210: Is Chen Qiu seeking a marriage alliance?

An Yi was stunned!

Before Chen Qiu spoke, he had already prepared himself to agree to some rather excessive conditions, as long as they didn't violate any principles.

This was also understandable.

After all, An Yi knew that Chen Qiu hadn't chosen a top-tier city for his headquarters but had opted for Gannan instead. Wasn't that just to gain a more transcendent status and better resources here?

Based on the performance of the technology Chen Qiu had presented, the city could—and must—grant him that status and those resources!

However, An Yi never expected this.

The first request from this young CEO, who possessed immense abilities and background, was actually to ask about the blind date partner he had been promised previously?

This question was indeed beyond An Yi's expectations.

He froze for a moment before finally reacting.

“A blind date partner?”

“Last time I asked for you, President Chen, there were indeed a few good girls of the right age who aren't married yet. But I heard from their elders that they don't have plans to get married yet...”

“How about I ask around for you again tonight, President Chen?”

An Yi said.

In fact, he really had asked last time.

And the replies were indeed as he stated!

But whether it was because they looked down on Chen Qiu's family background or they truly didn't plan to marry... An Yi thought it was likely the former.

After all, the higher one went, the more emphasis was placed on matching social status and family background!

On the surface, Chen Qiu's family background was too thin. Although being the CEO and Chief Planner of the Cultural Industry Group was impressive, it wasn't enough to make those people sit up and take notice.

Now, it was different!

During this time, under his silent observation, Chen Qiu had been busy acquiring quite a few companies.

Combined with the medical beauty institution that had infinite potential, An Yi thought: This is already enough to tempt those old fogies!

Hearing this, Chen Qiu said with a hint of anticipation.

“Then I'll await your good news, Minister An!”

“Don't worry, President Chen!”

“I'll definitely find a few suitable girls for you this time!”

An Yi promised solemnly.

As he spoke, he saw his wife, Meng Li, who had just returned home, looking at him with a strange expression.

It seemed she had misinterpreted what he had just said.

An Yi found it hard to explain, so he proceeded to discuss the registration of the Medical Beauty Brand and related policy support with Chen Qiu.

To An Yi's surprise, besides the blind date, Chen Qiu really didn't raise any other demands.

Instead, it made him feel a bit uneasy.

To avoid any complications and ensure the Medical Beauty Brand's headquarters remained in Gannan, he proactively and preemptively promised Chen Qiu various policy supports, such as tax exemptions and talent supply.

After hanging up, An Yi lamented.

“It seems this President Chen is quite confident in his Medical Beauty Brand!”

Meng Li poured him a glass of warm water and asked suggestively.

“I heard this President Chen isn't even thirty yet. At that age, it's only human nature to be fond of women...”

Before she could finish, An Yi interrupted her, feeling both amused and annoyed.

“What are you thinking?”

Meng Li frowned slightly and said softly.

“Didn't you just say you'd find him...”

Meng Li didn't finish her sentence.

A few of them, and suitable girls.

Isn't that just blatant pimping!

“You've got it all wrong. President Chen asked me to introduce him to a blind date partner!”

An Yi shook his head and explained.

Hearing this, a hint of astonishment flashed in Meng Li's eyes.

“A blind date partner?”

“Yes, and it's not the first time!”

An Yi then recounted the little farce that happened after Chen Qiu's previous blind date and how he had asked for help finding another one.

After listening, Meng Li felt it was quite extraordinary.

“His career is skyrocketing, yet he's in such a hurry to get married through blind dates?”

“Could it be that he wants a marriage alliance?”

An Yi shook his head gently.

“Doesn't seem like it!”

If Chen Qiu were after the woman's family resources or had thoughts of a political or business marriage alliance, he wouldn't need to go on blind dates with girls from ordinary backgrounds.

That would be a pure waste of time!

“So, he really wants to find a suitable girl through blind dates?”

Meng Li clicked her tongue in wonder, becoming somewhat curious about this young man.

For their generation, blind dating was the orthodox way to meet a girl and enter the halls of marriage!

And could a man who wants to meet women through such an orthodox method like blind dating really be a bad person?

Capable, upright, and supposedly good-looking... Meng Li's eyes darted around as she asked tentatively.

“You know, Wanwan has been graduated for over two years. In the blink of an eye, she'll be 25. If she waits another two years, she'll be almost 30. Why don't we let Wanwan...”

An Yi looked at his wife in surprise, not expecting her thoughts to jump so wildly.

Just a moment ago, she thought he was pimping for Chen Qiu, and now she's thinking of offering up their own daughter?

“That won't work!”

“Wanwan is his secretary and they see each other every day. If he liked her, would he still ask me to introduce him to other blind date partners?”

“That's true.”

Meng Li sighed.

Her daughter was so adorably ditzy that she was really afraid that if she dated a boy with bad intentions, she'd get cheated and still help him count the money.

“Isn't Wanwan good friends with that girl from the Mu Family?”

“I remember that girl is two years older than Wanwan. She hasn't married yet, right?”

“I wonder if she has a boyfriend?”

Hearing this, Meng Li said softly.

“When Wanwan comes back, we'll know if we ask her.”

“More importantly, did you mention Professor Qi to President Chen just now?”

As soon as Meng Li finished speaking, she saw a look of astonishment on An Yi's face and said helplessly.

“You forgot to mention it?”

Since the actual effects of the Non-Invasive Gene-Targeted Anti-Aging Technique were verified, Professor Qi has been wanting to meet Chen Qiu!

Or rather, to meet the research and development team behind Chen Qiu!

He wants to learn and exchange ideas with them.

“This kind of thing isn't easy to bring up. Next time, I'll organize a dinner and let Professor Qi ask him personally.”

An Yi said, shaking his head.

The research and development team behind him?

That's equivalent to prying into his foundation. Chen Qiu's medical beauty headquarters hasn't even begun to take shape yet; he wouldn't do something that might offend him.

“I suppose that's the only way.”

Meng Li nodded...
