The phone rang several times before being quickly answered, "Hello, Xiao Chuan!"
Teacher Yang's voice, as always, carried a cool gentleness that seemed to melt every cell in one's body.
"Xiao Mo, you handled the matter with Taihong Lightweight Steel Manufacturing Plant, didn't you?" Qin Chuan asked directly.
Yang Zimo was silent for a moment on the other end, finally admitting, "That's right, it was me!"
"That factory director surnamed Yue, he came to apologize to you, didn't he?"
Qin Chuan hummed, "I knew it had to be you. Only you would be so good to me!"
"This morning, after my subordinates found me, they said that the person surnamed Yue voluntarily requested to pay triple the liquidated damages. I was completely baffled!"
"I personally called the person surnamed Yue, and only then did I learn the whole story from him. I guessed it was you, and only you have the energy and means to do this."
"Heh heh!" Yang Zimo chuckled heartily after Qin Chuan finished speaking.
"So, are you moved?"
"Hmph, since that Taihong Lightweight Steel Manufacturing Plant dared to cut off your product supply, I'll let them experience what it's like to have their supply cut off."
"My man, only I have the right to bully him. How dare any random nobody dare to bully him!"
Qin Chuan laughed heartily, "That's a powerful statement. I didn't expect my Teacher Yang to be a protective wife. Being protected like this really gives a unique feeling."
This statement was absolutely true. In his two lives, Qin Chuan had never experienced the feeling of being protected by his girlfriend before. It truly gave him a unique sense of fulfillment.
"By the way, did you have Lu Xiaoshu help you with this?" Qin Chuan suddenly asked again.
"Mm-hmm, Lu Xiaoshu is fully capable, so I let him do it!" Teacher Yang replied.
"It seems I owe Lu Xiaoshu another favor. How about this, when my product output is abundant in about a month, I'll take the initiative to provide a batch of electronic storage cabinets to Taigang Group." Qin Chuan said.
"You decide on this matter," Teacher Yang said gently.
After a few more words with Teacher Yang, Qin Chuan hung up the phone. As he turned around, he saw Ye Meiyun standing outside his office desk, looking at him with a strange expression.
Qin Chuan's heart skipped two beats in an instant.
Damn it, he was too impatient earlier and forgot that Ye Meiyun was nearby. He directly pulled out his phone to call Teacher Yang.
Recalling the intimate and playful tone of his conversation with Teacher Yang just now, Qin Chuan felt a chill run down his spine despite the summer heat, and a large patch of cold sweat broke out on his back.
This was truly a case of the hunter becoming the hunted. He, who was usually so cautious in his actions, had made such a fatal, low-level mistake.
But since the mistake had been made, he had to find a way to rectify it quickly...
"Ahem, Sister Yun, I've clarified just now. It was a friend of mine who helped me handle this matter," Qin Chuan said, feigning composure.
Ye Meiyun's expression had already returned to normal. She nodded and asked, "Then how should we deal with that Factory Director Yue?"
"People who make mistakes must pay the price. It's not our turn to beg him now; he's the one begging us! And I believe there will be no further cooperation between us in the future..." Qin Chuan sneered.
Ye Meiyun nodded as if understanding and then turned to leave.
Seeing Ye Meiyun reach the doorway, Qin Chuan showed a hint of struggle before finally calling out, "Sister Yun!"
Ye Meiyun stopped and turned back, looking at Qin Chuan quietly.
"Uh... about the phone call just now, I hope you can keep it a secret!" Qin Chuan said, as he believed that Ye Meiyun, being so intelligent, must have suspected something, and standing so close, she might have even overheard Teacher Yang's words.
Ye Meiyun stared directly at Qin Chuan, her gaze making him feel very uneasy. Finally, she left the office without a word.
After Ye Meiyun left, Qin Chuan slumped onto his office chair.
If he had only suspected before, then based on the look in Ye Meiyun's eyes just now, he was 100% sure that Ye Meiyun had definitely heard all the conversation.
For a moment, Qin Chuan's emotions fluctuated intensely. He had a feeling that as more people learned about his scummy nature of juggling two women, the day Li Ya learned the truth would not be far off!
Alas...
Thinking about the consequences of Li Ya learning the truth, Qin Chuan felt a nameless fear.
He had tried his best, concealed it for so long, precisely because he feared that day.
But now, it seemed that day was getting closer and closer...
Qin Chuan felt lost and uneasy for a time.
However, this feeling only lasted for a few minutes. Soon, Qin Chuan became energetic again, as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
"No, I need to make money, a lot of money!"
"When a person has a lot of money, some worldly things can actually be overcome!"
Qin Chuan didn't know where he had read this sentence, but he re-energized himself and returned to work.
But after a few minutes, he found that he couldn't concentrate at all. Annoyed, he casually threw down the pen in his hand and took out his phone to call Li Ya.
Learning that she was currently working at the clothing factory, he invited her to have lunch together.
At noon, Qin Chuan saw Li Ya arrive in her car. Looking at Qin Chuan walking with a wobbly gait like a baby, Li Ya couldn't help but tease, "People usually get older as they live longer, but you're going backwards, like a baby learning to walk!"
Qin Chuan stared at Li Ya's prominent chest and retorted, "Mom, then I want milk!"
This remark made the teasing Li Ya blush immediately, her face turning red as she scolded, "Pervert!"
Qin Chuan burst into laughter, and the two of them then drove away from the electronics factory together.
Little did they know, this scene had already been captured by a shadow standing in an office.
Watching Qin Chuan and Li Ya laughing and joking as they left, Ye Meiyun's expression was complex. She was truly conflicted at this moment.
Her mind involuntarily recalled the shocking and extraordinary phone conversation she had accidentally overheard in Qin Chuan's office earlier. Ye Meiyun never expected that her 'brother,' whom she had always considered perfect, was actually a scumbag.
Juggling two women, not content with having a beautiful girlfriend like Li Ya, he was also involved with other women outside, and they seemed to be very influential.
"Men are truly all the same!" Ye Meiyun suddenly cursed loudly.
In the Audi car, Qin Chuan, who was chatting with Li Ya, sneezed.
Li Ya asked caringly, "What's wrong? Did I set the air conditioning too low?"
"It's nothing, what should we eat?"
"Hmm... let's go to that noodle place. I haven't had noodles in a long time!" Li Ya said after thinking for a moment.
"Okay!" Qin Chuan agreed. As they were talking, the phone suddenly rang. Qin Chuan took out his phone and saw it was his mother.
"Mom!" As soon as he answered the phone, Jiang Cuihua's scolding came crashing down.
"You scoundrel, you still know you have a mother!"
"I'm asking you, you're clearly in the county town, why haven't you come to see your dad and me for so long? Do you even have us in your heart anymore?"
"You only know how to make money, money, money every day. Can money ever be completely earned?"
Qin Chuan was speechless under the reprimand. Since his injury, he had indeed not visited his parents for a long time. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but he didn't want his parents to know about his injury.
It seemed his mother and father were quite resentful towards him now.
"I order you to get your butt over here for lunch today, and bring Li Ya along, you hear me?" Jiang Cuihua finished speaking and hung up the phone.
Qin Chuan turned to look at Li Ya, who was driving, and then at his own feet. After thinking for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go to my parents' place for lunch. You heard that just now, my mother is furious!"
