The restaurant was very quiet. Other than the crisp sound of a spoon and a cup clinking together, there was nothing else.
Su Qing sat in a private seat as she looked at the information in her hands in silence.
Qu Zhong sat in front of her and leisurely cut off a piece of steak, shoved it into his mouth and slowly chewed.
"Where is Shi Xingcan now?" She raised her eyes and glanced at Qu Zhong.
"How would I know?" Qu Zhong replied as if it was as natural as before, "Right now, it's not easy for me to even look at Qin Yanmo, much less Shi Xingcan."
"Why did Qin Yanmo leave you at the company?" Suspicion appeared in Su Qing's eyes, "I don't think he has that kind of intentions."
Qu Zhong elegantly wiped the sauce on the corner of his mouth with a napkin, revealed a smile, and revealed a mouthful of white teeth: Because I helped him get rid of a lot of people.
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Qing's expression darkened. Suppressing her anger, she said in a low voice, "Qu Zhong, don't forget who you're working with."
Qu Zhong laughed unconcernedly, and changed the topic: "The time home's profits have been quite good recently."
When Su Qing heard this, she sneered and said, "That idiot Qin Yanmo, even the people under him have turned traitor …"
Realizing she had said too much, she stopped herself and said, "This has nothing to do with you."
Qu Zhong's face did not change at all, and he asked: What do you plan to do?
As if unconsciously brushing away the buttons on his sleeve, there was a small bug that Qin Yanmo had given him.
At that time, he even asked curiously, "Where did you buy this?"
Qin Yanmo merely looked at him coldly, reminding him to stop with the nonsense.
Su Qing's expression was still cold as she scoffed, "I want to find out where that bitch is first!"
"Since she recovered her memories, she must have been hidden by Qin Yanmo." Qu Zhong pretended to be serious and said, "It's impossible to find them with just the two of us."
Su Qing chuckled and said: "That's because you can't find it, and it doesn't mean that I can't find it."
Although Qu Zhong had not stepped into the circle for a long time, he still knew the general situation. He pretended to be curious and asked: "What solution do you have?"
Su Qing's eyes flashed a few times, and said: "This has nothing to do with you."
Qin Yanmo who was listening in from his office had a change in expression, a traitor had appeared in the company!
He hid the news very well when he invited Qu Zhong in. Other than the two of them, no one knew that Young Master Qu was still working here all those years ago.
Even Zhuo Jun and Hou Rui only knew that there was an employee in the company who did not go into business everyday and was not fired. They only thought that he was one of Qin Yanmo's friends or relatives who came to the company to mess around until they died.
After all, the Qin family did not lack money.
"Since it has nothing to do with me, then why are you looking for me?" Qu Zhong scoffed in disdain, then, his expression changed, "Or did Shi Jun die too long ago, so you can't suppress the loneliness in your heart anymore?"
To be fair, Su Qing was not bad. Although she was not as heaven-defying as Bai Ronghua, she could still be considered a beautiful woman.
She was also wearing a red dress today, and her curly long hair was draped over her back.
Qu Zhong sighed regretfully in his heart. If he was thirty years younger, he might have been tempted.
Before Shi Jun passed away, he had only worn the simple colors of black and white, fitting her status as an elegant lady.
But after Shi Mengxi and Shi Jun passed away one after the other, she no longer had any scruples in her heart, and only had the thought of revenge left.
"The one who is lonely is you, right?" Su Qing picked up the cup of coffee in front of her and took a sip gracefully, "Even I, an old granny who's almost 50 years old, find Young Master Qu very degenerate."
Ever since she had taken over the time home, she had met with so many social events every day. She had heard even more explicit things than this before, some even straight up touched others, thus she seemed to be indifferent towards Qu Zhong's offense.
Qu Zhong scoffed, and cursed "old slut" in his heart. On the surface, he still pretended to be a gentleman, and asked: "What the hell did you call me here for?"
"Help me confuse Qin Yanmo."
Qu Zhong chuckled and said: "You have to find an eighteen year old girl to do this, I can't do it."
The veins on Su Qing's forehead stood out, and she said: "Qin Yanmo leaving you at the company means that you are useful to him, and since it is useful, you can see him."
"So what if I see him?" Qu Zhong looked lazy, as though he would fall asleep anytime, "He won't listen to me, I'm just a small employee who doesn't care."
"Is that so?" Su Qing's expression became intrigued, "But what I heard was that you were late to work everyday, and haven't been fired yet."
"Not only was he not expelled, his salary was not a little bit lower. Jiang Jin will continue to do so." The corner of Su Qing's mouth curled up maliciously, "If he really does hate you, then what right do I have to let you off so easily?!"
Qu Zhong was quiet for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled: "Maybe Qu Biao spoke up for me. There's no other way, having a son is good."
These words seemed to prick the sore point of Su Qing.
Back then, the reason Shi Jun brought a woman back from the outside was because he wanted a son.
And when she gave birth to Shi Mengxi, her body was already injured so she wouldn't be able to do it again.
However, she reacted quickly and immediately calmed herself down, reverting back to her original serious look. She said, "Are you willing? Qu Biao was originally your biological son. "
Qu Zhong smiled calmly and said: "If I was willing, how would I agree to your cooperation?"
