Chapter 222: Exaggerating?
She stared at the man standing by the window, her voice trembling.
"Ji Bingqian, you actually let someone investigate me?"
"Why?"
"What on earth are you doubting me about?!"
The air in the office seemed to be sucked dry, leaving only Amy's sharp questions echoing.
Ji Bingqian leaned against the floor-to-ceiling window, without changing his posture from beginning to end.
His bottomless eyes looked at her indifferently, as if he was looking at a unreasonable clown.
After a while, he pulled the corners of his lips, but there was no smile in that curve, only cold sarcasm.
"If you didn't do anything, why are you afraid of my investigation?"
This sentence was so light, but it hit Amy's heart like a heavy hammer.
A clear flash of panic flashed across her eyes, so fast that it was almost impossible to catch.
But Ji Bingqian saw it.
That moment of panic was instantly replaced by even more raging anger. Amy's voice suddenly rose an octave like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
"Ji Bingqian! We've known each other for so many years! Don't you know what kind of person I, Amy, am? You..."
Before she could finish her words, Ji Bingqian took action.
He took out a photo from the drawer, and with a flick of his finger, the thin piece of photo paper fell on the table in front of her like a dart, making a light snap.
All of Amy's words got stuck in her throat.
Her eyes were fixed on the photo. After several seconds, she reached out her slightly trembling hand and picked it up.
In the photo, she and a middle-aged man are smiling intimately against the backdrop of a brightly lit dinner party.
That man was actually Dean Chongming.
Amy's heart skipped a beat.
She threw the photo back onto the table as if she was throwing away a hot potato, raised her head, and put on a sarcastic smile.
"Just because of this?"
"Ji Bingqian, you sent someone to follow me just because of a photo?"
Now that things have come to this, there's no point in pretending any longer.
She simply laid her cards on the table.
Ji Bingqian didn't even move his eyebrows, he just pointed at the photo with his chin.
"Explain."
Amy shrugged nonchalantly and scoffed.
"We met at a dinner party, chatted for a few minutes, and took a photo together. Isn't that normal?"
"Mr. Ji, you've seen this kind of casual flirting more often than I have. What's the matter? Now you're making a big deal out of even this kind of photo?"
Ji Bingqian nodded slightly, neither saying yes nor no.
Those eyes were still looking at her seriously, as if they were examining her, or as if they were pondering something.
This silent oppression made the fire in Amy's heart burn even more fiercely.
She suddenly took a few steps forward, and her high heels made an aggressive sound on the floor.
The distance between the two people was instantly shortened.
Ji Bingqian frowned subconsciously and leaned back slightly, showing obvious resistance.
He wants to hide.
This realization completely broke a string in Amy's heart.
She suddenly reached out, grabbed Ji Bingqian's collar and pulled hard!
Ji Bingqian was pulled forward by this force, and the two were almost sticking together.
Amy raised her pale little face with a half-smile on her face.
"Ji Bingqian, don't forget."
"It was you who pushed me into this abyss."
The temperature in the office dropped to freezing point.
Amy's nails almost dug into his clothes, and her voice was low and fierce, like a poisoned knife.
"You said it, you're ashamed of me."
"So before, it didn't matter how much trouble I made. You turned a blind eye to everything I did, and even helped me."
