C27 Conduct an Engagement Ceremony
"Alright!" Viscount Qin opened his thin lips, and a single word came out from his lips.
A cold light flashed through his eyes as he proposed a condition. "Give me a satisfactory first draft in three days. Otherwise, I'll find other newspapers to replace you."
Three days?
Like a bomb exploding in her mind, Luo Xiaoxiao's mind went blank.
"Three days …"
"What's wrong? Can't you do it? " Before Luo Xiao Xiao could finish speaking, Young Noble Qin's ice-cold gaze had already landed on her body.
Ye Zichen smiled, while his eyes were filled with contempt that he couldn't hide.
Excited by his gaze, Luo Xiao swallowed back the words that had reached her lips.
So what if she admitted that she couldn't do it in three days? Would Young Lord Qin relax the conditions because of this?
No...
Impossible.
Back when they were husband and wife, Qin Shaowie had never given her a warm and gentle feeling, let alone this time.
His fingernails dug deep into his palm, and a sharp pain assaulted his heart.
"I will do my best to hand over a first draft that will satisfy Chairman Qin within three days." Slightly closing her eyes, her attitude was respectful but distant, "Chairman Qin, do you have any other instructions?"
Without waiting for Young Noble Qin to speak, Luo Xiao Xiao turned around and made a gesture of invitation: "If Chairman Qin doesn't have any other orders, why don't I send you out?"
After their reunion, this was the first time that Young Noble Qin had seen Luo Xiao Xiao act so respectful.
He didn't know why, but an indescribable feeling arose from the bottom of his heart.
"No need, I know where to go." After throwing down these cold words, Young Jue turned and walked away.
Watching his figure disappear at the door of the meeting room, Luo Xiao suddenly felt half of her strength drained from her body.
She held onto the handle of the chair and staggered onto the chair. Her fingers supported her throbbing temples as she exhaled a long breath.
Young Noble Qin was indeed the nemesis of her life.
It was like this five years ago, and five years later.
If it wasn't to investigate the truth of that year, she really wanted to stay away from this man. Old age and old age were not on good terms with each other. It was the best policy!
Luo Xiaoxiao put down all the other tasks in her hands in order to complete a first draft that would satisfy Young Noble Qin.
By the time she left the newspaper office with her laptop in her arms, Qi Zhen's car was already parked by the side of the road.
Seeing her figure, Qi Zhen took the initiative to walk up to her.
Naturally, he reached out to grab the laptop in her hand. Qi Zhen casually put his arm around her shoulder and said, "Let's go."
In such a large crowd, Luo Xiao was not used to such intimacy.
Gently twisting her body, she began to discreetly pull away from Qi Zhen.
Lowering her head, she used two voices that could only be heard and asked, "Why are you here?"
Recently, the frequency at which Qi Zhen appeared before her eyes was a little too high.
"I don't know which shameless rumour it was that I raised Little San outside." The corners of Qi Zhen's mouth twitched as he gritted his teeth and cursed, "My parents wanted to beat me up the moment they heard this news."
Sighing, Qi Zhengleng said in a calm voice, "I think it would be best if we were to pair up frequently during this period of time."
Otherwise, how could he wash away his grievances?
"Little San?" With a smirk, Luo Xiao laughed out loud.
Her glimmering eyes slowly swept across Qi Zhen's face. With a half-joking tone, she said, "As the saying goes, there is no wind and no waves. Qi Zhen, you can't be real …"
"What are you talking about?" Upon hearing this, Qi Zhen's face immediately darkened.
He stared at Luo Xiao Xiao, his deep eyes burning with rage: "In your heart, am I the kind of person who looks up to the times?"
Seeing that Qi Zhen had turned serious, Luo Xiao couldn't help but sigh.
"Qi Zhengleng." She pursed her lips, a trace of helplessness suddenly appearing in her voice. "You clearly know that we …"
"We what?" Jie Bai interrupted her. Qi Zhen sincerely said, "In short, everyone knows that you're my fiancee now. I won't and won't provoke those women who don't know their place."
Seeing Qi Zhen's serious expression, Luo Xiao was no longer willing to talk about this topic.
She quietly gave a sigh of relief and said, "I know. Let's go home. I'm afraid I'll be busy again tonight."
Upon hearing these words, Qi Zhen immediately frowned.
"Didn't you already finish writing the interview script for the Qin Group?" He gently shook the laptop in his hand and asked, "What's the matter this time? To actually let you break the rules and bring your work back home to finish."
"It's still the interview script of the Qin Group." Lightly lifting the corner of her lips, Luo Xiao Xiao helplessly shrugged her shoulders. "Young Noble Qin thinks that my script isn't profound enough and wants me to rewrite it."
When this matter was brought up, Luo Xiao Xiao felt an uncontrollable headache.
She slightly narrowed her eyes and rubbed her temples with her fingers. "This time, the time is very tight. He only gave me three days."
"Three days?"
Qi Zhen mumbled in a low voice as the frown between his eyebrows tightened.
Qi Jian forcefully clicked his tongue and said in a low voice: "Xiao Xiao, Young Noble Qin has been making things difficult for you lately."
"I know." She pursed her lips slightly. "However, this interview is of utmost importance to me. No matter how much trouble Young Noble Qin is in, I must complete it."
"Three days is so short. Are you confident?"
"I can only say that I will do my best."
It was not difficult to finish the interview in three days.
The only thing she was worried about was what would she do if Young Noble Qin continued to make things difficult for him?
Lightly shaking her chaotic head, Luo Xiao Xiao walked in front.
"Xiao Xiao." Qi Zhen suddenly called out to her.
"What's wrong?"
Clutching his lips lightly with his hand, Qi Zhen walked up.
Only when she finally stopped in front of him did he slowly open his mouth. "My parents hope that we can hold an engagement ceremony."
Previously, he had always announced to the outside world that Luo Xiao Xiao Xiao was his fiancee.
However, there was no formal ceremony between them.
It was probably because his parents had been provoked by the news that he had a mistress outside, so they couldn't wait to do some formalities to wash off the rumors outside, right?
Engagement?
Upon hearing these two words, Luo Xiao Xiao Xiao resisted a little: "There's no need to gather so many people, is there?"
The Qi family was not some nobody.
Once the engagement banquet was held, there would probably be a lot of people who would take notice of her.
