CHAPTER 84: CHAPTER 81: YOU, WILL HAVE A HARD TIME GRADUATING

Suddenly, a pleasant, magnetic voice filled the space. "Why don’t you wait for me until noon, and we can have lunch together?"

Hua Xiaomo turned around and rejected him without a second thought. "No need, President Qi. I still have some things I need to do..."

"Are you thinking of going to that McDonald’s again to toil away?" Qi Longbing asked. "So, we’re back to this again."

"Actually... that’s not really toiling away, President Qi," Hua Xiaomo said with a bit of a drawl. She was truly speechless.

She just wanted to do her own thing! Why did he have to meddle so much? It was so annoying!

"Come work for me. Be my secretary..."

Hua Xiaomo frowned upon hearing this, sighed, and said, "I really don’t know anything, President Qi. I truly appreciate you giving me this opportunity that others would fight tooth and nail for, but I really don’t want to waste your money!"

I really don’t want to waste your money...

Qi Longbing thought about it. It seemed she really hadn’t wasted a single cent of his.

From the time they signed the contract until now, she hadn’t accepted the card he offered her, and the dress he’d sent her was returned to Yu Bao the very next day.

Plus, for meals, she mostly ate at the villa.

Come to think of it, she really hadn’t spent a single penny of his.

Oh, that’s not right. At least he had covered the five hundred thousand shortfall in medical fees for her mother. Of course, this was also part of the contract agreement, so it had nothing to do with wasting money.

"Hua Xiaomo, if you keep acting like this, you’ll probably have a hard time graduating and getting your diploma," Qi Longbing stated, a corner of his sexy lips tilting up, a faintly sinister glint in the depths of his blue eyes.

His tone was neither heavy nor light, neither clear nor vague, yet it carried absolute force and control.

It would be a joke if he, the distinguished President Qi of Qi Imperial Court, couldn’t even handle a little woman with such a difficult personality and stubborn temper. He might as well give up on the business world entirely!

As long as he willed it, no one had any room to refute him; they could only walk through life step by step according to his plans.

That’s what control is—absolute, compulsory, domineering power!

So, he would soon make her understand what it meant to be fawningly obedient...

Sure enough, Hua Xiaomo was taken aback. She looked at him and asked, "What do you mean?"

What did her graduation and diploma have to do with him? Besides, as long as she got through these three months, she could get her diploma and start working formally.

But she had severely underestimated the man before her—handsome and suave on the outside, but wicked and domineering on the inside. Little did she know, from the very next step of signing the contract, he had already been controlling the direction of her life.

"I’ve already met with your Principal Wang and asked about your situation. You are currently in your internship period. Of course, if you don’t perform well, you definitely won’t get your diploma," Qi Longbing said slowly, a gentle yet insidious smile spreading across his handsome face.

Seeing this, Hua Xiaomo felt her scalp tingle.

"You—you actually went to see our principal? What on earth do you want, Qi Longbing?" Hua Xiaomo burst out, her patience wearing thin. This guy was too scheming!

Qi Longbing smiled elegantly, then took a sip from the cold coffee on the table. "I’m doing this for your own good, Hua Xiaomo."

While speaking, Qi Longbing nonchalantly pulled open the drawer in front of him, took out a certificate in a red leather cover, and flashed it in front of her. "How about it? Didn’t expect this, did you? This is your graduation diploma!"
