Seeing the anger on Ji Pengfei's face, Ji Zhinan's smile deepened.
The Ji and Mu families have always gotten along well, and there is a high degree of trust between them.
After what she said today, Ji Pengfei has probably become wary of Mu Daxiang.
If they are not of one mind, destroying the Mu and Ji families will be much easier than before.
The hardest thing to eliminate between people is suspicion; once it starts, it's hard to stop...
Ji Pengfei thought about many things, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Mu Daxiang looked down on him.
Originally, I wanted to give Ji Zhinan a good scolding, but if I did, wouldn't that be tantamount to admitting that everything was Ji Zhinan's fault?
No, the reason why Mu's Group postponed its listing was because Mu Minmin was talking nonsense without thinking. What does it have to do with the Ji family?
We absolutely cannot take the blame for this!
Ji Pengfei looked at Ji Zhinan, his tone slightly stiff: "Alright, this is the only time. Don't let it happen again. Go back now."
Ji Zhinan raised an eyebrow: "Okay, Dad."
After saying that, she turned and left without looking back.
As soon as Ji Zhinan left, Ji Pengfei sat back down in his seat and continued to think about what Ji Zhinan had just said.
The more she thought about it, the worse her complexion became.
…………
Outside, Lily kept secretly watching Ji Pengfei's office door.
On her table was a teacup, the very tea she had poured for Ji Zhinan.
Although somewhat reluctant, she was the chairman's daughter after all.
After Lily finished making the tea, she found the office door was closed, so she didn't bring it in immediately.
Finally, the door was pushed open, and Ji Zhinan walked out.
Lily quickly looked away, pretending to be working diligently, but she was extremely uneasy inside.
Ji Zhinan saw her quickly avert her gaze, a smile playing on her lips, and walk over.
Lily felt a buzzing in her ears and couldn't hear anything. She didn't know if Ji Zhinan had left or not.
until--
"Is this tea for me?"
Upon hearing the sound, Lily looked up abruptly, and Ji Zhinan was looking at her with a half-smile.
She immediately glanced at the teacup on her table. Feeling somewhat embarrassed and slightly annoyed, Lily retorted, "Nonsense! This is clearly tea I drank myself!"
"Really?" Ji Zhinan raised an eyebrow and glanced silently at Lily's own cup next to him.
“I remember saying I don’t like strong tea, and Miss Lily actually took it to heart.”
She smiled slightly, picked up her teacup, and politely took a sip.
"Yes, it's good tea, thank you."
“…” Lily stared at her blankly.
Ji Zhinan took a sip before putting the cup down: "I have something to do, so I'll be leaving now. Thank you again for the tea, Miss Lily."
She nodded and left.
Lily was initially furious and very unhappy.
But Ji Zhinan's actions just now slowly extinguished the anger in her heart.
Most people wouldn't think Ji Zhinan did anything special, but Lily, having worked at Ji's for so many years, values certain small details.
For example, if someone pours you tea, you should take a sip regardless of whether you're thirsty or not; it's the simplest way to show respect.
And that "thank you"...
Ji Zhixia often comes to the company, so Lily naturally knows her.
Compared to Ji Zhixia, who was pampered to the extreme by the chairman, Ji Zhinan was much more polite.
She painstakingly brewed tea and squeezed juice for Ji Zhixia, but Ji Zhixia either refused to drink it or complained with a look of disgust, saying that she had made it taste bad, and she never said thank you.
Just comparing this, she felt that Ji Zhinan was better than Ji Zhixia.
