"What's wrong with you? Am I wrong? The person who took the photo was a bored fool. He didn't sleep at night and went to that godforsaken place…"
“STOP!”Qing Ning's face almost contorted. She could not bear it any longer and interrupted Ji Mo. Then, she pretended to ignore him and continued reading the news.
Her fingertips stopped on a seemingly blurry photo. The angle of the photo was not very good, so the woman in the photo looked a little blurry.
Looking at the photo, Qing Ning shook her head and muttered to herself,""This person's camera is either too lousy or his photography skills are too bad. He can't even take a clear picture of a person!”
After a pause, she continued to mutter in Ji Mo's ear,""From the outline, it looks like a middle-aged woman. Tsk tsk, which woman would be so stupid and courageous to live alone in that kind of place? Aren't they afraid of being eaten by demons?”
Ji Mo glanced at her and said disapprovingly,""What are you talking about all day? Where did the monster come from?”
Qing Ning glanced at him and pursed her lips. She thought to herself,'Tsk, what do you mean by no monsters? There are two monsters around you all the time. One of them is me, and the other is Bai Yuqi.'
There were some things in this world that you couldn't believe in just because you didn't have them, okay?
There were many times when it was not your turn to not believe in evil!
Seeing that Ji Mo did not care about the news at all, Xiaoning had no other choice. After a long while, she handed the tablet to Ji Mo and enlarged the photo for him to see.
"Hooligan Ji, why do you think this person lives alone in this deep forest?"”
"How would I know? I'm busy, don't mess with me first!" Ji Mo was about to push the tablet away when he stopped mid-action.
Then, he snatched the laptop from Xiaoning's hands and scrolled through the blurry photos seriously.
A minute later, he placed the laptop on the desk and hugged Xiaoning excitedly. He smiled like a child and said,""Woman, I know where my aunt is!”
After a pause, he pushed Xiaoning away and grabbed her shoulders, planting a kiss on her delicate lips. He said with a serious smile,""Thank you!"
Qing Ning was stunned by his reaction. By the time she regained her senses, Ji Mo had already grabbed his suit jacket and strode out of the office.
From afar, she could hear him calling his bodyguard and saying,"Prepare the carriage immediately and go to Mount Jingluan!"
Stunned, Xiaoning reached out to touch her red lips, which were still warm. She chuckled when she thought of Ji Mo's reaction.
However, when she thought about how he had said that the person who took those photos was a jerk and a joker, the corners of her mouth could not help but twitch violently.
Was it easy for her?
Wasn't she taking these photos for him? He actually thought she was a monster!
She wanted to help him find his aunt, but she didn't want to expose her identity. She had no choice but to do this. It really wasn't easy for her, okay?
Ji Mo was in a good mood for the next few days after finding his aunt!
However, he was too busy to spend time with her, let alone thank her.
After that night, Qing Ning could not find any trace of Bai Yuqi.
These days, she had been paying attention to Bai Yuqi's news while cultivating diligently. She did not feel bored.
However, these days, she had wanted to contact her elder sister to ask if Bai Yuqi was the snake demon she had mentioned. However, she did not know what her elder sister was busy with or what had happened, so she could not contact her.
On this day, Ji Mo and his secretaries and assistants were all in a meeting.
On the 100th floor alone, Xiaoning tried to contact her elder sister, Hong Zhu, after cultivating, but there was still no news.
Just as she was feeling depressed, the landline on Ji Mo's desk rang. For the first time, Qing Ning did not pick up the call. It was only after the landline rang a few times that she finally answered the call kindly."Hello, the president is not in right now. Please leave a message if there's an emergency!”
"Hey, Qingning, why did you only pick up now? Of course I know that the CEO is not here! It's because the CEO isn't around that I'm making this call. If it were any other time, I wouldn't have the courage to make this call!”As soon as the call connected, there was a series of complaints.
"Qifan, what's up?" The woman on the other end was Luo Qifan, the head of the Planning Department. She had just gotten to know Qing Ning better over the past few days.
Qifan hesitated for a while and said,"" Erm…Qingning…I told you not to be sad…"
"You want to tell me something that might make me sad?" Qing Ning frowned curiously.”
" Yes…" Yifan nodded.
"Speak!" After pondering for a moment, she could not think of anything that would make her sad, so she agreed to it openly.
