Let you raise pigs?But kicked me out of the classmate group?

Qin Hao pulled her closer and kissed her more deeply. Their tongues intertwined, as if they wanted to melt their bodies into this moment of softness.

"Cough-cough-"

A soft cough suddenly came from the doorway, and the two abruptly separated. Ailiya's face instantly turned red, and she buried herself in Qin Hao's arms, not daring to look up.

Charlie leaned against the doorframe, covering his eyes with one hand and waving the other.

"Boss, I didn't see anything, I just came to pick up a document."

Despite saying that, the smile on her lips was impossible to hide. She slowly moved to the table and pretended to rummage through something.

He was also very happy to see the two of them get married.

He had followed Qin Hao all the way and knew that these two people had really had a tough time.

Qin Hao cleared his throat, patted Ailiya's back, and smiled.

"Find it and leave quickly."

For some reason, he felt a secret sense of satisfaction.

Charlie picked up the documents, winked at Aria before leaving, and quietly slipped out, closing the door behind him.

Just as I closed the door, I saw Engineer Wang rushing over with a folder in his hand, his face beaming with excitement.

"Charlie, is President Qin here? There's a new discovery in the mine, the gold content is..."

"Shh-"

Charlie grabbed him, gestured toward the door with his chin, and lowered his voice, which carried a hint of scolding.

"Engineer Wang, what are you doing here at a time like this, causing trouble?"

Wang Gong was stunned for a moment, then put his ear to the door to listen. He could vaguely hear Ailiya's soft reproach and Qin Hao's low laughter from inside. He immediately understood and his old face turned red.

"I...I just came to share some good news."

"When can't we share good news?"

Charlie patted him on the shoulder with a mischievous grin, "The boss has been working himself to the bone lately and finally got a break. Don't go in and be a third wheel."

"Besides, with Miss Aria's temper, if you go in and ruin things, she might send you to clean up the slag."

Engineer Wang nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, I'll come later, I'll come later."

He quickly turned around and walked back, but after taking two steps, he turned back again and winked at Charlie, "Um, tell President Qin to... take it easy."

Charlie laughed so hard he couldn't stand up straight. Leaning against the wall, he watched Engineer Wang's back and muttered to himself: "The boss's efficiency is faster than mining gold."

He leaned against the door, deciding to act as a doorman and stop anyone who came.

Inside the door, Ailiya punched Qin Hao and scolded, "It's all your fault!"

Qin Hao took her hand, kissed it, and a smile spread across his eyes.

"What's it to blame me for? Is it because I made you fall for me?"

"No!"

Arya was stubborn, but she let him hold her hand; the combined warmth of their bodies made her feel uneasy.

"Then... continue?"

"Um... Ah, you! Why so suddenly?"

"..."

I don't know how long I was up and about, but the next day had already arrived.

That night, no one disturbed them.

Qin Hao stretched and yawned, feeling really refreshed!

Charlie's decision to place a bed here was truly prescient!

He walked out and felt refreshed.

But the next second, he was dumbfounded.

I almost slapped him.

Charlie, with dark circles under his eyes, stared blankly at him.

"What happened to you?" Qin Hao asked, frowning. "How did you get yourself into this mess?"

Charlie rubbed his sore eyes and gave Qin Hao a resentful look.

"Boss, you look much better... I was on guard at the door all night last night!"

He started listing his complaints on his fingers, like a wronged woman pouring out her grievances.

"First, Engineer Wang came to report on the mine's condition, then the finance department delivered reports, and later even the kitchen auntie came to ask about the late-night snack menu..."

As he spoke, he yawned, his eyes almost closing.

"I stopped twelve groups of people, and now the whole company is talking about you and Miss Aria..."

"Ahem!" Qin Hao's ears burned, and just as he was about to say something, the door behind him suddenly opened.

Arya straightened her collar as she walked out, and was clearly taken aback when she saw Charlie's dark circles under his eyes.

