Divine Doctor and His CEO Wife-Chapter 355: Visitors from the Qinglan Sect

Chen Xiao’s heart skipped a beat, and he laughed, "Of course, I want to stay here with you a little longer."

Qin Lan had already spoken so plainly, if he still didn’t get it, then he would be truly clueless.

"I knew you missed me," Qin Lan said with a flirtatious look, then made a phone call and had her secretary come in to report on the company’s status.

This secretary was one of her confidantes.

She was very tight-lipped.

——

Half an hour later, the secretary finally finished her report and composed herself, "President Qin, I’ve finished my report. I’ll get back to work now."

After speaking, she quickly walked away in her high heels; if you looked closely, you would notice her face was blushing red and her steps a bit unsteady.

Inside the office, Qin Lan threw her torn, damp stockings into the trash bin and just lay in Chen Xiao’s arms, enjoying the moment of tranquility.

"You’re just the same as before, always teasing at the crucial moment. You’re so bad."

"Where do I compare to you, you bad girl? It’s not easy for the poor little secretary." Chen Xiao pinched her cheek, "She was seriously reporting, and you weren’t even listening."

"Is that my fault?" Qin Lan punched him, "It’s your fault!"

Chen Xiao burst out laughing, "Alright, blame me, blame me!"

It’s undeniable that Qin Lan understands him, it truly was an extraordinary experience.

However, it was evident that Qin Lan also gained no less pleasure from the experience; it was as if the heat was melting him, drawing his entire body in with abandon.

After a moment of tenderness, Qin Lan finally said, "Will you accompany me to attend the charity gala tonight?"

"Charity gala?" Chen Xiao was slightly surprised.

"That’s right," Qin Lan said, "Recently, the Jin Family’s new company in the Capital City has settled in Zhonghai and is making a big splash, trying to establish a foothold in Zhonghai. They’ve hosted many banquets, which I’ve refused several times. Yesterday, Jin Ziliang sent someone to deliver an invitation, inviting me to the charity gala."

"This time, it might be a bit hard to refuse, given that the Jin Family has invited several times." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"But if you don’t want me to go, I won’t."

Chen Xiao laughed, "Since they’re so enthusiastic, you might as well go. But... what’s the deal with this Jin Ziliang, and what’s his relation to Jin Zilong?"

He still had a score to settle with Jin Zilong for the attack on Lu Rugao at the airport.

Qin Lan’s eyes flashed with disdain, "Jin Zilong and Jin Ziliang both belong to the direct lineage of the Jin Family, and they’re brothers. Jin Zilong mainly focuses on the Martial Arts World, while Jin Ziliang manages the company, groomed as the heir."

"This guy has some talent, but he’s arrogant and indulgent, indulging in all vices."

"Now, with the Qin Corporation as Zhonghai’s top conglomerate and our family backed by our Ancestor, the Jin Family wants to ally with us, trying to stake a claim in Zhonghai. He’s invited me multiple times privately, but I’ve refused each time."

"You did the right thing refusing. That dog surely has ulterior motives!" Chen Xiao sneered, "What’s the benefit of attending this charity gala?"

Qin Lan smiled, "This guy’s got some skills. He’s managed to invite the heiress of the largest international trading company in the Eagle Country—the Yama Group—to be a guest."

"As you know, Zhonghai is teeming with foreign trade companies, and the Qin Family mainly focuses on foreign trade. If we can connect with them, it’s still a good deal."

Chen Xiao laughed, "So tonight’s charity gala is essentially about connecting with this heiress?"

Qin Lan nodded, "Indeed, most people are going for this. If the Qin Family can establish a deep cooperation with the Yama Group, we stand to gain a lot of profit! That’s why I’m considering attending!"

Chen Xiao nodded, "Then let’s go join the fun, sounds good."

Qin Lan blinked, "Do you have any way to get Miss Mila to collaborate with the Qin Family?"

"I don’t even know her," Chen Xiao pouted, "Am I supposed to rely on my charm to seduce her?"

Qin Lan nodded, "Not a bad idea."

"If Miss Mila is willing to cooperate, I wouldn’t mind lending you to her for a few days."

"Once we become best friends, any cooperation can be discussed."

Chen Xiao: "..."

"I’m not some playboy."

Qin Lan giggled, "You have the capital to be a gigolo, might as well make good use of it. Besides, with a beast like you, not sharing the burden with a few more sisters, you might die on your bed soon."

"I’ve heard foreigners are very open-minded; I don’t want to wear a green hat."

Qin Lan laughed again, "You’re overthinking it. Miss Mila has always had a good reputation, strict upbringing, and religious, very conservative, never had any scandals. She’s the Mila Family’s treasure; not just anyone can approach her."

Chen Xiao perked up, "Really? Let me see a picture!"

Qin Lan smacked him on the head, "I was just kidding, and you took it seriously? Such a flirty guy!"

Chen Xiao chuckled, putting on a selfless look, "If she’s actually good-looking and can help you out, I’m willing to sacrifice my charm, try to woo her."

"Alright, you’ll have the chance tonight." Qin Lan laughed, "Come on, let’s go change."

Chen Xiao nodded; he too felt that this gala had just gotten interesting.

The score to settle with Jin Zilong over attacking Lu Rugao might just start with his brother.

As for flirting with Mila as Qin Lan suggested, it was just a joke between them; he wasn’t that confident in charming every woman he met.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

In the dilapidated mansion of the Ling Family.

A group of Ling Family members knelt on the ground, looking on reverently at the young woman sitting in the center of the Ling Family.

She wore a long white dress, styled like ancient clothes, her face like a peach blossom, her demeanor elegant with a hint of playfulness. Around her waist, a thin red thread cinched her slender waist, accentuating her graceful figure.

The young woman propped her chin on her hand, her willow-leaf brows slightly raised, her clear eyes falling on the Ling Family members, "Speak, how did Brother Ling die?"

Originally, Zhao Xingyu had emerged from her master’s orders to bring back the long-lost Ling Fei. When she arrived in Zhonghai, she found Ling Fei was already dead!

She wasn’t familiar with Ling Fei, volunteering for this mission was mostly an excuse to escape that boring place and experience the bustling world.

She had begged her master for a long time to get this great opportunity!

Instead, she ran into this mess, delaying her time, giving her a headache.

However, since Ling Fei was a disciple of the Qinglan Sect, and had now fallen, she had to give her sect a proper explanation.
