She became a heartthrob among internet celebrities.

Chapter 152 SimplifiedTraditional Chinese

Jiang Lai smiled insincerely and said, "But as your boss, it's easy for people to have illicit thoughts about me accompanying you to a dinner party in such a closed setting."

Qin Yijian put down her pen: "You can rest assured about that. Although it's just a dinner party, it was organized by my sister, and she's the one who asked me to bring you there."

"Then why didn't she tell me herself?"

"You should ask her. I'm just telling you what she said." Qin Yijian didn't understand what her sister was up to either. "You can go out now!"

Jiang Lai turned and left the office.

—Jiang Lai stayed inside for a long time; her plan must be pretty good, right?

—So, in the face of capitalists, no matter what school you go to, you're still far from meeting the passing standard?

—Or perhaps they're being praised for doing a good job?

——Progress bar in danger

Dou Jinlin looked at the screen and said, "It's clear that the expressions of these contestants are pretty good, so the result should be acceptable."

Xia Yang: "Not getting scolded is a victory in itself!"

"However, Jiang Lai was inside for quite a long time."

Lin Yinchuan asked Dou Jinlin, "Can't we find out what they said?"

"Although I was also very curious, because Mr. Qin didn't like this kind of filming, the production team sometimes had to compromise."

—What's so hard to film at work? You've got quite the airs.

—They make millions every minute. What if your camera captures something confidential that you shouldn't be recording?

——Alright, alright, stop arguing.

Jiang Lai returned to her workstation, where she was met with worried looks from her colleagues.

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?" She touched her face. "Is my makeup ruined?"

Xie Zhihui shook her head.

"I can't possibly have chocolate stuck in my teeth!"

"Of course not!" Han Caiwei asked, "Did President Qin scold you?"

"No?"

Xie Zhihui breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good. You were inside for too long. We thought you were scolded by President Qin!"

Jiang Lai smiled and said, "No, I just gave you some pointers on my project proposal. There were quite a few problems."

Shao Yang sighed, "Me too. President Qin said a lot to me. I was in the top five in school, but being criticized here really made me question my life."

"School and the workplace are always different; you have to learn to adapt." Du Heng finished packing his things and asked, "Going home early today?"

"Okay, let's go out to eat together?" Han Caiwei suggested.

—They seem to have a good relationship.

Girls are the world's treasures; you should get close to them.

—Ahhh, it's almost over!!

After get off work, once they return to their dormitories, they are not allowed to take photos unless there are special requests, which means they are free to move around.

Jiang Lai also wanted to go out to eat with her friends, but she couldn't because she had already promised Qin Yijian. Besides, if it was Qin Yifan's invitation and she didn't go, Qin Yifan would throw a tantrum.

Thinking of this, Jiang Lai saw that the camera had been turned off and said, "I have something to do today, so I won't be with you guys! I'll treat you next time, you guys go have fun first today."

Han Caiwei pouted and said regretfully, "What a pity."

Don't worry, there will be other opportunities next time.

"Alright then, what about you guys? Are you going or not?" Han Caiwei asked the other three.

Shao Yang raised his hand, beaming with enthusiasm, "Let's go! Consider it a celebration for completing our first task! Even though it was a bumpy ride, it's still a small step forward!"

Xie Zhihui also raised her hand: "Agreed."

Du Heng then offered his opinion: "I can too."

"Then it's settled!"

The four of them finished packing, said goodbye to Jiang Lai who was still working on the project proposal, and then left the office.

Although Qin Yijian initially said that her project proposal had many shortcomings, Jiang Lai worked hard to fill in the gaps and finally received Qin Yijian's "not bad" evaluation, which made her very happy.

Jiang Lai felt satisfied that her efforts hadn't been in vain. She looked at the computer screen, clicked "save," shut down the computer, stretched, and then picked up her bag to go downstairs.

Perhaps Qin Yijian was afraid of being seen, or perhaps he had other things to do; in any case, he asked Jiang Lai to wait for him in the parking lot.

--the other side.

Qin Yifan arranged the gathering at a private club. The atmosphere there was quite nice, neither as casual and noisy as a KTV nor as quiet and restrictive as a high-end hotel.

The private room offered good privacy, and there wouldn't be any messy things happening there. Overall, Qin Yifan was very satisfied.

"Hey, why did you suddenly decide to organize this gathering? Is it some kind of anniversary?" Tao Zhan asked.

