The man’s sharp brows could be seen under the light from the phone screen. His eyes were as sharp as fire, and his brows were tightly knitted together.
Ji ruikun took it as a silent acknowledgment, but he said in a daze,””Ziming, I just feel that I should be responsible for what I’ve done and also give Zhou Ya an explanation. It’s late at night, you should rest early. If you take things slowly, it’ll be faster. ”
“Dong Dong Dong!”
Just as he was recalling his conversation with Ji ruikun, she knocked on his office door.
The thought of Shen Feng and PEI GE getting back together made Ji Ziming feel as if someone was choking him.
At this moment, all he wanted to do was to persuade her to return to his side and tell her Shen Feng’s motive.
“In!”
She pushed the door open and entered the room when she heard his reply.
“Mr. Ji, I’m going back to the office. Aileen said you were looking for me, right?” PEI GE asked. When she thought of the information Shen Feng had shown her, she suddenly regretted speaking in such a soft tone. She should have been more firm.
Seeing the coldness in her unfocused eyes, he could guess that she was angry.
Still, no matter what her motive was, he decided to tolerate it all.
“They’re here!” He turned to look at her and gently said this. He then walked to the large swivel chair from the floor-to-ceiling window and gestured for her to sit opposite him.
In his deep eyes, the memory of his phone call with his father had long turned into gentleness.
“CEO Ji, may I know why you called me up at this time?” What she meant was that time was of the essence, and she had to rush to the first draft.
“Oh, it’s like this. Irene’s position has been transferred, and now we are in a hurry to launch the new products of the new jewelry company. I don’t know what happened to si linna these past few days. Yesterday morning, she told me that she would be taking a week’s leave. “So …” He spread out his hands, indicating that he was short of people by his side.
Thinking that he was testing her loyalty, she raised an eyebrow and asked,””Oh, don’t worry, CEO Ji. I don’t have anything to do in the near future and have recovered from my leg injury. I’ll finish the first draft as soon as possible.”
He smiled awkwardly and waved his hands.””No, no, no, Pei Pei, you’ve misunderstood. I actually wanted to say that Aileen has been transferred, and Si linna is on leave. Now, other than you, who’s more familiar with the new product project, the rest of the company doesn’t seem to be suitable to be my Special Assistant.”
This was the last resort he could think of. Other than this, he could not think of any other way to keep an eye on her.
“Special Assistant?” She was clearly surprised, but she was also secretly happy. Wouldn’t it be easier for her to obtain his dirty secrets this way?
Seeing her face turn red and then white as her eyes darted around, he could not figure it out.
The office was silent for a few seconds before he could not help but ask again,””Pei Pei, what are you thinking of to reject me again?”
“No,” she laughed dryly.”I’m just wondering if I’m competent enough for this position.”
“Oh, I see. That’s good. I was afraid that you would reject me like you did before.”
He heaved a sigh of relief and crossed his arms. With a raised brow, he asked,””How about this, in order to get the first draft done as soon as possible, you go and find Ailin to coordinate the work, and then you can ask Ailin to help you move the office supplies up!”
She clearly did not expect him to be in such a hurry, as though he was in a hurry to chase Aileen away.
She asked him,””Right now, President Ji?”
The man nodded.
She looked at him suspiciously, but she could not pinpoint what was wrong.””Alright, then.”
“Oh, by the way, there’s something you might not want to hear. We’ll be working overtime tonight. Can your feet take it?” He raised an eyebrow and pointed at her lower body, his deep-set eyes full of tenderness.
She hesitated for a moment before nodding.””Oh, my legs can walk normally now. I just can’t run or jump, that’s all. It doesn’t affect my work.”
Her face reddened, but she did not dare to meet his affectionate eyes. She only felt that his gaze was so hot that it was hard to look at.
At this moment, she was constantly reminding herself not to be bewitched by this sugar-coated bullet. After all, this was the trick he was best at.
He thought that she would be touched by his concern for her well-being, but who knew that she would only say this out of habit? he felt a little disappointed, but since she had already agreed to his request, it was still a good thing.
“Then, CEO Ji, if there’s nothing else, I’ll head out to meet with Aileen.” The corners of her lips curled up into her usual standard smile. It was good-looking but without any warmth.
Even so, he was still entranced by her. He nodded and watched as she elegantly opened the door and then gently closed it.
To him, this was like watching a romantic wedding ceremony. His PEI GE was about to take things further with him; was it not worth his good-looking smile to announce this?
It was a cloudy day in the sky above the city. The air was even a little dirty, and Si linna was alone in the apartment.
Tomorrow would be the third day after he had agreed to give Cheng Qian the results. Si linna, however, had only asked for a week’s leave and did not mention anything about the new product endorsement contract.
She kept scrolling through her phone’s contact list, up and down. Just as she was about to click on it, she locked the screen.
In the end, she was tired of this. She threw the phone on the pillow at the head of the bed, leaned against the end of the bed, and slowly slid down to sit on the ground.
“How should I tell him? She kept saying that she loved him, but in order to hide the fact that she had slept with another man, she wanted his new company to hire a dirty spokesperson? Wouldn’t I be the one destroying him and his new company?”
Si linna had a pained expression on her face as she muttered to herself non-stop. She had been in this state for the past two days.
As she spoke, she began to hold her head with both hands again. Her messy hair made her look more and more dispirited, and her beautiful eyes were now misty, as if they could not be removed.
