[1] The Warm Breeze is not as Warm as You

Chapter 199: Will CEO Manoban Kill Me?

Jennie smiled politely. "Thank you. One drink will be enough for me."

At this time, Mr. Song Kang's secretary also came over. The secretary was very young and obviously had a crush on the handsome, rich, and young Mr. Song Kang. Her eyes rested on Jennie's ring finger when she sat down. Looking at Jennie's clean, slender fingers, she asked with a smile, "Miss Kim, If I remember correctly, you've been married a long time, haven't you? Why didn't I see you wearing a ring when I came out with our general manager to meet you these days?"

Jennie lowered her head, forked another piece of matcha cake into her mouth, and didn't glanced at the secretary until she swallowed the cake. "I am thinner than when I got married. The ring is too big for me, so I put it at home. What, is it strange not to wear a ring after marriage?" she asked indifferently.

"Of course not, it's just that I've never seen you wear your wedding ring, nor have I ever seen you and Mr. Manoban appear at the same time. People may assume that you've divorced, or that you're trying to make it seem like you're single when you're socializing outside..." That female secretary looked into her eyes, still smiling. "Miss Kim, you know when you were married to Mr. Manoban, many girls in Seoul were heartbroken. I wonder what's wrong with you. Why do you insist on running your own business instead of just staying at home and enjoying the wealthy life your husband brings to you..."

She was trying to remind Mr. Song Kang, who stood beside her, that Jennie was a married woman and that her husband was Lisa that Mr. Song Kang couldn't afford offending.

Mr. Song Kang couldn't have been unaware, and the secretary was merely trying to remind him.

Jennie didn't speak, she wasn't interested in either of the two, so this undercurrent of thought between Mr. Song Kang and his secretary didn't mean anything to her.

"Miss Kim, I heard from your assistant last time that you seem to have been close to your business partners recently. You're so busy dealing with these bosses that you don't even have time to take our manager's invitations. And we finally got a chance to meet you again today, but you look absentminded and seem not to take BGY's cooperation agreement seriously at all as if you are it'll be yours...".

Without looking at her, Jennie just said coldly, "I think the most appropriate expression of seriousness is the attitude in the progress of cooperation, not in the negotiation of the contract. What's the point of all the smiley faces before signing a contract? We are old acquaintances, and it's not the first time we cooperate. You know how efficient our studio can be and how good the price we quote is, don't you? What kind of attitude do you expect?"

As for that, she didn't have time to accept Mr. Song Kang's invitation, that was exactly what she told Yeji to tell them. But she said Jennie was busy dealing with those bosses. Well, that was sheer nonsense.

Jennie's expression remained cold and disdainful. The secretary was about to say something else, when Mr. Song Kang said coldly, "Are you drunk? You've only had a few drinks, and you are already talking nonsense?"

The secretary froze and knew her boss was angry. She was angry to see Mr. Song Kang trying to please Jennie, so she came over to taunt Jennie to vent. However, hearing this warning, she didn't dare to say more but got up and walked away, but her eyes still glanced at them from time to time, as if she was afraid of any ambiguous relationship or further intimacy between Mr. Song Kang and Jennie.

Finally, it quieted down. Jennie remained deadpan, and Mr. Song Kang handed her a piece of cakes. "Please don't mind it."

Jennie smiled and took the cake. "It's all right. A person like you must have many admirers, and your secretary is just one of them. I've been in this situation before. I don't mind."
