I Have a Wealth Gathering Array-Chapter 308: The Woman Takes the Initiative

"I’m sorry, my phone was having issues the last couple of days, so I couldn’t reply to your message. I have time tomorrow morning; are you free?"

Upon opening WeChat, a long message appeared in front of Qin Xiaotao.

Looking at the message, Qin Xiaotao frowned slightly.

His mother just called, saying the matchmaker mentioned that he wasn’t taking the initiative, and the matchmaker must have heard it from Yue Siya.

Since Yue Siya said that, what does sending this message now mean?

For a moment, Qin Xiaotao was a bit puzzled.

He pondered for a moment, then replied, "I’m free after 10:30 tomorrow morning."

Since it was a reply from Yue Siya, he certainly wouldn’t pretend not to see it.

This time, Yue Siya replied in just a few seconds.

"Okay, I’m at the Ninghu Commercial Street; why don’t you come pick me up?"

Seeing the message, Qin Xiaotao replied, "Okay."

After agreeing on the time and place to meet, neither sent any more messages.

...

The next day, Qin Xiaotao drove to a spot at Ninghu Commercial Street, where Yue Siya was waiting.

When she saw Qin Xiaotao, she seemed very happy, with a slight smile on her face, and quickly walked over.

"What do you want for lunch?" Qin Xiaotao asked, looking at Yue Siya sitting in the passenger seat.

It was past ten now, soon lunchtime.

"Let’s have Western food,"

Yue Siya said with a smile, "There’s a Western restaurant nearby that’s not too expensive."

"Alright." Qin Xiaotao nodded and took Yue Siya there.

While eating, the two of them chatted.

Glancing around, Yue Siya asked, "Qin Xiaotao, you mentioned you’re in the garment industry before. Not many can earn twenty thousand yuan in this field; which company are you with?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaotao didn’t hide anything and said, "I work at Celestial Fortune."

"Celestial Fortune?"

Upon hearing this, a look of surprise appeared on Yue Siya’s face.

"You’re actually working at Celestial Fortune? It’s a very famous fashion company in Jinling now!"

Yue Siya seemed to get excited all of a sudden and said, "I even went for an interview there before."

Talking about Celestial Fortune, Yue Siya seemed quite excited and kept talking, showing she was familiar with Celestial Fortune’s development history.

"By the way, the founder of Celestial Fortune, Qin Yun, shares the same last name with you." Yue Siya curiously asked, "Are you guys related?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaotao smiled and said, "Just a coincidence."

He didn’t reveal his relationship with Qin Yun.

Hearing this, Yue Siya didn’t inquire further, obviously thinking it was unlikely there was a connection between Qin Xiaotao and Qin Yun.

After talking for quite a while, Yue Siya smiled and said, "Celestial Fortune is hiring a lot right now, I wonder if I’ll pass the interview this time?"

She glanced at Qin Xiaotao after speaking, but Qin Xiaotao just smiled and said nothing.

Seeing this, Yue Siya couldn’t help but feel a bit down, thinking she had made her point clear, but Qin Xiaotao showed no reaction.

Seeing his lack of response, Yue Siya didn’t say more and continued the conversation.

"Qin Xiaotao, since you treated me to Western food, I’ll treat you to a movie," Yue Siya said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaotao shook his head and said, "I have something this afternoon; maybe next time."

"Alright then." Yue Siya seemed a bit disappointed and nodded.

They parted ways, and Yue Siya met up with Lin Qi.

"Siya, how did it go? Did Qin Xiaotao agree to help you get into Celestial Fortune?" Lin Qi asked with a smile.

Knowing Qin Xiaotao’s identity, she quickly realized that, as an executive at Celestial Fortune, having a word with HR to get someone hired wouldn’t be hard.

"He didn’t say anything,"

Yue Siya said a bit frustrated, "I can’t really press him on it, not sure what he means."

If a guy liked her, he’d probably immediately promise to take care of it if she mentioned it.

"Didn’t say anything?"

Lin Qi thought for a moment and said, "Don’t worry, maybe he’s already arranging something for you. Think about it, he directly made plans to meet you after your previous encounter, that shows he definitely has feelings for you. If he likes you, he’ll for sure help out where he can."

Upon hearing this, Yue Siya felt it might be possible and started to feel hopeful.

Looking at her friend, Lin Qi couldn’t help but add, "Actually, if you had replied earlier, Qin Xiaotao would’ve definitely helped; he might not have mentioned it earlier because he was upset."

A girl giving the cold shoulder, it’s hard to believe anyone wouldn’t mind at all.

However, some have the luxury to mind, but most don’t.

"Oh, I also regret it," Yue Siya said, feeling frustrated.

As soon as she found out about Qin Xiaotao’s identity, she felt regret.

"I’m just trying to smooth things over now."

She held her phone, unsure of her feelings.

She used to be indifferent to Qin Xiaotao, but now she’s the one taking the initiative.

Lin Qi said nothing more after that. Her friend here has high standards and is critical of everything, which is why she’s still single till now.

Given the current situation, Lin Qi thought it was a good idea to mention it, hoping it could prompt a change.

"Alright, don’t worry. The fact that Qin Xiaotao went out with you today shows he definitely still has feelings for you, and he’s likely to help with this," Lin Qi said with a smile.

"Sigh, I hope so," Yue Siya sighed, really wanting to get into Celestial Fortune.

...

As they chatted, Qin Xiaotao drove to the Celestial Fortune office building.

Upon arriving, he thought for a moment and headed to the HR department.

"Director Qin."

Seeing Qin Xiaotao approaching, the head of HR, Gao Yu, greeted him with a smile.

She’s aware of the relationship between Qin Xiaotao and Qin Yun.

"Minister Gao, I wanted to ask, did someone named Yue Siya come for an interview with us recently?" Qin Xiaotao asked.

Gao Yu nodded and said, "Yes, there was."

"When did she come for the interview?" Qin Xiaotao asked again.

"I’m not sure about the exact time, but she was interviewed by Sun Xia and others, let me ask them."

Soon, Sun Xia and the others arrived.

"Director Qin, Yue Siya came for her interview yesterday at three in the afternoon," Sun Xia quickly said.

Seeing Qin Xiaotao seemed to be pondering something, Gao Yu asked with a smile, "What’s up? Does Director Qin know this Yue Siya?"

Various thoughts crossed her mind, was Qin Xiaotao planning to use his connections to have them hire Yue Siya?

The rule set by Qin Yun was that no department could use connections.

But because of Qin Xiaotao’s special relationship with Qin Yun, if Qin Xiaotao wanted to use connections, they wouldn’t quite know how to handle it.

"Yes, I know her."

Qin Xiaotao nodded, then asked, "How did Yue Siya perform in the interview?"

After speaking, he added, "Just speak honestly."
