The cleaning staff probably didn't know Qin Hui had returned and continued to have the holiday. Qin Hui was busy these past few days and didn't have time to deal with this matter, so she just left it for now.
Actually, this girl is quite sloppy and a bit careless about details. She just behaves well in front of her in-laws and is very clever in maintaining a respectable appearance.
They have both high emotional intelligence and high IQ.
Chen Ming smiled and placed the dog on the sofa. Cerberus rubbed against the soft sofa, then squeezed into a gap and poked its head out.
He took out a trash can, swept all the trash into it, then went to the kitchen, took out a rag and cleaned it up, then opened the refrigerator and looked at the food inside.
Besides some fast food, there's a large piece of beef and fish... and why is there a lobster head too?
He took out the beef, the marbling of which seemed rather luxurious.
But unfortunately, in his hands, it can only become a home-style dish. After all, he's not a master chef. He thinks that a stew of radish, green onion, and beef is a delicacy.
He smiled and said to Cerberus—
"Cerberus, would you like some stewed beef?"
"I want to eat!"
She loves any food her master cooks. She was originally lured in by Chen Ming with delicious food and stayed on the premises; she's a little foodie.
Chen Ming stir-fried the ingredients and added scallion segments. The scallion segments for stewing beef don't need to be chopped too finely, and the same goes for the radish; larger pieces are fine too. The beef, however, is cut into small slices.
There wasn't actually a radish here; he took it out of his own spatial bag.
Simmer the beef over low heat until tender.
Open your phone and send a message to Psyduck.
"Where are you now? Are you done with your work?"
"I've been annoyed for hours at the hotel."
He received a response quickly, which puzzled him, and he teased—
"Are you just playing on your phone and slacking off?"
"No, I didn't."
"So you've been waiting for me to message you?"
"..."
Qin Hui looked at her phone screen and could almost see his smug expression. Her previously drowsy and bored expression immediately perked up.
"This guy..."
She can be this perceptive occasionally, and when she cares about someone, this perceptiveness is very heartwarming. But usually, she uses it to tease her, which is quite nasty.

"Mr. Qin, it's about our project..."
"Mr. Qin, here's an idea, what do you think..."
"Mr. Qin, did you enjoy the food tonight?"
……
Qin Hui was somewhat annoyed. In fact, some banquets were not important, but it was not good to never attend them. Occasionally, one could expand one's network and connections.
However, many people try to curry favor with her and ask her for investments, but she usually just hands these things over to Sister Li, which is pointless.
The big decisions were made a long time ago over tea with some old friends; it was just a matter of a few words.
This proves the saying: large meetings don't discuss business, but small meetings are the most effective.
If there are really important matters, it's best to make a decision as soon as possible; other things can be dealt with later.
Now she didn't want to be disturbed at all. Holding her phone, she sat in a chair, her white fingers tapping incessantly on the screen, her face showing a serious and focused expression.
Those who didn't know better would have thought she was making some important contact. Gradually, no one dared to approach her anymore. Although this kind of occasion was a good place to find investment, one still needed to be mindful of others' feelings.
Even Sister Li frowned and walked over, secretly glancing at Qin Hui's phone, and asked—
"What happened? What went wrong?"
"what?"
Qin Hui quickly composed herself, a hint of panic flashing across her face for a fleeting moment, but she quickly masked it so no one would notice.
However, as her secretary, Sister Li was very observant of her boss's changing expressions. She raised an eyebrow and said—
"The thing I'm going to talk to you about without mentioning me, could it be that there's a problem with a government project?"
Only in the most urgent situations will Qin Hui be notified directly, which usually means the situation is beyond repair, and at that point, it's a really big deal.
Qin Hui waved her hand and said—
"No, no, it's just... never mind, don't worry about it."
"..."
Sister Li frowned slightly, feeling that her boss had really become strange after the holiday. He gave everyone red envelopes as soon as he came back and even became an angel investor for a few kids... Although most of these things would be pushed onto Sister Li, increasing her workload.
