"What do you want, then?" Ying Qingcang casually tapped the sofa a few times.
Siman Rong blinked her seductive eyes. "Can you speed up the collaboration with the resort?"
"Like I told you, the effect can only be caused by geographical conditions. Unless..." Ying Qingcang's eyes darkened. "We use humans as a substitute."
"That's still too late. It'll take at least three months for the final renovation project to be completed." Siman Rong frowned. "If we do it now, the most she'll lose is the 30 million she invested previously."
Ying Qingcang nodded in satisfaction. "Not bad. You know how to calculate now."
"Hey, you're still laughing at me!" Siman Rong swung his arm happily. "You must have another way, right?"
"I'll invite her to the resort for an inspection in two days. We'll talk about it then." Ying Qingcang pushed her away. "You can't go."
Siman Rong, who was in the midst of making plans, was stunned. "Why?"
"Can you promise not to do anything stupid?" Ying Qingcang gave her an impatient look.
"I promise!" Siman Rong was about to pounce on him again. Ying Qingcang stood up and opened the door. "Your promise is not valid."
It was the weekend. Xin Qing and Monica were chatting in the living room when Xiao Rui walked over, holding Wangwang's hand.
"Mom, Wangwang can skip grades now."
Xin Qing was stunned. "Skip... skip what?"
"I've been teaching him to read for the past few days. He can definitely go to the first grade now." Xiao Rui carried Wangwang to the sofa.
Monica patted Wangwang's head. "Have you turned on your genius mode?"
"Mommy! Four-year-old Wangwang's voice was still like a baby's. He stared at Xin Qing with his big eyes. "I know everything big brother taught me! Isn't Wangwang awesome? "
Xin Qing let out a sigh of relief when she heard her son speak. "Thank goodness he's not like Xunxun." According to Chen Huan, Xunxun had been acting like an old man ever since he turned three. Two-faced, arrogant, narcissistic.
"If he skipped a grade, Wangwang would miss out on a lot of fun as a child," Xin Qing said, pointing at Xiao Rui. "Look, your brother is very smart too, but he didn't skip a grade!"
Wangwang glanced at Xiao Rui. He bit his finger and thought for a few seconds. "Mommy, that's because big brother wants to protect big sister. That's why he's in the same class as big sister."
Monica gave Xin Qing a sympathetic look. It was really hard for parents to have such a high IQ.
In the end, no matter what Wangwang said, Xin Qing did not agree to it. However, she did promise him that he could skip grades whenever he wanted once he entered primary school, as long as he could pass the test.
On Monday, Anam told Xin Qing that Ying Qingcang invited her to the resort.
"Sure!" Xin Qing nodded. "Tell him that tomorrow is the day."
The next morning, Xin Qing went to the mountain at the appointed time. When she met up with the others at the racecourse at the foot of the mountain, she saw Siman Rong sitting next to Ying Qingcang. Siman Rong smiled provocatively at her through the window.
"Holy shit, he brought this woman here," Zhang Mi shouted in disbelief. "Is your young master out of his mind?" Ah Chul, who had been punched for no reason, shook his head sadly. "How would I know..."
Xin Qing's face was cold. She stayed in the car for a long time. Just as she was thinking about how to scold Ying Qingcang, her phone rang. She glanced at the caller ID and her eyes flashed. Then, she picked it up.
"Hello!"
"Ah Qing, where are you?" Jiang Qianren's voice came from the other end of the line.
Xin Qing smiled. "Chief, you're done with your work?"
"Yeah, I'm taking two days off. I came to S City to see you!"
"Huh? You're in S City now? "Xin Qing covered her mouth." But I'm not in the city. "
Jiang Qianren's voice was obviously unhappy. "I just arrived. Where have you been?"
"I'm here for an inspection. It's that forest resort we met at last time."
"Oh, that!" Jiang Qianren laughed. "Wait for me there. I'll be right there."
After hanging up, Xin Qing got out of the car and walked to Ying Qingcang's car.
"Excuse me. Let's go to the racecourse. I'm waiting for a friend." After saying that, she strode toward the racecourse without waiting for others to respond. Zhang Mi and Ah Chul followed closely behind her.
Siman Rong wanted to say something, but she saw that Ying Qingcang had already gotten out of the car. She could only pout and follow him.
After spending almost an hour at the racecourse, Xin Qing and Zhang Mi ran a few laps. Then, they saw Jiang Qianren standing at the entrance. He saw her glance and waved at her with a smile.
"Did you get here by plane?" Xin Qing and Jiang Qianren walked in the front. She knew that he couldn't have driven here at this speed. It would take at least two hours to get here from S City!
Jiang Qianren handed her a lunchbox. "I bought it on the way."
Xin Qing opened it and saw that it was her favorite sweet pea cake. She smiled. "That's a bit far on the way!" The sweet pea cake was in the south of the city. They were now heading north.
"Like you said, it was delivered by plane. What's so far?" Jiang Qianren glanced at Ying Qingcang behind him without batting an eyelid. "Hurry up and read it. When you're done, head back early. You still owe me a meal!"
"You came all the way here just to have a meal with me?" Xin Qing glared at him. Jiang Qianren smiled softly and looked at her face. "You know why I'm here. Do you want me to say it again?"
