Chapter 274: Tell CEO? Go ahead!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“AHHHH! Wen Wen!”

Lu Huiya screamed when she saw Li Wen collapse and rushed to squat by her side, as though she were concerned.

“Pei Ge, you are too vicious! Wen Wen merely made some comments! Why did you have to hit her? I tell you; if anything happens to her, even if someone is behind you, it’s going to be useless!” Lu Huiya spoke with righteousness and treated Pei Ge like a murderer.

Pei Ge’s eyes flashed with ridicule at her exaggerated reaction. The two women were so weird. There was clearly no friends.h.i.+p between them, yet they still acted like they were close. What a joke.

“When did I hit someone? It’s clearly self-defense.” Pei Ge shot her a look and snorted.

If she had not taken action, her head or face would have been clawed by Li Wen, causing her pain for a few days.

“Don’t bother explaining! He Yan and I saw you slap Wen Wen and push her to the ground!” Lu Huiya glared daggers at her and spoke with anger.

“Don’t drag me into this, Lu Huiya. Also, I did not see Pei Ge hit her first. If Li Wen’s mouth were not so vile, she would not be slapped.” He Yan, who had been silently observing the commotion, spoke up at Lu Huiya’s words. “As for Pei Ge pus.h.i.+ng her, I saw Li Wen take the first action.”

“He Yan?!” Lu Huiya’s face turned ugly. She had never expected He Yan to speak in Pei Ge’s defense.

Her face grew uglier by the moment at He Yan’s despicable face.

“I know; you probably want to hug Pei Ge’s—”

Pei Ge quickly interrupted her.

“Hey. I say; are you really concerned for your friend who has collapsed to the ground?” She laughed lightly.

Pei Ge’s question stunned Lu Huiya first and then made her furious. “Of course, I am! I’m telling you; I will definitely report this matter to the company…”

Pei Ge lost interest in watching her ridiculous act. Looking at her mockingly, she asked, “Oh, really? Your girlfriend has been ‘unconscious’ for quite some time already, so why haven’t you called the ambulance yet?”

He Yan laughed while Lu Huiya’s expression turned dark.

Even the expression of the ‘fainted’ Li Wen seemed to stiffen.

Pei Ge, who had been closely observing Li Wen, evidently saw this slight change in expression. However, she already knew that the other was faking it, so she was not at all surprised by it.

“Pei Ge, stop pretending!” Lu Huiya demanded.

She knew that Li Wen was putting on an act and wanted to take advantage of it. Once they made the matter worse, the woman accompanying Ji Ziming to the banquet would then be her.

Who knew that her perfect plan was actually ruined by He Yan who had taken Pei Ge’s side?!

Forget it! Besides, since Li Wen, this fool, has fainted, even if He Yan stands as a ‘witness’, it won’t matter much.

With this thought in mind, Lu Huiya’s confidence in her plan grew.

“I will definitely inform CEO Ji about this matter!”

“Pui!” Pei Ge burst into laughter at Lu Huiya acting righteous.

Aiyo, why did she sound like a student about to tell on another cla.s.smate to a teacher?

“Alright, you go ahead, then.”

Lu Huiya paled with anger at her words and how unfazed she was by the entire situation.

“Before that, you should call an ambulance to help your girlfriend who has fainted. Ze, if you are not going to do so, I’ll just make a call on your behalf.” Pei Ge then picked up her phone and started calling the emergency hotline.

Lu Huiya could not stand still anymore when she saw Pei Ge’s action. Her eyes fidgeted as she thought of ways to salvage the situation.

Pei Ge was being difficult. If the ambulance arrived, then this show would end.

How could she not understand this woman, Li Wen? How could she really have fainted? Of course, she was faking it!

Hmph, it’s so stupid.

“h.e.l.lo, I have a colleague who has fainted…”

Hearing that Pei Ge had really called for an ambulance and had informed the person on the phone of the company’s address, Lu Huiya felt that time was running out.

Her eyes stared fiercely at Pei Ge. She was about to head to the CEO’s office to complain when Ji Ziming’s cold voice was heard from behind her.

“What’s going on here?” He coldly eyed the secretaries in the room. He seemed to be suppressing his anger.

His sudden appearance shocked the three, and they returned to their senses at his question.

“CEO Ji, Wen Wen is really pitiful.” Lu Huiya, who was already planning to complain to him, was the fastest to react at his voice.

Although she spoke first among the three of them, he did not even look in her direction and, instead, focused entirely on Pei Ge.

Being the recipient of his stare, Pei Ge naturally knew that his attention was on her? His gaze seemed to be filled with unhappiness and anger, though.

Seriously, what was wrong with this annoying person? Why did he use such eyes to look at me?

She lowered her head in discomfort.

Lu Huiya was completely engrossed in her acting that she did not notice the interaction between Pei Ge and Ji Ziming and continued to complain with emotion.

“… Wen Wen didn’t do anything but just made some comments on Pei Ge. Unexpectedly, she slapped her and caused her to faint.”

Hmph! She did not believe that Pei Ge would be able to attend the banquet with CEO Ji after this!

