Chapter 651 -391: _4

Huo Yanshu suddenly blurted out a question.

Rong Yanqiao instinctively replied, “That was me being genuine. I’m a bit tired. If there are any activities later, can I rest in the room?”

“It’s so late, there won’t be any more activities. Besides, Lin Quan is an expectant mother.”

Huo Yanshu handed her a glass of water.

Rong Yanqiao smiled, “I mean if there were. If not, even better.”

As she spoke, she yawned.

Huo Yanshu gently said, “If you’re tired, go rest.”

Seeing Huo Yanshu’s stance, it seemed like he wouldn’t rest anytime soon.

She had no choice but to lie down.

Grabbing her phone, the first thing she saw was a message from Rong Qingze.

[Are you planning to use your charms in exchange for the H company’s contract?]

Rong Yanqiao immediately pictured Rong Qingze’s face in her mind.

He was half-smirking, watching everything.

She didn’t reply.

Instead, she just waited.

Huo Yanshu stayed awake all night, alternating between his phone and computer.

During that time, his assistant even came in, discussing professional terms with Huo Yanshu.

Rong Yanqiao listened carefully; it was related to the H company and the Lin Corporation.

Huo Yanshu’s plan was to make the Lin Corporation a stepping stone.

Her target was the H company contract in Huo Yanshu’s hands.

Since Huo Yanshu wanted to use the Lin Corporation as a springboard, they shared a common goal, as Zhao Yixing was handling many matters of the Lin Corporation.

She waited a long time until Huo Yanshu went into the bathroom.

The moment she heard the water running in the bathroom, she quickly sat up.

Noticing Huo Yanshu’s phone on the coffee table, she swiftly rushed over.

Unfortunately, Huo Yanshu’s phone was password-protected.

However, she knew everything about Wenming.

She entered Wenming’s birthday, and the phone unlocked.

She quickly found the document Huo Yanshu had shown her, sent it to herself, and deleted the message.

Then placed the phone back on the coffee table.

At that moment, Huo Yanshu’s phone suddenly rang.

Rong Yanqiao’s heart tightened.

After considering, she took the phone to the bathroom door, “Yanshu, there’s a call for you.”

“Just leave it there.”

“Okay.”

Hearing Huo Yanshu’s voice, Rong Yanqiao placed the phone back where it was.

She leaned against the sofa, glanced at the stolen document again, and sent it to Rong Qingze.

Rong Qingze sent a message back.

[I need to see you.]

She didn’t reply.

But after Huo Yanshu finished his shower, she proactively mentioned, “Yanshu, I need to go. I have a play to follow up on. If nothing comes up, I’ll come find you again. You can slowly teach me about the H company’s cooperation.”

“Okay.”

Huo Yanshu didn’t ask her to stay.

“Then take a good rest, you didn’t sleep on the bed last night, so you probably didn’t sleep well.”

“Mm.”

Upon hearing Huo Yanshu’s response, Rong Yanqiao then left.

It was just seven o’clock. Rong Yanqiao thought about where Rong Qingze might be and headed to the villa under his name.

She went to the study.

Opening the door, she indeed saw Rong Qingze.

He was wearing black loungewear, holding a lit cigarette in his hand.

She hadn’t slept all night, but he seemed so leisurely.

“Uncle, why did you want to see me?”

“Can’t I see you without a reason? You sent me the document so early, did you use your body to get it?”

Rong Qingze extinguished the cigarette in his hand.

Rong Yanqiao was a bit surprised, “Uncle, you called me over just to confirm this?”

She knew very well this was a man’s possessiveness.

A man could have no feelings for a woman, but!

He absolutely cannot allow other men in her heart or body.

Rong Yanqiao laughed, “Of course not. This document is just a part. If I had to trade my body every time, wouldn’t that make me seem incompetent?”

Rong Qingze didn’t respond, his dark eyes silently scrutinizing her.

That gaze seemed to ask: Did Huo Yanshu really not touch you?

She and Huo Yanshu were a couple, attending events together publicly and spent last night in the same room.

Rong Yanqiao didn’t say anything; she took off her clothes.

Then she met Rong Qingze’s gaze, “Uncle, do you think it looks like it?”

There wasn’t a trace on her body.

Rong Qingze would never leave any marks on her.

Especially since most men cared about that membrane.

If Huo Yanshu had touched her, their relationship would have ended.

Besides, Huo Yanshu wouldn’t touch her.

Rong Qingze’s thin lips moved, just about to say something, but Rong Yanqiao interrupted him first.

“Uncle, do you have any more questions? If not, I’ll sleep. I didn’t sleep all night, and I managed to sneak these when Huo Yanshu went to the shower this morning.”

As she spoke, Rong Yanqiao yawned, genuinely looking tired.

Rong Qingze said nothing, implicitly agreeing.

She just curled up on the sofa to sleep.

She knew that without Rong Qingze’s permission, he didn’t like others touching his things.

She woke up in the afternoon.

Seeing Rong Qingze at the computer, Rong Yanqiao was a bit surprised, “Uncle, didn’t you go to work?”

“Mm.”

Rong Qingze responded indifferently.

“Then I…”

Rong Yanqiao tentatively asked.

“Do whatever you should do, but… at this time, it’s best not to casually leave my villa.” Rong Qingze didn’t even look at her when he said that.

“Okay.”

If it wasn’t a good time to leave, she wouldn’t leave.

To her surprise, when she picked up her phone, it was a message from Huo Yanshu.

[Are you learning to please your uncle?]

[Why would you say that? I’m learning for myself.]

For Huo Yanshu to ask such a question, the most direct possibility was: after receiving that contract, Rong Qingze had already taken action.

Therefore, Huo Yanshu came to ask her.

However, Huo Yanshu’s disposition was fairly composed.

If it were someone else, they’d probably have confronted her already.

Huo Yanshu didn’t reply again.

Given Huo Yanshu’s power, if he investigated, he would surely find out she was on Rong Qingze’s territory.

Including what Rong Qingze was doing, Huo Yanshu had already figured it out.

“Uncle, did you take action right after getting that document?”

“Should I have waited until the New Year?”

Rong Qingze retorted bluntly.

Rong Yanqiao didn’t hide anything, “Huo Yanshu came looking for me. He’s definitely suspicious of me, especially since I’ve been here for so long. Uncle, this is your issue, don’t blame me…”

If Huo Yanshu realized, given that he saw her as a substitute, there wouldn’t be deep feelings, he naturally wouldn’t keep her.
