"It's so fun to watch you argue. Your mouth is still as poisonous as ever. Haha, I think … Qin Chu must have fallen in love with your willfulness back then." Zhu Lingling realized that she had said something wrong and immediately changed the topic, "Ahem, what I meant was that even the young master of the Huo Family was embarrassed by you. You're amazing. I want to be your disciple."
"I'm no longer taking in disciples," Huo Mian teased with a smile.
"Idiot, keep showing off. Haha, as if you've taken in a disciple before," Zhu Lingling scolded with a smile.
Time always passed quickly when you were fooling around with your best friend …
The two of them never caused trouble at nightclubs. By the time they finished drinking, it was already late at night. Then, the two of them each took a taxi home.
After returning to her rented apartment, Huo Mien changed into a nightgown and sent Zhu Lingling a WeChat message.
"I'm home. Lingling, what about you?"
"I'm home safely. I'm going to take a shower. You should sleep early. Good night," Zhu Lingling replied almost instantly.
Huo Mien was about to turn off her phone when she suddenly received a text. The number was 8866. She knew that it was Qin Chu's number.
"Are you asleep?"
It was just three simple words, but Huo Mien didn't know why, but she felt her heart beating wildly. It had been seven years. It was a strange feeling.
She thought for a moment, deleted the text, turned off her phone, and went to sleep …
-On the other side of the mountain, inside the mansion … -
Qin Chu didn't receive a reply for a long time, so he knew that it was over. With Huo Mien's personality, she definitely wouldn't reply to him.
He got up and walked downstairs. He walked to the wine cabinet and took out a bottle of red wine.
Just then, he heard heavy footsteps behind him. He didn't need to answer to know who it was.
"Chu, come here for a moment. I have something to ask you."
Qin Yumin had not been sleeping well recently. In the middle of the night, he heard some noise downstairs and walked out. As expected, his son was still awake.
Qin Chu calmly poured a glass of red wine, then walked to the living room and sat down on the sofa. He lowered his head and gently shook the red wine glass.
His navy blue nightgown accentuated his beautiful face. His eyes were downcast, and his slender fingers were tapping on the glass of red wine. Any woman who saw this scene would have fallen for him.
Qin Yumin looked at his son and felt a sense of unfamiliarity …
"I heard that you rejected the green space proposal in today's meeting."
"That's right," he answered simply.
"Why?" Qin Yumin was slightly angered.
"I don't."
"Nonsense, is doing business all based on one's preferences? If that was the case, GK would've gone bankrupt a long time ago. Chu, I trust you, that's why I'm putting GK in your hands. You can't be so willful. "
"I have my principles. If you don't trust me, you can do it yourself. You know that I've never been interested in the boring position of GK's president."
"You …" Qin Yumin was speechless.
After a while, Qin Chu suddenly raised his head. His eyes flashed as he asked, "Dad, do you still remember the bet we made seven years ago?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Yumin was slightly surprised, but he didn't say anything else …
Seven years ago, he made a bet with his son. That bet was very important.
"What are you trying to say?" Qin Yumin frowned as he looked at Qin Chu.
"Nothing, I'm just reminding you that I've done what I promised you. As for you … shouldn't you fulfill your promise?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Yumin's expression became more and more unsightly.
In the end, he only said one thing, "I don't care what you do, but I want a 15% commission for GK's performance this quarter. Otherwise, the Greenland Case will be reopened, and you will be demoted. Hmph, don't think that I won't do anything to you just because you're my son."
After saying this, Qin Yumin swung his arm and left. It was obvious that he was very angry.
He didn't mention the promise he made seven years ago, but Qin Chu knew that his father understood what he meant.
As for GK's performance, he thought that he could achieve a 15% increase with his eyes closed. It was such a simple task, so he didn't know why his father was so confident about it.
At 5: 30 AM, Qin Chu was woken up by loud noises.
A middle-aged man in a black suit was standing at the door. Behind him were eight armed SWAT officers.
"Dr. Qin, sorry to disturb you. This is an emergency, and we really need you right now."
The Qin couple didn't know what to do, but Qin Chu's expression was calm. "Wait a second, let me change." Then, he put his hands in his pockets and went upstairs.
After Qin Chu left, Lady Qin asked with a pale face and a trembling voice, "Yumin, did our son … piss off someone important?"
