Chapter 193: 196 Restless Heart8_1

Lin Xiangwan stood up. "Go ahead with your work then, don’t forget to take the lunch box home tonight!"

Qin Muchuan glanced at her and asked leisurely. "Got someone to meet?"

"No!"

"So why the hurry to leave?"

Lin Xiangwan gave an apologetic smile. "My phone has been ringing non-stop, I’m afraid it would disturb you!"

"Who’s calling?"

After thinking for a while, Lin Xiangwan decided to tell the truth. "Song Yichen!"

"Ah!" Qin Muchuan nodded in understanding. "So are you planning to answer?"

Her words caught Lin Xiangwan off guard and reminded her, yes, whether she should answer. "I don’t know!"

"You don’t know?" Qin Muchuan chuckled and looked at her. "If you’re so conflicted, it means you want to answer!"

Was she seeing wrongly? Why did it seem like annoyance flitted across his face? Was he jealous? "I don’t know what he wants from me over the phone? After all, I still own shares in Sheraton, what if it’s about work? But it could also be personal like, since I am so beautiful and intelligent, who could resist? He left me, and it wouldn’t be impossible for him to suddenly regret and come back for me!"

Qin Muchuan gave her a look of distaste. "Could you possibly be any more self-confident?"

"Of course!" Lin Xiangwan adjusted her hair and gazed at him adoringly. "You keep asking and asking, President Xiao, have you fallen for me?"

Seeing her flirty demeanor, Qin Muchuan couldn’t suppress a smile. "Yes, so behave yourself. If you dare to cuckold me, I won’t let you off!"

"So scary!" Lin Xiangwan shivered in mock fear. "Then, you have to keep a closer eye on me and ensure I don’t cheat..."

Qin Muchuan glared at her. "Don’t leave yet, answer if he calls!"

"Ok..." Even though he seemed severe, she still felt a sweet fluttering in her heart. She liked his domineering attitude towards her, it felt really good!

Ten minutes passed and the phone remained silent.

Qin Muchuan finished his lunch and started getting into work mode.

He was indeed busy, endlessly flipping through documents, typing on his computer, or on endless calls!

The phone calls were all about money, discussing things like tens of billions already in the account, or the allocation of several billions of funds.

Whether talking or keeping mouth shut, the money being moved never went lower than three billion.

Lin Xiangwan sat in his office, thoroughly shell-shocked.

Work, work, she needs to work, she needs to make money, a lot of money.

She really wanted to ask him how he managed to expand the company, how he made so much money.

Yet, she doesn’t even have a chance to butt in!

For example, now that two hours have passed and her phone hasn’t rung, could she go home?

"Hungry? Want to eat something? I can order!" He looked at her after ending a call.

"Oh... I’m not hungry, I am detoxing today!" Lin Xiangwan shook her head.

"Detox?" Qin Muchuan inquired with confusion.

"One day a week, I only drink yogurt or eat apples, it’s a detox day!"

"To lose weight?"

Lin Xiangwan nodded. "It can have weight loss effects!"

"Nonsense!"

"It’s not nonsense, it’s called health care, detoxing one day a week is really good for the body! Just think, we eat every day, the entire body’s parts are working all the time, it’s so tiring, you need to allow them some rest!"

On hearing this, Qin Muchuan laughed. "Seems to make some sense!"

"Of course!" Lin Xiangwan raised her head with pride, then looked at him normally. "I am very bored here, can I leave?"

"Leave?"

Lin Xiangwan continued asking. "Two hours have passed, I think Song Yichen wouldn’t call, do you, boss Qin, still need to monitor?"

Qin Muchuan glanced at the clock. "Wait two more hours, we’ll go pick the kid up together."

"Alright!" Lin Xiangwan looked surprised at first, then a smile spread across her face.

Go pick the kid up together, that sounds great!

"Or, do you have any work I can help on? I promise I won’t steal any company secrets!" Lin Xiangwan promised with her hand over her head.

"I know it’s hard for you to sit around, but there really isn’t much you can help with here, all are connected data! However, I could actually use your help when it comes to entertaining clients!" Qin Muchuan said with a laugh.

"Haha!" Lin Xiangwan chuckled. "You mean drinking? If drinking can solve the problem, you can call me, I can definitely help! But, as for selling my looks, I’m not up for that!"

"You wish to sell your looks?" Qin Muchuan asked laughingly.

"Of course not, even if I wanted to, I’m not capable!" Lin Xiangwan looked at his office again with envy. "No wonder you said my office was no good, comparing with yours, mine is a pigsty!"

"No need for comparison, your office is a pigsty anyway!"

Lin Xiangwan ignored his sarcasm and continued to observe every corner of his office.

This place really is great!

’Knock knock knock...’ Someone knocked on the door.

"Come in!"

At Qin Muchuan’s command, the office door opened and in came a woman dressed in this year’s latest brand dress. She was professionally dressed with a hint of allure, her lightly applied makeup accentuated her vibrant looks. "CEO, this cheque needs your personal signature, our Financial Director sent me over with it!"

"Hmm..." Qin Muchuan quickly signed his name.

The woman left holding the folder.

"She’s really beautiful!" Lin Xiangwan exclaimed genuinely.

Qin Muchuan nodded. "She’s really capable, a Chicago MBA Graduate! She was in charge of managing Huatai’s business in the USA; I had her transferred back just a year ago to handle Huatai’s pharmaceutical company’s listing issues."

Seeing him endlessly praising someone else, Lin Xiangwan felt extremely uncomfortable and dissatisfied. "What if she went overseas for an MBA? If it weren’t for me back then... I could have applied to overseas universities too, specifically, I was preparing to apply to Harvard!"

"Hmm, I do believe you’re capable of it!" Qin Muchuan said, seemingly really convinced.

"You’re patronizing me, you don’t believe in me, do you?" Lin Xiangwan sounded unhappy.

"No!"

"Then why did you answer so briskly?" She was clearly dissatisfied.

"Because... it is well known that Chinese students are good at studying, those who make it abroad through their own efforts can always get scholarships, Huatai funds huge sums every year to reward groups of Chinese students studying abroad. "But in reality, few of them can really prove their worth!"

"I can definitely prove my worth!" Lin Xiangwan said confidently.
