After walking in, Su Yuanming directly ignored Qin Muchen who was sitting on the sofa and went straight up to Su Ziyue.
“Everyone has been working very hard the past two weeks. I have a friend who recently opened a hot spring spa; it is in its trial operation and has first-class facilities. Hence, to reward all the staff members, I’m inviting everyone to the hot spring. You should come along too, Ziyue.”
Su Yuanming spoke in a calm tone; he sounded like an ordinary elder and a boss who wanted to reward his employee.
Su Ziyue knew that he was trying to save his image in the company after leaving a bad impression on everyone and losing his authority in front of his subordinates due to the issues in his recent work together with his personal problems.
Treating everyone to the hot springs was his way to win everyone’s hearts.
Although this method was very old-fashioned, it was still quite effective.
Su Ziyue pursed her lips and smiled. “I’m afraid I have to ask my husband about this matter.”
As she spoke, she turned to look at Qin Muchen.
Qin Muchen also happened to look up at Su Ziyue and raised his eyebrows. “Since Vice President Su is so enthusiastic and compassionate to his subordinates, you can’t let Vice President Su’s painstaking efforts go to waste; of course you have to go. Can she bring her family members along, Vice President Su?”
Uh…
Su Ziyue was silently embarrassed. She thought that Qin Muchen would not let her go, but to her surprise, not only did he not object to it, he also wanted to go with her.
This was somewhat beyond Su Yuanming’s expectation.
Before Su Yuanming came over, he knew that Qin Muchen was in Su Ziyue’s office.
The past few days, he had also heard several female employees in the company talking about how handsome Su Ziyue’s boyfriend was.
However, Su Yuanming didn’t like Qin Muchen at all. As he was a young man without any family background, Su Yuanming felt that he didn’t need to spend any time on him.
Upon hearing Qin Muchen’s question about bringing family members at that moment, Su Yuanming despised Qin Muchen even more in his heart.
Not only did he not have a strong family background, but he also wanted to join in on their company activities. Without a decent family background, everything was of no use no matter how good one looked.
Although he was full of contempt for Qin Muchen in his heart, he nodded at Qin Muchen with a smile on his face. “Of course, you can bring along your friends too if they’d like to come. The hot spring spa is big anyway, and many people can go; this amount of money is still affordable for me.”
His words appeared to be generous, but he secretly satirized Qin Muchen for being stingy.
Su Ziyue’s face darkened when she realized what he meant.
However, Qin Muchen had already spoken ahead of her.
Hearing Su Yuanming’s words, Qin Muchen said with a serious look on his face, “Since you’ve said so, I’m quite relieved, Vice President Su. I happen to have a friend who has been wanting to visit the hot spring spa recently. I didn’t expect that you would be such an accommodating person, Vice President Su.”
That’s very nice of you. I still have something to do, so I’ll get going now.” After speaking, Su Yuanming let out a cold snort and went out.
He was originally worried that people in the company would think he and Su Ziyue were at odds if he asked his assistant to notify Su Ziyue about the hot spring event, and she probably didn’t even want to go.
If he came to invite Su Ziyue personally, he would be the one in the right—regardless of whether she showed up or not.
Unexpectedly, a man suddenly popped out. Not only was he going to the hot springs, but he was also brazenly taking friends with him.
That small amount of money was nothing; he just felt that dealing with people like Qin Muchen would drag him down.
…
After Su Yuanming left, Su Ziyue glared at Qin Muchen and said, “Listen to his tone. Are you sure you really want to go to the hot spring this weekend?”
Qin Muchen looked at her indifferently and said, “Of course I’m going. I will inform Jingshu and Nan Chuan. When we go back, we will pick up Beef and take him to the hot spring as well.”
Su Ziyue was rendered speechless.
After they picked up Beef and returned home, Su Ziyue still looked displeased.
Qin Muchen peeled an apple and stuffed it into her hand before cupping her face and pecking her on the lips.”
“The one he looks down on is me—not you. Why are you so angry?”
Su Ziyue took a bite of the apple and said nothing.
In fact, Su Yuanming also looked down on her, but since she didn’t care about the Su family, she didn’t even care about their opinion of her.
However, she was not happy that Su Yuanming talked about Qin Muchen in such a condescending tone.
Qin Muchen was such an outstanding person who could crush Su Yuanming with just one finger. Who does he think he is to criticize Qin Muchen?
“I just can’t stand him. He can’t do anything well, yet he even looks down on people. If he wasn’t from the Su family, I don’t know how he would end up like.”
After Su Ziyue finished speaking angrily, she let out a long sigh of relief, feeling much better.
Qin Muchen stood up and rubbed the top of her head with a serious expression on his face. “Don’t take it to heart; he just takes himself too seriously. I’m going to cook—you can go prepare the things for tomorrow.”
“Okay.” Su Ziyue nodded. She suddenly became very obedient, looking as though she was a furious cat who had been soothed by its owner.
Qin Muchen couldn’t hide the smile on his lips and chuckled.
My little wife is getting cuter. What should I do?
Su Ziyue gnawed on the apple and suddenly remembered something. She turned around and lay on the back of the sofa before she cleared her throat and asked him, “Umm, what is your highest education qualification?”
“HF University. Double master’s degree,” Qin Muchen answered her question and turned to walk into the kitchen.
Su Ziyue was left alone in consternation.
He has a double master’s degree from the world’s top university, and he started his business at the age of fourteen. He was making himself busy and working hard indeed. He even had the time to read and study…
Su Ziyue nibbled blankly at the apple in her hand. If she didn’t watch him eat and wash his face every day, she really felt that Qin Muchen was not a mortal.
…
When Su Ziyue saw Nan Chuan and Bai Jingshu at the door early the next morning, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly; she didn’t expect Qin Muchen to be serious.
Good morning, Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin.” Nan Chuan sounded very brisk; it sounded like he was going to have fun. After all, he had been working very hard.
“Morning.” After Su Ziyue finished speaking, she turned to look at Qin Muchen and asked in a low voice, “Why did you ask Nan Chuan along as well?”
Nan Chuan had been managing the affairs of Lumiere Jade House for Qin Muchen. Therefore, most of the people who frequented Lumiere Jade House would know him.
“It’s okay—it’s free anyway,” said Qin Muchen as he put a suitcase in the trunk.
Su Ziyue followed behind him and silently had her perspective on the world change; she felt that Qin Muchen was really different from the rich man she knew.
Every day, he had time to pick her up from work, the time to cook, and even joined the activities of his wife’s company while bringing along his friends.
By the way, I want to ask An Xia along too.
An Xia was still working as her assistant, and she would also allow An Xia to work on some minor projects on her own, but at the end of the day, she was only a general staff. Thus, she would not be notified to participate in company activities like this.
Since Qin Muchen was already so shameless, she might as well ask An Xia to come along too. It’s free anyway…
