Lin Congzhi walked out of the stairwell without saying another word, simply walking away with an aloof air.
At this moment, Jiang Yimei pouted smugly: "You bastard, you've been trying to scare me every day. Now you know how powerful I am!"
Now, she has finally found a way to defeat Lin Congzhi: to fight back fiercely and launch a desperate counterattack without reservation.
Lin Congzhi walked out without a trace of anger; instead, he had a smile on his face, feeling that the girl was as amusing as ever.
He never intended to harm Jiang Yimei; if anyone did, he would fight them to the death.
Jiang Yimei, her anger subsiding, shifted her gaze and inadvertently caught sight of the black briefcase in Lin Congzhi's hand.
The black briefcase in Lin Congzhi's hand had a bulge in one place, and its shape was long and round, resembling something like a cup.
She immediately remembered the black thermos she had seen on Lin Congzhi's desk yesterday, and she also immediately remembered what had happened yesterday.
Suspecting that the mysterious person who had been so attentive to her was Lin Congzhi, she had a bold idea to force Lin Congzhi to confess on the spot. So she rushed forward and shouted loudly in the same tone she used in her student days: "Lin Congzhi!"
Lin Congzhi felt a jolt, and for a moment he felt as if he had returned to his student days.
That year, Jiang Yimei also used that unique voice and anxious call to stop him. Whether in the classroom, the cafeteria, or the playground, such unforgettable marks were left behind.
The days of youth are so beautiful, it's just a pity that we can never go back to them.
Now it's not Jiang Yimei chasing him, but him chasing Jiang Yimei.
He was proud and arrogant, and obsessed with saving face, so he couldn't tolerate showing the slightest flaw.
So he responded seriously: "This is an office, I am your boss, please show me some respect."
Jiang Yimei repeated Lin Congzhi's condescending words with a pout, feeling indignant.
However, turning against Lin Congzhi at this time was clearly not a wise choice, so he calmed himself down and respectfully greeted him, "Manager Lin."
Feeling much better, Lin Congzhi paused for a moment before asking seriously, "What is it?"
"I...I...cough cough! cough cough!"
As she talked, Jiang Yimei, unable to find a legitimate reason, had no choice but to pretend to cough and feel unwell to deceive Lin Congzhi.
Hearing a painful cough behind him, Lin Congzhi, who was usually aloof from worldly affairs, could no longer ignore it and immediately turned around to look behind him.
When he saw that Jiang Yimei was in so much pain that she was about to collapse, he rushed over like a wild horse, caught her as she fell rapidly, and asked in a concerned tone, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Yimei never expected that Lin Congzhi, who was always aloof and detached from worldly affairs, would care about her so much. For a moment, she couldn't bear to lie to him.
However, for the sake of victory, for the sake of catching Lin Congzhi, and for the sake of making Lin Congzhi disappear from her sight completely, she hardened her heart and said, "I...I...I'm thirsty...I'm thirsty!"
The air in the stairwell was stuffy. Lin Congzhi felt that Jiang Yimei, who had been in there for too long, might be lacking oxygen, hence her palpitations, thirst, and dizziness.
Jiang Yimei's symptoms were not very good, so he dared not be negligent in the slightest. He immediately took out a thermos, unscrewed the lid, and brought the thermos to Jiang Yimei's lips.
Jiang Yimei had no desire to drink water contaminated with Lin Congzhi's saliva, so she took the thermos and explained weakly, her face pale, "I can do it myself."
