Rebirth Of A Movie Star

Chapter 35 - Cigarette

"How come you have time to come visit today?"

Qiu Qian rarely stayed at the shipping company's headquarters. But today there was an unexpected guest.

Wang Yun looked slightly surprised. He walked into Qiu Qian's luxurious looking office.

It was a big building next to the harbour. The floor length windows showed panoramic ocean views and also made the very spacious office not look empty and instead added an extra feeling of luxury. Wang Yun couldn't help but sigh. "Sometimes it seems that you haven't changed at all these years but, when I walk into a place like this, I can really feel that you're now a big boss."

Qiu Qian laughed. He waved Wang Yun over the guest couch. "Sit."

At this time three polite knocks sounded on the office door. A very neat looking secretary came in holding a tray with a pot of aromatic tea. She placed it down then left quickly. Such a well-trained and orderly employee showed the high standards of the company.

Of course Qiu Qian was not included within this. Although his flower print shirt had already been changed by Bai Lang to a well-fitted shirt custom made by The Regal Suit, this didn't prevent Qiu Qian from unbuttoning the top buttons as well as rolling up his sleeves. His arrogant and untamed demeanour had not changed from before.

Qiu Qian lifted up the pot and poured tea for Wang Yun. "Right now when doing business it's not just about the inner content. Some western people really like looking at surface appearances. So I use this place to intimidate them a bit so that everything after runs more smoothly."

Wang Yun thanked him. "Looks like everyone's work has changed a lot. So much time has passed, sometimes it feels like we've become strangers. Next time I'll go over to Ah Cheng's and see what his office looks like now."

"Ah Cheng has changed even more," Qiu Qian laghed. "The entire building is like a fortress, even the windows have iron bars."

"That shows how well he's doing," Wang Yun shook his head. "I'm so busy that I haven't had time to go look and didn't even know about it."

Qiu Qian smiled again. He pushed a few things aside and sat down on the couch. "So what's the reason for you coming all this way today?"

"Asking it like that makes it seem like I'm not welcome?" Wang Yun teased him.

"It's not like that, come on. What do you need?"

"Then I also won't beat around the bush. It's Ah Quan who asked me to come here to apologize on his behalf. For Bai Lang."

"On his behalf?" Qiu Qian smiled vaguely.

"He thought right now you probably aren't very happy with him," Wang Yun drank a sip of tea. "He knows that the things he said at the party weren't good to hear."

Qiu Qian flicked away some non-existent dust on his pants. "If he knows that then why did he say it?"

"Because he admitted that he's jealous."

After Wang Yun spoke, Qiu Qian's gaze immediately swept over.

Wang Yun met his gaze and sighed. "Of course, it's jealousy over Bai Lang's good fortune to meet someone like you. Because right now Boss Hong's tactics are really making him very frustrated."

After this sentence, Qiu Qian's expression became more normal. "This is something he should have expected long ago. Back then the choice between me and Boss Hong was already given to him. He was the one who chose and nobody forced him."

Wang Yun paused a second then asked, "Then if something like this happened to Bai Lang, what would you do?"

Qiu Qian's gaze once again swept over Wang Yun. The gaze was so piercing that Wang Yun was filled with embarrassment.
