Chapter 176: Chapter 176: Lu Lingche’s Humiliation

Translator: 549690339 |

Qiao Yin was not a slow-witted woman. She had a clear understanding of what was going on.

Those people were manufacturing opportunities for her and Dongfang Mu.

She gave a light laugh but didn’t comment.

If she hadn’t met Lu Lingche, she might have paused to consider what Dongfang Mu was really thinking.

But after experiencing Lu Lingche, deeply hurt by him, her heart was closed. Therefore, she didn’t pay attention to Dongfang Mu’s thoughts and never considered having a relationship beyond work with him.

She maintained an appropriate distance from him and strolled leisurely along the foreign streets, feeling relaxed.

A little girl came up holding some flowers, speaking something in Finnish that Qiao Yin couldn’t understand.

Dongfang Mu didn’t understand either, but that didn’t matter.

He took out some money, bought a rose and handed it to Qiao Yin, asking with a smile, “Is one enough?”

Qiao Yin accepted the flower openly, “That’s enough, thank you, Young Master Mu.”

The little girl said thank you in English, and then happily left with the money, bouncing away.

After walking around for a little while longer, Dongfang Mu took her back to the hotel worrying that she might be tired.

However, he didn’t return to his own room. Instead, he went to Qiao Yin’s room.

He took out a card and handed it to Qiao Yin, “This is your bonus. It wasn’t appropriate to give it to you before in front of others, it was also not good to make it too obvious.”

“Now, I formally thank you, Miss Qiao, for helping the Eastern Empire Group win this big project from Siya. The corporation’s profit will increase by at least tens of billions in the future, and you deserve enormous credit.”

“I hope we could continue to collaborate in the future. If you’re willing, when I become the CEO of the corporation, you can be the Vice President, in charge of the security system’s operation.”

Qiao Yin took the card, her expression showing gratitude, “Thank you for recognizing my abilities, Young Master Mu. It’s my duty to work for you and the corporation. Becoming the Vice President of Eastern Empire Group would be a step up to heaven for me, but my abilities are not enough for such an important position. I will need more experience before I can respond to your offer.”

Dongfang Mu was a bit taken aback.

He had invited her personally to be the vice president of the corporation, and she had turned him down.

He smiled bitterly, looking at her stunningly beautiful face, again admiring her calm demeanor.

She showed appreciation for him, yet not being in a rush for instant success. She was very conscious, perhaps aware of his repressed feelings, but treated him as politely and respectfully as before.

He looked at her for a moment longer, then reminded her to rest early before leaving her room.

After closing her door, he turned around and nearly bumped into someone.

Just as he was about to frown, he looked up and saw it was Lu Lingche. He immediately put on a smile, “President Lu, what are you doing here? Your room doesn’t seem to be on this floor.”

Lu Lingche was indifferent, “Qiao Yin and I are still legally married. I am her legal husband, coming to find her is neither illegal nor immoral. On the contrary, Young Master Mu, you visiting my wife’s room in the middle of the night, shouldn’t you give me a reasonable explanation?”

Dongfang Mu’s smile deepened, “When did President Lu start caring so much about Miss Qiao? Need I remind you? Lan Yuyi is carrying your child. She is the one who needs your attention. Congratulations in advance on becoming a father!”

Lu Lingche felt a strong discomfort in his heart, with the grave mistake he had once made being brutally exposed, revealing his disgrace.

He had always thought that the incident with Lan Yuyi was just a mistake he couldn’t face his older brother about.

It wasn’t until today that he suddenly realized this incident had become his shame, making him unable to face the fact that Lan Yuyi was about to give birth to his child.

Being proud as he was, he never thought he would one day make such a mistake, allowing his opponent to seize his handle, disgust him, ridicule him.

“Qiao Yin is resting. It might be best not to disturb her, President Lu. Also, you already have Lan Yuyi, so let Qiao Yin go. Pretend you don’t know each other in the future, how about that?”

The discomfort in Lu Lingche’s heart was too strong. He wasn’t in the mood to talk anymore and gave up his plans to knock on the door.

He turned and entered the lift.

Dongfang Mu watched as he disappeared, then walked to his own room with a triumphant smile on his face.

Sometimes, being too proud isn’t a good thing..
