Chapter 1987: Chapter 1981: Pagoda Candy
Qin Xue really had no intention of taking over Xiao Qi’s company, because that just wasn’t her plan, she just wanted to help Nangong Beiying get rid of some romantic entanglements.
"Sis-in-law, can’t you help me a bit more so I can take a break?" Xiao Qi didn’t expect Qin Xue to react so strongly, it’s not like his company is a monster flood, is it really necessary to be this afraid?
What Xiao Qi didn’t know was that Qin Xue just wanted to be a couch potato, she had lots of ideas, but she didn’t want to personally manage anything, so you could say Qin Xue is arguably the laziest person in the world.
"I said it before, I’ll only help you with the romantic entanglements, I won’t manage your company, you have to figure it out yourself, once things are done, you come back and take over." Qin Xue definitely didn’t want to deal with this mess.
"Alright then, other people can’t even get a company, and here I am offering it to you, but you don’t want it." Xiao Qi knew how families and large clans often have this kind of competition, all sorts of things are common, but when it came to his situation, not only couldn’t he give it away, but it’s also treated like a hot potato.
"Others are others, I’m me. When have you seen me not being able to start my own company?" Qin Xue retorted at Xiao Qi.
"Um, alright." Xiao Qi never saw Qin Xue lacking anything, she always lived so freely, and he’s been to her house many times without ever seeing her lacking anything. Of course, with so many businesses doing well, it would be strange if she was lacking.
"So it’s settled then, tomorrow you’ll go to work as usual, but I’m going to directly come to your office, get angry, fire you, then you come back dressing poorly, eating a bit worse, ideally selling off all your possessions." Qin Xue looked at Xiao Qi with a smile. Hmm, this idea isn’t bad.
"Sis-in-law, you don’t have to do that, right? Selling and buying again is not cost-effective, let’s leave that part out." The items in Xiao Qi’s house were all things he spent a fortune on finding, selling them wasn’t an option.
"I’m just saying ideally, I’m not actually making you sell everything. To be honest, I haven’t even seen who the other person is? What do they look like? If the other person isn’t after your money, and simply after you as a person, then the plan might need to change." Qin Xue mused, thinking from a typical woman’s perspective, there are always exceptions. So better to meet the person first.
"Alright, then we’ll see how it goes when the time comes." Xiao Qi thought Qin Xue made sense, nodded and said.
"Okay, so it’s settled, does anyone have any good ideas or suggestions?" Qin Xue glanced at the people sitting together, everyone seemed to have nothing to say?
"Qin Xue, what if that person truly is interested in my brother as a person, what then?" An Hao expressed her opinion after hearing Qin Xue’s question.
"Cold salad, what else can be done." Qin Xue casually replied.
"Sis-in-law, you can’t be like this, you promised to help me." Xiao Qi protested, how could this happen.
"What do you want me to do, if they’re not bothered by your poverty and want to be with you regardless of your wealth, this problem is solely yours to solve. An Hao asked me what to do, how would I know? I’m not a worm in your belly, yuck, I’m definitely not a worm, that’s gross." Qin Xue spoke too quickly, comparing herself to a disgusting worm made her feel nauseous.
Why is that? It’s because when Qin Xue had a stomach ache as a child and went to the doctor, the doctor gave her pagoda candy. It tasted sweet at the time, but the next day was unbearable, the indescribable pain and suffering was deeply etched in her memory, so thinking about it now gave her goosebumps.
