for Advance Chapter
The next morning, Qin Xinmei knocked on the door and woke me up before my cell phone alarm went off. I ran to see the clock and saw that it was only 7:30 in the morning. I was confused as to why she woke me up so early.
Qin Xinmei was standing at the door, wearing a white sportswear and a pair of white shoes on her jade feet. She had a curvy figure, her long hair was half tied up, and a bunch of hair was clipped at the back of her head. She had a cool and beautiful face, and her clear eyes were as charming as the sky after the rain, giving people a spotless feeling.
In my mind, Qin Xinmei is a completely cold beauty. In front of me, her white sportswear is wrapped around her body as soft as water.
"Are you still sleepy after going to bed so early? Hurry up and brush your teeth and go out for some exercise." Qin Xinmei saw that I looked lazy and sleepy, so she pulled my ear and told me to go for a run at the beach.
"Qin Xinmei, how do you know I went to bed early last night? Did you come to peek at me last night?" I looked at Qin Xinmei's cold face, and my heart felt hot. I couldn't help but go forward and hug her tender body. I put my hands around her slender waist, rubbed her smooth cheek lightly with my chin, and deeply sniffed the familiar lotus fragrance that came from her skin to her nose.
I remembered that I went to the beach to run with Qin Xinmei once before, but we didn't run again after that. There were fitness equipment on the third floor, but I didn't seem to have seen Qin Xinmei use them. I couldn't help but think that I didn't understand the world of rich people.
But having said that, Qin Xinmei's figure is first-rate, without a trace of excess fat, it is perfect.
"Why would I peek at you? What nonsense are you talking about? You're so old, but you still act like a child when you get up. Aren't you ashamed of yourself?" Qin Xinmei pinched my ear with her delicate hand, then pushed me away, pretending to look disgusted with her cold face.
I giggled, brushed my teeth, and went out for a run with Qin Xinmei. We returned to the villa about half an hour later, then went into the kitchen to cook porridge while I washed the vegetables. The breakfast was simple, just like usual, millet porridge and pickles, with two plates of vegetables.
As far as I can remember, Qin Xinmei mainly ate light food, mostly vegetables and fruits, apparently to maintain her figure.
After Qin Xinmei and I finished making breakfast, Chen Siting woke up and came down from upstairs wearing a light blue nightgown and a pair of cartoon slippers that revealed her pink toes.
"Sister, you got up so early today. The sun is exploding." I looked at Chen Siting in surprise. I usually don't get up until 9 o'clock. Today is the first time that the Korean beauty girl got up so early.
"Get ready to practice boxing, henghenghaxi, use the nunchakus quickly, henghenghaxi, the benevolent are invincible." Chen Siting ran to my side, dancing her hands and feet wildly like a shaman, with her fluffy long hair swinging like a little lunatic, which stunned me.
"Sister, are you praying for rain or for wealth?" I was a little slow to react and asked blankly, looking at the beautiful girl who seemed like a lunatic. She was fine yesterday, but after a night, she seemed to be stimulated and was like a different person in the morning.
"Siting, you are so naughty so early in the morning, do you want to be beaten?" Qin Xinmei stared at Chen Siting with a cold face, frowned her beautiful and long eyebrows, and spoke in a cold tone.
I looked at Qin Xinmei. She rarely got angry, but the anger on her face didn't seem to be fake. It seemed that she was very dissatisfied with the Korean version of the beautiful girl's shaman dance just now.
"Hehe, Mom, my brother and I were just joking." Chen Siting stuck out her pink tongue, then glanced at me, kicked my calf without warning, and trotted into the bathroom.
"Hiss." I took a breath, put down my chopsticks and covered my burning calf with one hand. The Korean beauty girl's attack was getting heavier and heavier. Was it because I didn't go to her room last night that she was doing this to take revenge on me?
Qin Xinmei looked at me quietly with clear eyes, as if she wanted to see something from me, but she quickly looked away and lowered her head to eat breakfast.
