These women are all in cahoots with Xiao Junlin!
What's most infuriating is that although her sister says she can't make a move on her, He Qinzhou has come up here openly now, and she hasn't stopped him at all.
Just outrageous!
"Sister Lan?"
Seeing that He Lan seemed to be lost in thought, He Qinzhou could only helplessly reach out and pinch her buttocks.
"what?!"
He Lan woke up instantly, her face flushed. She quickly tried to help He Qinzhou up, but despite her efforts, she couldn't lift him up and could only let him rest his head on her lower abdomen...
“He…Qinzhou, please get up first.”
"Ok."
He Qinzhou pursed his lips, braced his hands on her waist behind him, and then straightened up. Facing the playful and ambiguous gazes of the crowd, He Qinzhou remained calm and looked at He Na, saying, "Sister Na, you're not being fair. You pushed me down and didn't even help me up..."
"Hehehe"
He Na grinned from ear to ear, squinted and raised an eyebrow, saying ambiguously, "But you seem to be enjoying it quite a bit?"
"That can't be."
He Qinzhou shook his head and said righteously, "Sister Na, you know me, the only person I like... is my older sister!"
"Ok?"
Sensing He Qinzhou's implied meaning, the women immediately turned their gazes to He Lan, nearly causing her to explode with anger: "What's wrong with being a 'little girl'? What's wrong with being a 'little girl'? How can you blame me?!"
Indeed, compared to the other girls, He Lan is quite young.
After all, when He Qinzhou leaned against her stomach, he could still see her chin when he looked up...
"Ahem, Sister Lan, you've misunderstood. That's not what I meant. I really didn't notice you...you...you have this...this embarrassing secret..."
"Congratulations, Qinzhou!!!"
He Lan stomped her foot heavily. Seeing her furious expression, He Qinzhou was genuinely worried that this woman would come up and kick him...
He doesn't look like a good person at all!
"Chairman."
Just as things were about to descend into chaos, a voice suddenly drew everyone's attention...
There were several chairmen present. Who was this damned messenger calling?
He Qinzhou turned around and saw that the person who came in was actually his secretary. He raised an eyebrow in surprise: "What are you doing here?"
"I……"
The secretary bit her lower lip, and said with some hesitation, "A man and a woman came to the company this morning. They were so intimidating that they even beat up our security guard..."
"Knocked down?"
Staring at his secretary, He Qinzhou couldn't help but narrow his eyes. "So you brought her here with us?"
This secretary is truly ruthless when it comes to selling people!
I need to find a time to fire her!
He Qinzhou felt somewhat dissatisfied.
Those who are here now are all my closest loved ones.
This secretary had brought two enemies to him without a word. Whatever the reason, He Qinzhou knew she could no longer stay by his side!
"I……"
The secretary opened her mouth as if to refute, but in the end, she couldn't say anything.
She knew it was her fault, but the other person was too terrifying, and she didn't dare to go against their wishes...
She only wanted to protect herself; she believed she had done nothing wrong.
"Alright, stop explaining. Go back to the finance department and settle your accounts now. I don't want to see you again."
He Qinzhou waved his hand, gave a blank snort, and then looked at the man and woman standing behind her, "So you're the ones looking for me?"
"who are you?"
For some reason, the woman didn't answer immediately, but instead greeted the women behind He Qinzhou one by one.
Perhaps this is the mutual appreciation between beautiful women?
After greeting him, the woman looked at He Qinzhou, extended her hand, and said with a smile, "You are the famous He Qinzhou, aren't you? I've heard so much about you."
"Stop talking nonsense, who are you, and what do you want from me?"
Looking at the fair wrist extended in front of him, He Qinzhou felt no ripples in his heart, nor did he have any intention of holding it.
The woman wasn't embarrassed. She calmly withdrew her hand and said frankly, "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Ye Jiaolu, and... I am the daughter of the Lord of the Heavenly God Palace."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of all the women present changed.
Temple of Heaven!
Because of their close relationship with He Qinzhou, they had all heard of this organization to some extent.
An organization that commits arson, murder, looting, and all sorts of evil deeds, serving no one but money!
Upon hearing the other person's words, He Qinzhou remained silent, but his eyes narrowed into a dangerous arc as he waited for the other person to continue speaking.
"You're a smart person, I believe you already know why I'm here, right?"
"Would it be convenient for us to talk privately?"
Seeing that He Qinzhou was just looking at her and didn't seem to want to say anything, Ye Jiaolu could only speak up again and then walk straight to the rest room next to her.
Chapter 442: To Sell for 10 Billion or Not
After exchanging glances with several women, He Qinzhou followed behind her.
Once inside the lounge, He Qinzhou closed the door and asked directly, "Is the combination lock in your possession?"
"Very good, you certainly didn't disappoint me."
Ye Jiaolu clicked her tongue, her bright eyes filled with curiosity. "I've investigated you. You're surrounded by women, each one as beautiful as a flower, a celestial being."
"But they willingly became your people, so I've always been curious about what kind of magic you have that allows you to do that."
"He Qinzhou, if the circumstances weren't so restrictive, I would really like to dissect you to see if your heart can truly hold so many people?"
He Qinzhou felt a sudden chill run down his spine.
My wariness of this woman has increased even further.
You viper!
The daughter of the Lord of the Heavenly Temple, truly lives up to her reputation!
