Chapter 136 - I will give you an explanation.
“Your coffee. Give it a try.” Ji Ziming’s eyes had a touch of gentleness that he himself did not realize. He slowly and carefully placed the glass containing coffee and milk in front of Pei Ge.
The originally pearly white color of the milk was now almost of the same color as the cup of café au lait before Ji Ziming.
It was just that Pei Ge’s was much lighter since hers had higher milk content.
“Thank you.” For some unknown reason, Pei Ge felt slightly disconcerted when faced with such a Ji Ziming.
She was the typical type of woman who could only be persuaded by reason but would not be cowed by force. She did not hold grudges, but she would remember other’s kindness. If someone treated her just a little better, she would return them many times back.
Tonight, she felt an inexplicable sense of awkwardness toward the exceptionally ‘friendly’ him.
Recalling the things she had done to him in the past, she thought guiltily, Was I thinking of him with too much prejudice all this while?
“Hm? When did you have someone investigate it?” She did not expect for him to order an investigation on this incident.
“This act of starting rumors and creating trouble at the company must definitely be investigated,” he coldly said. The sober Ji Ziming had completely shaken off the gentle air about him from moments ago and returned to his usual cold and apathetic self.
For some unknown reason, she felt a little down at his response.
It isn’t because of me…
“Report to work on time tomorrow; I will give you a resolution.” Ji Ziming’s face darkened a little when he saw the downcast Pei Ge.
“Yes. Thank you, CEO Ji.” She regained her senses and smiled at him.
Why is it that I don’t feel the least bit happy even when this annoying fellow said that he’ll give me an explanation?
