After ONS: Trapped by the Cunning Professor-Chapter 369 - 370: I Don’t Hate You
The meeting was interrupted before it even started, and everyone in the conference room sat stiffly in their chairs, at a loss.
Because Qin Mobai had just sat down for two seconds before standing up, saying only "Come out with me" to Shen Ruozhuo, and then walked out of the conference room alone.
Qin Mobai’s cold and stern back silenced everyone in the room, making them hold their breath, even though he had already left.
It was only half a minute after Qin Mobai left that the atmosphere in the meeting room eased slightly.
Shen Ruozhuo stood up from her chair, smiling gently at everyone, "You can start discussing, Mo Bai and I will be back shortly."
Only then did everyone seem to remember that Shen Ruozhuo was Qin Mobai’s fiancée, as Mr. Qin had previously held a press conference to confirm Shen Ruozhuo’s identity.
It was at this moment that they came to a realization.
So, the reason for President Qin’s sudden anger was that he disliked seeing his fiancée working?
Indeed, women in wealthy families rarely step out into the spotlight.
"Alright, alright, let’s start today’s discussion topic..." Su Lin interrupted their whispers, taking charge of today’s meeting.
But...Su Lin felt that today might be unfavorable for him, as he didn’t know that the person sent from the gallery was Shen Ruozhuo.
Next to the large conference room was a smaller one, all glass; Shen Ruozhuo saw Qin Mobai standing inside as she walked out, his back suggesting a hidden anger.
Was it because she violated his instruction not to appear before him again?
"Knock knock knock—" Shen Ruozhuo knocked and entered the small meeting room. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
The man continued to face away from her, presenting her with a cold, unkind silhouette.
"I didn’t know the partner in this cooperation would be you," Shen Ruozhuo began, her voice calm, "but the contract for ten paintings has been signed, the gallery has printed the promotional materials, notified the media; if the paintings are pulled now, the exhibition can’t proceed."
Only after Shen Ruozhuo finished speaking did Qin Mobai turn around, fixing his cold eyes on Shen Ruozhuo.
"Are you ’ZeRu ShiYu’?" The artist he had previously chosen to exhibit alongside his mother at her art show, ZeRu ShiYu?
Shen Ruozhuo responded with a faint smile, "If you had listened a bit more to what your grandparents said about me, you would know I am ZeRu ShiYu." Thus avoiding collaboration with her.
Indeed, Qin Mobai had never seriously listened to Qin Sheng speak about Shen Ruozhuo, so he didn’t know her pseudonym was ZeRu ShiYu.
"Mo Bai, I don’t know why you suddenly dislike me so much. If it’s because I publicly mentioned our relationship at the press conference, I’ve already apologized and will clarify our relationship in the future. Beyond that, I don’t know what else I’ve done to anger you. If you truly don’t want to see me, I can leave now. Those ten paintings can be considered a gift to you, as a tribute to your mother, whom I greatly admire as a painter."
Shen Ruozhuo spoke calmly, with the dignity of a queen.
But if you listened carefully, you could hear her attempts to make peace with Qin Mobai.
She didn’t want Qin Mobai to dislike her.
Qin Mobai felt a wave of annoyance in his heart and said, "I don’t dislike you."
How could he dislike a girl who had saved him fourteen years ago?
