Chapter 259 The Mute Boss 9 While listening to the young man's lifelike imitation of the woman named Qingcheng Yue, Zi Xi was still laughing uncontrollably.
Although he knew it was a joke, a nameless anger still surged up, making Ling Chen feel a tightness in his chest.
Why is she able to joke about this so easily?
In her mind, was it just a funny thing that he was being harassed like this?
Does she not care at all?
His face under the brim of his hat was terribly gloomy, and Ling Chen's hands, hanging at his sides, unconsciously clenched into fists.
The elevator arrived at the floor, and Zi Xi and her colleagues walked out laughing, completely unaware of the president who almost exploded on the spot in the corner.
Ling Chen took a deep breath, suppressing the unfamiliar and surging irritation in his heart, and strode towards his office, the atmosphere around him even more oppressive than usual.
The restaurant downstairs from the company building.
Zi Xi and her regular dining partner Lin Le sat facing each other.
The two grew up together and were extremely close.
"Here you are, your shredded pork with garlic sauce rice bowl. You noted that you don't want cilantro."
Lin Le naturally pushed the plate in front of her, and then very casually picked out the coriander leaves and threw them into the bone dish.
He knew she would even frown when she saw cilantro in someone else's bowl.
Thanks! You're so reliable!
"They gave us so much meat today!"
Zi Xi picked up her chopsticks with a smile.
"Hurry up and eat, stop talking so much."
Lin Le habitually teased her, but her eyes were filled with a smile.
The two ate and chatted in a relaxed and natural atmosphere.
However, all of this took on a completely different meaning in the eyes of Ling Chen, who happened to be passing by outside the window.
He was walking back to the company after finishing a business meeting in the building next door when his gaze inadvertently swept across the restaurant window and he saw that glaring scene.
Who is that man?
He was helping Xi Yan pick out the things she didn't like with remarkable ease, his movements as practiced as if he had done it a thousand times before.
Xi Yan accepted it so naturally, smiling at the man without any defenses, even with a dazzling smile.
A more distinct and unbearable irritation than the one I felt in the elevator before.
It turns out that in reality, she also had other people around her.
That's why she so decisively rejected his proposal to marry him in the game, and even pushed him towards someone else.
Ling Chen stood still, the sunlight falling on him, but it brought him no warmth whatsoever.
He stood there expressionless in the shadows, watching the couple chatting happily in the restaurant.
In the game at night.
Ling Chen silently farmed the dungeon, his efficiency was frighteningly high, as if he was venting some kind of emotion.
Gu Hong typed: "Where is she?"
Yao Guang said to Gu Hong, "Huh? Who? Brother, what's wrong with you? Your tone is strange."
Gu Hong typed: "Do you have a boyfriend or someone you like in the game? And who is this Letian? I found out he got double his allowance this month."
Ling Wei noticed that her usually aloof older brother's private chat, which carried a clear commanding tone, was unusual, and sensed something was amiss.
She immediately became excited, her gossip spirit burning brightly.
Yao Guang said to Gu Hong, "Leave it to me! I'll make sure you find out everything!"
So, Ling Wei immediately teamed up with Zi Xi, who was digging grass.
Yao Guang: "Xi Bao, let's gossip a bit. Do you have a boyfriend? Or a guy you like?"
Xi Yan: "Huh? Why are you suddenly asking this? No, I'm so busy with work that I can only play games at night. I don't have time to date."