However, Su Qing looked at him suspiciously. Previously, Qu Family and time home had always maintained a good cooperative relationship, so she had a certain understanding of Qu Zhong's personality.
If he really was unwilling, he would definitely not be as calm as he was now.
Although he didn't express it on the surface, the seeds of doubt had already been planted in his heart.
"When I contact you, use every means at your disposal to hold Qin Yanmo back. What happens next has nothing to do with you." Su Qing looked lazy, but his eyes were sharp.
"Madam Xu, if you don't tell me your plan, it will be hard for me to work with you without any grudges." Qu Zhong said casually.
Qin Yanmo who was listening in at the office smirked and sighed to himself.
Su Qing frowned, her tone revealed some impatience: "Do you want to get rid of Qin Yanmo or not?"
"Of course I want to, but I'm not stupid." Qu Zhong's tone was cold and hard, "Even at the most flourishing time in Qu Family, you might not be able to get rid of the current Qin family, so why should I take the risk of losing my job to help you?"
"Or is it that Madam Shi will be willing to raise me in the future? "First of all, I'm very good at spending money."
Qu Zhong originally thought that Su Qing would tell her plan after he said this, but Su Qing merely looked at him coldly and said: "It's fine if you don't help, but I can still take care of Shi Xingcan without you as an idiot!"
Qu Zhong slightly narrowed his eyes. The remaining matter of her running away would not be easy to resolve.
He laughed disdainfully and said, "Why are you doing this? Is there any relative in the family who is a leader of the country or is time home who is now involved in the underworld business? "
Su Qing only coldly looked at him, and said: "This has nothing to do with you, you can only choose whether or not you want to cooperate with me."
Just as Qu Zhong was planning out what to do next, his phone vibrated, and he lowered his head to take a look.
It was from Qin Yanmo, with only three words, "Agree to her."
Thus, he chuckled and pretended to not care at all as he said, "Alright then. I'll agree. But I have a condition."
Su Qing propped her chin up with both hands and looked at him with disdain.
"I don't know what method you are planning to use to kill Qin Yanmo or even Shi Xingcan, and I'm not interested, but as long as you are able to obtain any benefits from this, I want half of it."
Su Qing snorted: "No problem, isn't it just money?"
She had as many of these things as she wanted, but only someone like Qu Zhong, who had no future prospects, would keep staring at the small gain in front of her.
After the conversation was over, Qu Zhong wiped his mouth gracefully with a napkin and said: "I still have work to do in the afternoon, so I'll have to trouble you to settle the bill now."
After which, he turned and left.
Su Qing stared at his straight back, her eyes cold.
The feeling Qu Zhong gave him was not right, maybe he should follow and take a look?
Seated on the office sofa, Shi Xingcan looked at Qin Yanmo with boredom, and said: "Yan Mo, I want to go home now."
Qin Yanmo sighed, and said: "Stay here for a while."
"But I want to go home and see Xiao Baozi. Today, Jiang Xiaopang is coming to our house to play."
Shi Xingcan was very curious about her friends who she never left her side, would video chat whenever she was free, and would be so unhappy that she couldn't eat without seeing her friends for a few days.
Qin Yanmo laughed and said: "Then, shall I accompany you back home?"
"You still have to work." Shi Xingcan rejected her.
Even though he was the boss, he couldn't openly show off his skills.
"Yan Mo." Shi Xingcan walked in front of Qin Yanmo and plopped down on his lap, hugging his neck and said spoiled, "Let me go home."
Qin Yanmo had seen all kinds of Shi Xingcan, happy, sad and miserable.
It was rare to see her act like a spoiled child, especially when she was acting like a spoiled child towards him. Furthermore, she even directly sat on his thigh.
He covered up his coughing and said, "How about this, I'll get the driver to pick you up. You can get off from my private elevator. Don't wander around, don't chat with others, just go downstairs."
The elevator was directly connected to the underground parking lot, so Old Li could go there to pick him up.
Although he was a little doubtful of his rare display of tyranny, his curiosity towards Jiang Xiaopang defeated that doubt.
She nodded obediently, pressed a kiss onto his cheek and said: "Yan Mo, you're the best!"
Qin Yanmo remained calm on the surface. Looking at Shi Xingcan who was on her lap, the little seed that was buried in her heart started to grow crazily, following the fluttering of the light breeze, it almost made him want to dance with it.
But no, he had to act like a reliable adult.
At a place where Shi Xingcan couldn't see her, he opened his palm and tightened it. After the agitation passed, he grabbed Shi Xingcan who was about to leave, pulled her into his embrace and kissed her bright red lips.
After a deep kiss, Shi Xingcan blushed as she looked at him.
Qin Yanmo let out a low laugh from his throat. Shi Xingcan could feel that the pectoral muscles in his palm were trembling as he said, "I can't hold it in anymore."
Shi Xingcan lowered her head and smiled, suddenly feeling that staying with him was not a bad thing.
"I'm going down. Old Li is already waiting for me downstairs." Shi Xingcan twisted his butt and broke free from Qin Yanmo's body, as if he was escaping from the atmosphere of the office.
Qin Yanmo laughed. He had already been back for so long, why was he still shy?
The kissed Shi Xingcan walked to the front of the elevator and pressed the button on the first floor.
