1289 They’re Just Friends

Qin Sheng considerately pretended not to know and explained, “Grandpa, I accidentally spilled some red wine on my clothes just now, so I went to change. Brother Fu accompanied me.”

Xie Hen, who was wearing a white suit, came over.

His gaze fell on Qin Sheng for a moment before shifting away. He said apologetically, “Seniors, I was entertaining others just now and neglected you.”

Old Master Qin looked at Xie Hen and couldn’t help but nod. “Not bad. You took over the company at such a young age.”

Today’s banquet was organized by the Xie family to celebrate Xie Hen taking over the Xie Corporation.

Old Master Qin’s words were filled with satisfaction.

He felt that it was a pity.

Xie Hen, this child, was very outstanding and considerate.

If Xie Hen became his grandson-in-law, he probably wouldn’t keep snatching Qin Sheng from him.

However, Qin Sheng and Fu Hanchuan had already gotten their marriage certificate, and Qin Sheng liked Fu Hanchuan too. No matter how satisfied Old Master Qin was with Xie Hen, he could not force Xie Hen and Qin Sheng to be together.

He snorted coldly and warned Fu Hanchuan, “Sheng Sheng is very outstanding and is also a child of the Qin family. Many people like her. Fu Hanchuan, if you dare to let my precious granddaughter suffer, I’ll definitely help Sheng Sheng kick you out and find another one for her.”

The veins on Fu Hanchuan’s forehead were throbbing.

“Grandpa, don’t worry about that. I won’t treat Sheng Sheng badly.”

“I don’t think you would dare.”

Xie Hen did not stay for long. He still had other guests to entertain. He nodded and said, “Uncles, if you have anything to do, feel free to come and find me.”

When he faced Qin Sheng, his voice was gentle, but it was not obvious. “Xiao Sheng, you’re my friend. If you need help, you’re welcome.”

Whenever Xie Hen saw Qin Sheng, he would always emphasize the word ‘friend’.

Actually, he was reminding himself that he couldn’t. They were just friends…

“Alright,” Qin Sheng agreed.

Xie Hen smiled and looked at Fu Hanchuan. He could see the hostility and warning in Fu Hanchuan’s eyes.

Xie Hen naturally disliked Fu Hanchuan as well.

They were love rivals.

Xie Hen smiled faintly. “Fu Hanchuan, I hope you can treat Xiao Sheng well.”

Fu Hanchuan sneered. “You don’t have to worry about that.”

When Xie Hen heard this, he also felt that he was worrying too much.

With Fu Hanchuan’s care for Qin Sheng, he would protect Qin Sheng even if he hurt himself.

He could not help but laugh at himself.

From what standpoint was he criticizing Fu Hanchuan?

After Xie Hen left, Qin Sheng suggested, “Brother Fu, I want to find a room to rest.”

“Alright, I’ll accompany you.”

Old Master Qin frowned. “Why don’t you go back first, Sheng Sheng?”

He didn’t dare to let Fu Hanchuan and Qin Sheng stay in the same hotel room. Wasn’t that like a sheep entering the household register?

Qin Sheng’s eyes flashed. “Grandpa, I still have things to do.”

Old Master Qin was still worried.

Fu Hanchuan saw through Qin Sheng’s thoughts and smiled dotingly.

“Grandpa, don’t worry. I won’t do anything to Sheng Sheng.”

Old Master Qin felt that he had seen through his thoughts. However, since Fu Hanchuan had promised, Old Master Qin no longer doubted him.

Lin Haoyu wanted to follow.

However, men and women were not supposed to touch each other, so he could only put his thoughts aside.

Fu Hanchuan accompanied Qin Sheng to the hotel room.

She curled up on the sofa and looked at her phone for a while. A wave of sleepiness hit her. After yawning, she rested her head on Fu Hanchuan’s shoulder and fell asleep.
