An Adorable Wife and her Boss - C224 Secret behind the photo (3)
Thinking that Ji Lingyue would be back soon, Yun Chi immediately took out his phone, quickly took out a photo, and put it back in his original position. He calmed down and organized the other documents on the table.
Sure enough, Ji Lingyue had returned. If he was a second late, he might have been caught red-handed.
“Lingyue, why are you back so quickly?”
“Why didn’t you stop for a moment? Just leave it for me to sort it out myself.”
“When your new assistant comes on duty, I don’t think I’ll have a chance to clean it up.” Yun Chi suddenly thought of something, “You were not satisfied with the assistants that the Human Resources Department had previously recruited. I wonder if there are any suitable students among the freshmen this time around?”
“I haven’t checked my resume yet, so I won’t bother with it. I’ll confirm it when the second round starts.”
Yun Chi nodded her head. From the looks of it, he still did not know about Tang Xiaoning, so after thinking about it, she decided not to mention it.
As Ji Lingyue processed the documents, he suggested, “It’s almost New Year’s Day, is there anywhere you want to go?”
“It’s fine. I think it’s good to rest at home!” Yun Chi did not have that many romantic feelings. Relatively speaking, her upbringing and experience had taught her to be more practical.
Ji Lingyue chuckled. So it turned out that when he liked someone, it would really change when he liked them. He actually did not feel like asking for Yun Chi’s opinion anymore, even he herself was shocked.
However, this feeling was also pretty good.
Only, he had to quickly fill Yun Chi’s heart with only herself.
“Lingyue?”
“Hmm?” Ji Lingyue lifted his head, looked at the Yun Chi who was hesitating to speak, and said, “If you have anything you want to say, just say it out loud.”
It was indeed hard for Yun Chi to say anything. The past few days, he had been too obvious about her good intentions. Was she feeling guilty about what had happened that night? “Actually, you don’t have to worry so much about my feelings. What happened that night …”
I am truly embarrassed to continue speaking, but Yun Chi’s voice had already disappeared into thin air.
Ji Lingyue was startled, how did he forget about that? He was actually grateful for that night, letting himself discover that his heart was not too late.
“You are my, Ji Lingyue’s, wife, so I don’t feel the need to love and protect you. Looking at Yun Chi, who made him feel both angry and amused, Ji Lingyue felt her heart clogged up. Was the feeling she gave her really that much of a bastard? Otherwise, why would she be treating her so well and make her feel so pressured?
“I didn’t mean that!” Yun Chi quickly explained, and she could naturally feel the anger in Ji Lingyue’s words.
Ji Lingyue left his seat and walked in front of Yun Chi, hugging her from behind, with his chin on her head, “Idiot, just tell me what you guys are thinking, I don’t have the ability to gauge a woman’s thoughts, hm?”
“Yes.” Yun Chi replied, thinking that her intentions had been misunderstood.
“He was very dissatisfied with Yun Chi’s answer. Did this little thing not care about him?” “Little Chi, I want you to remember that you’re my wife, so it’s natural that I treat you well. Of course, you can only have me in your heart.”
These words slowly flowed into Yun Chi’s ears, and as if they were bewitched, they surged into every nerve tip of her body, yet she was unable to say a single word.
Seeing Yun Chi not say anything for a long time, Ji Lingyue turned around, looked into his eyes, and pinched her nose, “Remember my words, don’t say such foolish things again in the future!”
“Why didn’t you hang a ‘Do Not Disturb’ sign at the door? Did I really come at the wrong time?”
Coincidentally, Jiang Beiwang came to find Ji Lingyue to discuss something, and upon seeing the office door open, he walked in. He did not expect to coincidentally encounter such a dignified scene, and wondered if he would leave once again?
“It seems like letting you in and out of my house as you please is a mistake!” Ji Lingyue slightly loosened his grip on Yun Chi, but he did not have any intention of letting go.
“Don’t worry, I won’t have the chance to come to your office in the future.” Jiang Beiwang paused for a moment, before continuing, “I have come to resign as an overseas lawyer consultant.”
“The reason?”
“It’s rare for us to get Zhuo Qingran to rest for a while. We’re going to travel around the world.” Jiang Beiwang was extremely excited as he said, “Do you want to consider it together?”
“Well, what about my legal counsel?”
“There are many excellent lawyers in my office. I promise to recommend excellent students to you. I’ll pay you three times the penalty.”
Ji Lingyue looked around at Jiang Beiwang, “Do you really love me this much?” Honestly, he was actually a little envious of his!
“Are you envious of me?”
“Tch!”
“Sister-in-law, isn’t it thanks to you that Qing Ran and I managed to cultivate successfully?” Jiang Beiwang spoke with sincerity.
“This is your destiny, the result of each of you cherishing each other.”
“Little Chi, help me take these documents to Shen Wenxun.” It was not hard for Ji Lingyue to guess that Jiang Beiwang was not here only because of this matter.
“Alright!” Yun Chi did not think too much into it, taking the documents and going out.
