Chapter 266 Even such a grown man can't resist being teased.

"I will naturally listen to what you say." Qin Mo's words were light, and his slightly cool tone did not reveal his true emotions. "But you should know the consequences of going easy on her. If you want Jiang Ruan to suffer those consequences, I don't care."

Old Master Qin gave him a disdainful look: "Really."

Qin Mo: "?"

Is he wrong?

"You're such a grown man, yet you're still so easily teased." Old Master Qin had a lot of resentment towards him. "If I really wanted you to go easy on me, I would have forced them to sign when your father suggested giving them shares directly."

Qin Mo remained expressionless: "Hmm."

Old Master Qin was even angrier: "Are you counting toads? You poke one and a word pops up."

"Think about our relationship before you speak," Qin Mo said calmly. "Don't drag yourself into this."

Old Master Qin took a deep breath: "Get out! Get out! Get out!"

Qin Mo stood up: "I'm leaving now."

Old Master Qin didn't want to talk to him anymore.

Qin Mo knew his temperament, so he nodded to the old butler, greeted him, and turned to leave.

Watching his retreating figure, Old Master Qin said to the old housekeeper with a hint of anger, "What a waste of the stories I told him when he was a child. He has no sense of humor at all. At this rate, when will my granddaughter-in-law be settled?"

"These things are a matter of fate," the old housekeeper reassured the old man.

Old Master Qin snorted coldly.

A few more minutes passed.

Thinking about what happened tonight, Master Qin, still worried, instructed the old butler: "Keep an eye on Ruan Ruan's affairs in secret during this time, and don't let the eldest and second sons do anything outrageous."

The old butler responded gently, "Okay."

at the same time.

Qin Jiangye and Jiang Ruan's side.

Qin Jiangye had a rough idea of ​​what Old Master Qin was thinking and doing.

He looked at Jiang Ruan, who was sitting with him in the back seat, and started chatting with her: "Little cousin."

Jiang Ruan glanced sideways.

"You don't need to worry too much about this test." Qin Jiangye sat casually in his chair, his tone nonchalant. "My uncle and my dad might try something, but Grandpa won't let them go too far."

"Hmm," Jiang Ruan replied calmly.

Seeing her aloof demeanor, Qin Jiangye suddenly leaned closer.

Jiang Ruan was startled by his actions: "What are you doing?"

Qin Jiangye smiled slightly, his voice lazy and casual: "Let's take a closer look at my little cousin's ruthless side, and think about how to get closer to her."

Jiang Ruan: "..."

Even though she was constantly on guard against the Qin family.

But looking at the youthful face and fluffy head in front of him, he unconsciously lowered his guard.

From their first meeting until now, Qin Jiangye has always treated her and her mother with respect.

"Does my cousin find me more agreeable now?" Qin Jiangye spoke with a drawn-out tone, but it wasn't annoying.

"Get to the point, don't get so close to me." Jiang Ruan pushed him away slightly, her aloofness not much different from before.

Qin Jiangye smiled and sat back down.

Before I could even settle into my seat, the car suddenly braked hard!

Qin Jiangye and Jiang Ruan both staggered and swayed.

"Secretary Qin." Qin Jiangye steadied himself, his casual gaze falling on the person in the driver's seat. "If you want to be a boss, don't resort to murder. Your little cousin is still in the car."

Secretary Qin ignored her boss's usual irrational remarks: "The car on the right front deliberately crashed into us."

Qin Jiangye opened the car window and saw a black sedan parked on the side of the road with its hazard lights flashing in front of them. Seeing the driver's side door open, he asked, "Are you sure you deliberately crashed into us?"

"Confirmed," Secretary Qin said.

Qin Jiangye: "Crash it back."

Secretary Qin: "It's their responsibility now; if they cause the accident, it becomes ours."

Qin Jiangye maintained his nonchalant attitude: "If no one is hurt, at most we'll pay some money in compensation; the main thing is to avoid being bullied."

