I love your mom's stinky self!
Jiang Xia was about to retort with a smile when a phone rang.
He glanced at the screen; it was his wife calling.
"Miss, I'm going to take this call. Please have a seat for a bit." He smiled helplessly: "Work is just a bit of a hassle."
Zhang Yuanyuan watched him walk out with his phone, and after the door closed, her heart pounded nervously.
She was quite certain that Jiang Xia was flirting with her, and since that was the case, she had even less reason to give up this golden opportunity.
Although she doesn't know much about him yet, just the fact that he's the CEO of Qitian Animation Company means she could easily extract some resources from him, enough to save her decades of hard work.
"It's almost time to get off work. Are you coming home tonight?" Lin Yanwan's voice came through the receiver.
Jiang Xia walked to the window, glanced at the reception room, and said with a mysterious smile, "Baby, guess who I ran into at the company today?"
"Old Wang, Su Qing, or godmother?"
"No, I ran into that green tea bitch."
"That green tea bitch, the one who tricked Old Wang in our past life?"
“Yes, she came all the way here to see Lao Wang. Although I don’t know what their relationship is now, I chatted with that green tea bitch for a while and found out that she’s starting to have designs on me.” Jiang Xia couldn’t help but chuckle.
"Trying to take advantage of you?" Lin Yanwan asked in a strange tone.
With Jiang Xia's current charm, good looks, and wealth, if he were to reveal even a tiny bit of gentleness, it would be an absolute game-changer for girls his age.
"Yes, I just threw out a nail, and the green tea took the bait without even thinking."
"I'm warning you, don't do anything reckless. It's okay to have fun, but be careful. When you come back tonight, I want to know the whole story," Lin Yanwan warned.
Jiang Xia said, "Don't worry, baby, I have a recording. I'm doing this just to let Lao Wang know what kind of person that green tea is. I'm going to have dinner with Lao Wang tonight, so don't wait for me."
"Remember to bring the recording back!"
"Okay, okay, I got it. Love you, u~"
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xia glanced at the time again, opened the previous recording, and confirmed that she could hear the conversation clearly. She breathed a slight sigh of relief.
He mentally prepared a few words, then turned on the recording function on his phone again and pushed the door open to go inside.
"Miss, I'm sorry, I have to host an animation seminar soon, so let's stop here for today?" he said with a gentle smile.
Zhang Yuanyuan nodded. Although she hadn't heard a reply about whether he liked her or not, there was no need to rush this matter.
"It's alright, Mr. Jiang, please go ahead with your work and don't worry about me."
She stood up, hesitated for a few seconds, and blushed slightly before saying, "Mr. Jiang, could we exchange contact information? I... I mean, if we have time in the future, we could have a meal together."
"No problem, just tell me your phone number and I'll write it down. I can't quite remember my own number," Jiang Xia said with an apologetic smile.
"My phone number is..."
Zhang Yuanyuan read her phone number, feeling secretly pleased. With a phone, the two of them could communicate privately. She wondered how long it would take to win him over.
"I send you."
Jiang Xia considerately escorted her to the elevator and called for it: "If I weren't so busy today, I could have had dinner with you, Miss. Sigh, I'm so sad."
"It's alright, Mr. Jiang. Work is more important. Besides, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future." Zhang Yuanyuan's face was flushed. After a pause, she said shyly, "I also really want to have dinner with Mr. Jiang."
Jiang Xia pretended to look around, and seeing that no one was around, he leaned down slightly and whispered in her ear: "I'll call you when I have time."
Zhang Yuanyuan's body stiffened, and she let out a soft "hmm" from her throat. President Jiang was so good at flirting; she felt her body go limp.
At that moment, the elevator doors opened.
Zhang Yuanyuan took a deep breath: "President Jiang, I'll head back now~ Bye-bye~"
"Bye-Bye."
She stepped into the elevator, turned around, and gave a sweet smile: "By the way, Mr. Jiang, my name is Zhang Yuanyuan."
“Yuanyuan, it sounds like a fairy’s name, but I wonder where it’s round.” Jiang Xia looked around and smiled meaningfully.
Zhang Yuanyuan blushed and deliberately puffed out her chest, but due to the thickness of her down jacket, it didn't look noticeable.
"Oh, I...I don't know either," she said shyly, her head down.
"Haha, bye-bye, see you next time."
"Okay, goodbye, Mr. Jiang."
As the elevator doors slowly closed, Zhang Yuanyuan, holding her phone, drifted into a wonderful daydream, wondering when the young, handsome, wealthy, and gentle Mr. Jiang would call her.
As for Wang Ming, she had long forgotten about him and he wasn't even a backup option anymore; all she wanted was to get Jiang Xia.
If she could still get information about Jiang Xia from Wang Ming, she would have even deleted it directly.
Watching Zhang Yuanyuan leave, Jiang Xia breathed a sigh of relief. He was disgusted by the fact that she had been acting against her conscience for so long.
However, it's still worth it. This green tea is exactly the same as her character in my previous life. She only wants to marry a rich man. Once she has higher aspirations, she can dump her current partner without hesitation. For a reborn person like him, dealing with such a scheming woman is a piece of cake.
Based on the recordings we have so far, we can practically pinpoint her down.
Back at the company, Jiang Xia went to the front desk and said, "Sister Liu, if that girl comes again, just kick her out."
Liu Xinyue was slightly startled. Weren't the two of them just chatting and laughing happily? How did they suddenly turn on each other?
She even suspected her boss was having an affair, but the girl wasn't as pretty as the boss's wife. She was probably just keeping an eye on things for her friend.
However, since the boss gave the order, she should do it regardless of the reason.
"Okay, boss."
After giving his instructions, Jiang Xia walked over to Lao Wang's workstation and gently tapped on his desk: "Lao Wang, let's go out for a meal later."
"Just the two of us? Where's your sister-in-law?"
"She's not going."
Wang Ming was slightly surprised. Ever since this guy started dating Lin Yanwan, the two of them had never eaten alone. Even in the high school cafeteria, they would always sit at the same table together for various reasons.
"What's wrong? Is something the matter?"
"Let's just chat casually, nothing much, just talk about animation, work, and studies," Jiang Xia said.
"Okay, then wait for me to finish drawing this part."
Wang Ming nodded, not thinking much of it; it had indeed been a long time since he had eaten or drunk with him.
Jiang Xia went to tell Li Weiya that he was going out to dinner with Wang Ming later to talk about work.
Li Weiya readily agreed.