“Speak, what else do you want?” Ji Lingyue asked Jiang Beiwang.
Jiang Beiwang looked at Ji Lingyue in disbelief, “Why are you still so smart?” From when he was young until now, he had never won against Ye Zichen once.
“Don’t keep us in suspense, tell us quickly!”
“The blueprint Han Zhong Cheng helped you find is just a map. Do you have an idea?”
“Nope.” Ji Lingyue was a little doubtful, “Why did you ask this?”
“Can the information behind that map really find your father?” Jiang Beiwang hesitated.
“Yes, why, do you have any leads?”
“After my secret investigation, as long as the person associated with the map had died many years ago,” Anfey said. Jiang Beiwang said, afraid that it would affect his mood.
“I’ve already found these clues, but I found them at Grandma’s place. Then my father must be related to this map.”
This was the only clue he had about his father. Unfortunately, most people thought this blueprint was very valuable for business.
“Then the only possibility is that this blueprint was drawn by uncle. As long as we know who drew this blueprint, we can find him.” Jiang Beiwang suggested according to his sharp reasoning.
Ji Lingyue was startled, “Why didn’t I think of that?” There are some things that are always a mystery to the onlookers.
“It just so happens that I have to go out and play this time. Leave this matter to me.” The more Jiang Beiwang thought about it, the happier he became. He could not help but say, “Haha, I finally beat you once!”
“What are you guys talking about that makes you so happy? What did you win against Lingyue? ” Yun Chi, who had just pushed the door open, just happened to see Jiang Beiwang’s exaggerated laughing appearance, and was very surprised.
“What can he say? It’s all useless topics.” Ji Lingyue reprimanded Jiang Beiwang, “Do you still plan on staying here? You want to continue to pay the penalty fee? ”
“No, no, no…” Jiang Beiwang immediately waved his hand, as long as he found the creator of the blueprint, he would be able to avoid paying three times the penalty. “I’ll be leaving now, you guys continue being busy…”
It was weird, but just as Jiang Beiwang left, Lu Man came again.
“Man Man, what’s the wind today?” Ji Lingyue always hated coming to the Ji’s Building. She didn’t like being talked about behind the backs by the employees.
“Big brother, lend sister-in-law to me for a bit.” After he finished speaking, Yun Chi had already been pulled out by Lu Man.
Ji Lingyue shook his head helplessly. Who told him to keep spoiling his only sister like this?
“Man Man, why are you looking for me in such a hurry?” Yun Chi was completely confused by Lu Man’s sudden visit.
“Let’s talk in the café across the way.”
When they arrived at the cafe, Yun Chi ordered a cup of hot coffee and asked, “What happened?”
“Tang Xiaoning is on the list for the second round of Ji’s.”
“You know about it?” Yun Chi was a little surprised, not many people knew about this matter, Lu Man should not have known about it so quickly.
“Tang Xiaoning still doesn’t look that weak. If it wasn’t for Bai Yang helping me investigate, I really wouldn’t have found out about this so quickly …”
She paused. “You knew?”
Yun Chi realised that she had blurted out something, “On the day of the first selection, I met her in the first floor’s hall.”
“You already knew then, why did you only say it now, do you know that if she stayed in the Ji’s, the consequences would be unimaginable?” Lu Man never thought that Yun Chi would actually be able to say it so casually.
“She just graduated from university, she looks pure and lovely, how can it be as serious as you say? Since she is not Tang Xiaoan, then about this matter, you are overthinking it. ”
Furthermore, she was Tang Xiaoan’s little sister, shouldn’t he take good care of her?
Too much thought? “As Lu Man looked at Yun Chi, she realized that Yun Chi really was a child that couldn’t be taught. What should I say about you? Do you really believe that her appearance was all just a coincidence? ”
“Of course!” Yun Chi did not feel that anything was amiss, “She is so weak, could it be that we will kick her out of the Ji’s?”
“I can’t let her meet with my brother, definitely not!” If they were to meet, her brother would definitely waver. He might even do something out of line.
Lu Man was just someone who intuitively felt that Tang Xiaoning was not a good person either. With her appearance, he would definitely think of a way to influence her big brother’s judgement.
“Hey, sister-in-law, you’re too kind.” Lu Man knew that it would be useless to speak any further, and she would not be able to change Yun Chi’s mind even for a moment.
“It’s better to have less trouble than less. Don’t think too much about it.” Lu Man thought, no matter how much sshe talked with Yun Chi, he wouldn’t be able to solve the problem, she could only think of another way.
“If Tang Xiaoning applies to the Ji’s to work, it would also be considered a form of compensation for her sister. The pure Yun Chi really thought that Lu Man was thinking too much.
“Something like that!” Lu Man expressed her helplessness, “Let’s go, I don’t dare to borrow your working time for too long.” She still had to hurry up and think of a way to deal with this matter.
“Let’s go!” Yun Chi stood up, and accidentally smashed her phone onto the ground, which coincidentally fell next to Lu Man’s feet.
