Chapter 305: He Was Investigating Her
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Nan Yan was unexpectedly moved.
If it were just sweet talk from any other man, she might have dismissed it.
But with Qin Lu’s words, it was more than just trying to make her happy. He said it because he meant it.
Pausing for a moment, she suppressed her somewhat restless heartbeat and supported her head with one hand, asking with a playful tone, “Big brother, aren’t you afraid of spoiling me?”
Qin Lu, with a tender and affectionate look in his eyes, lifted the corner of his mouth with a hint of wickedness and asked, “Then why don’t you teach me, Yanyan, how to spoil you properly?”
If he spoiled her, he wouldn’t have to worry about other young wolves trying to snatch her away.
What a great idea.
Nan Yan knew she couldn’t compete with Qin Lu when it came to teasing, so she rolled her eyes at him ungracefully and lowered her head to continue eating.
Qin Lu didn’t persist in teasing her further; instead, he chuckled lightly and picked up his utensils elegantly.
They finished their meal in about forty minutes.
He had given the executives an hour to take care of their biological needs, and in another twenty minutes, he would have to return to the meeting.
Watching the girl efficiently place all the dishes and bowls into the lunchbox, Qin Lu poured two cups of tea and inquired, “Do you want to stay here for a while longer, or would you like to go back?”
Nan Yan considered for a moment and replied, “Let’s stay here for a little while longer.”
Going back home meant she would have to endure Old Madam Qin talking about her life goals again. Though telling the truth would make her seem somewhat heartless, the truth was that it was getting quite annoying.
For the past few days, Old Madam Qin had been staying at the An family’s old mansion and whenever she returned from school, the old lady would grab her and start chattering endlessly.
She had a good temper, and even if she felt annoyed, she wouldn’t show it on the surface.
If it were someone else, they would probably have long lost patience with the old lady’s incessant nagging.
“Alright, feel free to use anything in the office. If you decide to go back, just let me know, and I’ll have Wu Yue send you,” Qin Lu said.
“Big brother, you just reminded me.”
Nan Yan quickly took out her phone and informed the Qin family’s driver, who was waiting outside, to return first.
After enjoying a cup of tea, Qin Lu returned to the meeting room.
As soon as he stepped out of his office, he noticed a few people outside acting
furtively, glancing in his direction. However, when they saw him, they quickly
dispersed, each pretending to be just passing by.
Qin Lu didn’t pay much attention to their behavior.
After all, he had anticipated this outcome when he asked Nan Yan to come to the company to bring him dinner.
One could say that Qin Lu had deliberately arranged this.
After all, there were no women around him, and it was always Wu Yue who busied himself by his side.
Rumors had spread not only that he was gay but also that he and Wu Yue were a couple.
Although Qin Lu sneered at such baseless rumors, being misunderstood like this and having people fantasize about him and Wu Yue was quite annoying.
Now that Nan Yan was here, the rumors would likely die down on their own.
Back in the meeting room, Wu Yue immediately approached and asked with a servile tone, “Young Master, has Miss Nan already gone back?”
“No,” Qin Lu gave him a casual glance. “Yanyan is in the office, playing around.
When she decides to leave later, you can take her.”
Wu Yue immediately straightened his posture. “Understood!”
Nan Yan was actually just looking for a way to pass the time.
Seeing his computer, she remembered something she wanted to check, so she sat down in his boss’s chair directly.
There was a password on the computer, so she sent a message directly to him, asking: “Big brother, what’s the password for the computer? I want to use it for a while.”
In the meeting room, Qin Lu was preparing to resume the previous meeting.
His phone, placed on the table, lit up.
He was about to speak, but then swallowed his words and picked up his phone. After seeing the message sent by Nan Yan, a trace of indulgence appeared in his eyes.
In the meeting room, the attention of all the executives, who had been sitting attentively, shifted to their boss sitting in the main seat.
They were met with the sight of their CEO smiling so indulgently.
Damn…
When CEO Qin smiled, it was too romantic!
It seemed that CEO Qin’s good fortune was indeed on the horizon!
This scene not only confirmed the suspicion of the executives, who had been wondering if Qin Lu had a girlfriend, but also made them certain of the news.
It seemed that Assistant Wu knew the inside story!
After the meeting, they would definitely inquire with Assistant Wu about the details. They couldn’t afford to accidentally offend the future Mrs. Qin!
Qin Lu paid no attention to the executives’ inner thoughts and psychological activities. After opening the message from Nan Yan and entering six digits, he added a sentence: “Feel free to use it.
With the computer password in hand, Nan Yan replied with a “Thank you, big brother” and then tossed her phone aside. She unlocked the computer and opened a web page.
Qin Lu’s computer had a memory function, so after opening a webpage, it would directly display the pages he frequently used during this period.
So, when Nan Yan clicked on it, she saw that the messages were all about investigating her.
Not the current her, but her true self…
Nan Yan’s expression became slightly serious. She wasn’t worried that Qin Lu would harm her, even in her original identity, she didn’t recall having any interactions with Qin Lu. It’s just that she wondered why he was investigating her.
Back in the M country, all her achievements in the lab were claimed by Xi Shijin. While her other identities had some fame, they also had many enemies, all waiting to kill her.
So, what kind of person was Qin Lu? Did he harbor ill intentions towards her, or was he simply intrigued by her?
Nan Yan’s eyes darkened slightly. She looked at the pages for a while and then lowered her gaze. Afterward, she closed those pages and calmly proceeded to search for what she intended to find.
At 8 PM, Nan Yan got a little bored and didn’t want to continue staying in Qin Lu’s office. After shutting down the computer, she sent a message to Qin Lu, planning to go out for a casual stroll.
She’d been in the capital for quite some time and hadn’t had the chance to explore. Since she had some free time today, she thought it would be nice to experience the cultural heritage of the capital.
Qin Lu quickly responded, “Heading home? I’ll have Wu Yue come to pick you up.”
Nan Yan: “No, I want to wander around.”
Qin Lu insisted, “Let Wu Yue be your driver. Just tell him where you want to go.”
Nan Yan: “Alright.”
After the conversation, Nan Yan tidied up Qin Lu’s office desk to its original state, picked up her food box, and left the office.
Coincidentally, Wu Yue was closing the meeting room door and then striding toward her.
“Miss Nan, let me carry that for you! Let me carry it!”
Wu Yue was quite astute and hurried to take the food box from her hands. He smiled obsequiously, even more brilliantly than when he was in front of Qin Lu.
Nan Yan handed the food box to him and asked indifferently, “How long does my brother plan to keep the meeting going today?”
“Well, it will probably last until around eleven or twelve,” Wu Yue said as he tried his best to earn favor in front of Miss Nan. “During this period, Young Master has been in Jin city, so he has accumulated a lot of work. While he’s staying in the capital these days, he wants to resolve all of it. Usually, the company doesn’t work late like this; everyone goes home on time!”
“Miss Nan, you may not know, but our Young Master is very clean and pure. There isn’t a single woman around him. You can see that even in the office, his secretaries are all men, not a single woman!”
“Is he being gender-biased?”
“Absolutely not!”
Wu Yue felt a chill in his heart. If that label were to be placed on the Young Master, it would be an injustice.
“The Young Master… actually, it was due to some psychological issues in the past that prevented him from interacting with women.. It was only after you, Miss Nan, appeared that his symptoms disappeared!”
