.
"Qin Yu, let me be clear. I am a married woman and your boss, and you have a wife and are merely my employee. So, you best not harbor any unrealistic fantasies about me!"
Yan Mingyu, seeing Qin Yu's "peculiar" smile, couldn't help but slightly frown and spoke with an icy tone.
"Uh... As if I would dare!"
Qin Yu quickly shook his head.
"That would be for the best!"
Yan Mingyu said expressionlessly.
Damn...
Qin Yu glanced at the rearview mirror, inwardly murmuring to himself, was his affection for her that obvious?
He also wondered whether she said that because they both had "families," or if it was because she had no affection for him?
Qin Yu started to feel a bit of a headache.
Shortly after.
The airport.
Contrary to the grand entourage he had envisioned, Li Xiaozu arrived with just a young secretary through the security checkpoint.
He was in his fifties, wearing a baseball cap, not very tall, and gave off a rather ordinary vibe.
"Mingyu, it's been many years since we've met. The last time I saw you, you were just a little girl!"
Li Xiaozu's smile was genuine and infectious as he reached out and gently shook hands with Yan Mingyu.
"Uncle Li, welcome to East Sea!"
Yan Mingyu replied, smiling.
"Oh, let me introduce you—this is my bodyguard Qin Yu. Starting today, he will be responsible for your safety in East Sea!"
Yan Mingyu introduced Qin Yu to Li Xiaozu.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Qin. I've heard about you from the old man Yan; very impressive, awesome!"
Li Xiaozu extended his hand towards Qin Yu without any air of superiority.
"Hehe, you flatter me, Mr. Li!"n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Qin Yu smiled and shook hands with Li Xiaozu.
"Uncle Li, the hotel is arranged, let's have a meal first, and then you can rest well in the afternoon."
Yan Mingyu and Li Xiaozu had business interactions, and since their families had been acquainted for generations, hospitality was a must.
"Sure, Mingyu. I'll be relying on your hospitality in your city!"
Li Xiaozu said politely.
Then, the group left the airport and got into Yan Mingyu's Bentley.
Once on the ring road, Yan Mingyu and Li Xiaozu talked quietly about business matters in the back seat.
Li Xiaozu's secretary sat in the passenger seat, fiddling with a pen.
The gleam in her eyes was intermittent, indicating she wasn't just a regular secretary but more like Li Xiaozu's personal bodyguard.
"Tick, tock, tick, tock..."
The Bentley had excellent soundproofing; even the ticking of a clock could be heard clearly by Qin Yu.
"Something's not right!"
Qin Yu slammed on the brakes and said urgently, "Ms. Yan, Mr. Li, get out of the car, quick!"
"Qin Yu, what's the matter?"
Yan Mingyu was a bit slow to react.
"Never mind that, just get out, the farther from this car, the better!"
Qin Yu shouted loudly.
"Alright! Uncle Li, run!"
Yan Mingyu pulled Li Xiaozu out of the car and ran towards a landscaping tree.
The secretary in the passenger seat glanced at Qin Yu and asked indifferently, "What did you notice?"
What do you think?