"It's like this. Just an hour ago, the employees of these departments were spreading rumors that CEO Ji was hiding a mistress in his golden house. Do you know about this?" Qi Fan was curious, but at the same time, she couldn't help but confide in him,""Qingning, although CEO Ji is rich, powerful, talented, and good-looking, if he really does something like hiding a mistress in a golden house, we can't have him no matter how good he is, understand?”
" Uh…" Qing Ning was stunned for a moment and felt a little uncomfortable."Hiding a mistress in a golden house? Where did it start?"
"I asked! Many people said that this matter first came from the finance department! I don't know who spread the news first!”
"This should be Zi Wuxu's business! Qifan, let others talk, we don't care!”Qing Ning shrugged nonchalantly.
Qifan heard her nonchalant words and raised her voice.""Hey! Qing Ning, can you be more careful? CEO Ji is your man. You have to clarify this matter no matter what! If that's not the case, then stand up for CEO Ji. This is your duty as his woman. If he really did something like that, then you can find evidence and make a clean break with him!”
Qing Ning wiped the sweat off her forehead and said,""I say, great aunt, what do you want? At first, he advised me not to be sad, and now he's advising me to take this matter seriously!”
After a pause, she continued," I'll say it again. Although I have an unclear dispute with Ji Mo, Ji Mo is not my man, and I'm not his woman. Understand?”
"What do you know? You're such a heartless woman! You're already entangled with him, but you still don't want him to give you a status. Is there something wrong with your brain?”Qifan was also a rare tomboy, so she did not hold back at all.
"Who cares about the status he gave me!" Qing Ning rolled her eyes helplessly.”
She was a demon, and he was a human. Humans and demons would not have an ending.
When all the evildoers around him were eliminated, she would have to leave. Since that was the case, she would not force anything from the beginning.
Who cared if Ji Mo was hiding a mistress in a golden house, silver house, or pearl house?
Besides, after knowing Ji Mo for so long, his private life was only a little messy when he was possessed by the evil spirit. After knowing her, he was busy with work and pestered her. How could he have the time to hide his mistress in a golden house?
Qifan tried to persuade her in a fit of pique,""Qingning, don't be stubborn! If you didn't care, with your personality and temper, how could you tolerate everyone's discussion or come to Qingtian to be his assistant in name only? Don't you still want to face him, want to face him day and night?”
Gu Liang, you're thinking too much! The corners of Qing Ning's mouth twitched. She really wanted to say that to Qifan, but after thinking about it, she decided not to dampen her enthusiasm, so she said perfunctorily,""I know! When he comes back later, I'll torture him!”
"That's right! That's right!" "I want a video!" Yifan shouted excitedly. I want to see how wonderful our arrogant and insufferably arrogant emperor will be when he is interrogated by his favorite concubine!”
"Get lost! I'm hanging up!" Qing Ning laughed and hung up the phone.
She felt that this matter was not simple. Who spread this rumor first? What was his motive for being so sudden?
" Ring, ring…" While Qing Ning was meditating, the landline rang again.
"What now?" Thinking that it was Qifan, Qing Ning sounded a little impatient.
"Assistant Qing, this is the reception area! There's a lady downstairs who wants to see the CEO!”Hearing the impatience in Xiaoning's tone, the receptionist did not even dare to breathe loudly. She was afraid that she would be chased out of Qingtian Industry by Emperor Ji if she were to annoy this favored consort.
Feeling that she had scared the little girl, Xiaoning immediately said with a smile,""I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you! The CEO was still in a meeting and was not seeing anyone at this time!”
" But..." The receptionist hesitated for a moment before continuing,""This young lady said that we can wait upstairs. Is that okay?”
Qing Ning frowned and thought to herself, Could it be the flowers and plants that Ji Mo had provoked in the past?
"Did she say her name and why she wanted to see the CEO?”
" She said... she said..." The receptionist stuttered, not daring to say what she wanted to say next.
"What did she say?"
"She said that the last time CEO Ji went to her place, he was not in a good state, so she specially made some tonic soup for him!”The front desk girl had already forgotten to breathe after she braced herself to say this.
She couldn't be blamed, but the information contained in her words was too much.
It seemed to confirm the gossip in the company today. CEO Ji really seemed to be hiding a mistress in his golden house.
She was really afraid that Assistant Qing would tear down the CEO's office in a fit of anger after hearing this!
The corners of Qing Ning's lips twitched. Her words were indeed full of information and could make people fantasize. At the same time, she was successfully disgusted by them.
"What's her name?" She wanted to see where Ji Mo had gone to provoke such a shameless woman.
"This lady's surname is Bai!" The receptionist quickly replied.”
