I Have a Wealth Gathering Array-Chapter 423: Qin Xiaotao’s Indifference

The executives and managers of numerous billion-dollar companies were very enthusiastic.

"It’s Qin Xiaotao from Celestial Fortune!"

Beside Hu Shanshan, Cheng Jing excitedly said, "I heard that Qin Xiaotao is the cousin of the founder of Celestial Fortune, Qin Yun. Now he’s the provincial manager of Celestial Fortune in Su Province, easily making over a million a year! And he’s so handsome to boot!"

There was a clear trace of excitement in Cheng Jing’s eyes.

Thirty-one years old, making over a million a year, and on top of that, he’s handsome—where can you find such a person? He’s clearly tall, rich, and handsome. If she had a boyfriend like that, how great would it be?

At this moment, Hu Shanshan looked at Qin Xiaotao, her face visibly pale.

Counting back, she hadn’t seen Qin Xiaotao for nearly a year. She never expected to see him again under such circumstances.

In the past half-year, Qin Xiaotao was somewhat slender and had an awkward stiffness that was hard to shake off. But now, he seemed like a different person to her—no longer stiff, managing the situations with executives and managers of various big companies effortlessly.

With a tall and slim build, his suit fit perfectly, making him look like a movie star.

Hu Shanshan’s face was pale, and hearing Cheng Jing’s words, she couldn’t help but say, "Jing, you said Qin Xiaotao is now the provincial manager of Celestial Fortune?"

She had been somewhat aware of Celestial Fortune’s affairs and knew it was developing rapidly. Even though she regretted leaving Celestial Fortune, there was no chance to reverse her decision.

As for the specifics about Qin Xiaotao, she wasn’t clear, and after breaking up with Zhang Yuancheng, she paid much less attention to Celestial Fortune.

"Yes, he just took up the position this month."

Cheng Jing nodded, whispered, "I heard from others that his base salary plus commission exceed a million. Adding Celestial Fortune’s year-end bonuses, his salary must be even higher."

She looked at Hu Shanshan, giggling, "Shanshan, do you have a thing for Qin Xiaotao? But forget it, someone like him is out of our league."

She couldn’t help but sigh, "Oh, handsome and with such a high salary. When will I ever meet someone like that?"

"A million a year, a provincial manager..."

Hu Shanshan didn’t hear the rest clearly. She watched him surrounded by people and her thoughts drifted back to long ago.

"Shanshan, don’t leave me, please. I’ll change anything for you."

In her mind flashed the scene of their last meeting, where Qin Xiaotao knelt before her, begging her not to leave.

How humble was Qin Xiaotao back then?

Now the humble figure overlapped with the dazzling figure before her, which gave Hu Shanshan a sense of illusion, making everything feel unreal.

It was as if the Qin Xiaotao before her was a completely different person, unlike the one from before.

"Shanshan?"

Beside her, Cheng Jing’s voice called out several times before Hu Shanshan came back to her senses.

"Are you okay?"

Watching Hu Shanshan, Cheng Jing asked in confusion.

Why did she space out while they were talking?

"I’m fine." Hu Shanshan shook her head, forcing a smile.

"Get busy now. You just arrived here, and if you don’t perform well, you may not pass the probation period." Cheng Jing advised.

Hu Shanshan nodded, carrying drinks, and directly turned around.

Even though she said that, her mind was still a bit dazed, paying no attention to the surroundings. As she turned, she accidentally bumped into a middle-aged man, causing the drinks she was holding to spill from the tray, splashing juice on him.

"Watch where you’re going!"

Seeing his clothes stained by the drink, the middle-aged man immediately shouted in anger.

"Sir, I’m sorry."

At this point, Hu Shanshan was completely back to her senses. Seeing the man’s expensive suit, she hurriedly apologized.

She wasn’t knowledgeable about suits, but she knew the price of the suit the man was wearing.

Zhang Yuancheng had a suit just like it before, priced at fifteen thousand! He usually wouldn’t even dare to wear it.

"Shanshan."

At that moment, seeing Hu Shanshan spill drinks all over a client, Cheng Jing was shocked.

Everyone in this hall was either a manager or an executive of a big company.

No enterprise with a market value under a hundred million had the qualifications to attend this conference, yet Hu Shanshan had caused trouble.

She immediately felt anxious inside.

"Shanshan, you’ve gotten me into big trouble." She worried internally.

Hu Shanshan was brought in by her. Not only would Hu Shanshan suffer, but she might also face consequences.

"Where is your supervisor, your manager?" The middle-aged man was clearly very upset. The meeting hadn’t even started, and his suit was already dirty, making him a laughingstock?

The commotion naturally drew the attention of those around and also caught Qin Xiaotao’s attention.

Even though the spilled drinks dirtied the suit of the middle-aged man and made Hu Shanshan panic, in her heart, she was thinking of something else. It seemed as if she knew Qin Xiaotao would notice, so while apologizing, she glanced in his direction and locked eyes with him as he looked over.

After nearly a year, they met once more.

"Hu Shanshan?"

As he looked over and saw who caused the commotion, Qin Xiaotao was slightly surprised.

But he only glanced briefly before withdrawing his gaze, turning to continue his conversation with those around him, smiling.

He didn’t have any major emotional reaction, just mild surprise.

"I’m sorry, Manager Han!"

The restaurant supervisor hurried over to apologize.

On the other hand, Hu Shanshan felt awful.

She noticed Qin Xiaotao’s gaze. Initially, she wanted to avoid it, not wanting him to see her in such an embarrassing situation. But after seeing him merely glance her way and then smilingly chatting with others, a sense of repression rose in her heart.

Was Qin Xiaotao ignoring her?

After such a long time apart, although Qin Xiaotao had changed significantly and even became the provincial manager of Celestial Fortune in Su Province, her impression of him remained largely unchanged.

Before, Qin Xiaotao would give her things, agree to everything, and wouldn’t let her spend a dime. At last, he even kneeled, begging her not to leave—so humble.

In their interactions, her status was evidently higher. In her view, Qin Xiaotao should be the type to come at her call, wave away at her dismissal, be incredibly anxious over any small trouble she faced.

But now, this once humble Qin Xiaotao was ignoring her? This feeling was unbearable.

"Qin Xiaotao!"

In her frustration, Hu Shanshan suddenly called out.

This shout made many look towards Qin Xiaotao.

"Does Celestial Fortune’s Manager Qin know this girl? Why did she suddenly call his name?"

"I don’t know."

"Seems like they’re not familiar?"

"Yes, earlier Manager Qin noticed what happened but didn’t come over."

Several people murmured softly around them.
