After Divorce, My Ex-Wife Became My Creditor

“Han Qian, you said you want the General Affairs Department to act as supervising engineers, but do you know that Yang Lan from the General Affairs Department can’t manage those people?”

Yan Qingqing was tidying her hair, her impressive figure likely to stir jealousy in Wen Nuan. Han Qian lay on the sofa, gazing at the ceiling, and spoke softly.

“I know. Being supervising engineers is mostly about Su Liang and me doing the work. The others can just stay put in the office. The General Affairs Department can’t keep being like this. I don’t care about others, but mainly about Yang-Jie. Gao Lvxing is thinking of dissolving the General Affairs Department, and with Yang Lan’s personality, she’d be bullied anywhere. So, it’s better to make some moves.”

“You bastard, don’t you know a woman is most beautiful when she’s doing her hair?”

“I can’t be bothered to look at you. The more I look, the scarier it gets.”

“Get out.”

“Alright.”

Han Qian didn’t want to stay alone in an office with Yan Qingqing. He wasn’t lecherous, but that didn’t mean he wasn’t a man. As he left, he saw Yang Jia looking excited, and he slapped his own forehead.

Headache.

The forehead was his own.

Under Yang Jia’s gossip-filled gaze, Han Qian entered the elevator. Compared to Yan Qingqing’s office, he disliked the current General Affairs Department even more. It was a mess with no work atmosphere. Liu Jiulong was intent on wooing Yang Lan, Li Dongsheng was leading a protest, and including Han Qian, there wasn’t a single serious person.

As he walked down the corridor, he could still hear the General Affairs Department’s noise. The moment he walked in, the department quieted down. Only a girl in the corner was cursing at her computer with headphones on, her articulate words making Han Qian a bit scared. He quietly sat at his desk and chatted with Su Liang about how they spent the weekend.

Han Qian was back, and Yang Lan came out of the office. She had just received a call from General Manager Yan, clapped her hands, and told the General Affairs Department members to prepare to go to the construction site as supervising engineers. She also reminded them to bring extra clothes and called out to the girl in the corner.

“Qian Wan, how can a young lady curse like that?”

Qian Wan looked up with a silly smile, closed her game, and took off her headphones. At this moment, Li Dongsheng spoke up mockingly.

“My mom said, Qian Wan, you’re the least suitable woman to be a wife.”

Qian Wan turned sweetly to Li Dongsheng and smiled.

“Momma’s boy, you’d better shut up. Don’t think just because your dad is a shareholder, I won’t dare to curse you. You’re always talking about your mom, why don’t you keep her in your pocket?”

Oh? Han Qian was intrigued. He had long guessed that the General Affairs Department was full of hidden talents, but he never expected that Li Dongsheng’s dad was a shareholder of Rongyao, and that Qian Wan didn’t seem to care about this shareholder at all. Yang Lan stopped their argument and told them that if they wanted to fight, they’d be transferred to another department.

Han Qian watched Qian Wan and Li Dongsheng with interest, his face full of gossip. Su Liang saw Han Qian’s expression and laughed softly.

“There are only a few people in the General Affairs Department who didn’t get in through connections. You, me, Wu Siguan… basically, those who keep their heads down and work have no connections. Those who snack and play games are all connected. Yang-Jie’s personality is also quite soft. Hey, Qian-Ge, let me ask you, did Yang Jia just run over saying you’re dating General Manager Yan?”

Han Qian pushed Su Liang’s head away and laughed.

“If you believe Yang Jia, the dead wouldn’t be able to wear clothes. Don’t listen to her nonsense. But what Yang-Jie said about going to be supervising engineers next month is true. It might be cold by then, so remember to dress warmly. How big is Qian Wan’s background?”

“Her aunt is also one of the company’s shareholders. They’re all young masters and young misses experiencing life. Can’t compare, can’t compare. Qian-Ge, do you think they spend money without blinking, and have eight dishes every day?”

“What are you thinking? Not much different from ordinary people. When you have a million, you’ll feel the same as now. What you can’t afford, you still can’t afford.”

Su Liang smiled and didn’t respond.

Life in the General Affairs Department became peaceful again. At lunch in the cafeteria, they ran into Gao Lvxing. He just smiled at Han Qian without greeting him. Yan Qingqing’s malicious plan seemed to be working. In the afternoon, when Han Qian was bored, he received a call from Guan the Goon.

Han Qian wasn’t surprised that Guan the Goon knew his number. If he didn’t have this ability, his words could be dismissed as nonsense. At the shady spot by Rongyao’s main entrance, Guan the Goon, in a bright red suit, stood with Han Qian. Passersby avoided them, as Guan the Goon’s reputation seemed to be at its lowest.

Guan the Goon didn’t forget to hand Han Qian a bottle of water, grinning as he spoke.

“Mr. Han, Lin Zongheng called again today to ask when we’re taking action. I didn’t tell him we’re not acting, just said we’re looking for an opportunity. Came to ask your opinion.”

Han Qian took the water, frowned, and smiled.

“Mr. Guan, your enthusiasm makes me a bit uneasy. I don’t think I have anything that would interest your master, do I?”

“That’s not right, Mr. Han. A call from your relative made my master a bit worried. How could it be useless? Li Jinhai is considered our nemesis, not someone to provoke. Of course, one Li Jinhai can only get you the information that Lin Zongheng wants to harm you. As for us helping you, it’s all because of our young miss. The young miss called the master this morning, unexpectedly. Besides Li Jiawei, she mentioned you the most, Mr. Han. I heard she even wanted to take the papers she did at your house back to show off to the master, so…”

At this point, Guan the Goon suddenly ran off. Following his gaze, Han Qian frowned as he saw Sun Ya in a short skirt swaying her hips down the stairs. Guan the Goon went over to flirt, and the result was predictable. Guan the Goon was rejected and returned to Han Qian’s side, chuckling.

“This Sun Ya is Gao Lvxing’s woman. My master has always wanted to blackmail Gao Lvxing but hasn’t found the opportunity. Opportunities are rare, Mr. Han, don’t blame me.”

Han Qian automatically filtered out this sentence and laughed softly.

“So your master sent you to tell me you’re refusing Lin Zongheng, huh? From what you’re saying, it seems your master’s days aren’t going too well.”

“Mr. Han, you’re joking. My master owns four KTVs, two bars, and two bathhouses. Not wealthy, but money is something you should still collect. No one’s afraid of money biting their hand, right? This time, the master is betting on you, Mr. Han. I’m sure you won’t let my master suffer, right?”

Suddenly angry, Han Qian kicked Guan the Goon in the stomach, sending him sprawling on the ground, pointing at him and cursing.

“Guan the Goon, you’re not honest. I’m not playing with you anymore.”

With that, he turned and left. This scene was clearly seen by Gao Lvxing on the twelfth floor and Yan Qingqing on the fourteenth floor. They both recognized the flashy red-suited man and saw Guan the Goon getting kicked.

Lying on the ground, Guan the Goon sighed helplessly, took out his phone, and dialed a number.

“Master, this Han Qian is hard to fool. Should we just kidnap him? Okay, okay, I got it, I got it.”