Qin Yifan glanced at the door of the private room, then turned to him and said, "I'm planning to set up my brother and my girlfriends, so I'm organizing a get-together for them to get to know each other better."

Tao Zhan raised an eyebrow and hooked her arm around her neck: "You're really something, aren't you? You're clearly going against that Li family member?"

"How can I not!"

"They've been chasing after your brother for so many years, don't tell me you didn't know."

"That would require my brother to even notice her!" Qin Yijian rolled her eyes dismissively. "She has a terrible temper, knows nothing but spending money, and is just average-looking. It would be a miracle if my brother even liked her."

"They're clearly planning a marriage alliance, so knowing so many things is useless."

"Anyway, she's nowhere near as good as my girlfriends."

Tao Zhan asked with great interest, "Which sister are you referring to? One of our friends?"

"What circle or not, she's just a girlfriend I know." Qin Yijian didn't want to talk to him too much; he was single, a sucker for good looks, and she had to be careful.

Ye Lixuan looked at Qin Yifan with a mournful expression, "Don't tell me it's Sister Jiang."

"You're so heartless! I asked you for information about Sister Jiang, and you wouldn't give me a single thing!"

Tao Zhan: "What's this? It sounds like you're interested in someone too?"

Ye Lixuan scratched his head, looking embarrassed, and said, "It's alright..."

-

While Jiang Lai was idly sitting in the parking lot, Qin Yijian appeared. He glanced at her, then gave a slight nod, and the two of them walked towards a car in the corner without saying a word.

"Where is Zhou Zhu?" Jiang Lai asked.

“This is a private trip. I told him he didn’t need to come along; he’s already off work.”

"Oh, oh." Jiang Lai looked at Qin Yijian, who was already sitting in the driver's seat, and hesitated for a moment whether to sit in the passenger seat or the back seat.

Qin Yijian urged her to get in the car, "What are you still standing there for? Get in the car."

Jiang Lai asked, "Where should I sit?"

Qin Yijian: "Passenger, is that even a question?"

He gave her a look that said, "Are you stupid?" Jiang Lai suppressed the urge to swear and got into the car.

"seat belt."

Jiang Lai quickly tied it up.

The car drove out of the underground parking lot, and the two remained silent the whole way.

-

When Jiang Lai and Qin Yijian arrived at the private room, there were already quite a few people inside.

Besides Qin Yifan and Ye Lixuan, whom she knew, there were several other people she didn't know, but they all seemed to know Qin Yijian.

"Jiang Jiang, brother!" Qin Yifan greeted her happily, then quickly pulled Jiang Lai over to introduce her to his friend.

Jiang Lai was dressed in a formal suit and wore light makeup for the shoot today. She came to the private room without changing her clothes after the shoot ended.

When she and Qin Yijian entered the private room, most people's eyes were on them.

Besides the fact that the two arrived the latest, it was also because of their outstanding appearance.

Qin Yijian was still wearing a black suit. He was tall and imposing. The girl next to him was a head shorter than him. She was wearing a white business suit with a pearl hair clip in her hair. She had an elegant demeanor. Her top was short, which highlighted her slender waist. Paired with her stunningly beautiful face, she looked exceptionally beautiful.

She looked more mature and had an added intellectual beauty than usual.

Qin Yifan enthusiastically introduced everyone, and they soon started chatting.

Qin Yijian was older than most people present, and no one talked to him, so he simply dealt with his official business on his own.

Qin Yifan enthusiastically ordered several dishes and also served some wine.

Because she had previously mentioned that it was to bring her best friend and brother together, Qin Yifan arranged for Jiang Lai to sit next to her brother.

Tao Zhan, watching with interest, whispered to Qin Yifan, "Aren't you afraid Brother Qin will teach you a lesson?"

Qin Yifan argued vehemently, "My sisters are so beautiful, my brother should be secretly happy! They might not even be interested in him, so what does he have to be unhappy about? Everything should revolve around my sisters!"

Tao Zhan shook her head, glanced at Jiang Lai and Qin Yijian, and asked, "What do you think of me?"

"Huh?" "I said, I think your sister is pretty, she's my type. Do you think I'm okay with her?"

Qin Yifan looked him up and down. "You? You're not good enough."

Tao Zhan retorted, "What's wrong with me?"

Qin Yifan hesitated for a moment before saying, "You're not good-looking."

Tao Zhan's dead fish eyes: How rude!

Tao Zhan's face was indeed rather ordinary-looking, but not ugly either. She was now feeling indignant after being hurt by Qin Yifan.