Secretary Qin: "..."

Secretary Qin rationally did not take his boss's advice. When he saw the other party get out of the car and walk towards their car, he also opened the driver's side door and got out of the car.

Qin Jiangye turned his head and met Jiang Ruan's questioning gaze: "Do you think Secretary Qin is a bit slow in doing things?"

Jiang Ruan: "..."

This is the normal procedure.

"Don't you find this strange?" Qin Jiangye leaned against the car door.

Jiang Ruan looked puzzled.

What's strange about it?

“This road is an internal road, and all the cars that can pass through here recognize my license plate.” Qin Jiangye crossed his arms and his eyes were slightly upturned. “They recognize it and still deliberately crash into it. Guess why.”

Jiang Ruan quickly realized: "Because of me?"

Qin Jiangye snapped his fingers: "My little cousin is really smart."

Jiang Ruan subconsciously looked out of the car, her gaze pausing when she saw the woman in a suit standing with Secretary Qin outside the car.

Xiao He? ??

How could it be her?

Qin Jiangye noticed her expression.

Before he could ask, Secretary Qin walked over to them and said through the car window, "Boss, Miss Jiang, the driver of the vehicle that caused the accident wants to apologize to you in person."

Qin Jiangye looked at Jiang Ruan.

Her attitude was very clear: if she agreed, she would let the other party come over; if she didn't agree, she would just go through the claims process.

Jiang Ruan didn't say anything, but took out her phone, found Xiao He's number, and dialed it.

beep--

One sound after another came.

There was no movement from the people outside the car, nor was there any sound of a cell phone ringing.

"Ask her in return, would it work if we bumped into her and then apologized?" Qin Jiangye almost instantly realized that Jiang Ruan had a relationship with the person outside, and casually said to Secretary Qin.

Secretary Qin: "Okay."

Secretary Qin repeated his words verbatim. After hearing this, Xiao He looked past him and into their car. The glaring headlights made it impossible for her to see what was inside, but Jiang Ruan took in her appearance.

A few years ago, Xiao He looked like a college graduate fresh out of school—naive, innocent, and kind.

But the elite in front of me is capable, taciturn, and efficient in his work.

She simply couldn't imagine that this was a person.

"It's all taken care of." Secretary Qin got into the car and started it, demonstrating extremely high efficiency.

Qin Jiangye glanced at Jiang Ruan and asked, "Do you know her?"

Jiang Ruan: "She looks a lot like an old friend."

Qin Jiangye's mind raced, and he quickly came to a conclusion: "The driver who caused the accident that led to my aunt's death?"

Jiang Ruan: "!"

A hint of surprise flashed across Jiang Ruan's eyes.

I never expected him to guess it.

"Secretary Qin," Qin Jiangye said casually at the end of his sentence, "Is our car resistant to collisions?"

Secretary Qin: "...I was bumped."

Qin Jiangye said it as if he were talking about eating: "Turn around and crash back, but control your strength so no one dies."

Secretary Qin rarely complied: "Okay."

Before Jiang Ruan could react, Qin Jiangye leaned over, pulled over the seatbelt, and fastened it for her, saying as he did so, "Secretary Qin has a bad temper and is very vindictive. The impact might be a bit strong later, so we need to fasten our seatbelts."

Jiang Ruan: "?"

The next second.

"Bang!"

The car crashed into the rear of Xiao He's car, and the rear bumper was knocked off.

Less than two seconds later, Xiao He turned off the engine and got out of the car. After seeing that it was Qin Jiangye's car, he didn't say anything, restarted the car, and drove away, disappearing from their sight in a short while.

"Thank you." Jiang Ruan knew that Qin Jiangye was standing up for her.

Regardless of his motives, this time it was ultimately for her.

Qin Jiangye didn't say much, but simply asked his secretary to drive Jiang Ruan home.
