Chapter 21 - 022: Speak Out, Don’t Keep It Bottled Up
In the car, Qin Mobai drove silently, and the atmosphere was quiet.
Lou Xi was a bit uneasy, clutching the seatbelt, and tentatively asked, "Young Master Qin, where are we... going?"
Qin Mobai’s profile was striking, with a sharp nose, sensual thin lips, and a perfect neckline, especially when he breathed, the Adam’s apple moving up and down made Lou Xi swallow hard.
He truly was the most handsome man Lou Xi had ever seen. She had meant to ask where they were going, but looking at his face, her mind started wandering.
Using the term "world-class beauty" to describe him wasn’t an exaggeration.
Stop it!
Lou Xi forcibly halted her thoughts; her current situation was awkward enough without having the time to admire this man’s beauty.
Besides, it was this man who put her in this awkward position. Once she found out who set her up by tracing the IP, she would report it to the police!
She was ready to say goodbye to all this nonsense!
Suddenly, Qin Mobai turned his head.
Lou Xi quickly turned to look outside the window; wasn’t she just sneaking glances at him?
She silently counted to five before sneaking a look back.
"If you want to look, do it openly. You’ve already done bolder things, still afraid to steal a glance?" Qin Mobai’s cool voice came from his mouth.
Lou Xi jumped; was he talking about the night when they first met, and she went crazy from drinking?
Ugh... Her face flushed instantly.
"Wasn’t I just asking where we are going?" She awkwardly changed the topic.
"Going to Jiasheng, have the Tech Department trace the IP." Qin Mobai said casually.
But Lou Xi couldn’t remain calm, "Jiasheng? Are you talking about Jia Sheng Group?"
"Is there a second Jia Sheng in Nancheng?"
Lou Xi stared at Qin Mobai with wide eyes, surprised that tracing just one IP required the help of a top 100 global company’s Tech Department?
"Such a big company... wouldn’t it be too troublesome?"
"Not troublesome." Qin Mobai turned on the signal lights and the car turned right, "You blame me, so I should compensate you a bit."
Ugh... Earlier at the administrative building, she only vented her grievances. She had forgotten what she said, and now he’s bringing it up...
"You still owe me money, at least make sure of your innocence first so you can earn money to pay me back." He said lightly, as if he didn’t care about Lou Xi’s innocence but only about the money she owed him!
He wore a watch worth millions, yet he’s bothered by her owing him 23,000? Truly, rich people are petty! Complete hypocrites!
"What did you call me, say it out loud for me to hear, don’t just keep it inside."
Really, this is ridiculous, why can he guess that she’s cursing him in her heart?
Does he have mind reading technique?
"How dare I curse Young Master Qin? You covered my medical expenses and now you’re taking me to investigate who set me up, I should be thanking you, why would I curse you?" She said with a flattering smile.

Qin Mobai responded with a light hum.
Meaning—no one believes what you’re saying.
In no time, the car arrived at the bottom of Jiasheng Building, a towering building Lou Xi craned her neck to see the top.
She had always wanted to work at Jia Sheng Group. Unexpectedly, her first time stepping into Jiasheng Building was being led in by Qin Mobai, asking the Tech Department to trace an IP.
Lou Xi suddenly thought of a very serious question, Qin Mobai was just an outstanding senior, what gave him the authority to mobilize the Tech Department of Jia Sheng Group?
