“CEO Ji, your coffee.”

She quickly pushed this thought aside as she reached his table and placed the coffee on it.

Keeping his hand phone, the man frowned at her.

Why is this dumb woman suddenly so polite with me?

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave your office now.” She lightly pursed her lips first before she informed the man sitting in his black leather chair of this.

Who was this annoying fellow with on the phone just then? It seems to be a woman; could it be the woman he likes?

“Mhm.” The man’s brows twitched. Still, he could not say anything else as her expression was indecipherable.

She promptly turned to walk toward the door at his response.

“Wait.” She was about to step out of this stifling office of his when the man called out to her from behind.

She quickly halted her steps.

“CEO Ji, is there something else?” She turned to ask him.

“You…” Noting that she was quite a distance away from him and was standing upright formally, he paused slightly before he hesitantly asked the question in his mind.

“Are you angry?”

Is this dumb woman angry? But… Why is she angry?

Feeling her heart skip a beat at his question, she hastily moved to refute it.

“I’m not. Why should I be angry?”

“Oh.” Even though she had given him a resolute reply, his eyes still held some suspicion as he regarded her. “Accompany me to a dinner banquet after work today.”

“Mhm-kay.” Without a second’s hesitation, she readily agreed to his order.

He was made uncomfortable by her response; he could not get used to the fact that she easily agreed to this.

He raised a hand and lightly picked up the coffee she had brewed for him.

“Then, CEO Ji, I will leave now.” She informed him once more with a polite smile.

“Mhm.”

He nodded and then placed the cup to his lips to take a sip.

The instant the coffee entered his mouth, his face froze.

With a stroke of luck, she witnessed the change in his expression.

His eyes widened infinitely and his expression soured. Quickly putting the cup down, he showed an oh so pitiful look. It was as if he had just suffered the greatest shock of his life.

She was unable to stifle her laughter in time at the sight.

“Pffft!”

Ha ha ha!

All the negative emotions swirling inside her instantly dispersed at his indescribable expression. In fact, it improved her mood considerably.

“Pei Ge!” Forcing himself to swallow the sickeningly sweet drink, he glared hatefully at the woman who was laughing aloud.

However, the moment his gaze registered her brilliant smile, he forgot what he wanted to say and could only stare dazedly at her.

He gazed at the smile on her seemingly common-looking face; it was a smile that was incomparably beautiful, radiant, and contagious.

“CEO Ji, slowly enjoy your coffee! This little one here will take her leave now!” Pei Ge did not notice the abnormality in him. Throwing him a sly smile, she quickly fled the office.

Only after she had left the room did he recover from his bewitched state over a ‘beauty’s smile’.

“That d*mn woman, why would she smile so beautifully for no reason…” he cursed softly.

His mind was now filled with images of her radiant smile.

When his gaze rested on the cup before him, though, his mind promptly cleared up.

“…”

His face darkened again as he regarded the offending cup, which was still filled with steaming coffee.

This is definitely the worst coffee I’ve ever tasted – definitely the worst!

“That d*mn woman must have done it on purpose!” He gnashed his teeth as he regarded this coffee, which could be likened to demon food.

Have I been treating that stupid woman very well recently for her to dare treat me like this?!

I must properly educate that impudent woman at home tonight!

Pei Ge was unable to control what he was thinking right now.

Still, nothing could dampen her upbeat mood at the moment.

She felt that she could laugh at his frozen expression for years.

Ha ha ha!

She happily hummed a tune under her breath once she got back to her seat.

Her happy mood lasted all the way to lunchtime.

“Sister Pei Ge, you’re finally back to work!”

At exactly lunchtime, before a certain Mr. CEO came out of his office, his cousin appeared first.

When Qin Qitong appeared before her, she beamed with happiness.

“Let’s go, Sister Pei Ge! Let’s go for lunch!”

“Mhm-kay!”

Regrettably, a certain busy and hardworking Mr. CEO’s cousin cut in the line!

When he finally exited his office, he was dumbfounded at what he discovered.

“Pei Ge, I—”

Opening the wooden door to the CEO’s office and moving to speak, he came to realize that the woman was no longer in her seat.

He eyed the empty seat and his brows knitted together as his face turned cold.

“CEO Ji, are you looking for Pei Ge? She left before it’s lunchtime.” Lu Huiya, who was still there, took this chance to talk sh*t about the other.

However, the moment she said that, w.a.n.g Ningning exposed her lie.

“Huiya, that’s not right. She left on the dot. She didn’t leave early.”

Lu Huiya felt as though she would die from anger at her remark.

However, her anger instantly died down when she received the man’s sharp glare.

Turning to look at w.a.n.g Ningning, he asked coldly, “Where did she go?”

“Oh, I think she went off with the Planning Department’s Qin Qitong,” she politely informed.

Hearing his cousin’s name, the man’s face instantly turned dark.

Is that la.s.s’s interns.h.i.+p almost over? Should I kick this la.s.s back to uncle’s company?