"Surname Bai?" Qing Ning narrowed her beautiful eyes and smiled wickedly.""Tell her to go straight to the CEO's office on the 100th floor!”
Surnamed Bai? If she guessed correctly, it was Bai Yuqi, that snake demon!
What was this called? This was what it meant to search for it without effort!
She had wasted so much energy searching for her these past few days. She did not expect her to come knocking on her door today!
She must not have known that she was Ji Mo's nominal assistant!
This snake demon was too disgusting. The reason why Ji Mo was in such a bad state that day was because she had absorbed his vitality.
Today, she had even deliberately spoken so ambiguously to the employees below her, ruining Ji Mo's image. Soon, the rumors would spread to her. She would see how she would deal with her later.
After the receptionist hung up, she looked a little stunned.
Was there really something between Assistant Qing and CEO Ji? Why did she still smile and ask her love rival to go to the CEO's office?
The receptionist shook her head in confusion. Just as she was about to let the delicate and beautiful Bai Yuqi go up, she heard Bai Yuqi's soft and weak voice. It made people feel sorry for her.
"Mr. Ji, did you specially come down to pick me up?”Bai Yuqi's soft voice was filled with joy that could not be ignored.
Ji Mo, who had just stepped out of the private elevator, frowned when he saw Bai Yuqi walking towards him.""Why are you here?"
When the receptionist heard CEO Ji's irrelevant answer, the corners of her mouth twitched. She thought to herself, Miss Bai is thinking too much! You're overthinking it!
Bai Yuqi looked disappointed when she heard Ji Mo's words. She then tried her best to smile and handed the thermos flask in her hand to Ji Mo. In a soft and gentle voice, she said,""I saw that you were very weak that day, so I specially made some tonic soup for you. You ate it while it was hot, right?”
When the employees who had pricked up their ears to listen to the gossip heard this, they were all in a huff. They did not need to look to imagine their CEO Ji's dark face.
This woman was too fearless and didn't give CEO Ji any face.
She actually despised their CEO's weak body in public and even specially sent soup to nourish him? This…this…wasn't he deliberately playing with the lives of these eavesdropping employees?
If they had known earlier, they wouldn't have eavesdropped so curiously…Now, curiosity really killed the cat?
She wondered if CEO Ji would 'silence' those who knew too much to cover up his…incompetence!
The more the employees thought about it, the colder their hearts became. Some of them passed by the lobby and accidentally heard the employees running away.
The employees were right! When Ji Mo heard Bai Yuqi's words, his entire face darkened. His eyes were dangerously deep as he looked at Bai Yuqi, who was still smiling lightly and seemed to be completely innocent. He did not know what he had said wrong.
"I don't need it!" he said coldly.”
After Ji Mo finished speaking, he turned sideways and walked past Bai Yuqi coldly. His eyes were sharp and ruthless, sweeping across the employees who were eavesdropping like a machine gun.
This glance made all the employees shiver even more. They wailed in their hearts that their jobs were gone.
"Mr. Ji! This pot of Tang Yuqi took several hours to boil, and you're just going to drink it, okay?”Bai Yuqi caught up to him and grabbed the sleeve of Ji Mo's clothes with one hand. Her beautiful face was full of hope.
If it were any other man, he would not have been able to reject her, but Ji Mo was not just anyone. He glanced at Bai Yuqi coldly and pulled her hand away. He said in a cold tone,""This is not a place you should be!”
" Mr. Ji…" Bai Yuqi's face was full of hurt. She glanced at the extremely cold Ji Mo and lowered her head timidly, but she still handed him the thermos flask in her hand."Mr. Ji, I know I shouldn't have come, but I've already brought this soup. I'll leave immediately after you drink it!"
"I said I don't need it!" Ji Mo's expression turned even colder, as if it could freeze at any moment.
"Tsk tsk, I say, Ji Mo, if your body isn't good, you have to nourish it. Don't be afraid of being laughed at.”Just as Ji Mo finished speaking, he heard a mocking voice coming from behind him.
The owner of this voice was none other than the famous financial investment consultant who had been busy with Ji Mo for the past few days to help Qingtian break into the American market-Eric, whose Chinese name was Chu Yige!
Chu Yige had just finished speaking when he received two cold and sharp gazes from Ji Mo.
Ji Mo's heart was filled with hatred as he glared at Chu Yige, who was smiling. With a stoic face, he said coldly,""You can still smile. Looks like I can keep you here for a few more days.”
