Chapter 40 - Married {6}
"Qiao, I know how you feel. You know, that\'s why I chose to resign. You know, the company I work for has a lot of advantages over W Corporation. In fact, even though it\'s a branch company, the company I work for is even more advanced than the W Corporation, has a higher salary, many benefits and other perks. Even for employees whose homes are outside the city, and are confused about finding a place to live close to the company, the company also provides an apartment for all the employees who are there to live in, and I live in one of the apartment rooms. You should visit me often, Qiao. Or if you\'d be willing to work with me, we could live under the same roof, wouldn\'t that be a lot of fun?" Lin Mei offered.
Hearing that, Qiao Xin looked very happy. Qiao Xin clearly remembered how she first met Mei. At that time, Mei was in a state of depression, sitting in front of her apartment by accident. Qiao Xin thought Mei might commit suicide until Qiao Xin found out that Mei was in a depression. Mei has a small house opposite her apartment but is forced to leave because the bank had taken it. Mei could not pay the amount of money she borrowed, so she had to lose her house as collateral. Because Qiao Xin couldn\'t bear it, Qiao Xin, who didn\'t know Mei at all, gave Mei some of the money Qiao Xin had. Qiao Xin\'s last money that she would make for a month\'s meal, then Qiao Xin took Mei into her house and stayed for a few days. Because at that time, Qiao Xin knew Jia Min wouldn\'t be home for some time. After that, the W Corporation happened to need a new employee. Qiao Xin immediately informed Mei, not long after that, Mei finally worked and was able to rent another small house. Indeed, after the incident, Qiao Xin could barely have an intense conversation with Mei because her work tends to be busy, and she separated them because of different divisions. But Qiao Xin didn\'t think at all that Mei would remember her to this extent.
"Yes, I really want to work, Mei. I really can\'t wait to get to work. But do I deserve to work in that company. Is that a subsidiary of what company?" Qiao Xin asked because she was already curious about the company that spoiled its employees too much.
"A subsidiary of the Han Corporation," Mei said timidly. How could I not? Mei already knew the rumors that it was the owner of the Han Corporation who asked Jiang Min to fire Qiao Xin. But it never hurts to work there.
Qiao Xin, who heard this, immediately fell silent. Her hopes seemed to be completely dashed just like that. Qiao Xin had no idea that things would turn out like this, something that was beyond her common sense. After he was kicked out of the W Corporation because of the CEO of the Han Corporation, how could he even be sent to work at the Han Corporation? Does that make sense? Deciding to work for a subsidiary of the Han Corporation wasn\'t the right thing at all.
"No, Mei. I\'m sorry, I can\'t seem to work there. Even though the gossip hasn\'t spread, I\'m pretty sure that many employees from W Corporation already know about this. It was the CEO of Han Corporation who kicked me out of the company. So how can I work at a subsidiary of the Han Corporation, it\'s the same as entering the lion\'s den, Mei."
"Qiao, listen to me," Mei started trying to convince Qiao Xin. "In fact this is your best chance after whatever it is, you know."
"You mean?"
"Yes, if you can and prove yourself to a subsidiary of the Han Corporation you will prove to the CEO of the Han Corporation how potential you are, and he will be ashamed of himself for having you fired from the W Corporation. After all, the subsidiary of the Han Corporation itself although the company is close to the central company, the CEO rarely goes there. I even asked the Directors, and the others, during their work they rarely came to their subsidiary companies, in fact they almost never came there. The only one who often visited was the Grandfather of the Han Corporation\'s CEO. If there are data and documents that need to be reported or anything, the employees come to the central company. That\'s what happened all along. So you don\'t have to feel how and refuse my offer, okay? Don\'t you even want to embarrass the CEO of Han Corporation, seeing you work for his company without him knowing? With that, you can silence that arrogant mouth of his."
Qiao Xin was silent again. Once again, she thought that what Mei said was true. She wanted revenge on Xiao Long, especially since Xiao Long had been enjoying herself so much when she was being bullied at her house at that time. If Xiao Long found out that Qiao Xin worked at a subsidiary of the Han Corporation, Qiao Xin would feel happy because Xiao Long would feel cheated. Qiao Xin seemed to smile, and then she looked at Mei with an excited look on her face.
"Okay, Mei. I agree, but I can\'t right now to do it. Next week I have very important business, and I have to attend to some other matters. After my business is done, I will call you and ask you to take me to the company. How?" Qiao Xin asked for approval.
Mei immediately nodded her head, hearing that Qiao Xin agreed she was very pleasant. More than that, it was likely that the two would be in the same division. It would bring the two closer together.
"Well, I will wait for good news from you, and I also hope that your affairs will always be smooth."
*****
Tonight, Qiao Xin seemed to be looking at Xiao Long. She didn\'t know what to say now. How not, the two of them were already in front of the Han family\'s house, which almost resembled a castle. Even earlier, Qiao Xin had been incessantly admiring the Han family\'s house. The house has a very large and sturdy iron fence. When the fence opens automatically, Qiao Xin does not immediately see the house but a large square with streets that form a perfect circle. There is a giant fountain decorated with greek sculptures in the courtyard. There, after that, enter the main car stop. There, Qiao Xin was treated to a very grand and large door, who presented a luxurious house with all-white nuances very gracefully and beautifully. Qiao Xin couldn\'t imagine how big the house was and how many people lived in the house. Even Qiao Xin was sure if the residents in her village could live in the Han family\'s house without the need to jostle.
"Are you satisfied with admiring my house?" Xiao Long quipped.
Qiao Xin immediately tiptoed. She seemed to gasp. Qiao Xin never thought that Xiao Long would notice her stupidity. Qiao Xin hated the most when Xiao Long became arrogant and liked to show off like this.
"Do you feel happy and happy, if soon you are a member of this family? Who can own this house, and be the young Mistress of this house?"
Qiao Xin is annoyed again, and Xiao Long is acting this annoying again to her. Qiao Xin never thought that in Xiao Long\'s heart and mind, she was the most rotten woman in the world. Then Qiao Xin smiled wryly, looked at the big and majestic door opening, walked towards the door, and Qiao Xin stopped her steps.
"You should think twice, Young Master Han before marrying me. Because maybe after we get married, I will try my best to get all your wealth. Remember this contract marriage isn\'t very profitable for a poor woman, and what kind of trash you have said? So just wait, until my mercenary nature will appear and make you regret having decided to contract marriage with me!"
Xiao Long seemed to be smiling as if he didn\'t care and wasn\'t afraid at all of what Qiao Xin said. He walked over to Qiao Xin, looked at Qiao Xin, then smiled again.
"Even you only asked for four hundred yuan for our contract marriage. So how can a stupid woman like you threaten me?" he said. Entering the house then Qiao Xin stepped behind him with mixed feelings.
Qiao Xin\'s anger towards Xiao Long slowly faded away. Her focus was now on the interior of the Han family\'s house, very luxurious and almost like a palace. Even Qiao Xin couldn\'t imagine how she could marry the only Young Master in this family.
Thump!
Qiao Xin grimaced as her forehead hit Xiao Long\'s broad back, then she rubbed her forehead, which was in pain.
Xiao Long glanced at this, and he was still smiling then. He embraced Qiao Xin\'s body romantically.
"We can\'t be stiff in front of my parents, so act like we\'re the loveliest and most romantic couple ever," whispered Xiao Long.
Qiao Xin could see that Xiao Long\'s parents were already standing on the edge of her vision as if looking forward to her arrival with Xiao Long.
"Daughter-in-law, come here. I can\'t wait for you to move and live in this house soon."
