Chapter 134 Trap
As soon as the words fell, the woman beside Sikong Shaoyu's eyes moved, charming as spring water, and she agreed with a sweet smile: "Oh? Then the young master should be careful too."
Sikong Shaoyu was slightly moved by the woman's coquettishness, but he quickly suppressed the inexplicable feelings, coldly pinched her chin, and kissed her domineeringly. However, in those eyes, there was indifference and ruthlessness.
Women? Love?
In his eyes, these were nothing more than a show in the mortal world, short-lived and illusory. He, Sikong Shaoyu, never believed in these boring tricks.
only.
The beautiful face of Qiao Qin suddenly flashed through Sikong Shaoyu's mind. He suddenly became curious about what kind of woman Huo Yan was like to be able to fascinate him so much.
He originally planned to use Qiao Qin to make things difficult for Huo Yan, but now he has changed his mind.
The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone through the gap in the curtains, the moment Qiao Qin stepped into the studio, her eyes were attracted by a familiar luxury car - the Lincoln, which was parked quietly in front of the door just like yesterday.
She was stunned for a few seconds, and when she saw Sikong Shaoyu walking out of the car, the doubts in her heart spread like ripples.
"Mr. Sikong? Excuse me, what is this...?"
Sikong Shaoyu elegantly put one hand into his trouser pocket and easily took off his sunglasses from his eyes. His deep peach-like eyes sparkled in the light.
He leaned forward slightly, and with his usual rigor and concentration, he slowly spoke: "Ms. Qiao, there are some details about the design that I didn't explain to you yesterday."
Qiao Qin was slightly stunned, then chuckled and said, "Actually, if there is anything, you can just send a message or ask someone to let me know. You don't have to go there in person."
However, Sikong Shaoyu shook his head gently, his peach blossom eyes flashing with determination: "I attach great importance to this jewelry exhibition, so I must do it myself."
Qiao Qin nodded and said softly, "Okay, I understand what you mean. Let's go into the office and talk about the details."
The two were immersed in a deep conversation, and the morning passed quietly like flowing water.
Qiao Qin unexpectedly realized that she and Young Master Sikong were so compatible. From their favorite works to their design concepts, they had amazing similarities.
Before we knew it, the sun had reached its zenith.
At this moment, a knock on the door broke the silence, and Jia Lulu's arrival woke Qiao Qin up from her dream.
Sikong Shaoyu looked at Qiao Qin, a hint of apology flashed in his eyes, and he raised the corners of his mouth and said, "Miss Qiao, I'm sorry that we have been chatting until now without realizing it. I have taken up your precious time. To express my apology, I will treat you to lunch."
Qiao Qin nodded slightly, politely declining his kindness: "Master Sikong, you are too polite. This is also part of my job. Master Sikong, do you have any questions or details you need to explain?"
"Just call me Shaoyu. I don't have any for now. I look forward to your design drawings." Sikong Shaoyu said a few polite words, then turned and left.
As he walked away, the noise in the office seemed to be blown away by a breeze, returning to its original tranquility.
Qiao Qin gently rubbed her furrowed brows. Although the conversation just now was very relaxed and pleasant, she still needed to re-sort and rethink many details of the design, which was also a big challenge for her.
At this moment, a soft and somewhat tentative voice broke the silence.
"Sister Qiao..."
There was a hint of caution in Jia Lulu's voice, "Do you think... that Sikong Shaoyu, does he have some interest in you?"
Qiao Qin frowned slightly, and a trace of displeasure flashed through her heart.
Her conversations with Sikong Shaoyu were only for work purposes, and she never had any fantasies beyond the scope of work.
She raised her head, her eyes revealing a bit of determination and seriousness: "Lulu, don't talk nonsense. We are just discussing design matters, nothing else."
Seeing this, Jia Lulu nodded quickly, not daring to say anything more. She just quietly told Huo Yan again that Sikong Shaoyu had been there.
After lunch, Qiao Qin returned to the office, but received a text message from Sikong Shaoyu.
[Sorry, I think I accidentally left my watch at your place, can you help me find it? ]
Qiao Qin raised one eyebrow slightly, and her eyes naturally fell on the shining royal blue watch on the sofa. She picked up her phone, quickly took a photo of the watch, and then asked.
[Is this it? I'll have someone deliver it to you?]
However, Sikong Shaoyu's reply was beyond her expectations.
[No, I'll leave it with you first. I'll pass by your studio on my way to work tomorrow and pick it up then.]
Qiao Qin tapped the screen of her phone gently and replied, "[OK.]"
Then she gently placed her phone on the table and continued to devote herself to her busy and fulfilling work, not taking this little thing to heart at all.
However, the development of the situation was beyond Qiao Qin's expectations.
She originally thought it was just an accidental negligence, but she didn't expect that similar "accidents" would quietly wet her peaceful life like continuous drizzle.
Today an exquisite watch is lost, tomorrow the gemstone on the cufflinks disappears quietly, and Sikong Shaoyu appears more and more frequently.
Qiao Qin frowned slightly, and Jia Lulu's joke couldn't help but echo in her mind.
Could it be that Sikong Shaoyu is really interested in her?
But this thought only stayed in her mind for a moment before she denied it.
Qiao Qin smiled self-deprecatingly and put this unrealistic conjecture behind her. As a woman who had already been married and had children, and was even about to get divorced, what was there worth others coveting about her?
however.
What Qiao Qin didn't know was that Huo Yan almost had a fight with Sikong Shaoyu for her, and they were even more tit-for-tat in the business world, and the fight was on the line until one side died.
"Master Sikong, is this action a bit too risky?" A man in a dark suit had beads of sweat on his forehead, and his voice revealed a hint of anxiety that was hard to conceal.
The other man also had a solemn expression, his eyes flickering with anxiety. He spoke in a low voice, "Huo Yan is a fucking lunatic. He is willing to do anything to start a price war with us. If this continues, Longyu Group's business will definitely be seriously affected."
The atmosphere around seemed to be shrouded in an invisible pressure, with tension and anxiety intertwined together, making people almost able to feel the heavy depression.
However, Sikong Shaoyu seemed to be out of the matter. He gently shook the red wine glass in his hand, and the deep red liquid swirled in the glass, reflecting his calm and composed face. He raised his head and drank it all, as if swallowing all the tension and anxiety together.
Putting down the wine glass, Sikong Shaoyu raised a cold smile, his voice as calm as the water in a deep pool: "Panic? What's there to panic about? Isn't Huo Yan's current state exactly what we expected?"
