– 安然( ān rán)- An Ran, a director working in Ji Company and a daughter of a wealthy family. (Chapter 44)
– 纪衡宇( jì héng yǔ)- Ji Heng Yu, the chairman of Ji Company and he suffers from gynophobia
– 秦深( Qín shēn)- Qin Shen, the chairman and founder of Zhishen Technology.
An Ran looked at Ji Heng Yu and then at Qin Shen.
In her heart, she was thrilled to death.
Having two exceptionally good-looking people stand together, what kind of world-famous painting is this? (Whimper)… I’ve no regrets.
Of course, her Yue Yun Jin was also attractive.
But the types of attractiveness were completely different.
Xiang Yi Mo stared at Qin Shen’s face and froze.
She was sure that Qin Shen was beautiful, but she was used to seeing three very handsome boyfriends on a daily basis, so it was logical that she wouldn’t stare at someone else’s face for so long, regardless of how stunning they were.
However, there was always an inexplicable familiarity that made her eyes stick to Qin Shen’s face.
Since she stared at Qin Shen with no hint of concealment, it wasn’t just Qin Shen, the person being stared at, but the people next to her also noticed her probing glances.
The curvature of Ji Heng Yu’s mouth disappeared. Yue Yun Jin furrowed his brows slightly while An Ran tugged at Xiang Yi Mo.
Qin Shen glanced at her calmly as the young girl’s gaze contained only bewilderedness and curiosity, and there wasn’t a trace of covetousness, so he wasn’t displeased.
He only asked her coldly, “What’s wrong?”
The voice was low, magnetic and cold, like an instrument.
Xiang Yi Mo returned to her senses and embarrassedly wrapped her fingers around a lock of hair, winding through her hair repeatedly.
She coughed softly and casually commented, “Nothing, I just think Mr Qin is very good-looking.” She can’t tell him, “I think you look familiar. Have we met somewhere before?”
That would sound like she has strange intentions.
Qin Shen paused for a second. Although he was incredibly sure that wasn’t the reason, he wasn’t curious about her true thoughts because it didn’t matter to him at all.
Qin Shen responded with a soft “mm” sound. After much hesitation, he pondered for a moment and added, “Thank you.”
Ji Heng Yu’s face was so dark that it could drip water.
An Ran watched his boss’s expression and said dryly, “I think Mo Mo is simply admiring him. “
As she said that, she added as if to support her stance, “I also think Chairman Qin is very handsome! You’re as attractive as a male god. It’s normal that one couldn’t help but stare at such a good-looking face!”
“Is that so?” Ji Heng Yu snorted.
Xiang Yi Mo flinched upon seeing his gaze that was about to gobble her up.
She thought to herself, ‘Oh no!’
Before she could explain anything further, the half-smiling Ji Heng Yu left the venue after exchanging pleasantries and then left without a word.
An Ran also felt the arm around her waist tighten, and a hot breath poured into her ears, causing her body to shiver.
A certain man chuckled. “Male god? Good-looking? I’ll deal with you later when we get back.”
An Ran, “!” I’m dead! Help! QAQ
Qin Shen’s executive assistant looked at their distant backs and then at the two whispering beside him. Finally, he looked at Qin Shen, who gave the two little couples a little trouble, wearing an emotionless expression.
His boss is really …… a homme-fatale.
People came and left even though some people left the venue early.
However, the birthday party continued.
Qin Shen didn’t eat much at the party and was ready to leave after drinking two glasses of champagne.
Just when he was about to leave the banquet and had stepped out into the walkway, he heard a clear sound of footsteps sounding from behind him.
Once he had walked a little further away, he heard the footsteps hurrying to follow him and an unfamiliar tender voice calling out to him, “Mr Qin, hold up. I wish to speak to you.”
Qin Shen’s footsteps slowed down. Then, he saw an unfamiliar woman running up to him, looking at him with worried eyes. “Are you alright, Mr Qin? I just heard a lady inside asking the waiter to drug your drink. I…”
Translator’s Note: When the raws of this novel was ongoing, many readers questioned whether Qin Shen is a new male lead. In response, the author posted, “ Thanks for liking Qin Shen. He is the protagonist of another redemption novel.” This is also added to the author’s notes in the front cover of the novel (as seen in the foxaholic18 main page for this novel ).
In case you are wondering, as of now, I don’t think the author has written that said novel yet since I don’t think he is one of the male leads of the ongoing reverse harem novel.
