Chapter 2269 - Isn’t this a matchmaking dinner?

Yu Shao said, “The formulation of new rules will be a great pioneering move that will change the Independent State’s history. An achiever doesn’t bother with trifles. This subordinate thinks that Miss Nie is responsible, experienced, flexible, and considerate, and isn’t an unreasonable person. Furthermore, a great reason behind why you’re doing this is for her, so if you discuss it with her appropriately, I’m sure Miss Nie will understand.”

Lin Que was stupefied by what he heard. “Responsible, considerate, and reasonable? Why do you have such a frightening misunderstanding of that woman?”

Before Yu Shao could respond, Si Yehan spoke up. “Don’t mention this method again.”

Yu Shao began: “But, sir…”

“Perhaps she could understand it, but I can’t do it,” Si Yehan replied.

Since Si Yehan said that, it wasn’t Yu Shao’s place to say anything more.

Lin Que was at a loss for words as he listened to Si Yehan and Yu Shao’s conversation.

Just who gave you the misconception that demoness would understand, huh???

Your thoughts were wrong from the start, alright?!

At that moment, Si Yehan’s phone started ringing, and the caller ID said it was Vice President Qin.

When Lin Que peeked at the phone screen, he was astonished. “Why is Qin Zong calling Ninth Brother?”

Si Yehan briefly glanced at the name on his screen and quickly answered. “Hello, Vice President Qin.”

“Director Si! You arrived in Tianshui City today?”

“Yes, I arrived in the evening.”

“Great, great! I reserved a restaurant to give you a welcoming tomorrow!”

“You’re too polite.”

“Haha, it’s rare for the Arbitration Council to have such an outstanding youngster, and I love to befriend capable people like Director Si. So it’s set then! See you tomorrow, Director Si. You must come.”

“Of course.”

Si Yehan hung up.

Yu Shao spoke up, “Before we could act, Vice President Qin sought us out first. It appears Vice President Qin is leaning toward you more than Yin Heng, sir.”

Lin Que said, “Qin Zong isn’t stupid. Ninth Brother is Auntie Rong’s biological son, after all, so he’s safer than an adopted son no matter how you look at it!”

“Ninth Brother, are you going?” Lin Que asked.

Si Yehan didn’t respond and merely stared at his phone, lost in thought.

He was going, of course. It was just…

…

The next day, at the most high-end restaurant in Tianshui City:

Sitting in the chief seat was Vice President Qin, but Qin Zong didn’t come alone. Sitting to his left was a fair and slender girl with extraordinarily outstanding looks.

From the door, Lin Que caught sight of the people inside and became stunned.

“D*mn! Why is Eldest Miss Qin also here?! How is this a reception dinner? This is probably a… matchmaking dinner, right?” Lin Que grumbled to himself.

Si Yehan also didn’t expect Qin Zong to bring Miss Qin with him. His steps paused and his brows imperceptibly knitted.

“Nephew Si, you’re finally here! Come in quickly; let me introduce you to someone!” As soon as Qin Zong saw Si Yehan, he enthusiastically welcomed him inside and led him to his daughter. “Nephew, allow me to introduce to you. This is my daughter, Qin Xiyuan!”

“Yuanyuan, this is the new director I mentioned to you before, Si Yehan. He’s young and promising, and he’s your Auntie Yin’s son!”

“Mr. Si, hello, nice to meet you! I’ve always wanted to meet you, so when I heard Father mention that you came to Tianshui City, I begged him to bring me with him. You don’t mind, right?” Qin Xiyuan said gracefully with a faint smile on her face.