Charlie immediately straightened his back, and his whole demeanor became more alert for a second.

"Good morning, Miss Aria! Did you get a good night's rest last night..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qin Hao elbowed him.

He knew this guy was up to no good.

Didn't you see Arya's face flushed? You're deliberately provoking her!
Aria's face flushed red, she glared at Qin Hao, and turned to leave.

She hadn't expected Qin Hao to be so strong and so fierce. She tried to hold back from shouting so loudly, but she couldn't control it at all; it was like an instinctive reaction.

Qin Hao quickly grabbed her, "Wait, I've asked the kitchen to prepare your favorite blueberry pancakes..."

After a night of physical exertion, you need to replenish some sugar, right? Don't let yourself get low blood sugar.

Just then, hurried footsteps came from the end of the corridor, and Engineer Li from the exploration team rushed over holding a mineral sample.

"President Qin! We've discovered associated emeralds in the No. 3 ore vein!"

"Holy crap?"

Qin Hao was stunned for a second. This is a double success in both arts and sports! Good results on both fronts!

Unexpectedly, this place not only has gold mines, but also associated emeralds?

This is absolutely outrageous! It's even more outrageous than winning the lottery for a hundred million.

It seems this place is truly a blessed land.

It's a real pity that Qin Shi Huang wasn't buried here.

Charlie stepped in front of him, gritting his teeth, and said, "Engineer Li! Even if we find diamonds now, we'll have to wait!"

Only then did Li Gong notice the strange atmosphere between the three of them. His gaze shifted between Qin Hao and Ailiya, and he suddenly had an expression of realization, as if he had thought of something.

"Oh—I'll come again this afternoon!"

Before leaving, they thoughtfully hung a wooden sign that read "Meeting in Progress" on the door.

The more you try to cover it up, the more people will overthink it.

Ailiya stomped on Qin Hao's foot in embarrassment and annoyance, and said coquettishly, "It's all your fault! Now the whole company knows..."

Qin Hao smiled and pulled her into his arms, then turned to Charlie and said, "This month's bonus is doubled."

He suddenly lowered his voice and said, enunciating each word clearly, "Now, could you please disappear for a while?"

Charlie paused for a moment, then immediately closed his eyes and turned around.

"I'll go to the HR department right now to request my annual leave!"

He ended up bumping his head against the wall, clutching his forehead, and stumbled away.

After the corridor fell silent again, Qin Hao gently lifted Ailiya's chin. "Now, regarding the topic we didn't finish last night, I have new insights. Would you like to try again..."

"Again?" Aria's beautiful eyes widened. "I'm still in pain! Don't you have any sense of decency?"

"Jingle Bell--"

The office phone suddenly rang.

Taking advantage of the moment, Aria broke free from his embrace, blushing as she laughed, "Haha, Mr. Qin, why don't you handle your official business first?"

After speaking, she quickly left, her bright red ear tips faintly visible through her hair.

Qin Hao watched her fleeing figure, stroked his chin, and revealed a meaningful smile.

Just then, the secretary's voice came through the phone.

"President Qin, the video conference between Black Africa and the South will begin in five minutes..."

He sighed, picked up his suit jacket, and as he passed the door, he suddenly noticed a sticky note on the wall.

Charlie's handwriting was flamboyant.

Boss, I'm requesting a transfer to a branch office; the miners there shouldn't be as gossipy.

Qin Hao finally couldn't help but laugh out loud.

This guy really does whatever comes to mind.

Who would have thought that Charlie and he were once mortal enemies?

But I must say, the handwriting is actually quite good!
It seems Charlie is really studying Chinese culture seriously.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to write these words alone.

"interesting."

Unbeknownst to him, Qin Hao had changed yet another person.

As for why it's "again," we have to start from the beginning.

In the past few days, Qin Hao finalized a new plan.

Everything was proceeding smoothly according to his plan.

In the past few days, his relationship with Aria has progressed rapidly since that night.

