As she said this, the elevator stopped at the administrative office floor, and she added,””Alright, you’re here. Go to work first. See you when you have time.”
Seeing that she was already waving at her, Liu Lina could only force a smile.””Alright then, I’ll head to my office first.” She then walked out of the elevator in her high heels and her sexy little waist.
The moment the elevator doors closed, PEI GE clutched her chest and let out a deep breath.””Seriously, PEI GE, what are you so nervous about? you’re not a mistress, so what’s there to be nervous about? Besides, wasn’t Ji Ziming’s Special Assistant a higher position than an Administrative Director? Why did he have to lower his voice? Useless!”
As she mumbled to herself, she suddenly remembered,””Ah … Special Assistant … You’ll have to think of ways to please your great CEO later! It was simply a headache. Pei Pei, ah Pei Pei, why do you always meet people who will kill your brain cells when you come to work every day … This road of revenge is really like taking Scriptures from the West!”
PEI GE hammered her dizzy head when the elevator stopped and the door opened.
This time, the elevator beeped again. They had already reached the top floor, the president’s office.
She stepped out of the elevator in her high heels and raised an eyebrow at the man’s office door, which was open.
There was an inexplicable joy in the depths of her heart. She was about to go in and talk to him about the spokesperson yesterday, but just as she walked to the door, the cleaning lady came out with a mop and a cane. She had obviously just finished cleaning.
Seeing her come to work in such a happy mood, the Auntie smiled and said,””Oh, assistant PEI is here. It’s strange that CEO Ji is a little later than you today. ”
PEI GE smiled at the other as a form of greeting, but when she heard that Ji Ziming was not here yet, her eyes flashed with disappointment.
However, the Auntie was still around, and PEI GE was afraid that the cleaner would laugh at her. Hence, she quickly hid her disappointment with a smile and asked gently,””Oh, Auntie, is CEO Ji not here yet? I don’t know if it’s because of the traffic, but I’ll call his driver and ask. It’s been hard on Auntie!”
The Auntie closed her eyes and shook her head with a smile.”Eh, it’s not hard. You high-level intellectuals who work hard with your brains are the ones who have it hard. Alright, I’ll go down first. You can continue with your work.”
PEI GE smiled and nodded again. Seeing the Auntie disappear at the end of the corridor, PEI GE felt even more disappointed. She sighed and pouted, feeling empty inside.
As a Special Assistant, she should have a good grasp of the president’s schedule. However, there was no official notice all of a sudden, so she really didn’t know what to do.
She fished out her phone and was about to call Ji Ziming to ask why he was not at the company when it suddenly rang. It was him!
The surprise in her eyes quickly disappeared as she quickly answered the call.”Good Morning, CEO Ji. Why didn’t you come to the office today?”
She regretted her words the moment they left her mouth. Frowning, she pinched her thigh and muttered inside,””Aiya, PEI GE. He’s a CEO, so he doesn’t need to tell you where he’s going. He might just be calling to tell you that there’s no need to arrange for today’s work or meeting. Why did you just open your mouth and …”
Just as she was feeling vexed, Ji Ziming’s voice came through the phone. It sounded a little hoarse, though, and was not as deep and sexy as before.”I haven’t seen you for one night. Did you miss me again?”
Her vexation disappeared at this and was replaced by concern.””CEO-CEO Ji, are you sick?”
Hearing this, Ji Ziming merely laughed bitterly before continuing,””Good, he’s not dead yet. I’m calling to tell you that I won’t be going to the company today. If there are any important clients, please help me make an appointment later. Also, help me delay the video conference with the overseas branches. ”
“Oh, okay, I got it.” PEI GE did not have the mood to think about anything else. Her beautiful brows furrowed deeply as she nodded her head obediently.
“There’s one more thing. Last night, we talked about a spokesperson for a new jewelry company. You can help me with the interview. I’ve said that you’re the designer, so you have the final say on whether the spokesperson’s temperament is suitable or not. I’ve already asked si linna to send his official announcement to my email. I’ll send you my email password later. ” After saying so much, the man’s suppressed coughing could be heard from the other end of the phone.
“CEO Ji, I’m not very good at interviewing for a spokesperson. Why don’t we wait until you and Si linna return to the company?” she asked with concern. Also, you don’t look well. Did you call the doctor? Why don’t I call the family doctor right now?”
PEI GE remembered this clearly. When Irene was transferred away, she told her that Ji Ziming had many minor illnesses. Furthermore, the Ji family had a large business and always had private specialists in public hospitals to diagnose major and minor illnesses. Thus, the man was the same and had a family doctor. Irene had also given him his contact information.
However, he immediately stopped coughing and deliberately rejected her.””No need, just do what I told you to do. If there are any questions during the interview, you can record them down so that he can be re-interviewed next time …”
He did not hold it in for long after he said that and started coughing again. From what she could hear, his throat seemed to be very uncomfortable.
He knew that his anxiety was caused by his mental illness. Moreover, he smoked a lot of cigarettes last night, so his immune system was weak. He also went to bed very late. He didn’t seem to have a deep sleep even after taking sleeping pills, which caused the heat. He thought that he would be fine after a good sleep.
PEI GE wanted to say something more, but when she thought of her status, she held back and finally said,””Alright, CEO Ji. I understand. Have a good rest at home, then.”
He did not say anything else and just hung up.
The moment her phone screen dimmed, her heart turned dark as well. The hand holding the phone dropped, and her originally bright eyes were now covered with a layer of mist. She could only stare blankly at the man’s empty office, unable to calm down.
After the call ended, Ji Ziming lay on his bed in a daze. He was actually afraid of showing his cowardice in front of her, so he hung up the phone immediately after he finished talking about business, not wanting her to show him any more pity.
