Chapter 1222 Just having a meal with you, nothing else

"Don't run! Fight until dawn!"

Qin Manyue's roar in her sleep scared Qin Chuan.

He looked confused and asked, "What...what happened?"

Qin Manyue rubbed her eyes sleepily, then slowly opened them.

She looked around in a daze.

After a few seconds, Qin Manyue came back to her senses.

She scratched her head sheepishly and explained.

"I'm sorry... I just had a nightmare... I had an argument with my online friends in the dream... After they lost to me, they wanted to run away. I desperately chased them from behind..."

As Qin Manyue was talking, she noticed something unusual on Qin Chuan's face. "Why are you blushing?"

Qin Chuan turned his head away, pretending not to see anything and said, "Oh, maybe the room temperature is too high..."

Qin Manyue frowned slightly. She pulled her bathrobe and asked in confusion, "Is the temperature high? I think it's okay."

Just then, Qin Chuan's cell phone rang.

He looked down at the incoming call, and the expression on his face slowly turned cold.

Qin Chuan then walked to the window, answered the phone, and spoke in a serious tone.

"Hey..."

"Hey, Qin... I'm in the Magic City right now. I'll go to Jiangning to find you after I finish this charity event."

Jennifer Kelly on the other end of the phone started with a declarative sentence.

She did not use rhetorical questions to seek Qin Chuan's opinion.

This is the habitual way of speaking after being in a high position for a long time.

This is an expression that does not give the other party a chance to refuse.

"Come to see me today?"

"Yes, I'll be there soon!" Jennifer said solemnly.

Qin Chuan glanced at Qin Manyue who was still lying on the bed in a daze.

"I don't have time today. I have something to do."

Jennifer Kelly was stunned. "Qin... are you kidding me? I took a flight for more than ten hours from the United States and flew across the Pacific Ocean to find you..."

Qin Chuan interrupted Jennifer.

"Wait a minute...I never asked you to come to China..."

Jennifer Kelly blurted out instinctively when she heard this.

"But you don't want to see me?"

Qin Chuan was slightly startled.

The other party's words were beyond his expectations.

For a moment, Qin Chuan didn't know how to respond.

Jennifer realized later that she seemed to have said something wrong.

She added.

"But you said that 48 hours is the deadline..."

"Oh, you are quite punctual. Come see me tomorrow then."

Qin Chuan said nonchalantly.

48 hours is used to deliberately put pressure on the other party.

The seemingly random change of time was planned by Qin Chuan early in the morning.

It is to give yourself more initiative during the interview.

Qin Chuan's words were light, as if the matter was insignificant.

Jennifer was completely stunned.

No...how can such a big thing be treated so lightly?

This involves a business worth hundreds of billions or even trillions of dollars!

"Can..."

Qin Chuan's style suddenly changed and he immediately interrupted the other party.

"Jennifer, now it's you who need me, not me who needs you."

Jennifer could only hum silently when she heard this.

She understood that when you live under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.

Jennifer hesitated and spoke again.

"Then can I have dinner with you? I promise it's just a casual chat, no business."

Qin Chuan just felt that Jennifer Kelly's words were similar to those of some scumbags.

I'm outside, I promise not to go in...

He wouldn't believe that the other party came all the way here just to have a meal and not discuss business.

Qin Chuan was about to refuse when Qin Manyue on the other side spoke.

"Xiaochuan, I'm going to go wash up first. You have to hurry up. I have a lot of tasks today. I have to live broadcast for 8 hours!"

Qin Chuan nodded at her, indicating that there was no problem.

Qin Manyue's voice was transmitted to the Magic City through the mobile phone.

Jennifer's breathing suddenly stopped for a second.

She understood the English conversation on the other end of the line and could tell the gender of the other party.

The woman is the voice of a young woman.

Qin Chuan immediately responded to Jennifer's dinner invitation.

"Sorry, I have an appointment today. Let's have lunch together tomorrow at noon."

Qin Chuan is a man of his word. He said he would accompany Qin Manyue today, so he would not squeeze out time to entertain the US Secretary of State.

Besides, that was the original plan.

Qin Chuan naturally would not make changes for the other party.

Jennifer could not hide her disappointment on her face, and she tried to ease her embarrassment by forcing a smile.

"Oh...haha...I understand. You want to accompany your girlfriend."

"Girlfriend? What girlfriend?"

"Isn't the woman who just spoke your girlfriend?"

"That's my cousin. She's back from France. As the host, I have to accompany her. No matter how big the matter is, it's not as important as my family to me."

Qin Chuan's explanation was like a chocolate with a filling, which quickly brought a faint smile to Jennifer's bitter face.

She pretended to be calm and said, "Oh, I see. Since you want to accompany your family, I naturally don't want to disturb you..."

It turns out that the conversation should end here.

But Jennifer somehow said a few more words.

"From what your cousin said, she's an anchor? She does live broadcasts?"

Qin Chuan replied, "Yes, she is doing a live broadcast. She will broadcast for 8 hours today, and I promised to accompany her throughout the whole process."

"Oh, in that case, I wish her a smooth live broadcast."

"Well, thank you."

Qin Chuan was being polite to the other party in a formal manner, while Jennifer Kelly wanted to continue chatting casually.

Since we can't meet today, it shouldn't be illegal to chat for a while.

But her assistant came forward and whispered.

"Sir, it's your turn to speak..."

Jennifer looked somewhat resentful.

But she had to do it.

"Qin...see you tomorrow then."

"Well, see you tomorrow."

Qin Chuan said this and hung up the phone.

On the other end, Jennifer still held the phone to her ear in her right hand and did not put it down for a long time.

Until the assistant beside him gently touched him to remind him.

Only then did she come to her senses.

The tenderness on Jennifer's face turned into a hypocritical smile of a politician.

She walked slowly towards the podium...

"Who's calling? And they're communicating in English..." Qin Manyue, who was brushing her teeth, asked curiously.

Qin Chuan put away his phone and said.

"U.S. Secretary of State, Jennifer Kelly."

puff~

Hearing Qin Chuan's answer, Qin Manyue couldn't help but spray toothpaste foam all over his face.

"Hahahaha...you're trying to make me laugh so early in the morning~ The US Secretary of State called you...is he inviting you to have breakfast together?"

Qin Chuan wiped the toothpaste foam off his face, looking speechless.

"Big sister, look at the time. The sun is already high in the sky and it's not even time for breakfast... It's time for lunch, okay?"

Qin Manyue rolled her eyes and said bitterly, "It was all caused by those netizens last night..."

Qin Chuan exclaimed, "Good fellow, you sleep in, can you blame the netizens for that?"
