Zhou Shu pushed the door open and entered. Seeing her still working, he couldn’t help but feel a bit of admiration.
"President Qin, it’s getting late. Do you want to rest first?"
Qin Miaomiao shook her head, took out her latest strategy plan, and said to him:
"We’ll focus our energy on the portal website first. This is the fastest project to see results. Next, I will..."
Zhou Shu suddenly interrupted her and said:
"President Qin, Mr. Lu came to the company today. Honestly, as long as our company cooperates with him, we can come back to life. He’s the most powerful person in Yan Jing, and you are his wife."
Qin Miaomiao frowned, her tone turning cold: "What, do you think I can only succeed by relying on him?"
"No, I’m just saying it’s the easiest way."
"Enough, you don’t need to say more. I have my own methods. You can leave now."
Zhou Shu understood he couldn’t say any more, so he pushed the door and left. But not long after, the door was pushed open again. Qin Miaomiao thought it was him, feeling a bit impatient, she was about to look up and scold him when she saw Lu Qing walking in instead.
Qin Miaomiao froze and instinctively asked:
"It’s midnight, and my wife isn’t home. Do you think I shouldn’t come?"
The word "wife" made her blush slightly. She quickly stood up and walked towards him.
As soon as she approached, her faint fragrance wafted over, pulling people in. He instinctively wrapped an arm around her waist.
With their faces so close, Qin Miaomiao was startled. Since when did the two of them become this intimate?
"There was so much going on today, I forgot to tell you."
He spoke, leaving no room for argument, and pulled her out. Qin Miaomiao quickly said, "I still have some unresolved work."
"The company’s accounts are a complete mess right now. On top of that, the original projects were stretched too far. Some aren’t profitable at all, so we need to close some and start afresh."
Lu Qing suddenly leaned in so close that she could clearly count his eyelashes. He said, word by word:
"Miss Qin, don’t you know how to cling to a golden backer like me?"
Qin Miaomiao awkwardly pushed his forehead with her hand and said:
"I... I’m not very good at clinging to people. I don’t even know how."
This was her most honest thought. If initially, she only wanted to use Lu Qing, she could have done it without guilt. But now, she even subconsciously rejected the idea. She didn’t want him to see through her.
Lu Qing ruffled her hair so much it almost got messed up, and said lightly:
"What if I force you to cling to me? I think the Qin Group is very much worth investing in."
"You want to invest?"
"Is there a problem with that?"
"But the company is a complete mess right now."
Qin Miaomiao hesitated a little, and Lu Qing couldn’t help but find it amusing. This woman, whom he had thought was fond of playing mind games and feigning disinterest to capture attention, turned out to be surprisingly slow when it came to certain things.
"So what if it’s a mess? Can’t you handle internal issues? As for some of the company’s projects, it’s simple: cut everything that’s unprofitable. Keep ’Chunding Xuan.’ I know a top-tier chef who can revive it. Additionally, I have a property development project worth billions, and I can hand it over to you entirely."
Property development, even in the current market, was a sure win with no losses.
"The project is too big. I’m afraid I can’t handle it."
He smiled at her: "Anyone else hearing this would probably use every means possible to grab it, yet with you, it’s the other way around?"
Qin Miaomiao appeared extremely calm: "One should know their limits. If I can’t do it, I can’t do it. There’s no point in forcing it."
"Fair enough. Then, what about a film and television project? Are you interested?"
"Film and television?"
"Yes, the company is planning to develop investments in this area. I’ll leave it to you. How about it?"
After mulling it over for a moment, Qin Miaomiao nodded decisively: "Alright, I’ll take it!"
"Then, happy cooperation?"
