Monopolize My Mysterious Wife

Chapter 31: Chapter 31 Working at JK International_1 Chapter 31: Chapter 31 Working at JK International_1 “God damn it, my shirt just got torn apart?” A man exclaimed not far away, his previously intact shirt now missing a sleeve and with several buttons ripped off from the front.

A spark lit up in Jian Qing’s eyes as the thought she was wavering on turned into determination instantly.

In this perilous situation, it was better for her to leave first.

As she walked away, Jian Qing was thinking about a nice dessert to snack on.

“Jian Qing, Jian Qing…”

Upon hearing someone calling her name, Jian Qing snapped out of her dessert oblivion and turned around to see.

Amidst the crowd, she saw a petite figure overcome obstacles and waved frantically towards her.

“Jian Qing!” A bright smile under the sunlight stood out exceptionally sweet.

Once she recognized who it was, Jian Qing sighed.

Was she really this destined to cross paths with people from the Quan family?

She saw a woman in a flattering suit sprinting effortlessly despite her high heels, messy curls flowing in her wake. Jian Qing couldn’t help but admire her.

“Jian Qing, we meet again, what a coincidence!” The person was none other than Quan Yifei, who barely had the breath to speak her sentence, sporting rosy cheeks from the run.

Jian Qing nodded, looking at the work badge hanging in front of Quan Yifei’s, an image of violet eyes immediately flashed in her mind.

“Yifei, are you working at JK International?”

“Yeah!” Finally catching her breath, Quan Yifei straightened up, “I’m working at my elder brother’s company, that’s JK International over there.”

She pointed out to a skyscraper not far away, indicating for Jian Qing to look at it.

Jian Qing followed her gaze to see a towering majestic building piercing through the clouds. It was so tall that the floors seemed endless.

“Manager, wait for me!” A panting voice disturbed Jian Qing’s thoughts.

“Xiaoyun, your stamina is poor, you need to work out more.” Quan Yifei teased, taking the briefcase from her assistant.

Lin Yun rolled her eyes, “Manager, if the high school entrance exams had a physical test, I’d get a perfect score with my current fitness level.”

Quan Yifei burst into laughter, playfully patting her shoulder, “Then keep up the good work.”

Only then did Lin Yun notice Jian Qing standing next to Quan Yifei. A hint of amazement flashed through her gaze, nearly leaving her dumbstruck.

Dang, she’s so beautiful!

She is definitely on par with our CEO!

“Jian Qing, are you also here for the exhibition?” Quan Yifei asked.

Jian Qing nodded, “Sort of.”

“Great, let’s go together then.” Quan Yifei proposed, not waiting for Jian Qing’s response, she just started walking, arm in arm with her.

“Don’t you have work?” Jian Qing gestured towards the briefcase and files in her hands, asking in a soft voice, “Won’t that get in your way?”

“Not at all, my job today is specifically to meet Xiya.” Quan Yifei was chatting as she pulled Jian Qing along.

Jian Qing raised an eyebrow but didn’t question further.

With Quan Yifei leading the way, they were able to take a special passageway and enter the exhibition smoothly.

As they entered, they saw Xiya being surrounded by a horde of journalists, being interviewed.

“What a handsome person, absolutely cool.” Lin Yun had hearts in her eyes as she sighed in admiration.

Jian Qing lifted her gaze slightly, took a quick glance at Xiya who was surrounded by reporters, and couldn’t help but laugh.

This person is still as flamboyant as ever.

Kneading through the reporters was a woman with an oval-shaped face, deep-set features, brilliant emerald eyes slightly upturned, exuding a bold and bewitching aura. Even the sight of short pastel pink hair attracted attention. Her tall figure made her look like a beautiful young man that had stepped out of a comic strip.

“Xiya, how long do you plan to stay in Beijing?”

“Xiya, when is your next exhibition?”

“Xiya, this is your first exhibition in China. Do you have any plans to organize exhibitions in other cities of China?”

The reporters were squeezing each other to ask their questions, shoving their mics closer to Xiya.

With a smug smile on her face, Xiya snapped her fingers. The clear sound echoed through the exhibition hall.

The reporters fell silent.

Sensing something, Xiya scanned around. Upon seeing a pair of smiling eyes, the corners of her mouth subtly lifted.

She subtly signaled to her agent to come over.

“Apologies, but the interview will end here. Any remaining questions will be answered by my agent.” Xiya’s patience was exhausted by the repetitive questions.

Her agent timely came over, giving Xiya an annoyed look, but acquiesced to face the reporters in her place.

“Ladies and gentlemen of the press, Xiya has some matters to attend to. I will address your questions in her place.” After all, she was their star, and it was his job to manage the situation for her.

Besides, he wasn’t blind. He saw their star’s favorite person had arrived, their star already rumored to have countless romantic connections, and if the paparazzi managed to capture photos of Xiya embracing that person, explaining that situation would be an even bigger headache.

The reporters immediately surrounded the agent when they saw that Xiya was leaving, trying to dig some new scoops about Xiya from him.

Like Xiya’s sexual orientation, for instance.

Xiya, who slipped away in advance, headed straight for the break room and had the staff guide Jian Qing over.

The resting area door was pushed open, Xiya immediately leaped off the couch and dashed towards the door.

“Dear Jian!”

The affected sweet voice gave Jian Qing goosebumps and she pushed Yan Qing who walked at the end.

“Um…” Quan Yifei, who was leading the way, didn’t expect such a scene when she opened the door. Seeing the pink-haired woman pounce towards her, she was taken aback.

Could this be the rumored Xiya?

Xiya was quick to react when she realized it wasn’t Jian Qing, immediately putting a stop to her actions.

That was close. Almost hugged the wrong person.

The startled ones weren’t only Quan Yifei, Lin Yun was also dumbfounded, remaining frozen in place.

Jian Qing laughed. She then bypassed Quan Yifei and Lin Yun, stepping into the room, “Xiya, you’re still the same as ever.”

Xiya wanted to give another hug of love, but on seeing Jian Qing’s narrowed eyes, she quickly backed down.

Alright, she couldn’t afford to provoke this daunting figure.

The two kept shifting their gaze curiously between Jian Qing and Xiya, evidently amazed.

Quan Yifei, sitting next to Jian Qing, turned to glance at Xiya, “Jian Qing, do you two know each other?”

“Mhm.” Jian Qing replied lightly.

“Manager!” Lin Yun, her face red, sent Quan Yifei a silent call for help.

Xiya was sitting next to her, with her arm resting on Lin Yun’s shoulder. Anyone who didn’t know any better might think something scandalous was going on between them.

Jian Qing shot Xiya a glance, aware that Xiya’s playful side had kicked in.
