"Yes," Qin Ning said softly, her cat-like eyes captivating.
When a haughty young lady becomes charming, she can make people blush and their hearts race, and even wealthy wives are no exception.
"...Please tell me yourself, what price do you think your youth, your melancholy, your loneliness, your sorrow... are worth?"
Like the whispers of a demon, it bewitches the heart.
Just as the wealthy woman left the reception room and the door closed, Qin Ning, still wearing her business smile, heard applause behind her. She turned around and saw Bai Weiran's figure on the sofa go from transparent to clear.
Bai Weiran was still clapping on the side, his face full of admiration.
"Qin Ning, you're such a smooth talker. You sold the painting for five times the original price without batting an eye."
Qin Ning rolled her eyes, a smug look on her face.
"That's because Brother Weiran is too honest."
“When you sell something, you always try to sell it according to the price. How can this thing have a price? The price is set by us, what business is it of theirs? If she is willing to pay more than my price, that is her own choice. I did not force her!”
Bai Weiran shook his head and chuckled.
Qin Ning becomes shrewd whenever money is involved.
"I'm going out for a while," he said, handing a key to Qin Ning.
"Press the button on this and you can go home."
"When you're done with your work and want to go back, take Anqin with you."
The space of the dark room can be fixed anywhere in this world, but if you go looking for it directly, it doesn't exist.
Therefore, Bai Weiran always brought Qin Ning and An Qin with him.
Qin Ning took the keys, looking puzzled. "Brother Weiran, where are you going?"
"...There are some things I need to look into, but it's not a big problem," Bai Weiran said, reaching out to rub Qin Ning's head.
"By the way, where's An Qin?"
He hadn't seen An Qin along the way.
Generally speaking, An Qin always followed Qin Ning around like a little follower.
Qin Ning shrugged. "She said she had something to do and needed to go out, just like you."
Bai Weiran found it strange.
Anqin never said anything like "I have my own things to do".
He felt something was off, but when he picked up his phone to take a look, there were no app alerts.
He felt relieved again.
I don't want to interfere with Anqin's freedom.
On the contrary, Qin Ning was relieved that An Qin was able to leave, saying she had something to do, and felt it was a good thing.
"I'm leaving."
With that sound, his figure vanished from the spot.
Qin Ning held the key and stood there stunned for a few seconds before she came to her senses.
"Ah! Brother Weiran, you idiot!!"
Why did he leave too?
He's gone, and Anqin isn't here either. Suddenly, she's all alone in the gallery?
The gallery is up and running, and everyone's stopped doing their work?
Wasn't she supposed to be monitoring Wei Ran and An Qin's boss? How did she suddenly become Wei Ran's tool and An Qin's chosen worker?!
Miss Qin was indignant and stomped her feet in anger.
Bai Weiran flipped over and flew 108,000 li away.
In fact, he could fly much farther than Sun Wukong.
He set off from the beach in the coastal city and headed out to sea.
The sea he flew over created two white waves due to the wind pressure underneath.
Suddenly he heard a cry, and looking down, he saw a small, bewildered dolphin chasing after him, having seen the two white waves created by the wind pressure.
But because they couldn't keep up with his speed, they chased after him.
Like a little duckling crying for milk, it chased after the duckling, quacking all the way.
He stopped, and the little dolphin circled around the area of water at his feet, calling to him all the way.
A lost baby dolphin?
Bai Weiran tilted his head to amplify his senses.
"………………!?"
He was surprised to find that the range of his senses had increased.
One circle after another, and another increase.
It wasn't that we didn't sense the school of dolphins; rather, as the sensing range expanded, we could clearly sense that the fish in the area were moving in an orderly fashion in one direction.
He opened his eyes and reached out to touch the little dolphin that had poked its head out.
...It was less an orderly advance and more like they were scrambling to escape something.
He stared at the direction in which the fish he sensed were fleeing, narrowed his eyes, and his figure vanished from the spot in an instant.
The little dolphin was enjoying being petted when suddenly the person disappeared.
Big Eyes looked disappointed and let out two howls at the air.
The next second, the young man returned and placed his hand on the dolphin's head again, and the little dolphin happily squinted its eyes.
"Since we've met by chance, let me give you a name. Today is Saturday, so you'll be called Saturday!"
These are the days that office workers love.
The little dolphin instantly went from being overjoyed to moving its head away from his hand.
"...?"
Why does this dolphin look so disdainful?
He thought the name sounded really nice.
These days, even dolphins look down on people.
Xx
In the open-air café, An Qin held a cup of iced coffee in her hand, sipping it, her gentle, tea-brown eyes devoid of any emotion.
She looked at the person in front of her, tilting her head slightly.
The young man sitting opposite her, wearing sunglasses and a baseball cap, with swollen marks on his face, was crying uncontrollably.
"I was just in a hurry."
"...Do you understand? An Qin, do you understand?"
"Because I see that you no longer depend on me, but on others."
"My heart is aching, like someone is cutting me with a knife, one cut at a time."
An Qin sipped her coffee, watching as the paper sleeve containing the straw on the table was gradually soaked by water droplets.
No matter what Cao Shuang was doing, she was momentarily lost in thought.
"That's why, in that state of intense anger, I did something to slander you."
Cao Shuang suddenly looked up, and two lines of clear tears slowly flowed down from behind his sunglasses.
An Qin was stunned by what she saw.
Cao Shuang reached out, wanting to reach over the table to grab An Qin, but An Qin suddenly became agile, kicking her foot and moving herself and her chair backward, the chair legs scraping against the floor tiles under the outdoor cafe, making a screeching sound.
This immediately drew the attention of the other people who were chatting.
The entire room fell silent for a moment.
Cao Shuang couldn't stand the stares of everyone around him. He gritted his teeth and sheepishly withdrew his hand.
The gallery incident triggered post-traumatic stress disorder in him.
Cao Shuang was originally a narcissist who most enjoyed being in the public eye.
Now he suddenly becomes timid and hesitant.
He couldn't help but grit his teeth and harbor resentment.
He originally wanted to meet at a less crowded place, but Anqin insisted on meeting here.
Outdoor cafe.
But no matter how I tried to call, Anqin's phone was always switched off.
Last night, however, a blank message suddenly appeared.
He was heartbroken and drowning his sorrows in alcohol when, through his drunken haze, he picked up the item and, startled, immediately slapped it back.
Anqin on the other end stammered that she had dialed the wrong number.
Cao Shuang: Ha, woman, you can make a mistake?
No, this wasn't a mistake; this is exactly the number Anqin wanted to call him.
Although he was furious that An Qin hadn't spoken up for him in front of that despicable couple, he really wanted to grab her and slap her a few times.
But he also knew that Anqin was weak-willed.
Even if you asked her to do something, she couldn't.
A personality that's hopeless and incapable of being helped.
But Anqin's unexpected blank message quickly boosted his confidence.
She just wanted to call him; even under the control of those two, An Qin still cared about him.
