Chapter 976: Chapter 976 I’m Already Married!

Ling Yuqian’s eyes lit up the moment he saw Jian Dan.

Although neither Jian Dan nor Qin Rou noticed this change, the Zhang-surnamed manager saw it very clearly.

Based on Ling Yuqian’s reaction, his feelings for Jian Dan were not as “simple” as he had claimed.

“Hello!” Jian Dan walked over and shook hands with them both. “Please, have a seat!”

“This is the contract I’ve prepared. Please take a look!” Qin Rou said, getting straight to the point after sitting down and passing the contract over to them.

The manager Zhang read the contract carefully, while Ling Yuqian’s gaze lingered more on Jian Dan.

“The contract is fine, but we need to add a clause. Yuqian has many other obligations recently, so we’ll need a reasonable schedule.”

“But if we add this clause, doesn’t that mean you can leave anytime you want? That could easily delay the filming process,” Qin Rou pointed out.

“If that’s the case, the contract might…”

Before manager Zhang could finish, Ling Yuqian had already interjected, “It’s fine without that clause, but I have one request!”

“What request?”

“I would like her to be present throughout the filming period,” Ling Yuqian said, nodding toward Jian Dan.

Qin Rou had already noticed Ling Yuqian’s odd look at Jian Dan just now, and it seemed her suspicions were confirmed.

“Sure!” Jian Dan agreed immediately without a second thought.

“Excellent! Then it’s settled,” Ling Yuqian said with a flourish, signing his name on the contract.

“Jian, are you sure about this?” Qin Rou whispered to Jian Dan’s ear.

“Of course, I’m sure. Haven’t you also said this is a rare learning opportunity?”

“But…”

“No buts, I can handle it!” Jian Dan thought Qin Rou was worried about her!

“I’ll see you on set then,” Ling Yuqian said as he handed back the signed contract to Jian Dan, then got up to leave with manager Zhang.

“See you then!”

After they left, Jian Dan patted Qin Rou on the shoulder. “Rou, stop worrying. I know I’m not very skilled, but isn’t Mu Yi there to help me out?”

“You think that’s what I’m worried about?” Qin Rou said helplessly.

“Then what is it?”

“It’s… just that! Do your best!” Qin Rou didn’t share her own observations with Jian Dan.

Some things are better left unknown!

“I’ll be fine!”

Qin Rou couldn’t help but worry about the carefree Jian Dan.

When Qin Rou returned to the office with the contract, she saw Zhang Qian standing at the door.

“What’s up? Need to talk to me?” she asked, seeing Zhang Qian hesitating to speak. “Come in and talk.”

They both entered the office…

“So, what is it?” Qin Rou leaned against her desk. “This isn’t like you. What happened?” When had Zhang Qian ever been so hesitant?

After taking a deep breath with his head lowered, Zhang Qian slowly looked up, his face serious and devoid of his usual frivolous demeanor. “Qin Rou, I like you!”

This sudden confession caught Qin Rou off guard. “You haven’t just lost a dare, have you?”

“I’m very serious, Qin Rou!” Zhang Qian’s expression was incredibly earnest.

“Playing with your boss is not a wise choice, is it?”

“Look into my eyes…” Zhang Qian leaned closer to her. “I. Like. You!” he enunciated clearly.

“If you’re serious, then let me also be clear with you, I can’t accept you. Because I’m already married!” she revealed, showing the ring on her hand to Zhang Qian.

“Married?” Zhang Qian had always thought she just had a boyfriend and believed he still had a chance.

“That’s right, I’ve been married for many years!”

Zhang Qian’s eyes dimmed, “Sorry to have bothered you, I’ll be going now!”

Without any delay, Zhang Qian left Qin Rou’s office…