Qin Yifan comforted her, "There are too many good-looking people around my sister, you have no chance. At least you have to be on my brother's level, otherwise how would I dare to ask my sister?"

Tao Zhan glanced at Qin Yijian, who was standing alone in the corner, and shook her head. She couldn't compare; she simply couldn't compare.

Besides, I want my sister to be my sister-in-law. Even if she can't be my sister-in-law, I still have to find her a handsome guy!

Qin Yifan inwardly grumbled, then pulled Jiang Lai aside to chat.

In the private room, everyone was gossiping. Tao Zhan was initially discouraged, but she quickly cheered up. Maybe beautiful women value inner beauty more?

Jiang Lai quickly became familiar with everyone, and the atmosphere was just right. Everyone ate and chatted, except for Qin Yijian, who remained silent.

Qin Yifan deliberately asked Qin Yijian to sit next to Jiang Lai so that he could take better care of her and the two of them could have more contact. Unexpectedly, Qin Yijian did not interact with anyone at all throughout the entire process.

Even though Qin Yifan gave him plenty of obvious hints, he still remained as dense as a block of wood.

Forget it, destroy it!

Qin Yifan gave up and simply dragged her girlfriends along to have some fun.

Ye Lixuan and Tao Zhan were both lively and outgoing, and they never let anyone else have a chance to speak at the dinner table, so everyone was very happy.

After we finished eating, the staff brought us snacks, fruit, and drinks.

Everyone then started playing board games and Truth or Dare.

Jiang Lai wasn't having much luck today and kept losing. She didn't want to choose Truth or Dare, so she kept choosing Dare. Luckily, she was a newbie, so no one made things too difficult for her. The only things they did were fine her and make her drink.

Jiang Lai knew she wasn't a big drinker, but thinking it was fruit wine and Qin Yifan was around, she drank one glass after another, convinced that nothing bad would happen.

Surprisingly, the fruit wine tasted quite good, sweet. Jiang Lai drank it without any problems and had no qualms about it.

This time, she's going to take back everything that belongs to her!

The people in the private room were having a great time, and Qin Yijian impatiently walked out, trying to get away from the noisy crowd.

When he returned to the private room, some people had already started acting drunk and disorderly.

Qin Yijian went to check on her younger sister first. Hmm, her eyes were clear, so it seemed there was nothing wrong.

Then I noticed Jiang Lai leaning against her younger sister.

Her once neatly tied bun had drooped down, and her fair face was flushed.

He frowned: "Are you alright?"

Jiang Lai slowly looked up at him, as if to confirm who he was, then raised her arm and pointed to herself, "Are you asking me?"

"Yes."

Jiang Lai could clearly hear the sounds around her, but she always felt that the world was separated from her by a layer, everything was hazy, and the sounds seemed to come from a very far place.

She felt dizzy, as if her face was burning, yet she also felt like she was floating on clouds.

"Brother, Jiang Jiang seems to be drunk," Qin Yifan said.

"I'm not stupid, I figured it out. Let's go, I'll take you home." Since Qin Yijian hadn't been drinking, she was naturally the one who would drive them home.

"Going home?" Qin Yifan asked.

Qin Yijian hesitated for a moment, then said, "I'll take her back to her dorm. You take her up there."

"what?"

"Otherwise what? Is it something to be proud of for a male boss to drive a female intern home?"

"Then let's go back to our home!"

"?"

"I'm telling Jiang Jiang's roommate that I won't be going home tonight. Bro, can you take Jiang Jiang and me home?" Qin Yifan said, "Anyway, we don't have to record a show tomorrow."

"Jiang Jiang, come back with me tonight! Let's sleep together!"

Upon hearing Qin Yifan's words, Jiang Lai nodded without much hesitation, "Okay."

This is a female friend verified by the system; she's a good person and everything's alright.

Hearing Jiang Lai's reply, Qin Yifan went to look at her brother again. She hadn't given up on playing matchmaker yet, and cautiously asked, "Brother, what do you think?"

Qin Yijian glanced at her, seemingly thinking, and then hummed in agreement.

"Okay!" Qin Yifan immediately took out his phone and asked the production team for the phone number of Han Caiwei, who shared a dormitory with Jiang Lai.

After explaining the situation to her, I said, "Brother, let's go!"

The others in the private room hadn't had enough fun yet, so Qin Yifan told them and, along with her girlfriends and her brother, went outside.
