Chapter 787: Peerlessly Rare

Editor: Henyee Translations

As she watched the scenery outside the car window quickly pa.s.s by, Murong Qiao heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she took out her phone and sent a message to Luo Wanbai, asking her to watch the situation first and inform her in time if anything happened.

After all, Luo Wanbai had always been in charge of the project and cooperation with Jiang Weiyang. After Murong Qiao took over this matter, she couldn’t do it herself, so she still had to take over many details.

“I’m sorry, I might have disrupted your plan today. Also, thank you for giving me a ride.” Murong Qiao sent a few messages to Luo Wanbai and looked up at Cen Qianmo opposite her.

Regardless of whether he was really dropping her off along the way, she had to say these words. Murong Qiao knew her limits.

“It’s fine.” Cen Qianmo only shook his head, his tone a little faint.

Although he looked so calm on the surface, in reality, after Murong Qiao sat in, Cen Qianmo took out his phone without changing his expression and sent a message to Han Ling, who was waiting for him, saying that he was going to be late.

After sending the message, he turned off his cell phone and placed it on the other side, not caring about the other party’s reply at all.

The atmosphere in the car gradually quietened down. Murong Qiao looked at her phone from time to time. Chen Qianmo restrained himself and said nothing politely, but his eyes drooped and he didn’t reveal his thoughts, but there were burning emotions hidden in his chest.

“Speaking of which, although our company has been in the country for a period of time, we haven’t found a suitable endors.e.m.e.nt partner. Perhaps we can cooperate with your company when we have the chance.” Cen Qianmo was silent for a long time, but this was all he said.

He wanted to rack his brains to find some topics to talk about, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was not appropriate. In the end, he could only discuss the possibility of the two of them working together in the future.

Murong Qiao was stunned for a moment before she reacted. She nodded happily and smiled.

“Of course you’re welcome to cooperate. If it’s Mr. Cen’s company s technological products, I think we might be the ones who are taking advantage of you,” she replied half-jokingly.

Murong Qiao’s words were not unreasonable. According to the industry and products that Cen Qianmo was involved with now, most of them were high-end technological imports. The level of detail and demand were also the highest.

Rather than saying that they lacked endors.e.m.e.nts, it was more accurate to say that they could give the endors.e.m.e.nts to whoever they wanted. There was no need to worry about the sales at all. If such a good spot were given to their company, Murong Qiao would be quite happy to see it happen.

When Cen Qianmo heard her reply, the corners of his lips curled up

imperceptibly.

That joy was a part of his secret joy that he had hidden.

With the topic of the company’s cooperation, the content of the conversation between the two of them became much smoother, and the two of them were no longer as distant as before. They had even gone further into a longer-term topic.

However, the car reached the destination in the end. The journey to the address Murong Qiao gave only took ten minutes.

The chauffeur sat in front and listened to his usually cold and silent boss. It was rare for him to speak so freely with a girl, so he naturally tried his best to slow down. However, he couldn’t circle this round intersection endlessly. That would be too obvious.

Helpless, the car finally stopped. At the same time, Cen Qianmo felt regretful. “Thank you for bringing me here. I’ll walk the rest of the way myself.” Murong Qiao waved goodbye.

Cen Qianmo didn’t say anything. After responding, he watched as Murong Qiao’s figure gradually shrank into the distance. In the end, she was so small that she couldn’t even be seen clearly. She was so small that she was only a black dot. After she disappeared at the end of the road, he retracted his gaze reluctantly.

From the beginning to the end, the chauffeur sat in his seat and perfectly displayed his airy presence. He didn’t say a word, afraid that he would disturb his boss.

“…Let’s go.” Only when Cen Qianmo spoke did the chauffeur dare to start the car and head in the original direction.

Although Cen Qianmo didn’t say much about Murong Qiao, in the chauffeur s heart, this girl’s ident.i.ty had already changed drastically.

Everyone who worked under Cen Qianmo knew that he was always punctual and even arrived early. He couldn’t tolerate any mistakes in his schedule.

However, seeing how Cen Qianmo took the initiative to let him drive to the side of the road and talk to Murong Qiao today, and even very tolerantly changed his plan, and even brought the other party along on the way and let Murong Qiao arrive first, it was enough to show how different the other party was. Moreover, the place Murong Qiao mentioned was actually in a completely different direction from where Cen Qianmo was going. After a fork in the road, they had to circle around to return to the original place. Compared to before, it took more than an hour.

The chauffeur saw all of this, but he didn’t gossip. Instead, he shut his mouth and drove to his destination. He respectfully opened the car door and watched Cen Qianmo enter the hotel.

Han Ling had been waiting for Cen Qianmo at the restaurant for a long time. It was so long that he had even begun to count the number of ingredients in the dish in boredom. It was so long that his stomach was rumbling. He couldn’t help but eat something to fill his stomach first.

In fact, when he couldn’t even be bothered to look at his watch anymore, he saw the door of the private room beside him slowly push open and a familiar person finally walked in.

“What happened to you? Why are you so late by an hour?” As soon as Han Ling saw him coming, he hooked his arm around his shoulder and asked Cen Qianmo to sit beside him with a cheeky smile. In fact, his mind was filled with curiosity.

Cen Qianmo was not polite at all. After sitting down, he took off his coat and placed it aside. Then, he casually picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth mercilessly, blocking the remaining sounds. His expression was calm.

“Even eating can’t shut you up.”

“I’m just curious!” Han Ling refused to give up and asked after eating the mouthful of meat.

He really wanted to know what could make a obsessive-compulsive person like Cen Qianmo delay for so long before arriving at the dinner.

This was a rare sight in a hundred years.

“You made this bro wait for an hour. Now, you don’t even give me an explanation. I can’t even eat this meal anymore.” Han Ling deliberately sighed and looked at him helplessly.

Cen Qianmo felt a little helpless. “I just gave someone a lift on the way. Don’t let your imagination run wild.”

“On the way?” Han Ling raised his eyebrows. “This ‘on the way’ made you an hour late?”

“I almost thought you were going to stand me up.” He gave the other party a meaningful look.

However, before Cen Qianmo could explain further, Han Ling was slightly stunned. Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, his eyes widened and he suddenly slapped his thigh.

“Is it the girl I saw last time?”

When Han Ling said this and saw that Cen Qianmo didn’t answer him, he immediately knew that he had guessed correctly.

In the end, an expression of ‘as expected’ appeared on his face. He looked at Cen Qianmo meaningfully, as if he had seen through him and wouldn’t expose him.

“Don’t talk nonsense. She has a fiance. I was just helping out,” Cen Qianmo corrected him..
