141: Chapter 141 The beast spotted its prey!

"President Qin!"

The man in black raised his head, looking up at Qin Xun with a face full of sincerity as he shouted loudly.

"I'm Little Zhang, the one who used to slide money under your door!"

Qin Xun thought for a moment and remembered, but he pretended not to know, asking in confusion.

"Little Zhang?"

Little Zhang said,

"Little Zhang, the account manager from Flying Leopard Headhunting Company."

He patted the money in the briefcase in his hand, his face beaming with smiles.

"Mr. Qin, a large company has offered you an annual salary of 10 million, and this is 1 million as a gesture of sincerity."

"I hope you can give me five minutes to explain everything to you in detail."

Qin Xun looked down at Little Zhang from above, feeling a bit embarrassed.

He looked up and noticed many passersby around were looking over with strange expressions.

They probably mistook Little Zhang for some desperate lover, kneeling on the ground with a bag of money to propose.

He made a gesture as if to help him up.

"Little Zhang, get up. We can talk this over slowly."

Little Zhang shook his head.

"If you don't agree, I won't get up!"

A chorus of gasps erupted from the surroundings.

The onlookers slowly began to gather around.

In the crowd, Xia Ning's brow furrowed when she heard the words "talk this over slowly," and she shot a look at Qian Yunfa.

Qian Yunfa understood immediately.

Someone was trying to snatch the absolute core employee of Miss Xia's Oak Company.

He reached out and patted Sun Hua's shoulder hard, lowering his voice.

"Beat Little Zhang within an inch of his life!"

Sun Hua was startled, but seeing Qian Yunfa's solemn expression, he knew his chance to prove his worth had come.

He nodded, began cursing, and lunged at Little Zhang.

"F*ck your mother!"

"What kind of headhunting company is so arrogant!"

"How dare you poach someone right in front of their colleagues?"

"You've broken the rules, you know that?"

The two of them began scuffling together.

Little Zhang's voice also rang out.

"F*ck you!"

"Why are you hitting so dirty?"

"Ow... my balls!"

"None of your damn business!"

Qin Xun hurriedly backed away, retreating to the side of Xia Ning and An Ke.

The surrounding onlookers pulled out their phones to film, and many girls were clicking their tongues in wonder.

"Two men fighting over another man... the world is full of wonders!"

"That guy is playing dirty too, trying to end the other's lineage just to get a fundamental victory!"

"Hey! The money's everywhere!"

"It would be so nice if all that money was given to me!"

...

Qin Xun listened to the discussions around him, his face darkening.

Truly, fujoshis see 'BL' everywhere.

Soon.

The commotion attracted patrolling police, who hauled both of them off to the police station.

As they were being led away, Little Zhang shouted.

"President Qin, wait for me!"

"You must wait for me to get out!"

"You have to wait for me!"

"Don't say yes to anyone else!"

The fujoshis around were stomping their feet in excitement, all looking toward Qin Xun.

"Now that's love!"

"Heterosexuality is for reproduction; same-sex is true love."

"I'm so envious..."

Qin Xun: "..."

Love your mother's twisted dough sticks!

At this moment, Sun Hua was seen looking back every few steps as the police led him away, shouting at the top of his lungs.

"Boss, you have to remember!"

"I've done great service for the company! I've shed blood for the company!"

Qin Xun looked at Qian Yunfa, wanting to see his reaction.

Xia Ning noticed Qin Xun's movement; her expression remained unchanged, knowing Sun Hua's words were meant for her ears.

Sun Hua was taken away.

Qian Yunfa felt that this 'self-sacrifice' ploy was brilliantly executed. In a great mood, he invited Qin Xun's group into a private room.

No one cared about Sun Hua's fate anymore.

...

The food and drinks were served.

Qian Yunfa raised a glass and downed it in one go.

"President Qin, I'll tell you the truth. When I first saw this proposal, I thought it would be very difficult to implement."

"I never would have expected!"

"The effect would actually be this good!"

