Emerging from Ningxue's home, Wang Yuyan looked at Qin Xuan and said softly,
"Qin Xuan, I took the liberty of promising to help Ningxue's father heal. You won't blame me, will you?"
"No," Qin Xuan replied with a smile.
"Why?"
"No reason," Qin Xuan said.
This time, it was Wang Yuyan who was a little confused, unable to fathom Qin Xuan's thoughts.
"Don't you want to know why I asked you to come, instead of someone else?"
Qin Xuan shook his head.
"No, I'll help you without asking why."
Having gone through so much together, even if it weren't for today's matter, Qin Xuan would have helped Wang Yuyan without hesitation if she needed him.
Hearing Qin Xuan's words, Wang Yuyan felt a warmth in her heart. Her lips curved upwards, and she said,
"Actually, helping Ningxue's father heal is also for our group, and for Yue'er."
Qin Xuan's interest was piqued. "What does it have to do with Tantai?"
Wang Yuyan tugged at Qin Xuan's arm as they walked towards the parking area, explaining as they went,
"Ningxue's father owns a logistics company. Our Wang Group has overseas markets, and the transportation is handled by Ningxue's father's company. But not long ago, Ningxue's father was ambushed by a competitor and fell from the fourth floor, shattering many of his bones. Simply put, he's become crippled."
"Without Ningxue's father, we lose the transportation company. And in Jiangbei, his company is the largest, and they've been long-term partners with our group, with very friendly prices."
"Now that Ningxue's father is incapacitated, other logistics companies know that if I don't want to give up the overseas market, I must find a new transportation company. And these people are wildly increasing their prices, more than double what they were before. The profit will be significantly reduced."
Qin Xuan asked with some confusion,
"Then what does all this have to do with Tantai?"
Wang Yuyan glared at Qin Xuan and then pinched his arm hard. Since he hadn't activated the Vajra Sutra, Qin Xuan gasped in pain.
"Hiss! Why are you pinching me!"
Wang Yuyan huffed,
"You heartless man, I'm thinking of your wife in every way, and you pretend not to know."
"Yue'er just became CEO not long ago and needs to achieve results to gain respect. So I let her be in charge of the overseas market. Yue'er is very capable, in some ways even I can't compare. The overseas market is huge, much bigger than domestic. With Yue'er's ability, barring any accidents, she will definitely elevate the group's overseas market performance to a new level."
"At that time, who in the group will be able to shake Yue'er's position?"
Only then did Qin Xuan understand that everything Wang Yuyan was doing was for Yue'er.
Thinking of this, Qin Xuan's guilt towards her deepened. She was always helping him and Tantai.
But what could he offer in return?
The crucial point was that she liked him, yet he couldn't accept her affections.
His complex emotions intensified his guilt towards Wang Yuyan.
"What? Want to thank me?" Seeing Qin Xuan's expression, Wang Yuyan smiled knowingly and teased,
"If you really want to thank me, then kiss me again. It was my first kiss, and I didn't expect it to be quite addictive."
"Cough, cough..." Qin Xuan was startled.
"Look at you, you coward. Can't you be more of a man? At the company, you took my first kiss without a word. And when you were tearing my stockings in the utility room, why were you so manly?" Wang Yuyan looked at Qin Xuan with a half-smile.
Qin Xuan shrunk his head, not daring to look at her, feeling like crying without tears and his heart even more tormented.
Since they had broken the ice, Wang Yuyan had become increasingly bold in her words.
"Hmph, I knew you little coward wouldn't dare. Let's go, I'll drive you home. If we don't go back soon, Yue'er will blame me." Seeing Qin Xuan so completely subdued by her, Wang Yuyan's queenly sense of conquest immediately surged.
"Right, Yue'er said you're idle all day, just lying around at home. In that case, you'll be my driver and my personal doctor. My old classmate, Louis, has resigned and returned home. If you don't agree, I'll tell Yue'er that you undressed me, tore my stockings, lifted my skirt, and touched my feet!"
