Chapter 286: 290 Returnee Boyfriend_1

"Yes!" The assistant took over and complained, "The CEO asked me to prepare the contract as soon as possible for the development project he wants to start immediately. I prepared it today, but he hasn’t come to sign it yet. The loan officer from the bank is going out of town tomorrow. Today they called me and said that if they don’t get the contract tonight, they can’t get it approved until ten days later! I’m urgently looking for the CEO!"

Lin Xiangwan was shocked. Was this software worth developing? She knew it wasn’t!

"I just called him, but nobody answered!" Lin Xiangwan shook the apple in her hand.

"What should we do then?"

"Why don’t you leave the contract here? He’ll see it in the evening!"

"I guess that’s the only option!" The assistant left the contract and walked away.

Lin Xiangwan was too shocked to say anything. After sitting down on the sofa, she picked up the contract again.

She carefully read through the plan step by step.

The investment for this project was neither large nor small, but it significantly exceeded the software’s value!

The benefits Qin Muchuan was offering to the other party were extraordinarily large, utterly unreasonably so.

Software development and ex-girlfriend, two seemingly unrelated words.

But one name flashed in her mind, connecting everything at once.

Zhou Ziqing.

Just returned from the USA, a high-performing graduate of a renowned U.S. university, she even had a boyfriend who developed software!

Could there be any connection?

If this person was Zhou Ziqing, everything would make sense.

Lin Xiangwan’s heart thumped wildly as fear enveloped all her senses.

If Qin Muchuan and Zhou Ziqing...

Then could Duoduo be Muchuan’s child?

Lin Xiangwan squeezed her eyes shut, not daring to think any further!

Please, let it not be, let it not be...

But the more she wanted to brush it off, the more she couldn’t.

She couldn’t stop thinking, couldn’t help it.

Some things are instinctive to women. She knew all of this was true.

The world couldn’t have such a coincidence; she could even project that Zhou Ziqing purposefully got close to her!

Therefore, she made a call...

She was indeed petty, she knew what drove her to do so. She wanted Zhou Ziqing to be jealous, to know who was the wife of Qin Muchuan, that their relationship could not be destroyed by an outsider.

She thought she was pretty cunning herself.

The pain between her legs struck her again, causing her to stagger slightly...

"Be careful!" The nurse quickly supported her. "Miss, what’s wrong? Why are you sweating so intensely?"

"Take me to Gynecology..." After saying these words, Lin Xiangwan collapsed, passed out like a deflated balloon.

.........

When Qin Muchuan arrived at the hospital after receiving a call, Lin Xiangwan had already regained consciousness.

She looked at him, her eyes filled with dissatisfaction, and she looked away.

Although Qin Muchuan felt guilty, he still showed a smile, quite pleased. "I just spoke to the doctor, you overstrained some ligaments, but it’s not serious, I’ll bear it in mind in the future!"

Bear it in mind?

So this is how he was going to apologize?

One’s threshold of enduring stress should improve over time. Had this happened an hour ago, she would probably have been very angry, might have cried, and felt pitiful for herself.

But now, there was a small hint of sweetness in her heart. At least, she was the woman who fainted from his exertion, isn’t she a bit masochistic?

Seeing Lin Xiangwan looking exhausted, her arm still hooked to an IV drip.

Qin Muchuan apologized again: "Yes, our workload this time indeed was too much, I won’t let you overwork in the future!"

Lin Xiangwan’s heart felt even angrier, and she cried even more.

This man... if he didn’t want her to overwork, then who would he want to overwork?

Does he intend to find someone else?

She wouldn’t agree to it!

Seeing her still crying, Qin Muchuan started to get a little anxious. "Sorry, where is it still uncomfortable? The doctor mentioned you had trouble urinating, how is that now?"

"..." Lin Xiangwan turned her cheek off and did not look at him.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to look at him, but didn’t want him to see her crying. She looked awful when crying.

Qin Muchuan checked her wound.

"Don’t... don’t tell me you’re thinking of doing it again in the hospital?" Lin Xiangwan asked nervously.

Her eyes were full of horror, as if she was facing a Flood Beast!

Seeing her trembling all over, Qin Muchuan couldn’t help but chuckle. "Don’t worry, I’m not interested in patients, you’re overthinking. Please recover quickly!" His words were cold, yet - their warmth touched her heart. His words were doting; this could be a form of love, right?

Finally, she stopped moving about.

"Do you want to eat something? Are you hungry?" Qin Muchuan asked. "You should be really hungry, right?"

She hadn’t eaten in a while!

Lin Xiangwan, without thinking, said straightforwardly, "I want to have beef rice!"

Qin Muchuan looked surprised.

"What? You think I eat a lot? Wanting to eat beef rice at this time?" Lin Xiangwan joked.

"No, I’ll have someone buy it then!" Qin Muchuan made a call and ordered a bunch of stuff!

"On second thought, never mind, I don’t want to eat anymore!" Lin Xiangwan quickly changed her mind.

"Why? If you’re hungry, eat. You don’t need to lose weight!" Qin Muchuan asked without hanging up the phone.

Lin Xiangwan shook her head. "I can’t eat here, it makes me nauseous."

Qin Muchuan nodded. "No need to buy then, hmm!"

His sudden gentleness made Lin Xiangwan slowly grow resentful again.

Does this man like her?

He doesn’t like her at all!

Otherwise, why wouldn’t he let her have children?

Otherwise, why would he invest in Zhou Ziqing’s boyfriend?

He likes another woman!

"Qin Muchuan, do you really want to divorce me?" Lin Xiangwan suddenly asked.

After asking, she regretted it. What was she doing?

He’s not saying anything, shouldn’t she avoid mentioning it first?

Wouldn’t it be better to pretend to know nothing about it?

"Why do you ask?" Qin Muchuan looked at her, trying to figure out what she was thinking.

"You’re treating me like this, are you not just trying to make me divorce you?" Xiangwan laughed. "Is it because your ex-girlfriend is back, and you’re starting to find all kinds of faults in me? You think your ex-girlfriend would make a great stepmother to your child?"

"Oh? Is that what you believe?" Qin Muchuan asked with a faint smile.

"Isn’t it? How great is your ex-girlfriend? Studied in the USA, now that she’s returned, she’s a highly educated returnee, she’s such a great match for you..." Lin Xiangwan said sarcastically, feeling sour and uncomfortable inside.