The two would occasionally kiss in public, which infuriated the single people, but they couldn't do anything to Qin Hao and could only be angry but dare not speak out!
However, this cannot be blamed on Qin Hao.

If you get angry, Qin Hao will say, "Who told you to be single?" and you'll immediately lose your temper.

The venue for the Meicheng International Auction is located in a century-old castle.

The crystal chandelier refracted a dazzling light, exuding nobility, and the air was filled with a unique aroma that blended antiques with expensive perfumes.

There weren't many people, but those who came were all high-ranking officials, dignitaries, and celebrities.

This day marked the start of the auction that Director Liu had told Qin Hao about.

Qin Hao originally thought that Director Liu would come, but unexpectedly, the other party said that it was because Qin Hao had announced the gold price at the last minute.

In addition, the high purity of the gold meant that he and Qin Hao needed to avoid suspicion for the time being, as it was not appropriate for the two of them to appear in the same meeting.

Moreover, this was an auction with a clear purpose, which left Qin Hao speechless.

Moreover, because of Qin Hao's matter, Director Liu has indeed been quite busy these past few days.

When Qin Hao walked into the venue arm in arm with Ailiya, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Arya wore a silver fishtail gown that accentuated her slender figure, making her look like an elf under the moonlight.

Qin Hao, on the other hand, wore a black handmade suit, with a tall and straight posture and a powerful aura.

The two of them together look just like a prince and princess.

"I didn't expect this place to be so grand," Aria muttered to herself, her eyes curiously scanning her surroundings.

This was her first time visiting this place, and she found it quite an eye-opener.

"After all, it's an international auction, so the scale can't be small."

Qin Hao smiled faintly, not at all shocked.

Once you get used to bustling cities, these kinds of shocks won't have much of an impact on you.

His gaze swept across the room, quickly locking onto several familiar faces.

These people are all influential figures in the financial, mining, and business sectors.

It seems this auction is quite significant.

The two had just found a place to sit down when a well-dressed middle-aged man walked over with a wine glass in hand, a fake smile on his face.

"This must be Mr. Qin Hao. I've heard so much about you."

The man extended his hand and shook hands with Qin Hao.

"I am a representative of the Rockefeller family. Just call me Jason."

Qin Hao shook his hand lightly and released it quickly, saying in a calm tone, "Hello, Mr. Jason."

A hint of surprise flashed in Jason's eyes; he clearly hadn't expected Qin Hao to be so indifferent.

In his imagination, shouldn't Qin Hao be overjoyed that he took the initiative to strike up a conversation with him and even shake hands? Was he thinking of getting closer to him and asking for cooperation or something like that?

Qin Hao can only be said to be overthinking things.

But he continued, "Mr. Qin's discovery of high-purity gold in Katanga is truly amazing. I wonder if you would be interested in cooperating with our family?"

Since Qin Hao didn't bring it up, he had to bring it up himself.

"cooperate?"

Qin Hao raised an eyebrow, crossed his arms, and smiled faintly, "The Rockefeller family is also interested in gold?"

Jason chuckled and said, "We're interested in anything of value."

"As long as Mr. Qin is willing to relinquish some of the mining rights, the price is negotiable."

"Sorry, the mining rights are not for sale."

Qin Hao refused outright. This guy is so honest and outspoken; he just wants power!
"However, the gold can be sold to you at the market price."

"You're in a prime position; don't miss this opportunity."

Jason's smile froze on his face; he hadn't expected Qin Hao to be so disrespectful.

Are you insulting me?

"Do you think I'm some small-time distributor? You're selling to me at market price."

"What's wrong with being a distributor? Everyone starts out as a distributor, right?"

Jason snorted coldly upon hearing Qin Hao's words.

"Mr. Qin, don't be too confident. You might change your mind after the auction."

After saying that, he turned and left, extremely annoyed.

This guy is really disrespecting him!
Don't they know who he is?
Although he needed Qin Hao's help, how could these people, who grew up with a silver spoon in their mouths, understand what respect is?
