Chapter 88: 088 My Fiancee_1
"Even the fastest mental counselor will take two hours to arrive?" Lin Xiangwan asked with a frown.
"Yeah, even that’s the fastest. It’s my cousin’s aunt, but it’s going to take time for her to rush over!" Lin Xiangwan’s assistant also said with exasperation and helplessness.
"Then ask her to come as quickly as possible!" Lin Xiangwan had no other options right now other than to urge her.
"Yes, I’ll press her on that!"
"Did the police find the person who released the snakes?" Lin Xiangwan asked again.
"The police have retrieved the surveillance video, but they still haven’t caught anyone!"
"Can this person turn invisible? How is it possible that they can’t be found?" Lin Xiangwan asked in disbelief.
The assistant didn’t know how to respond. "They might have done this deliberately, must have been very careful, maybe they tampered with the video!"
"The cameras are high up, how can someone just tamper with them?" Lin Xiangwan was convinced they could catch the person, it was just a matter of time. "Also, have the snakes been caught?"
"Uh...We’re still catching them. Mainly, the guest from room 1209 said they saw five snakes, we’ve only caught two so far, there are still three!"
"Hard to find?" The mere mention of snakes caused Lin Xiangwan’s skin to crawl with goosebumps.
"Yes, we’ve only found two, we don’t know where the other three have gone! The room is so big...it’s insane..."
Lin Xiangwan said seriously. "Even if it’s insane, we have to find them!"
"Yes!"
"Also, the CEO can’t know about this!" Lin Xiangwan once again specified, not feeling reassured.
"Yes, we will absolutely keep this a secret!"
"Hum!"
With that, she hung up the phone.
Turning around, Lin Xiangwan saw Qin Muchuan staring intently at her. With a cold gulp of air, she was startled, her eyes widened in surprise. "CEO Qin..."
Damn, why was he standing there not saying anything, giving her a scare.
A corner of Qin Muchuan’s mouth lifted in a smile. "You seem to know quite well how to keep secrets, and you play your role quite skillfully. No wonder such a serious incident occurred in my room, and yet Song Yichen, the CEO, hasn’t come to apologize to me!"
Being caught red-handed was undoubtedly embarrassing. "CEO Qin, so now you know it’s not that he didn’t come, but that I deliberately concealed it, please be merciful and forgive me!"
"It doesn’t matter whether he apologizes or not!" Qin Muchuan said indifferently.
He had invited some business friends over today to discuss some matters, otherwise, he would have already left this hotel.
"Thank you!" Lin Xiangwan said, exceptionally grateful.
Actually, she hated him in her heart now. If it wasn’t for him inviting people from their company to discuss a cocktail party for next week, she and Song Yichen wouldn’t be in this mess.
It was all his fault that such a mess had been created, but he acted as if he was the generous one, making people hate him even more.
Plus she had to thank him, which made it even more unfair.
But what could she do? She had to treat him with respect, how frustrating it was!
"You’re welcome!"
Lin Xiangwan thought for a moment, then asked. "CEO Qin, did you just see that there were 5 snakes in room 1209?"
"Yes!"
"Then have you noticed where they came from? From the window?"
"Room 1209, if I remember correctly, is on the tenth floor or so!" Qin Muchuan implied that it was highly unlikely.
Lin Xiangwan disliked his insinuating manner of speaking, always treating others like idiots. "So they came in from the door?"
"I didn’t see how they got in so I can’t really say!"
She blinked, then said. "Then why don’t you rest here for a bit, I’ll be right back!"
"No!" Qin Muchuan refused outright.
"Alright, I think CEO Qin doesn’t need me then, does he?"
"I’m expecting a business friend later, I’ll be needing room service!" Qin Muchuan stated bluntly.
"We have professional room service staff!"
"Your manager isn’t very professional, so what hope can I have for your staff?" Qin Muchuan asked sternly.
"As you mentioned, I’m a manager, not a room service attendant!" she argued.
"So you should perform even better!" Qin Muchuan, not giving her a chance to refuse, ordered. "Brew five cups of coffee for me, four lattes, one black coffee!"
"Yes!" Lin Xiangwan said gritting her teeth.
Just as the coffee pot had heated up on her side, someone rang the doorbell.
Qin Muchuan sat unmoved on the leather couch, playing with his iPad, and surprisingly commanded her to. "Go open the door!"
Lin Xiangwan, busy and without even having the time to wipe her hands, had to hurry to open the door.
Outside the door, there stood two men and two women. The men were probably in their forties or fifties, of the women, one was a middle-aged woman while the other was a pretty young girl, around eighteen or nineteen years old.
Her blonde hair fell straight down her back under a colorful dress, giving her a pure look, like a fairy.
"Hello, come on in!"
In her white dress, with straight hair draped over her shoulders...she was both generous and beautiful, a sight one couldn’t ignore, especially men, especially wealthy men, who looked directly at her.
Lin Xiangwan responded with a polite, slight smile.
Only then did Qin Muchuan stroll over. He draped his arm around her waist very naturally, like he had done it thousands of times before. He even pulled her into his chest and kissed her cheek. "My fiancée, Lin Xiangwan. Xiangwan, this is Mr. Li, the president of ’XX Bank’, and this is Mr. Chen, the chairman of ’Power Energy’. These two are..."
Qin Muchuan paused not knowing how to introduce them.
Chairman Chen quickly interjected. "These two are Li’s wife and daughter!"
Lin Xiangwan, feeling extremely uncomfortable, tried to wriggle her body. What was this person up to? Who was his fiancée? Why was he being so intimate with her?
However, his hand on her waist was very domineering, giving her a distinct sense of his demands.
Lin Xiangwan could only force a smile, temporarily taking on the role of a hostess. "Hello, President Li, Chairman Chen, Mrs. Li, Miss Li, please come inside!" noveldrama
Once "fiancée" was mentioned, Mrs. Li and Miss Li’s expressions changed dramatically, showing their embarrassment and anger, but in spite of it all, they gritted their teeth and entered!
The aroma of cocoa soon filled the room, making it very comfortable.
Chairman Chen broke the awkward silence. "Are you brewing coffee? It smells so good!"
Qin Muchuan, now seated on the couch, smiled, turned his face towards Lin Xiangwan, and said to everyone. "My fiancée’s coffee-brewing skill is top-notch..."
"Haha, really? Then we are in for a treat!" President Li laughed heartily.
"Not at all, my coffee-brewing skill is just average!" The center of everyone’s attention, Lin Xiangwan, smoothed over her hair in embarrassment, modestly said.
Qin Muchuan whispered to her in a manner that was both intimate and respectful. "My love, is the coffee ready? Shouldn’t you bring it out for everyone to taste?"
What do you think?
