Chapter 358 First Kiss?

There's a certain etiquette to the sound made when kissing.

This indicates that the person being kissed is very excited and emotional, and at the same time, they have strong feelings for the person being kissed.

But Liang Can was self-aware enough to think that Qi Mingyue probably didn't have any positive feelings towards him.

However, there's a saying that goes something like this.

'I can patiently listen to your painful experiences with your family of origin, but you should know what I'm going to do after you're done, right?'

Hehe ~
Inside the office, Liang Can looked up at Qi Mingyue, his face showing no unusual emotion.

Logically speaking, being suddenly kissed should make one feel surprised, shy, or excited.

But Liang Can wouldn't.

Because he gets kissed so frequently, he's become somewhat desensitized.

In contrast, Qi Mingyue's fair face was flushed with the same blush. Not only her face, but also her neck turned red instantly, and goosebumps appeared on her skin.

It seems that his heart was already in turmoil.

The straightforward and proud girl was breathing rapidly, and seemed on the verge of tears.

This left Liang Can speechless. "Damn it, did I force you to kiss me?"
Looking at Qi Mingyue, Liang Can remained silent for a moment before asking, "Your first kiss?"

Qi Mingyue jolted and instinctively retorted, "No!"

Liang Can: "So you've had relationships before? That's great."

Qi Mingyue had never been in a relationship, but she didn't want Liang Can to look down on her, so she chose to neither admit nor deny it, using silence as her answer.

What she just did could be said to have exceeded the limits of what Qi Mingyue could do.

She already had many negative opinions about Liang Can, but she never expected that she would take the initiative to kiss him one day.

This world is absurd!

But Qi Mingyue has no regrets.

“I’ve already kissed you, so even if Lili comes to you, don’t make any excessive demands on her.” Qi Mingyue stared at Liang Can, with a sense of desolation after losing her virginity. “I hope you can keep our promise.”

Liang Can was puzzled. When did Laozi (the author) promise to keep this promise?

You've been the one doing all the talking!
Thinking of this, Liang Can raised an eyebrow. He suddenly found Qi Mingyue, this little tsundere, to be quite interesting.

She wasn't that annoying, and Liang Can even discovered her hidden traits.

So, Liang Can stared at Qi Mingyue and asked in a deep voice, "Have you ever thought about how I'll be able to date after you kissed me like this?"

Qi Mingyue: "?"

Almost subconsciously, Qi Mingyue blurted out, "What do you mean? You don't mean you want me to take responsibility, do you?"

Liang Can looked distressed, lowered his head, and angrily denounced, "Scumbag woman."

He looked exactly like a pitiful college student who had been played with and then cruelly abandoned.

Qi Mingyue: "."

Can-ge kept his head down so that Qi Mingyue wouldn't notice he was trying not to laugh.

Ah, that feels so good! I've finally experienced what it's like to be let down, and for some reason, I'm even a little excited.

But Qi Mingyue still didn't believe it. In her eyes, Liang Can was the kind of scumbag who played around with girls' feelings. How could he not be able to have a relationship just because he was kissed?

"Are you faking it?" Qi Mingyue asked in a deep voice.

"What makes you think I'm faking it?" Liang Can retorted.

Qi Mingyue expressed her opinion of Liang Can: "Because you don't give the impression of being the kind of person who is very loyal and cautious in relationships."

Liang Can trembled with rage, slamming his fist on the table and shouting, "Qi Mingyue, what gives you the right to define me?"

Qi Mingyue was speechless.

'Damn, this trick really works. No wonder so many women keep mentioning it.' Liang Can thought to himself.

However, on the other hand, Qi Mingyue is really good at judging people.

Meanwhile, Qi Mingyue was already completely confused by Liang Can, and the topic had been steered too far astray. She tried to bring the conversation back on track.

"Let's get back to the main point. If Lili secretly comes to you, can you not make things difficult for her? Can you grant me this request?" Qi Mingyue looked at Liang Can, her tone quite sincere.

Liang Can sat down again, crossed his legs, gently stroked his chin with one hand, and looked up at Qi Mingyue.

Qi Mingyue misunderstood Liang Can's meaning and asked, "What, do you want me to kneel down before you?"

"No, not at all. I'm a guy who respects women."

Liang Can will never make a girl kneel down in his life, except for a certain specific moment.

This is mainly due to the structure of the human body, not for the purpose of humiliation.

After a moment's thought, Liang Can sighed softly and said to Qi Mingyue, "I really didn't expect you to go to such lengths for Lili. To be honest, I have the utmost respect for your friendship."

