Chapter 902: Chapter 902: The Plotted Love Story⦠Chapter 902: Chapter 902: The Plotted Love Story⦠âRidiculous!â Ye Shiqing skimmed through a few items and summed up these so-called gossip entertainment news in four words.
He and Wen Beibei had no romantic feelings whatsoever, yet he didnât know who took those photos â it was simply absurd!
âThereâs no smoke without fire, probably someone thinks Brother Two and Wen Beibei are quite a match. A handsome man and a beautiful woman together are always pleasing to the eye. Moreover, since Brother Two doesnât have a girlfriend, is young and successful, and is the face of Taicheng, it would be a waste not to spin some romantic tales about him,â Ye Qilan had his own opinion, âHowever, Brother Two should remember in politics, beauty and power are linked, which makes it easy to associate them with power and seduction.â
Ye Shiqing was a smart man; he surely knew what to do next.
âI actually think this time gossip news is quite interesting. It captures the publicâs attention by releasing a little fresh scandal daily. It grabs everyoneâs attention without being vulgar. If it were me, Iâd love to watch it too. Itâs like watching a beautiful love story unfold, wanting to see the outcome after seeing the beginning. If I were the scriptwriter, Iâd love to write such a beautiful fairy tale,â Su Hongxing said with a faint smile, taking over the conversation.
How could Ye Shiqing not hear the underlying message in Su Hongxingâs words?
From what Su Hongxing said, could it be that someone was scheming behind this?
He subconsciously looked towards Qiao Qiao, who was engrossed in eating.
He frowned, âXiaoqiao, what do you think?â
Qiao Qiao looked at Ye Shiqing, her eyes full of confusion, âI donât have any thoughts on it, I think itâs quite good. Brother Two is also not getting any younger. If thereâs someone he sees eye to eye with, itâd be good to settle down sooner.â
âAre you implying that Iâm old?â Ye Shiqingâs expression darkened a bit.
Qiao Qiao quickly shook her head, âNot at all, Brother Two is very young, not old at all.â
Ye Shiqing was just seizing the opportunity to bring this up. After all, rumors were flying everywhere, yet Qiao Qiao didnât seem to react at all. Didnât this woman care about him in the slightest?
âStarting tomorrow, youâre working in my office!â Ye Shiqing shifted the conversation abruptly and decided Qiao Qiaoâs fate with a single sentence.
Qiao Qiao furrowed her brows, âBut, um, my alcohol tolerance is just so-so, I canât handle much.â
Wasnât it a bit cruel to let a woman block drinks for him?
After that, Ye Shiqing ignored Qiao Qiao and talked about current political issues with Ye Qilan.
The topics that the two men discussed didnât interest Su Hongxing and Qiao Qiao.
âWhat are you afraid of? Ye Shiqing wouldnât really have you block drinks for him. If he says he wonât drink, would anyone dare to force alcohol into his mouth?â Seeing Qiao Qiao still tangled up with the thought of blocking drinks, Su Hongxing comforted her.
âWhat does Brother Two need so many secretaries for anyway? And theyâre all female at that. Why not hire men to help him block drinks?â Qiao Qiao said dejectedly as she took a bite of her food.
Su Hongxing really wanted to crack open Qiao Qiaoâs stubborn head to see what was inside.
Ye Shiqing transferred Qiao Qiao to his office, wasnât it to keep her close at hand? She was only worried that Wen Beibei was also there, and Qiao Qiao might be at a disadvantage under Wen Beibei.
After dinner, Ye Qilan said he was going to the movies with Su Hongxing, which made Qiao Qiao feel like a giant third wheel.
âAlright, you two go on your date, Iâll take Xiaoqiao back to Qingmu Garden,â Ye Shiqing said, calling Qiao Qiao to follow him.
Qiao Qiao knew she couldnât escape this time and obediently got into Ye Shiqingâs car.
âBrother Two, I still feel that Iâm not suited for the secretary job, I just canât do itâ¦â
