Chapter 1oo: Qiaoqiao, Don’t Be Afraid of Me
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
This girl was indeed good-looking. She had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and her skin was fair and beautiful. She looked like she was older than Nan Qiao. Her golden hair was hot and wavy, casually hanging behind her head. It was fixed with a hair clip. In this antique market filled with small vendors, she was simply too dazzling.
She was the one who had mocked Nan Qiao for going overboard.
Nan Qiao only wanted to say, “Are you alright?”
What was wrong with her? What did her talking to the boss have to do with this woman?
Nan Qiao rolled her eyes and was seen by the other party.
Luo Wanbai was 1.73 meters tall. At this moment, she stood in front of Nan Qiao and stared down.
“You look young, but you’re quite vicious. How can you maliciously suppress others just because they urgently need money?”
What Luo Wanbai hated the most was people like Nan Qiao. She was so young, yet she didn’t have good intentions. It was precisely because there were too many such people in society that the atmosphere was so bad.
“Boss, I want this painting. How much is it?”
Moreover, looking at Nan Qiao, she didn’t look like someone who could fork out so much money.
She clearly looked like she couldn’t afford it and yet she still wanted to lower the price.
The stall owner rubbed his hands together, his eyes burning with passion. “This painting costs ten million yuan. It’s not negotiable. On account of you speaking up for me, I’ll give you another porcelain bowl for free.”
“Help me wrap it up.” Luo Wanbai had come early, but she had never found a suitable gift for Old Master Cheng.
And she happened to see that this painting was not bad.
It was her first time attending Old Master Cheng’s birthday banquet, so she had to leave a good impression.
Wu Daozi’s painting was indeed good. For Cheng Jie’s sake, she had to leave a deep impression on Old Master Cheng.
Nan Qiao sneered in her heart. This person was really stupid and rich.
Suddenly, she thought of something and revealed a playful smile.
“Wait, I’ll pay 11 million. I want this painting.”
Luo Wanbai did not expect this woman to dare to bid against her. “13 million.”
Nan Qiao sat leisurely in the chair and couldn’t help but cross her legs. She was just short of a foxtail in her mouth.
“Fifteen million.”
“I came to look at this painting first. Why should I give it to you? I really want this painting.”
Luo Wanbai searched the entire antique market but didn’t find anything special. Only this painting caught her eye.
Moreover, she heard that Old Master Cheng’s house had a lot of good things. Ordinary things would not be able to attract Old Master Cheng’s attention at all. She was determined to get this painting today!
“20 million”
Nan Qiao hesitated for a long time, her eyes glancing at the painting from time to time. There was a look of desire in her eyes, but in the end, she could only give up.
“You win.”
The two of them challenged each other and raised the price by 10 million for no reason. This made the stall owner overjoyed.
Afraid that Luo Wanbai would go back on her word, he quickly wrapped up her things and Luo Wanbai swiped her card to leave.
Before she left, she even glared at Nan Qiao arrogantly.
It was as if she was saying that Nan Qiao was just a loser.
The stall owner had made a killing today. He looked at the balance on his phone and smiled foolishly.
At this moment, Nan Qiao put down her crossed legs and nodded, indicating to the stall owner.
“Boss, I’ve already helped you so much and made you earn ten million yuan for no reason. Shouldn’t you reward me too?”
The stall owner was in a good mood. He thought about how this young lady had indeed contributed greatly to this matter.
“What do you want?”
“I want to buy this mud doll. Give me something else on top of it. I don’t need you to lose money. I’ll pick something from the pile beside it, okay?”
“Alright, 20,000 yuan for that clay doll. You can take the rest of the trash with you.” The stall owner waved his hand generously.
After this, he had to run away quickly. If that Missy came back later, it would be troublesome.
“Okay.” Nan Qiao smiled brightly and cleanly. She paid 20,000 yuan and left with the pile of “rubbish”.
Back in the car, Nan Qiao threw everything else aside. She just held the black horse-shaped thing and turned it over and over.
There was nothing strange about this thing. She did not know what it was and could not tell if it was good or bad. She only hoped that it would not become a joke when the time came.
It was just noon. Nan Qiao thought that she could still find Murong Chen for a meal, so she got someone to drive the car to the company.
Holding the black horse in her hand, she wanted to go upstairs and ask Murong Chen what it was.
After Nan Qiao returned to the company for the first time, all the employees in the company remembered that face. Naturally, they didn’t dare to stop her and let her in.
She took the President’s personal elevator upstairs.
When they reached the 28th floor, they felt that the atmosphere was a little strange as soon as they stepped out of the elevator. The entire floor was filled with a low pressure, and no one dared to say a word.
She knocked on the desk of the person next to her.
Secretary Jiang’s eyes lit up when he saw Nan Qiao. Just as he was about to stand up to welcome her, Nan Qiao gestured for him to keep quiet.
“What happened? Why does it feel like everyone is acting weird today?”
Secretary Jiang lowered his voice. “The proposal didn’t meet the requirements today. The President is furious. The director of the design department and the director of the planning department are still being reprimanded inside. This is already the fifth batch of people. The situation is quite tragic.”
Every time he entered the President’s office, he didn’t even dare to breathe loudly.
Nan Qiao: Does Big Brother normally act that exaggerated?
She went to the President’s office, but as soon as she reached the door, she heard a scolding voice coming from inside.
Murong Chen’s voice was still as pleasant as ever, but when he reprimanded others, it was as if there were ice shards mixed in. Not many people could stand it.
At this moment, Wang Tao came out and was about to report when he was stopped by Nan Qiao.
“Has my Big Brother always been so scary?”
Ever since Nan Qiao found Murong Chen, she had never seen him so fierce…
Wang Tao blinked and nodded.
That’s right. This was the President’s original appearance.
In front of Nan Qiao, he even suspected that the President had been possessed. It was simply too shocking.
Nan Qiao was now hesitating whether she should go in or not.
“Young Miss, are you here to look for the President?”
“Yes, I wanted to find Big Brother to eat with me…”
But there was only one word in Nan Qiao’s heart now.
Run!
“President, Eldest Miss is here to look for you.” Wang Tao directly sold her out and shouted.
Nan Qiao: (£)#$%*!
Nan Qiao, who had already turned around and took two steps, could only fake a smile and look back. She stuck her head around the door.
“Big Brother, you don’t seem to be free now. I’ll look for you for a meal next time.”
Before Nan Qiao could dodge, Murong Chen grabbed her collar and said in a serious tone, “I’m free.”
Nan Qiao: (OaO)
I want to kill Wang Tao.
* * *
The two of them stared at each other in the private room. Neither of them spoke first. Murong Chen pinched his slightly painful eyebrows. He must have scared his Little Sister just now.
Wang Tao should have informed him earlier.
“Qiaoqiao, don’t be afraid of me..”
