Love belongs to the mountains and seas, I don't belong to you

Chapter 39 A Strange Invitation

After returning from City C, Su Qian stayed in the study.

Every time Su Qian thought of the scene in the house, he was very scared. If he had been a few minutes later, he really couldn't imagine what the consequences would be.

Su Qian smoked a whole box of cigarettes and contacted almost everyone he could.

However, there is insufficient evidence and no one can do anything.

At this moment, Su Qian was even a little afraid to face Lin Cong. Thinking of Lin Cong's disheartened look last night, he was really at a loss.

Xia Ruohan pushed the door open and walked in, disrupting Su Qian's thoughts.

Seeing the scattered cigarette butts, Xia Ruohan exclaimed: "Oh my God, do you want to die? Smoking so many cigarettes."

"What do you want to say? Tell me now."

"I'm going to find Bai Luo."

"Ah."

"See if she can help."

"What did Bai Luo say?" When Su Qian heard that Xia Ruohan was going to find Bai Luo, a glimmer of hope flashed through his heart, and he asked anxiously.

Seeing Su Qian's anxious look, Xia Ruohan's eyes turned cold.

"There's nothing she can do. After all, there's no evidence, and she can't fabricate it."

After hearing this, Su Qian stopped talking. Was this matter really going to end like this?

"By the way, here's this for you. Bai Luo gave it to me."

Xia Ruohan threw a card on the table and turned to leave.

Su Qian opened the card. It was an invitation. Tomorrow night, Bai Luo was holding a jewelry exhibition.

Bai Luo loves jewelry very much. When she buys precious jewelry from all over the world, she will hold such exhibitions.

Some bosses would also buy some jewelry in order to curry favor with the Bai family.

Over time, jewelry exhibitions have taken on the flavor of jewelry trade fairs.

Despite this, many people would still fight for an invitation. After all, countless people wanted to use this opportunity to connect with the Bai family.

Even if they don't have any contact with the Bai family, anyone who can come to this jewelry exhibition must be rich or noble, and they might encounter new development opportunities.

Su Qian put the invitation aside. He never cared about such things, and going there was just a formality.

Now, what Su Qian is most worried about is Lin Cong.

In the afternoon, many photos of Lin Cong and Ye Wenhai appeared in the group. It was obvious that those photos were taken on purpose.

Su Qian felt that someone was behind the scenes messing with Lin Cong.

Afterwards, Su Qian received a call from the company and learned that Ye Wenhai’s wife had caused a scene at the company.

For safety reasons, Su Qian asked the security team to add more personnel to strengthen security.

Putting all the things together, Su Qian became even more certain that this was not an accident, but a trap designed by someone, and Ye Wenhai was just a move by the instigator.

The next day at work, Lin Cong met Xia Ruohan at the company gate.

"Congcong!"

"Hanhan, why are you here so early?"

"Of course I'm here to protect you. With me here, no one dares to say anything to you."

"It's okay, I'll just ignore them."

"Don't worry, I'm here." Xia Ruohan patted his chest.

After entering the company, everyone she met greeted Xia Ruohan politely.

In the elevator, the people who came up later didn't notice Lin Cong and Xia Ruohan.

"Hey, did you see that photo last night?"

"I saw it. Oh my god, it ruined my worldview."

"I finally understand what a slut is."

"Shut up, which department are you from?"

When Xia Ruohan's scolding voice was heard, several people realized that Lin Cong and Xia Ruohan were there.

"Ah, Miss Xia."

Almost everyone in the company knows that Lin Cong is Xia Ruohan’s best friend.

"I'm sorry, Miss Xia, we...we..."

At this time, the elevator arrived.

After getting off the elevator, a few gossipers stood aside like children who had made a mistake.

Xia Ruohan looked at their nameplates and said, "Human Resources Department, right? You're fired."

"Miss Xia, we don't dare anymore..." As they said this, several people looked at Lin Cong for help.

In Xia's company, it is well known that Manager Lin from the sales department is easy to talk to.

This is human nature. They will treat you like a rat behind your back, but will worship you as a god when they need you.

Lin Cong didn't want to intervene, but he was afraid that the people in the company would have a problem with Xia Ruohan and fabricate stories about her using her power for personal gain. Furthermore, if he really fired them, he might be labeled a bully.

"Hanhan, forget it."

"No, I won't watch you get bullied."

"Hello, Mr. Su."

Su Qian happened to come to the company.

"what happened?"

Seeing Su Qian coming, Xia Ruohan immediately went over and hugged his arm, "Hubby, I heard these people pointing fingers at Cong Cong. Fire them immediately."

Su Qian glanced at those people and said to them, "Have you forgotten the requirements for employee behavior in the employee handbook?"

Several people nodded.

"Apologize." Su Qian's voice was filled with unquestionable majesty.

Several people immediately apologized to Lin Cong respectfully.

This scene made Lin Cong feel a little embarrassed, as if he had really become the person who bullied others.

"Let's go and get back to work."

Su Qian knew that the more he talked about this matter, the worse it would get, and ignoring it would be a better solution.

In this case, if severe punishment is imposed, it will harm Lin Cong instead.

Xia Ruohan and Lin Cong came to Lin Cong's office together.

"I'm so angry! I would definitely fire them." Xia Ruohan complained.

"I've already apologized, it's okay."

"I almost forgot, I queued up early this morning to buy these dumplings, they're super delicious, I'm sure you'll love them."

As he spoke, Xia Ruohan handed one to Lin Cong.

Lin Cong took the steamed dumpling and took a bite. "It's really delicious. Thank you, Hanhan."

"Why are you being polite to me?"

"Right, here you go."

Xia Ruohan handed Lin Cong a card. It was also an invitation, just a different color from Su Qian's.

Bai Luo would use two colors when sending out invitations: golden for VIPs and red for ordinary guests.

Lin Cong took the card, opened it and saw the contents of the invitation.

"This is?"

"Bai Luo asked me to give it to you."

"Bai Luo? Why would the Bai family give me an invitation?"

"I often mentioned you to Bai Luo, and it turned out that Bai Luote wanted to meet you, so this banquet was a good opportunity for us to meet."

"Hanhan, I'd better not go."

Lin Cong knew that people who attended such occasions were either rich or noble, and it was inappropriate for someone of her status to go.

"Bai Luo said that if you don't go, she will call you personally."

Hearing Xia Ruohan say this, Lin Cong had no choice but to agree reluctantly.

"I'll go call Su Qian, and we'll go with you to choose a dress later."

"No need."

"You can't go to a party in business attire."

Lin Cong thought about it and realized that it was true, so he agreed to Xia Ruohan.

Su Qian didn't want to go, but he was worried about Xia Ruohan's careless behavior. He was worried that if he encountered any problems, Xia Ruohan would become the catalyst and make things worse.

In this way, Su Qian came to the mall with them.

In the mall, Xia Ruohan walked in front with Su Qian's arm in arm, while Lin Cong followed behind.

This shopping mall is owned by the Xia Group, so he can only act with Xia Ruohan.

The three of them came to a clothing store that had both suits and dresses.

"Dear, let me pick out a suit for you to wear tonight."

Xia Ruohan pulled Su Qian to the suit area.

"Miss Xia, President Su, is there anything I can help you with?"

Almost everyone in this mall knows Xia Ruohan and Su Qian.

"Are there any new items? Something suitable for a jewelry dinner?"

"Miss Xia, please take a look at these sets."

"I think this gray suit is nice. Congcong, take a look and see if it suits Su Qian."

Lin Cong didn't expect that Xia Ruohan would let him be an advisor.
