Chapter 49: Chapter 49: Door-to-Door Business_1
Tao Xiaoshuang felt some regret, regretting where she had left her weakness. She also felt some relief, thankful for where she had left her weakness. In any case, she was very conflicted right now.
She really wanted to seek Qin Feng’s help, but she certainly couldn’t initiate the request herself, could she? Unless she was his girlfriend!
Sun Manli was puzzled by Tao Xiaoshuang’s unusual behavior. She always felt that something was off about that girl tonight but couldn’t put her finger on what it was.
The next day, in the morning.
After taking Xue Xiaochan to the office, Qin Feng went downstairs to buy a bowl of beef noodles and brought it back to the office.
"Want some?"
"No."
Xue Xiaochan was busy and had no time to deal with this. Still, she couldn’t help but look up curiously.
"Why did you only buy one bowl?"
"Since you’re not eating, aren’t you always complaining about dieting? Whether it’s noodles or beef, the calories are very high, not suitable for someone like you on a diet!"
"Get out and eat! You’re stinking up the entire office."
"I won’t."
Xue Xiaochan stopped paying attention to Qin Feng, this guy was shameless, no use talking to him.
Slurrrp... Slurrrp...
Qin Feng ate noisily, with big mouthfuls, making a lot of sound.
Although she adamantly claimed she wanted to diet, Xue Xiaochan hadn’t eaten for three meals already! The aroma of the beef noodles assaulted her nostrils, making her already hungry stomach growl incessantly.
"Are you annoying or what? Hurry up and get out!"
Qin Feng took the bowl and rolled away, but not out of the office. Instead, he rolled over to Xue Xiaochan. He picked up a big piece of beef and held it up to her mouth.
"I’m not eating, scram! Don’t be a stumbling block on my road to losing weight!"
As Xue Xiaochan opened her mouth to speak, Qin Feng suddenly stuffed the beef into her mouth. The rich flavor of the meat instantly stimulated her taste buds, whetting her appetite.
"Bastard!"
Xue Xiaochan scolded Qin Feng irritably, snatched the bowl of beef noodles from his hands, grabbed the chopsticks, and started gobbling it down.
Although Qin Feng only brought one bowl, it was a large one. He had asked the owner to combine two bowls into one, plus he added two extra servings of beef.
A moment ago, although his actions were exaggerated and the noise was loud, he had actually eaten very little, just about half a bowl.
Xue Xiaochan, who hadn’t eaten since lunch the day before in order to lose weight, finished the remaining large bowl of beef noodles without hesitation.
The satiated her now had a visibly distended stomach.
"You’ve killed me, look at this stomach!"
"What’s wrong with the stomach? Are you pregnant?"
"Pregnant my head, ghost! Dare to make me pregnant, I’ll fight you for my life!"
Right at that moment, Liu Haitao came rushing in. As he reached the doorway, he heard Xue Xiaochan’s last sentence.
He looked at Qin Feng with a look of disbelief, then at Xue Xiaochan. And then, he understood.
No wonder such a lowly assistant has such great authority, able to represent Xue Xiaochan entirely. Turns out, Assistant Qin Feng isn’t just an assistant during the day—he also has to serve as an assistant at night!
Having interacted with Qin Feng a few times, Liu Haitao had personally experienced his impressive medical skills. He could also tell that Qin Feng was a man of great capability. So, it wouldn’t surprise him if Xue Xiaochan were to marry Qin Feng. The two of them could be considered a match of talented man and beautiful woman, a pairing of Heavenly Immortals!
"Mr. Xue, Assistant Qin, good! I hope I’m not interrupting the two of you?"
"Interrupting, indeed. Didn’t you hear me discussing the matter of having children with Mr. Xue?"
Xue Xiaochan glared at Qin Feng with hatred, barking fiercely, "Get out of here quickly! Mr. Liu has serious business with me."
"Uh... Mr. Xue, actually, I came to see Assistant Qin."
These words of Liu Haitao shocked Xue Xiaochan and, at the same time, made her feel somewhat embarrassed.
"When I’m not around, Assistant Qin can represent me entirely. When I am present, Mr. Liu, you can speak directly to me about anything."
"This is a matter Mr. Xue probably can’t decide."
"What matter can’t I decide?"
"It’s not a big deal, just that a friend of mine has a child who is sick. I would like to ask Assistant Qin to come over and take a look."
"Just that? You say I can’t decide? Qin Feng, it’s working hours now. You’ll do whatever I say. If you dare to run off, I’ll see how I deal with you!"
Xue Xiaochan had the fierce look of a tigress.
Qin Feng spread his hands, with a face full of embarrassment, "How about I go with Mr. Liu after work?"
"You can’t finish work; you have to work overtime today."
Liu Haitao wanted to say something, but he knew that anything he said at this moment would be wrong. Even if forced overtime was against the labor law, Qin Feng wouldn’t sue Xue Xiaochan! Besides, from Xue Xiaochan’s tone and the way she wanted to knife Qin Feng, she was clearly throwing a little woman’s tantrum!
Liu Haitao wisely chose to stay silent.
After pondering for a bit, Qin Feng had a stroke of inspiration and spoke up.
"Mr. Liu, I’d really like to help you. But you just don’t know how to talk. You’ve irritated our Mr. Xue as soon as you opened your mouth. If she doesn’t let me out, I can’t leave her for a single step. So now, the two of us need to work together to make her happy. Our Mr. Xue, you know, likes to see the money."
"Shencao Ji’s Imperial Concubine’s Beauty Cream is about to be launched in half a month. How about Mr. Liu, you sign an order to stock up a bit to sell? Three or five billion, a little is not too little; ten or eight billion, a little is not too much."
Upon hearing this, Liu Haitao became excited immediately.
"Mr. Xue, Assistant Qin, are you playing a duet with me? As soon as you speak, it’s three to five billion, even up to ten or eight billion.
As a friend, as a partner, Shencao Ji has produced a new product, and if you ask me to help out and try to sell it to see if the market opens up, it’s my duty.
To purchase thirty or fifty million worth of products from you, that’s no problem. But starting with three to five billion, aren’t you treating me like a sucker to be slaughtered?"
"If Mr. Liu only wants thirty to fifty million worth of products, Shencao Ji will not provide them, not even a single bottle of Imperial Concubine’s Beauty Cream for you to sell. Our cooperation ends here. As for going to see your friend’s sick child, you’re better off finding someone else more capable."
"Assistant Qin, I’ve always considered you a friend. To cut ties over a single sentence, that’s not a nice way to treat me, is it?"
"You consider me a friend? I hadn’t even finished speaking when you directly refused me. Is that how you treat friends?"
"Brother, continue speaking. I was too hasty just now and didn’t listen to the whole thing."
"If Mr. Liu places an order with Shencao Ji for over ten billion, and if it’s not sold-out within three months, Shencao Ji will buy it back at 10% above the order price."
The condition Qin Feng laid out was basically like giving away money! With the Imperial Concubine’s Beauty Cream, whether it sells well or not, it’s a win.
With such a no-brainer contract in front of you, if you don’t sign, wouldn’t that be foolish?
