Liu Lina inched closer to his ear as she spoke, and the sound of her wavering breathing in and out of his ear made him feel a little lost.
At his limit, he suddenly stood up from his chair.””Liu Lina, just say whatever you want to say. Don’t try to get close to me again. I know your background very well. ”
As he spoke, his cold eyes flashed with a dark light that made people shiver.
Liu Lina’s hands quieted down at Ji Ziming’s sudden outburst and she replied,””Alright, then we’ll do business as usual. You’re my superior, but I can’t give you my plan for free. If I tell you, how are you going to thank me?”
Ji Ziming raised his hand and said,””Liu Lina, I’ve already agreed to join the Ji group. Are you still …”
Liu Lina seemed to have suddenly thought of something. She had a flash of inspiration and raised her right index finger. With her eyes wide open, she said,”Oh, right. I’ll make it clear first. I don’t want to be like that si linna or whatever. I’m not that easy to deal with!”
Feeling a headache coming on, he could only close his eyes and hold his forehead.””Tell me, what do you want?”
Liu Lina crossed her arms in front of her chest, and the corners of her lips subconsciously curled up.”I want it to be at tonight’s orientation. You’ll know then.”
Startled, he opened his eyes.””Liu Lina, I’m telling you in advance that if you want to chase si linna away, I can’t agree to it!”
“Don’t worry, I won ‘t. “Liu Lina narrowed her eyes.
“Hmph!” He harrumphed.”Alright. As long as you can keep her by my side, I’ll agree to anything.” I know that she can’t remember anything now, but she trusts you a lot. That day at my house, he was full of hostility toward me. However, what method do you have to make her stay in the competition? she has always been serious about the competition, but si linna’s standard is not something she can easily defeat. Besides, I’m afraid that if I tell her directly, she’ll just leave!”
He voiced out his doubts. Actually, even if Liu Lina did not come forward to present this plan, this was the only solution he could think of.
“Of course, she won’t accept it if you tell her, but it’s different for me. As long as I tell her that everything is possible to stay in Ji group, she’ll definitely agree. You don’t know how much effort she put in to get in.” Liu Lina said this confidently, her bright eyes full of love for Ji Ziming.
The corners of his mouth twitched. PEI GE racked her brains to come back to the Ji group and to my side. She must be trying to get even with me. If she really wants to be with me again, why did she keep her distance from me when I brought her home that night?
At this thought, he pursed his lips and did not dare to look at Liu Lina with his cold eyes.””Alright, we’ll try as you say. If it doesn’t work, our agreement will be canceled!”
After much consideration, he still agreed to Liu Lina’s request. Although he should be wary of her, what she said was not unreasonable.
After si linna got the content of the competition, she smiled rather easily. She put down the documents and muttered to herself,””This kind of competition is child’s play. It’s just a formality. It seems like CEO Ji really wants me to stay. Hmph. Perhaps he did not want to make it too obvious in front of them just now, so he told me that we must compete. Otherwise, he would have skipped it. He even said that he would treat me equally. Must this fellow be so adorable?” After she finished speaking, her dark eyes emitted a jumping light, like a dazzling firework that suddenly bloomed in the dark night sky.
Soon, it was noon, and Liu Lina came to have lunch with PEI GE.
Before she entered the office, the floor was littered with paper waste. From afar, Liu Lina could see PEI GE scratching her head with her hands at her temples, looking very troubled.
“Dong Dong Dong!” Liu Lina knocked on the glass door.
“Please come in!” She did not even raise her head.
“Pei Pei, is it difficult to hand in the competition’s draft?” Liu Lina asked as she tiptoed inside, pretending to be concerned about her.
Only then did she raise her head. With a brush in her mouth, she replied,””It’s not very difficult, but … I don’t want to give you a perfunctory report. Although it’s very different from my previous design style and has a strong commercial feel to it, it’s still my first work after joining the Ji group. I want to design something different. ”
This was PEI GE’s personality. Even if it was a formal competition, she would treat it with all her heart, wanting to bring out the best of her work.
Liu Lina had already guessed it. She crossed her arms and walked up to PEI GE.”Peipei, don’t tell me you can’t see that this competition is just Ji Ziming and Si linna testing each other? in fact, they didn’t even compare you to si linna. Even if you lose this competition, your status in Ji group is still equal to or even higher than si linna ‘s.”
She took out a pencil from her mouth, her eyes dazed.”Then what’s the point of this competition? Just go through the process?”
Liu Lina nodded.
She threw the pencil on the table and stood up.””You’re not? So we’ve been arguing so intensely in the meeting room this morning just to satisfy someone like Ji Ziming’s boredom and find fault with us?”
Liu Lina was very satisfied to see that PEI GE had a grudge against Ji Ziming. She smiled and said,”‘This isn’t the first day you’ve met him, but you really don’t remember what kind of person he was in the past. It’s not too late for you to realize it now. That’s right, he’s just that stubborn. He wants you to return to his side so that he can still play you in his hands. ”
PEI GE was so angry that she tightened her grip on the paintbrush she had thrown on the table and furrowed her brows.””Ji Ziming, you’re already giving me such a big scare on my first day here!”
“It doesn’t matter, Pei Pei. Since he wants us to play with him, we’ll play along. Si linna will be a scapegoat anyway. Moreover, as long as we compete, won’t we be able to stay in Ji group? When the time comes, will you still be afraid that you won’t have a chance to catch him?” Liu Lina rolled her eyes and started to fan the flames in PEI GE’s ears again.
She finally calmed down and gripped the pen in her hand tightly.””Alright, since it’s just a formality, I’ll show you a form that you’ll never forget!”
