Fake Marriage To The Richest Tycoon-Chapter 284 - 283: Shentu Chu disturbs Qiao Minde

When the meeting was over, Qiao ShenJi was called to Qiao Minde’s office. Everyone was wondering how did Qiao ShenJi became a member of the board. According to what they know, Qiao Minde hated Qiao ShenJi because he was seen as lowly.

In the Qiao Minde’s office.

Qiao ShenJi received a lot of tasks and work. Qiao Minde’s assistant did the talking and explaining, briefing Qiao ShenJi on his new responsibilities.

Qiao ShenJi glanced at Qiao Minde who didn’t look up, going through documents. He couldn’t tell what he was thinking because Qiao Minde always wore an aloof expression. It was seldom that he showed any other expression or feelings.

The scene from the gathering that day when Qiao Minde protected Qiao Pulan came up to his mind. ShenJi discussed with the assistant for three hours.

When he came out, Pulan pulled him to the side, concern etched across her face.

"Honey, why did he called you to his office?" Qiao Pulan was worried. She heard many things about Qiao Minde in the Qiao group, especially horrific things of him torturing and killing people. Thus she was terrified.

In short, Qiao Minde was a monster.

"Nothing. See?" He held up the files the assistant gave him.

"Phew. Thank goodness! I thought something was going to happen!" Pulan was very relieved.

It seemed as if a new light had dawned on them.

They were both working in the Qiao Group, a promising future ahead but not without difficulties. ShenJi was even allowed to run some of the family’s business which means that he was going to be accepted into the Qiao family. They will no longer have to be shamed or humiliated. But still, that won’t stop.

Qiao Pulan knew that she had to grow stronger if she wanted happiness, if she wanted to live up to her grandfather’s trust.

It was noon when Qiao Minde came out of his office. He took the lift to the main floor. From the corner of his eye, he spotted someone.

Shentu Chu stood at the entrance, waving at Qiao Minde.

Everyone was surprised and gossips started to spread throughout the company once again.

"Hey, isn’t that Shentu Chu? What is he doing here?" One girl whispered.

"Is he here to pick up CEO Qiao? Omg, are the rumours really true?"

"I heard that Shentu Chu likes men! Ahhhh! I sense Danmei vibes in the air!"

"Are they going on a date? They looked perfect!" The female employees sidled together, whispering loudly.

Shentu Chu seemed to be surrounded by an air of radiance and happiness as he stood there. But Qiao Minde seemed to be the opposite, cold, aloof and temperamental like waves.

Qiao ShenJi and Qiao Pulan happened to overheard the gossips, and saw Shentu Chu waiting for Qiao Minde there. They were about to go for lunch together.

Could it be true? After all, Qiao Minde hasn’t touch a single woman in his entire life.

He had no scandal and hardly go to nightclubs or bars. It was as if he had a disease of women.

Qiao Minde crossed the distance between them, standing before Shentu Chu. He already heard those ridiculous rumours and his face turned ugly. Shentu Chu’s appearance only escalate things and made them worst. Is that what he wanted?

"Why are you here?" He asked the latter coldly.

"To make a deal," Shentu Chu smiled as if they were friends. freёnovelkiss.com

"What deal?"

"Give Nian Nian to me. I won’t treat her poorly. I can promise to protect her forever. I’ll be your brother in law," Shentu Chu spoke, hinting at their past conversation.

Qiao Minde face darkened instantly, Shentu Chu seemed to not noticed and went on babbling.

"I even kiss her... So does that make her mine? And we even laid on the couch and...."

At this moment, Qiao Minde really wanted to strangle Shentu Chu. He walked closer to Shentu Chu until their shoes almost touched, and he glared daggers into his eyes.

Shentu Chu sensed what Qiao Minde was thinking about and said, "If you strangle me in public, people will say that you are abusing your authority, or that you are murdering your L. O. V. E. R." He spelt it out with a grin.

Qiao Minde had to try very hard to suppress the anger brewing in his heart. His fist clenched and unclenched, seemingly thinking whether to punch him or not.

"Get out of here. The Qiao Group is not your playground," Qiao Minde finally said and turned away.

"I won’t move," Shentu Chu stubbornly refused. "Until you agree," he added with a mischievous smile. Qiao Minde had taken one step when he was forced to put his attention back on Shentu Chu.

Qiao Minde looked like someone had just thrown mud on his face. With Shentu Chu’s crazy antics, he could never keep up with him.

"Why do you want Ah Nian? Do you love her?"

Shentu Chu switched to serious. "I know that I do. It’s not because of anything. It’s because she’s Nian Nian,"

"Loving her is not enough," Qiao Minde started to think about the times when his sister was with Shentu Chu, and how concerned she was for him.

He didn’t trust Shentu Chu but he knew that look in his sister’s eyes. Ah Nian had really fallen in love with Shentu Chu. Deep in his mind, Qiao Minde already knew that she would choose Shentu Chu over him.

"I’ll protect her, give her happiness, I won’t ever make her cry or sad. I promise I won’t let her down. She’ll be my everything," Shentu Chu’s words sounded sincere and honest, filled with so much love and passion.

To Qiao Nian, Qiao Minde was her guardian. To get together officially, Shentu Chu needed this guardian’s approval. Qiao Nian also needed Qiao Minde’s approval. If not, how can her heart be at ease?

"Fine,"

"Really?!" Shentu Chu’s eyes brightened instantly.

"No," Qiao Minde crushed his hopes with a single word.

Shentu Chu looked like a person who’s heart had been shattered.
