The atmosphere in the car was oppressive.
Qu Su glanced at Lang Que coldly and said, "Turn right in front and let me out of the car."
Unexpectedly, the man grabbed her against the wall of the car. His smile did not reach his eyes. "You must have been tired last night, right?"
"Be a good girl, go home and have a rest. Stop thinking improperly." Lang Que held the woman's jawbone tightly and raised his eyebrows slightly.
As the scenery outside the window flashed by, the Huo's Group building came into view.
Qu Su's thoughts were evident.
"Let me off!" The spot Lang Que touched was tingling and itchy.
Qu Su smiled and said, "Miss Su's design exhibition was truly disappointing."
"Why did you prevent me from joining Huo's Group? Is it because you feared that she, your mistress, would be defeated by me, your ex-wife, and thus embarrass you, Mr. Lang?"
She had always been a sharp-tongued girl. And now, after being barred from going to the Huo's Group this morning, she felt even more distressed.
Lang Que frowned, "We haven't finalized our divorce yet."
"I won't allow my wife to have anything to do with Huo Jingqi." The man's voice was filled with suppressed anger.
"As long as you are my wife, you are expected to fulfill the duties of Mrs. Lang."
"Lang family will not tolerate any promiscuous women."
Qu Su was shocked, but she didn't show it. She looked into his eyes coldly and said, "Is that so? Well, it's a simple task then. Just expedite the signing of the divorce agreement."
These words obviously irritated the man.
Lang Que subconsciously tightened his grip, and Qu Su groaned in pain.
The fury in the man's gaze gradually subsided, giving way to tranquility and serenity, "Do you truly have such a strong desire to divorce me?"
His slender fingers caressed her delicate neck, leaving Qu Su gasping for breath.
After Qu Su's persistent struggle, Lang Que finally relinquished his control.
"Be a good girl and don't look for Huo Jingqi. I can give you whatever you want."
There was extreme attachment in the man's voice.
Qu Su took a deep breath.
A wave of hot air engulfed her ears, making her feel like she was on the verge of indulging in it.
It was only when she met his icy gaze that she barely managed to say, "I want the design rights for the upcoming quarter of Lang's Group's Design Department. Can you grant me that opportunity?"
There was silence in the car.
Qu Su was the first to break the silence, " Lang Que, you're just saying nice things."
"It would be even more delightful if we could converse so affectionately in bed." As a married couple for three years, she knew how to inflict emotional pain upon Lang Que.
For a moment, she was almost immersed in his captivation.
"Don't worry. Even if you offer me the opportunity, I am not interested in it." Qu Su replied nonchalantly, shrugging her shoulders. A disdainful smile curved on her crimson lips, "I have no intention of divorcing and being branded as a pigeon."
This time, Qu Su really wanted to make achievements.
She wanted to show the world that she was definitely not a woman who could only rely on men.
"Stop the car!"
"We're heading back home."
Two voices sounded almost at the same time.
Lang Que looked at Qu Su with his sharp eyes, while Qu Su glared back without hesitation.
She slowly moved the man's hand away.
Qu Su slowly rolled down the car window while in a fierce struggle to free herself from the man's tight grasp.
The car continued to travel forward. Qu Su lifted her chin and declared, "I'll make a leap if you refuse to halt."
For the first time in her life, she wanted to do something successful.
Especially after seeing the works of Su Nian, Qu Su became more and more restless.
Seeing the firmness in her clear almond-shaped eyes, Lang Que knew that he could not stop her.
"You will only have half an hour."
The car stopped slowly. Lang Que lay on the back of the chair and said casually, "If you are simply looking to discuss collaboration, half an hour should suffice."
He signaled the driver to pull over the car beneath the Huo's Group building.
With a menacing smile, the man warned, "If you're not back in thirty minutes..."
"You don't want your future boss to have a bad impression of you, do you?"
Lang Que was met with the resounding thud of a closed door as a response.
After getting out of the car, Qu Su gradually reduced her pace.
Did he threaten her?
She didn't buy it at all!
She dawdled to the top floor. By the time she arrived on the top floor, half of Lang Que's designated time had already passed.
Huo Jingqi obviously had no intention of getting down to business with her.
He crossed his legs and said with an unruly smile, "Miss Qu, it seems that Mr. Lang cares a lot about you."
As the owner of this building, nothing could be hidden from him.
Huo Jingqi received the news as soon as the car entered the underground parking lot.
"It doesn't seem to have anything to do with our cooperation." Qu Su glanced at her wristwatch and calmly replied, "Mr. Huo, our discussion pertains to our business partnership, not personal emotions."
Qu Su didn't like to talk about personal emotions with strangers.
"Mr. Huo, surely you have gathered ample information about me overnight?" Her radiant aura exuded unyielding confidence, "Therefore, you should know that in terms of both cost-effectiveness and the execution of design works, I surpass Miss Su by a significant margin."
"You're a businessman. You should have figured out how to choose the highest score, right?"
Yesterday, Huo Jingqi had merely made a promise to her in order to provoke Lang Que. But today, he was willing to sit down and talk to her in detail, which proved that Qu Su was indeed attractive to him!
Although Qu Su got married right after graduating from college, her achievements during her time at college were impressive.
In the past three years, Qu Su immersed herself in food, drinks, and partying, but she never neglected the essential skills she should be honing.
Everyone only recognized her as Mrs. Lang, known for her reputation, but not as a designer.
Glancing around at Qu Su, Huo Jingqi chuckled.
With clenched fists, he pressed them against his thin lips.
The long-prepared contract was placed on the table. "Miss Qu is quite astute. I am confident that our collaboration will be delightful."
"If the wedding dress design is successful this time, our work will certainly progress smoothly in the future..."
Without a doubt, what Huo Jingqi said reassured Qu Su.
Upon hearing this, Qu Su couldn't help but smile.
It had been a long time since she had experienced such pure joy, deep within her heart.
"Don't worry, I won't let you down, Mr. Huo." Qu Su signed the contract without hesitation.
However, she didn't expect Huo Jingqi to be this "efficient".
She hadn't even gotten out of the parking lot.
The collaboration between Qu Su and the Huo's Group became an online sensation.
However, in front of her name, Qu Su, a Mrs. Lang was added as a gimmick.
As a member of an entertainment company, Huo Jingqi is good at utilizing the value of people to the extreme!
However, she was determined to establish her identity as Qu Su solely through her design works.
She returned to the eerily silent car.
Qu Su casually glanced at it and noticed that the news had also captured Lang Que's attention on his mobile phone screen.
The atmosphere inside the car felt colder compared to when she had left.
Lang Que looked carefully at the woman's raised eyebrows.
It was the first time that he had seen Qu Su smile so happily.
Did he truly commit a wrongdoing?
Lang Que suppressed the doubts in his heart, leaving only a cold and unfeeling expression, "You used more than half an hour."
"Maybe it's because I had a good chat with Mr. Huo that I didn't notice the time."
Qu Su glanced at the wristband again.
The moment she saw that the man was depressed, she was in a better mood.
