Chapter 174 Compensation for Emotional Distress



Tian Jingjing secretly glanced in Ji Lun's direction and found that he was only busy with his own things and did not look over at all, which made her frown.

Damn it! What's with the arrogance?

Sister Zhang always says she's supported by Ji Lun, but she doesn't believe it. It's just a job, what's so difficult about that?

After Mr. Sun finished his introduction, Tian Jingjing smiled sweetly and said, "Hello everyone, my name is Tian Jingjing. I'm new here, so please take care of me. I hope we can work together happily in the future. This afternoon, I'll treat everyone to milk tea, how about that?"

Wow, we get milk tea this afternoon!

"Miss Tian, ​​you're too kind!"

"Great! Miss Tian is beautiful inside and out!" Some people in the crowd cheered, and others whistled.

Seeing everyone's excited expressions, Tian Jingjing glanced at Ji Lun, who remained unmoved, and tightened her grip on her hands hanging by her sides.

In the afternoon, the deliveryman brought the milk tea, and Tian Jingjing carried it to each workstation to distribute it, and her colleagues thanked her one by one.

When she reached Ji Lun, the bag in her hand was empty. Tian Jingjing forced a sweet smile and said, "I'm so sorry, Mr. Ji. I may not have calculated correctly. There's no more bag here. I'm really sorry!"

Ji Lun didn't even glance at her, and went straight to the printer to print the document.

Tian Jingjing tightened her grip on the milk tea bag, then followed.

The printer is in the corner of the office, and there aren't many people around.

Tian Jingjing said, "Are you unhappy to see me here?"

Ji Lun glanced at her sideways, said nothing, and continued organizing the printed documents in his hand.

"I ordered milk tea for everyone except you, are you angry?"

Ji Lun still ignored her.

"I'm talking to you!" Tian Jingjing's sweet smile could no longer be maintained.

Ji Lun put down the documents in his hand with some impatience, staring at her with his dark eyes, "Tian Jingjing, now that you're working, can you stop being so childish? You go to your job, I'll go to mine, and we won't bother each other, okay?"

After saying this, Ji Lun took the printed documents and left.

Tian Jingjing watched Ji Lun's figure, her hands hanging at her sides tightening.

“Jilun…” Tian Jingjing called out, biting her lip.

"Is there anything else?" Ji Lun paused and turned to look at her.

Tian Jingjing kept her head down, but her eyes kept glancing at the watch on Ji Lun's wrist. "Ji Lun, we've been together for so long, there must be some feelings between us..."

"What do you want to say?" Ji Lun interrupted her, not wanting to hear anything else.

Tian Jingjing took a deep breath. "I'm a girl, and a girl's youth is limited. I've been with you for so long, and I've suffered a bit of a loss. Shouldn't you give me some compensation for emotional distress?"

Ji Lun was almost laughing in exasperation. His dark eyes were fixed on her. "Is this the life you want? Are you happy with President Sun?"

Fearing that Ji Lun might use this opportunity to bring up getting back together, Tian Jingjing quickly nodded, "I'm doing very well now, Ji Lun. This is the life I want."

Ji Lun raised an eyebrow. "Very well, so you know President Sun through me. Thinking about it that way, Tian Jingjing, shouldn't you pay me a little commission?"

Tian Jingjing was speechless for a moment, staring blankly at the man in front of her. He used to be indecisive and did whatever he said. How did he become so eloquent now?

Tian Jingjing was still a little unwilling, and said with red eyes, "Jilun, it's not easy for a girl like me in this big city. I don't feel safe at all, so I want to keep all my money firmly in my own hands. You understand me, right?"

He used to feel sorry for Tian Jingjing when he saw her with red eyes and a pitiful look, but today, he felt extremely irritated.

Ji Lun squinted at her, wanting to see just how big this woman's appetite was.

How many do you want?

Upon hearing Ji Lun speak, Tian Jingjing immediately raised her hand to wipe away her tears. She knew it; Ji Lun was susceptible to her feigning pitifulness and weakness.

"It's not much, I don't want a lot of money, it's just that we've been together for so long, I want to keep a memento, could you give me the watch I fixed for you last time?"

Ji Lun was taken aback; he hadn't expected this answer. He had thought she would ask for tens of thousands of yuan.

However, remembering that the watch was bought from Lao Lu, and that Lao Lu had sent someone to pick her up from the police station, she said, "No way!"

"But this is all I want!" Tian Jingjing suddenly burst into tears, looking at him through her teary eyes.

"Tian Jingjing, it's over, it's over. There's nothing to regret between us. Besides, this watch isn't anything fancy. You can't get any money out of it, and it won't give you any sense of security. If you don't have anything else, I'll be leaving now!"

After saying that, Ji Lun turned to leave.

"Jilun! Stop right there!" Tian Jingjing shouted.

"Are you shouting so loudly to call everyone over?" Ji Lun said impatiently.

Ji Lun was always very accommodating to Tian Jingjing and spoke to her gently. This was the first time she had seen this man with such a cold face, and she was quite indignant.

“Call them if you want, what’s there to be afraid of?” Tian Jingjing said, raising her chin.

"I don't care. At most, people will say I've been cheated on. But you should think this through. Mr. Sun is a married man. If you don't want to be called a mistress, then go ahead and call everyone here!"

The thought of being pointed at and gossiped about made Tian Jingjing shudder, and she shrank back.

Seeing that she didn't say anything more, Ji Lun took the printed documents and returned to his workstation.

Tian Jingjing's workstation was right next to General Manager Sun's office. In the afternoon, a colleague brought over several documents that needed General Manager Sun's signature. Tian Jingjing smiled and said, "Just give them to me!"

Tian Jingjing walked into President Sun's office in high heels, and it took her an hour to come out.

Ji Lun stared at the closed office door, his grip on the pen tightening.

To be honest, his and Tian Jingjing's ending was actually predetermined a long time ago. The two of them had incompatible values ​​and were not on the same path at all. It was he who lowered his bottom line time and time again to tolerate her.

The man gave a bitter laugh, now that he thinks about it, he feels like he wasted his youth.

In the luxurious living room of the Xu family's old mansion, Xu Jingyan and her mother were sitting on the sofa arranging flowers.

Xu Jingyan's phone suddenly rang. She saw that it was Cheng Siyan calling and swiped to answer.

As soon as the call connected, I heard the girl's anxious voice on the other end, "Sister Jingyan, I was just at the First Amusement Park with my friends, and guess what I saw?"

Xu Jingyan smiled gently, "Siyan, stop being so mysterious. I can't guess. Just say what you want to say!"
