Chapter 223: How Long Can You Last?
Ye Shengge flushed hearing his sarcastic tone .
She opened her mouth and said, “Who was that woman?”
Ji Shiting’s eyes dimmed and he looked amused .
“Are you here to condemn me?” he asked .
Ye Shengge regretted asking that question . She smiled and said, “No, no . I know she’s your subordinate . ”
“Then why are you asking?” Ji Shiting raised his eyebrows . “Are you… jealous?”
“I’m not,” Ye Shengge denied . “I was just trying to change the topic . ”
Ji Shiting gazed at her, his dark eyes unreadable .
Ye Shengge couldn’t help feeling guilty .
“What’s the matter?” Ji Shiting said .
“I’m really here to see you…” Ye Shengge wetted her lips and thought about what to say .
“You’ve already seen me . ” The man picked up his coffee cup and smiled . “I have a meeting in three minutes . ”
What it meant was that she could leave if there was nothing else .
Ye Shengge’s eyelashes fluttered, and she finally said, “Shiting, we’re still husband and wife, right?”
“Mm . ” Ji Shiting looked calm . “I’ll fulfill my duty . ”
“That’s right . ” Ye Shengge nodded . “As a couple, we should help each other . So, if you run into any trouble, I’ll do whatever I can to help you . ”
Ji Shiting smiled and said, “There’s no way you can help me if there’s a matter that I’m unable to resolve . ”
Ye Shengge lowered her head dejectedly .
This was why she couldn’t speak to that man . Their social status was just too far apart, and the resources she had were too limited . What she had said about helping each other was just that man helping her .

This meant that she couldn’t repay him for all the help he had given her, and she didn’t give him what he wanted .
It was also because that man’s social status far exceeded hers that she didn’t dare to fall in love with him easily . Otherwise, if Ji Shiting met the woman he loved one day and wanted to kick her out, she wouldn’t be able to struggle at all .
In other words, she didn’t have the right to love him .
That made Ye Shengge even more upset . She licked her lips and said, “You’re right . Then … I won’t bother you anymore . ”
Ji Shiting’s eyes narrowed, and he put the coffee cup on the desk .
“What exactly do you want to say?” His voice turned cold .

He knew what the woman was trying to say . The reason why he hadn’t made any moves and watched the public opinion develop to this point was to force her to ask for help .
However, after finally showing up, she now wanted to leave before getting to the point?
“I… done . ” Ye Shengge smiled at him innocently and took a step back . “Um… I’ll return to Qianfan Villa when it’s my rest day . See you then . ”
She then ignored the man’s gloomy face and ran out of the office .
After watching her leave, Ji Shiting adjusted his collar and sneered .
Very well . Let’s see how long you can last .
