Chapter 184 – You Didn’t Bring Money Nor Cards With You When You Went Out, Did You?

"Please give a brief summary of your recent work situation. This is your new chief editor, Huang Zemin. He will be in charge of the submission of tasks and statistics." With that, Qin Gengxin pulled over the president's chair and leisurely sat down. He crossed his legs and turned to the side, casually resting one hand on the conference table. His gaze swept across the crowd once more before finally landing on Jiang Ruolan.

Jiang Ruolan met his obviously malicious gaze and frowned. She quietly glared at him, and in the end, Qin Gengxin snorted and retracted his gaze, not putting her in his eyes.

'F*ck! Did this fellow grow stronger, or was he expressing his true nature?'

'Wait!'

During that time, Qin Gengxin locked himself in the apartment. What might have caused him to be so busy with computers and files littering on the floor? At the time, he also seemed to be completing his work without a break. Had he already decided to act at the time?

Jiang Ruolan gritted her teeth and looked at his nonchalant expression. He didn't even spare her a glance at all.

As the newly appointed chief editor entered the meeting room and began to speak, Qin Gengxin sat there listening to the report as if he wasn't involved in anything.

Could it be that Xian Zihao already knew that Qin Gengxin had bought their company?

At 12 AM, the meeting was finally over. Jiang Ruolan stood up and was about to leave when Qin Gengxin called out to her. "Editor Jiang, please stay for a moment."

Everyone turned to look at her and without showing any other expression, they left the meeting room, leaving only Jiang Ruolan standing on the spot.

She gritted her teeth, waiting for everyone to leave before turning around, only to find that Qin Gengxin had suddenly appeared behind her and scaring her.

Jiang Ruolan quickly took a step back and said with terrifying looks. "When did you stand behind me!"

Qin Gengxin narrowed his eyes and raised his eyebrow. He looked at her with a fake smile on his face. "How is it?"

"How about what?" Jiang Ruolan frowned. She stared at Qin Gengxin's exceptionally bright peach blossom eyes and a malicious smile on his face. "What the hell are you doing? Why did you buy our company?"

Qin Gengxin didn't answer, he simply took off his jacket and threw it on the conference table. Jiang Ruolan immediately took a big step back with a cautious face.

"Didn't I tell you that I bought your company for my Qin expansion? In the future, the number of companies under Qin Group will increase, so there is nothing to be surprised about."

Jiang Ruolan only cast him a sidelong glance, with an expression as if she wanted to find out what his purpose was.

"Jiang Ruolan, let me see your head." Qin Gengxin suddenly took a step forward and pressed down on her shoulder, turning her around. Before she could resist, he had already clearly seen the wound on her neck. "Are you alright now?"

"What can you even do if I'm not alright? It's not like I'll die from this minor injury!" Jiang Ruolan pushed his hand away.

"Is there a wound infection that causes fever or something? When you lose consciousness due to a fever, did you call my name?" Qin Gengxin thought of a possibility and seriously asked.

Jiang Ruolan chuckled dryly and hurried out of the meeting room.

In the end, Qin Gengxin gripped her arm tightly and pulled her back. "Jiang Ruolan, if it really is like this, don't forget that I am always by your side."

"Qin Gengxin!" Jiang Ruolan cried out, "Don't disgust me!"

In an instant, his face was filled with excessive wounds. "I know by marrying Xian Zihao has made you feel wronged. It doesn't matter, I will definitely save you. Wait for me …"

"Waiting for your ass!" Jiang Ruolan struggled out of his grasp and stared at him speechlessly. Suddenly, she seemed to recall something and couldn't help but ask, "What exactly did you two talk about in the hospital that time?"

Qin Gengxin raised his eyebrows and glanced at her with a smile that was not a smile on his face, but he did not answer. The heat in the meeting room was too hot, and he was already sweating slightly behind his shirt, but it did not affect his beauty.

Seeing his suspenseful expression, Jiang Ruolan really wanted to scratch his face.

"If you want to know, then come with me." Qin Gengxin suddenly said this.

"Why?"

Jiang Ruolan looked at the time coldly. It was already past 12, could it be that he wanted to have a meal with her? That won't do. Qin Gengxin already knows that she's married now, and she made her relationship with Xian Zihao very clear. If Qin Gengxin still doesn't understand, then he's an idiot.

Jiang Ruolan wanted to directly refuse him, but she stopped when she saw Qin Gengxin pulled his shirt's collar. He obviously felt a little uncomfortable from the sweat on his body. "Accompany me to buy a shirt."

He picked up his coat and walked out of the meeting room.

Jiang Ruolan did not move.

Qin Gengxin took two steps and looked back at her. He frowned in annoyance, "Didn't you feel guilty a few days ago? You look like you can be beaten up and scolded at will, but you've changed in the blink of an eye?"

"That's different!"

"How is it different?" With a cold expression, Qin Gengxin asked, "Will you die if you accompany me to buy a shirt?"

"Just shirts?" Jiang Ruolan gave him a sidelong glance and gradually softened her attitude.

Qin Gengxin snorted coldly, turned around, and walked away.

Jiang Ruolan sighed inwardly. She felt that it would be better not to overdo it, so she placed the stack of documents on the conference table and left the room.

They went to the specialty store near Beidou Avenue. Most of them were high-end business men's clothing or casual shirts. Jiang Ruolan didn't usually go to these kinds of shops, she only looked around while waiting for Qin Gengxin to try on a few clothes.

She glanced at him a few times, but as he turned around to look at her, she looked away.

"Which one is the best?"

Jiang Ruolan tightened her face. "The white ones, the black ones, the grey ones, they are all pretty good. If you like them, you can just buy them all. No need to ask me!"

'Hurry up and send this guy back to the office. I wanna have lunch.'

Qin Gengxin sighed and walked over to the counter with a grey shirt.

Jiang Ruolan, who was standing to the side, looked at the shirt in his hand and asked, "After trying for a long time, you only bought one?"

"If there are too many, I'm afraid you won't be able to afford it." Qin Gengxin's tone was very casual.

Jiang Ruolan was stunned for a moment.

She? Couldn't afford it?

Five minutes later, Jiang Ruolan was crying without tears. She took the credit card from the counter staff with grief and resentment. Watching Qin Gengxin leisurely walk out of the store in his new shirt, she angrily stuffed the credit card back into her wallet.

6380 RMB for one shirt!

Jiang Ruolan was so angry that she almost vomited blood. She immediately rushed out of the store. She pulled the door open and got into the car, then glared at Qin Gengxin while gritting her teeth. "You didn't bring money nor cards with you when you went out, did you?"

Qin Gengxin's smile was like a flower, but it was a smile filled with innocence. He spread her hands and said, "I left my wallet with my assistant."

Jiang Ruolan took a deep breath and took out her phone. Just as she was about to write down an account on the notepad, Qin Gengxin glanced at her phone and said, "Are you still keeping accounts? You got that 28 thousand back last time. Can you just forget about it this time? Considered as treating your friends."

Jiang Ruolan's expression froze as she stared at him in shock.

However, the smile on Qin Gengxin's face had already disappeared, leaving behind only a layer of cold ridicule.
