"Miss Ye, I've heard a lot about you. My name is Su Xiaoxiao and I'm Chairman Qin's female companion."

A look of disdain flashed in Ye Feilan's eyes. "I'm sorry, Miss Su. My father has taught me that I can't shake hands with someone whose identity is unsuitable."

Su Xiaoxiao blinked her large eyes with an innocent look. "Oh? What do you mean by 'status is inappropriate'? "

She walked to his side and took his arm, but Qin Guan didn't stop her.

Seeing Su Xiaoxiao place her hand in the crook of Qin Guan's arm, Ye Feilan's eyes turned red from jealousy as she glared fiercely at him.

"Of course it's those lowly commoners who can't identify themselves and want to climb higher!"

"Fei Lan, shut up!"

Upon seeing this, Father Ye hurriedly rushed over to stop him, but it was already too late.

Ye Feilan's words caused everyone to be in an uproar as they hastily sized up Qin Guan's expression.

As everyone knew, Qin Guan had built his own company from scratch. From the age of twenty until now, he had turned the Qin family into the leading company in C City. He could be said to be a young hero.

There were also people who secretly mocked Qin Guan's identity, but Ye Feilan was the first person who dared to sign and say it out in front of him.

After all, Ye Feilan was still young, and she had been pampered since she was young so she couldn't think of anything to say.

By the time he reacted, it was already too late.

She was so scared that her entire body was trembling. She pitifully stepped forward, wanting to tug on Qin Guan's sleeve. "Big Brother Qin, didn't I say that you …"

"Then who are you talking about?"

He stared at Ye Feilan with an unfathomable expression.

Ye Feilan did not expect Qin Guan to respond to her. She was stunned for a moment before hurriedly saying, "I'm talking about the woman beside you, she …"

"She is my woman. Do you have any objections to my woman?"

Once Qin Guan said this, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.

At this banquet, everyone was well aware of the female companions that the rich brought along. It was just for fun. To be called "my woman" by Qin Zheng in public, he was afraid that this person's identity was extraordinary.

Quite a number of people who had previously mocked Su Xiaoxiao both publicly and secretly lowered their heads in regret.

Su Xiaoxiao was also stunned. She raised her head and stared at the side of Qin Guan's face. He had a sharp jaw, a high nose bridge, and a pair of eyes that were full of dark mist despite their profoundness.

She told herself not to think too much about it, but she could not help it.

Father Ye knew that once Qin Feng said those words, he would turn hostile.

He quickly pulled Ye Feilan and scolded her in a low voice, "Hurry and apologize to Director Qin and Miss Su!"

Although she was pampered, Ye Feilan was still good or bad. Although she was unwilling, she still lowered her head. "I'm sorry, Chairman Qin. I'm sorry, Miss Su."

Qin Guan turned his head to look at Su Xiaoxiao.

Su Xiaoxiao was stunned as she did not know what he meant.

Qin Guan heard him chuckle and said, "I'm afraid she won't be able to forgive you. Director Ye, we'll have to discuss our cooperation a bit more."

Then, he ignored the reactions of the father and daughter of the Ye family behind him and left with Su Xiaoxiao.

Walking out of the banquet hall, Su Xiaoxiao withdrew her hand from Qin Guan's somewhat uncomfortable hand.

She said in embarrassment: "Chairman Qin, didn't you say that we aren't that kind of relationship?"

Qin Guan looked at her with a strange look, "I'm only looking for an excuse to negotiate terms with the Ye Family. Don't think too much about it."

"…"

Su Xiaoxiao felt that she must have gone crazy. Otherwise, why did she keep putting on an act today?

"In that case, I'll go back first."

"Wait."

Su Xiaoxiao turned around and saw that man standing there against the light. Her heart suddenly skipped a beat.
