She was stunned for a few seconds before she asked with a blushing face,””Senior brother, what you said makes sense. I … I’ve decided. I’ll talk to Ling Feng about this tonight. But the gifts for you and Xue ‘er … I …”
“Aiya, PEI GE. It’s great that you’ve thought it through.” Ye Changqing’s brows relaxed at her words and he laughed heartily as he slapped his thigh.””I originally thought that this order of mine would make you and Ji group feel even more honored, but I didn’t expect to hear all those rumors outside the moment I came up. I even saw with my own eyes that that kid is plotting against you. Speaking of which, I’m really guilty for almost causing you and Ji Ziming to fall out. But fortunately, it’s not too late. In any case, I’ve already said that the most important thing in my and Xue ‘er’s gifts is the thought behind it. If it can be perfect, that would be even better, but it doesn’t matter if it can’t be perfect. I also believe that Xue’ er values my sincerity more. ”
“Alright, senior brother, thank you for your advice today. Don’t worry, I’ll explain this to Ziming properly. I also believe that our relationship can stand the test and won’t be estranged because of this small misunderstanding. By the way, it’s getting late. Let’s have dinner together?” She thought of how ye Changqing came up here today and did not see the first draft of the present. Instead, he was mentally and physically exhausted because of her and Ji Ziming’s matter. She would feel very apologetic if she did not treat him to a meal.
Hearing that, ye Changqing laughed and said,””Cough, there’s no need to eat. I even asked Xue ‘er out for a movie tonight. You don’t have to feel bad about it. Remember what I told you and sort out this matter as soon as possible. If you’re not happy with that fellow, Xue ‘er and I will feel bad too. Alright, I’ll be leaving first. I’ll come and see you another day. ”
Seeing that ye Changqing was about to get up, she also stood up and smiled uneasily.””Alright then, senior brother. I’ll let you go. ”
!!
Ye Changqing reached out to stop her.”No need. I’m not really your client. I don’t need you to serve me tea and be so respectful.” Alright, aren’t you working overtime? You can continue with your work, I’ll be on my way. ”
Seeing that he was insistent, PEI GE did not press the issue. The moment the office door slammed shut, she slumped back onto the sofa.
Looking at the manuscripts on the table that he had just analyzed with Ling Feng, the frustration in his heart was like a rising tide.
“Dong Dong Dong!” Just as she was thinking about how to explain it to Ling Feng, the office door rang again.
Ling Feng came in with a cup of fragrant coffee in his hand. He strode towards her with his long legs.
‘PEI GE, I’ve been busy all day, so I made you a cup of hand-ground coffee. I saw that your friend was here, so I didn’t disturb you. Bring it in immediately. Here, drink it while it’s hot. ” As he said this, he passed the cup of coffee to her.
If this were any other time, PEI GE would have thought that it was the usual concern of a companion, but when ye Changqing said that he wanted to kiss her, she was taken aback. The words kept repeating in her mind like a spell. In a flash, she reflexively backed away and stared at Ling Feng with her eyes wide open like a Frightened Rabbit.
Ling Feng’s signature warm man smile asked,””What’s wrong? Don’t you like this cup of coffee?”
“Lingfeng, let me ask you. Have you … Always been interested in me?” She stared at him as if he was a monster.
“Ha! PEI GE, what are you talking about?” Ling Feng, however, acted as if he had just heard a joke. As if he had been electrocuted, he chuckled and shook his strong shoulders.””You … Why would you suddenly … Suddenly ask such a question? Didn’t I tell you the truth before we came to A city? I only came to you because I wanted to do the design you mentioned. ”
“Is that really all? You don’t have any other thoughts?” She raised her chin again and confirmed with a suspicious look,””You know that I’ve always been a man of my word. I hate it when people lie to me or approach me with other motives. I don’t think I’ve told you this before, but today I want to tell you that I once had a friend I trusted very much. He was very good to me, just like a steady and reserved big brother. However, in the end, I found out that not only did he have ulterior motives towards me, but he also caused my mother’s death. Because of this, I couldn’t trust the people around me for a long time and was even about to become depressed. So, Lingfeng, don’t lie to me, or I’ll hate you. ”
‘PEI GE, I’m sorry to hear about your past. No wonder you were so wary of me when we were in the old town and didn’t believe that I was purely trying to help you like other people. So it’s all because you once had such an experience. However, don’t worry, I, Ling Feng, am a man. I swear to the heavens that I will never use a woman to do evil things. You can trust me one hundred percent, I have no intention of betraying you. ” Ling Feng’s righteous words moved PEI GE’s heart.
She blinked her lively eyes and asked,””Lingfeng, you don’t have to make such an oath. I know that this is just a trick that men use to deceive little girls. Moreover, you have to know that I’m already past the age of listening to love. Naturally, I won’t do it just because you said so. I want you to promise me to write this into our employment contract. Can you promise me that?”
Ling Feng was stunned for a few seconds before he suddenly asked,””PEI GE … Are you … Are you suspecting me?” Ling Feng found it unbelievable. He had come all the way here to help her complete her design, but she had treated him with such disdain.
“No, Lingfeng, I’m not suspecting you. I just …” Seeing the suspicious look on his face, which also seemed to be a question, she suddenly felt vexed. With one hand on her waist and the other on her forehead, she said,””Lingfeng, I hope you can understand me. I’m a woman with a family, but we’ve been facing each other every day. In fact, we both know that it’s all for work, but in the eyes of our colleagues and outsiders, it’s hard to separate our relationship. Signing a contract was just to better carry out the work. Besides, if we’re in an employer-employee relationship, we’ll have to sign the contract, right?”
“It’s not that I’m against it, PEI GE. I just feel that since we’ll have to sign this contract sooner or later, why did it have to happen today when you told me to keep my distance?” Ling Feng laughed in disdain and said,””It’s nothing. I can understand. I’m just asking casually. Alright, I’ll sign the contract, so don’t make things difficult for yourself. In the end, I know you’re doing this for the sake of your relationship with Ji Ziming. It’s okay, get someone to prepare it. I’ll bring the relevant documents to you tomorrow when I get to work. It’s getting late, and we’re almost done with the first draft. If there’s nothing else, I’ll get off work first. ”
