C50 Throw out the Bait

It was her first day at work and she had already created such a ridiculous incident that made people not know whether to laugh or cry. Jing Xiao Can's mood fell drastically.

Shao Ying Ning saw that she was depressed the entire morning. After work at noon, she dragged Jing Xiao Can to a newly opened French restaurant to treat her to a western meal.

In the dining room, Shao Ying Ning looked at her with concern and asked tentatively, "Little Can, what is the relationship between you and Mo Yi Qing?"

Jing Xiao Can held a knife and fork and calmly cut the steak. Hearing that, she lifted her eyes to look at Shao Ying Ning who loved gossiping and smiled, "He is a cousin of a distant relative of mine."

Pffft...

Shao Ying Ning just drank a mouthful of tea and directly spat it on the ground, "Cough, cough, cough... Holy sh * t, it's actually your cousin!"

This answer was really too explosive. Shao Ying Ning covered her chest and coughed for a long time before she recovered her breath.

"Since it's your cousin, why don't you go to work at his company? Maybe I'll reward you with a director position. It's better than being bullied by Tang Jin." Shao Ying Ning's eyes were burning with envy.

Jing Xiao Can looked away and put a piece of steak in her mouth. She chewed slowly and tasted it. "Don't make fun of me. At my level, I can only make a living with Master Tang. Besides, our relationship isn't that close. "

"If I wanted to save face, I would suffer. If it were me, I would have squeezed into his company even if I had to give up this face." Shao Ying Ning curled her lips in pity and picked up the knife and fork to eat.

"How is your mother recently?" Seeing Jing Xiao Can's unhappy expression, Shao Ying Ning quickly changed the topic.

Picking up the cup and drinking a mouthful of water, Jing Xiao Can curled her lips bitterly, "Still alright. Her illness recovers slowly."

The two of them chatted idly. Shao Ying Ning's phone rang. Looking at the call, she casually picked it up.

"What?" Shao Ying Ning panicked and stood up, "Okay, okay, okay. I will go over immediately."

She cut off the phone and grabbed her bag. With an apologetic expression, she said, "Little Can, take your time to eat. Something happened to my friend. I have to make a trip there..."

As she spoke, Shao Ying Ning ran to the door with a panicked expression.

"Be careful on the way there!" Jing Xiao Can stood up and instructed.

"I know, I know." As soon as she finished speaking, Shao Ying Ning's figure had already disappeared outside the door.

Jing Xiao Can retracted her gaze and raised her wrist to look at the time. It was still early from work and she did not want to return to the company. Whenever she thought of the deadly task that Tang Jin gave her, she would have a headache.

Ask her to plead with Mo Yi Qing?

She had already begged in the car!

The hateful one was that man who kept changing his mind. After eating her tofu, he still did not buy her debt.

Sigh, if he was so easy to deal with, then she would not have been toyed with by him. She would not have been forced to do so until now!

Jing Xiao Can rested her elbow on the table and supported her chin with one hand. She stared at the steak on the plate with a sorrowful expression and poked it with a worried expression.

When she thought of Mo Yi Qing, she had no appetite at all.

At the table near the window of the restaurant, a graceful and elegant woman looked anxious. From time to time, she lowered her head to look at her phone. A moment later, the phone rang with a notification sound. She quickly slid open the screen and looked at the picture on the screen. Her eyes lit up and her peripheral vision coldly swept across Jing Xiao Can who was not far away.

The next second, the phone rang. She picked up the call without batting an eyelid, "Speak! How is the investigation result?"

The voice that came from the other end was respectful. "Mrs, the investigation has been done. The second day after Mo Yi Qing returned to the country, he secretly registered with a woman called Jing Xiao Can..."

"What? Recruitment?" Leng Qiu Hua was shocked. She suddenly straightened her back. In the next second, she realized that she had lost control of herself. She picked up the cup and drank a mouthful of water. "Continue! What is the background of that woman?"