"This move of yours has practically brought our company back to life, giving a way out for us middle-aged men with families to support!"

As he spoke, he gestured for the others to join him in toasting Qin Xun.

...

It was hard to refuse such hospitality.

Qin Xun drank glass after glass until he was tipsy and his consciousness began to blur.

Only then did the group let him be.

They left him sitting alone on a stool, grinning foolishly.

Xia Ning used a tissue to wipe the corners of Qin Xun's mouth, looking like a mother taking care of a landlord's dim-witted son.

An Ke had a few drinks, and thinking about the pressure and exhaustion of the past few days, her eyes suddenly reddened, and a single tear escaped.

Suddenly.

She felt someone leaning toward her, and Qin Xun's voice rang out.

"Eh?"

"An Ke, are you... crying?"

An Ke blinked, forcing the tears back, and turned to look at the drunken Qin Xun.

"President Qin, I'm not crying."

Qin Xun tilted his head, staring intently at An Ke for a while before saying slurringly,

"Your eyes are all red and wet, and you still say you're not crying."

An Ke: "..."

She was so exasperated she laughed!

For someone who was supposedly a pro gamer—where they say you don't kill someone who's used their Flash—why was he still relentlessly pursuing her like this?

Suddenly.

She saw Qin Xun turn his head and say to Xia Ning beside him.

"Little Xia, give An Ke a hug."

"She's crying!"

Xia Ning: "Huh?"

An Ke: "???"

Qin Xun explained.

"Don't you like adopting everyone as your son?"

"Today... adopt a daughter too!"

"Then you'll have a 'son' and a 'daughter' to make the word 'Good'."

An Ke gave Xia Ning an embarrassed look and quickly poured a glass of water for Qin Xun.

"President Qin, you're drunk."

Xia Ning, however, kept a cold face and poured a bit more baijiu into a glass, forcing it into Qin Xun's mouth.

"No, he's not drunk yet."

"He still remembers how to write the word 'Good'!"

...

It was unclear how long they ate.

The celebration banquet finally came to an end.

Qin Xun was supported on both sides by Xia Ning and An Ke as they stumbled out of the restaurant.

They had only walked a few steps.

Suddenly!

"Brother!"

A familiar voice came from a distance.

Qin Xun turned his head, eyes widening as he vaguely saw a girl rushing toward them.

She got closer and closer.

It seemed to be Song Ying.

Even closer.

It really was Song Ying.

Just as a smile appeared on his face, he saw Song Ying come to a screeching halt right in front of him.

Song Ying had a beaming smile as she raised both hands and covered his face.

"Brother, guess who..."

She paused, her voice suddenly carrying a hint of anger.

"Guess who the f*ck I am!"

Qin Xun's vision went pitch black. He shook his head but couldn't shake off Song Ying's palms; instead, he felt even dizzier.

He let out a helpless sigh.

"Xiao Ying, what... what are you doing?"

Song Ying said huffily,

"I've been in Flower City for so many days, have you looked for me even once?"

Qin Xun felt a bit guilty and had no reply, so he simply closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.

Once his eyes were closed, his mind felt light, as if he could drift off at any moment. It was very comfortable.

His consciousness grew fainter and fainter.

He seemed to fall into a state of chaos.

Suddenly.

Xia Ning and An Ke felt Qin Xun's body become much heavier. With a strained gasp, they quickly held him up with both hands.

"Why did he suddenly become so heavy?"

"Did he fall asleep?"

Song Ying released her hands and saw Qin Xun's eyes tightly shut, his breathing long and steady.

She let out a sigh.

"Sigh..."

"I've seen people use the 'bathroom escape,' but I never thought I'd see a 'sleep escape.'"

Suddenly.

The sound of high heels came from behind. She turned around to look.

It was Mi Xier, dressed in a cheongsam, walking over elegantly and seductively.

Her assistant followed behind her.

Mi Xier glanced at Qin Xun, who was being supported by two beauties with his head hanging down, and narrowed her eyes slightly.

Like a beast that had spotted its prey!
