C56 (2/2)
Since he couldn't discuss personal matters with the company, he decided to just go out and negotiate. Regardless, Jiang Xiushan had promised him before, that once this competition came to an end, the two of them would officially get divorced.
”I have to work overtime tonight.”
An Ning's confident smile froze on her face. She forced a smile onto her face again. ”How about tomorrow?”
”I have to go on a business trip to F Nation tomorrow. I don't have time.”
An Ning was so angry that she almost vomited blood. However, she had no choice but to compromise. She knew that as an unknown employee of the company, how could she possibly point at the CEO's nose and scold her 'try again if you're lying to me'?
”Alright then, I will ask you out when you return.”
Jiang Jia nodded his head with satisfaction. An Ning must be cursing herself in her heart right now. Seeing her smiling face, how could she feel so good about it?
An Ning was flustered and exasperated as she returned to her seat. Even her colleagues in the office couldn't help but shrink back when they called her a thunderbolt. They couldn't help but think to themselves, who has provoked who this time.
However, they knew that An Ning could not afford to offend them. There were rumors of her in the company saying that the CEO would always do something. Although it was never clear as to why she did so, it was obvious why she did so.
Everyone couldn't help but feel envious of An Ning. How could she have such a good life? Jiang Jia really cared deeply about her.
An Ning had spent the entire afternoon at her post, and her temper could be described as raging like thunder. She always had a good temper, and had never been so excited to the point where she could jump up and down just because of someone.
Jiang Jianxin had challenged her time and time again, challenging her principles. She was patient, and she felt like she was going crazy.
Xu Wang was a qualified Flower Protector. Every day, he would bring An Ning to and from work on time. Although An Ning had said many times that Xu Wang didn't have to pick her up specifically, every time Xu Wang left work during peak hours, he just happened to pass by.
Seeing that her persuasion was ineffective, An Ning didn't say anything more and silently allowed Xu Wang to pick her up from work.
Usually, Xu Wang would arrive early at An Ning's company, and today was no exception. Xu Wang went straight to An Ning's office to wait. As he was packing up his things, An Ning saw Xu Wang happily walking up to her.
”Why are you so early today?”
Xu Wen looked at An Ning and smiled. Other than An Ning herself, who didn't notice it, everyone could see the affection in Xu Wang's eyes.
”There's a case ended today, so I might as well leave early.”
An Ning lamented, ”It's good to be the boss yourself.” How good it is to be a good capitalist.
”Are you hungry? I just came over and bought you a milkshake. ” An Ning's eyes lit up. She hadn't eaten anything since the incident at noon caused by Jiang Liu. Right now, her stomach was rumbling with hunger.
Xu Wang put the straw back in place. Since it was inconvenient for An Ning to organize her things, Xu Wang directly brought the straw to An Ning's mouth.
Since the two of them were old acquaintances, An Ning didn't pay much attention to such small details. She took a deep breath without a care in the world.
Xu saw how hungry she was and really wanted to laugh. He smiled as he said, ”Slow down, it's not like there's anyone who wants to snatch it from you.” An Ning stuck out her tongue, packed her things and followed Xu Wang downstairs.
Jiang Jianxin was furious to see the video on the monitor in his office. How could this woman be so shameless as to confide in other men in front of him?