"No, no, no, CEO Ji, you don't have to be so polite!”Chu Yige immediately shook his head and waved his hand." I really have something on my side. The person I introduced to you will arrive tomorrow!"”
"Humph!" Ji Mo snorted coldly. He was still dissatisfied with Chu Yige's retreat halfway through his help, but he was helpless. After all, there was really something going on at home. He had no choice but to let her go. Besides, she had dutifully introduced him to his business partner. It was already very kind of her.
" Mr. Ji…" On the other side, Bai Yuqi was unwilling to be ignored. Her hands were still in the position of handing the thermos flask to CEO Ji.
"Yo, what's this! Let me see!" However, before she could finish her sentence, the thermos flask in her hand was snatched away by the sudden appearance of Qing Ning.
Qingning? Why was she here?
Bai Yuqi's first reaction was to turn around and leave when she saw Qing Ning. However, she had yet to fully recover from her injuries and her magic power had only recovered by 30%. She was no match for Qing Ning at all.
However, Bai Yuqi was cunning and experienced, so she quickly calmed down.
She knew that Qing Ning was afraid of exposing her identity. Just like the last time at the villa, she would not touch her in front of Ji Mo.
Therefore, Bai Yuqi was fearless at this moment. Seeing that Xiaoning was about to open the lid of the thermos flask, she said anxiously,""Miss, this is the tonic soup I prepared for Mr. Ji. It's not suitable for you to drink!”
As if she had not heard her at all, Xiaoning lifted the lid of the thermos flask and sniffed it. With a look of disdain, she said,""What is it? Stinky! Little sister, throw it away so that CEO Ji won't get sick!”
The receptionist was a little stunned as she took the bottle. After a moment of hesitation, she looked at Bai Yuqi, then at Qing Ning, and then at Ji Mo. She realized that their usually cold CEO Ji was looking at Assistant Qing with a half-smile. Without any hesitation, she carried the thermos flask and walked towards the trash can while Bai Yuqi was still in a daze.
"Wait!" Just as the receptionist was about to throw the thermos flask into the trash can, Ji Mo stopped her!
What was going on?
Not only the receptionist, but even the other spectators were puzzled! Everyone could not help but peek at CEO Ji's expression curiously. In the blink of an eye, the originally cold man's lips were now slightly curled up. His frosty aura had unknowingly turned from winter to spring, giving off a warm feeling. It was as comfortable as the spring breeze in March. Naturally, the employees who were originally tense and did not dare to breathe slowly relaxed.
However, they were still puzzled!
Didn't CEO Ji not need the soup just now? Now that Assistant Qing had appeared, why wouldn't he let someone throw the soup away? Could it be that CEO Ji was really…not very good at that? Or did he want to anger Assistant Qing and make her nervous?
However, this expression didn't look like it!
Just as everyone was speculating in their hearts, Mr. Ji glanced at Xiaoning with a flirtatious smile. He then walked elegantly to the front desk lady and took the thermos flask from her. He then slowly walked up to the unhappy Xiaoning.
"Are you sure you want to drink it?" Qing Ning frowned.”
Although she had already sniffed the soup and there was nothing wrong with it, and it was indeed a soup for replenishing qi and blood…why did she not want Ji Mo to drink the soup that Bai Yuqi had made for him?
Moreover, he had already said that he did not want to drink it. She had asked someone to throw it away, but he did not allow it. Wasn't he deliberately making her feel embarrassed?
For no reason, Qing Ning's heart began to burn with anger!
Noticing the fire in her eyes, Ji Mo smiled casually and bent down slightly to stare at her seriously for a few seconds. Then, he nodded solemnly and said in a clear voice,""That's right! I have to drink this soup!"
"Ah?" Everyone exclaimed in disbelief! Then, as if realizing something, he quickly covered his mouth and did what he was supposed to do, putting on a very busy look.
They did not hear anything. They really did not hear CEO Ji say that he wanted to drink that Gu soup! She really didn't know if CEO Ji was that kind of person! They didn't make any sound just now! It was true!
So…please let me go!
However, there were many people who were not afraid of death, such as Chu Yi Ge!
He took a step forward and patted Ji Mo's shoulder. He said with pity and deep meaning,""Junior! That's right, his kidney deficiency must be supplemented in time! Otherwise, if he missed it, he would miss it all in the future!”
Chu Yi Ge's words made everyone who was afraid of being punished not know whether to praise him for his bravery or scold him for being reckless or a black sheep! He actually dared to touch CEO Ji's reverse scale?
