Chapter 212 - "Gotcha." (2)

Qi Han recollected himself suddenly. He shuddered and shook his head from side to side violently like a pellet drum. “No, no, no. Why would I? I am 100% your most loyal follower!”

Luo Xiu tsked lightly.

Qi Han’s babyface was straight and he said in a hooligan tone that was very out of character from his look, “Don’t you worry. I don’t think this girl can hold out much longer. She will fold in the next few days.”

Luo Xiu ignored him. He seemingly casually picked up a new topic after a few seconds. “You went inside her house earlier, right?”

Qi Han was caught off guard. “Oh, yes.”

Luo Xiu chuckled lightly and tenderly. “I am so envious of you.”

Qi Han, “…………?”

Qi Han almost turned into a sieve.

Trying his best to suppress his shaking, Qi Han said quickly, “I did go inside Screenwriter Gu’s apartment, but I swear I did not look at anything that I shouldn’t! It is wrong to cook the dog after the rabbits are gone. I know I didn’t have a lot of amazing achievements in the last two years, but I have worked very hard for the company. Please show me mercy in light of that!!”

The man on the other end busted out laughing, “Am I that scary?”

Qi Han continued to shake his head with no hesitation. “No, of course not. You are like the Buddha reborn.”

“Alright.” Luo Xiu changed the subject back. “As you have been to her place. How big would you say it roughly is? How is the living condition?”

Qi Han was speechless. After a little while, he said, choking back tears, “I, I was very focused on negotiating your contract with her. I didn’t know that checking out the environment was part of my job.”

“Just give me an idea.”

“Em, it’s alright?” Qi Han tried his best to recall. “It is in City K and land is expensive here. This area is not that far from the center of the city either. I am thinking maybe 70 ~ 80 square meters? As for the environment, I see that they more or less have the furniture that they need. The place is quite cozy?”

“……”

The person on the other end seemed to have no more questions. There was silence on the phone.

Qi Han dared not hang up the phone. He did, however, take the opportunity to unlock the car door with the fob and got inside the driver’s seat. Perhaps it was strong support from the back of the seat that had given him courage––

Qi Han couldn’t help but ask a little while after he gotten inside the car, “Boss Luo?”

“Hmm?”

“It just occurred to me earlier when I was inside Screenwriter Gu’s apartment. Did you only offer one position among the three of them for… for the sake of driving a wedge between them?”

Silence from the other end.

Qi Han regretted it as soon as he had finished saying that. He was short of slapping himself across his cheeks––

You had to ask that? You had to ask that?

Is your curiosity worth your life, huh??

Luckily, a few seconds later, the man from the other end chuckled gently. “Is that what you think of me? That I am such a jealous person and would even do that to her?”

“No, no, no. I’m just asking.”

“I only offered her one spot because of meritocracy.”

Qi Han, who had just saved his life at the edge of a cliff, only wished he could wave a flag and cheer. “You are very right! Meritocracy!”

“Besides……”

A dull chuckle replaced the rest of the sentence.

Tens of miles away, sitting next to the floor-to-ceiling window inside an office on the top floor of BH Media, Luo Xiu leaned back into the boss chair in the sun, lowered his eyes, and smiled.

“If that was my intention, I would not have gone with a method with so many holes.”

Qi Han was taking back a little. “What would you do then?”*

“In addition to that she must be there, I would also offer her……” Luo Xiu’s tone was that between a smile and a sigh. “an additional spot.”

“––“

Two spots for three people would destroy all three of them.

Sitting inside the car in a hot summer, Qi Han shuddered from a chill down his spine.

“Any other questions?”**

“No, no more.”

“Okay, come back to the office then.”

“O, okay.”

The call ended.

Luo Xiu looked out of the window. The clear blue sky was reddened by the setting sun from the edge of the sky.

“But I wouldn’t do that,” said Luo Xiu in a low voice, as though explaining it to someone in the office that had nobody else inside.

“I couldn’t bring myself to do that.”
