Chapter 317 - Mr. Ji actually likes that type of woman?

“Did you guys assume that Mr. Ji had only given out a gold card?”

The moment Xiaowen asked this question, the rest of the staff became more excited.

“What, what? What else happened?”

“That’s right; that’s right! What else did Mr. Ji do?”

“There’s really nothing worth saying if all he did is arranged for a gold card,” she remarked. Her eyes had turned into slits from smiling.

“Hurry up and say it, then!”

“Yes, Xiaowen, stop keeping us in suspense!”

“Alright, alright. I won’t leave you guys hanging anymore.” She generously gave in. “You guys naturally don’t know this; although Mr. Ji looks cold and aloof, when he really puts effort into wooing a woman, I think any woman’s heart will be captured by him.

“I truly thought that that was it when the lady left with a gold card in hand, but Mr. Ji unexpectedly stayed behind to tell me...”

“What? What did he say to you?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“He stayed behind to tell me to put a note under that lady’s account; if she comes here next time, no matter how expensive the dishes she orders are, the total should not exceed four digits, and we should tell her that this price is achieved through the 50% discount. Of course, he will pay for everything she spends here.”

The room fell silent upon her narration.

After a pregnant pause, another waitress softly muttered, “If only I were that woman...”

“Yes... I am really jealous of her now.”

“Who’d ever think that Mr. Ji is such a romantic person?”

Xiaowen nodded and smiled. “That’s right. I also didn’t expect him to be such a man.”

“Handsome and rich as well as gentle and doting... I am really envious of her! I want a boyfriend like that, too!”

Xiaowen also nodded her head enviously at this.

“Xiaowen, is that woman really beautiful?”

Someone suddenly posed this question. Almost immediately, everyone else eagerly bobbed their heads as they waited for her reply.

“She must be really beautiful for her to captivate CEO Ji to this extent, right?”

“Yes. Do you think I can fish for a rich husband if I have plastic surgery now?”

Hearing her colleagues’ wild guesses, Xiaowen boisterously laughed.

“Xiaowen, what are you laughing at?”

The others were slightly dumbfounded when she started laughing and looked at her in total bafflement.

“I am laughing at your wrong guesses! She is actually not only average-looking but also slightly plump.”

“What?!” Everyone was so shocked they looked at her as if she had grown another head.

“You must be lying! Are you honestly telling us that Mr. Ji, who is such a high-class man, likes a plump woman with average looks?”

“Xiaowen, you must really be kidding.”

“It’s the truth. That lady is not actually ugly, but when she’s paired with Mr. Ji, she is just lacking,” she explained, feeling exasperated.

If she had not seen it with her eyes, she herself would not have believed that the high, mighty, and handsome Mr. Ji would take fancy to such a woman.

“Ahhh! If that is true, then there’s no more justice in this world!”

“What should I do? I am now feeling more envious of that woman!”

“I, too!”

As this group of women was enviously sighing over Pei Ge’s luck in love, the main character of this incident was entirely oblivious to this matter.

“Achoo!” Pei Ge, who was currently sitting in the passenger seat of Ji Ziming’s car, suddenly sneezed.

Her act of sneezing made him do an emergency brake.

Screech!

The sudden braking caused her body to uncontrollably be propelled forward.

“What’s wrong?” She grabbed some tissue from her handbag, wiped her nose with them, and then turned to perplexedly look at him.

“Are you alright?” He frowned with worry.

“Huh? What can be wrong with me?” She blinked her eyes and laughed.

“Did my sneezing just then frighten you?” She did not notice the worry in his eyes and merely thought that her sudden sneezing had given the man a scare.

“Relax; I don’t have a flu. It also isn’t anything contagious. It is just a sneeze and won’t make you fall sick.”

The furrow between his brows grew deeper at her cheeky grin.

“We should visit the hospital just to be sure.” He strongly suspected that she had fallen sick from playing too long at the bar yesterday.

“I’m really fine. My nose was just a little itchy, so I sneezed,” she refused, feeling slightly exasperated. If it were not for him being her boss, she would really roll her eyes at him.

It’s just a mere sneeze. Does he have to overreact? He is being a worrywart.

After a long discussion, she finally dissuaded him from sending her to the hospital.

She, who had wasted so much breath to achieve this feat, felt her body lose all its strength.

Nonetheless, it was due to this long exchange with him that she realized that the man was simply worried about her.

Once she found this out, she felt that he was more pleasing to the eye.

As he drove toward Chenguang Real Estate, she began having the urge to chat a little.

“Oh, right. CEO Ji, I’ve been wondering about this; how did you end up appearing in the suite Xiaoyu and I were in?” While on the brink of losing her consciousness last night, she was incessantly thinking of why he had appeared in their room.

The moment this question left her lips, the car, which had been traveling smoothly, suddenly swerved to the side a little, as though its tires had gone wonky.

“Er? Is this a hard-to-answer question?” Noticing his tightly pursed lips, she asked in a slightly disappointed voice.

“...” He refused to look at her and just continued to look straight ahead, as if his entire focus were on driving.

What she did not know was that the heart of the great CEO Ji, who had a cold expression, was currently pounding furiously.

His heart was pounding from guilt and nervousness.

Still, even then, he managed to maintain his outwardly calm expression, as if he had not heard her question at all.

Seeing him revert into being a stony-faced person, she speechlessly pursed her lips and stopped trying to chat him up. She then devoted her attention to the scenery outside the window.

Although he knows to show concern for others, this annoying fellow is still as annoying as ever!

Ji Ziming secretly peeked at Pei Ge, who had turned her head away, and his eyes dimmed slightly.

How can I possibly tell you such an embarrassing thing?!

That damn Mu Heng! Indeed, I shouldn’t have let him off that easily yesterday!

Mu Heng, who was currently lying comfortably in a huge bed, suddenly violently sneezed.

“Achoo! Hm? Who is thinking of me?”
