Chapter 891: Untitled
“You…” Ye Shengge glared at him, but she didn’t have the strength to argue with him anymore.
“My time tonight is all yours, okay?” He chuckled.
“Should I thank you for your charity?” Ye Shengge smiled bitterly.
Ji Shiting raised an eyebrow.
“Then let me rephrase.” He stared at her. “Stay tonight, okay? I miss you.”
Ye Shengge sniffled and put her head on the man’s shoulder. It was a familiar embrace and scent, and he was trying to comfort her, but she still felt sad.
Ji Shiting’s heart ached seeing how she was still sobbing.
The elevator stopped.
He carried her out of the elevator and found the room. He swiped his card and entered. Seeing that the woman in his arms still looked dazed and weak, he swallowed hard and sat down on the sofa.
“I’ll ask them to deliver another meal.” He pinched her chin with his long fingers, making her look up at him. “Do you want it?”
Ye Shengge nodded and put her head on his shoulder.
Ji Shiting was dazed. He hugged her tighter and said, “If the cooperation fails, it means that York is too petty. This kind of partner isn’t worth keeping around.”
Ye Shengge bit her lips and said, “But the next partner might not be as good as him. Are you going to destroy it too? I’ve only interacted with CEOs and high-ranking executives of big corporations, and most of them are men. Some of them want to marry me because of the shares I have in T.S. Corporation. Some think I’m a pushover, so they take advantage of me verbally. There are also some who think I’m lonely and want to have a one-night stand with me…”
Ji Shiting got angrier. “They’re courting death! Do you remember who they are?”
He had heard Qiao Yanze mention that she was very popular, but he hadn’t expected that most of the men who were interested in her had bullied and humiliated her.
“It doesn’t matter who they are. Most of the time, it’s just a tactic. They think they can destroy my psychological defense by humiliating me, so they can have the upper hand in the negotiation.” Ye Shengge sniffed. “Of course, I won’t sit still and let them have their way.”
Ji Shiting was still furious. He grabbed her hand and said, “Sorry.”
She shouldn’t have endured all this, because it wasn’t her fault.
“So you should know that it’s rare to have a partner like York. At least he didn’t disrespect me.” Ye Shengge bit her lips. “But you said I was trying to ingratiate myself to him.”
Ji Shiting was stunned, but he couldn’t deny it.
He had indeed said that in a fit of anger.
“I didn’t mean what I said.” He kissed her eyes. “I apologize, okay?”
“Not only that, but sometimes, I’ll even leave him hanging and make him think he can get me. That way, he’ll give in to some minor details,” Ye Shengge said as she stared at him. “Actually, I planned to do the same for York. At least I’ll have some leeway and won’t reject him completely.”
Ji Shiting’s eyes widened, his eyes as dark as an endless abyss.
