After hearing Chen zuolinâs words, Joes was slightly surprised. However, this was not a big deal, so she agreed quickly.
âWhat are you saying, President Chen? weâre friends in private, so of course you can.â She said with a smile.
Zheng Zeyi narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists tightly.
His gaze was fixed on Joes, and his eyes were filled with anger. It was as if he wanted to look through the screen and use his gaze to scare Chen zuolin, who was on the other side of the phone.
The surrounding air pressure suddenly dropped, but Joes was focused on her phone and did not notice it.
After getting the answer, Chen zuolin chuckled. His laughter was extremely low and very alluring.
Joes was infected by his smile. She suddenly recalled something and said,ââBy the way, is there anything I can help you with?â
It was getting late, so Chen zuolin shouldnât be looking for her just to address her.
Unfortunately, she had guessed wrong this time. The other party had specially called because of this matter.
Little did he know that Zheng Zeyi was watching this scene coldly from the side, and the anger in his heart was also rising.
Joes did not turn on the speaker, but he was sitting not too far away. If one listened carefully, they could still hear some of the voices.
For example, now.
âSisi, are you free during this time? I want to treat you to a meal as a way of thanking you for running Star essence for so long.â Chen zuolin suddenly said.
......
It was clearly an invitation, but he said it as if it was business. He could be said to be a man of Steel.
Joes was overwhelmed by the unexpected favor and said,ââPresident Chen, please donât say that. Itâs my duty to manage star dollars. Thereâs no need to thank me.
I should be the one thanking you. How about I buy you a meal some time?â
Chen zuolin was a little startled, but these words were just what he wanted. No matter who was treating, the ultimate goal was the same.
That was, he wanted to see Jossi. Hence, he smiled faintly and said,ââOf course you can. Contact me when the time comes.
Iâm not very busy these days, so Iâm always free. You can contact me whenever you have time. â
âAlright, donât worry.â Joes vowed.
After making an appointment, the two of them didnât say much. They casually talked about company matters, greeted each other, and then hung up the phone.
Chen zuolin put down the phone and leaned back in his chair, feeling more relaxed.
If not for the companyâs matters, he would not have waited until now to contact Jossi.
On the other hand, Joes had just put down her phone.
She had just hung up the phone when she met Zheng Zeyiâs slightly angry gaze. She instantly felt the pressure on her lower.
She seemed to have ... Done something?
Joes felt a little guilty when she saw his gaze. She smiled and asked,ââW-whatâs wrong?â
Zheng Zeyi laughed coldly when he heard that. He glanced at joesse indifferently.âOur President Qiaoâs life is really rich. Heâs having a meal today and having a meal with another man tomorrow.
If I didnât hear the phone call today, Iâm afraid I would still be in the dark. â
When he finished speaking, his tone was a little sharp. It was clear that he was really angry.
Joesse secretly glanced at Zheng ze and then looked away. She felt a little regretful, but she still kept her mouth shut.
âZheng Zeyi, youâre exaggerating. President Chen and I are just ordinary colleagues and friends.
Besides, itâs just a meal. Why are you so excited? itâs not like itâs going to cost you money. â Joesse pursed her lips.
His words were as smooth as floating clouds and flowing water, without a trace of sloppiness.
As soon as she finished speaking, Qiao si shifted her gaze and did not see the flash of anger in Zheng zeâs eyes.
After hearing this, his smile became even more mocking.ââYouâre right, President Qiao. Since Iâve finished my meal, itâs time for you to leave. â
Joes subconsciously looked at the sky outside the window. It was indeed getting late. They had already spent two hours here.
However, Zheng Zeyi must have put in a lot of effort for this table of delicious food ...
At the thought of this, Joesâs heart softened again. Her slightly furrowed brows relaxed and she said softly,ââZheng Zeyi, itâs different from what you think.â
She raised her head and looked at the slightly angry Zheng Zeyi. The two of them had a silent conversation.
In the next moment, Zheng Zeyiâs beautiful brows raised as he leaned back in his chair and said calmly,ââWhat am I imagining?â
F * ck!
Joes was so angry that she almost laughed. âDonât you know what youâre thinking? The air was filled with a thick smell of jealousy.
If she had not sensed Zheng Zeyiâs affection for her, she would not have stayed and would have left immediately.
Sighing, she resigned herself to her fate and said,ââJust pretend I didnât say anything. Is our relationship as colleagues okay?â
Removing the friendship just now, only colleagues were left.
After saying that, joesse added,ââIâm not saying this for you. I really donât have any other feelings for President Chen.â
âYou donât have any other feelings for him, but that doesnât mean he doesnât have other feelings for you.â Zheng Zeyi saw through the truth at a glance.
After all, he had been in the business world for so many years, and Chen zuolin was one of the most powerful competitors.
He could still see this.
However, he didnât expect Chen zuolin to be a rival not only in business but also in love.
Zheng zeâs eyes glowed dangerously. If that fellow did anything, he would not let him off!
âI ...â
Joes choked for a moment and only replied after a long time,ââAnyway, Iâve already told you, so you can think whatever you want.â
After she finished speaking, she fell silent.
Zheng zeâs expression turned ugly. The air pressure around him was extremely low, and even joesse could feel the chill.
This man ... Was too jealous.
Joesseâs eyes flickered as she looked at Zheng Zeyi. She thought about it and decided to say something.
After all, the atmosphere was too awkward. If they just left like this, President Zheng might go berserk.
âZheng Zeyi, I really donât have any other feelings for President Chen. Itâs impossible for us to be together, so this meal is just a gathering for ordinary friends.
As for you, Iâm having a meal with him. Why are you so excited?â At the end of her sentence, Joes revealed a smile.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Zeyiâs expression eased a little. He had finally heard what he wanted to hear.
âBecause ...â
âYouâre my fiancée,â he said, curling his lips.âItâs normal for me to be possessive.â
