After swapping bodies, I became a domineering CEO in a melodramatic novel.
Chapter 13 You really want a divorce from me?
Chairman Zhao looked up, glanced at Yu Yuetong, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, and then smiled and said, "President Qin looks great today. It seems that being newlyweds is indeed very pleasing."
Yu Yuetong gave an awkward laugh, but inwardly rolled her eyes: "Easy my foot! I'm exhausted from constantly battling wits with that Qin Reng guy!"
"Chairman Zhao, what brings you here today?" Yu Yuetong tried to use Qin Reng's usual slightly indifferent tone, hoping to get away with it.
"I heard that your Qin family recently acquired a new batch of top-quality rubies. I was just thinking of commissioning a necklace for my wife," Chairman Zhao said slowly, putting down his teacup.
Ruby? Yu Yuetong was startled again. She was a complete novice when it came to jewelry. What if she was exposed?
“Of course, our Qin family’s rubies are top-notch in the industry,” Yu Yuetong said, forcing a smile, while desperately trying to signal to her assistant to quickly find a jewelry designer to save the day.
The assistant understood immediately and went out to find someone.
Yu Yuetong chatted casually with Chairman Zhao, but she felt as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
Fortunately, not long after, the assistant brought in a gentleman who wore gold-rimmed glasses and looked very refined.
"Mr. Qin, this is our chief jewelry designer, Leo," the assistant introduced.
Yu Yuetong quickly pulled Leo to her side, as if he were a lifeline, "Leo, this is Chairman Zhao of Huanyu Group. He wants to customize a ruby necklace."
Leo greeted Chairman Zhao politely, and then began to explain in detail the characteristics, cutting methods, and different design styles of various rubies.
Yu Yuetong listened from the side, completely confused, but felt that Leo spoke very logically and professionally, and secretly admired him: No wonder he is the chief designer!
After listening to Leo's explanation, Chairman Zhao smiled with satisfaction. "Not bad, it seems that your Qin family lives up to its reputation. I really like Leo's design, let's proceed with your plan."
Yu Yuetong was overjoyed and immediately instructed her assistant to prepare the contract.
After signing the contract, Chairman Zhao got up to leave. Yu Yuetong personally saw him to the door, and breathed a sigh of relief: I finally got through this!
After seeing Chairman Zhao off, Yu Yuetong returned to her office and slumped into her chair. She picked up her phone and sent Qin Reng a message: "A big client came to the company today, and I got it sorted!"
Not long after, Qin Reng replied: "Well done, I'll give you a reward tonight."
A reward? Yu Yuetong raised an eyebrow. What was this guy up to now?
When Yu Yuetong returned home that evening, she found that Qin Reng had personally cooked a sumptuous dinner.
"You did a good job today, you deserve praise." Qin Reng placed a steak on Yu Yuetong's plate with a smile on his lips.
Yu Yuetong looked at him suspiciously, "Why are you being so agreeable today? Are you plotting something?"
Qin Reng smiled. "What scheme could I possibly have? I just felt that my wife is so capable, I should reward her properly."
Yu Yuetong pouted, not believing his nonsense. However, with such delicious food in front of her, she couldn't care less and picked up her knife and fork to start eating.
Halfway through the meal, Qin Reng suddenly put down his knife and fork, looked at Yu Yuetong with a serious expression, and said, "I have something I'd like to discuss with you."
"I have something I'd like to discuss with you," Qin Reng said, feigning seriousness, his handsome brows furrowing slightly, as if the country were about to entrust him with some important mission.
Yu Yuetong's heart skipped a beat. Was this guy up to something again? She put down her knife and fork warily and stared at him suspiciously: "Speak, what is it? Let me make it clear first, I don't do anything illegal or criminal!"
Qin Reng almost laughed at her serious expression. He cleared his throat and tried to maintain a serious demeanor: "A friend of mine is getting married next week, and you have to attend in my place."
"Go in your place?" Yu Yuetong was stunned, then realized that this guy meant to use his body to participate. "Are you kidding me! I don't even know your friend, what would I do there?"
"Aren't you my wife? Isn't it normal for a wife to attend her husband's friend's wedding in his place?" Qin Reng said matter-of-factly.
Yu Yuetong almost spat out the steak in her mouth: "Normal my foot! We're in a soul-swap situation right now. You want me to use your body to attend your friend's wedding? Aren't you just trying to embarrass me?"
"What are you afraid of? It's not like I won't tell you who they are. All you have to do is smile, nod, and congratulate them." Qin Reng waved his hand dismissively.
Yu Yuetong rolled her eyes at him: "Easy for you to say. What if your friends ask me about things I don't know? If I give myself away, you'll lose face too!"
"Don't worry, my friends are all business partners, they won't ask you any personal questions," Qin Reng assured him confidently.
"Business partners? That's even more unacceptable! How would I know anything about your business matters?" Yu Yuetong shook her head vigorously.
"Hey, can't you have a little more confidence? I'm the president of Qin's Group, after all. How bad can my friends be? If you go, you might even be able to help me close a few deals!" Qin Reng started making empty promises.
Yu Yuetong wasn't buying it: "Come on! I have absolutely no interest in your businesses. I just want to get my body back as soon as possible, then divorce you, take the money, and leave!"
Qin Reng was taken aback by her blunt words, and his expression darkened slightly: "You really want a divorce?"
"Nonsense! Do you expect me to spend the rest of my life with you?" Yu Yuetong retorted, her tone laced with sarcasm.
Qin Reng remained silent for a moment, looking at her with a complicated expression, before finally speaking, "What if I said I don't want to divorce you?"
Yu Yuetong was stunned; she hadn't expected Qin Reng to say something like that. Was this guy serious?
"What...what do you mean?" Yu Yuetong asked, somewhat stammering.
Qin Reng didn't answer, but stood up, walked to her, gently brushed a strand of hair behind her ear, and looked at her with eyes so tender they seemed to drip with water: "Yu Yuetong, forget it, since we can't switch back our souls anyway, you'll just have to go in my place for now."
Yu Yuetong's mind went blank; she couldn't react at all.
Qin Reng's approach made her feel inexplicably nervous, and her heart began to race.
His gaze and his movements felt both strange and familiar to her.
What was unfamiliar was that this was not the cold and domineering Qin Reng she remembered.
What was familiar was that she seemed to have seen that gentle gaze somewhere before…
"You..." Yu Yuetong was about to speak when Qin Reng suddenly leaned down and caressed her lips.
This caress came unexpectedly, yet it carried an irresistible tenderness.
