Chapter 1071: Ending (4)

“From a business perspective, there’s indeed no reason for me to reject this, but what I want to say is…” Jin Ze paused before continuing. “Actually, CEO Qin is not that different from I am, right? We both see Cheng Qingchong as a commodity, do we not? It’s just that CEO Qin is more generous than I am, willing to give up the whole company for one woman.”

“No, I’m different from CEO Jin… Even two years ago, when CEO Jin agreed to Cheng Qingchong’s conditions, CEO Jin didn’t prepare for the investment to go to waste, or else CEO Jin wouldn’t have studied the details of the contract so closely before signing the contract with me, am I wrong? CEO Jin is a real businessman, but I am not.” Qin Yinan stopped and slowly turned his head toward the window like he was deep in thought.

After a while, his gaze returned to Jin Ze. “I have never treated Cheng Qingchong as a commodity. The purpose of this document is not for CEO Jin to surrender Cheng Qingchong to me; I’m using it to purchase Cheng Qingchong’s freedom.”

Jin Ze was stumped. He glanced at Qin Yinan with disbelief before shaking his head with a laugh like he had heard some kind of big joke. “Did I hear CEO Qin correctly? CEO Qin is willing to go bankrupt just to purchase a woman’s freedom?”

If not for his years of perfect upbringing, Jin Ze really wanted to ask Qin Yinan if he had lost his mind.

“Yes, it’s that simple.” Qin Yinan’s answer sounded particularly sincere, without any hesitance. “Therefore, CEO Jin, if there’s no problem, please sign.”

Jin Ze picked up the document to flip through it again. “Are you sure you won’t regret this?”

“I won’t.” Qin Yinan picked up the pen to pass it to Jin Ze.

Jin Ze accepted it but before signing, he asked again, “CEO Qin, after I drop my signature, you will lose everything. All the work that you’ve put in over these years will be for nothing, and you will revert back to the state of an unknown poor man. Are you sure about this?”

“I am.”

Jin Ze looked at Qin Yinan for two seconds before scrawling down his signature. As he did so, Qin Yinan pulled out his phone to call his lawyer.

The procedure on the law’s side progressed incredibly fast. In less than ten minutes, everything was settled and done.

When Qin Yinan stood up with his lawyer and prepared to leave, Jin Ze suddenly called his name. Qin Yinan stopped at the door to the room and turned to look at Jin Ze.

After Jin Ze waved for the lawyer to leave, he stood up from the sofa. He stared at Qin Yinan, and his lips moved. There was something on his mind that he wished to tell the man, but the words somehow got changed into the following when they reached his lips. “Cheng Qingchong has been with me for more than a year already, acting the role of my mistress. CEO Qin… no, I should refer to you as Mr. Qin now. Mr. Qin, if Cheng Qingchong is still willing to return to you to restart a life together, are you sure you won’t look down on her?”

This time it was Qin Yinan who laughed like he had heard a silly joke. Qin Yinan glanced at Jin Ze like he was looking at a mad man. He didn’t even waste his energy to answer the man’s question. He turned around wordlessly and pulled the door shut behind him.
