Chapter 108: A Formidable Task

still as steady and warm as ever. 。"Oh, I'm so sorry I'm late. If I don't go to work soon, I'll probably get fired." 。"Qin Jingwen chuckled to herself, seeming in good spirits. 。"You've been through...Before Qin Jingwen could react, Qiao Shunchen had already spoken first. 。"Grandpa..." But he only got out the two words "Grandpa" before being stopped by Qiao Dexiang. 。"You can't just do that to her..." 。Joe Xiang remained calm but intimidating, and Joe Shunchen didn't dare speak again, afraid that his efforts to protect Qin Jingwen might have the opposite effect. 。He gave Qin Jingwen, who looked a little bewildered, a reassuring look. 。Qin Jingwen was more composed than Qiao Shunchen. When she came here from home this morning, Qin Jingwen had already made preparations 。George wouldn't call her out of the blue. 。After enduring a whole day, Joe gave her enough face. 。I'll be right back, just you watch them 。Qin Jing reminded Qiao Shunchen to follow Qiao Dexiang into the study. 。Joe Chiang sat on the main seat of the sofa, letting Qin Jingwen sit down as well. 。It’s getting late, so I’ll just be straight with you. 。" Joe spoke solemnly. " 。"The Chairman may say as he pleases 。"

This exactly aligns with Qin Jingwen's meaning, and she doesn't want to beat around the bush

" 。"Are you with Shunchen again" Still the same question, Qiao Dexiang asked different people 。"Yes, I'm sorry for not keeping my promise to the chairman, but rest assured I will leave when the time comes." 。“

Qin Jingwen answered frankly>>> 。“Okay, I can trust you but I have some requirements ” 。You can't influence her work decisions, you can't interfere with his private life, and keep a low profile, don't make a big fuss. 。"

Joe Xiang believed in himself more. If Qin Jingwen couldn't do it, he also had a way to get her out of the picture. "> 。Joe Chang continued speaking. 。For Xu Xuan's sake, I won't hold your broken promise against you. 。"Could you do me a favor" 。"The chairman said, as long as I can do it, he will definitely help. " 。Qin Jingwen said this with gratitude. She knew she hadn't kept her promise and knew she was in the wrong. 。Joe had already made concessions, but his request for help still surprised Qin Jingwen. 。"That's it, Shunchen and his father haven't come back for many years." 。Jun also did not look at him. 。I'm dissatisfied with what you said about a rift between the father and son. Shun has an unresolved knot in his heart about this. 。I think Shunchen is more obedient to you, so I want to ask you for a favor and help them reconcile. 。“ This time, Joe Chiang's tone was much softer and not as stern as before. 。As for this matter, the last time I went to see Qin Jingwen at the hospital, he wanted to say something, but when he heard about Song Yien's affair, he put it off. 。Joe Xiang could see that Qin Jingwen had changed, and Qiao Shunchen's abilities were also changing. 。Or perhaps Qiao Shunchen willingly let Qin Jingwen manipulate him. 。He doesn't want Qin Jingwen to interfere with his work, but in personal matters, she is very helpful. 。Qin Jingwen showed an expression of surprise. She didn't expect Qiao Dexiang to tell her about family matters. 。He never talks to me about his family or anything that happens at home, and I have no idea what conflicts they might have. 。

As chairman, I don't know if I can be of help.

" Qin Jingwen spoke very tactfully, in fact she felt that she couldn't help at all. " 。She couldn't say she fully understood Qiao Shunchen's character. All she knew was that no matter which side he was on, Qiao Shunchen resisted and guarded against her. Even now that they were together, there wasn't a deeper understanding between them. 。Joe Shunchen was a mystery to her. She had never thought about solving it, and even when she tentatively tried to explore, Joe Shunchen would respond with disgust and indifference. 。"I said that if you could help, you definitely could. As long as you help me, I'll let you take Xuen along for the long term." 。You don't need to know the specifics. 。You only need to persuade him to reconcile with his father. 。George Hsiang is very perceptive about people and situations. Since Joe Shun-chen was a child, few have been able to change his mind. Qin Jingwen is the first, so she definitely has the ability 。Qin Jingwen showed her reluctance, but Qiao Dexiang couldn't give the task to anyone else. 。His tone of voice didn't allow for any rebuttal, what could Qin Jingwen do 。"Let me try." 。Qin Jingwen couldn't refuse and could only reluctantly agree. She felt this was a daunting task, more difficult than her software research. 。On the way home, Qiao Shunchen drove himself. Qin Jingwen sat in the passenger seat, and the two children were in the back, playing and chatting. 。Qin Jingwen was silent for a while, lost in thought over the task Qiao Dexiang had just given her. 。Now she somewhat regretted agreeing, having no idea what she was getting into. 。"What did Grandpa say to you" Qiao Shunchen's eyes narrowed, and he asked in a dark voice. 。Qin Jingwen came out of her grandfather's study, and her mood was not high. When she communicated with the child, it could be seen that she was forcing a smile. 。 Qiao Shunchen kept worrying about what his grandfather had said, whether it had put him in a difficult position. But because the child was there, he didn't open his mouth 。Seeing Qin Jing's suppressed expression, Qiao Shunchen became even more worried and couldn't help but ask. 。Qin Jingwen finally turned her head to look at Qiao Shunchen, but her heart was very conflicted. 。"Nothing It's just our business. " 。Qin Jingwen evaded the task Qiao Dexiang gave her. She couldn't ask directly, she had to infiltrate little by little. 。Qin Jingwen looked at that curvaceous profile and continued. 。He knew I was with you and said I had broken my promise to him. 。"He threatened you"Joe Shunchen listened anxiously. His grandfather would definitely say these things, he just wanted to know if his grandfather had made Qin Jingwen difficult. 。"No, for the sake of Xuan Xuan, I won't hold it against you" 。He said he doesn't want me to interfere with your work, or your family, and that I should keep a low profile and not show off. 。I told him to rest assured, I could fulfill all his requests. 。Qin Jingwen repeated what Qiao Dexiang had said. 。These were also Qiao Shunchen's requirements for her, and also a standard she set for herself. Even if Qiao Dexiang didn't say it, she was self-aware. 。"Just that" Joe Shunchen asked in doubt. 。“Well, that’s all.” 。“Besides that, she couldn’t say it too directly. 。"Grandpa didn't threaten you" Joe Shunchen still couldn't believe things had passed so simply. 。"No, how do you still hope he threatens me" 。“ Qin Jingwen said teasingly, but she understood in her heart that if Joe Dexiang didn't need her help, he would probably have been threatened already ” 。But why would Joe Xiang trust her so much to complete this task 。"I'm afraid he threatens you" 。“ Qiao Shunchen raised his voice, hearing the threat hanging over him and only then did his heart relax. ” 。"Are you concerned about me" "Concerned about you Why would I be concerned about you You're overthinking it." 。Joe Shun-chen's reaction was a bit big, so big that he felt it came out of the blue himself. 。He's worrying about her, isn't he He doesn't even seem to know himself. 。He only knew that the moment she and his grandfather entered the study, his heart skipped a beat. 。“Well, I guess I was being presumptuous.” 。"By the way, Dani is going to start work at the hospital tomorrow. She asked me to thank you." 。“

