1023 Her Decision 6 (1/2)

Cheng Qingchong took a quick glance at the man before her and nodded in return.

”Take a sit.” Jin Ze pointed at the chair across from him before picking up the pot to pour two cups of tea. Cheng Qingchong followed the orders wordlessly but obediently.

Jin Ze pushed a cup of tea to her and kindly offered, ”Take a taste of this quality tea. It's Long Jin given by a friend when I visited Hang Zhou a few days ago. It's not bad.”

”Thank you.” Cheng Qingchong picked up the cup and took a symbolic sip.

Jin Ze smiled, not at all offended by her cautiousness and formality. He picked up his own cup and finished it in one gulp. Then he spoke in a tone that sounded like he was talking with an old friend. ”Qingchong, thinking about it, we have not seen each other for almost one year already, yes?”

Cheng Qingchong smiled and said, ”That sounds about right.”

Jin Ze toyed with the empty cup in his hand and said in a manner of observation, ”By the way, if I'm not mistaken, this is the first time you came to me actively, yes?”

Cheng Qingchong lowered her head and didn't answer.

Jin Ze smiled to himself but didn't linger around that topic. He placed the cup down, leaned back on the chair, and stared at Cheng Qingchong's face for some time before asking, ”So, tell me, what help do you need from me?”

Jin Ze's directness unsettled Cheng Qingchong slightly, but she recovered quickly. She said in a calm tone, ”It's like this CEO Jin, I wish to ask you for an investment.”

Jin Ze looked at the tea pot like he didn't even hear her. Then, just as Cheng Qingchong was about to elaborate, he poured himself another cup and said, ”Is it for Qin Yinan's company?”

His directness once more made Cheng Qingchong's tongue stuck in her throat.

However, Jin Ze continued normally as if this was just a conversation about the weather outside, ”If it's about him, go and get a divorce with him first before you come to talk to me.”
