Qin Xue was already feeling embarrassed, but then the silly and sweet An Hao said something like this. Her face turned even redder.

“What? Do you have a problem with that?” A cold voice asked.

“No, no, how could I have a problem? Molin, if you like to hug her, then hug more, haha.”

An Hao was scared and quickly denied any objection. She was afraid that Molin might get angry with her.

“An’an, come let Li Zhao hug you.” Li Zhao embraced An Hao and sat down on the sofa with her.

Xiao Qi glanced at them, the corners of his mouth twitching. Was this bullying him for being single?

“Hey, hey, can you guys be mindful of your behavior? There’s a single man here, do you really want to torture me like this?” Xiao Qi stared resentfully at the four of them, who were having too much fun tormenting him.

“Qin Xue, I never thought that you’d be my boss’s wife.

Last time we met, you didn’t say a single word about it, not even mentioning your name so we could have put two and two together.” Xiao Qi had spent over two weeks with Qin Xue helping to renovate her store and she never let it slip.

“Haha, well, that was unexpected for me too. If I had known that you guys were close friends and brothers, I would have asked you for a discount last time, I really missed out.”

Qin Xue laughed about missing out, but her smile didn’t show any signs of regret, while the others just laughed at the two of them.

“Sorry about that, I didn’t know you were the sister-in-law. Otherwise, I would have done the renovation for free. If you need any more work done in the future, I’ll do it for free, what do you say?”

Xiao Qi thought to himself that Chu Molin also had a share in this, so even if it were free, it would be Chu Molin’s part.

Upon hearing this, Chu Molin raised an eyebrow. He’d heard this renovation topic several times today.

His little wife had so many secrets, and another one was discovered today.

“No need for that, a discount will suffice. There’s no need to offer it for free.’ Qin Xue didn’t dare to let someone offer her store renovation for free, regardless of the size.

In the future, the renovation cost would be at least US$ 100,000, and they were doing it as a business.

Qin Xue wouldn’t let someone run a losing business just for her.

“Sister-in-law, you don’t need to be so polite. My boss has a share in my company as well. Even if I offered it to you for free, it would be mostly his share, so there’s no need to be polite.” Xiao Qi sold Chu Molin out.

“Oh, you have a share too? I thought you guys aren’t allowed to run a business? How come you have a share in it?” Qin Xue turned to Chu Molin and asked.

Chu Molin thought for a moment, “Hmm, we just can’t work in the business directly. When our third brother came back from abroad and was asked to join the military, he refused because he wanted to run a business. Our family didn’t agree.

They said if he didn’t go, they’d cut him off financially. He still refused to go and wanted to do business but lacked funds, so the three of us formed a partnership.

Li Zhao and I provided money without doing any work, while Xiao Qi worked without providing any money and got the largest share. Because of my job, no one here knows that I have a share in his company.

At that time, we only had enough money to start a workshop. The third brother had only about ten people working with him, but over the years, he’s built it into a company.

The dividends I received have always been with the third brother, so when you have time, just ask him to transfer the money and shares to you.” Initially, Chu Molin had invested with the third brother simply because he needed support. But he also needed a backup plan since he left his family and didn’t plan to go back, he had to prepare for the future.

Back then, he thought it was simple – he’d eventually get married and have kids, so he’d have to provide for them.

He wasn’t the kind of old-fashioned person who can’t adapt.

As an official, he wasn’t allowed to run a business, which is why he invested money without getting personally involved and was just a silent partner collecting dividends.

Now, it appears that his decision was correct..
