After ONS: Trapped by the Cunning Professor-Chapter 446 - 447: I Must Fatten You Up

After finishing the call with Shen Youran, Qin Mobai dialed Su Lin’s number.

Upon hearing his own president’s voice, Su Lin’s heart relaxed. Wasn’t it because Lu Li was busy with Bai Lu that he hadn’t informed him he’d found Qin Mobai!

"President Qin, it’s good you’re okay; otherwise, I wouldn’t know what to do. I’ve been with you for so many years..."

"Alright, I’m not dead yet!" Qin Mobai interrupted Su Lin, "How’s the situation there?"

"President Fu has already dealt a small blow to Xi Siwei. His company is facing some troubles and won’t act recklessly for now."

Qin Mobai understood that even a small blow from Fu Sinian was enough to keep Xi Siwei obedient for a while. So, really, anyone should avoid provoking Qin Mobai—he has ways of making those he dislikes suffer, even if that person is his cousin.

"However, President Qin, I’ve recently heard some rumors."

Qin Mobai and Lou Xi hadn’t been out for long, and rumors had already started?

"Speak."

"Miss Shen is getting close with Xi Siwei. It’s said your aunt is trying to match them up."

"Shen Ruozhuo and Xi Siwei?" Qin Mobai thought about this pairing and frowned slightly, "Does Xi Siwei think marrying into the Shen Family will allow him to take over the Qin Family?"

"That’s exactly what people think!" Su Lin said, "No one would exclude a strong marriage alliance, and if Xi Siwei truly teams up with the Shen side... Of course, I’m not saying that President Lou’s wife’s background couldn’t help you at all, but if you had then..."

"Su Lin, I don’t want to hear those kinds of words again." Qin Mobai’s tone became solemn, "I won’t avoid marrying Lou Xi just because she’s not from a wealthy family, nor will I love her any more because she is. Considering you’ve worked for me for so many years, I won’t hold you accountable." 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Otherwise, by Qin Mobai’s nature, Su Lin would have to be fired.

"Yes, I understand."

"Alright, if there’s anything, I’ll call you again."

...

Outside the ward, Lou Xi carried a tray with a bowl of steaming tomato and egg noodles. She had heard everything Qin Mobai and Su Lin had just said.

Shen Ruozhuo wants to be with Xi Siwei? After a wealthy marriage alliance, it could become the strongest weapon against Qin Mobai?

Because she came from an ordinary background, she couldn’t be a strong support for Qin Mobai?

If she were a wealthy heiress, if her family had vast riches and power, could she help Qin Mobai then?

She didn’t actually come from a poor family. Her mother was Shen Youran, and Shen Youran is now the wife of the chairman of such a large hotel, she’s the chairman’s daughter.

With this identity, could she then help Qin Mobai?

"Lou Xi?" Qin Mobai’s voice came from inside the ward, pulling Lou Xi’s thoughts back.

Lou Xi collected her emotions and pushed the door open to enter.

"The noodles are ready." Lou Xi placed the noodles on the small tray, the kind that fits on the bed.

"Just one bowl?" Qin Mobai spoke to Lou Xi naturally, as if nothing had happened moments ago.

"Is it not enough? If not, I’ll cook more."

"It’s enough, come over and eat with me." Qin Mobai pulled Lou Xi over to sit next to him, "I have to feed you until you’re chubby and white."

"Young Master Qin, I will find time to talk to Ms. Shen properly, don’t worry."

"Good child, just think it through. I don’t want you to have regrets, understand?"

Lou Xi looked at Qin Mobai’s beautiful eyes and made a silent decision in her heart.

He loves her so much; she must do something to repay his love.