Hearing Pei Ge’s name being mentioned, his eyes darted to Lu Huiya before returning to Pei Ge.

“Pei Ge, what do you have to say?” His deep-set eyes bore into hers like a bottomless lake that one could not see the depths of.

Chapter 275: I’m happy to be your female companion.

Pei Ge pursed her lips and coldly replied while keeping her eyes on Lu Huiya. “What should I say? What if I say that I didn’t cause her to faint?”

Pei Ge had just finished her words and Ji Ziming had yet to speak when Lu Huiya cried anxiously.

“How has Wen Wen’s fainting got nothing to do with you? You dared not admit what you just did?”

Pei Ge rolled her eyes. “I’m really curious; am I that strong, or is Li Wen paper thin? I had yet to touch her, but she actually fell and fainted?”

Lu Huiya saw her arrogance and was delighted. “CEO Ji, look at her att.i.tude! I really can’t be her colleague. She is too arrogant.”

Ji Ziming’s response was rather unexpected, though.

“Since that’s the case, you may resign,” he said coldly as he looked indifferently at her.

“…” Everyone was stunned by his response.

Pei Ge was stunned, too. She did expect him to react in such a way.

Even the ‘unconscious’ Li Wen shuddered from shock and grew nervous.

Everyone’s eyes were on the man and not at her, though.

“CEO J – Ji?” Lu Huiya stammered. He was clearly siding with Pei Ge.

He did not look at Lu Huiya and, instead, eyed Li Wen’s p.r.o.ne figure.

Since he did not speak, an icy-cold atmosphere filled the surroundings, and everyone else did not dare to speak, either.

The frosty aura he was emitting made the room suffocating.

Anyone standing near him felt this way.

Li Wen, who continued to lie on the ground under his cold gaze, was panicking inside. She currently felt that she was in h.e.l.l.

His penetrating gaze made Li Wen tremble.

“Get up,” he ordered coldly.

Even if Li Wen wanted to continue her act, she knew that she could not, so she took her time with opening her eyes, instead. Her initially watery eyes were now filled with fear.

Pei Ge was shocked.

She was not shocked that Li Wen had not fainted but that…

Ji Ziming actually knows she’s faking it with one look?! His eyes are too sharp!

Usually, men would fall for such tricks and stand by the victims’ side in such situations.

Ze, ze, ze! Indeed, this annoying person is annoying! He has no feelings of pity, so how can he be deceived?!

Pei Ge’s mood brightened in that moment.

“CEO J – Ji, I – I…” Li Wen was so frightened by the man’s stare that she forgot to lie and kept her gaze on her shoes.

“You’re fired.” He coldly glanced at her and announced.

Fired?!

Everyone widened their eyes in shock and failed to react in time at the fact that he would fire an employee just like this.

“CEO J – Ji, please don’t fire me. I will do a better job. Don’t fire me.” Li Wen, who was the person in question, was the fastest to react. She lifted her eyes that were br.i.m.m.i.n.g with tears and pleaded desperately.

It was just a pity that Ji Ziming did not respond and merely turned away coldly.

“Pei Ge, come in for a while,” he ordered just as he was about to step into the CEO’s office.

At his command, she promptly brushed away her complicated feelings at the sobbing Li Wen and followed him in. “Ah, yes!”

“Wen Wen, don’t cry; don’t cry. Leaving is good, too; you no longer need to be bullied by that woman.”

“It’s easy for you to say! Why didn’t you resign when CEO Ji ask you to, then?!”

“Don’t be like this; I’m trying to comfort you…”

Hearing the whisperings behind her, Pei Ge lowered her gaze and kept her composure as she followed the man into his office.

Pak! Once the thick wooden door was closed, she began to feel nervous.

Why did this annoying person call her into his office? Could it be for the matter earlier?

Ji Ziming sat back in his black leather chair, looked at Pei Ge, who was hanging her head low ever since entering the room, and asked coldly, “Why? Feeling guilty now?”

“What guilty?” She lifted her head and looked curiously at him. “Don’t tell me you think I really bullied Li Wen?” She pursed her lips. For some reason, she did not like that he misunderstood her, so she explained herself.

“I didn’t bully her. I slapped her because she said some rude things to me. As for me pus.h.i.+ng her, she’s the one who grabbed me first, so I’m not in the wrong.”

His lips curled at the way her small and tender mouth sputtered so many things with her round eyes looking at him earnestly.

“I’m not referring to that matter,” he cut in indifferently.

“Ah, you are not? What are you referring to, then?” She had no clue on what he was talking about now.

Nonetheless, she was happy at his unconditional trust in her.

“You are unwilling to be my female companion?” He leaned into the chair, his pair of black eyes staring intently at her.

She blinked confusedly. “Ah?”

“Why don’t you want to be my female companion?” He straightened his posture and looked at her like a beast eyeing its prey.

“…” d.a.m.n. After this whole commotion, this annoying person is concerned over such a trivial thing?!

One did not need to use brain to know that it was Li Wen who had said bad things about her.

“Speak,” he coldly commanded when he saw her zone out in front of him.

“Actually…” Pei Ge raised her head and looked at him without blinking. “I’m happy to be your female companion.”