"Jing Xiao Can's background is average. Her father went missing during the plane crash ten years ago. Her mother went into a mental hospital due to mental disorder. She is a small editor of Jia Ren Fashion Magazine."

"That's all?" A trace of disappointment flashed across Leng Qiu Hua's exquisite makeup face.

Closing the phone, Leng Qiu Hua crossed her arms before her chest and leaned against the back of the chair. Once again, she carefully sized up the slender figure of the woman not far away.

With just a glance, the corner of Leng Qiu Hua's lips faintly curled into a malicious smile.

The woman was wearing a white one-piece dress. Her long hair was draped over her shoulders and her skin was as smooth as cream. Her entire body exuded a fresh air like that of a small family's jade.

This kind of woman walking on the streets was simply too ordinary.

How could she enter Mo Yi Qing's eyes!?

Leng Qiu Hua could not suppress her curiosity, stood up, and walked towards Jing Xiao Can's position.

"Ouch!" There was an exclamation by her ear, pulling Jing Xiao Can's wandering mind back.

Calming herself down, she saw a middle-aged woman with exquisite clothing holding onto the dining table and slowly squatting down in pain. Jing Xiao Can was shocked and quickly stood up. Supporting her arm, she asked concernedly, "Auntie, you... What happened to you?"

"Aiyo, my leg cramps." Leng Qiu Hua took the opportunity to sit in the chair and with a painful expression, she rubbed her ankle.

"Ah?" Jing Xiao Can squatted beside her and quickly picked up her phone to make a call, "Auntie, bear with it for a while. I'll call an ambulance for you."

Leng Qiu Hua waved her hand to stop her. "No need. It's an old problem. Just rest for a while."

Hearing this, Jing Xiao Can secretly heaved a sigh of relief and asked worriedly, "Is it really alright?"

"I'm fine, I'm fine." Leng Qiu Hua's face was full of gratitude as she smiled at Jing Xiao Can and pointed at the seat opposite her, "Thank you. Take a seat."

"Okay." Hearing her say that it was fine, Jing Xiao Can originally wanted to leave. After all, she was a stranger. Furthermore, if it was as the news said, if she suddenly had another illness, it would be troublesome to rely on her.

After all, it was better to avoid trouble.

Thinking of the accident in the morning, she still had lingering fears.

However, looking at the amicable woman in front of her, she could not bear it.

Seeing her uneasiness, Leng Qiu Hua smiled with concern and asked, "What kind of work do you do?"

After asking, she carefully sized up Jing Xiao Can. The two of them sat facing each other and when Leng Qiu Hua looked closely, her heart inexplicably sank.

It could not be denied that although the dignified girl in front of her could not be considered to be devastatingly beautiful, however, that quiet and uncomfortable charming posture was very lovable. Especially her pure and untainted watery eyes. It was exactly the same as the woman in the depths of her memories.

Leng Qiu Hua's hand that was holding the phone turned white and trembled slightly.

"I work in a magazine." Jing Xiao Can smiled calmly.

"Magazine..." Leng Qiu Hua pretended to be thinking, "Then do you guys want to do that kind of full-cover advertisement?"

Jing Xiao Can's eyes lit up when she heard the advertisement. She quickly nodded. "Yes!"

If she could get a sponsor for the company or something, Tang Jin might not make things difficult for her.

"That's such a coincidence. My relative has just returned to the country. He wants to find a few influential magazines to promote his products. Which type of magazine are you guys from?" Leng Qiu Hua threw out the bait without batting an eyelid.

Jing Xiao Can excitedly took out the latest magazine from her bag and handed it over. "Auntie, take it back and take a look first. If you have any requests, you can contact me at any time."

"Okay, I'll take a look. Let's contact each other again." Worried that Jing Xiao Can would find a flaw, Leng Qiu Hua left her phone number and left in a hurry because she had something to do.

Jing Xiao Can looked at the contact number that Leng Qiu Hua left for her and impatiently stored it into her phone.
