"Xiaotian, I'm so sorry, I'm not feeling well today and I accidentally fell asleep just now."
Tian Jingjing smiled gently and said softly, "It's okay."
Seeing that Tian Jingjing did not resist such actions, a hint of calculation flashed in President Sun's cunning and shrewd eyes.
Ji Lun had been focused on driving the whole time, and since the scene had happened so suddenly, by the time he looked in the rearview mirror, the two of them were already sitting up straight again.
The next day, Ji Lun went to work as usual.
An extra meeting was added at 10 a.m. today. Just after 9 a.m., General Manager Sun hurriedly walked to Ji Lun's workstation.
"Mr. Sun, what's wrong? Please let me know if there's anything you need." Seeing this, Ji Lun quickly stood up and asked with concern.
Mr. Sun first glanced around warily, then leaned down slightly and said in a low voice, "Xiao Ji, today's meeting at ten o'clock is being chaired by the chairman himself, not our usual departmental meeting."
Ji Lun's expression hardened, and he nodded solemnly, replying, "Yes, I know what I'm doing, so don't worry! I will definitely do my best and there won't be any mistakes."
Mr. Sun gave him a deep look, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly said, "Of course I trust you, but I have a problem right now and I need your help. To be precise, I need to ask Xiao Tian for help."
"Jingjing?" Ji Lun repeated subconsciously.
“That’s right, I took my work computer home last night. All the key documents for today’s meeting are on it. It’s already past nine o’clock. I live far from here. If I go back to get it now, I definitely won’t make it in time. I thought you live not far from me…” Mr. Sun looked anxious, his brows furrowed into a deep frown.
Ji Lun suddenly realized and replied, "Oh, I see."
Mr. Sun's expression grew increasingly serious, and he spoke earnestly, "So, Xiao Ji, you understand what I mean, right? I'd like to trouble your girlfriend to go to my house and pick up the computer for me, is that alright? All the hard work our department has put in over the past few days is on that computer. If we can't get the computer, getting a scolding from the chairman is a minor issue; the real problem is that our year-end bonus might be gone."
Asking Jingjing to go to a man's house to pick something up made Ji Lun feel a little uneasy, but then he thought that with President Sun standing right in front of him, nothing bad should happen. So he nodded in agreement.
"Okay, then give me Xiaotian's phone number! I need to tell her my house access code and where my computer is."
Just before 10 o'clock, Tian Jingjing finally delivered Mr. Sun's computer on time.
Mr. Sun accepted the computer with a grateful expression, but as soon as he returned to his office, he casually tossed it aside and didn't even glance at it until the meeting started.
After getting off work in the evening, Ji Lun went out to deliver food as usual.
As Mr. Sun watched Ji Lun, wearing a helmet and mounting his electric scooter, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face. He said loudly, "Little Ji, that's really great! You've worked all day and you're still working so hard. You even continue delivering food after get off work. You're truly an ambitious young man!"
Ji Lun gave a bitter smile and replied helplessly, "It's because I'm not very capable. I can't create better living conditions for Jingjing, so I can only work harder myself."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, the two went their separate ways. Mr. Sun drove his BMW to the left and sped away, leaving only a trail of exhaust fumes in the blink of an eye; Ji Lun rode his electric scooter to the right, slowly blending into the bustling street and disappearing into the vibrant, everyday life of the city.
About half an hour later, the BMW came to a steady stop in front of a slightly dilapidated building.
Mr. Sun took out his phone and dialed Tian Jingjing's number: "Xiao Tian, thanks to you for helping deliver the computer today, the meeting was able to proceed smoothly. To express my gratitude, let me treat you to a meal!"
Tian Jingjing pretended to decline, but President Sun persisted and continued to persuade her, "Little Tian, I've already driven my car to your building and have been waiting here for half an hour. If you don't come down soon, it will be very disrespectful to me."
"Mr. Sun, it's not really appropriate for us, a man and a woman, to go out for dinner. I'm afraid Ji Lun might misunderstand," Tian Jingjing said coquettishly.
"Hey, it's just a meal, what's the big deal? Xiao Ji can't come back right now, he's still out delivering food!" Boss Sun said dismissively.
Upon hearing this, Tian Jingjing's chest heaved with anger. Delivering takeout? Ji Lun had actually been delivering takeout behind her back? Had he gone mad? After studying so much, he was delivering takeout; didn't he feel ashamed at all?!
If Sister Zhang finds out, she'll probably laugh at them behind their backs!
Thinking about how Qiu Mang moved into a luxury house in Guangcheng after hooking up with Lu Yanting, and how her younger sister was able to attend a prestigious school in Guangcheng as a result, she realized that they could even afford to hire a nanny now.
Both of them came from rural backgrounds, so why can Qiu Mang have all of this, but she can't? Since Lu Yanting doesn't like her, then President Sun is at least a good choice.
Thinking this, Tian Jingjing replied softly into the phone, "Okay, then please wait for me for another ten minutes, Mr. Sun. I'll change my clothes and come down."
Half an hour later, the car slowly drove into a secluded private restaurant. Mr. Sun had booked a private room in advance, and the staff quickly led the two upstairs.
As soon as she entered the private room, the warm air from the air conditioner blew in, and Tian Jingjing immediately felt hot. She casually took off her coat, and the fitted knitted bodycon dress underneath was instantly revealed, making her curvaceous figure even more alluring.
Mr. Sun stared at the woman's graceful figure, momentarily lost in thought.
"Mr. Sun, we haven't ordered yet!" Tian Jingjing walked over gracefully and sat down gently next to Mr. Sun, her voice softer and more charming than usual.
Mr. Sun felt as if an electric current was coursing through his body, leaving him feeling tingly and lightheaded.
Throughout the meal, Tian Jingjing behaved in a completely different way from her usual self, maintaining a gentle and charming demeanor.
"Come on, their wine here is quite good. How about we have a few drinks?" Mr. Sun's eyes were burning with a hint of suggestion as he looked at the beautiful woman sitting opposite him.
Tian Jingjing's lips curled into a charming smile as she said sweetly, "Mr. Sun, I can't hold my liquor. Besides, you'll be driving! Drunk driving isn't safe!"
"It's alright, just a little red wine. Red wine has a low alcohol content, so it'll be fine for you. Besides, it's good for women's skin and complexion! As for me, I can just hire a driver later, it's very convenient."
