Chapter 336: Chapter 337: The Security Captain Comes to Work

”Um...it seems I am just overthinking it, how could she possibly like me.”

Qin Tian was left speechless upon hearing Lu Qing’s words and said, ”Her family has a deep background; let me tell you this, even in the entirety of Zhonghai City, there definitely wouldn’t be more than three men who could match up to her.”

”Didn’t you say you wanted to be a world dominator? Then you must be one of those three men, right?”

Pfft!

The moment Lu Qing’s words left her mouth, Qin Tian felt as if he had been stabbed. Damn, this divine stab, Qin Tian didn’t even know how to respond.

”Cough cough, I was just boasting back then, don’t believe it.”

Who knew Lu Qing would respond with a smile, ”Whether you believe it or not, I do believe that Fan Bing, that rich girl, must certainly have fallen for you.”

”Um... please, if she likes me, she likes me, but falling for me... that’s kind of scary...”

The two chattered and laughed as they left the Wang Chao Hotel, their loan issue resolved, and both were in high spirits.

...

The next day, at Murong Group’s headquarters, President Murong Fei’s office.

Although Qin Real Estate securing the Zhonghai Square project was a sure thing, facing this fact still made Murong Fei feel suffocated.

This Zhonghai Square project was something she was ambitiously determined to secure, but now, it had been snatched away by Qin Real Estate right from under her nose.

If it were just about a simple project, Murong Fei wouldn’t have cared much, but the key is that the Zhonghai Square project was tied to her plans to grow and strengthen Murong Group.

For this plan, she had held countless meetings, spent numerous nights awake, but unexpectedly, the very first step went wrong.

”President Fei, Qin Real Estate has snatched the Zhonghai Square project; this matter seems settled. Should we consider a different target for our first step into the real estate market of Jinshan District?”

Wang Yu looked at the anxious Murong Fei, feeling equally anxious.

Murong Fei’s plans had involved Wang Yu from the beginning.

In the Eastern District, Murong Group’s real estate business was already second to none, so this extensive plan Murong Fei had been working on for months was aimed at entering Jinshan District. After all, to be recognized as a true name brand enterprise in Zhonghai City, especially without owning several plots of land and landmark projects in Jinshan, the busiest area, was out of the question.

Over the past two years, among all the projects in Jinshan District, the Zhonghai Square project was undoubtedly the most influential, and although it wasn’t a residential real estate project per se, it garnered extra attention due to its association with the government and relevance to the people of Zhonghai.

Murong Fei’s original plan was to secure the Zhonghai Square project to challenge the influence of other real estate giants in Jinshan District and move out from the Eastern District.

Now it seemed the plan had gone down the drain.

”Sigh, what other projects are there, any suitable projects?”

Murong Fei had considered targeting other projects to break into Jinshan District, but none were suitable; some projects had no influence, and investing resources in them would merely waste manpower and materials. Even earning a little profit wouldn’t be enough to destabilize the established giants of the area, such as Huang Group.

So, after considering all options, Murong Fei could only shake her head.

”If only Qin Real Estate had been willing to cooperate with us from the start. It should have been a win-win project, but unfortunately...”

Wang Yu knew about the time Murong Fei had personally gone to negotiate a partnership with Qin Real Estate and Lu Qing, now reflecting on it with regret.

Murong Fei also felt regretful; initially, she had underestimated Lu Qing, which resulted in her losing face and being forced to give up on cooperating with Qin Real Estate.

”If only I had managed to properly talk it through with Lu Qing back then...”

The more Murong Fei thought about it, the more regret she felt. Her lips slightly pursed, she sat in her office chair, her gaze drifting out of the office window, she couldn’t help thinking, ”Could it be that Murong Group can only develop in the Eastern District?”

”Hey, you two beauties, what are you doing?”

Just when Murong Fei and Wang Yu both looked troubled, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and a familiar voice followed.

Without needing to hear the voice, Murong Fei knew who it was, In the Murong Group’s office building, the only person who would dare to enter her office without knocking, aside from Qin Tian, who else could it be?

”Captain Qin, hello.”

Seeing Qin Tian enter, Wang Yu greeted him warmly.

”Hehe, Secretary Wang, hello. Haven’t seen you in a few days, you’ve grown prettier.” Qin Tian said with a chuckle.

Wang Yu blushed and said, ”Captain Qin, can’t you change your line? You say that every time we meet.”

Qin Tian smirked, ”Sure, next time I’ll just say you’ve become even cuter, haha. Secretary Wang, could you make me a cup of fine Longjing tea, please?”

”Okay.” Wang Yu nodded and left.

”Don’t make him tea, doesn’t he know where he is? Someone really thinks too highly of himself.”

The moment Wang Yu walked out the door, Murong Fei suddenly spoke up with a cold face.

Wang Yu smiled knowingly, aware that Murong Fei was just being hard on the outside but soft on the inside, and obediently went to make the tea.

”I’m certainly not an old man. Am I that old?”

Qin Tian took a few steps to the office chair opposite Murong Fei’s desk and sat down, looking at her.

Murong Fei also looked at him. Their gazes at each other carried some playfulness.

Murong Fei noticed there was a look of pleasure in Qin Tian’s eyes, and she mouthed, ”You seem quite happy. What, did you abduct someone’s daughter again?”

”Hiss... Can’t you speak seriously? Am I that kind of person?”

”Yes.”

”Well, if I were to abduct anyone, it would be you first.”

”With you? No way!”

The two of them sat there, bantering back and forth.

Outside the office, someone knocked on the door wanting to come in. Qin Tian and Murong Fei almost simultaneously said, ”Busy now, come back in an hour!”

The person outside retreated obediently.

”Why are you free to come here today? Why don’t you go see your Lu Qing? She is now the president of Qin Real Estate and definitely fits the ’white, rich, and beautiful’ bill.”

As Murong Fei spoke, she flipped through her notebook, seemingly casually.

”Tsk tsk, President Fei, are you jealous?” laughed Qin Tian.

Seeing Murong Fei roll her eyes at him, Qin Tian lay back in the office chair, leisurely adding, ”I’m the captain of Murong Group’s security team; I came to work today.”

Qin Tian would probably have been better off not saying that, as it only irritated Murong Fei further. She said, ”You remember you’re the security team captain? It’s almost the end of the month, and you think showing up for one day is enough to earn your pay? Do you think you own Murong Group?”
