57: Chapter 57: Rejecting the Offered Face
Jet-black hair draped beautifully over her shoulders, Ling Weiwei, dressed in a soy-sauce-colored business suit and black shiny high heels, stood serenely in front of a large, clean floor-to-ceiling window.
Ling Weiwei did not speak, and Lin Fei was happy to stand behind her, appreciating this beautiful scene.
Naturally, most of his gaze fell on her round and perky buttocks.
Just as Lin Fei was thinking about whether he should take advantage of Ling Weiwei’s focus on the window outside to feel her up twice, the woman suddenly turned around, her beautiful eyes filled with sharpness.
Generally speaking, won are quite sensitive to n’s gazes on their bodies, especially Ling Weiwei, who was already sowhat familiar with Lin Fei’s nature and knew his eyes were definitely not honest.
Seeing the sharp look in the woman’s eyes, Lin Fei slightly reined in his mischievous gaze, quietly waiting for Ling Weiwei to speak.
Unfortunately, Ling Weiwei just quietly stared at him, and Lin Fei waited a long ti without hearing her say a word.
Just when Lin Fei was wondering if Ling Weiwei was lost in his handso appearance, unable to extricate herself,
Ling Weiwei slightly raised her eyebrows, “Aren’t you going to say sothing to ?”
Damn, what was happening here?
She had called him in here.
Lin Fei was a bit dumbfounded, realizing he had been waiting for her to start the conversation.
Considering Ling Weiwei’s stance, she seed quite intent on confronting him.
Lin Fei was sowhat puzzled and quickly thought through why Ling Weiwei had called him in.
“I went out without asking for your leave, Ms.
Ling, and that was indeed my fault.
I promise it won’t happen again.”
He thought but couldn’t figure out how he had offended Ling Weiwei.
However, when Lin Fei recalled what Shen Xuan had warned him, he realized that Ling Weiwei probably wanted him to account for what he had been doing that day.
Still, Lin Fei really couldn’t explain to Ling Weiwei about his escapade—surely he couldn’t tell her he went spying on the beautiful chairman of Thorny Rose taking a bath.
Even if he explained, Ling Weiwei would never believe it; thus, Lin Fei simply admitted his error.
“That’s not what I want to hear.”
Lin Fei thought he had lowered his attitude and had admitted his fault, giving his beautiful boss face, and she was most likely about to wave him out of the office.
After all, he had once saved her, not that he expected the beautiful director to reciprocate with her body.
These kinds of things happening during work hours were just laughable, right?
Unfortunately, Ling Weiwei lightly lifted her hand and shook her head, indicating that wasn’t what she wanted to hear.
This baffled Lin Fei even more; besides that, he could not think of any reason why Ling Weiwei had called him in.
After pondering for a few seconds, Lin Fei tried saying, “You look very beautiful today.”
“I know that.” Won generally love when soone complints their beauty, and Ling Weiwei showed no modesty here.
Unfortunately, after acknowledging Lin Fei’s flattery, Ling Weiwei shook her head again.
“That’s not what I want to hear either.”
Damn it, what do you want to hear, Lin Fei really wanted to point at Ling Weiwei’s pretty nose and curse.
He thought when she called him in, there would be sothing good.
But instead, she seed to be waiting for him to confess his guilt.
Admitting a mistake voluntarily wasn’t enough, complinting her beauty also wasn’t enough, she was too hard to please, Lin Fei might as well not bother.
“Ms.
Ling, we all have precious ti, don’t beat around the bush.
Just say what you want to say, if you don’t, I’m leaving.”
Lin Fei was genuinely getting impatient, Shen Peini was waiting for his response.
Ling Weiwei’s eyelashes curled slightly as she blinked and turned her head to the side, “I’ve discussed with Sister Shen, and she has decided to stand with us.”
“Which Sister Shen?”
“Shen Peini, Manager Shen.”
“That’s good news.
But, why are you telling
this?”
Although Lin Fei didn’t understand how Ling Weiwei suddenly started calling Shen Peini “Sister Shen,” he didn’t intend to delve deeper.
Won’s friendships are indeed mysterious, and this morning when Lin Fei saw Shen Peini and Ling Weiwei entering the General Affairs Departnt together, he had already sensed sothing.
With Han Qiming dead, Han Zhenhai would definitely not let things slide.
It’s indeed good news that Shen Peini is willing to stand with Mu Shanshan.
However, Lin Fei didn’t think this had anything to do with him.
He was nominally assigned by Mu Hong to assist Mu Shanshan, but in reality, he was just idling around in the company.
He had no interest in business operations, and Shen Peini switching sides would definitely involve so kind of beneficial exchange; it’s better Mu Shanshan deal with the headache, as Lin Fei didn’t plan to trouble himself.
“She’s willing to stand with , and I have you to thank for it.
I’ve already reported it to Mr.
Mu, and he’s agreed to revoke the decision to dock your salary for a year.”
As Ling Weiwei spoke, her captivating eyes were fixed on Lin Fei, but once she finished, she quickly turned her head away, as if deliberately avoiding sothing.
“Uh—that’s what I should do.”
