Bing Tianyi listened and then said seriously, "This person is named Ouyang Tian, he is the father of my classmate. However, I have only met him once, so I am not clear about his specific identity."
"Is this the reason you mentioned last night for wanting to eliminate those seven people?" Old Huang continued to ask.
Bing Tianyi did not nod or shake his head; he simply changed the subject with a smile, saying, "Alright, let's talk about something else."
Bing Tianyi understood that although Old Huang was currently working by his side and was also his personal bodyguard, he often felt that Old Huang was somewhat strange. Moreover, to be a qualified leader, if others cannot sense the mystery surrounding you, it is likely that you will invite unnecessary trouble.
Seeing Bing Tianyi's response, Old Huang was too lazy to ask further questions. After all, these people were here to assassinate Bing Tianyi and not to deal with him; there was no need for him to be overly curious.
In Old Huang's view, having such a combat situation where he could showcase his skills was already satisfying enough.
Upon returning to the company, Bing Tianyi fell asleep at his desk. He slept for a full three hours when Murong Qing knocked on the door and entered.
Opening the door, Murong Qing looked at Bing Tianyi and quietly asked, "President Bing, do you have a moment?"
Bing Tianyi nodded, rubbing his sleepy eyes and curiously asking, "Is there something going on?"
Since Murong Qing joined the company, she had been busy every day. After all, the company had just started, and this was her first job; she relied on self-exploration and learning from the computer.
Now that the company's situation had stabilized and more personnel were being recruited, she naturally had more personal time.
"There's nothing much; this afternoon I would like to invite you to dinner," Murong Qing said somewhat shyly.
If it were someone else, they would probably be overjoyed by this invitation. However, Bing Tianyi seemed a bit slow on the uptake; upon hearing this, he showed a helpless smile and looked at Murong Qing saying, "You want to treat me to dinner? Are you joking?"
"Why? Does President Bing not want to?" Murong Qing asked softly with slightly furrowed brows.
Bing Tianyi smiled and shook his head, saying, "Of course not. How about this: the company's situation has stabilized quite a bit recently, so we'll take a two-hour break this afternoon. I've booked a dinner for all the leaders at Golden Flower; I'll treat everyone to a meal."
Murong Qing, standing in front of Bing Tianyi, was left speechless. Was this guy really that oblivious? Couldn't he see her intentions?
"Then forget it," Murong Qing said, a hint of disappointment crossing her face as she turned and walked out of Bing Tianyi's office.
Bing Tianyi was curious, wondering what was wrong with the girl. Helplessly, he smiled wryly and then got up to find Mo Yonggang to arrange the dinner.
In the afternoon, the leaders of Bing Tianyi's company gathered at Golden Flower Hotel. The lively scene made Bing Tianyi feel very happy.
To be honest, ever since Chen Qian passed away, Bing Tianyi hadn't felt this happy in a long time. However, the only thing that disappointed him was that he didn't see Murong Qing at the entire dinner.
After eight o'clock in the evening, as the drinking session ended, Bing Tianyi stumbled out. Since Old Huang had drunk too much, Bing Tianyi had no choice but to take a taxi home.
Halfway there, Bing Tianyi changed his route. To be honest, ever since the company's business got back on track, he had completely forgotten how long it had been since he visited Dumpling Shop.
However, when he arrived at his Dumpling Shop's entrance, he found that the shop had already closed.
Bing Tianyi got out of the car and smiled at the shop door. He looked up at the third floor and was surprised to see that Fang Qing's lights were still on. A smile crept onto his lips as he walked toward Fang Qing's home.
When he reached the door, Bing Tianyi was taken aback; just as he stood still and was about to ring the doorbell, Fang Qing opened the door directly.
Their eyes met, and Bing Tianyi hesitated to speak.
Fang Qing smiled sincerely at him and softly said, "Come in."
Bing Tianyi nodded and stepped inside, changing into slippers. It felt as if he had come home.
Sitting on the sofa, Fang Qing didn't say much. She went straight to the kitchen and prepared a bowl of sour soup for Bing Tianyi, bringing it out and placing it on the table while smiling at him. "Drink this; it'll help you sober up."
Bing Tianyi nodded, took a sip, and shivered all over, unable to help but ask curiously, "What on earth is this?"
"Apple cider vinegar, along with some rock sugar and citric acid," Fang Qing said with a laugh as she noticed the strange expression on Bing Tianyi's face.
"I thought it was so sour. But it's actually quite good," Bing Tianyi replied, taking another sip.
Fang Qing was wearing a thin nightgown, and Bing Tianyi could easily see her fair skin and graceful figure through the fabric, which made him daydream a bit.
Ever since they had shared a bed last time, Fang Qing had been thinking about Bing Tianyi's strong arms and masculine aura every night, making her feel somewhat unable to resist.
Without much thought, Fang Qing leaned slowly against Bing Tianyi and smiled as she asked, "What happened today? Why did you drink so much?"
"Nothing much, I just gathered some employees from my company for a meal," Bing Tianyi said candidly with a smile.
