Perfect Secret Love: The Bad New Wife is a Little Sweet
chapter-2292

At a French restaurant in Tianshui City:

Yin Heng was neither early nor late and arrived five minutes ahead of the agreed time.

He elegantly sat down on a seat by the window with the posture of a noble young master.

About an hour later, Qin Xiyuan finally arrived.

However, Yin Heng didn’t display any irritation. When he saw Qin Xiyuan, his eyes brightened and he quickly stood up to pull back the seat across from him out for her and handed her a bouquet of fresh roses.

Qin Xiyuan accepted the roses and glanced at them before setting them aside. “Thanks.”

Yin Heng furtively probed, “What happened? Why do you appear to be unhappy, Miss Qin?”

Qin Xiyuan’s lips curled up in a sneer. “Nothing. I just ran into a disobedient dog.”

Yin Heng’s eyes shifted, joy flickering through them. It appeared Si Yehan lost her favor?

He originally employed every method he could, but Qin Xiyuan was disdainful and chased after Si Yehan instead.

Since she was Qin Xiyuan, the daughter of the Arbitration Council’s vice president Qin, he didn’t dare to use any special methods. Otherwise, if he offended the Qin family, he’d be doomed.

While he was at his wits’ end, he never expected Qin Xiyuan to contact him of her own volition.

Yin Heng smiled faintly. “Not only is that dog disobedient, but he also appears to be a blind dog to have provoked the rage of a beautiful woman like you, Miss Qin.”

Qin Xiyuan peered up at him, her mood easing due to his honeyed words.

Evidently, Yin Heng’s fawning attitude wholly fulfilled her vanity, which was damaged after Si Yehan’s blow.

This is how men should treat me…

“I heard Auntie has intentions to pass on the Yin family to you?” Qin Xiyuan asked aloofly.

Yin Heng bitterly smiled. “Mother does have those intentions indeed, but…”

Qin Xiyuan asked, “But what?”

Yin Heng’s expression fell as he said, “But now that Si Yehan has returned to Tianshui City, he’s Mother’s biological son, after all… No matter how well I perform, he’s the one Mother has been most satisfied with all along…”

Qin Xiyuan snorted. “So what? Whether you’re biological or not isn’t that important!”

Yin Heng’s eyes flickered. “What do you mean, Miss Qin?”

Qin Xiyuan nonchalantly said, “Attend the banquet the night after tomorrow with me.”

Yin Heng was startled. “Miss Qin is talking about… the opening ceremony for the Summit…?”

There was an opening ceremony that occurred before the summit every year. After the opening ceremony ended, a banquet would be held that night and the attendees solely consisted of the directors and the higher-ups of the Arbitration Council.

Qin Xiyuan actually wanted him to be her male companion in this kind of setting. This was representative of extremely high regard from her and monumental for him.

Qin Xiyuan raised her brows. “What? You aren’t unwilling?”

Yin Heng suppressed the mad joy in his heart and answered with a refined and gentle expression: “Impossible. It’s my honor to have been invited by Miss Qin.”

Qin Xiyuan was finally satisfied and raised her glass. “Heh, Mr. Yin truly is clever. Cheers!”

“Cheers!”

…

After dinner was over, Yin Heng personally drove Qin Xiyuan back to the Qin residence before driving back to the Yin residence.

When he arrived home, Yin Heng sought out Yin Yuerong immediately.

“Mother!”

Yin Yuerong expressionlessly looked up. “It’s so late. Do you need something?”

Yin Heng replied, “Tonight… Miss Qin asked to meet with me.”

Yin Yuerong’s expression remained unchanged. “Is that so?”

Yin Heng continued, “Miss Qin invited me to attend the banquet with her in two nights.”
