She is the adopted daughter of the powerful Ji family at the pinnacle of influence, rumored to be frail and weak.
He is the divine son of the Ji family that created this peak, rumored to be a...
Li Xiaole and Li Muning then turned their attention to her face, where her pale complexion made the dark circles under her eyes stand out even more.
The person, who was usually full of energy, seemed to have lost all his vitality and looked listless.
"Yingying, are you feeling unwell?"
"No, we should go to the hospital to get it checked out."
The two men grabbed Ji Fuying's hands at the same time, preparing to take her to the hospital. It was the first time they had seen her so haggard after knowing her for so long.
It's definitely a serious illness; you must go to the hospital to get it checked out.
Ji Fuying pulled them back, walked to the sofa, sat down, poured herself a glass of water, and felt much better after drinking it.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. I just didn't sleep well last night."
She waited all night, but he still didn't say anything. She gave a bitter laugh to herself. She was already feeling so bad even though she hadn't found out anything yet.
What if... what if the truth really came out in front of her? How would she accept it? In the end, she gave up the idea of investigating the matter.
Let bygones be bygones. Dwelling on it won't benefit anyone. Fools are often lucky, and those who know nothing are probably happier.
Meeting room.
Today's morning meeting made the high-ranking officials present feel uneasy, and almost no one dared to look up at that iceberg that exuded coldness.
A few minutes later, a deep voice broke the silence of the conference room, "So you're planning to have me give you a report today?"
He spoke casually, but those listening were terrified and broke out in a cold sweat. How could they dare to do that?
After a few more seconds of silence, Ji Fuying stood up and walked towards the projector, where data appeared on the white screen.
"The development of the Floating Firefly Island project has officially begun, and all participating companies are already in operation. I believe it will be soon..." Ji Fuying, the general manager, is in charge of the Floating Firefly Island project.
With her leading the way, the other executives also began their own reports, and the meeting ended two hours later.
The executives nodded toward the president's seat and then quickly left the conference room.
The president's aura is getting stronger and stronger, especially for those closest to Ji Yan. These two hours have been unbearable for them.
The overwhelming sense of oppression made them afraid to even breathe too loudly, and for the first time they realized that having a high position was not necessarily a good thing.
After turning off the projector, Ji Fuying tidied up the documents on the table and prepared to leave.
Who's she going to show a cold face to? She had originally planned to talk to him nicely, but now it seems impossible. She's not willing to offer her warm face to someone who's cold to her.
As he reached the door, the man said, "General Manager Ji, please come to my office," and left the meeting room.
Ji Fuying coldly watched his departing figure. It was clearly his fault, yet he dared to give her such a hard time. She was going to have a serious talk with him today and not spoil him too much.
At the entrance to the CEO's office.
Seeing the angry figure, Han Xiao quickly put down the steamed bun in his hand and went to open the door. "Miss Ji, Mr. Ji instructed that you can go in directly."
Ji Fuying walked to the sofa and sat down, without even glancing at Ji Yan who was working.
Ji Yan looked up at her, then continued with his work, waiting for her to speak first.
Ten minutes passed, and neither of them spoke.
Disappointed, Ji Fuying picked up the documents on the table and prepared to leave. She was not someone who compromised easily, especially when she had not made a mistake.
A flicker of panic crossed Ji Yan's eyes as he worked with his head down. Before he could even process what was happening, he had already taken a step forward.
He stopped Ji Fuying as she walked to the door and teased, "When did our Ji family's gentlest little princess turn into a little hedgehog?"
Ji Fuying pouted and turned away from him, refusing to look at him. Ha, he'd ignored her for so long, now it was her turn to not want to talk.
It was rare to see such a lively side to this petite woman, and a relaxed smile appeared on his face, his anger instantly dissipating.
He wrapped his arms around her from behind, his thin lips close to her ear, "Don't be angry anymore, it was my fault, okay?"
Ji Fuying twisted her body, but couldn't escape his arm. She glanced at him sideways and asked, "What did I do wrong?"
He couldn't say it.
It seems Han Xiao's words aren't so credible. Admitting your mistake first is useless, damn it.
See? She still doesn't know where she went wrong. So why did you call her over?
"If Yingying says I'm wrong, then I'm wrong too. Why don't you beat me up?" He bet she wouldn't.
Ji Fuying could see the cunning in his eyes clearly. Was he betting that she wouldn't be willing to give it up?
But she really couldn't bear to part with it; he had made the right bet.
"Fine, I forgive you."
Although he didn't know exactly where he went wrong, Ji Yan still took the opportunity to back down, saying, "Look how gentle, generous, and tolerant my Yingying is."
"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Ji. I'll head back to my office now." Finally, I've managed to handle this unpredictable man; it's more tiring than going to work.
"Ah!" Suddenly suspended in mid-air, Ji Fuying was picked up by the man and carried towards the lounge. The desire in his eyes was clearly visible. She gave in, "Can we wait until tonight?"
What do you think?
Needless to say, she knew it was impossible. She hoped he would show mercy and not keep her too long, as there were still things in the office waiting for her to handle.
For two whole hours, the woman's angry shouts could be faintly heard from the lounge: "How long have you been starving? If your needs are so great, you might as well become a gigolo."
It took Ji Fuying a long time to recover before she walked out, leaning against the wall. Ji Yan came out from behind her and picked her up, then sat her on the sofa.
"I'm only your gigolo, and I haven't charged you. You should feel lucky."
