Perfect Secret Love novel Chapter 2272

"Director Si!" Qin Xiyuan immediately called out.

Si Yehan paused in his steps. "Miss Qin."

"I heard Director Si has recently been arranging law proposals and suggesting great reforms. I've been wanting to discuss them with you. Are you free tonight?" Qin Xiyuan extended the invitation with a charming smile and a confident expression.

Qin Xiyuan's suggestion was clearly very enticing. In other words, if he wanted to pass the bill, she'd be of great assistance regardless of how you looked at it.

"I am not." Si Yehan didn't consider it for even one second.

"What about tomorrow night?" Qin Xiyuan was persistent.

In contrast to his careful deliberation of every word when it was Ye Wanwan, Si Yehan was evidently too lazy to even make an excuse when it was Qin Xiyuan.

Hence, Si Yehan directly glanced at Lin Que.

Lin Que had no choice but to clean up after him. He cleared his throat and said, "I'm truly sorry, Miss Qin. The director has been busy with preparations for the summit recently, so he really doesn't have any free time."

At the continual rejection, the smile on Qin Xiyuan's face finally ebbed. "Perhaps Director Si doesn't know, but your adopted brother, Yin Heng, has been asking me out recently. Director Si is a smart person, so you should know what that means."

If he married her, he'd advance smoothly in his career. Moreover, she was the most beautiful woman in Tianshui City, so there wasn't a man in the Twelve Independent States who didn't want to marry her.

Hence, if she chose Yin Heng, Si Yehan would lose his right of inheritance and might even ruin his career path.

At the same time, in the Yin residence:

"How are things?" Yin Yuerong had a teacup in hand.

Late at night, in a mansion on the outskirts of Tianshui City, Si Yehan spent the whole night taking care of business affairs.

In the early morning the next day, Lin Que suddenly rushed into Si Yehan's study, his expression looking like the sky had collapsed.

"Ninth Brother! Ninth Brother! It's over! We're truly dead this time!" Lin Que was gasping for air with a newspaper in hand.

Si Yehan had dark circles under his eyes from staying up all night. He continued to read the documents without looking up.

Lin Que couldn't be any more hasty. "Ninth Brother, stop what you're doing! The sky is about to collapse! Hurry and look at this newspaper!"

Si Yehan finally looked up, glancing at the newspaper Lin Que was handing to him.

The next second, Si Yehan's expression changed.