Would They Become the Fish in the Pond?
However, Ji Mo merely glanced at Chu Yige casually and pretended to glance at the crowd casually. Then, he looked at Qing Ning as if nothing had happened and nodded again. He said in a steady voice,""You're angry. I think I should drink more! I must drink it!"
" You…" Qing Ning was infuriated by his opposition. She wanted to lash out at him, but after glancing at the people entering and leaving the lobby, she held back.
Bai Yuqi, who had not had a chance to speak, lowered her head and smiled smugly when she heard Ji Mo's words. She thought to herself,'Ji Mo doesn't like Xiaoning as much as I thought. Otherwise, why would he go against my wishes to anger me?'
"What does her anger have to do with you drinking this soup?”Chu Yi Ge was curious.
That's right! What did it matter? Seeing that CEO Ji did not treat them coldly before, the busybodies became arrogant and nodded heavily to show their absolute curiosity.
Ignoring Chu Yige, Ji Mo looked at Xiaoning with a faint smile and asked gently,""Don't you know why?”
Qing Ning glared at him angrily. Initially, she wanted to ignore him, but she could not help but want to hear what he was trying to say. Hence, she shook her head honestly.
If she knew what Ji Mo was going to say next, she would definitely turn around and leave without saying a word if she had another chance!
Ji Mo straightened his body and sighed."As expected, I don't know! Then I'll tell you out of kindness! Usually, our lives are very harmonious, seven or eight times a night. But when you get angry, we're not harmonious. You always think of ways to torture me and squeeze me dry before you're satisfied! Tell me, this way I won't have the energy to do anything bad!”
"Go to hell!" Qing Ning's face instantly turned red as she reached out to strangle Ji Mo.
She regretted it so much that her intestines turned green! F * ck, this bastard actually slandered her in front of so many people, making her sound like a slut and a jealous woman. Would she still have the face to face others in the future?
"Puff!" At the same time, Chu Yige's eyes widened with internal injuries! Was this still the cold and elegant Ji Mo that he knew? He already felt that it wasn't like that when she smiled so coquettishly just now. Now, her moral integrity was shattered!
Damn it, seven or eight times a night, and even more when he was angry! He must be showing off, he must be!
She was still pitying him just now, but now…
At the same time, the male comrades who had been sympathizing with CEO Ji earlier were also injured, while the female comrades were glaring at Xiaoning with envy and jealousy.
Bai Yuqi, who had been ignored, turned even paler. Her body trembled with anger, and her lowered eyes flickered with intense jealousy and hatred.
Initially, Ji Mo had only changed his mind to drink her soup to flirt with her, not to anger her.
"Hehe…Woman, do you have to be so anxious to torture me? This is the company!" Ji Mo looked at the red-faced Qing Ning and dodged her attacks with a smile. His smile was as bright as the sun in the sky, and his entire body was emitting a dazzling glow.
"Wow! So handsome!" In an instant, the female employees were mesmerized, while the men were so shocked by Ji Mo's words that they could not close their mouths. In the end, they could only support their chins forcefully and criticize in their hearts. CEO Ji was so cheap!
"Hooligan Ji! I'll kill you!" Gritting her teeth in anger, she pounced on Ji Mo aggressively, ready to fight for her life.
Hooligan Ji? When everyone heard this, they were stunned at first, but then they nodded unanimously.
This nickname was too fitting. CEO Ji was really a hooligan! They were almost fooled by his cold appearance!
This time, Ji Mo didn't avoid her and instead held onto her slender waist with one hand, allowing her to hit and scold him. When she was almost done venting her anger, Ji Mo finally stopped smiling and handed the thermos flask back to the receptionist. He then grabbed onto her fist, which was starting to lose strength.
"Alright! You must be tired. Don't fight yet. I'll let you fight to your heart's content when we get back tonight!”
Puff! Everyone almost fell to the ground!
It was already hard enough for CEO Ji to let a woman behave atrociously towards him in public! They did not expect the cold, arrogant, and otherworldly CEO Ji to have masochistic tendencies. He actually said such words with a gentle and doting expression.
Their tall V5, cold and arrogant, cool and handsome CEO Ji…Was that just a legend?
Ji Mo's voice snapped Qing Ning back to her senses. It was only then that she realized that Ji Mo was hugging her. She glanced at the crowd and quickly pulled his hand away awkwardly. She then tried to pull Ji Mo's hand away from her slender wrist.
