Chapter 697: What Did This Jerk Mean by This?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Yan Zhengchen didn’t say anything. He just looked meaningfully at Gong Lu.
Actually, he really wanted to ask Gong Lu why he opposed marriage.
But he couldn’t bring himself to ask.
“By the way, Jiaojiao, my mother is at White City too.” Gong Lu suddenly said, “If she comes to find you, don’t take her words to heart no matter what she says.”
Chi Jiao said, “Don’t worry, Brother Lu. I know how to handle her.”
After that, they chatted for a while before leaving.
After leaving Yan Zhengchen’s place, Chi Jiao took a taxi to Beitang Lie’s place.
Jiang Shen arrived in White City yesterday and went to Beitang Lie’s office early this morning to meet Chi Jiao. He was already waiting for her.
“Uncle, is Chi Jiao coming or not?” Jiang Xiaoli asked him impatiently. “We have waited so long. It’s already eight now. Does she have any sense of time? Does she know that it’s very rude to keep people waiting?!”
Sitting behind his desk playing a computer game, Beitang Lie overheard Jiang Xiaoli’s complaints. He stuck his head out from behind the computer and looked at her. “If you don’t want to wait, you can leave first.”
Jiang Xiaoli was mercilessly reb.u.t.ted by him. She felt that he was being unreasonable.
“Division Head Beitang, what did I do to make you unhappy?” Jiang Xiaoli frowned at him.
She didn’t remember how she had offended this p.r.i.c.k.
“You didn’t make me unhappy. I just don’t like you.” Even with Jiang Shen present, Beitang Lie still did not give Jiang Xiaoli any respect.
“Uncle, look at Division Head Beitang. He’s too much!” Jiang Xiaoli had no choice but to turn to Jiang Shen.
Actually, Jiang Shen had no way of dealing with Beitang Lie.
Beitang Lie didn’t commit any mistake or violate any rules.
He just didn’t like Jiang Xiaoli. This was his personal choice.
“Xiaoli, stop talking. Be quiet for a while,” Jiang Shen said in a low voice.
Jiang Xiaoli closed her mouth resentfully.

It was already 11:00 AM when Chi Jiao arrived at Beitang Lie’s place.
“Jiaojiao, you’re finally here.” Beitang Lie smiled when he saw Chi Jiao.
Jiang Xiaoli saw the cold-faced Beitang Lie smile when he saw Chi Jiao and couldn’t help feeling jealous.
What did this jerk mean by this? He insulted her for no reason but treated Chi Jiao so nicely.
In what way was she inferior to Chi Jiao?!
Jiang Shen stood up from the sofa and pulled Jiang Xiaoli along.
Jiang Xiaoli stood up reluctantly and greeted Chi Jiao with him.
Chi Jiao’s gaze landed on the two of them, and she smiled faintly. “Team Leader Jiang, I specially called you here to discuss work with you. Why did you bring Jiang Xiaoli along?”
Jiang Xiaoli frowned unhappily when she heard that.
She had yet to become an official manager, but she already knew how to put on airs. If she officially became a manager in the future, wouldn’t she be even more insufferable?
She was indeed a country b.u.mpkin who hadn’t seen the world. It must not be easy for her to find an opportunity to flaunt her status. She had to show off now!
With this thought in mind, Jiang Xiaoli’s eyes were filled with disdain.
