Luan Qiaoqing's suddenly raised voice startled Qin Lou and Song Shu. They could not help but stop and stare at each other secretly for a short moment. Song Shu was the first to look away and look diagonally across the fork in the road.
On the way here, the few people who were talking with their heads half lowered were also obviously startled. Their voices stopped at the same time, and then they recalled the name that was called out, and subconsciously looked at one of the two leaders.
Chu Xiangbin paused for two seconds and suddenly smiled, "What a coincidence, Minister Luan."
"… "
Luan Qiaoqing almost gritted her teeth. Without a second thought, she rushed past Qin Lou and Song Shu, who were walking side by side in front of her, and didn't even have time to grab Song Shu's hand when he stretched out his hand to stop her.
When everyone came back to their senses, Luan Qiaoqing had already strode in front of Chu Xiangbin.
The physical memory of fighting with a group of little girls in school days was probably still there. Luan Qiaoqing was so angry that she chose the best place to attack without thinking -
She grabbed Chu Xiangbin's tie, which was half pushed into his suit jacket, with one hand, and pulled him down fiercely with a fierce look on her face.
"… Why!"
The people behind Chu Xiangbin panicked, and some subconsciously raised their hands to help.
Chu Xiangbin raised his arm, signaling them to stop. He himself didn't seem to mind that Luan Qiaoqing was holding his tie tightly, and instead laughed.
"Minister Luan, we haven't seen each other for just over a week. Even if you miss me, you don't have to be so aggressive the first time we meet, right?"
“… I want you to die!” Luan Qiaoqing gritted her teeth.
The end of Chu Xiangbin's tie had been pulled out of his suit by her. She twisted it half a circle with her backhand, forcing Chu Xiangbin to lower himself a little further towards her.
Luan Qiaoqing's gaze swept across the people behind Chu Xiangbin like a barbed hook, and when she retracted her gaze, it was already cold.
She forced a smile, "Is this your new boss? You've only been in the team for a few days and you've already been bribed. You really don't take yourself seriously - you're afraid that I'll settle accounts with you, so you didn't even go through the HR department, and you directly handed in your resignation letter to the general manager, and then you ran away in fear with your tail between your legs?"
Chu Xiangbin didn't say anything, but someone in the back row couldn't stand it anymore. "Hey, you're so young, why are you talking so harshly? And if you want to talk, just talk. Let Mr. Chu go first! Otherwise, I'll call the security guard. Will you let go-"
"It doesn't matter."
Chu Xiangbin interrupted the man and raised his arm forward again, but he did not try to break free from Luan Qiaoqing's hand. Instead, he bent his knuckles and rubbed them across his chin.
Then Chu Xiangbin stared at Luan Qiaoqing, whose eyes were cold with anger, for two seconds, turned his gaze away, and sneered.
"Let me introduce you to Luan Qiaoqing, the head of the HR department of Vio Capital. She is also my former... colleague."
Some people heard the pause in Chu Xiangbin's voice and started to laugh.
"Oh, just a former colleague? Looking at this situation, I thought it was your ex-girlfriend, Mr. Chu, who caught you cheating with the princess and came to seek revenge."
"That's right. Besides, people go to higher places and water flows to lower places. You guys, Vio, can't retain talents. What's the point of coming to Mr. Chu to vent your anger?"
"I think Vio is not a good company to hire a woman as the head of the HR department."
"… "
Several people came here to praise Chu Xiangbin and Chang Ting who was standing next to him, so they naturally used jokes to attack them in whatever way they wanted.
Luan Qiaoqing's face turned red with anger at the barrage of attacks, but the more anxious she became, the less she could speak.
Until a soft laugh sounded from behind her on the road.
Everyone paused their fire and looked in the direction where the laughter came from - as soon as their eyes touched the man standing lazily, their expressions began to subtly change to evade and retreat.
So the focus naturally shifted to the woman next to the man who was covering her mouth and smiling with her face turned away.
The woman has a beautiful face. Even a side profile is undoubtedly beautiful. The facial features of eyebrows, eyes, nose and lips are streamlined, delicate and flawless. At this moment, her half-hidden smile is also particularly charming.
Someone was silent for two seconds, and finally couldn't help but speak.
"W-What are you laughing at?"
"… "
When Song Shu heard the voice, he finally suppressed the smile that had not yet reached his eyes, and looked up at the few people coldly.
"What's wrong with a woman being a minister? You're still making jokes about gender at this kind of event. Do you think your entire ability and reputation depend on that thing down there? I wonder if your mother will regret throwing away the placenta and keeping you after she knows about this thing she gave birth to?"
"you!"
The man who had spoken earlier suddenly changed his expression. It was obvious that he had never expected that such a beautiful and gentle-looking woman could be so sharp and "inconspicuous" in her words.
He was so angry that his face turned red and his eyes were fierce, looking like he was ready to attack at any time.
Facing that gaze, Qin Lou and Song Shu took a step forward almost at the same time. Without any eye contact or words, they walked forward casually.
At the same time, Qin Lou smiled lazily and took over the conversation, "Think carefully before you act. It won't take much effort to knock you down, but first, I don't want to dirty my hands, and second... there's no point in bullying a bunch of old guys."
"!"
Several people's faces suddenly became even uglier.
