Why did he want it to be put under Gong Mochen's position?
Just as Qin Zixian was about to ask, the man in his black robe flipped out of the window and disappeared into the night.
She looked at the thing in her hand. There were some squares on it that looked like buttons. She shook it, but there was no sound. She really couldn't figure out what this thing was!
Her tired body didn't allow her struggle for long. She wrapped herself in the quilt and fell asleep.
The next morning, Qin Zixian was woken up by a knock on the door.
"Who is it? It's so annoying!" she murmured.
"I'm your mother! Didn't you ask me to make a mask for you every morning?" He Fen said from outside the door.
Qin Zixian just remembered this. She was going to get engaged, so she had to beautify her face.
She got out of bed. When she saw that her night clothes were ripped and tattered, she quickly ran into the changing room to put on new pyjamas and threw the torn ones into the trash can.
He Fen waited for ages before Qin Zixian opened the door. "Why are you so slow? The mask in my hand is almost dry! Do you know how expensive this mask is? It's made of pearls!"
For the sake of her daughter's engagement, she was ruthless enough to send her pearl necklace to the pharmacy for it to be turned into powder. Then, she added all kinds of precious medicinal herbs and gold powder to make the most expensive mask.
A natural pearl cost hundreds of thousands of yuan each. The gold powder that was specially processed so it could be absorbed by the human body was the cheapest ingredient!
Qin Zixian yawned. "I forgot. Stop talking nonsense. Hurry up and make a mask for me. I want to become the most beautiful woman in the nation! And jewelry! You asked my father to buy it for me? I can't be married off with less jewelry than Qin Sheng, can I?"
She complained. Qin Sheng's jewelry made her speechless. She was engaged, and her father hadn't even bought her a piece of jewelry yet!
He Fen took a small brush and carefully applied the face mask on Qin Zixian's face. "Do you think I don't know how to deal with this? I told your father that if I didn't buy you decent jewelry, Mochen would laugh at me. But he said it's just an engagement, not a marriage. We'll talk about it after you get married!
"Don't worry, I won't let you have no jewelry. If you can't sell all my jewelry, I'll give you a few decent pieces. I'll organise a grand engagement no matter what!"
Qin Zixian smiled and said, "Thank you, Mom! Mom loves me the most. Don't worry, after I marry Third Brother, I'll get him to buy you jewelry. I'll buy whatever you want!"
He Fen raised her head proudly. "Of course, I know that my daughter is the most considerate. After you get married, Mochen's money will be your money. I know my daughter will buy me so many jewels!
"Let me tell you, I've finally convinced master to let your brother come back to participate in your engagement. He will be here today!"
She was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth. It was like a double wedding!
Qin Zixian nodded happily. "That's good. Tell him to come back and settle father's inheritance as soon as possible. Don't let it fall into Qin Sheng's hands!"
"Yes! I'm also worried about that. Don't go to work for the next two days. Have a good rest at home and wait for the engagement. Why do you have to go to the company to suffer?" He Fen said.
When the company was mentioned, Qin Zixian was full of anger!
"How can I not go? Do you know who is by Third Brother's side every day? It's Ye Wei! Shameless thing. She's always by Third Brother's side. Even when I want to see him, I have to ask her for permission!" Qin Zixian complained
It was simply unreasonable. She was Gong Mochen's fiancé, but the person who hung out with Gong Mochen every day was Ye Wei.
"What? How can this be? Won't you chase her away?" He Fen was also angry.
"Chase her away? How can I chase her away? Third Brother asked her to stay by his side. Do I dare to challenge her? I can only go to the company every day to watch over her. I can't let her do anything to Third Brother!
"Otherwise, what would happen to my dignity? My fiancé hasn't even gotten engaged to me yet, and it seems like he's already sleeping with another woman. What does a proper fiancé like me count for?" Qin Zixian roared angrily.
If it weren't for the fact that she didn't dare to disobey Gong Mochen, she would have long turned against Ye Wei.
He Fen nodded. "You did the right thing. Now, you can't make a scene with Mochen. You can only coax him and secure the engagement. After you've officially become Mrs. Gong, how do you want to deal with Ye Wei? Isn't that how you can deal with her? Once you're engaged you will have more power!
"Actually, it's normal for a man to have a few women around him in our aristocratic circle. When a man is rich, what's the point of not playing with women? A smart woman only needs to hold her position. Only a stupid woman would argue with her man!"
She quickly explained to her daughter. It was fine to argue with a mistress, but she definitely couldn't provoke Gong Mochen. If she angered the man, she could lose her status as his fiancé!
"Yes, I know! Is the mask ready? Third Brother doesn't like people to be late," Qin Zixian asked.
"Wait a little longer. It's such an expensive thing. You need to absorb it more!" He Fen felt sorry for her pearl necklace.
Her eyes swept across Qin Zixian's room. "Why is your bed so messy? Eh, what's this?"
She spotted the black box lying on the bed. She reached out to pick it up.
"Mom, don't move!" Qin Zixian got up in fear and grabbed the black box.
"What is it? I can't look at it?" He Fen was unhappy.
"It's nothing. Don't worry. It's something from the company. It's a product. I have to bring it to the company today!" Qin Zixian said.
Her hands trembled as she held the product. She had no idea what it was. She didn't dare to let her mother look at it!
She got up and went to the bathroom to wash up. She was ready to go to work.
"Why did you bring the product home?" He Fen got up and was about to leave when she suddenly thought of something. She stopped.
She turned around and ran back to the bathroom door. "Zixian, is that your company's product?"
"Yes. What's wrong?" Qin Zixian replied.
"The Gong Group still produces this?" He Fen's voice was trembling.
Qin Zixian could tell that her mother's tone wasn't right. "Mom, what's wrong with you? Why are you making a fuss?"
She opened the bathroom door and walked out.
He Fen grabbed Qin Zixian's hand. "Mochen's company used to produce these! We can control everything in this country, but we still have to abide by the laws! The production of this thing is controlled by the military! We can't be enemies with the military, right?"
Qin Zixian became more and more confused. "Mom, what did you say? Do you know what this thing is?"
He Fen's face was serious. "You think your mom hasn't seen things? Back then, your dad..." She paused, and then continued, "I saw this thing once..."
Qin Zixian grabbed He Fen's hand. "Mom, tell me quickly, what is this?"
