Contract Marriage: Love Has Finally Arrived

Chapter 48: Chapter 48 Have Qiao Muxue Discuss with Me

Editor: Atlas Studios

“I’ll think about it some more, after all, I’ve just resigned from Starlight, so the loss of these fifty million seems to have little to do with me now. I believe your company will soon find new investors.”

Saying this, Gu Qiangwei confidently smiled and then turned to walk towards the office door.

Upon seeing this, Shen Hua hurriedly spoke up to stop her.

“Gu—” He nearly blurted out Gu Qiangwei’s name, but upon realizing she was Qin Sijue’s wife, he hurriedly corrected himself, “Mrs. Qin!”

At this, Gu Qiangwei paused, turning her head to look at Shen Hua.

The man who had just been posturing as the chairman, Shen Hua, now had no choice but to bow and scrape, wearing a smile as he pleaded, “Mrs. Qin, about the investment, can we discuss it further?”

Gu Qiangwei hesitated for a few seconds, her gaze inadvertently catching Qiao Muxue, “Sure, but let Qiao Muxue discuss it with me, after all, she understands the interests involved here better, doesn’t she?”

Upon hearing this, Shen Hua immediately nodded in agreement, “Yes, yes, I’ll have Muxue talk with you.”

“Uncle, I…”

Qiao Muxue was naturally reluctant. Just a second ago Gu Qiangwei was her subordinate, and the next second she had become the most important investor for the new film. If she went to negotiate, there was no telling how she would be put at a disadvantage, she didn’t want to go at all!

But before she could finish speaking, she was silenced by a look from Shen Hua!

“Let’s talk another day then, for now, I need to pack up and go home!”

Gu Qiangwei smiled, indeed intending to give Qiao Muxue a hard time, who asked her to be so mean in the past, suppressing her at every turn after joining the company just two months prior! Now that she finally had the chance, how could she let her off so easily?

Having dropped the remark, Gu Qiangwei walked straight towards the office door.

Luo Chen followed respectfully behind her.

Watching the two completely disappear from the office doorway, Qiao Muxue dared to speak.

“Uncle, why are you making me discuss this investment matter? Gu Qiangwei has never liked me, if I go, she’ll definitely try to make things difficult for me!”

Qiao Muxue was the future daughter-in-law Shen Hua had his heart set on, and he had quite an appreciation for her, mainly because her work ability was indeed strong.

“Only you can handle this. Precisely because she doesn’t like you, after making things difficult for you, she will surely agree to the investment. So, Muxue, just bear with it for now, ah.”

Upon hearing this, Qiao Muxue was baffled.

So, Uncle Shen was fully aware that she would be put in an uncomfortable position, yet he insisted on her going?

But the unwilling Qiao Muxue couldn’t openly contradict Shen Hua. After all, she was still waiting to become the Young Madam of the Shen Family; she naturally wouldn’t offend her future father-in-law outright!

“Dad, who was that person just now? Why did you seem so wary of him when you heard his name?”

Shen Mochen had been pondering this question the whole time. Why had Qiangwei become someone known as the ‘Young Madam’ in others’ words?

And who exactly was that Mr. Qin?

Shen Hua glanced at his son, “This Gu Qiangwei, you all should not provoke her in the future; her status is absolutely not something you can afford to provoke, and if things get serious, it could even drag our entire Starlight Entertainment into the mess.”

“Uncle, have you been deceived? I remember that Gu Qiangwei isn’t even married, plus she’s just an unwanted girl from the Gu Family. She’s not as terrifying as you say!”

Hearing Qiao Muxue’s words, Shen Hua couldn’t help but frown.

Deceived?

But the name Qin Sijue is little known to the outside world, although he’s been overseas all these years. Surely the assistant, Luo, who accompanies him couldn’t be fake, could he?
