Nowadays, Jian Yiling was followed by the Zhai family whenever she went anywhere.
Qin Chuan was also unexpectedly surprised to see Jian Yiling: “You’re here too?”
Qin Chuan’s gaze was soft as he looked at Jian Yiling. The smile on his face was particularly gentle.
“Mhmm,” Jian Yiling nodded her head slightly.
Upon seeing this, Wei Qirui asked: “Oh? How do you know Miss Yiling?”
“We’re good friends. We’ve known each other for quite some time,” Qin Chuan replied.
When he said this, his eyes were tinged with a bit of despondency.
He got to know Jian Yiling before she got to know Zhai Yunsheng.
However, he missed out on his opportunity.
“Oh?” Wei Qirui replied as he reexamined Jian Yiling. The smile on his face became thicker.
Jian Yiling was indeed a rather lovely girl. If he was seven or eight years younger, it was possible for him to be interested in this girl as well.
However, Wei Qirui didn’t believe in platonic male-female friendships.
This was especially the case when he saw the way Qin Chuan looked at Jian Yiling.
Once upon a time, he was also young. He knew what this kind of gaze meant.
And thus, even though Qin Chuan stated that they were merely friends, there was a high probability that this wasn’t true.
And thus, a scheme began to form in Wei Qirui’s mind. However, as of now, his top priority was to resolve the matter of his company.
Therefore, Wei Qirui continued to enthusiastically talk to Qin Chuan.
On the other hand, Zhang Xuming asked Jian Yiling to sit down. He then personally went to get her a cup of hot milk.
“I want coffee,” Jian Yiling said.
“No,” Zhang Xuming replied. “You can’t sleep well at night if you drink too much of that.”
Jian Yiling: “…”
As her protest was in vain, she could only accept the cup of hot milk.
And thus, Jian Yiling sat down on the sofa. She held the cup of hot milk in her hands as she watched the discussion between Qin Chuan and Wei Qirui.
“Mr. Qin Chuan, so in regards to the project I sent earlier, what do you think about it? Do you need me to provide you any other information?”
Wei Qirui assumed that he had done enough padding already. Therefore, he couldn’t help but directly ask Qin Chuan about the matter.
“What project?”
Qin Chuan came over to discuss a project with members of Xuming Medical Manufacturers. However, Wei Qirui was not a member of that company.
“Mr. Qin Chuan, are you unhappy with the project?” Wei Qirui asked.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“Wait, didn’t we agree to talk about this project today?”
“I made an appointment with Elder Zhang today. I didn’t make an appointment with you. Did you perhaps misunderstand something?” Qin Chuan replied. He also came back to his senses. It seemed as though Wei Qirui had mistaken him for someone else.
Wei Qirui froze for a moment before he turned his head to look at Zhang Xuming.
Zhang Xuming, on the other hand, had a smile on his face: “Mr. Qin Chuan is my guest.”
The expression on Wei Qirui’s face made it seem like he swallowed a fly: “Is he not your chosen successor?”
Zhang Xuming shook his head.
Qin Chuan wasn’t “Second Master”?
Then why did he ramble on and on with Qin Chuan for so long? He wasted so much time!
Who was “Second Master” anyway?
Wei Qirui glanced at the clock in the office. It was quarter past twelve.
“Then… Where is the Second Master? Where is he? Why isn’t he here?”
Zhang Xuming continued to smile. He did not directly answer Wei Qirui’s question.
“I said that I would not interfere with this matter. You’re better off discussing this matter with them directly,” Zhang Xuming replied.
The “Second Master” was present right now. She was in front of Wei Qirui but he failed to recognize her.
Wei Qirui impatiently took out his phone and opened the private chat software. He sent a message to the “Second Master” and asked him whether he had arrived.
