Chapter 260: 264 Good Advice_1

Qin Muchuan’s phone rang, requiring his urgent attention, and he quickly returned to his office.

Su Yueze and Lin Xiangwan looked at each other, both completely baffled.

"What did your boss Qin mean just now? Has he decided to end the beauty pageant?" Su Yueze asked, blinking.

Lin Xiangwan shook her head in confusion. "I have no idea!"

Looking at a bunch of beautiful women stored in his computer and the hundreds of thousands already paid in promotional costs, Su Yueze was unsure how to proceed. "Why don’t you ask him if he intends to continue?"

Lin Xiangwan shook her head resolutely. "I’m not asking. What right do I have to question him? As if I really care about his decision!"

Su Yueze contemplated for a moment. "You’re sure you’re not going to ask?"

"You ask him if you want to!" Lin Xiangwan looked at him.

What she really wanted to know was whether he planned to cancel it!

"I’m not asking!" Su Yueze thought, there’s no way he should bear the losses while the two of them were just keeping each other guessing.

Think about the advertising, today the online ads just went up, and the TV ads would be out by the evening.

She has wasted so much manpower and resources. Wasn’t she just messing with him?

They didn’t even invite him for lunch!

Best not to inquire about it at all, just wait and see who gets anxious!

Seeing his indifference, Lin Xiangwan was itching with impatience, wanting to run over and ask him right away.

But as soon as she had this impulse, she pulled back!

Isn’t she being too presumptuous?

It’s better not to ask. If he really wants to cancel it, he will.

"Is there anything else you need from me here? I’ll take off first!" Lin Xiangwan looked at the chaotic room.

Everything had been thrown into the disorder by Su Yueze in the span of a day!

"Up to you, I’m not paying your salary anyway!" Su Yueze said indifferently.

This was indeed a vague situation!

"Well, I’m leaving then!"

Lin Xiangwan picked up her bag and left the office slightly gleeful.

Actually, she had a feeling that Qin Muchuan was not completely indifferent towards her!

He should still care about her!

As she left the company, Lin Xiangwan cheerfully called the housekeeper. "Aunt Liu, I will buy groceries tonight, and we can cook dinner together when I get back!"

"Good, good!" Butler Liu replied, she couldn’t stop smiling.

No sooner had Lin Xiangwan hung up the phone and was preparing to take the subway, she unexpectedly ran into Zhou Ziqing.

"Ziqing!" Lin Xiangwan looked at the woman standing in front of her.

Zhou Ziqing laughed. "Ha, I had been standing here for a moment, I thought you didn’t see me."

"Where were you heading?" Lin Xiangwan asked, looking around.

Zhou Ziqing pointed toward a well-known internet company. "I just finished discussing some advertising matters."

"Oh! Are you heading back to the office?" Lin Xiangwan didn’t want to delay her work.

Zhou Ziqing waved her off. "No, I’ve already informed my boss that I’m taking the afternoon off after my meeting. The driver has already left. I’m going to buy some groceries for my daughter, she loves the meat dumplings I make. It’s been a while since I last made them!"

"That’s perfect. I was heading to the market too. Do you want to go together?" Lin Xiangwan pointed to a location not far away. "There’s a small market down there. It has really fresh vegetables!"

"Great, so we can buy groceries and then take the subway back home!"

"Yeah!"

"Oh, by the way, Xiangwan, I saw an advertisement just now, do you know about it?" Zhou Ziqing suddenly said after walking a few steps.

"Which advertisement?" Lin Xiangwan hadn’t yet cottoned on.

"So, you really don’t know?" Zhou Ziqing looked at her sympathetically, as if she didn’t want to be the one to break the news.

Lin Xiangwan was completely baffled, her heart pounding. "What? Does it have something to do with me?"

"Oh, never mind, since you don’t know." Zhou Ziqing decided not to say anymore.

Being given vague information like this only roused one’s curiosity. "Ziqing, what is it? Just tell me!"

Zhou Ziqing gave her a long look before deciding whether to speak it. "Actually, even if I don’t tell you now, you’ll find out anyway later! Well, I might as well just tell you now. Do you know that ’Huatai’ is planning to hold a beauty pageant?"

So, it was this! She was scared to death, thinking it was something else. "Oh, I know!"

Her nonchalant reaction made Ziqing look at her with surprise. "Aren’t you happy? Your husband is the CEO of Huatai, did he consult with you before making this decision...."

"No, it’s his business!" He indeed didn’t consult her about this matter.

"Have you talked to him about it?" Ziqing asked again.

"No!"

"Why don’t you communicate with him? You guys are a married couple!" Ziqing didn’t understand her reaction.

Lin Xiangwan didn’t know how to explain the situation. If she really told Ziqing, this advocate of women’s rights, she would definitely give her a lecture. "It’s his company’s decision, I’m just his wife, I don’t think I have the right to interfere!"

"Oh ..." Ziqing looked at her with sympathy. "I get the feeling you’re quite afraid of your husband, and it seems you have a very low status at home."

"Hehe..." Lin Xiangwan gave a dry laugh.

She really didn’t like such words, even if Ziqing had her best interests at heart!

"You should learn to fight back!"

"Alright, I will pay attention in the future!"

Ziqing looked at her worriedly. "And do you know? I really hate these beauty pageants. All those girls will go crazy and throw themselves at your husband, you must be careful!"

"Really?" Lin Xiangwan wasn’t worried about her husband being mobbed, just surprised at the situation itself.

She believed there could be some aggressive contestants.

But many, many of them throwing themselves at her husband? She found that hard to believe!

This was a beauty pageant, it wasn’t a mistress selection contest!

"Absolutely! I’ve seen it numerous times overseas, and it’s the same in our country. Nowadays, there’s no bottom line in the entertainment circle!" Zhou Ziqing shook her head in disapproval. "Take our company’s recent model selection for example. We had to choose two individuals from a hundred professional models. Surprisingly, even I received hints over the phone from the models!"

"Really? Were they male models?" Lin Xiangwan wanted to laugh.

"Not just the male models, but also female models! I don’t know what they were thinking. Do I have such heavy tastes? Just because my boyfriend is not around doesn’t mean I don’t have a boyfriend. It’s not as if I’m desperate!"

"Hehe..." Lin Xiangwan burst out laughing again.

Zhou Ziqing shot her a long look. "I’m serious! You should not take it as a joke. You must communicate with your husband properly and cancel this beauty pageant!"
