Chapter 113: Marry Me_1

Only then did Xiao Qingyu start addressing the matter at hand, his voice somewhat deep. "Hmm, at least with your emotions in check, you won’t unfairly lash out at others!"

Qin Muchuan arched an eyebrow. "Are you insinuating something?"

"Exactly!" Xiao Qingyu did not mince words with him either. "What has the loan officer at the bank done to cross you? You were incredibly impolite to the young lady, full of vulgarity and aggression. Can a decent girl tolerate that?"

Qin Muchuan scoffed lightly. "So you are standing up for her?"

"I guess you could say that!"

Qin Muchuan was slightly curious. "When has anyone ever managed to provoke you? I must say I’m a bit intrigued by this loan officer!"

"Remember, I’m entirely responsible for this project, I have an obligation to safeguard the rights of my employees!" Xiao Qingyu stated, his tone businesslike.

God knows, why did he care so much?

Qin Muchuan knew he had overreacted, but his anger wasn’t without reason. "Why would the bank assign this woman to handle our company’s loan project? It’s been years since anyone dared to trip me up like this!"

"She was merely following standard procedures!" Xiao Qingyu responded simply.

"In her eyes, does Huatai really lack financial standing? Could I have possibly run off with the loan?" Qin Muchuan asked angrily.

He was genuinely upset. He was used to being treated with respect by both banks and authorities over the years and having someone who blatantly challenged him was a bit of an anomaly.

"If Huatai isn’t weak, then why don’t you just sign the documents as the boss? Why make a fuss about it?" Xiao Qingyu asked gently.

"..."

Qin Muchuan wanted to impulsively say that he was just peeved.

But such irresponsible and irrational words, he found, couldn’t escape his mouth.

Xiao Qingyu, his friend of over thirty years, knew him too well and was well aware of his grievances. He laughed lightly and suggested, "Fine, if you want her to deliver the contract to you, it can be arranged. I will ask her to do so tomorrow. You, the young master, will not have to make a trip."

Offered a way out, Qin Muchuan couldn’t resist. "In return, you owe me a drink!"

"Deal!" Xiao Qingyu answered efficiently.

However, before hanging up, he suddenly asked, "Hmm? You wouldn’t really let her bring the supplementary agreement to your bed, would you?"

Given Xiao Qingyu’s nosiness, Qin Muchuan could be sure that he was interested in the loan officer. "If it happens naturally, why not?"

"..." Silence filled Xiao Qingyu’s end for a few seconds, before he spoke, "You better not misuse your power!"

"Heh... are you talking about yourself?" Qin Muchuan retorted.

...............

Lin Xiangwan barely made it through a proper dinner, only to keep getting calls from employees seeking her help with various issues.

Thus, she felt that her personal life was becoming inseparable from work, transforming into a twenty-four hour, round-the-clock occupation.

She needed to move.

Lin Haoran, sitting in the restaurant watching his busy mother, couldn’t help but contemplate.

Now that their dad would definitely not marry their mom, Haoran had to choose between them. He didn’t want to be a girl anymore! He decided everyone must have a chance to switch back.

Just as he was deep in thought, someone hit him hard on the head, causing his vision to blur.

"Who?" Lin Haoran put down his chopsticks and turned to see.

Qin Yutong stood before him, red-eyed with tear streaks on her face. "Bastard!"

"I don’t know you!" Lin Haoran refused to admit knowing her. "Why did you hit me?"

"We look identical and yet you claim not to recognize me!" said Qin Yutong between gritted teeth and in a low voice.

Thankfully, she was wearing girls’ clothes now, which avoided raising any suspicion from others around them.

"Looking identical doesn’t mean I know you!" Lin Haoran stubbornly retorted.

Tears streamed down Qin Yutong’s face, a sight pitiable enough to squeeze one’s heart. "Do... you truly not recognize your sister?"

"..."

Uh, Lin Haoran felt a cold sweat on his forehead.

His heart was so soft, especially when a girl cried; it softened even further.

Even if it was his sister, he simply couldn’t bear to see her cry.

Seeing this, Qin Yutong continued to cry, her voice choked up. "Just now, dad beat me up because of you, my butt still hurts. You still say you don’t recognize me?"

Tears streamed down Lin Haoran’s face. "Sis, I’m sorry!"

"If you truly feel sorry, then follow me!" Qin Yutong turned and walked towards a corner.

Wiping away his tears, Lin Haoran followed her...

............

Just after Lin Xiangwan finished dealing with her work and returned to the dining hall, she unexpectedly bumped into Qin Muchuan.

Initially, she wanted to pretend she didn’t see him, but he kept staring at her.

The golden sunset reflecting off the shimmering waves outside framed him in its glow, casting a golden hue around him, making him seem more upright. He was tall and lean, each part radiating masculine strength.

Especially under the sunlight, his facial features seemed even more profound. His firm face, the straight nose, those distressed and sexy eyes, the cold lips held tightly together... were all exceptionally attractive, significantly more handsome than any celebrity.

Though she despised him, she couldn’t deny he was incredibly charming, and she was genuinely attracted to his appearance.

What can she do? She was a sucker for good looks!

He kept gazing at her, making her feel a bit nervous. She had to break the awkward silence. "What? Remorseful now for hitting the child? Do you regret it?"

Qin Muchuan blinked before asking a shocking question. "Would you like to get married?"

"What?" Lin Xiangwan’s eyes widened.

"Do you want to get married?"

"Of course I do!" Lin Xiangwan’s answer was so genuine it bordered on fury. "If it weren’t for you, I would already be married. It’s all your fault!"

"Then, what if I marry you?" Qin Muchuan asked.

"What?" Lin Xiangwan was truly shocked, her eyes wide.

Tired of the lengthy conversation, Qin Muchuan continued. "I don’t care about how many men you’ve had in the past. As long as you behave after marriage and don’t mess around outside, that’s all that matters."

"What?" Lin Xiangwan seemed too surprised to say anything else.

"Become my daughter’s mother!" He declared, grabbing her arm.

Her willingness to argue with him for the children demonstrated her love for them. It was a commendable quality!
