Chapter 182 - 112: Falling in Love, Brother Lao Steps In
"Heh..." She let out a desolate smile. "I don't have the means to break the contract, let this bloodsucking company just wait! I will show them in my own way that a frail woman cannot be bullied and exploited without end."
What could she possibly do to fight against the company?
Zhou Can could only think of one possibility.
After she committed suicide, the value of that album would be virtually gone. By then, Beihai Langxing Company's investment in the album would essentially be wasted.
And if she wrote a suicide note accusing Beihai Langxing Company of its crimes, he believed the loss to this thuggish company would be even greater.
"Let me drink!"
She forcefully tried to grab the can of beer.
"Don't drink anymore, it's bad for your health!"
Zhou Can held on firmly, her strength definitely no match for a man.
Especially since Zhou Can had trained, his wrist strength was much greater than that of an average person.
"Why are you controlling me?"
With the help of the alcohol, she glared at Zhou Can with her eyes.
"You yourself said that I am your boyfriend. With this identity, may I control you?"
Zhou Can looked at this stubborn yet frail and pitifully beautiful girl, and for the first time, he felt pity.
He didn't want to watch a fresh flower wither away before him.
She was talented and beautiful; what she lacked was an opportunity for development.
At least from the perspective of Zhou Can the doctor, life is extremely precious and everyone only gets one chance. No matter how difficult, it's not worth throwing life away.
There's a saying that's quite right, one will prevail if they don't succumb to death.
Only by living can there be opportunities.
Su Qianqian stared at Zhou Can, dumbstruck.
"Heh... If it were before, maybe I really could try to have a romance with you. But now, forget it!" She let out another desolate smile, but her hand trying to snatch the beer was withdrawn.
"Afraid of dragging me down?"
Zhou Can raised his eyebrows.
He could see through some of her thoughts.
"My situation is worse than you think! I'm not in the mood for a relationship right now. I'm very grateful that you could come over tonight to accompany me and listen to my complaints. You're a good person, kind-hearted, righteous, working as a doctor in a big hospital like Tu Ya, with a bright future ahead of you. I believe you will definitely find a destination that matches you in the future."
She looked at Zhou Can with genuine sincerity.
"Is this you giving me a 'nice guy card'?"
Zhou Can tugged at the corner of his mouth.
"Come sit over here!"
He gestured for Su Qianqian to come over.
"What for?"
She asked with a soft voice.

"Are you afraid I have ulterior motives?" Zhou Can looked at her.
Eventually, she was pulled by Zhou Can to sit beside him.
She seemed a bit nervous.
Perhaps she has never been this intimate with a man before.
"Sitting in the taxi last night, didn't you lean on my shoulder? Was it comfortable?"
Zhou Can asked her.
"Mhm! An unprecedented sense of security." A hint of sweet and shy smile appeared on her face.
The innocent love between a man and a woman is something to be yearned for.
Leaving both parties with a profound and beautiful impression.
"Come, my shoulder is here for you to lean on. In the future, whenever you need it, this shoulder can be lent to you for a lifetime."
Zhou Can wrapped his arm around her shoulder.
To his surprise, she didn't struggle or resist, but instead leaned naturally on his shoulder.
Then she closed her eyes, quietly feeling the support this man provided her.
Even the strongest women have times of vulnerability.
She was besieged on all sides, facing adversity alone; it was really too tiring, too bitter.
Zhou Can's shoulder gave her unprecedented peace and respite from all her worries.
"Qianqian!"
"Mhm!"
She murmured like a kitten.
At this moment, they truly resembled an intimate couple.
Even Zhou Can felt an unprecedented peculiar sensation and a sudden pounding heart.
"How much debt do you owe?"
"Over three hundred thousand!"
"I'll pay it for you! If you agree to be my girlfriend, that is."
Zhou Can added a condition.
His mother often urged him to bring a girlfriend home. Su Qianqian, whether in terms of appearance, figure, or inner qualities and temperament, all stirred romantic feelings in Zhou Can.
Right now, holding this beautiful woman in his arms, he particularly wanted to just quietly stay together like this for a lifetime.
He didn't know what love was, nor had he ever tried to feel it.
He only knew that holding her now, being relied on by her, made him very comfortable.
His heart raced faster, his blood circulation accelerated.
"It's useless."
She gently shook her head.
Leaning on Zhou Can's shoulder, yet refusing to move away.
Her hair brushed against Zhou Can's face, her fragrance filling his nostrils.
That exquisitely charming face was so close.
Providing Zhou Can with an extremely comfortable visual enjoyment.
"I'll buy out the album and think of a way for you to break the contract. In the future, if you want to work, find a regular job. If you don't want to, I'll take care of you."
Zhou Can's voice was calm, but to her, it caused a tremendous uproar.
"You think it's just a little bit of money? Five million! Don't be foolish."
This time she opened her eyes, slightly lifting her head to look at him.
When Zhou Can proposed to help her pay the three hundred thousand in debt, she didn't react much.
Because for her, as long as she could get past the current hurdle, earning three to four hundred thousand wasn't hard.
It was even possible to earn that amount in a year.
"I know, what about five million? You worried I can't come up with it?"
Zhou Can held her even tighter.
He didn't plan to ask for the money from his family.
Instead, he planned to sell two of his properties.
Think of it as an investment in Su Qianqian.
Besides, before putting the plan into action, he intended to ask for advice from Li Lao.