Lin Fei was quite helpless; he never imagined that Ling Weiwei called him here for this matter, which, practically speaking, was a good thing since a woman was singing his praises in front of the boss.
Coming across such a boss who actively recognized the efforts of her subordinates should have been a blessing for Lin Fei.
However, it depended on who the boss was.
The gorgeous departnt head seeking recognition for her subordinate from her own wife, especially since it involved another attractive female supervisor, was not a scenario Lin Fei considered beneficial.
Right now, Lin Fei wondered what Mu Shanshan was thinking about him.
“Ling, you should know, I’ve always preferred to keep a low profile, so there’s no need to ntion
in the future.”
Occurrences like these might be ignored once or twice by Mu Shanshan, but with frequent repetition, Mu Shanshan would certainly catch on to sothing.
In the end, it would be Lin Fei who would suffer.
“Mm, I get it,” Ling Weiwei said, eyeing Lin Fei suspiciously, though she couldn’t figure out why he had suddenly changed his tune.
But, evidently, Ling Weiwei’s mind was not on this matter at the mont.
“Is there anything else you want to say?”
“There’s nothing else.
If there’s nothing further, I’ll take my leave.”
Preoccupied with figuring out how to convince Shen Peini, that beauty, to book a hotel room, Lin Fei had no interest in entertaining Ling Weiwei’s subtleties and turned to leave her office.
“Wait a second.”
“Co on, Ling Weiwei, enough already.
Speak up or get it over with; I don’t have the ti to beat around the bush with you.”
Lin Fei could tell that Ling Weiwei was definitely holding sothing back.
Unfortunately, Lin Fei truly had no patience for beating around the bush with won.
Particularly now, on the verge of ending the work day, and he still hadn’t replied to Shen Peini’s ssage.
If she left the office before him, Lin Fei would waste even more ti looking for her.
It would be far more convenient if they left the office together and headed straight to the hotel.
Seeing Lin Fei’s distinctly impatient deanor, Ling Weiwei felt a spark of anger but then rembered this man had once recklessly burst into Imperial Lux nightclub and even committed a murder for her sake.
Ling Weiwei’s heart involuntarily softened, “We had a wager before.
If you could improve the relationship between
and Sister Shen, I would give you a chance to pursue .”
Why bring this up now?
Lin Fei looked at her, perplexed.
He certainly did not believe soone like Ling Weiwei would suddenly propose sothing as rash as offering herself on a whim.
“I wouldn’t worry about that, Chief Ling.
It was just a spur of the mont thing for .
Honestly, I didn’t put much effort into it.
Let’s pretend it never happened.”
Thinking it over, Lin Fei suspected Ling Weiwei was preparing to break their agreent.
Indeed, Lin Fei hadn’t taken their wager very seriously either.
But perhaps more importantly, Shen Peini, that beauty, had already subtly invited him, and Lin Fei wanted to disentangle himself from Ling Weiwei, graciously letting the matter slide this ti.
“No way, you have to honor the bet!” Lin Fei thought, even if the beautiful departnt head didn’t thank him, she should at least breathe a sigh of relief.
Yet, Ling Weiwei appeared reluctant and actively slid her arm through Lin Fei’s, “I happen to be free tonight.”
Gazing at Ling Weiwei’s delicately flushed face, Lin Fei was instantly bewildered.
As a veteran of the ga, Lin Fei couldn’t miss the implication in Ling Weiwei’s words.
This woman was clearly telling Lin Fei, “I’m free tonight, ask
out.” Lin Fei wasn’t the only one who could interpret Ling Weiwei’s suggestion—any inexperienced young man straight out of school probably would have understood it too.
This wasn’t just direct; it was an understated invitation compared to Shen Peini’s forwardness.
The beautiful departnt head indirectly asking for a date, Lin Fei would have agreed so other ti.
Given Ling Weiwei’s appearance and charm, just a slight hint at a date would have n flocking to her.
“Chief Ling, I’m sorry, but I have plans to drink with so friends tonight.” Feeling Ling Weiwei’s expression chilling, Lin Fei hurriedly added, “Tomorrow, I’m definitely free tomorrow.
As long as Chief Ling graces
with her presence, I’ll make sure you’re comfortable.”
One could guess what Lin Fei ant by making her comfortable – in bed.
Click, click, click, the woman walked back to the panoramic window as the office atmosphere suddenly tensed.
Standing before the window, a cold frost spread across Ling Weiwei’s beautiful face, internally cursing Lin Fei furiously.
Here she was, Ling Weiwei, the esteed General Affairs Director of Mu Group, Lin Fei’s superior.
Humbling herself to invite him, she had expected Lin Fei to accept gratefully.
In Ling Weiwei’s eyes now, Lin Fei had only one defining trait left: utterly insolent!
Ling Weiwei wanted to grab Lin Fei by the ear and interrogate him sharply; could her allure really not surpass a few bottles of alcohol?
She had seen the ungrateful, but never soone this oblivious.
She had seen the foolish, but never this level of stupidity.
Still drinking, may you drink yourself to death!
And tomorrow?
Keep dreaming; in this lifeti, you’ll never get another chance to date this director!