But for her, it was just a drop in the ocean.
These little things seem to indicate that their boss is in a really good mood. She used to come to work with a stern face, but now she always has a smile on her face, which makes the managers who report to her feel flattered.
They even invited me to have tea.
It was a bit scary. Those who had been invited for tea rushed to her to inquire about the situation, thinking they were about to be exiled to Africa. That's why the boss was behaving so strangely.
Sister Li glanced at her boss a couple more times, but ultimately said nothing. She probably just had a couple of sudden bouts of mental instability, and then she'd be fine.
Qin Hui noticed that Sister Li had walked up to her, indicating that she was going to deal with others. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then opened her phone and said—
"Honestly, you're disturbing my work. You're such a femme fatale..."
The term "femme fatale" refers to Chen Ming.
Qin Hui chuckled softly, her legs in high heels crossed over each other. Under the cover of her secretary, and in a quiet place where she could chat with him, nothing could be better.
She typed—
"Beauty is a curse."
"what?"
Chen Ming scratched his head, somewhat confused.
Qin Hui said—
"You're constantly bothering me at work. I've turned down so many project meetings because of you."
Although I didn't want to hear it anyway, basically in the current situation, it's good if one out of a hundred entrepreneurs succeeds. Of course, this doesn't include small businesses like Chen Ming's.
However, if I'm in a good mood, I might as well invest a little; after all, it's not like I'm short of money.
Chen Ming smiled and said—
"So you're using your husband as a shield because you don't want to talk about it? You're such a clever little devil."
"It was your fault to begin with, and you're still trying to deny it!"
"I have a beef stew project here, would you like to listen to it, Mr. Qin?"
"Are you eating beef?"
Qin Hui was unaware that Chen Ming was already at her house. She thought he was having dinner with his family, and couldn't help but feel a little envious.
She really wanted to eat with everyone, but who wanted to be here? Even though there were lots of expensive dishes, she couldn't eat to her heart's content and had to maintain a certain demeanor at all times...
It's still necessary to be a bit more proper in social situations.
Otherwise, having the power to do whatever you want doesn't mean you can be unruly, just like Gu Qing in the past, who openly and blatantly ate and drank cola at a banquet, drinking cola with steak, which made the head chef's face turn green.
But no one dared to say anything.
Qin Hui could do that, but to be honest, it would be too embarrassing, so she wouldn't.
She maintains a haughty and aloof image, but only when she is with him can she relax and bicker with him like an ordinary girl.
Eating with everyone, I experienced a warmth that I couldn't find here...
Ah, I want to go home...
Go back to him.
President Qin lowered her eyes slightly, and her excited expression slowly turned into a somewhat melancholy one; the emotions of a girl in love always fluctuate so much.
Chen Ming typed—
"Then come back."
"Hey?"
Qin Hui looked at her phone and realized that she had unknowingly told him that she wanted to go home, and had become dependent on him.
She said—
"Easy for you to say. There's still a lot of work to do. I might not be able to get away until tonight, when everyone will be asleep."
So I'll just make do at the villa for the night... It's strange, I feel like I'm "making do" staying in a big villa, but I feel comfortable squeezing into a small room with him.
I've started acting a little strange.
Qin Hui stared at the chat box, and became a little anxious as Chen Ming's replies became longer, until he sent a voice message.
She put the phone to her ear and heard what he said—
"It's okay, I'll always wait for you to come back."
Well……
As Qin Hui listened to his gentle voice, she felt as if she had been shot in the heart, and a bittersweet feeling welled up inside her.
Their toes rubbed together, and they almost shyly made a strange movement, wanting to hug a pillow and roll around on the bed...
Calm down, calm down...
Qin Hui took two deep breaths, trying to put on a serious face. If he knew about her shy reaction, he would definitely be smug.
Fortunately, her expression wasn't visible here, so she could firmly state that she didn't care about him at all.
