CHAPTER 346: CHAPTER 346: WHAT BACK DOOR? IT’S JUST OUR OWN DOOR (6)

Tang Yanqi remained silent for a long time, while Sheng Jianan leisurely spoke up, "Do you think I’m giving you special treatment?"

"..."

Isn’t it obvious?

"Don’t worry, I’m not giving you special treatment."

Sheng Jianan chuckled lightly and continued, "This is a family privilege."

Tang Yanqi felt embarrassed on one end, while on the other end, Qiao Zi listened to their big boss shamelessly claim this and felt three lines of black appear on her forehead.

Since the notice had already been sent out, Tang Yanqi decided not to ask Sheng Jianan to retract it. Just as Sheng Jianan said, he doesn’t take in just anyone, and besides, this was just an internship; becoming a full-time employee would depend on her own abilities.

Qi Cheng and the others were naturally happy, clamoring to treat Tang Yanqi to a meal.

At four in the afternoon, the four girls left K University. Tang Yanqi sent Sheng Jianan a message but didn’t receive a reply. She didn’t mind and left the school gate with her roommates, planning to shop around nearby before going for dinner.

Sheng Jianan had an important meeting in the afternoon. By the time he came out of the conference room, it was nearly six o’clock. He pulled out his phone to call Tang Yanqi and saw the message she had sent.

[Roommates are treating me to dinner tonight, I’ll be back late.]

Young Master Sheng frowned. His mind was keen, and he instantly figured out the reason behind this "dinner treat," feeling a bit displeased at heart.

So he arranged things conveniently for them, and they ended up taking his wife away?

She was dining with others tonight, so who would he dine with?

With a stern face, Sheng Jianan didn’t hesitate and immediately dialed Tang Yanqi’s number. It rang until the cold prompt sounded before he put away his phone.

Qiao Zi entered with the just-delivered documents for Sheng Jianan to sign, only to see the big boss with a gloomy face, and the atmosphere around him seemed a bit colder.

Instinctively, Qiao Zi glanced at Sheng Jianan’s still connected phone and immediately understood. The big boss had called someone who didn’t pick up, hence the stern face.

"Boss, this document needs your signature."

Qiao Zi handed over the document, Sheng Jianan quickly glanced at it, and signed his name at the end.

"Anything else?"

"No more."

Qiao Zi collected the document. She wasn’t a gossiping person, but seeing Sheng Jianan looking like a storm cloud, she couldn’t help but add, "Boss, Young Madam might just not have heard it. Being in a relationship, privacy and personal freedom are important for ease."

After speaking, Qiao Zi noticed Sheng Jianan gave her a strange look, her heart instantly tightened, thinking she’d gotten into trouble.

She touched her nose, "Boss, I’ll head out first."

"Wait."

Sheng Jianan’s voice suddenly rang out, sending a chill down Qiao Zi’s spine. She turned back nervously, "Boss...is there anything else?"

Sheng Jianan still wore that strange expression, staring at Qiao Zi until she felt uncomfortable all over. After a long pause, he spoke, "You women, like... freedom?"

Qiao Zi was stunned, making sure she wasn’t hearing things, confirming that the boss who always seemed to look down on others was actually asking in an inquisitive tone. Only then did Qiao Zi slowly respond, "When in a relationship, women hope their partners respect them and give them certain personal space. This is also a form of respect."

After speaking, Qiao Zi glanced at Sheng Jianan’s expression, hesitating whether to continue. She heard Sheng Jianan’s calm tone, "Go on."
