This was her first time having such close contact with him; he was aloof and indifferent.
Everyone told her, "He isn't interested in women, so don't get too deeply involved with h...
Chapter 68 Taking Her with Him
Ji Bingqian did not answer immediately, but turned his head and asked Xu Yueqing's opinion with his eyes.
He actually asked for her opinion.
Xu Yueqing was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly.
The next second, Xu Yueqing heard Ji Bingqian's Cantonese voice coming from his ears, his voice was low and pleasant.
"Then go in first."
Manager He immediately made a gesture to invite them in and led the two of them inside.
Ji Bingqian held Xu Yueqing's hand and followed behind.
Walking through the corridor lined with landscape paintings, Xu Yueqing had a problem with his mind.
How come Mr. Ji is so fluent in Cantonese?
The two followed Manager He into the innermost private room on the third floor.
The door of the box is carved with exquisite dark patterns and looks very valuable.
The two of them had just sat down and Manager He was about to close the door when he heard the voices of two women talking in the corridor outside.
The voice was sharp and mean, like a poisoned needle.
"Hey, did you hear? Xu Yueqing, who was in the limelight at the meeting today, actually got to where she is today by sleeping with men!"
Xu Yueqing's hand, which had just picked up the teapot to pour water, stopped in mid-air.
She subconsciously looked towards the crack in the door and vaguely saw two figures in media uniforms walking past.
The discussion continued, and every word clearly penetrated her ears.
"I heard about it! She's a genius. I heard from an acquaintance that she lost her virginity to Professor Chen Gang when she was eighteen, and that's why Chen Gang has been devotedly following her ever since."
"During the years she was away from the institute, it wasn't because of any family matters. I heard she went to give birth to Chen Gang's child!"
Bang!
Manager He reacted very quickly and immediately slammed the door shut.
Those filthy discussions were instantly blocked out.
The entire box was so quiet that only the sound of Xu Yueqing's breathing could be heard.
Ji Bingqian didn't say anything, but just stared at her with his deep eyes without blinking, watching her go from stiffness to sarcasm in her eyes and then regain her composure.
The hand that was hanging in the air finally fell down steadily.
Amber tea poured out from the spout of the pot and poured into the white porcelain teacup, making a crisp sound and breaking the suffocating silence in the box.
The corners of her mouth pulled up slightly, a very faint arc, like a smile, but also like something else.
It came as expected.
She knew that what happened at the research institute today would definitely cause her to have countless discussions.
I just didn't expect it to be so fast and so dirty.
This world is really strange.
If a woman succeeds by her own ability, they will insist on saying that she got there by selling her body.
If it were a man, they would praise him and say that he is very capable and amazing.
How ridiculous.
A hint of cold irony emerged in Xu Yueqing's heart.
She didn't intend to pay attention.
People with a dirty heart see everything as dirty.
If you want to make these people shut up, the best way is to stand at a height that they can never reach, and use the strength that they will never be able to achieve in their lifetime to smash their faces.
Ji Bingqian looked at the sarcasm in her eyes and finally spoke in a deep voice.
"I'll let the public relations department handle the media opinions."
Xu Yueqing's emotions had been completely suppressed by herself.
She raised her hand and handed the freshly poured cup of tea to Ji Bingqian.
Then, he slowly poured himself another glass.
She picked up her teacup and shook her head.
"It's okay, Mr. Ji."
"I don't care about that."
She blew gently on the hot air from the rim of the cup, her tone calm as if she was talking about someone else.
"Other people have their own mouths, so let them say whatever they want."
