Chapter 2: Chapter 001: Stunning Beauty CEO_2
Creak!
The door opened, and in walked a beautiful woman dressed in a black business suit. Upon seeing the enraged Murong Fei, she spoke softly, "President, the old master has already arrived at the Murong Group's company, what do you think..."
"He's arrived so soon?"
Upon hearing this, the angry Murong Fei suddenly calmed down, pondered for a moment, and said, "Then let's wait. This matter is very important to Grandpa. We'll talk about it later, we'll know the truth soon. If he's a fraud, not only will we kick him out, but we'll also call the police and have him arrested!"
After Murong Fei finished speaking, she glanced at Qin Tian and thought to herself, you fraudster, if you dare to come deceive the Murong Group, then this time, you're dead!
One hour ago, Qin Tian had been making a fuss at the headquarters of Murong Group, wanting to see Murong Bei. A few security guards almost came to blows with him over a disagreement, and it was at this moment that Murong Fei happened to return from outside and witnessed the scene.
As the president of the group, Murong Fei didn't want to bother with such a minor issue, but then Qin Tian took out a black Jade Talisman, and she couldn't ignore it anymore.
This black Jade Talisman, shaped like the Qiankun Eight Diagram, was something Murong Fei had been searching for since she came of age. Of course, it was at the request of her grandfather, Murong Bei.
She didn't know why her grandfather was so insistent on finding this Jade Talisman, but since it was her grandfather's wish, Murong Fei naturally tried her best to search for it.
She had sent people out to look for it for nearly 20 years, during which time they found a dozen similar objects, but they were all rejected by Murong Bei, who said they weren't the Jade Talisman he was looking for.
This time, could the Jade Talisman in this man's hand be real?
"Impossible, how could he possibly have what Grandpa has been looking for 20 years, it's absolutely impossible!"
Murong Fei inadvertently glanced at Qin Tian again and realized, upon closer inspection, that he was actually quite good-looking, with a well-defined face and a unique masculine charm.
Furthermore, there was a strange aura emanating from Qin Tian, which made Murong Fei feel that he was different from the average Jiang Hu con artist.
"Even if he's not a Jiang Hu swindler, he's definitely not a good person!" Murong Fei thought as she looked at Qin Tian, remembering his rudeness from earlier, growing angrier the more she thought about it, "At the very least, he's a big pervert!"
As she was muttering to herself, Qin Tian happened to look over. Startled, Murong Fei quickly diverted her gaze, feeling her heart thumping erratically and her heartbeat speeding up.
Moreover, Murong Fei felt her cheeks getting warm and an unpleasant feeling surfaced in her mind: she was blushing...
You should know, as the president of the Murong Group, Murong Fei was no stranger to good-looking men and various second-generation rich and powerful. She handled those people with ease. But this time, to her surprise, she was blushing... and for a stranger, no less...
"Haha, and you say you don't like me, you're even blushing now, haha..." Qin Tian laughed inappropriately at the side.
"Go to hell!"
Murong Fei glared at the gloating Qin Tian and cursed angrily.
Feeling a bit self-conscious, she turned to her secretary, Wang Yu, and asked, "Wang Yu, am I... am I blushing?"
Wang Yu had been following Murong Fei for many years and had never seen President Murong Fei lose her composure like this. She hesitated for a moment and then nodded slightly, "Yes... a little."
Murong Fei felt even more embarrassed, took a deep breath, and tried to compose herself as quickly as possible.
Just then, an old man dressed in a white gown and with a head of white hair hurried into the office, using a walking stick. He left his entourage outside the office.
"The black Jade Talisman, where's the black Jade Talisman, let me see it quickly!" The old man appeared to be at least sixty years old, looked in good spirits, but his left leg seemed crippled, necessitating the use of a walking stick.
"Grandpa, don't panic, it's always like this, hasty and yet it turns out to be disappointing every time. I think it's probably fake this time as well," Murong Fei quickly walked up to help Murong Bei, "I think this person is up to no good. The black Jade Talisman we are looking for, it's impossible for him to have it. However, to be cautious, I still called for you, but, Grandpa, please don't get your hopes up, or you'll be heartbroken again shortly."
Murong Bei looked very excited and walked up to Qin Tian. After giving Qin Tian a look, he smiled and said, "I think there's something in his look, hmm, where's the Jade Talisman, let me see it quickly..."
Qin Tian said, "Old man, are you Murong Bei?"
Murong Bei was taken aback, "I am, why, I heard you came specifically to find me?"
