Chapter 437: Chapter 437: You are the Queen
Nan Qiao knew that Old Mrs. Yang had already left Jing City and shared this news with Li Yehan.
Li Yehan chuckled, “Looks like she’s realized how powerful you are and doesn’t dare ss with you anymore.”
Nan Qiao leaned against the sofa, “Do you think I’m a tigress?”
“I think you’re a queen,” Li Yehan gazed at her with his warm eyes.
Nan Qiao stood up, “I’m leaving. I can’t stay and keep you company while you work. I have an experint this afternoon, so you go ahead and get busy.”
Nan Qiao walked out, opened the door, and saw Li Ye talking to Secretary Zhao.
Li Ye said, “Let et Li Yehan. I have official business to discuss with her.”
Secretary Zhao replied, “Mr. Li is speaking with Mrs. Li right now. I suggest you wait before going in.”
Hearing the noise, Li Ye turned his head and saw Nan Qiao walking out of Li Yehan’s office.
Li Ye had no choice but to believe it—Li Yehan truly liked Nan Qiao. It wasn’t just a casual fling.
She’s beco Mrs. Li this quickly?
Nan Qiao walked a few steps forward and paused, “Secretary Zhao, I’ll head out now. You all carry on.”
Nan Qiao didn’t greet Li Ye, not even bothering with polite formalities.
Li Ye was very displeased; Nan Qiao outright refused to show him respect.
Li Ye’s emotions didn’t surface, but Secretary Zhao said to him, “You can go in now.”
Li Ye entered Li Yehan’s office. When they t once again, the dynamics stayed the sa—Li Yehan sat, while Li Ye stood.
“If it’s not important, don’t co to my office. If you have sothing, discuss it with Secretary Zhao. He can handle those trivial matters on my behalf.”
Li Ye: “…”
Li Yehan disdained him for dealing with minor matters?
Li Ye voiced his displeasure, “There’s no such thing as trivial matters in the company.”
Li Yehan raised his head and looked directly at Li Ye, “So, what is this major matter you’re talking about?”
Li Ye replied, “I conducted an investigation and concluded that people are willing to pay more for high-priced tech products. I believe my proposal is correct.”
Li Yehan curled his lips into a devilish smile, “I also have an investigation report here. People like buying expensive products because they believe it assures quality. From what I know, your expensive tech products don’t cost that much to produce, do they?”
Li Ye: “…”
Li Yehan seed to know quite a bit.
Li Yehan’s sharp eyes bore into Li Ye, his words chilling, “I am the decision-maker for the company, and you’re rely one of my subordinates. Li Ye, if there’s nothing else, go back to work. Stop interrupting while I’m busy.”
Li Ye, provoked and furious, stord out and returned to his office.
Leaning back in his chair, Li Ye exhaled softly, trying to calm himself.
Old Mr. Li held a significant portion of the company’s shares. Without his approval, Li Ye couldn’t beco the company’s CEO.
At that mont, Li Ye’s phone rang.
Seeing the number on the screen, Li Ye locked the door behind him before answering. A cold, female voice ca through the receiver, “I’m ready.”
“Good. Wait for my instructions,” Li Ye replied.
After hanging up, Li Ye’s mood improved a little, a calculated smile creeping onto his face.
…
Nan Qiao returned to school, and thanks to her exceptional grades and her first-place competition win, she was able to graduate two years early.
Not only that, Nan Qiao began lecturing for students at the dical College.
However, Nan Qiao’s lectures stirred discontent among so people.
Leading the charge was Li Xia.
Dong Qingqing arrived at the dical College Director’s office,
Inside the office were several teachers and the director.
Dong Qingqing voiced her dissatisfaction, “Although Nan Qiao was the national college entrance exam champion, she’s still just a student. How can she lecture us? Director, aren’t you being too biased toward Nan Qiao?”
Dong Qingqing’s complaint caught the attention of the teachers, and nurous eyes turned to her.
Feeling sowhat nervous, Dong Qingqing gritted her teeth, rembering the benefits Li Xia had promised her, and pressed on.
The director adjusted his glasses, “Dong Qingqing, I asked Nan Qiao to lecture for your benefit. She participated in the competition and can share the process with you, even performing the experint again for everyone. If you don’t wish to attend the lecture, you don’t have to go. No one is forcing you, correct?”
The director was irked—he had gone to great lengths to persuade Nan Qiao to give a lecture and share her dical knowledge.
And then there was Dong Qingqing, not wanting to learn herself and even trying to stop others from attending.
The director continued, “I’ll initiate a sign-up list. Those who want to attend can sign up. Those who don’t can skip it. Simple as that.”
Dong Qingqing: “…”
“Director, Nan Qiao is also a student. Isn’t this approach a bit inappropriate?”
“I consulted the principal on whether it’s appropriate. If you’re dissatisfied, feel free to talk to the principal,” the director said.
Surrounded by the teachers, Dong Qingqing left the office, visibly upset.
The director looked after her retreating figure, shaking his head, “This Dong Qingqing’s attitude is really off.”
Other teachers nodded in agreent, “Dong Qingqing really doesn’t know what she’s thinking. Such a rare opportunity, yet she doesn’t cherish it.”
Another teacher said, “Nan Qiao’s abilities are so impressive. Being able to attend her lecture is an incredible chance for learning.”
The teachers began praising Nan Qiao endlessly,
…
The lecture was scheduled for four in the afternoon, lasting for an hour.
Nan Qiao wore a white blouse under a black suit jacket, paired with her hair tied up, displaying her smooth forehead.
Her makeup was light yet accentuated her facial features, exuding both purity and a touch of allure.
Nan Qiao walked up to the lectern, and the tiered classroom was completely packed.
So people brought folding chairs when there weren’t enough seats.
For those unable to fit chairs, they stood and listened.
The audience began whispering among themselves.
“Is this the national college entrance exam champion? A beauty with both brains and talent!”
“I heard she has a boyfriend already.”
“As if her not having a boyfriend would an you’d have a shot with her.”
Soone else whispered, “Actually, I heard she doesn’t have a boyfriend. She says she does just to avoid interruptions to her studies.”
“Hu Zi, you’re probably right about that. If Nan Qiao did have a boyfriend, wouldn’t he be making his feelings public by now? Otherwise, isn’t he afraid soone might snatch her up?”
These words reached Li Yehan’s ears.
Li Yehan, dressed in a white shirt, light-colored jeans, white sneakers, and a baseball cap, radiated sunny, clean-cut charm. Even without seeing his face, it was evident he was a charismatic heartthrob.
Li Yehan suddenly felt the urge to make a high-profile declaration of love, putting an end to future troubles.
At this mont, Li Xia entered with a group of people.
She ca in through the back entrance, noticing Li Yehan amidst the crowd.
Li Xia squeezed her way over, eyes lighting up as she slipped into the seat next to Li Yehan, greeting him in a sweet tone, “Brother.”
Without glancing up, Li Yehan stood and moved to the back of the room, ignoring Li Xia completely.
Li Xia’s face fell, visibly enraged.
Li Yehan even ca to school just to attend Nan Qiao’s lecture?
Was he willing to set aside work to waste an hour on this?
Li Xia lowered her eyes, jealousy and resentnt boiling underneath.
Beside her, Dong Qingqing whispered, “Xiaxia, is that your boyfriend?”
Other friends pressed her with the sa question, prompting Li Xia to look up and say with a smile, “You guys shouldn’t spread nonsense.”
Dong Qingqing’s envy was evident, “Xiaxia, you’re so shy. So he really must be your boyfriend, isn’t he?”
