127: Chapter 127 Jiang Yingxue became a wingman

"Qin Ge, try this orange, it's very sweet."

Jiang Yingxue sat beside Qin Ge and held a peeled, clean orange slice to his lips.

She acted as if no one else was there.

She didn't care at all that Lin Wanrou was still standing right beside them.

Qin Ge took the orange slice and fed it to Lin Guoguo instead.

"So sweet!"

Lin Guoguo's large, watery eyes sparkled as she gazed at Qin Ge.

She kicked her short legs, hopped off the sofa, walked over to Lin Wanrou, tugged at her modified qipao, and said in a sweet, soft voice, "Mommy, can you be with this uncle? Guoguo wants a daddy~"

Gulp!

Lin Wanrou's fair neck moved slightly as she swallowed hard.

She looked at Jiang Yingxue and said awkwardly, "President Jiang, please don't take a child's words to heart."

It's over!

Lin Wanrou lamented in her heart.

Jiang Yingxue never intended to give this order to the Lin Group in the first place.

Now, Guoguo was trying to get her to steal Qin Ge right in front of Jiang Yingxue.

Wasn't this intentionally making things difficult for Jiang Yingxue?

Given Jiang Yingxue's current attitude toward Qin Ge, she strongly suspected that Jiang Yingxue was chasing after him.

At any moment, she might be kicked out of the company!

Jiang Yingxue glanced at Qin Ge, who was staring at Lin Wanrou. While she felt jealous, she dared not show it at all.

Instead, she calmly explained to Lin Wanrou, "Miss Lin, you may have misunderstood. President Qin and I are just very good friends, not the kind of relationship you are thinking of."

Lin Wanrou parted her lips slightly but didn't speak.

She could see it with her own eyes.

Jiang Yingxue was practically throwing herself onto Qin Ge right in front of her.

She was even diligently serving tea and peeling fruit for him.

Not the kind of relationship she thought?

Qin Ge couldn't help but interject while the two women were talking, "Do you two have some business to discuss?"

Jiang Yingxue nodded and replied, "Our company recently has a batch of women's clothing orders that Miss Lin wants to take on, but the Lin Group isn't very competitive compared to the other bidders."

Lin Wanrou helplessly loosened her clenched little fists, but still pleaded persistently, "President Jiang, our Lin Group will never let you down."

For the past few years, she had been busy taking care of Guoguo.

She had gradually drifted away from the group's business.

And it was precisely because she had drifted away from the core of the Family that she and her daughter had become targets of criticism.

They had become the "bloodsuckers" and "dead weight" in the mouths of the others in the Family.

The Old Master had spoken.

If she couldn't bring benefits to the Family, everything she currently had would be taken back.

By then, even renting a place to live for her and Guoguo would be a luxury!

Qin Ge waved at Lin Guoguo. When the little girl came to his side, he picked her up and looked at Jiang Yingxue, "I think Miss Lin is quite competitive."

"Besides, your Jiang Xue Group can send a specialist to supervise the Lin Group's processing."

"And since you're doing one order, you might as well do two. The Lin Group is well-versed in processing, so other orders could be handed to Miss Lin as well."

Jiang Yingxue hesitated for a moment, "This..."

Lin Wanrou stood by, her heart in her throat.

She knew Jiang Yingxue was weighing the options.

She didn't dare to interrupt.

She was afraid of displeasing Jiang Yingxue.

"I don't have the contract ready either," Jiang Yingxue said, lifting her gaze to look at Lin Wanrou. "Miss Lin, how about this: I will transfer the advance payment for this order to the Lin Group's account, and we can complete the contract later, how about that?"

"As for the subsequent orders, for now, there are only two that haven't been put up for bidding yet."

"I'll give those two to you as well, Miss Lin."

Hearing this, Lin Wanrou clenched her little fists in excitement, feeling as if she were dreaming.

She almost wanted to ask Jiang Yingxue if she was joking.

She thought Jiang Yingxue was weighing whether or not to agree to Qin Ge's suggestion.

