Chapter 108 - 108 108 Shes Not As Hesitant As You

?Chapter 108: Chapter 108: She’s Not As Hesitant As You Chapter 108: Chapter 108: She’s Not As Hesitant As You If those afternoon tea snacks were bought by Qin Xiu, he would probably be severely scolded and forced to eat all the snacks with his nose.

But because these snacks were bought by Zhu Qianying, the old man didn’t lose his temper at all, but only had Qin Xiu to order some new ones from a different place.

This kind of tolerance, if it happened in the past or to someone else, simply wouldn’t happen.

However, it did happen with Zhu Qianying.

So, at the moment, Qin Xiu really admired Zhu Qianying to no end. He was just short of calling her “boss lady” in front of her and Mr. Yan.

“Never mind, Mr. Yan must be busy. I can’t help with anything here. Those soups and snacks were made by my mom for Mr. Yan. Could you inform him for me, Mr. Qin? I am leaving now, bye-bye!”

After Zhu Qianying was finished speaking, she strided majestically into the elevator. Qin Xiu could only watch as his “boss lady” went into the elevator. It wasn’t until the elevator door closed with a “ding” sound that Qin Xiu snapped out of it.

Only a few minutes after Zhu Qianying left, Mr. Yan stepped out of the elevator and immediately gave orders to Qin Xiu as soon as he saw him.

“Qin Xiu, book two tickets to H City for tonight.”

Qin Xiu quickly ordered the secretary to take care of it and followed into the room.

“What is this?” Mr. Yan asked, his brows furrowed as he pointed at the large shopping bag on his desk.

“Sir, Miss Zhu personally brought this soup and afternoon tea snack for you!”

The icy look on Mr. Yan’s face finally warmed slightly. He looked at Qin Xiu with a slightly raised eyebrow, “Did she make them?”

He reached out, dragged the bag over, and peeked inside at the contents.

Seeing a soup bowl and several obviously home-made food containers, the corner of his lips curled slightly.

Qin Xiu spotted the unmistakable smile hiding behind Mr. Yan’s lips, and found it hard to break the truth to him.

Therefore, he gave a vague nod.

“Hmmm”
Mr. Yan rose abruptly from his chair, washing his face first, “When did she come?”

A vague voice came from the room.

Qin Xiu looked at his watch and answered, “Are you asking about Miss Zhu? She left just twenty minutes ago!”

A low murmur responded from the room, but Qin Xiu couldn’t make out what was said.

Based on Mr. Yan’s tone, he seemed rather annoyed.

After washing his face, Mr. Yan came out refreshed, picked up the bag and headed to the reception room.

“Come and find me in half an hour, we will discuss tonight’s affair.”

As Qin Xiu saw the large bag in Mr. Yan hands, he unconsciously swallowed.

After all, it was almost four o’clock and he was hungry too!

However, his boss didn’t realize his hunger and went straight to the reception room. He took out a bowl and chopsticks from the storage cabinet behind him, poured himself a bowl of steaming hot soup, lightly blew on it, and then slowly took a sip.

Qin Xiu unconsciously licked his lips, and before he could make any more ungraceful movement, he fled from Mr. Yan’s office.

Only after savoring a bowl of soup, Mr. Yan opened the food containers and took out the snacks. Surprisingly, all the snacks that he likes were inside.

He picked up a shrimp dumpling with his chopsticks. The taste was completely incomparable to the store-bought ones…

Thanks to all the meddling from the elders of Tong Family, Mr. Yan has been so busy recently that he could hardly find time for a proper meal and his sleep was significantly reduced. It has been a while since he enjoyed a leisurely afternoon tea.

Half an hour later, Qin Xiu came in promptly and glanced at the reception room which was tidied up.

With a glimmer of hope, Qin Xiu asked, “Sir, have all the snacks been eaten?”

Mr. Yan was leafing through a stack of documents, and without raising his head, he just hummed an affirmative “Hmm” in response.

Qin Xiu was not giving up yet, “And the soup… all gone too?”

Mr. Yan gave the same affirmative hum again!

Only then did Qin Xiu give up completely. Even though the chefs and pastry chefs at Mingxuan Hotel were famous for their delicious dishes and snacks, no one’s culinary skills were better than those of Zhu Qianying’s mother, Chen Jing.

He had heard that the old man of Zhu Family was so impressed with Chen Jing’s culinary skills that he had married her into his fourth wife’s room to take care of his diet.

Thinking about the taste of food he had never tried before, Qin Xiu quietly cursed, “Stingy!”

“Ma Peng was ambushed at noon today, and he is still unconscious. You and I will go over, if necessary, you stay there and deal with the aftermath, I have other things to take care of.”

Upon hearing about why Mr. Yan wanted to go to H City, Qin Xiu was shocked and looked at Mr. Yan with surprise.

“Ma Peng was ambushed? Who did it?”

Both Ma Peng and Tong Yong are retired Special Forces: their skill and intellect are second to none, qualifying as individuals of bravery and wisdom. Yan entrusted them with handling all the businesses in H City, and Ma Peng’s incident is akin to half of the sky falling.

“We’re not quite sure yet, Tong Yong is in the process of investigating. You quickly finish up your work and leave to take a look.”

Qin Xiu nodded and quickly exited.

The pair were kept busy until the evening. When everything was finally sorted out, a chauffeur was arranged to take them to the airport.

On the way, they discussed the situation in H City. Suddenly Qin Xiu remembered something, “Sir, have you called Miss Zhu?”

Mr. Yan merely shook his head. “No!”

Qin Xiu clicked his tongue, “Sir, since Miss Zhu specially delivered afternoon tea snacks for you, shouldn’t you call her or send her a message to thank her?”

Mr. Yan glared at him, “She is not as nagging as you!”

As Mr. Yan said this, he could imagine that if he were to call Zhu Qianying, she would most likely have an annoyed look on her face.

Qin Xiu objected, “Sir, it’s not nagging, it’s a way to connect and build feelings.”

Mr. Yan disregarded him, looking out of the window, as if lost in thought.

Feeling that his boss didn’t understand women at all, Qin Xiu couldn’t help but advise again.

“Sir! Even if Miss Zhu is not nagging, she is just a twenty-year-old girl! You are so much older than her, you should occasionally comfort her!”

Hearts need to be cherished and kept warm to remain hot.

With Mr. Yan’s cool demeanor and not responding to others’ overtures, a heart, even if hot, will cool down and become cold.

Especially since the two of them haven’t warmed up to each other yet.

Mr. Yan’s gaze shifted from the window back to Qin Xiu, and with a faint look said, “There’s none of those things between us and we don’t need it either!”

Left speechless, Qin Xiu had nothing to say!