After breakfast, Qin Xinmei went upstairs and changed into a uniform. The upper body was a black suit, and the lower body was a pair of straight dark gray trousers. Her buttocks were round and well-proportioned under her slender waist. Her jade feet were wearing a pair of 5 cm high black high heels. The trouser legs just covered her white bare feet. Her two slender legs were straight and graceful, and the high heels revealed a piece of tender white instep.
It was the first time I saw Qin Xinmei wearing this kind of suit, and I was a little dazed for a moment. Her dressing style today was different from the past. It was completely the style of an urban beauty. She had a well-proportioned and tall figure, and her long hair was half-tied up. Every part of her body seemed to be round and natural, especially her cold, beautiful and delicate face. At first glance, her president's temperament was fully displayed.
"You're stupid. Let's go." Qin Xinmei was standing at the shoe rack at the entrance. Seeing that I looked like I had lost my soul, she looked calm under her cold face, as if she was not surprised by my expression.
"Thumps, thumps, thumps." Qin Xinmei was carrying a small blue handbag, her high heels making an alluring sound as she walked towards the garage with her long, beautiful legs.
I came to my senses and looked at Qin Xinmei's tall back. I felt like I was bewitched and had no resistance at all. I suppressed my restless heart and walked to the garage. Since I drove Na Lanxi's car home yesterday, I still drove her car to the company today, so I had to return it to her.
Qin Xinmei drove the Lamborghini, and I followed behind in Na Lanxi's car.
When Qin Xinmei and I arrived at the company and just entered the office, we saw Nalan Xi's secretary Jiang Ning coming over with a report saying that there was not much material left for the main underwear model "Yemei" and production could only last for three days. If they couldn't get cotton material from Qi Qianli Company, the factory would stop production and the delivery date on the contract was almost up.
Qin Xinmei took the report and looked at it, then put it on the table, glanced at Jiang Ning, and said calmly, "You go down first."
"Qin Xinmei, didn't Nalan Xi come today?" I asked, looking at Qin Xinmei. Jiang Ning was Nalan Xi's secretary, but he brought the report up to Qin Xinmei.
"Don't call her Nalan Xi in the company from now on. She is the vice president of the company and your boss. You should call her Vice President Nalan, not her name. Call her Aunt Nalan in private." Qin Xinmei frowned and looked up at me. "Vice President Nalan is not feeling well today. She will take a day off."
When I called Nalan Xi's name, from Qin Xinmei's tone, it seemed that she was very reluctant and could only respond with a "hmm".
Qin Xinmei also told me last time that I could call Nalan Xi "Auntie Nalan" in private, but Nalan Xi is not very old, and she is not married yet. It would definitely be inappropriate to call Nalan Xi "Auntie". Did Qin Xinmei deliberately want me to call her that?
However, I soon stopped dwelling on this issue and felt a little confused. Could it be that I made Nalan Xi unable to walk last night, so I took a day off today? I was thinking about whether I should go to her house to see her later.
"I went to Qi Qianli with Vice President Nalan yesterday and listened to their conversation. What do you think?" Qin Xinmei leaned back in the chair at her desk, turned her head and looked at me and asked, but when she saw that I was really distracted, she frowned her long and narrow eyebrows.
"As long as Qi Qianli Company holds tight on the price of cotton materials, it will be very difficult to deal with." I sat next to Qin Xinmei, holding my chin, quietly looking at her perfect white profile.
"The key point is, have you figured out something?" Qin Xinmei ignored me and stared at her quietly, as if she was used to it. She opened the report sent by Jiang Ning and stared at it without blinking.
"Li Mu has a crush on President Nalan, so he tries every means to lower the price of our cotton materials, using this dirty trick to achieve his goal of pursuing her." I looked at Qin Xinmei and blinked, remembering yesterday at Qi Qianli Company, when I saw Li Mu looking at Nalan Xi's back with his eyes full of possessiveness.
And the look that Chen Zhao from the purchasing department gave Nalan Xi was naked. Logically speaking, if there was something wrong with Chen Zhao, he would have teamed up with Li Mu to dig a hole for people to fall into.