Qin Jingwen changed the subject. If one topic was discussed for too long, it would inevitably lead to an argument, which would affect the emotions of the two children later on. ” 。"No need to thank me" 。Joe Shun-chen's mind was not on others; he was still thinking about how Joe De-xiang could so easily agree to be with them. Even if there was Xuan Xuan's reason, it wouldn't be this easy to compromise. 。After returning home, Qin Jingwen helped her children with their homework while Qiao Shunchen went to his studio to work. 。Not until the child fell asleep did Qin Jingwen bring a cup of water to Qiao Shunchen's studio. 。"How much longer can you rest" Qin Jingwen asked as she placed the water on Qiao Shunchen's desk. 。“It’s over, I'm cleaning up” 。"Is something the matter" Qiao Shunchen looked up and asked Qin Jingwen. 。"It's nothing, just a little tired. If you're not finished, I'll go rest first." 。"

Qin Jingwen's heart was conflicted at this moment. She had come over to tentatively inquire about his family situation, but when the words reached her lips, she swallowed them back. " 。She was afraid that Joe Shunchen would tell her to mind her own business. 。When Qin Jingwen said she was tired, Qiao Shunchen's cold eyes softened a lot. 。He got up and walked to Qin Jingwen's face, directly pressing her against his chest. 。"You should get a nanny. It's too much work for you to clean this big house, go to work, and take care of two children all by yourself." 。Although Qiao Shunchen's voice wasn't warm, nor did it give off a sunny feeling 。But Qin Jingwen's heart melted at this moment. 。Is this still that icy Qiao Shunchen When did he learn to care about othersQin Jingwen looked at Qiao Shunchen with a dazed expression, feeling like she was dreaming. 。

For a moment

"No, I'm not comfortable with strangers in the house." 。I'll work a little harder so that you and the child can be more at ease. 。Qin Jingwen refused. She was also very tired, having to wake up early every day to tidy up the large house so it wouldn't affect her work. 。But in order for the child to grow up in a free environment, she decided to do it herself. 。After Qin Jingwen finished speaking, she unconsciously leaned her head against Qiao Shunchen's shoulder. Hearing such considerate words from Qiao Shunchen made her feel satisfied. 。"Find someone to do housework for an hour." 。Joe Shun-Chen insisted, he didn't want to see Qin Jingwen look so tired every day. 。"I...""That's it, tomorrow I'll have Sun Xu find someone" 。Qin Jingwen still wanted to object, but was interrupted by Qiao Shunchen's forceful words. 。"Don't be so nice to me, what if I fall for you" Qin Jingwen was intoxicated by Qiao Shunchen's dominance for the first time, and she wanted more and more of this kind of dominance. 。Qin Jingwen blurted out subconsciously, causing Qiao Shunchen's nerves to tighten. 。Will she fall in love with herself What should she do if she falls in love with him "There's nothing I can do about that, that's your problem." 。I will not fall in love with you. 。Although Qiao Shunchen didn't speak harshly, he still shattered Qin Jingwen's fantasies. 。Of course, love is mutual. She's just unrequited, what else can she expect 。"That's good, then it will be much easier when we separate later." 。Qin Jingwen still leaned against Qiao Shunchen's shoulder, and now she dared not raise her head even more, afraid that the sourness in her eyes would be seen by Qiao Shunchen. 。Aren't you tired, go to sleep. 。"It seems that Qiao Shunchen's voice was a little colder, as if he was somewhat dissatisfied with Qin Jingwen's last words. 。“Oh, I’m going to sleep now.” 。“

Qin Jingwen heard the coldness in his voice and had to wake up from her dream.

Leaving forever will never belong to her embrace. 。Then, Qin Jingwen was about to withdraw when she was unexpectedly picked up by Qiao Shunchen. 。"You're tired, let me carry you back to the bedroom." 。" Qiao Shunchen spoke in a low voice, ignoring Qin Jingwen's willingness or not, he strode out of the studio with great momentum.
