Ye Shengge nodded and said, “I still hope you won’t wait for me.”
“I didn’t say I was waiting for you.” The man raised his eyebrows. “Are you being delusional?”
Ye Shengge was rendered speechless.
If it weren’t for that… Why did that man look so happy? She hadn’t seen that smile on his face in a long time.
Ye Shengge’s heart ached, but she had to break his hope.
“I’m serious.” Ye Shengge’s tone became firm. “Don’t think too simply about the treatment. If I can’t completely fuse with her, all the stimulation will be wasted. The second personality’s personality is still very unstable… This is the risk Song Ruxu told me about.”
Ji Shiting looked at her and stopped smiling.
“I understand.” He shot her a glance. “You don’t have to worry that I’ll continue to pester you.”
Ye Shengge bit her lips and didn’t say anything.
“You can leave now.” Ji Shiting thought for a bit and smiled. “If I meet a woman that makes me interested, I’ll definitely give myself a chance. You don’t have to worry about me being tied down by you.”
The man sounded calm and confident, but Ye Shengge was still skeptical.
However, she could only nod and say, “Okay, then… Goodbye.”
She then stood up and walked out of the office.
Ji Shiting stood up and walked to her door.
Before Ye Shengge walked out, she couldn’t help looking back at him. The man’s eyes were dark, and he still looked calm. He wasn’t as happy and surprised as he had been during dinner, but… he didn’t seem sad or reluctant.
“Be careful on the way,” he said.
She was polite and distant.
Ye Shengge couldn’t figure out his attitude at all. Her heart was in a mess, so she could only look down and walk to the elevator.
Ji Shiting watched her leave and curled his lips.
…
Shang Tianyi and Lin Qi were still waiting for her downstairs. Ye Shengge was already a household name now, so they couldn’t let her in alone.
She was still in a daze when she got in. She didn’t know what Ji Shiting was thinking, but she felt that he wouldn’t give up so easily. However, the man had already said everything.
I hope… he really gives up, she thought bitterly.
She looked up and saw Shang Tianyi and Lin Qi staring at her.
“I was too tired. I slept at his place, and nothing happened. Nothing changed. He promised that T.S. Corporation’s film project would be prioritized by the studio.” Ye Shengge knew what they were asking, so she said it out loud.
“Does that mean Mr. Ji agreed to your request but didn’t touch you?” Shang Tianyi raised his eyebrows in disbelief. “Is there such a good thing?”
“Do you think I’m going to sell myself?” Ye Shengge gritted her teeth.
“Why else would he ask you to talk face to face?” Shang Tianyi clicked his tongue. “Forget it. It’s good that he agreed. I don’t have to be mad at Mu Yanhuai anymore!”
“Sister Shengge, haven’t you gotten back together with Mr. Ji?” Lin Qi refused to give up.
“No,” Ye Shengge said. “We won’t meet again in the future.”
She would just run again, she thought.
