"Hmm... the number of men has increased..."

With a nimble turn, you linked your arm with Qin Che's: "It seems you've ignited the competitive spirit in some men..."

Qin Che chuckled softly and whispered in your ear, "Our hunter lady is just too charming..."

"Come on." You frowned slightly, looking at him while extending two fingers to press down the corners of his upturned lips. "Hmm? No flirting!"

"Hmm... the villain accuses first, your specialty." Qin Che's smile wasn't exactly compliant. He pulled your hand away, still unable to suppress his laughter, and said, "I didn't expect my little kitten to be so possessive now, not even letting others see her smile..."

You pulled him back to sit in the corner and said slowly, "Yes, you know that's good, you're mine..."

"Yes, I am yours..."

Just as you were whispering, a few people stepped through the crowd and walked in your direction.

The beautiful woman greeted you warmly at first.

Just as you were wondering why this pretty woman looked like an old acquaintance, Qin Che whispered in your ear, "I've seen her at the auction before."

You're only just realizing now that it was that time you remarked that your sister should eat something better.

You glanced discreetly at the man behind the glamorous woman. Fortunately, this woman was indeed a different person, and the man she brought this time seemed much stronger than the previous one.

"It's truly fate that we met Mr. Qin and his wife here..." The woman began to speak to you in a disjointed and polite manner.

Qin Che only responded with a few words, and soon the woman got down to business and started talking to Qin Che about business matters.

You listen from the side, completely confused, but you still pretend to understand everything, nodding from time to time.

Qin Che found you incredibly adorable.

Without caring about other people's gaze, he leaned close to your ear and said in a voice only you could hear, "Your acting has improved. I doubt anyone but me could tell. You wouldn't understand."

After a slight pause, you squinted and gave him a disgruntled look. Then, you covered your mouth with your hand, leaned close to Qin Che's ear, and whispered, "Even if I don't understand everything, I can tell it's a big business deal. Can you be a little more serious about something as important as making money?"

Qin Che smiled and nodded, "You're right, I'll listen to you..."

Once you finished talking, the beautiful woman continued her "motivational sales pitch."

Although Qin Che verbally obeyed and did as he was told, behind the scenes, he was secretly rubbing your ankle with his expensive custom-made leather shoes.

Even after you glared at them several times, they showed no sign of backing down.

Unable to bear it any longer, you lifted your high heels and stepped on his shoes.

Under your strong suppression, Qin Che finally calmed down for a while.

"I'll have someone send the contract later, so I won't bother you any longer..." The business was settled in just a few words. The woman habitually reached out her hand, wanting to celebrate the successful cooperation, but after seeing Qin Che's cold face, she withdrew her hand. So she and her people left after a brief exchange of pleasantries.

Fortunately, apart from this little incident, no one dared to bother you again until the end of the banquet.
