Jiaojiao, You Don't Want To... [Yandere Reverse Harem Novel]

Chapter 28 (2/2)

He said so, but the secretary guarding the president's office had already opened the door and nodded to them, "Come in."

Wen Zhijiao: "..."

Bad, a very bad feeling.

The president's office was very large, with all kinds of leisure and entertainment facilities, including the standard floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the river and surrounding buildings. The desk was against the bookshelf, next to the bookshelf was a reception area, but at the corner of the reception area, there was a small office made of glass.

The bad feeling came true.

Wen Zhijiao looked at the secretary, then at Jiang Linchen, "That's not my workstation, is it?"

Jiang Linchen smiled, "Because you're an intern assistant, it's convenient to be on call. But don't worry, the first day is mainly about getting familiar with the environment. The secretary will tell you what to do later."

The secretary nodded, "Miss Wen, don't worry, there's an internal line contact list under the desk phone, you can call anytime, the secretary's office will teach you."

Wen Zhijiao was about to say something, but Jiang Linchen raised his hand, his face showing a hint of guilt, "Get familiar with it first, I have to go to a meeting, sorry."

After saying that, he left the office with the secretary. Wen Zhijiao stood there helplessly, and finally could only pick up her bag and walk towards the glass office. She sat for ten minutes, and suddenly realized that they didn't say what she was supposed to do.

Would they call and tell her?

Wen Zhijiao sat up straight, staring at the desk phone.

But for a long time, nothing happened.

It wasn't until almost noon that Jiang Linchen returned to the office and took her to the restaurant for lunch. Then, as soon as lunch was over, he went to another meeting. He would occasionally return to the office for a few minutes and then leave for another meeting, the office door opening and closing constantly.

I can't take it anymore, why don’t you just stay in the meeting room, don’t come back! Besides, he's so busy, does he really have time to bully me? Should I test him?

Wen Zhijiao changed the outfit of her character in the mini-game interface, lost in thought.

It wasn't until four in the afternoon that Jiang Linchen returned again.

He sat on the sofa, untied his tie, and took a few sips of water.

Wen Zhijiao opened the door to the glass office and sat opposite him. He was a little surprised, "What's wrong? Is something not comfortable?"

She paused and said, "President Jiang, it's just… are you free now?"

"Ten minutes." Jiang Linchen glanced at his watch, put down the bottle, and sighed, "I have another meeting later."

"Ah, that's enough." Wen Zhijiao nodded, pursed her lips, and looked at Jiang Linchen, "About this morning, I'm sorry, I didn't expect him to act directly."

Jiang Linchen hummed, smiling at her, "It's okay, it's not your fault, he just had a misunderstanding with me."

Wen Zhijiao blinked, "What did he say to you? How could there be a misunderstanding?"

"He just said that he had a date with you, and that I should leave quickly." Jiang Linchen seemed helpless, his eyes were serious, "I know you were also threatened, right?"

Ah?

Wen Zhijiao had a question mark above her head, she looked at Jiang Linchen in confusion, waiting for him to continue.

Jiang Linchen didn't seem to notice her confusion, his voice was slow and steady, "I heard that Yuancheng had a conflict with him not long ago. Now Yuancheng is like this, I think he might deliberately make things difficult for you. So I talked to him a lot, hoping he wouldn't take you away. It just so happens that the Pei family and the Jiang family have a good relationship, I know his mother, and I'm also his half-brother."

"I contacted his family and hoped he would let you go." His smile faded a little, "But I'm really useless, I'm twenty-five years old and I was punched by a young guy."

Jiang Linchen said, touching the bruise on his lip with the back of his hand.

Wen Zhijiao: "..."

It seems like that makes sense!

Jiang Linchen continued, "But it's understandable, after all, he was treated like that by Yuancheng before, he might have some resentment, but you still have to be careful. Yuancheng left... after he fell into a coma, Mom has a big opinion of you, I'm worried that you might be deceived in this situation."

Really? But Pei Ye seems like a good person?

Wen Zhijiao was a little confused, she just looked at Jiang Linchen, a few seconds later, she saw a gentle and warm smile on his injured face. He shook his head, as if he was very helpless, but he didn't say anything.

She felt like someone was renovating her brain, hammering here and there, everything was hazy.

Wen Zhijiao raised her hand and tucked her hair behind her ear. The sunlight reflected, and a flash of light flashed in front of Jiang Linchen's eyes. He looked closely and found it was her nail polish, tiny silver sparkles dotted her fingertips.

He thought it was the engagement ring again.

Such a thought suddenly popped up in Jiang Linchen's mind, but then his gaze fell. A few seconds later, he looked up at Wen Zhijiao, a little embarrassed, and said, "I have to go to a meeting, ah, can you help me fix my tie? I’m not very good at tying it."

"Oh, okay."

Wen Zhijiao’s brain was still wrestling between Pei Ye and Jiang Linchen, but she agreed. She walked to Jiang Linchen, Jiang Linchen was about to stand up, but Wen Zhijiao raised her hand and pushed his shoulder, pushing him back onto the sofa. The next second, she saw Jiang Linchen’s suppressed gaze.

Wen Zhijiao immediately realized something was wrong, and said, "I just did it instinctively, sorry."

She added, "I only tied ties for Yuancheng, and usually he sits and I stand, because it’s tiring to look up all the time..."

"It's okay, I can also sit."

