Power and Passion: A Billionaire's Secret

【Flirtatious FL x Cool and Noble ML, age gap】 Investment banking magnate Qin Jijing, the only son of this generation's Qin Family from Beijing, was rumored to have ancestors of no simple status. Hence, he had always been an awe-inspiring presence amongst the second generation of the Beijing Circle, someone no one dared to provoke lightly. Unfortunately, Jiang Ni's ambition was too great; she risked a relationship with him that was neither public nor heartfelt. She had ulterior motives, weaving trap after trap for Qin Jijing with various sweet nothings, and then heartlessly initiated a breakup. That night, as Jiang Ni prepared to flee, he cornered her in the bedroom for a confrontation. “I've deceived you for so long, and you still don't agree to break up with me?” “What do you mean by deception?” The man's tone was calm, as if he already knew something: “Those little schemes of using my connections to pave your own way? Then, you could have aimed a bit higher.” “But if, what you're referring to is deception in terms of liking me…” The man's tone paused, but his insistence did not wane, “Nini, listen carefully to your own voice.” He said, “I don't think so. Your body doesn't think so either.”

Jiang Ni coughed severely, and Gao Qi quickly said, "I thought you were just pretending earlier, are you really sick?"

"Yeah."

Gao Qi had a lot on his mind that he wanted to say, but seeing her sick, he thought better of it and let it go.

It wasn't anything urgent anyway.

"You should rest well, I'll handle things over here, just find some time to join the video meeting."

Jiang Ni was spacey for a few seconds, "Okay, I'll confirm a time with Xiaoliu and then send it to the group."

After ending the call, Jiang Ni turned off her phone screen, flipped it over, and pressed it under her pillow.

Her throat was already hurting, and she didn't want to talk anymore for the time being.

Jiang Ni slept fitfully for a while longer before she pushed herself up in the afternoon, freshened up, and went upstairs to chat with her grandfather.

Her grandfather was not yet aware of her illness.

The butler had not informed the old gentleman.
