Rebirth of the Villainous Female Boss-Chapter 756 - 730: Have You Fallen In Love With Me?
Chapter 756: Chapter 730: Have You Fallen In Love With Me?
Yu Minglang and Yan Yu had just returned to Xiao Qian’s house and closed the door when they heard a knock. Yu Minglang quickly entered Xiao Qian’s room with Yan Yu, signaling for Xiao Qian to open the door.
“What’s up?” Xiao Qian asked Aka, who was standing outside the door.
“I heard a loud noise in your house when I was trying to sleep, so I came over to check on you guys. Are you alright?” Aka seemed fine, asking with a grin.
“It’s fine. That was a noise-maker my sister bought. She just broke up with her ex-boyfriend today and wanted to get revenge on that scumbag, so she bought this thing to put next to her ex’s house. She just tried it out and it was louder than expected, sorry to have disturbed your sleep.”
Aka’s mouth twitched, “No problem, as long as you’re okay. Well, see you at school tomorrow. Get some rest early.”
“Good night.”
...
Back in the bedroom, Xiao Qian wrote a note to Yu Minglang: She could hear me speaking, not like tinnitus.
Yu Minglang smirked, he understood sign language and the spy-grade person next door must know it too. That Yellow Hair was too cunning, deliberately knocking on the door to show Xiao Qian that her hearing wasn’t impaired.
When Aka returned to her room, the first thing she did was scan the seemingly messy arrangement of her room with her eyes. Although her room was messy, she remembered the position of every piece of clutter on the floor. If anyone entered, she would be able to detect it right away. No one had touched anything in her room, so Aka remained vigilant and checked her bedroom door, where the strand of hair was still in place.
Phew, that was a close call. It was just a false alarm.
Aka patted her chest, sent a message to her boss, reporting Xiao Qian’s schedule for the day, emphasizing that Xiao Qian was safe. Oh, right.
Aka glanced at the auction catalogue on her desk and added, “I heard that she seems to like Zheng Banqiao’s works. Boss, aren’t you going to the auction too? You can buy one for her, and she will be really happy.”
After doing all this, Aka finally lay down on her bed, rubbing her ringing ears.
She almost went deaf, and her ears were still ringing. Good thing she knew sign language, or she would have been caught using eavesdropping equipment!
Yu Minglang sent Yan Yu back, and then sat on the bed texting. In that few dozens of seconds earlier, he not only confirmed that Aka from across the hallway was spying on Xiao Qian, he also saw the album. His intuition told him that the album was useful, and he needed someone to investigate the auction-related matters, as there might be information he needed in there.
Although Yu Minglang suspected that the person across the hallway might be sent by Old Mai, his cautious intuition still prompted him to add a sentence when sending the text.
Send me the list of attendees for the auction held in America at the end of the month.
Xiao Qian had put a warm patch on her belly and was lying on the bed, stealthily reaching for the cold bottled water by her bed. Yu Minglang, staring at his phone waiting for a reply, still sensed the sneaky woman on her period and promptly took the water back to the fridge. Xiao Qian heard him seemingly boiling water outside.
Men who insist on drinking warm water are so annoying…
As he was fussing with the water outside, Xiao Qian’s phone rang, and she casually opened a list of names inside.
She vaguely remembered the sender as one of Yu Minglang’s classmates, who was now working in the Imperial Capital and was well-informed about such matters. Little Qiang was very busy with work, but he had a network of contacts that Xiao Qian admired.
Yu Minglang came back with the prepared brown sugar water, “Is he there?”
“No… it seems that most of them are Chinese.” Xiao Qian did not see anyone from Old Mai’s side, because their names were ridiculously long in pinyin.
“He might not be there but has sent someone else instead. I’ll go back and investigate their backgrounds more carefully. Come on, drink the sugar water.”
“I don’t want to drink… it’s so hard to swallow. By the way, I saw a familiar name.”
“Who?”
“That Doctoral Supervisor my teacher asked me to apply for. You can recognize his name easily because it’s in pinyin.”
“It’s just a coincidence. Don’t think I’ll forget the main issue by shifting the topic. Hurry up and drink the sugar water!”
“… Straight men are so scary. Why do we have to drink this stuff? Foreign women can even go running and swimming with an internal tampon when they have their periods.”
“If you want to keep up with foreigners, shall we wash each other’s guns now?”
Xiao Qian choked. Has he been watching too much European and American stuff?

When her period came, she didn’t want to do anything, just lie at home like a wooden doll. Unfortunately, Xiao Qian had a group meeting in the morning. Yu Minglang sent her to school and then went to study the auction list.
As usual, Xiao Qian sat right next to the big boss, followed by Lu Xiaocha, who thought she had a good relationship with Xiao Qian. The big boss hadn’t arrived yet, and Xiao Qian saw Yellow Hair Aka sitting closest to the door.
“When did we get more people in our group?” Xiao Qian asked Lu Xiaocha. She’d been busy cleaning up after family matters for a few days and hadn’t attended a group meeting. She knew Aka was an exchange student at their school but didn’t know she was in their group.
“It was last time. Boss Qian, you didn’t know? We don’t know how this foreigner called Aka made her way into our group. The big boss criticized her really badly last time, saying she’s not even as good as a freshman. Is our school really this lenient towards foreigners?”
Lu Xiaocha was a bit jealous; why did domestic students have to compete with so many others and suffer, while foreigners just came waltzing in.
Xiao Qian twirled the pen in her hand, her eyes on Yellow Hair. That girl had been scheming to get close to her, just for Old Mai to chase her? If Old Mai just wanted to insert an informant next to her, it seems unnecessary and excessive.
Now that she already had a hunch about Old Mai’s line and that Yellow Hair was problematic, which Yu Minglang also noticed, the current issue was whether Yellow Hair was actually in cahoots with Old Mai or not.
After Yu Minglang investigated Yellow Hair’s home, Xiao Qian now felt full of malice when looking at Yellow Hair again.
Aka noticed Xiao Qian looking at her and gave her a pleasing smile, but Xiao Qian turned her head away coldly, leaving Aka out in the cold.
La Juhua, the senior sitting next to Aka, had a grudge with Xiao Qian and deliberately moved closer to Aka to practice her oral English with the foreigner. However, La Juhua was bound for disappointment, as Aka’s Chinese was already fluent enough to speak dialects, and no one had ever heard her speak a foreign language.
“That’s our group’s famous ice beauty, Boss Qian. Do you find her very cold?” La Juhua said to Aka.
Aka flashed her teeth in a brilliant smile, but Xiao Qian wouldn’t even spare her a glance.
This made Aka a little annoyed.
Wasn’t friendship between girls supposed to develop like this?
