Chapter 1165: Chapter 1178: Trap (Part 4)
After taking a shower and putting on makeup, she drove to the hotel they had agreed upon.
She took the elevator up to the reserved floor, walked through the corridor, and as soon as she reached the room door, she saw Qin Shaonan standing there smoking.
For just a moment, Xiang Xiran was startled, but she quickly put on a smile that could make any man fall for her, "Qin Er Shao, you’re early."
Qin Shaonan, "Just in time, not too early."
Xiang Xiran glanced at the time; she had arrived an hour early so she could be thoroughly prepared, but he had arrived even earlier!
After swiping the room card and entering the guest room, she lay on the big bed in a seductive yet relaxed pose, looking at Qin Shaonan, "Can I borrow a cigarette?"
Qin Shaonan reached into his suit pocket, found the cigarette box, pulled out one for himself, then tossed it onto the bed.
Xiang Xiran reached for the cigarette, "Light."
Qin Shaonan lit his own cigarette, took a puff, then extinguished the lighter and tossed it over.
Xiang Xiran glanced at the lighter on the bed, didn’t pick it up, and flipped off the bed, walking barefoot towards Qin Shaonan.
Qin Shaonan stood not far away, looking indifferent.
At just the right distance, Xiang Xiran stopped, took a serious look; Qin Shaonan and Huo Jinnan were similar men, rationality told her not to mess with him, but—
Thinking of Huo Jinnan’s attitude towards her, the more she thought, the more unwilling she felt.
A hand landed on Qin Shaonan’s shoulder, "Got a light?"
Her red lips held onto the cigarette, leaning towards Qin Shaonan’s cigarette tip.
Qin Shaonan raised his hand, dodged her action, took a puff, moved to the side and sat on the nearby sofa, his hand holding the cigarette resting on his leg, his gaze lifted to look at Xiang Xiran, his eyes cold as ice, seemingly warning strangers to keep away.
Xiang Xiran, feeling indignant, didn’t humiliate herself further by leaning in again. In one day, she had been rejected by two men, one of whom was older!
They stared at each other for a while; she smiled, sat on the sofa next to him, "Does Qin Shao have any interest in working with me?"
Qin Shaonan looked at Xiang Xiran, his voice as cold as his expression, "What can you offer me?"
Xiang Xiran took a puff, slowly blew out a smoke ring, looked at Qin Shaonan with sensual red lips, "As far as I know, Qin Shao’s fourth uncle has recently been taking his new wife Wen Ru to the obstetrics several times. Qin Er Shao wouldn’t be unaware, right?"
Qin Shaonan remained silent.
Xiang Xiran smirked, getting to the point, "Aren’t you afraid your fourth uncle will have a son?"
Qin Shaonan’s thin lips parted coldly, "Either a son or a daughter, what else can be born?"
Xiang Xiran paused, locking her gaze on Qin Shaonan for a long time.
This man obviously had no expression, yet felt colder than Huo Jinnan.
Qin Shaonan sat there smoking.
Xiang Xiran hesitated for a moment, "Qin Er Shao is a smart man, otherwise he wouldn’t have come today. Since you came, it means you have ambitions."
"Oh, let’s hear it?"
Qin Shaonan looked at Xiang Xiran.
Xiang Xiran reached into her pocket for a deck of cards, placed it on the table, "Draw one, Qin Shao."
Qin Shaonan drew a card, handed it to Xiang Xiran without looking.
Xiang Xiran glanced at it and laughed, "Qin Shao, do you know what you picked?"
Qin Shaonan remained silent, just glanced coldly.
Xiang Xiran flipped the card on the table, "Ace of Spades, this indicates that today all your business deals and negotiations will be successful."
Qin Shaonan looked at Xiang Xiran, "Actually, I’m here for another matter."