Fang Qing nodded. Bing Tianyi stretched lazily and took the opportunity to pull Fang Qing into his arms. He murmured, "Actually, I hadn't even thought about treating our employees to dinner. This afternoon, our financial director mentioned wanting to take me out for a meal. It was then that I realized that the company has been running smoothly for quite some time now, and I really hadn't sat down with my subordinates for a good chat. So I arranged the dinner and invited them all. The only regret is that the financial director who wanted to treat me didn't show up."
Hearing this from Bing Tianyi, Fang Qing became curious. Leaning on his shoulder, she asked playfully, "That financial director is a woman, right?"
"Yes, Murong Qing. She just graduated from university," Bing Tianyi replied honestly with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Fang Qing couldn't help but laugh again. She slowly sat up straight and looked at Bing Tianyi with an amused expression. "I don't know how to describe you, kid. If I say you're naive, you're already married at such a young age. If I say you're not naive, how can you not understand this?"
Faced with Fang Qing's words, Bing Tianyi became even more curious and frowned as he asked her, "What do you mean by that? Does she want to express something to me?"
"The girl has started to pursue you actively, yet you didn't invite her alone but instead invited all your employees. Haha, you really crack me up," Fang Qing said as she burst into laughter.
It was at that moment that Bing Tianyi finally realized what she meant and thought to himself: Could it be that he had been too dazed during lunch? But then again, Murong Qing rarely spoke to him before. Besides, Murong Qing was close friends with Chen Qian; how could she possibly like him?
"Impossible. Definitely impossible," Bing Tianyi murmured after pondering for a moment.
Fang Qing leaned back on the sofa, smiling. Seeing Bing Tianyi's reaction, she immediately said, "You don't believe me, do you? If you don't believe it, just call her now to confirm."
"How do I confirm? Should I just call and ask her if she likes me?" Bing Tianyi teased as he looked at the alluring Fang Qing.
Fang Qing chuckled and sighed, "Oh... You say your IQ is pretty high, but how come your emotional intelligence is so low? Did you spend your last life as a bachelor and now don’t know how to pursue a girl?"
Hearing Fang Qing's words, Bing Tianyi laughed outright, "This time you guessed right. I really was a lifelong bachelor in my past life, and I ended up committing suicide because of chasing women."
"Don't joke around; I was just kidding." Fang Qing noticed Bing Tianyi was serious and swallowed hard, her expression becoming slightly more serious as she whispered with a smile.
Bing Tianyi then realized he had inadvertently revealed something from his past. However, he reacted quickly; after hearing Fang Qing's words, he promptly changed his tone and laughed, "So you thought I was serious?"
"After you get through to her, ask her why she didn't come today first. Then I'll tell you what else to ask," Fang Qing advised Bing Tianyi in a low voice.
Bing Tianyi pondered for a few seconds. Since it was still early and there wasn't much to do before bedtime, he decided to go ahead and make the call. With that thought in mind, he dialed the number while whispering to Fang Qing beside him, "Keep your voice down when you talk."
"Don't worry; she definitely won't hear us," Fang Qing replied confidently.
After dialing the number, it took a while before Murong Qing picked up the phone.
"Hello, are you resting?" Bing Tianyi asked.
"Not yet. President Bing, is there something you need?" Murong Qing's tone was noticeably stiff as she directly questioned Bing Tianyi.
Bing Tianyi chuckled awkwardly and said, "Actually, it's nothing much. I just wanted to ask why you didn't come for dinner today."
It would have been fine if he hadn't brought it up, but now that Bing Tianyi mentioned it, Murong Qing sounded quite displeased on the other end of the line as she said, "Didn't you invite those leaders from our company? You didn't invite me, did you? Why should I come?"
Fang Qing listened to their conversation from the side and couldn't help but laugh uncontrollably.
Bing Tianyi glanced at Fang Qing with an innocent expression and helplessly said, "But you are also a leader in our company, right?"
"Alright, if you have nothing else, I'm hanging up," Murong Qing said directly.
Bing Tianyi quickly cast an expectant look at Fang Qing, who wrote on the prepared paper: "I'm sorry, did I do something wrong?"
According to Fang Qing's words, after Bing Tianyi spoke, Murong Qing coldly laughed on the phone and said, "You don't know? You must not be thinking straight."
Just think about it: an employee speaking like this to their leader could only mean two things—either they don't want to work anymore or there is some special relationship between them and the boss. I believe everyone understands this without needing too much explanation.
After hearing this, Fang Qing quickly wrote: "I usually don't think much; can you remind me where I went wrong?"
Murong Qing hesitated for a moment and then said, "Alright, how about I treat you to dinner tomorrow afternoon? Are you coming?"
"Sure!" After seeing that word on the paper, Bing Tianyi immediately spoke up.
"Great, then let's not miss each other," Murong Qing said, her tone noticeably happier. After saying this, she hung up.
Hearing the beeping sound on the phone, Bing Tianyi turned to Fang Qing with a helpless look and asked, "Could it really be that she has feelings for me?"
Fang Qing leaned back on the sofa and smiled at Bing Tianyi, saying, "Alright, you can secretly enjoy this tonight."