"Why waste so much time on this nonsense? I don't want to hear it at all."
He Qinzhou stared directly at Luo Jiaolu with a probing gaze and said bluntly, "You didn't come here to tell me these things, did you? Or perhaps you see so many women have given themselves to me, and you're resentful and want to try it yourself?"
"Me? I might not be so easy to subdue."
"Tsk! What a coincidence, what I love most is a challenge, especially something difficult!"
"If you weren't an enemy, you'd actually be a pretty good friend."
Ye Jiaolu's eyes showed some appreciation, but she did not forget the purpose of her visit: "You are so smart, why keep asking? We can just tell you the result directly."
"It's different. I mainly want to see the price."
"A billion."
Ye Jiaolu's eyes showed even more appreciation as she held up a finger. "This thing is of great use to our Heavenly God Palace. Originally, we didn't want to get involved in snatching it, but after learning about its uses, we really couldn't refuse!"
"If you steal it, you steal it. Why make so many excuses?"
He Qinzhou sneered, "This thing concerns the future of the Dragon Kingdom, and can make the Dragon Kingdom strong on the world stage for at least another thirty years, and you're only offering a billion?"
"Is your account empty? If you don't have money, why bother with scientific research? I'll offer ten times the price, 10 billion, to buy the combination locks you have. Deal?"
He Qinzhou also held up one finger, his expression disdainful: "With this 10 billion, you are fully capable of independently developing new weapons!"
"You misunderstood. One billion is the price quoted by the client who hired us to take the job."
Ye Jiaolu shook her head, her face arrogant: "My dignified Heavenly God Palace is not so destitute that it can only come up with ten billion."
Seeing that He Qinzhou did not believe her, Ye Jiaolu continued, "We are determined to get this thing. To this end, we are even willing to deal with the big spender. That's why you suddenly received the news that we are coming to participate in the robbery!"
"Otherwise, this deal would have been over long ago."
Hearing Ye Jiaolu say this, He Qinzhou couldn't help but feel a jolt in his heart.
If what she said is true, then he really needs to reassess the true strength of this Heavenly Temple.
But regardless of the truth, there is a super strong person in the Heavenly Temple whose strength is comparable to Huang Bushou's...
This is beyond doubt!
There are countless experts at the God of War level. Even if there are only two, the potential threat to the Dragon Kingdom if they were to fight is truly unpredictable!
"Actually, we have no hostility towards the Dragon Kingdom."
Seeing He Qinzhou deep in thought, Ye Jiaolu continued, "Whether you believe it or not, those grudges are matters of the previous generation. As for me personally, I have absolutely no hostility towards the Dragon Kingdom. We just have different stances, different things to protect, and different beliefs and convictions..."
"The future weapons that can be developed using chips are merely a means for us to protect ourselves and fight against external enemies. Without them, our Temple of Gods will fall into an abyss of no return at some point in the future!"
"Or rather, not only our Heavenly Temple, but the entire world will at some point fall into an abyss of no return!"
Can you understand me?
Ye Jiaolu looked at He Qinzhou, her tone sincere and heartfelt.
But her words only elicited a disdainful chuckle from He Qinzhou: "Miss Ye Jiaolu, I can understand what you are saying, but please forgive me for not being able to accept that the universal values of your Heavenly Temple organization are seriously contrary to ours, so I cannot agree with your point of view."
"If it weren't for the fact that your father is a very powerful person, I wouldn't even give you a second glance. Of course, I wouldn't lecture you, nor would I ask you meaningless questions like whether the future of the Dragon Kingdom is more important or the life and death of your Heavenly Temple..."
"I just want to ask you one question."
"Ten billion, to sell or not to sell?"
"Ten billion?"
Upon hearing He Qinzhou's question again, Ye Jiaolu revealed a playful smile and mischievously retorted, "Isn't a combination lock the future of your Dragon Kingdom? Is it only worth 10 billion in your eyes?"
"No, the future is priceless."
He Qinzhou shook his head and said seriously, "But combination locks are not our future; chips are. I'm offering 10 billion to buy only the key to the future."
"The key to the future?"
Ye Jiaolu blinked her beautiful eyes, seemingly lost in thought.
After a long silence, he smiled helplessly and snorted, "You, He Qinzhou, I was supposed to be the one coming to you to buy a chip today, how did it turn into you wanting to buy my key?"
He Qinzhou didn't respond, but continued to ask, "Are you selling or not?"
"Not for sale, cannot be sold."
Ye Jiaolu shook her head in refusal, her tone sincere, "If the combination lock is your key to the future, then the chip is our weapon to defend peace. Although you and I have different positions, we share the same principles."
"That means there's nothing to talk about?"
"Not at all."
Ye Jiaolu didn't rule out the possibility of a definitive answer, but instead changed the subject, saying, "Actually, before I came to find you, my fiancé also came to see me..."
"He told me, 'He Qinzhou, you've been bullying him, and you even injured him.'"
"fiancé?"
He Qinzhou was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized that this Ye Jiaolu was Han Feng's last fiancée!
"Yeah, he's such a jerk who dares to provoke me, what can I do?"
He Qinzhou sneered again, "If you want to help him vent his anger, I advise you to choose another time and place, otherwise you may not be able to leave this venue today."
He Qinzhou was somewhat disheartened.
As he spoke, he prepared to get up and walk out.
