Chapter 121 Being Jealous of Oneself
"Mmmm!"
Qin Yu took the ointment and walked over to Yan Mingyu's side.
From this angle, he could see her tall, proud nose and her charming, cherry-like mouth forming a lovely curve.
A few buttons of her shirt were undone, revealing a glimpse of her fair décolletage.
This is his own wife, after all!
After his heart fluttered for a moment, Qin Yu steadied his mind, scooped out some of the ointment with his finger, and gently applied it to the burn on Yan Mingyu's skin.
Perhaps it was because he was so close, Qin Yu's bright and shiny gaze made her feel somewhat unnatural.
She had no choice but to slowly close her eyes to avoid the awkwardness.
"Director Yan, how did you get burned?"
Qin Yu tried to start a conversation. Otherwise, he feared he might not be able to resist leaning in to kiss Yan Mingyu's moist and bewitching lips.
"Mmm... learning to make breakfast!"
Yan Mingyu's red lips parted slightly, her pretty face blushing a little, seemingly embarrassed.
"For whom?"
Qin Yu, as if possessed, asked a question.
Hearing it from Grandpa Yan was one thing, but it would definitely be different coming from Yan Mingyu, the ice queen goddess.
"My husband!"
Yan Mingyu's face turned even redder.
"I'm so envious of him!"
Qin Yu felt a pang of jealousy; his ancestors must be smoking green in their graves for him to be able to marry such a perfect woman as Yan Mingyu.
To cast aside her pride as a multi-billionaire CEO and make breakfast for a man!
"Xiaoxiao also went into the kitchen to make something for you, didn't she?"
Yan Mingyu mentioned casually.
That's why, by a strange coincidence, both goddesses were in the kitchen that morning and got injured to varying degrees.
Last night, they had agreed on WeChat that they'd make breakfast for the man each of them "loved"!
"Uh... you're making it for your husband, Xiaoxiao... made it for me... what does that mean?"
Qin Yu's mind struggled to grasp the situation.
"Don't you really understand? Xiaoxiao likes you. These past few days, she has been asking me for advice on how to pursue you!"
Yan Mingyu opened her eyes, deciding to reveal her best friend's feelings for him.
"What?"
Qin Yu was stunned.
It wasn't so much the revelation that Liu Xiaoxiao liked him that shocked him, but rather that Yan Mingyu was actually helping her pursue him.
How could there be such a wife in the world?
"Actually, Xiaoxiao is quite straightforward by nature. Deep down, she is very innocent and conservative. If possible, maybe you two could try getting to know each other better!"
Yan Mingyu was still speaking well of her best friend.
"Uh..."
Qin Yu, with a face full of speechlessness, didn't know what to say.
In the end, he could only sheepishly say, "I already have someone I like!"
"Then you should make it clear to Xiaoxiao sooner rather than later, don't hurt her! I don't have many best friends, just her!"
Yan Mingyu spoke earnestly.
"Yeah, I know!"
Qin Yu nodded, covered the remaining ointment after applying it, and said, "After applying it a couple more times, it should be okay. Grandpa said it won't leave a scar!"
"Please thank Grandpa Qin for me!"
Yan Mingyu straightened up, clearly feeling the cool relief on the burned area, which was very comfortable.
"It's nothing... I'll be heading to the information department now!"
Qin Yu waved his hand.
"Okay..." Find adventures at empire
Yan Mingyu finished speaking and seemed to think of something. Her gaze fell on Qin Yu: "Are you free at noon?"
"Yes!"
Qin Yu said with certainty.
"Come with me to a place!"
"Sure!"n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
After agreeing, Qin Yu closed the door and headed to the IT department.
Two computer experts, with no sense of style, were teaching a secretary in black stockings how to play games, while munching on chips and sipping on coke.
It was as if they had turned the office into an internet café.
"Hehe, Brother Yu!"
Seeing Qin Yu come in, the two computer experts took off their headsets.
"Assistant Qin, I'll go out first then!"
The beautiful secretary knew that Qin Yu wouldn't come by without a reason, so she tactfully left the office.
"Have you made any progress on what I asked you to check?"
Qin Yu got straight to the point.
"No!"
The two computer experts shook their heads in unison.
"Can't find anything, or haven't looked?"
Qin Yu asked with a frown.
"Brother Yu, I wrote a small program, scanned the photos from the post into it, and then performed a big data comparison, but so far, no results!"
Chen Mo spread his hands.
"Yeah, Brother Yu, don't worry, there are so many people in Hua Country. Even for a computer, it takes some time!"
Luo Zheng added.
"Alright, call me directly when there's any progress! Oh, and Chen Mo, the app you installed for President Yan doesn't have any other functions, right?"
Qin Yu's gaze was sharp as he stared at Chen Mo. If this guy used the app to peep on Yan Mingyu taking a shower or changing, he'd gouge his eyes out.
"Brother Yu, what are you implying? I, Chen Mo, might be a lecher, but I wouldn't dare to cross President Yan like that!"
Chen Mo said, somewhat aggrieved.
"Hmm, just asking,"
Qin Yu took back his gaze without saying more and left the two computer experts' office.
Seeing it was still early, he took a taxi to the hospital to have the medicine his grandfather gave him boiled for his father to drink.
Just as he arrived in the corridor, he saw Zhou Cuiping coming out of the doctor's office.
When Zhou Cuiping saw Qin Yu, the smile on her face suddenly disappeared, and she said in a mocking tone, "Oh, the dutiful son has arrived!"
"They say 'raise a son to take care of you in old age.' My dad's old now, so it's time for me, his son, to take care of him!"
Qin Yu said indifferently.
"Heh... words are prettier than songs, aren't they? What are you scheming – I don't know? Let me tell you, even though your dad makes a decent salary working out there every month, the household expenses have been so high these years, there's only a few thousand left. You better just keep being a security guard honestly and stop eyeing your dad's money!"
Zhou Cuiping said coldly with hands on her hips.
"Who's eyeing my dad's money knows very well themselves!"
Qin Yu spoke and no longer paid attention to Zhou Cuiping, heading towards Qin Jianjun's sickroom.
"Hmph... The money is in my hands, don't even think about getting a penny!"
Zhou Cuiping muttered under her breath before leaving the hospital to call her daughter, who was out with her grandson at the amusement park: "Nannan, I asked the doctor, Old Qin has a stomach ulcer for now, it's not confirmed to be cancer!"
"So... Old Qin isn't going to die yet?"
Zhou Nannan sounded displeased. If Old Qin didn't die, how could she brazenly ask for the two hundred thousand?
"Oh my silly daughter, cancer isn't so easily detected. Let him struggle for now. His son is keeping him company and running errands; it's most likely he will seek further check-ups at a big hospital, and it's not our money being spent!"
Zhou Cuiping looked shrewd.
"Mom... what if Old Qin's son finds out that we've moved Old Qin's money? Won't he come after us?"
Zhou Nannan was a bit uneasy.
"Come after us? Am I afraid of a little security guard? He might look decent enough, but he's a nobody, only fit to guard doors! Let's drop this subject. Have you contacted that old classmate of yours, any news?"
Zhou Cuiping didn't take Qin Yu seriously at all.
"I got in touch with him, but his dad has gone on a trip and won't be back for a few days. Once he's back, I'll arrange a meeting for you two. By the way, Mom, do you know about Four Seas Corporation? My classmate is a manager at a branch office, and he even said he could get me a position there!"
Zhou Nannan said excitedly.
