Wei Xuan covered her mouth and laughed, teasing, "Doctor Lu, you could do it too! Quickly find a girlfriend and you can get back at Doctor Jiang ."
"Hmph, I disdain doing such things." Lu Xize snorted lightly, turning his head away with disdain.
"Doctor Lu, could it be that you can’t find a girlfriend?"
"Are you kidding? How could someone as handsome and charming as me, who looks dashing, not find a girlfriend? The girls chasing me could line up out of our Nancheng, alright? It’s just that I don’t want to, I’ve got high standards and nothing can be done about it. Up till now, not a single girl has caught my eye, sigh! Sometimes I feel like I should reflect on myself, with such high standards, the Lu family line might end with me." Lu Xize curled his lips dismissively, and by the end of his speech, he seemed to pity himself a little.
Wei Xuan was quite speechless at this. After working here for half a month and witnessing Jiang Baizhou’s aloofness and inaccessibility, Lu Xize’s level of narcissism had really taught her something.
"Doctor Lu, Doctor Jiang is right."
"Narcissism is an illness, and you’re a psychiatrist! If you can’t properly diagnose yourself, I could help you make an appointment with Doctor Jiang, let him prescribe some medication or give you some counseling." Wei Xuan scratched her nose, her voice growing softer and softer.
But Lu Xize wasn’t deaf, he heard her clear as day, and immediately shot back a sharp glance: "Hey, you little brat, when Old Jiang was about to fire you, who spoke up for you? Who taught you the things you didn’t know? And now you’re teaming up with Jiang Baizhou to mess with me? Believe it or not, I’ll fire you?"
"No, no, no, my bad, Doctor Lu, you’re the most handsome, you’re the best." As soon as Wei Xuan heard that, she immediately and obediently admitted defeat.
Downstairs, while Lu Xize was singing his own praises, upstairs Jiang Baizhou pulled Cen Jin into the office and turned to embrace her, lowering his head to capture her lips.
Cen Jin froze, stunned by the sudden kiss, and only came back to her senses after his cool lips left hers, her grip on his clothes relaxing a bit. She looked up at him with her bright, clear eyes: "You... what are you doing?"
Jiang Baizhou raised an eyebrow slightly, but his face remained calm, "What do you think I’m doing?"
"I have a bit of data to organize, give me ten minutes." Seeing her speechless appearance, Jiang Baizhou restrained the smile threatening to break out on his face, speaking in a tone that was slightly more gentle, yet still tinged with coolness.
"Okay, I’m hungry, hurry up." Cen Jin released his clothes, patting her stomach and nodding.
Jiang Baizhou narrowed his eyes, looking at her with interest, "So... are you acting cute with me?"
Cen Jin was taken aback, her earlier words had been purely instinctive, with no deliberate intent or thought in that direction.
When he directly pointed it out, Cen Jin’s face instantly flushed red, and she quickly waved her hand, "No, I just wanted to..."
"Hmm, no need to explain, I understand." Jiang Baizhou deliberately elongated his words, cutting her off, his raised eyebrows making him look even more pleased with himself as he turned and walked to his desk, "In that case, I’ll speed up."
Understand my foot, if he really understood, would he use such a tone and expression? Clearly he’s enjoying it while teasing and mocking her.
