"President Leng, I think you really misunderstood." Bai Zhen Zhen patiently explained to Leng Hao Chen, "there has never been any 'playing hard to get'. I don't have any interest in the position you offer, and I don't have any interest in you either."

"But I am interested in you." Leng Hao Chen's eyes were filled with possessiveness.

Bai Zhen Zhen was truly convinced. Since the old days, in Mary Sue stories, as long as the main leads were provided with a few romance cells, regardless they were a business elite or an aloof CEO, as soon as they met the female protagonist, they would suddenly lose their rationality, inexplicably being madly in love all of a sudden.

At the side, Bai Mengru was so jealous she almost looked vicious.

However, she still pressed the unwillingness in her heart, pretending to have kind intentions as she said to Leng Hao Chen in a low voice: "President Leng, my sister's temper is so stubborn, but it doesn't matter, I'll help you to persuade her."

Leng Hao Chen was not in a hurry, he merely raised his brows and said to Zhen Zhen: "Woman, you'll be mine sooner or later."

After saying that, he left without looking behind.

Before Michael left, he bowed to Bai Zhen Zhen: "Miss Bai, please enjoy dinner with your family..."

After such ruckus, Bai Zhen Zhen was not in the mood for dinner anymore.

Bai Mengru approached Bai Zhen Zhen and said apologetically, "sister, why don't you say anything? You're not... still angry with me, right?"

Bai Zhen Zhen avoided Bai Mengru's motion of holding her hand. Bai Mengru was shocked. Her sister had never been so indifferent towards her in the past.

"Did you get their phone number, in the end?"

Bai Mengru looked at Bai Zhen Zhen completely puzzled.

"Since you were able to find Leng Hao Chen's company, I'm sure you also must have found out his phone number and different pieces of his personal information, right?" Bai Zhen Zhen smiled, "if you want to fawn over someone, just fawn over them on your own, don't fiddle with my name."

"Sister, you've misunderstood me, how could I have such intentions..." Bai Mengru looked aggrieved.

"You better don't." Bai Zhen Zhen replied coldly, "don't say I didn't remind you, that Leng Hao Chen has a fiancée, you better not have any ideas on him."

Bai Mengru's expression appeared a bit stiff: "I, I don't..."

"Mengru, you really were wrong in this matter!" Father Bai said seriously, "no matter what, this is our family's business. What does it have to do with the boss? He originally had impure intentions towards Zhen Zhen, yet you still went to find him, isn't this pushing your sister into the fire pit?"

"Old Bai, what are you saying? Wasn't Mengru worried about your treatment?" Yang Suping felt aggrieved for her daughter.

Bai Mengru sobbed in a low voice: "Dad, I'm sorry, I hadn't thought that much..."

How could Father Bai see his daughter cry? He quickly changed to a gentle voice, appeasing: "Mengru, dad spoke a bit too serious a moment ago, don't take it to heart, dad doesn't blame you..."

Bai Zhen Zhen rolled her eyes. She didn't expect this eyeroll would be caught by Huo Xiang.

Huo Xiang smiled at her like someone enjoying a show.

Bai Zhen Zhen: "......"

She also wanted to be a popcorn-eating onlooker ah, why did she have to become the heroine?!
