Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

What?! Pay with myself? Pay, your sister!

Pei Ge glared at Ji Ziming and indignantly grumbled, “Ji Ziming, don’t go overboard!”

“Overboard?” Ji Ziming raised his eyebrows and curled his lips up at Pei Ge’s enraged look before saying, “I’m not as overboard as you are.”

“Yes! I admit that I’m the guilty one here. I shouldn’t have barged into your office and torn someone else’s resignation letter like that. However, it only happened because you told someone to bring my resignation letter over to you!” Pei Ge no longer cared about anything, even the fact that the person opposite her was the top boss.

“Are you saying that it’s my fault?” Ji Ziming laced his fingers together and rested them on the table, not betraying a trace of emotion on his face.

If anyone else saw this, they would simply think that he was handsome past human imagination and that there was a domineering, proud, and elegant air about him.

As for Pei Ge, she only found his look absolutely annoying. She even had the urge to rush up to the man and give him a good beating.

Of course, that was just an unrealizable dream.

“Hmph!” Pei Ge angrily harrumphed. If not because I don’t want to let those spreading rumors about me feel happy over my resignation, do you think this young lady here will want to stay here?! Hmph, hmph, hmph!

“Why? You don’t feel like resigning now?” Ji Ziming softly asked and did not continue teasing Pei Ge when the latter stopped speaking to him anymore due to anger.

“...Yes.” Pei Ge lowered her head and mumbled.

“So you ran over here to tear your resignation letter?” Ji Ziming raised an eyebrow as he continued to ask.

“...Yes. Aye, are you done asking? Anyway, I won’t be resigning anymore. So, CEO Ji, please return my resignation letter to me.” Pei Ge raised her head and looked at Ji Ziming, as though she were the superior here instead of him.

Anyway, she had already thought this through. If Ji Ziming returned the resignation letter to her, then she would continue working in the company. If he did not, then she would not beg this annoying fellow for it! Hmph!

When a certain someone’s attitude did a one-eighty, Ji Ziming narrowed his eyes. Within his eyes, a dark light shone. “I can return your resignation letter to you.”

“Really?” Pei Ge excitedly asked as she looked at Ji Ziming with twinkling eyes.

“You do remember that I transferred you to the CEO Secretariat, right?”

Pei Ge immediately frowned at that.

“Aye! Why must you transfer me over to be your assistant? You already have so many secretaries. You totally don’t need to add me in,” Pei Ge unhappily muttered.

“I admire your abilities. Why? You don’t think that you are competent enough for this job?” With his interlaced fingers, Ji Ziming rested his chin on the back of his hands and gave her a scrutinizing look.

Pei Ge tightly pursed her lips at his words. After struggling inside for quite some time, she asked softly, “Can I not take back my resignation letter without being your secretary?”

“What do you think?” Ji Ziming’s lips curled up into a smile that was not quite a smile while he continued to look at her.

“Alright. I’ll be your secretary, then!” Pei Ge gritted her teeth and stared at Ji Ziming fiercely.

“Alright. You can go back and pack your things. Get a form and fill it in at the HR Department this afternoon and then come report at the CEO Secretariat.” Ji Ziming released his hands from each other and sat up straight.

Suddenly, he seemed like a totally different person from the one who had been teasing Pei Ge moments ago.

“That fast?!” Pei Ge widened her eyes in shock.

“If not?” Ji Ziming flipped open a file and asked without looking at Pei Ge.

“At least, give me some time to prepare my heart.” She blinked her eyes at Ji Ziming, who had his head lowered and was reading a document. With her fists balled up, she positioned them above his head and mimed the action of pummeling the latter.

I’ll bash you up, you annoying fellow! Bash you up!

Of course, she did not dare to really pummel him. She was merely miming the act to satisfy her urge to thrash him.

“Pei Ge, what are you doing right now?”

Ji Ziming’s voice suddenly sounded in Pei Ge’s ears, frightening her. She immediately retracted her fists, and seeing that his head was still lowered, she mumbled, “Nothing.”

“Then, why are you still standing there like a fool?” Ji Ziming raised his head. His gaze contained coldness, as though he had seen Pei Ge’s little stunt just then.

Feeling guilty, she mumbled again, “You haven’t returned my resignation letter to me yet.”

“You can go to the HR Department directly and fill out the employment form again.” Ji Ziming glanced at her calmly and replied.

“Oh, alright.” Pei Ge could only sulkily leave the CEO’s office when she saw that she had no chance of retrieving her resignation letter.

After Pei Ge left, Ji Ziming promptly retracted his gaze from the document in his hand and placed it on the drawer to his side.

Kachak! He opened another drawer and took out an envelope from it.

After unsealing the envelope, he stared at the elegant handwriting on the envelope itself and his expression immediately softened. When he read the reason for resigning that was written in the letter, Ji Ziming could not help his lips from curving upward in amusement.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Ji Ziming put the letter back into that drawer in a composed manner. He then adopted his usual cold and apathetic look, as though all that had happened moments ago were simply a hallucination.

“Come in.”

...

After leaving the CEO’s office, Pei Ge returned to the Planning Department’s office with a bitter expression on her face.

How could she be bothered with all the rumors flying about her right now when all she could think of was, F*ck! This young lady here actually has to work under that annoying fellow from here on! I’m even assigned as his secretary!

“Sigh!” Pei Ge sighed for the thirty-fourth time as she returned to her seat, ignoring all the gazes directed on her.

She stared at her reflection in the computer screen. She herself did not know whether she should just resign and leave the rumors as they were or stay here as Ji Ziming’s secretary.

What she was certain of was that she was not keen on either choice.

“Why do you keep on sighing?” Bi Zheng, who was sitting beside Pei Ge, turned his head over to look at her with a blank look.

Pei Ge lay down on her office desk with her head resting on the keyboard before replying helplessly, “Of course, it’s because I have too many frustrations right now.”

“What happened?” The usually taciturn Bi Zheng actually asked a follow-up question.

“Bi Zheng, do you not look at the company’s internal forum?” Seeing his cluelessness over her plight, she raised her head and pouted.

“Company’s internal forum?” Bi Zheng’s eyebrows moved slightly.

“That’s right. I am now famous in the whole company. All sorts of ugly things about me were posted there.” Pei Ge thought about the forum thread and lightly smirked. “I have already been labeled as a vixen.”

“Hey! Say, have you ever seen a vixen as fleshy as me?” she jokingly asked.

Rather than consoling her, the foolish Bi Zheng observed her carefully and then nodded his head in agreement.

“Hey! You’re too ruthless!”