Qi Mingyue thought that Liang Can had truly had a change of heart this time, and wholeheartedly agreed, saying, "A good friend doesn't necessarily need to have known each other for a long time. It's just like a couple. You fall in love at first sight, and after getting to know each other, you find that your values ​​match. Then, it's just a matter of slowly getting to know each other."

“Yes, absolutely right,” Liang Can agreed.

"So?" Qi Mingyue looked at Liang Can expectantly, eager for his promise.

Liang Can also looked at Qi Mingyue and smiled, "So I want to join you."

"What?" Qi Mingyue thought she had misheard.

“Such a wonderful friendship, let me join in too.” Liang Can’s tone was sincere, his eyes clear. “Actually, I’m very lonely inside, and I don’t usually have any close friends with whom I can confide in. So I especially envy your friendship with Lili, and I want to join in as well.”

"No way!" Qi Mingyue refused without even thinking.

Liang Can's face darkened: "Why not?"

Qi Mingyue: "Lili and I are best friends, and we're girls. How can you, a guy, join us?"

Liang Can: "Just stop treating me like a guy, okay?"

"Uncle Liang, your seniority is so high, it's really inappropriate."

"Sigh, they still don't treat their uncle like family."

"."

Seeing Qi Mingyue's speechless expression, Liang Can threw his head back and laughed again.

He stood up, and Qi Mingyue across from him took a step back warily, bumping directly into the bookshelf behind her.

Liang Can rolled her eyes slightly, walked to the coffee table, poured some hot water, and said, "Sit down."

Qi Mingyue shook her head: "No need, I can stand."

"Why?"

"You're dangerous, I need to stay away from you."

Liang Can laughed in exasperation: "Then I'll go kiss the raccoon dog."

Qi Mingyue ran over and sat down next to Liang Can.

Little guy, can't I cure you?

Liang Can poured Qi Mingyue a cup of hot tea and said to her, "Have a sip. It's top-quality Longjing tea. There's only a limited production throughout the year, and you won't be able to drink it again after the season ends."

"Thank you, Uncle Liang."

Before drinking tea, Qi Mingyue took out a tissue, and before doing so, she looked to Liang Can for his opinion.

That's unusual; they have good upbringing.

Liang Can originally thought that Qi Mingyue was going to take out a tissue to wipe the wet table. But this ordinary girl actually picked up the tissue and carefully wiped her rosy lips, and even turned her head away and gently spat a few times.

It looked like there was something dirty on their lips.

This is so unfair, Liang Can thought to himself.

But having fun is one thing, now is the time to get down to business.

Liang Can put down his teacup and asked Qi Mingyue, "You came to see me, probably to pave the way for President Qi, because he's unsure when I'll actually leave for the capital, right?"

Since the situation is already open about between the two parties, there's no need to hide anything anymore.

After wiping her mouth, Qi Mingyue gave Liang Can an apologetic smile and quickly reapplied her lip gloss before answering, "Yes, actually my dad really wants to invest in your short video platform project, but his investment style is very similar to Ali's. He wants to get involved in the management of specific matters. He was hesitant before because he was thinking that if we make an exception for you, he might negotiate terms with you for other investment projects as well."

"Solving this is incredibly simple," Liang Can waved his hand, indicating it was nothing to worry about.

Qi Mingyue looked at Liang Can and asked curiously, "How do you solve this? I'll go tell Dad."

Liang Can's face showed arrogance, but his tone was calm as he said, "Of all the projects your father invested in and the managers of, which one could achieve the same level of success as me at such a young age? Furthermore, I will be even more successful in the future and will bring your father enormous profits. Is that reason enough?"

Yes, Liang Can was right.

If Qi Shuping's other investments also want to compete for autonomy, then they need to see if they are truly qualified.

Do you have Liang Can's cool and stylish record in selecting frames?
No, I'm not showing off. Just sit down obediently!

Qi Mingyue pondered in silence for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "You're right."

"So the problem is solved, isn't it?" Liang Can smiled.

Qi Mingyue blinked, feeling that Liang Can's words seemed to have another layer of meaning.

Is it possible?
"Uncle Liang, do you mean that as long as Dad doesn't have management rights and his demands exceed your expectations, you won't make exorbitant demands from him, and you'll also give up contact with Shunwei Capital?"

She has a straightforward and slightly arrogant personality, which is a bit problematic, but she is genuinely intelligent.

Liang Can held up his teacup, sniffed it, and said with a smile, "This is the scope that your father and I need to discuss. You've done your best in your part."

Qi Mingyue thought to herself, "What did I do? Did I kiss you?"

That's not good, it's being forced into it.