Xin Qing quickly waved her hand. "I was wrong. Just pretend that I didn't say anything. Let's hurry up and finish. I'll treat you to a meal when we're done!" As she spoke, she quickened her pace and waved at Zhang Mi and Ah Chul behind her.
Ying Qingcang remained silent. Xin Qing stole glances at him occasionally and found that he was at ease, as if he was just taking a stroll. Xin Qing, on the other hand, heard Siman Rong mention something about a new lover and climbing up the social ladder.
They checked the progress of the project. Xin Qing found that the underground hot spring was more interesting than the hot springs she had soaked in before. After installing a temperature-controlled lamp on the top of the cave, it would produce different light sources as time passed. The water in the spring would also change color constantly. Together with the surrounding stalactites, it was as beautiful as a mythical kingdom. She believed that it would be even more beautiful after the project was completed.
Before dinner, they returned to S City. Ah Chul sent Zhang Mi home first. As promised, she treated Jiang Qianren to a meal. She had just finished ordering when she saw Ying Qingcang and Siman Rong walking over.
"There are no seats left. President Xin, would you like to sit with us? It's on us, "Siman Rong said as soon as she came up, which surprised Xin Qing. She was about to say that it was not convenient. However, Ying Qingcang had already taken a seat. He picked up her wine glass from the table and said to Jiang Qianren, "I believe that Mr. Jiang is not afraid of me sitting down for a meal... right?"
Jiang Qianren sneered and changed his position. "Have a seat!"
Xin Qing felt that this was the most uncomfortable dinner she had ever had. Siman Rong kept talking in a sarcastic tone. Ying Qingcang and Jiang Qianren were glaring at each other with murderous eyes. When she finally finished eating, she stood up.
"We have something else to do, so we'll leave first. You guys enjoy your meal." After that, she pulled Jiang Qianren up and left.
Watching them leave, Siman Rong threw her chopsticks in dissatisfaction. "A Cang, what are you doing? Didn't you say that you were going to test Jiang Qianren? Why didn't you say anything the whole time? "
"You've already spoken. What else can I say?" Ying Qingcang's gaze was still fixed on the window outside. Xin Qing got into Jiang Qianren's military vehicle.
"Obviously, Jiang Qianren really likes Xin Qing." Siman Rong's tone was tinged with jealousy and resentment. "What should we do? If the Jiang family makes a move, Xin Enterprises will be even more difficult to deal with."
Ying Qingcang slowly finished the rest of his tea. He stared at the tea leaves in the cup for a long time before saying, "Let's go back. I have work to do tonight."
"A Cang!" Siman Rong reached out to pull him away, but Ying Qingcang had already stood up. He looked down and saw her wronged expression. "Let's go," he said with a faint smile. "I know what I'm doing."
At night, after taking a shower, Siman Rong saw that the light in Ying Qingcang's study was still on. She opened the door and saw that he was still reading some documents.
"Go to sleep. You can read them tomorrow." Ying Qingcang saw her and smiled. He pointed at the milk beside him. "I was just about to bring it to you. You didn't eat well last night, did you? Drink some milk before you go to sleep."
Siman Rong looked at him in surprise. "A Cang! You... "
"Drink it." Ying Qingcang handed the milk to her.
"Thank you!" Siman Rong took the milk and drank it until there was not a drop left. Then, she obediently said goodnight and went back to her room. However, she lay in bed and felt that her heart was getting hotter and hotter. Her mind was full of Ying Qingcang. After tossing and turning for a while, she quietly got up and put on her clothes. She ran to the door of the study and saw that Ying Qingcang was still working. So, she took her handbag and secretly left the house.
When she drove out, a figure appeared on the window of the second floor. Soon, another car drove out of the garage and went in the opposite direction of the previous car.
It was very quiet in the villa area at midnight. Under the moonlight, a long shadow was projected on the Ying's villa. A person unlocked the door with no effort. Then, he walked around the furniture in the hall and went straight upstairs.
In the innermost room on the second floor, there was a wooden sign hanging on the light purple door. The words "Little Ying" were written in cartoon characters. The person reached out and touched the sign. Then, he gently pushed the door open.
The moonlight shone through the curtains and sprinkled on the dark purple bed. The person on the bed was curled up into a small ball. If one looked closer, one would find that she was not sleeping well. She was probably dreaming.
She frowned and occasionally muttered something. Two pairs of slender white fingers clutched the corner of the quilt tightly. A large hand slowly touched the delicate face and rubbed the little person's eyebrows repeatedly.
The person on the bed probably felt something. Suddenly, a small blue pill appeared in the hand that was rubbing her face. He pinched it with two fingers. A puff of white smoke came out. Xin Qing just opened her eyes and tried to see the person beside the bed. However, she felt comfortable all over and slowly fell asleep.
Early morning.
"What's wrong with your mouth?" Monica sat at the dining table and looked at Xin Qing. "It's so swollen."
Xin Qing frowned and touched it. "I don't know. It's been like this since I woke up this morning. It hurts!"
"Did you eat something yesterday that gave you an allergic reaction?" Monica stood up. "I'll go get the first aid kit."
Xin Qing looked at Monica guiltily. She did not know if she was dreaming or not. She seemed to have dreamed about Ying Qingcang last night. That guy did not say anything. He came up and kissed her for a long time. She almost suffocated.
