Ye Shengge nodded and said, âI still hope you wonât wait for me.â
âI didnât say I was waiting for you.â The man raised his eyebrows. âAre you being delusional?â
Ye Shengge was rendered speechless.
If it werenât for that... Why did that man look so happy? She hadnât seen that smile on his face in a long time.
Ye Shenggeâs heart ached, but she had to break his hope.
âIâm serious.â Ye Shenggeâs tone became firm. âDonât think too simply about the treatment. If I canât completely fuse with her, all the stimulation will be wasted. The second personalityâs personality is still very unstable... This is the risk Song Ruxu told me about.â
Ji Shiting looked at her and stopped smiling.
âI understand.â He shot her a glance. âYou donât have to worry that Iâll continue to pester you.â
Ye Shengge bit her lips and didnât say anything.
âYou can leave now.â Ji Shiting thought for a bit and smiled. âIf I meet a woman that makes me interested, Iâll definitely give myself a chance. You donât have to worry about me being tied down by you.â
The man sounded calm and confident, but Ye Shengge was still skeptical.
However, she could only nod and say, âOkay, then... Goodbye.â
She then stood up and walked out of the office.
Ji Shiting stood up and walked to her door.
Before Ye Shengge walked out, she couldnât help looking back at him. The manâs eyes were dark, and he still looked calm. He wasnât as happy and surprised as he had been during dinner, but... he didnât seem sad or reluctant.
âBe careful on the way,â he said.
She was polite and distant.
Ye Shengge couldnât figure out his attitude at all. Her heart was in a mess, so she could only look down and walk to the elevator.
Ji Shiting watched her leave and curled his lips.
...
Shang Tianyi and Lin Qi were still waiting for her downstairs. Ye Shengge was already a household name now, so they couldnât let her in alone.
She was still in a daze when she got in. She didnât know what Ji Shiting was thinking, but she felt that he wouldnât give up so easily. However, the man had already said everything.
I hope... he really gives up, she thought bitterly.
She looked up and saw Shang Tianyi and Lin Qi staring at her.
âI was too tired. I slept at his place, and nothing happened. Nothing changed. He promised that T.S. Corporationâs film project would be prioritized by the studio.â Ye Shengge knew what they were asking, so she said it out loud.
âDoes that mean Mr. Ji agreed to your request but didnât touch you?â Shang Tianyi raised his eyebrows in disbelief. âIs there such a good thing?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âDo you think Iâm going to sell myself?â Ye Shengge gritted her teeth.
âWhy else would he ask you to talk face to face?â Shang Tianyi clicked his tongue. âForget it. Itâs good that he agreed. I donât have to be mad at Mu Yanhuai anymore!â
âSister Shengge, havenât you gotten back together with Mr. Ji?â Lin Qi refused to give up.
âNo,â Ye Shengge said. âWe wonât meet again in the future.â
She would just run again, she thought.