If this is the case, Shen Zhao should know that Li Mu likes Nalan Xi, then why does the former have desires for Nalan Xi, but now there is no evidence that Qi Qianli raised the price of cotton materials and whether Shen Zhao was involved, everything is just speculation.
"Chen Qing, is this all you can see?" Qin Xinmei's cold face looked calm. She then pushed the report to me and said calmly, "Take a look at this report."
I opened the report and read it carefully, and soon realized the seriousness of the matter. The company was short of cotton materials for underwear, and the factory was facing production suspension in three days. One batch of goods was to be delivered to the customer in seven days. If the products were not delivered on time, the penalty for breach of contract would be as high as one million.
"Come on, tell me what you think." Qin Xinmei stood up from her chair and walked to the coffee room alone. She took the cups and coffee beans from the shelf, washed them, skillfully put the coffee beans into a hand grinder, ground the coffee beans into powder, put them in the cup and separated them with a small colander, then boiled water and started making coffee.
When Qin Xinmei asked me what I thought of this report, I definitely didn't have much clue in my mind. Yesterday, Nalan Xi asked her classmate, detective Zhou Li, to investigate Li Mu. It certainly couldn't be investigated so quickly at the moment, so we still have to wait for the result.
I walked to Qin Xinmei and saw her two slender white hands skillfully making coffee and filtering out the fine residue with a strainer. Steam was coming out of the stainless steel cup and the air was filled with the rich aroma of coffee.
"Qin Xinmei, why don't you acquire Qi Qianli Company? This way, you can save trouble. In the future, you can just supply the cotton materials directly to me, 'Lander', right?" I joked. With Qin Xinmei's strength, she could definitely buy Qi Qianli Company easily.
Qin Xinmei made two cups of coffee and handed me one. She was slightly startled when she heard what I said, then a smile appeared on her face. She took a sip of coffee and said seriously, "There is no need to acquire Qi Qianli. Besides, if we acquire other companies just to get a bargain, our peers will laugh at us. Besides, I, Qin Xinmei, always convince people with reason."
"Nalan Xi asked someone to check on Li Mu. We can only wait for news." I said helplessly. Qin Xinmei looked calm, as if she didn't care at all about the price of cotton material being stuck and the imminent delivery time.
Qin Xinmei glanced at me, then walked to the desk with her coffee. I followed her out of the coffee room and sat next to her. Then, a delicate hand pulled my ear. I looked at the face in front of me that suddenly looked a little angry, and felt a little confused.
After Qin Xinmei pulled my ears for a while, I saw her sitting in the recliner, her perfect profile as white as jade, without saying a word. I felt a little confused, wondering if I had said something wrong.
"Chen Qing, you can't just wait for everything. Didn't you suspect that there was something wrong with the people in our company before? Go and check it out when you get off work." Qin Xinmei looked at me and said softly. Her delicate face became as soft as water. She stretched out a jade hand and gently touched my head.
I couldn't help but be stunned. Yes, I did suspect that there was something wrong with the manager of the underwear purchasing department of "Lander" and Jiang Ning, the secretary beside Nalan Xi, but I never had the idea of investigating these two people myself. After Qin Xinmei's reminder, I suddenly understood.
Just now, Qin Xinmei pulled my ear and asked me what I thought about the report. Her main purpose was to get me to investigate Chen Zhao and Jiang Ning. But when Qin Xinmei saw that I didn't have this idea, she suddenly got angry and pulled my ear. Then I agreed.
Qin Xinmei's cold face paused and asked me to go visit Nalan Xi and see how she was doing. I nodded. I had the idea of going to see Nalan Xi not long ago.
I wanted to stay with Qin Xinmei for a while, but it was busy time now, so I had to suddenly kiss Qin Xinmei's soft lips before anyone from the company brought up the documents. Her face changed color, and then she calmed down when she realized no one had entered the office.
"Little bastard, don't disturb me at work. Go visit Vice President Nalan and then come back to the company as soon as possible." Qin Xinmei glared at me and kicked me out of the office.