"Hmm, my master sent me to find you, and he gave me a black Jade Talisman," Qin Tian, believing that Murong Bei didn't seem to be lying, took out the Jade Talisman.
Murong Bei didn't reach for the Jade Talisman, but instead asked, "Your master? What's your master's name?"
"Uh... that old coot, he never seemed to mention his name to me. I just know his surname is Cao..."
"Cao Taiji! Cao Taiji! Haha, let me see the Jade Talisman!"
Murong Bei was incredibly excited, and directly snatched the Jade Talisman from Qin Tian's hand to inspect it closely.
After about a dozen seconds had passed, Murong Bei's trembling hands clutched the black Jade Talisman, shouting with joy, "It's this, it's this! This is it! This is the thing I've been searching for 20 years! Found it! Haha, finally found it!"
With that, Murong Bei also took out a jade amulet from his person, which was white.
The two Jade Talismans looked incredibly similar. Murong Bei skillfully fitted them together, forming a black and white Ying Yang Taiji symbol!
They fit together seamlessly!
"Qiankun Eight Diagram, the twin forces of black and white; the fusion of Yin and Yang, dominating the world! Haha, Old Black... you've finally made it!"
Murong Bei laughed heartily with excitement. Then, turning his gaze to Qin Tian, he asked with a puzzled expression, "Young man, since you called Cao Taiji master, tell me, how is your master? Is he well? Right, why didn't he come?"
"The old guy probably guessed you'd ask this, so he sent me here. He instructed me to tell you two things. First, he gave me a letter for you."
As he spoke, Qin Tian took out a letter from his person and handed it to Murong Bei.
Murong Bei held the envelope, saw the handwriting on it, and nodded excitedly, "It's his handwriting, such familiar handwriting..."
Upon opening the envelope, Murong Bei read the letter carefully. As he read, he actually began to cry, tears streaming down his face with great emotion.
"Grandpa, what's wrong? Please don't cry..." Murong Fei, who was quite filial, quickly stepped in to wipe away Murong Bei's tears.
"Hey, old man, what's your relationship with my old man? You're crying fiercely..."
"Shut your mouth!"
Before Qin Tian could finish speaking, Murong Fei turned her head and glared fiercely at Qin Tian. Their eyes met and Qin Tian felt a shiver in his heart. This ice-cold beauty really had a murderous look in her eyes.
The office quieted down as Murong Bei, alone and excited, finished reading the letter. He took a deep breath and sighed, "So, he has finally gone back, huh..."
Murong Bei's eyes suddenly fell on Qin Tian and he asked, "Young man, what's your name?"
"My name is Qin Tian. Qin as in Emperor Qin Shihuang and Tian as in invincible under heaven," Qin Tian said.
"Invincible under heaven, really shameless..." Murong Fei murmured under her breath.
"Qin... Tian... Tsk tsk, it must be this reason! Young… well, I'll just call you Qin Tian. Come, come, let's sit down and talk, Wang Yu, why don't you go make some tea for Qin Tian? Remember, use our company's top-grade Dragon Well tea for the most distinguished guests! Fei'er, you too, Qin Tian's come all this way, why don't you offer him a seat to rest for a while? Letting him stand like this, that's not very polite of you..."
"Grandpa, aren't you being too partial? He's just an outsider, I'm your granddaughter..."
The way Murong Bei treated Qin Tian not only surprised Wang Yu but also dumbfounded Murong Fei, thinking to herself that her grandfather, who always shunned the public eye and was bluntly straightforward with people, even indifferent to the mayor's visits, had never been so warm and respectful to anyone. And this guy was just a young man from the countryside!
Murong Bei enthusiastically pulled Qin Tian to sit down, while Murong Fei, bearing a grudge, reluctantly took a seat beside them.
"Hey, didn't you say you had two things to do here? The first was to deliver a letter to my grandfather, what's the second thing?" Murong Fei asked curiously.
Seeing how enthusiastic Murong Bei was towards Qin Tian made Murong Fei hate Qin Tian even more. She thought to herself that he'd better finish what he came to do quickly and leave, hopefully never to appear in front of her again!
"Oh, the second thing. Old man, my master sent me here to take your granddaughter as my wife..."
Qin Tian blurted out and then suddenly froze. Granddaughter? If the stunning beauty just called Murong Bei "grandpa," then doesn't that mean—
Shit, I'm supposed to marry this woman who's as cold as ice!?
(If you think I've written well, brothers and sisters, please add this to your bookshelf and follow. Hong Qi would be deeply grateful. To those who follow and reward, Hong Qi will marry them off!)
