My CEO Baby Daddy Keeps Falling for My Tricks-Chapter 707 - 713 beauty, appears in danger_1

"Why should your expenses be included in mine!" Qin Muchuan countered.

Zhou Ziqing was left at a loss by his cold response, feeling a mixture of fear and shock. "Chuanchuan, you should know why you should be responsible for me, everyone knows that..."

Lin Xiangwan couldn’t understand his behavior either; it all seemed very strange to her.

Was it because he didn’t like Zhou Ziqing anymore?

Suddenly, Qin Muchuan broke into a smile, and his gaze softened on Zhou Ziqing. "Right now, you’re the home tutor my father hired. He said he would cover your living expenses. So, I shouldn’t have to give you money as well, right? That would mean I’m losing out, wouldn’t it?"

The tension in Zhou Ziqing’s heart loosened, and she managed a smile. "Chuanchuan, you scared me just now! I thought you didn’t care about me anymore!"

Any inexplicable emotional surge Lin Xiangwan had felt earlier, dissipated.

The two children were also quite upset.

"I don’t need you to pay for me. It’s better to make things clear!" After finishing her soy milk and sandwich, Lin Xiangwan left a thousand yuan on the table. "Count it, if it’s not enough, come and tell me!"

With that, she left the restaurant.

Qin Muchuan’s gaze naturally followed her. Without saying much, he pulled out three thousand yuan and threw it on the table. "For me and the two children..."

"Chuanchuan, we don’t need to take this money!" Grandma Qin hurriedly said.

Qin Muchuan quickly responded. "It’s okay, like Wanwan said, considering the quality of food and amenities we’re using here, they are definitely of a five-star level. The amount we are paying is already quite cheap!"

"Ah..."

Grandma Qin suddenly felt very lost. What on earth was happening with her grandson?

All she was doing was trying to give him a better choice, better decision-making opportunities.

If he has already fallen for Miss Zhou, why is he still so protective of Wanwan?

Qin Muchuan thought to himself: His grandparents were quite the characters, not helpful in the slightest. Already having enough on his plate, he wondered why they were adding to his problems instead of helping him make amends with such a good woman.

Zhou Ziqing looked at Qin Muchuan. "Chuanchuan, shouldn’t the bank be unfreezing your funds today?"

Qin Gang also asked, "Yeah, have you made contact with the bank yet? What did they say?"

The look on Qin Muchuan’s face immediately turned sorrowful. "The bank seems to have only approved a portion of the funds..."

"Exactly how much can they give us?" Qin Gang asked.

"Temporarily, it seems like about 2 billion!" Qin Muchuan replied with a sigh.

"2 billion? The construction in Xicheng requires 2.1 billion right away. Where are we going to get that additional 100 million?" Qin Gang asked, flustered.

If the funds aren’t adequate, even if they manage to get by this time, they will face the same issue again! ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

Qin Muchuan didn’t want to continue discussing the matter. "Let’s just infuse some funds into it for now, we’ll figure out the rest later!"

"Figure out later? How so? We’ve already been on hold for so long!"

"Like I said, let’s take it step by step. These 2 billion should at least last us a day or two, right?"

"Yes, but just a day or two!" Qin Gang replied with a frustrated sigh.

Zhou Ziqing was especially attentive that day and visited Qin Muchuan’s office in the morning.

Seeing her suddenly at his office, Qin Muchuan reacted with surprise. "What brings you here? Didn’t you say you had work to do at the company today?"

Zhou Ziqing nodded, looking at him with concern. "Yes, I’m organizing Dior’s spring fashion week. But I can delegate most of the tasks, I just need to check in later!"

"Mm!" Qin Muchuan nodded, then, looking particularly frustrated, he picked up a bottle of red wine and two wine glasses. "Care to join me for a drink?"

"Sure!"

Zhou Ziqing reached for the wine and filled up two glasses. "Here’s to your future success!"

After a forced smile, Qin Muchuan clinked glasses with her.

"How did things go today? Any good news?" Zhou Ziqing asked, concern in her voice.

"No good news, just a bunch of bad ones. The state-owned projects have been approved, but the funds have not been transacted yet. The West City project, the environmental pollution system, and the cotton textile division – all require funding..."

"With all these needs, what can we do?" Zhou Ziqing asked hurriedly.

Qin Muchuan massaged his temples. "I don’t know, but this isn’t even the crux of the issue. Anyways, some funds will be available in the next couple of days."

"That’s good!" Zhou Ziqing seemed relieved.

"What worries me the most is the cotton textiles division!" Qin Muchuan mentioned with concern.

Zhou Ziqing seemed puzzled. "The Burma side isn’t Huatai’s main project anyway, right? If it’s not successful, why not just write it off?"

"That’s where you’re wrong!" Qin Muchuan shook his head. "Huatai was built on the cotton textiles business, which was indeed the most lucrative industry at the time!"

Lin Xiangwan nodded. "Yes, during that time, our country was suffering from resource scarcity, especially in the cotton textile industry..."

"Exactly, even though now it may not be the most profitable sector, and our labor costs keep rising. Whether we continue in this industry in the future is uncertain. But currently, as Huatai is facing difficulties, any problems with the cotton textiles sector would significantly reduce the confidence of shareholders and employees alike. Therefore, I cannot give up on it......"

"I see. In that case, it definitely needs to continue!"

Qin Muchuan smiled. "Keep it going? But how? There is no funding available, two foreign manufacturers are rushing us for delivery, we can’t even provide the cotton, what do we do?"

As he finished speaking, he lifted up his arm and forcefully hit the wall a few times. "Damn it, this time, I am really stuck between a rock and a hard place!"

"How much funds do you need? By when should we deliver,?" Zhou Ziqing asked.

"By the 5th of next month, we have to deliver the goods. If we don’t meet the deadline, the company will have to pay a hefty penalty!" Qin Muchuan expressed his deep frustration.

Zhou Ziqing thought for a bit. "I have an idea, I don’t know whether I should say it or not!"

"What is it?" Qin Muchuan looked at her.

"I’m in the garment business, right? So, I do have contacts with some small textile factories! How about we get our supplies from them and deliver to the foreign manufacturers?"

Qin Muchuan pondered over it. "That is indeed a good idea. But you knowing these small factories, do you know if the canvas they produce is of good quality?"

"It’s pretty good. They can customize according to your requirements!"

"What about processing fees and cost? How much money will it need?" Qin Muchuan asked.

"Let me check on that....." Zhou Ziqing took out her cell phone.

"Mm!" Qin Muchuan added, quite focused on the matter. "At the same time, we need to find out how much they can produce by the 5th!"

"Okay!"
