"Boss Hou, I actually understand what's on your mind, I'm very clear on that," Guan Qing said, her eyes fixed on his face with a meaningful look.
There was a slight jump in Boss Hou's heart, but his facial expression didn't change much.
"Let's hear it then."
"You think my husband Zhiyuan and I are no longer of much use to you, right? That's why you want to climb the social ladder by getting to know people like Qin Jian," Guan Qing said with a sarcastic tone, looking down. "But you're wasting your time with that mindset. Not everyone falls for that. I don't think Qin Jian would want to deal with you, nor do I think he could offer you any help."
Boss Hou let out a quiet sigh of relief and his face was once again full of smiles: "Sister Guan, do you really think I'm that kind of person?"
"Aren't you?"
"On my honor!" Boss Hou patted his chest, "Sister, you tell me, haven't you and your husband had hard times these past two months? Have I, your brother Hou, abandoned you?"
