Quick Wear: The soft cannon fodder turns into a heartthrob and seduce

After dinner, Mu Zhou and Qin Zhan went to the company together.

Mu Zhou had originally intended to have the driver drop him off earlier, but Qin Zhan insisted on refusing.

"They already know you're one of my people, so what's there to hide?"

Mu Zhou vaguely felt that something was wrong with what he said, but he couldn't refute it.

Everyone in the department knew she was a "backdoor hire"—she got in through connections.

It seems like... it's okay if we're seen going to work together?

So, she could only get off the car with Qin Zhan, feeling a little uneasy.

Qin Zhan even brazenly took her along in his private elevator.

Along the way, Mu Zhou, taking advantage of the situation, stood beside him, receiving respectful greetings from everyone.

She almost couldn't maintain her smile.

I finally relaxed once I got on the elevator.

Inside the elevator, Qin Zhan could see her unease reflected in the elevator mirror.

He stared ahead and calmly spoke:

"You have to get used to it."

"……what?"

Mu Zhou turned to look at him.

Qin Zhan lowered his eyes and met her gaze:

"You'll get used to these stares; there will be plenty of these kinds of scenes in the future."

His tone was meaningful, as if it contained some kind of emotion.

Mu Zhou didn't quite understand, and just nodded blankly.

Mu Zhou arrived at her floor first. Before leaving, Qin Zhan suddenly rubbed the top of her head.

"Come find me at noon, let's have lunch together."

"okay!"

Mu Zhou was preoccupied with the idea that Qin Zhan's lunch would be of a higher standard than the cafeteria's, so he happily agreed.

The elevator doors slowly closed.

Most people in the office knew about what happened today, and everyone was curious and itching to ask, but no one dared to ask.

Only one girl who was on good terms with Mu Zhou asked the question:

"Mu Zhou, what's your relationship with our CEO Qin? I heard from them that you two arrived together this morning."

Mu Zhou nodded and told her what he could:

“We’re not relatives, we’re not related by blood, it’s just that… I grew up in the Qin family and we live together now.”

The little girl suddenly realized what was happening.

Turning around, she told others:

"They're childhood sweethearts. Mu Zhou grew up in the Qin family, so I guess they're engaged, which is why they've always lived together. Aren't people in their social class often engaged or something?"

Everyone exclaimed in surprise, "So Mu Zhou is President Qin's fiancée!"

The rumor spread quickly.

The male employees who had initially been eager to try their luck with Mu Zhou immediately backed down and dared not harbor any further fantasies.

Qin Zhan also learned about it immediately.

After reporting this matter, Secretary Zhang inquired:

"President Qin, should I issue an internal warning to stop the rumors and explain your relationship with Miss Mu?"

Qin Zhan's gaze swept over him coolly:

"No need."

"..." Secretary Zhang blinked, somewhat confused. "You mean, just ignore it and let the rumors spread?"

Upon receiving Qin Zhan's icy gaze again, Secretary Zhang immediately shut up:

"I understand."

He slunk away from the office, feeling utterly bewildered.

Secretary Zhang has been with Qin Zhan for so many years, so he naturally knows Mu Zhou's identity.

how……

His eyes widened instantly.

Could it be...? !

He suddenly covered his mouth.

During lunch break, Mu Zhou stood Qin Zhan up.

"Lin Juan asked me to meet her, and I had lunch with her."

Qin Zhan instinctively wanted to go with her.

"I'm worried."

Over the phone, he frankly expressed his concerns, his words revealing deep concern.

Mu Zhou's heart was beating a little fast. She paused for a moment before saying:

"Don't worry, nothing will happen. We'll meet at the restaurant downstairs. Lots of my colleagues eat there; we're all family."

Qin Zhan had no choice but to agree.

Lin Juan had been waiting in the restaurant for quite some time.

Her face was full of fatigue, and she looked as if she hadn't slept all night.

Upon seeing Mu Zhou, she forced a smile:

"Let's order first. See what you'd like to eat."

After Mu Zhou ordered the food, she explained her purpose.

"Xu Le and I broke up."

After Mu Zhou and Qin Zhan left, they had a big argument.

Lin Juan truly never expected that Xu Le would slander her like this.

It was clearly his malicious speculation, yet he insisted on pinning it on her, just to please another girl.

His words and tone sounded so unfamiliar to her.

What she didn't expect was that after taking him to the hospital, she checked his phone for the first time.

She used to think that partners should have basic trust and privacy.

So even though I knew his password, I never checked it.

But this time, she inexplicably turned on his phone.

Sure enough, no girl could walk away from her boyfriend's phone with a smile.

He flirted, hooked up, and frequented brothels—he did it all.

He was so open about the information he had that he didn't even delete it.

He was so certain that Lin Juan wouldn't check.

He did know her well; before this, Lin Juan had never turned on his phone.

Those chat logs, every single word, made her feel nauseous and wanted to vomit.

She actually dated such a person for over ten years.

She no longer wanted to know when or why he had changed his mind.

She just wanted to leave, to leave as soon as possible.

Otherwise she would throw up.

She wanted to break up, and Xu Le naturally didn't want to.

Where can he find such a virtuous, capable, and hardworking woman who doesn't ask for a dowry or a house and is willing to struggle alongside him?

He shouted that he would call the police and sue Mu Zhou and Qin Zhan, and vowed that he would clear his name.

But before he could dwell on it, his scandalous affairs became widely known, and now his colleagues and friends all knew he had a sexually transmitted disease and kept their distance from him.

An anonymous report also surfaced alleging that he had a chaotic personal life and engaged in misconduct. Upon learning of this, the company issued him a termination notice.

"He's too busy taking care of himself right now, so the division of assets is relatively easy for him."

Lin Juan gave a bitter smile and shook her head self-deprecatingly:

“You know what? After Guan Ying came back and found out about these things, she showed me a chat log, which contained harassing messages that Xu Le sent her.”

Guan Ying was another roommate.

The two had exchanged messages for other reasons, but Xu Le couldn't resist flirting with S immediately, so Guan Ying blocked him.

She was afraid that if she told Lin Juan, Lin Juan wouldn't believe her and would instead turn the tables on her.

Guan Ying was short of money and didn't want to move, so she had no choice but to swallow her anger.

Lin Juan then realized that Xu Le had been relentlessly targeting those around her.

But she was so blind that she didn't notice at all.

Mu Zhou wasn't good at comforting people, so he could only offer the following advice:

"Fortunately, you two aren't married yet."

Lin Juan smiled bitterly:

"This is just the beginning; my real test is yet to come."

Her family did not approve of her breaking up with her boyfriend before marriage.

After she told her family about it early this morning, they called her one after another, advising her not to act impulsively.

Her parents, her extended family, uncles, aunts, and so on, all came to criticize her.

In their eyes, these were all minor matters. Xu Le was just having some fun outside, and he knew what was important and never brought it up in front of her, which showed that he still valued his family.

Mu Zhou was stunned after hearing this.
