Ding! Ding!

Just as si linna was about to explain further, the elevator doors opened. Ji Ziming coughed lightly, tidied his lapels, and returned to his meeting room with the cold face of a CEO.

“Personal matters?” The elevator door hadn’t closed yet, and Si linna hadn’t walked out either.

She twitched her lips and sneered,””Hur. Ji Ziming, when did we only talk about business? I’m afraid you’ve forgotten that I came to the Ji group for personal matters, and personal matters are you!”

Just as the elevator doors were about to close, si linna elegantly walked out in her high heels. Not long after, PEI GE also took the other elevator up and hurriedly caught up to si linna the moment the doors opened.

Just as she reached the door, si linna heard footsteps behind her and quickly turned around.

When he saw her panting, he immediately pretended to be smug and said,””Pei Pei, you were too slow just now. CEO Ji and I saw that you didn’t come out after so long, so we came up first. I didn’t wait for you to enter the elevator. ”

Even someone with a low EQ like her could tell that he was showing off. It was not that she did not understand that this was actually the decision of that Black-bellied CEO.

Hence, he pretended to be nonchalant and replied,””En, it doesn’t matter. It’s the same for me to take the last trip. CEO Ji should be inside by now, so let’s hurry up. ”

With that, she ignored si linna’s insufferably arrogant face and headed straight for his office.

Inside the office, Ji Ziming was like an oil painting as he lay on the sofa with his hands spread out. His eyes were focused on the direction in which si linna and PEI GE had entered. His handsome face, which was always pale and serious, seemed emotionless, making people shiver involuntarily.

The more this was the case, the more uneasy she felt, as if many small drums were beating on her chest.

She obsequiously followed si linna to the sofa and sat down. From time to time, she would peek at the changes in Ji Ziming’s expression from the corner of her eye, afraid that she would say something wrong later and get into a conflict with him. In order to get used to working at the Ji group as soon as possible, she really had to swallow her anger.

It seemed that she had indeed said something wrong and hurt him. At this moment, when they were all seated, he did not give them a good look.

He first sighed and then said solemnly,””Alright, we’ve had afternoon tea. Now, let’s talk about serious business. I’m sure all of you already know that the Ji group’s jewelry design company’s new product launch will be held next Monday. I looked through the first draft again before you came in just now. Pei PEI’s design is not bad, but …”

“But what? CEO Ji?” Pei Pei tilted her head slightly and asked.

He did not answer her question directly but, with a profound look on his face, said,””It’s like this, the theme of the first draft is quite suitable, but ultimately, you should still start with the company’s theme and cultural background. You should make some changes to the details. I’ll compare it again on Monday. If it’s better than the first draft, we’ll use the revised version. If it’s not, we’ll still use today ‘s. ”

However, it was already Friday. If she were to change everything … At this thought, fear and uneasiness flashed across her eyes. Her furrowed brows seemed to be filled with disdain. Isn’t this man clearly trying to make things difficult for me?

Hearing this, si linna, who was standing at the side, was filled with joy. She thought that Ji Ziming wanted Pei Pei to work overtime and deliberately made things difficult for her because of what Pei Pei had said at the tea restaurant.

Her foxy eyes turned and she hurriedly said,””CEO Ji, it’s already past four in the afternoon. With so many drafts, Pei Pei will probably have to work overtime until late at night if she’s to continue editing them. It’s not that I want to be a busybody, but although I’m only the chief designer of the Ji group, I’ll still stay and help with the modification. ”

When she said this, it made her seem like she was a righteous person and also cared about the relationship between colleagues. In fact, she was just putting on a show.

As expected, the man seemed to have made up his mind and directly asserted,””No need, si linna. Your design style is very different from Pei Pei ‘s. Let her do all the new products.”

After that, the three of them fell silent.

Seeing that she was still staring at the design drafts on the table in a daze, he raised an eyebrow and asked,””What’s wrong? Pei Pei, do you have a problem? “It’s fine; you can tell me directly if you have any problems. If you really can’t do it …” He paused for a moment before spreading out his palm as if he did not care. His handsome brows were knitted into a frown.

“No, I can! It’s a new product launch, after all. Since the company and CEO Ji value me so much, I have to show them some respect. It’s not a big deal to work overtime or anything. Besides, I’m the chief designer, so this is just part of my job. ”

Actually, Ji Ziming wanted to say that he would also stay behind to work overtime and edit the design. After all, the theme and cultural background needed to be kept up, and this was his suggestion.

However, he did not expect her to recommend herself so quickly.

Si linna, who was watching a good show from the side, smiled even more. She coughed lightly and said,””Pei Pei, are you sure there’s no problem? There are so many first drafts. If we were to edit them all one by one, I’m guessing you’ll have to stay up late tonight and this weekend. Can you handle it?”

Pei Pei forced out a smile and looked at Ji Ziming and Si linna with certainty.””I have to try, don’t I? After all, this is my first task as the chief, and work doesn’t feed idlers. Didn’t the company invite me back to solve the problem? I’ll work hard. ”

He crossed his arms as he looked at her with bright eyes and a smile.””Good, your momentum is indeed not bad. I hope I didn’t look down on you. That’s all for today’s meeting. You can all go and do your own things. If there’s any problem, report back to me. ”

With that, he stood up and walked toward his desk.

She did not say anything else and merely picked up the first draft on the glass table.
