"As soon as the Imperial Concubine’s Beauty Cream hits the market, it is bound to be famous at ho and abroad, capable of rubbing the top international brands into the ground. It’s a product that can change the landscape of the industry. Therefore, our spokesperson must have international influence, must have won major international awards. Angelina is just a little internet celebrity, one who got famous by flaunting her body, and is not worthy of our Imperial Concubine’s Beauty Cream."
"Rubbing the top international brands into the ground, and the spokesperson has to have won international awards? Are you drunk again? I’m Mr. Xue now, not your wife, don’t bullshit !"
"I’m not bullshitting, everything I say will beco reality."
"So who do you want to sign as the spokesperson? In Dragon Country, there is only one who fits your criteria, and that is Ouyang Bingbing."
"Exactly her!"
"We couldn’t even get the little internet celebrity Angelina to agree, how are we supposed to get Ouyang Bingbing, this top-tier celebrity? Not to ntion Shencao Ji’s capability, even if Haiyun Group spent a fortune, they might not be able to get her. Ouyang Bingbing doesn’t lack endorsents! Right, I rember now. Ouyang Bingbing is the spokesperson for Huani Beauty Oral Liquid, the best-selling product, and she has a contract with Huani Group. To get Ouyang Bingbing to endorse for us, she would have to terminate her contract with Huani Group first, and pay a huge sum as a penalty. Do you think that’s possible?"
Xue Xiaochan’s words threw Qin Feng’s plan into disarray.
He had thought that as long as he could secure Ouyang Bingbing, he could get her to endorse the Imperial Concubine’s Beauty Cream. Now that Huani Group suddenly ca up, things beca complicated.
For the Imperial Concubine’s Beauty Cream to be an overnight sensation, Ouyang Bingbing had to be the endorser! No matter how troubleso it was, Qin Feng had to smooth things out.
"Is Huani Group that aweso?" Qin Feng asked.
"More than aweso? The behind-the-scenes owner of Huani Group is the Qin Family!"
"I know it’s the Qin Family. Ran Jie told when I went to Liu Haitao to collect debts last ti."
"Good to know! Don’t provoke Huani Group, don’t provoke the Qin Family. I can handle Xue Yuhang’s petty actions, but if you ss with the Qin Family, Shencao Ji going bankrupt would be the least of your problems. If things go south, you could lose your life, and the Xue Family could be dragged down too!"
"It’s just a matter of borrowing their spokesperson, at worst we pay the breach of contract fee. Both my life and the Xue Family’s misfortune are at stake; is the Qin Family that domineering?"
"More than domineering? Just steer clear of the Qin Family, don’t even think of irking them!"
...
After a night of heavy drinking, Xue Xiaochan didn’t wake up until noon.
Qin Feng didn’t return last night, sleeping in another bedroom instead.
After knocking at the door for a long ti with no response, Xue Xiaochan had no choice but to enter.
Qin Feng was still fast asleep, wearing just his underwear, clinging tightly to her favorite teddy bear.
The sight infuriated Xue Xiaochan, making her stamp her foot.
Their candid conversation last night had greatly closed the distance between them. Now, Xue Xiaochan almost regarded Qin Feng as her boyfriend.
So she casually grabbed a clothes hanger and approached him.
"Whack!"
The hanger struck Qin Feng on the buttocks.
"Ow!" Qin Feng yelped, jolted awake by the pain.
"What the heck?"
"Beating you! What do you think? For ssing with my teddy bear?"
Qin Feng couldn’t be bothered to reason with this woman. As he regained his senses, he realized he was only in his underwear and hurriedly grabbed the blanket to cover himself.
This action amused Xue Xiaochan.
"You keep calling wife, and now you’re shy around ? Hurry up and get out of bed, and take to the company later."
Dressed in her silk nightgown, Xue Xiaochan sashayed away.
Qin Feng quickly got out of bed, got dressed, and washed up.
Xue Xiaochan was busy in the kitchen, still in that captivating silk nightgown. Qin Feng couldn’t resist and hugged her from behind.
Xue Xiaochan froze like she had been electrocuted.
"What... what are you trying to do?"
"I want."
This character took Xue Xiaochan a good while to comprehend. Her face, already red with embarrassnt, flushed a deep crimson that spread to her neck.
"You scoundrel, get lost! If you dare to ss around, I’ll have Sisi scratch you."
Having failed his attempt at flirtation, Qin Feng quickly let go of her.
"I have already made the poached eggs in sweet rice wine soup. Two for and six for you. You get a bowl to dish them out; I’m going to change my clothes," he said.
After issuing her instructions, Xue Xiaochan clattered back to her room.
She found her cheeks burning hot and washed her face several tis with cold water, yet it still felt as if she had a fever.
The nerve of that man, what on earth does he think of all day long?
Xue Xiaochan quickly changed into an OL suit dress and applied a light makeup.
Once her emotions had settled, her complexion slowly returned to normal. After all, she was the woman who ran Haiyun Group, what kind of big storm hadn’t she seen before?
The hug Qin Feng gave her just now, deep down, she didn’t find it unpleasant at all.
If it had been last night, under the influence of alcohol, had Qin Feng taken the initiative like he just did, perhaps she wouldn’t have rejected him.
Because she could pretend to be drunk.
Now, sober, if she didn’t stop Qin Feng, what would that amount to? Wouldn’t it be tantamount to admitting that she was willing to be that guy’s wife?
A drunken mistake could easily be glossed over once sober. But when one is sober, they must take responsibility for their actions.
Xue Xiaochan once again lowered her standards internally, lowered her bottom line towards Qin Feng!
She could accept that after she got drunk, Qin Feng might take advantage and misbehave. Upon waking, she could just yell at him or punch him a few tis.
Qin Feng, in the kitchen, was unaware of Xue Xiaochan’s thoughts. Thinking about the hug from earlier, he felt he might have been too impulsive and worried it might have annoyed Xue Xiaochan.
The poached eggs in sweet rice wine soup in the pot were indeed cooked, but each one was either grotesquely shaped or had burst skins.
This cooking skill, has he ever even stepped into a kitchen before?
To make it up to Xue Xiaochan, Qin Feng decided to cook them again.
When Xue Xiaochan ca out dressed, she saw two big bowls of poached eggs in sweet rice wine soup on the dining table, eight in each bowl.
One bowl was what she had cooked earlier, and the other was Qin Feng’s work.
"What do you an by this?" she asked.
"Six eggs aren’t enough for , so I boiled a few more. You eat the ones I cooked, I’ll eat the ones you cooked."
"Why cook so many? I can’t even finish two."
"Can’t finish? Don’t ask to cook for you again later if it’s not enough!"
"Do you think I’m a pig?"
Xue Xiaochan picked up a spoon, scooped up an egg, and took a small bite.
Her taste buds were instantly overwheld.
Is this even a poached egg? Why does it taste so good? So she devoured them like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit.
The eight poached eggs were quickly swept clean by her. She even drank all the soup without leaving a drop.
Still not satisfied, she looked at Qin Feng with anticipation and asked, "Is there any more?"
"There’s another bowl here."
"I don’t want that one; it’s about as good as pig feed."
"Are you calling a pig?"
"What’s the matter? You don’t like it? I’ve never stepped foot into a kitchen my whole life. Today, on my first try, you, you mongrel, hit the jackpot."