Who would have thought that Jiang Yingxue wasn't weighing whether to agree at all, but was considering how many more orders she could hand over to her?

This single order alone was worth eighty million.

With two more, wouldn't that mean the total order amount would exceed one hundred million, or even several hundred million?

"Thank you, President Jiang!"

Lin Wanrou bowed, her chest heaving, her voice trembling with excitement as she stuttered.

Jiang Yingxue shook her head, "You should be grateful to Qin Ge. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have given this order to your Lin Group."

Lin Wanrou looked at Qin Ge, who was holding her daughter, bit her lip, and said gratefully, "Thank you, President Qin."

Jiang Yingxue chuckled from the side, "Is that just a verbal thank you?"

"The total amount of these three orders exceeds three hundred million. You alone could get millions in commissions, not to mention the benefits for the Lin Family."

"And you can't even bear to treat President Qin to a meal?"

Lin Wanrou nodded earnestly and invited them with indescribable joy, "President Jiang, President Qin, are you free tonight? May I treat you to a meal at Cuiyun Pavilion?"

Jiang Yingxue stood up and shook her head, "I'm not free tonight, and since you should be grateful to President Qin, I won't be a third wheel."

After saying that, Jiang Yingxue walked away, swaying her slender waist. Her heart felt sour, but she was helpless.

Who told her not to cherish him before?

Now, Qin Ge had changed from a devoted lover into a playboy.

Besides cooperating, did she have any other choice?

Once Qin Ge was annoyed and refused to pay attention to her anymore...

The thought of those dark, sleepless, helpless days made Jiang Yingxue shudder with lingering fear. She was terrified to the extreme and never wanted to experience that again!

"Daddy, come home and eat with Guoguo? Eating out is very expensive, and mommy's cooking is delicious." Lin Guoguo hugged Qin Ge's arm and blinked, "How about Guoguo washes daddy's feet when we get home?"

Qin Ge nodded with a smile, "Alright."

Lin Wanrou said awkwardly, "President Qin, please don't take a child's words to heart. Let's just go to Cuiyun Pavilion; their signature dishes are all delicious."

...

Leaving the Jiang Xue Group, Lin Wanrou drove her BMW Mini, which she had owned for several years, carrying Qin Ge and Lin Guoguo toward Cuiyun Pavilion.

At a table by the window in the restaurant, Lin Wanrou didn't care about saving money anymore and ordered all the signature dishes.

"Too much." Guoguo, who was sitting in Qin Ge's lap, said anxiously, "Mommy ordered too much! Our Family can't finish it!"

Lin Wanrou lowered her beautiful eyes, narrowed them, and stared at Lin Guoguo, frowning, "Guoguo, be good. Don't bother President Qin. Come to mommy's arms."

"Oh~"

Lin Guoguo was reluctant to leave Qin Ge's warm embrace.

Unlike mommy's embrace, daddy's chest was hard. Although it wasn't soft, it was very warm.

Just as Lin Guoguo sat beside Lin Wanrou, a young man in the restaurant, shirtless but wearing a suit jacket, walked over with a swagger.

Upon seeing the man, Lin Wanrou's expression changed instantly.

Lin Guoguo was so scared that she grabbed Lin Wanrou's arm tightly, pressing her whole body against her.

Qin Ge turned his head and glanced at him indifferently.

Lin Hu, swaggering and with the words already on his tongue, was about to blurt out, "Lin Wanrou, where did you fish up this rebound guy? You even have money to eat at Cuiyun Pavilion now, huh?"

But the moment he caught sight of Qin Ge's face, Lin Hu was struck like lightning and quickly swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

His swagger turned into fawning flattery. Lin Hu stepped forward with a fawning expression, "President Qin, why are you eating with a woman like Lin Wanrou?"

"You probably don't know, but this Lin Guoguo is actually Lin Wanrou's daughter. No one even knows whose seed she is to this day."

"A cheap woman like Lin Wanrou has no telling how many wild men outside. President Qin, you must not be deceived."
