After Jason heard her reply, he was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled and said, “Since it is a disease, then please give me a cure as a psychologist, Professor Lu!”
Lu Jia’er had been in contact with Jason many times by this point, and she roughly knew his character. So she gave him a serious suggestion. “Narcissism is a manifestation of internal emptiness. I suggest that you go to see the girl your parents have introduced to you and your conditions might improve!”
As Lu Jia’er stopped talking, she slightly frowned. Due to carelessness, she had disclosed information she had gleaned with her mind-reading ability.
“I didn’t expect Ace to be a big mouth!” Jason complained when he heard her advice.
Jason believed that Jin Xiangdong was to blame, which made Lu Jia’er wonder. But if he bothered to verify later, it would be difficult to justify her knowing.
“I passed your office yesterday, and I accidentally heard your call with your parents, so I know it!” Lu Jia’er had to find an alternative excuse.
After Jason listened, there was a trace of suspicion in his eyes. He was in his office yesterday but he was sure that he could hardly be heard there. Had the door been slightly open?
“I will go ahead and get started on my work!” Lu Jia’er escaped directly so as to avoid having her lies seen through.
Jason fixed his gaze on Lu Jia’er’s back, and he couldn’t help but feel suspicious, so he went straight to Jin Xiangdong’s office, with his briefcase.
“Ace!” Jason placed the briefcase on the table and began speaking to Jin Xiangdong, who was seated on an ergonomic chair.
“During working hours, let’s just talk about business!” Jin Xiangdong thought that Jason would continue to trouble him in relation to the request to stay at his home, so he had to cut him off in advance.
“What I want to talk about is Professor Lu Jia’er!” Jason directly reported his intentions, but after he said this, his gaze landed on the coffee cup to the left of Jin Xiangdong’s left hand. The brand logo on it was familiar.
Upon hearing those words, Jin Xiangdong looked up, “Professor Lu? What happened to her?”
“Have you thoroughly verified her information?” Jason turned his eyes to carefully look at the face of Jin Xiangdong.
“Yes, I have. Is there anything wrong?” said Jin Xiangdong.
“Nothing. I just asked randomly!” Jason replied.
Jason had always been reassured in relation to Jin Xiangdong’s competence. He was not only a super smart and meticulous genius, but also a decisive, powerful leader— the banner of BUA Technology, who was the core of the entire R&D team. A man who could gain his full admiration.
“What do you want to ask?” Jin Xiangdong looked at him. Although Jason was a bit gossipy, he was definitely not the kind of person who would bring something up for no reason.
“Have you already started a relationship with Professor Lu?” Jason knew that he had always trusted the people who worked for him, so he smiled meaningfully.
“Are you interested in Professor Lu?” Jin Xiangdong stared at Jason.
“I don’t dare. I would never pursue my brother’s wife!” Jason laughed.
“The fourth stage of the program…” Jin Xiangdong didn’t want to talk nonsense with him, so he said.
Upon hearing the urge for progress to be made on the program, Jason was like a Monkey King that had applied an incantation of the Gold Hoop by the Monk, and he immediately gave in. “I will get out of here and go to work immediately!”
Jin Xiangdong was using his mouse with his right hand, ready to check emails, when Jason headed for the door, suddenly he turned around and said, “Indirect kissing is not interesting. I recommended direct physical contact. That feels much more exquisite.” With that said, Jason swiftly opened the door and disappeared out of Jin Xiangdong’s sight.
Jin Xiangdong fixed his eyes on the doorway, for a few seconds before he turned his gaze to the coffee cup on the table. The mouth of the cup was marked with a touch of lipstick.
