Chapter 44 Qiao Muxue, Are You Sick?

Editor: Atlas Studios

"..." Why did her words feel so ambiguous to her?

"Can't do it?"

Seeing her silence, Qin Si's deep eyes glanced at her like an emperor looking down upon a subject.

"What exactly do you mean by 'needs'?" she asked exceedingly carefully, a touch of crimson blooming on her cheeks.

Although the man before her had saved her from dire straits several times, she still didn't know him well. What if she carelessly sold herself out? Wouldn't she be foolish enough to count the money for him?

Qin Si suddenly propped up his own half-charming face with his hand, the amusement in his eyes profound, "What do you think?"

"...I don't know."

Qin Si didn't tease her anymore, since he still had to go to the company.

"Rest assured, I'm not so 'desperate' to have that kind of 'need' for you!"

"..." Why did she feel so embarrassed?

Was it only she who had let her thoughts go astray just a moment ago?

And what did he mean by 'desperate'!? She thought she was quite pleasing to the eye!

As for her facial features and figure, Gu Qiangwei was very satisfied!

Since it was not that kind of 'need', she had nothing to worry about.

"Alright."

Seeing her obediently nod in agreement, Qin Si then stood up contentedly and strode toward the doorway.

Gu Qiangwei also came back to her senses, about to turn around when a sudden rush of her cell phone ringtone sounded.

Looking down, she saw the words 'Qiao Muxue' light up at the top of the screen.

"Hello?"

Her voice was somewhat indifferent, already braced for Qiao Muxue's torrent of drama!

And sure enough, before Gu Qiangwei's words fell, a deafening roar immediately blasted from the receiver!!

"Gu Qiangwei! What time is it now, and you still haven't arrived! Do you not want to work anymore?!"

Gu Qiangwei held the phone a few inches further away until the shouting inside subsided before putting it back to her ear, "I'm on my way!"

"If you don't get to the company before 9 o'clock, don't even think about getting this month's internship salary!"

'Click!' Dropping the words, Qiao Muxue harshly hung up the call!

Looking at the disconnected phone, a flame ignited inside Gu Qiangwei, "Qiao Muxue, you're insane!!"

Had she not been financially stretched, she might have been so furious she'd have smashed the phone!

Checking the time, it was already 8:35 AM; how could she possibly make it to Starlight Entertainment in 25 minutes?

Damn Qiao Muxue, even if it was just a second late, according to her character, she would definitely withhold the month's wages from her!

Grabbing her bag without a moment's hesitation, Gu Qiangwei turned and dashed out of Jueyuan!

However, even with her full force, she still only arrived at Starlight Entertainment at 9:03 AM, sprinting all the way!

As soon as she got to the office, Qiao Muxue was already waiting there!

"Gu Qiangwei, you think you're a big shot now, huh?"

With arms crossed and looking down at the approaching Gu Qiangwei, Qiao Muxue wore an air of haughty arrogance.

Gu Qiangwei, irritated, gave her a sidelong glance and muttered under her breath, "Not as big as you..."

"What did you say!?"

Qiao Muxue had heard her mumbling, but didn't catch what she said clearly.

She only knew that with the pressure she exerted on her at the company, Gu Qiangwei would never say anything positive!

"Nothing!"

"Gu Qiangwei, this new movie project is a major investment of 5000, with President Huang being the biggest investor. You actually injured him and sent him to the hospital; I really want to see how you're going to compensate for the company's losses this time?"