Jiang Linchen cut her off, smiling at her, but his eyes had a hint of gloom.

He stared straight at her, leaning back in his chair, watching her movements. She lowered her head, her fluffy curly hair fell on his face and shoulders, causing a tingling sensation and tension on his skin. The faint scent of roses instantly filled his breath.

Jiang Linchen saw her fluttering eyelashes, her pursed lips, and noticed the rise and fall of her body as she breathed. Her white and slender fingers were entwined and shuttled between the tie, the luster on her nail polish seemed to melt into a thick liquid, almost touching his shirt. But upon closer inspection, it was just a delusion.

When she was about to take the final step, her hand rested against his chest, adjusting the position of the Windsor knot.

At that moment, Wen Zhijiao suddenly felt that his body temperature was very high, his chest was burning, and his heartbeat was beating violently under her hand, through the fabric and the shirt. She almost thought she was holding his heart, not his tie.

She felt his slightly disordered breath, and the faint scent of aftershave on him, cool and refreshing. They were a little too close, she looked up at Jiang Linchen. Behind his glasses, his eyes had a kind of joyful light, he stared for a long time, his lips were pursed, and his body was hiding a kind of aggression.

But the next second, Jiang Linchen leaned back, and said, "Let me fix it."

Wen Zhijiao released the tie, Jiang Linchen also reached for the tie, their hands met and rubbed against each other for a moment, then separated. She quickly stepped back, widening the distance, feeling even more confused. But Jiang Linchen had already stood up, as if he was sincerely thanking her, "Thanks."

He didn’t wait for her to reply, and left the office.

As soon as he walked out of the office, the secretary was holding a file and reporting the content of the upcoming meeting. After a few steps, Jiang Linchen suddenly said, "Wait, I’ll go back and get a document."

The secretary was silent for a few seconds, and whispered, "You’ve forgotten your documents several times today."

Jiang Linchen patted his shoulder, "Yes, but this time I really forgot."

The secretary said, "...Mr. Jiang doesn't usually do this."

After saying that, he realized something was wrong, and immediately bowed, "President Jiang, I apologize, I spoke out of line."

"It's okay, I'm different from him, I'm not that serious, as long as it doesn't affect work." Jiang Linchen laughed, as if he was in a very good mood, "Besides, he doesn't raise flowers when he's at work, but I do, so I have to check from time to time if they need watering, what if they wither?"

He recalled those times he went back to the office today, Wen Zhijiao was staring at the computer in the glass room. She didn't even know she could pull down the blinds to block the view, she just sat there, oblivious to the world, like a flower imprisoned in a greenhouse, or a moon in a window display.

Since admitting that he was shallow, Jiang Linchen deeply realized the importance of having Wen Zhijiao in front of him. At least for the sake of shallow visual satisfaction, he could improve his meeting efficiency.

The secretary kept chattering beside him, Jiang Linchen walked to the door of the office, pushed it open, and found that Wen Zhijiao hadn't returned to her little glass room, but was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, lost in thought. Her eyes were downcast, the sunlight was very kind to her, even the tiny hairs and eyelashes on her face were plated with a brilliant light.

The moment she heard the noise, Wen Zhijiao immediately turned around, against the light, he could barely see her face, he could only hear her say, "Ah, I just saw a ferry, I was a little curious, so I took a look."

"Hmm, it's okay, I like to do that when I'm tired of looking at documents."

Jiang Linchen smiled, walked to the desk, picked up the documents, and turned to leave. After a few steps, he turned to look at Wen Zhijiao, she consciously walked towards the little glass room, looking listless.

His fingers rubbed the document and said, "Do you want to get off work?"

Wen Zhijiao’s eyes lit up, she nodded vigorously, "Hmm hmm hmm."

Jiang Linchen said again, "Then you have to go with me..."

"To a meeting?" Wen Zhijiao interrupted him, shaking her head vigorously, "No, I’ll just wait until the end of work."

She looked listless again, she locked herself in the glass room and started looking at the computer.

She played mini-games all day, she was a little tired, she should read a novel.

Wen Zhijiao clicked on a novel about roses and moons, she hadn’t even finished reading the synopsis when she heard a knock on the door. She looked over in confusion, but saw Jiang Linchen open the glass door, standing at the door looking at her, "Not to a meeting."

Wen Zhijiao said, "Ah, what?"

Jiang Linchen said, "Skipping work."

Wen Zhijiao: "..."!

She jumped up, closed her laptop, quickly swept the small mirror, small comb, perfume, and a bunch of other things on the desk into her bag, and rushed to Jiang Linchen in three steps, "Really? When? Now?"

The sudden closeness startled Jiang Linchen for a few seconds. When he looked down, he could see her looking up at him with anticipation. Before she could stop talking, she continued, "Where are we going? I’m a little hungry, I want to eat something and then go play. Also, I thought about it, one million is your savings, so can you just give me ten thousand to support me? I think it doesn’t have to be work compensation, right? Ten thousand is enough for me, really!"

Jiang Linchen heard her barrage of words, and felt his brain was a little dizzy. He recalled her words and answered one by one, "Really, now, yes. I haven’t thought about it yet, what do you want to eat? Okay, you can have as much as you want. If you think it’s not appropriate, then forget it."

After saying that, he laughed again.

This is really killing me, it’s a good thing I didn’t meet her when I was a teenager, or I might be working in a factory tightening screws right now!
