While the internet was buzzing, Qin He posted a Weibo update.
"The Qing Sui series perfume launch event is seven days away. This time it's a series, so don't focus too much on Wild Tea. You can also check out others in the series like Willow Branch, Tibetan Snow, Under the Lotus, and the very suitable men's fragrance, Ling Feng..."
Qin He introduced them one by one with great dedication to her work.
This wave of news about the new Qing Sui series had completely taken off.
Qin He's heart also settled. She checked the time and realized she hadn't contacted Gu Ranran in two days. She wondered how Gu Ranran was doing.
Gu Ranran's current residence was not a secret. Gu Qichen had already investigated. It was an apartment under Gu Ranran's name, located on Tingqing Road.
The next day, Qin He lazily woke up at ten in the morning, freshened up, and went downstairs in her loungewear.
Xu Wanwan was already awake and playing on her phone on the sofa. She looked up and smiled at Qin He, "It's the weekend today, and you don't have to go to Gu Corporation. How about we go shopping?"
Qin He looked at her belly and said, "You'll have to hold on a little longer. It's not very safe outside lately."
Xu Wanwan frowned, "What happened?"
Qin He sighed and sat down next to Xu Wanwan, "I saw Song Nuan."
Xu Wanwan froze for a few seconds, then suddenly stood up, her face filled with disgust and hatred, "Who did you say? Song Nuan?!"
Qin He quickly pulled her, "Don't be so jumpy. Standing up so suddenly isn't good for you!"
"First, tell me what's going on with Song Nuan. Wasn't she missing? Where did you see her?"
Qin He had no choice but to recount what happened yesterday. "Song Nuan is now Fang Yaozu's wife."
Xu Wanwan pursed her lips, "But the internet says Fang Yaozu's wife is named Lin Xiaoya."
Qin He nodded, "She must have had some minor plastic surgery, and Fang Yaozu created a flawless new identity for her in the capital."
Xu Wanwan's expression turned cold, her small face filled with murderous intent, "Is Fang Yaozu looking for death? I think he doesn't want to stay in Qingcheng anymore! I'll call my dad right away and have him stop all cooperation with the Fang Corporation."
Qin He had no objection to this. She nodded, "I was just planning to tell my brother as well."
"I'll talk to Qin Yun," Xu Wanwan said through gritted teeth, looking furious.
Qin He chuckled, "Why do I feel like you're angrier than I am when Song Nuan is mentioned?"
"You're still talking about it. That scheming woman caused you so much trouble back then, I want to crush her every time I think about it!" Xu Wanwan clenched her fists.
As they were talking, there was movement outside the door.
Qin He looked up and saw Di Shishi entering in a beautiful pink dress.
Di Shishi had a penchant for Lolita fashion, but due to the current dangerous situation, Shen Yicong was hidden somewhere they couldn't see. Because of this constant risk, Di Shishi had been wearing pants that allowed for easy movement for over a year.
The fabric was also chosen for durability.
Qin He raised an eyebrow slightly, "Shishi, where did you go?"
Di Shishi held a plastic supermarket bag in her hand, "Just got back from the supermarket, what's wrong?"
Qin He narrowed her eyes. Ever since the Qing Yan Mansion gathering a week ago, Di Shishi had been staying at the Qin family's residence.
When she first came, Di Shishi had said it was to protect the Qin family's safety. However, lately, she was rarely seen, and Qin He didn't see Di Shishi during the day when she was at work.
But Di Shishi was also often absent during dinner.
"What did you buy at the supermarket?" Qin He got up and walked over.
Di Shishi immediately became a little guilty and hid the plastic bag behind her, "This is my privacy, understand privacy?"
Xu Wanwan, who was nearby, glanced over and said, "It's definitely more ingredients for chocolate chip cookies."
Di Shishi glared angrily at Xu Wanwan. Xu Wanwan, cradling her belly, glared back fearlessly.
Living under the same roof recently, they had become good friends due to their similar personalities, despite their playful bickering.
Qin He's lips curled into a smile, "Chocolate chip cookies? Shishi, I can make them for you if you want."
Di Shishi's eyes darted around, "No need!"
Seeing her guilty look and the pink dress she was wearing.
Qin He had a rough idea and said directly, "You're dating Zuo Xiuxian, aren't you?"
"How could it be him? Don't you think I'm blind? Zuo Xiuxian, that pervert!" Di Shishi immediately protested.
Qin He's eyes narrowed instantly, staring at Di Shishi as if interrogating her, "So you are indeed dating someone?"
Di Shishi realized she had slipped up and glared resentfully at Qin He, "You're so sly, too sly! I refuse to talk to you!"
With that, Di Shishi grabbed her things and hid in the kitchen.
Xu Wanwan sat on the sofa, yawned, and chuckled, "She's been making cookies for a week straight. You're at work all day, so you don't know how disastrous our kitchen has been lately."
"How disastrous?" Qin He asked. Making cookies, at most, would ruin some ingredients, right?
Xu Wanwan sneered, "Three ovens broke, she's angrily destroyed two range hoods, and countless baking pans!"
Qin He paused, "Why does she need to use the range hood when baking cookies?"
"Heh, she bakes for too long, and smoke comes out of the oven."
Qin He gasped, "Wanwan, you should stay away from the kitchen lately."
"Don't worry, I won't go near it until her cookies are successful. Now, besides cooking time, our chef doesn't stay in the kitchen."
Qin He nodded and heard the sound of ceramics shattering from the kitchen.
Xu Wanwan's mouth twitched, "I always believed that diligence can compensate for clumsiness, but it turns out there are people in the world with absolutely no talent. I really want to install a camera in the kitchen to see how she turns cookie-making into a battlefield."
Qin He chuckled softly and, after some thought, entered the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Di Shishi was melting chocolate.
As soon as Qin He entered, she saw Di Shishi holding a large pot with a small amount of chocolate in it.
The heat was turned up high, and it had already overflowed the edge of the pot.
Qin He paused, "Shishi, turn off the heat first."
"What's wrong?"
Qin He said, "It's about to catch fire."
The next second, the flames surged up!
Di Shishi was certainly not a delicate young girl. Her movements were as swift and decisive as when she was on a mission. She directly grabbed a basin of water nearby and poured it over.
The fire extinguished immediately upon contact with water. Di Shishi looked at Qin He's stunned face and paused.
"Because there was no oil in the pot, I used water. I have safety awareness."
As she spoke, water entered the plug of the range hood, and with a loud bang.
All the electrical appliances in the kitchen stopped working.
Di Shishi coughed lightly. From the living room outside, Xu Wanwan's roar came in.
"Why did all the lights go out!"
In the kitchen, Qin He and Di Shishi stared at each other.
"What, what happened?"
Qin He rubbed her forehead, "It's probably a tripped circuit breaker due to water. The housekeeper will handle it soon, so you don't need to worry about it."
"Okay."