But they had to admit in their hearts that what Qin Lou said was absolutely right. Among the people present on Qinrui's side, apart from Chu Xiangbin, who was not really considered a member of the company, the youngest Chang Ting was already over 60 and approaching 40.
The young man on the other side, whom no one in the investment world dares to look down upon, is only about 26 or 27 years old at most.
The huge gap between qualifications, abilities and ages made Qin Rui's people look as upset as if a dish of soy sauce had been overturned.
Song Shu and Qin Lou stopped at the forked path. Song Shu's eyes drifted away and he said calmly, "Minister Luan, dinner is more important. Don't waste your time on someone who is not worth it."
Luan Qiaoqing's hands froze for a moment. Although she was a little unwilling, Song Shudu had already spoken, so she didn't dare to make any more trouble.
Luan Qiaoqing loosened Chu Xiangbin's tie and glared at him fiercely before turning around, "I know that you betrayed me at this juncture and it must be related to the R&D of the product team. I misjudged you for doing such a shameful thing. Remember to be careful from today on and don't let anyone catch you - otherwise I will kill you with my own hands!"
After saying that, Luan Qiaoqing turned around with gritted teeth and walked back to Song Shu and Qin Lou.
Chu Xiangbin fixed his tie only after Luan Qiaoqing went back. Chang Ting beside him turned his head to take a look, then turned to Qin Lou with a smile.
"Boss Qin, your subordinate is still a little young and hot-tempered. It's just a small matter, why do you have to tear each other apart and make both sides look bad?"
Qin Lou also laughed, "It's called tearing apart only when you have face, but there's no such thing for people who don't care about face."
"!" Chang Ting's smile froze.
He was already full of jealousy towards Qin Lou, and when he bumped into him this time, he thought that the other party would be very dejected, but he didn't expect that he would still be the one who suffered a setback.
Chang Ting's mind was racing. He just wanted to find something to attack Qin Lou immediately so that he could also have a taste of humiliation.
After a few seconds of stalemate, Chang Ting suddenly seemed to think of something. He shifted his gaze to Song Shu who was standing next to Qin Lou.
"Is this the beautiful assistant that President Qin is rumored to have hired
"That's right, Mr. Chang." There are naturally people who are used to flattering Chang Ting, and they are best at figuring out Chang Ting's thoughts. At this time, someone immediately smiled and said, "I heard that her name is Qin Qing, and she looks a bit like Mr. Qin's first love."
Chang Ting nodded, "Oh, I see. I tell you, little girl, Vio's future days may be difficult. If you really need money, why don't you just come with me?"
When Chang Ting said this, the others burst into laughter, but they choked up one after another after just a few seconds of laughter.
The man opposite, who had been lazy, seemed to be touched at this moment. In an instant, his eyes and expression revealed a gloomy and irritable mood.
When glanced at by that pair of dark eyes, the people on Qinrui's side felt a chill around their necks, as if a freshly sharpened knife was placed on them - if they laughed again, that person would come up and twist their necks.
Qin Lou's mood swings were naturally not only noticed by the other party. Song Shu felt helpless, but he just smiled.
She took the initiative to hook Qin Lou's arm, put her face against his shoulder, looked at Chang Ting and blinked.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Chang, when I choose a boss, I usually look at his ability first, then his appearance - you happen to have neither."
After saying this, Song Shu no longer paid attention to Chang Ting's gloomy face. He took Qin Lou's arm and shook it gently, his voice full of inflection.
"Boss Qin, let's ignore them. I'm hungry. Let's go eat."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Qin Lou let Song Shu hold his arm and walked past Qin Rui and the others without looking around.
After making sure she was completely out of the other person's sight, Song Shu's expression faded. She frowned slightly and was about to pull her hand back, but someone held her down.
Song Shu looked back and saw Qin Lou looking at her with dark eyes, his eyes were a little dangerous, "You are more gentle in front of them than when we are alone. You are good, little clam."
Song Shu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "You want to be jealous of this?"
"This has nothing to do with jealousy. I see that you are very skilled in acting. So in the future, when it's just the two of us, you should act like a spoiled child with me like this."
Song Shu's expression suddenly became subtle, "I almost got goose bumps myself, and you're still enjoying it?"
Qin Lou narrowed his eyes slightly, "It's more than just enjoyment?"
"… Stop," Song Shu responded in time, "Let's end this topic here."
Qin Lou regrets.
The three of them were led to the reserved table. When they sat down to order food, Luan Qiaoqing still looked absent-minded.
Song Shu and Qin Lou looked at each other, Song Shu shook his head slightly, and they both pretended they saw nothing.
During the meal, Qin Lou glanced at the time on his watch, picked up the snow-white napkin, wiped the corners of his mouth, and stood up.
"I'm going to the bathroom."
Song Shu understood and smiled faintly, "Well, we'll wait for you to come back."
"… "
A few minutes later.
Qin Lou walked to the corner of the private kitchen restaurant.
Surrounded by a bamboo forest, an artificial mountain spring waterfall washed over huge black rocks with beautiful textures. He walked around the rocks and walked into the only modern-style bathroom here.
There was already someone standing in front of the sink.
Chu Xiangbin raised his head and glanced at Qin Lou in the mirror. "I checked, no one is there."
Qin Lou nodded nonchalantly, also walked to the sink and stopped.
"Both the mantis and the cicada have fallen into the trap?"
