Chapter 454 - The First Song of Qin (27) (2/2)

The girl wasn’t as overbearing as before when faced with the secretary’s questioning. She seemed a bit anxious, probably afraid she would get kicked out.

“Qin-zong is in a meeting right now. It should end in 20 minutes.” The secretary said to Shi Sheng before lowering her head to get back to her work.

Shi Sheng nodded before sweeping a gaze at the young lady. “Come on in ah!”

“Ah? I can?” The girl peeked inside the office door that was being held open by Shi Sheng.

‘I thought I’d be chased out. This Jiejie is really good!’

The girl looked around the office in curiosity. It was well-lit and spacious. Filled bookshelves made up a large majority of the furniture.

The girl inquisitively scanned the shelves.

“Eh? Qin-zong has this book too?” She seemed as if she had discovered a whole new continent as she pulled a book off the shelf. “Aaah! It’s actually an autographed version! Even I don’t have one!!!”

Shi Sheng looked at the book in her hand. ‘That book… Why does it look a lot like one of mine?’

“I really like this author Dada.” The girl raised the book in the air and ran over. “Jiejie, do you know this Dada? Her books are awesome! Every story is so compelling. The only thing is, she likes to leave cliffhangers… And she only published two books but they sold pretty well.”

‘The author you’re talking about is me.’

The two books that Shi Sheng had published weren’t finished either, but compared to the other books, they at least had sufficient length.

“Do you think CEO Qin would give this book to me?” The girl’s face was filled with expectation, having completely forgotten that she had come here to see Qin Ge.

“Nope.” That was the book Qin Ge was specially keeping for himself—how could he just give it away?

“Ah? So petty…” The girl complained as she set the book back, her gaze lingering reluctantly. ‘I want an autographed version too. Why did Dada only sign 20 books? They can’t even be bought with money anymore!’

Shi Sheng got up and searched around the shelves. She remembered that her editor had sent her a few copies.

Shi Sheng raised her head to look at the books that were on the top shelf. ‘Which idiot put them so high up?’

Just as Shi Sheng was about to move a stool over to get it, an arm stretched out from behind her and plucked the book off the shelf.

“Your meeting’s over?” Shi Sheng took it from him in a natural manner.

Qin Ge had entered the room at some point. The young lady looked stunned as she sat on the sofa.

“En.” Qin Ge swept a glance at the girl before saying in an unhappy voice, “Where’d you get the girl from this time?”

Qin Ge knew about her soft spot for cute girls.

“Please. This one’s looking for you.”

“And you brought her in anyway?” Qin Ge’s gaze turned a bit dangerous. “You’re not afraid that I’ll fall for someone else?”

‘Doesn’t she feel threatened at all?’

“What’s there to be afraid of? If you fall for someone else, I’ll just kill the both of you.” Shi Sheng spoke lightly.

Qin Ge felt helpless. ‘With how violent you are, I’m pretty much the only guy who can stand you…’

Shi Sheng made her way to the desk and picked up a pen, signing her autograph on the book.

“Now that you’ve met him and even gotten the book, go on home.” Shi Sheng handed it over to the girl.

The latter was still utterly stupefied. She looked at the book, before looking back at Shi Sheng.

Half a minute later…

“AAAH! You’re Dada! I actually met you in person!!!” The young lady was very excited.

Qin Ge, “…” ‘Wasn’t she looking for me? Why do I feel like she was just here for my wifey?’

“Dada, when are you going to resolve the cliffhanger in Beauty’s Soul? I really want to see the ending!”

“Dada, who is your favourite character? …Aaaaah! He’s my favourite too! So handsome!”

“Dada, how about I treat you to a meal?”
