These past few days, Qin Xuan and Tantai Yue have been inseparable.
Aside from bathroom breaks, Qin Xuan even stood by her side during meetings.
Tantai Yue was quite happy about this, as their relationship had rapidly heated up since that night.
In reality, it wasn't that Qin Xuan wanted to be clingy, but rather he feared someone might harm her again.
However, the employees at Tantai Yue's company couldn't help but gossip.
At the entrance of Tantai Yue's company, Qin Xuan said to her,
"Tantai, I won't be coming in today. I have some things to attend to. I'll pick you up tonight."
Tantai Yue had grown accustomed to having a fool by her side during work these past few days. Now that he was gone, she felt a little bit of loss.
But the gentle and virtuous Tantai Yue still smiled and said,
"Be careful. And come back early tonight... early."
Qin Xuan's heart warmed. He stepped forward, hugged Tantai Yue, and smiled,
"Okay, I know."
Seeing their intimate actions, a few receptionists in the company lobby shook their heads and sighed.
"Sigh, our chairperson is something else. She has such a large company and is so beautiful, why would she find such a useless man who does nothing all day but linger around her?"
Another receptionist glanced at Qin Xuan and said disdainfully,
"Who knows? I heard someone from the finance department yesterday say that this man is a live-in son-in-law, who married into the chairperson's family."
"Ah! Married in!" The female receptionist looked down on Qin Xuan even more.
"I really don't know what the chairperson is thinking. He looks so ordinary. What does she see in him?"
"Maybe he's good in bed, hahaha..."
"Shh, keep your voice down, are you afraid the chairperson won't hear you!"
Their voices were very low, and Tantai Yue naturally didn't hear them, but Qin Xuan heard every single word.
However, Qin Xuan didn't take it to heart.
After all, he had heard countless such remarks, even worse, during the past three years.
After parting ways with Tantai Yue, Qin Xuan took a taxi to the Qixiang Clubhouse.
He had left the Ferrari at Tantai Yue's company.
Qin Xuan had offended quite a few people now, and driving that car was too ostentatious.
After getting out of the car, Qin Xuan arrived at the entrance of the Qixiang Clubhouse.
The two women in qipao at the entrance were the same ones from before.
Upon seeing Qin Xuan arrive, the two women's faces immediately showed a respectful expression.
"Mr. Qin, you're here."
Qin Xuan nodded and asked,
"Is Miss Ren inside?"
"Yes, she is."
"Good, I'll go in then." With that, he walked straight inside.
After Qin Xuan left, the two women immediately changed their demeanor.
"What's with the attitude? Hmph, a stinking live-in son-in-law. If it weren't for Miss Tantai Yue and the Second Miss, we wouldn't even let him in."
"Exactly. He's wearing such tattered clothes and has the nerve to go out. He's truly embarrassing Miss Tantai Yue."
Even though he had walked quite a distance, Qin Xuan could still hear them. He looked at his attire and couldn't help but smile wryly,
"It does seem quite old."
Qin Xuan was still wearing the clothes he had on when he came from Jingcheng to Jiangbei three years ago. He had been reluctant to discard them.
But now, how many people could recognize these clothes?
As Tantai Yue's company gained more fame, more people began to investigate her.
And Qin Xuan's past as a live-in son-in-law three years ago was dug up by countless people. Qin Xuan's infamous reputation was now known throughout Jiangbei City.
Arriving at Ren Qixiang's office, Qin Xuan knocked on the door. There was no response from inside.
Qin Xuan knocked again, but there was still no movement. Qin Xuan frowned slightly, then gently pushed the door open.
The scene inside almost made Qin Xuan's eyeballs pop out.
Ren Qixiang was wearing a bandeau outfit and a pair of pink rabbit-shaped headphones. With her back to Qin Xuan, she was doing a set of aerobics.
Every time Ren Qixiang's fair, jade-like feet landed, Qin Xuan's heart skipped a beat.
Unlike Tantai Yue's figure, Ren Qixiang looked a little plump, or rather, curvaceous.
However, her waist had no trace of fat. One could say that Ren Qixiang's plumpness was all in the right places.
Perhaps due to her long-term practice of aerobics, Ren Qixiang appeared even more charming and alluring.
After finishing her aerobics, Ren Qixiang took off her headphones, picked up her water cup from the desk, and took a sip of water, completely unaware of the extra person in the room.
After drinking her water, Ren Qixiang actually started to undress.
The sole bandeau she was wearing was removed.
It was wet from the aerobics, so she needed to change.
She casually tossed it onto the sofa, then walked to the wardrobe, opened it, and found it filled with lingerie.
All colors, all styles, were present.
There were normal ones and sexy ones.
Ren Qixiang picked out a bright red one.
Then, she took out a qipao dress with a blue and white floral pattern and put it on.
After changing, Ren Qixiang finally turned around. When she saw Qin Xuan at the door, she was stunned!
"You... were you here the whole time?"
Qin Xuan quickly snapped back to reality, gave an embarrassed smile, and stammered,
"Well... um, I just... just arrived, yes, just arrived."
Even Qin Xuan didn't believe what he said.
Ren Qixiang had been changing clothes for several minutes.
And if she had opened the door, wouldn't she have known?
So, she must have been here earlier.
Besides, Ren Qixiang had been wearing headphones the whole time, and the wardrobe and sofa were on the other side of the door.
The intelligent Ren Qixiang immediately guessed what had happened, and her face turned crimson with embarrassment.
This meant that he had seen her doing aerobics and changing clothes!
"You scoundrel, why didn't you knock when you came in? You must have done it on purpose! Did you see everything!" Ren Qixiang said, both ashamed and angry.
In fact, Ren Qixiang was misjudging Qin Xuan.
Since she was mostly facing away from him, he had only seen her back. Honestly, he hadn't seen much else.
"Miss Ren, you're wronging me. I really didn't see anything."
Ren Qixiang didn't believe him. She had taken off all her clothes while changing, and if he didn't see anything, he must be blind!
"You are the only one who has seen my body, so..." Ren Qixiang stared at Qin Xuan coldly and said,
"I have to kill you!"
With that, she flicked her delicate foot, and a katana flew out from under the sofa.
Ren Qixiang drew the katana and slashed directly at Qin Xuan.
This startled Qin Xuan greatly.
Did this woman know martial arts?
Ren Qixiang aimed a slash at Qin Xuan's throat.
Just when the tip of the sword was less than a centimeter from Qin Xuan's throat, he deftly dodged it.
Qin Xuan broke out in a cold sweat.
Was this woman so ruthless?
Her first move was aimed at his throat.
If it had been an ordinary person, they would probably be dead by now.