Thinking of this, Qi Mingyue tentatively asked, "Since that's the case, then, Lili?"

"Sigh, how come you still don't understand, Qi Mingyue?"

Liang Can put down his teacup, sighed heavily, and said with great regret, "There are many prejudices about me from the outside world, but if I ask myself honestly, have I done anything immoral? Have I ever really played with anyone's feelings? Isn't it all just following the crowd? But it doesn't matter. My dad told me that it's lonely at the top. The higher you stand, the less outsiders will understand you, so I'm too lazy to explain."

"After all, the lives of geniuses are just fodder for conversation among ordinary people."

Qi Mingyue: "."

It didn't sound fake, mainly because Liang Can's expression really did look very forlorn.

It feels like I'm being misunderstood by the world, but I remain open and honest.

For a moment, Qi Mingyue even fell into self-doubt.

Could it be that I'm just too prejudiced against him?

Looking at Qi Mingyue, Liang Can continued, "So don't worry, even if you don't sacrifice yourself today, I won't do anything to Lili."

"Because," Liang Can patted his chest, "I have a conscience!"

It’s a wake-up call! It’s a wake-up call!
Qi Mingyue blinked: "Conscience?"

“Of course,” Liang Canyi said righteously. “When I first started my business, Lili’s older brother, who is also my counselor, gave me a lot of support. The office for Campus Diary was obtained for me by him through various efforts.”

"Furthermore, Lili's uncle, my mentor, Vice Principal Ye Hanyang, treats me like his own son. I can use his resources and connections at will."

"So think about it yourself, they have been incredibly kind to me. If I still have any improper thoughts about Lili, would I, Liang Can, still be human!"

Qi Mingyue was stunned. Yes, that makes sense.

No wonder Zhu Guangliang, that old fox, liked Liang Can so much and was willing to act as a go-between for him.

No wonder both Mr. Mas treated Liang Can with special regard.

There must be a reason.

"I'm sorry, Uncle Liang. I was too prejudiced against you before." Although Qi Mingyue didn't completely trust him, she had to say nice things since she needed his help.

Liang Can waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to apologize.

Ultimately, it's because we didn't make a good first impression on each other, but that's okay, we can work on it later.

Qi Mingyue pursed her lips and said softly, "Uncle Liang, I was too presumptuous just now. I shouldn't have kissed you."

"Then here's the problem."

Liang Can stared at Qi Mingyue and asked, "Was that your first kiss?"

This time, Qi Mingyue remained silent for a long time, her hands on her knees tightly gripping the hem of her skirt.

After a long pause, she nodded slightly.

After receiving the correct answer, Liang Can sighed deeply and said with great heartache, "You child, how could you give me your precious first kiss in the heat of the moment? What am I supposed to do now?"

"So be it, I already have countless infamy, one more won't matter."

Qi Mingyue looked up and said seriously, "I won't tell anyone."

That's good.

Liang Can looked at Qi Mingyue: "Then let me tell you the truth, I won't do anything to Lili."

This was Qi Mingyue's ultimate purpose in coming to see Liang Can today.

She slowly stood up and bowed to Liang Can: "Thank you, Liang Can. Let's get along normally from now on. I won't be sarcastic towards you anymore. And please, don't be so hostile towards me."

“I know I have personality problems, and you get annoyed just seeing me. I will try my best to stay away from you from now on.”

That won't do. The past is the past. Now I'm interested in you.

But that's alright, let's hold back for now.

"It's not as serious as you make it out to be," Liang Can said with a smile. "If everything goes well tomorrow, I'll definitely have a casual meal with your father. He'll probably invite you to join us. See you then."

"Okay, then maybe see you tomorrow."

Qi Mingyue is gone.

Liang Can sat alone in his office, thinking that this straightforward and arrogant girl was worth exploring.

Just as I was about to get up, the screen of my phone on the table lit up.

It's a raccoon dog.

Lili: [Brother Liang Can, I heard you've been dealing with Mingyue's father lately. I'd like to say a good word for her, is that alright?]

It happened so suddenly, but I've already promised Qi Mingyue that I won't lay a finger on Lili.

But what does what Liang Can promised ten minutes ago have to do with Liang Can ten minutes later?
Liang Can replied: "Let's not talk about this anymore, I'm very angry right now."

The raccoon on the other side was immediately excited when it saw this.

Liang Can's brother has a very bad temper!

Lili: [Brother Liang Can, where are you? I'll come right away and put in a good word for Mingyue.]

Liang Can: [Why did you have to come find me at this time?]

Tanuki: [Because this is what I should do as Mingyue's good friend!]
