She actually felt she was jealous?
Zhan Jingchen’s first reaction was denial.
“Jealous? How ridiculous, what’s there to be jealous about with you?”
Hearing him say that, Pei Kexin was relieved.
“Very good, it’s good that there isn’t. It’s impossible between us, everything before was a misunderstanding, it’s all in the past. Now we are just employer and employee, I’m happiest that you can think this way.”
What did that mean?
She wanted to draw a clear line between them from now on, and would absolutely not let anything happen again?
She looked down on him?!
Zhan Jingchen was furious, driving the car extremely fast, as if he wanted to vent all his anger on the accelerator.
They soon arrived downstairs at Fu Duoduo’s home. He had expected Pei Kexin to say something more to him.
Who would have thought that this heartless woman would grab her bag and leave without looking back.
Left…
After all, it was Zhan Jingchen’s first venture, and he lacked work experience. Acquiring the Pei Corporation was no small matter. Zhan Beijue, being idle recently, decided to personally handle the negotiations for him.
The conditions offered by the Zhan Corporation were very generous. The Pei family members were self-aware. Knowing that the patriarch was gone, the Pei Corporation could no longer develop further. They decided to take a sum of money, divide it among themselves, and go their separate ways, which was also a good outcome.
Therefore, the acquisition was settled that very day.
Two days later, Zhan Jingchen took office as the Executive Vice President of the Pei Corporation.
Zhan Beijue also transferred an experienced manager from the Zhan Corporation to assist him. Pei Kexin was appointed Executive President, and they both took office together.
Upon hearing that the Pei Corporation had been temporarily acquired, the employees of the Pei Corporation were quite excited.
After all, with the Zhan Corporation’s name attached, they were now part of the Zhan Corporation, which was prestigious.
Moreover, they were managed by the youngest and most handsome young master of the Zhan Corporation.
Although he was only to be admired from afar and not to be touched, it was still good to see such a leader every day.
For a time, the company atmosphere was high, and everyone was cheerful.
The first thing they did upon entering the company was to organize a meeting for the senior management. Pei Kexin was very busy all morning.
Zhan Jingchen understood nothing, so she had to discuss everything with the manager.
The two of them were together all day, discussing everything from meeting content to one-on-one meetings with senior executives, to future work plans and arrangements, with endless topics to talk about.
Zhan Jingchen followed them, but Pei Kexin didn’t say a word to him.
Seeing her sitting with the manager, as if they were confidantes, understanding each other, and talking volubly, the anger that had not dissipated from the previous two days gradually resurfaced.
You good-for-nothing Pei Kexin, can you talk to any man except me?
He also deliberately interjected, but what he said was unprofessional, and the manager had to explain things to him instead.
Pei Kexin found him childish. For Zhan Beijue’s sake, she didn’t argue with him, focusing on her own duties and not engaging with him.
Until the end of work, Zhan Jingchen still hadn’t managed to say a word to her.
The manager left on time. Pei Kexin tidied up in the office for a while longer, planning to leave during the off-peak hours.
Unexpectedly, after finishing her work, she looked up and saw a pest still sitting there.
Zhan Jingchen hadn’t left.
Pei Kexin’s anger from the previous two days had not subsided either.
After all, they had been husband and wife for a time, and he didn’t trust her so much, accusing her of flirting with others and deliberately showing herself off.
What a vulgar man, she never wanted to deal with him again.
Pretending not to see him, she picked up her bag and was about to leave.
Zhan Jingchen felt a shadow move opposite him, raised his head, and after waiting so hard, this woman was just leaving like that?
Unable to bear it any longer, he stood up and quickly followed her, blocking her path.
Pei Kexin almost bumped into his chest. She stopped and looked at him with an displeased expression.
“Do you need something?”
Zhan Jingchen gritted his teeth, “Can’t you see me? Why haven’t you spoken to me all day?”
Pei Kexin hadn’t expected that the reason he was still here was to ask her this question?
Why hadn’t she spoken to him?
“Mr. Zhan, I was very busy all day, didn’t you see? What did you want me to say?”
What attitude!
Looking at her indifferent gaze, Zhan Jingchen really wanted to pinch her face hard.
“What do I want to hear? Would you say whatever I want to hear?”
Heh, listening to this, he was looking for trouble.
Pei Kexin took a step back, crossed her arms, and sneered at him.
“You are the boss, I am just an employee. Of course, I have to say whatever you want to hear.”
You dead woman, you really know how to make people angry!
Zhan Jingchen was not to be outdone.
“Alright then, let me ask you, what did you do during the two days I was negotiating the acquisition? Did you go out to play with that Frenchman?”
“…”
“Foreigners are very promiscuous, especially the French, they are particularly good at playing. Someone like him, who expresses his affection for women at first sight, is definitely not a good person. If you are with him, aren’t you afraid of getting infected?”
“…” Pei Kexin was truly exasperated with him.
So, after all this, he was just here to insult her?
“What does it have to do with you? Whether I get infected or not is my business. It’s quite a bother for you to worry about me, isn’t it?”
Zhan Jingchen snorted coldly, “It is quite a bother, spending money to hire you to do business and then having to worry about myself getting infected too.”
“You! Zhan Jingchen, watch your mouth. Don’t say I didn’t do those things, but even if I did get infected, what does it have to do with you? Even worse, stay away from me, and conveniently, I don’t want to see you either!”
She didn’t go out with the Frenchman?
Zhan Jingchen finally felt a little better.
“That’s not necessarily true, what if the air can transmit it too.”
Deliberately provoking her!
Pei Kexin couldn’t help but push him, “Move aside, you can’t say anything good.”
Actually, she regretted it as soon as she said it.
After all, he was the boss now, and she still owed him two hundred million. If she called him a dog, this guy would definitely not let it go.
She was prepared for Zhan Jingchen to get angry, but she didn’t expect him to freeze for two seconds and then start laughing slyly.
“I have a dog’s mouth. You still kissed a dog’s mouth?”
“What?”
“Don’t play dumb with me, don’t you remember? You’ve kissed this dog’s mouth more than once.”
“…”
Pei Kexin looked at his young and handsome face, speechless for a few seconds.
“Truly shameless.”
“What? Don’t want to admit it? Or have you lost your memory? President Pei is a distinguished person and forgets easily, but I haven’t forgotten. Do you want me to help you recall?”
As the two were talking, several assistants walked by outside the office.
Even though it was through the glass, Pei Kexin was afraid he would say something shocking again, so she quickly went to cover his mouth.
“Are you crazy? What do you mean by ‘help me recall’? Zhan Jingchen, did you actually record a video? You didn’t delete it that time?”
Seeing that she was scared and had taken the initiative to approach him, Zhan Jingchen couldn’t be happier.
He had finally found her weakness, and now he wasn’t afraid of her ignoring him anymore.
“That’s right, I didn’t delete it, and I don’t plan to. If you dare to disobey me, I’ll bring it out anytime and anywhere to embarrass you.”
“You!”
“What about me? You dare to do it but not admit it. If I had known you were such an irresponsible person, I wouldn’t have given myself to you no matter what.”
