Regarding Zhang Mingjie’s question, I smiled without saying a word and took a sip of the juice, neither admitting nor denying it. Mo Fei knew that I was deliberately making them misunderstand it, but she could not help but blush and turn to look at the night scene outside the window. This expression undoubtedly broadened other people’s imagination.
Liu Xiaosheng’s face became even more ugly. Even though he has heard Zhang Mingjie talk about my relationship with Mo Fei, there was still room for fantasy. But our ‘silent approval’ completely destroyed his hope. How could he not be angry?
Everything was proceeding steadily according to my plan. If young master Liu still didn’t want to give up chasing Mo Fei, then the only solution he had now was to ‘expose’ me.
“How can it be?” Zhang Mingjie was a playboy. Even if he has given up chasing Mo Fei, the jealousy on his face was still very obvious.
It was actually quite understandable why he would feel that way. After all, who didn’t covet Mo Fei’s beauty, talent, and family’s wealth?
Although Liu Xiaosheng was smiling, the corners of his eyes and mouth were twitching uncontrollably, “How can it be? Mingjie, didn’t you say that Mr. Chu is dating a lady named Cheng from your company?” As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes fixed on Mo Fei.
Mo Fei was calm on the surface, but underneath the table, she gently stepped on my foot with the heel. Obviously, she didn’t know how to deal with such a problem. In her own words, she just came here to make fools of those two young masters.
I smiled bitterly inside. ‘Do women like to step on men’s feet nowadays?!’
“Oh? A big shot like young master Liu also cares about the things that happened around nobody like me? Hehe, I’m flattered. I am just a small employee in Fengchang Corporate Group. I didn’t expect young master Liu would be interested in my business.”
Liu Xiaosheng’s expression froze for a moment. My words could be interpreted in two different ways, and he didn’t know how to respond to it at all.
To interpret it in a less serious way, it was to question why young master Liu would be interested in gossip about someone’s personal affair. No matter how he responded, his response would undoubtedly ruin his image of an elegant young master. But if he interpreted it in a serious way, he would know that I was also questioning why he would be interested in the private life of an employee of Fengchang Corporate Group. You have to know that, as a member of the general operation team, although I had a low position, I knew almost all the business secrets of the investment department. . .
Liu Xiaosheng was not an ordinary person. However, although he had realized that everything I said was aiming at his weakness, it was still too late. As I had a head start on the conversation, he was destined to be led by the nose by me.
A cold light full of surprise and anger flashed in his eyes, but his expression was calm and calm, and he chuckled naturally: “I also heard about it accidentally while chatting with young master Zhang. . .”
I smiled lightly without saying anything and used my leg to bump Mo Fei’s leg lightly. Mo Fei immediately reacted and asked curiously, “Young Master Liu, you just said that you have heard some interesting gossip and you’d like to share it with me. I don’t know what it is?”
The faces of Liu Xiaosheng and Zhang Mingjie suddenly twitched at the same time. Looking at their expressions, I jokingly said, “Don’t tell me that. . . The interesting gossip young master Liu wanted to share is about my relationship with Miss Cheng? Hahaha…”
Liu Xiaosheng let out hollow laughs after I pointed out what he was actually thinking in his mind, “Mr. Chu is very funny. Haha… No wonder you would be assigned to such an important position by Miss Mo.”
What did being funny have anything to do with Mo Fei assigning me to an important position? The words he said didn’t make any sense. Obviously, he was very nervous.
At this moment, Mo Fei’s mobile phone suddenly rang. After seeing the number, she frowned slightly. She looked at both young masters and then looked at me, “It is uncle Zhang. . .”
Without even looking at the two young masters, I smiled and said: “You can answer it, I guess that vice-chairman Zhang would not be able to join the dinner tonight.”
In a muffled thumping sound, Liu Xiaosheng had accidentally dropped the glass on the carpet. However, I knew that he actually did it deliberately to hide his panic expression on his face. But Zhang Mingjie, who was sitting across the table in front of me, was not as clever as him. He was staring at me with the question ‘how did you know’ written clearly all over his face!
“I’m so sorry.” Liu Xiaosheng apologized to the waiter, who had come over to help.
Mo Fei looked at him with a trace of disdain flashed in her eyes, then she answered the phone, “Hello, Uncle Zhang. . .”
Young master Liu’s face had already turned pale at this point. However, he was still glaring at me angrily. On the contrary, Zhang Mingjie, who had been fooled by me a couple of times in the past, probably sensed that something was right; he was sitting on the seat, fidgeting.
Mo Fei hung up the phone, revealing an expression of admiration to me, “Chu Nan, it is exactly like you said. Uncle Zhang said that he is feeling a little uncomfortable today, and he can’t come over. That’s amazing.”
I smiled complacently, and said, “This is nothing. If I don’t have this kind of ability, how can I be your assistant?”
Mo Fei’s eyes instantly lit up, “You are willing to be my assistant now?”
I was dazed for a second, and then I noticed her ardent gaze. I couldn’t help but feel speechless. ‘ Oh my god, is she still thinking about that promotion? ‘
“What do you mean? Am I not your assistant?’” I hurriedly said. At the same time, my hand quickly reached her thigh and pinched it gently.
Mo Fei frowned her brows slightly in pain, but her face flushed even more. Knowing that I had declined it again, she couldn’t help but wrinkled her little nose, “but it is just temporary. Anyway, I will keep the assistant’s position for you.”
This woman seemed to have forgotten the existence of the two young masters, and the words she said would lead to even more misunderstanding. . . ‘What exactly is she thinking? I thought she had already given up on promoting me to be her assistant.’
Zhang Mingjie’s girlfriend, Shan Shan, didn’t know the hidden purpose of dinner. Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, she smiled at me out of kindness, “Mr. Chu, that is indeed very amazing. Could you tell me how you did it?”
Zhang Mingjie revealed an unpleasant expression. However, before he was able to say anything, I mysteriously said to Shan Shan: “I can predict the future.”
Women always liked mysterious things. Shan Shan couldn’t help but ask with a faint of excitement, “Predict the future? Really? You are not lying to me, are you?”
“I only lie to men, but I never lie to women, especially women who are beautiful and noble like Miss Shan Shan. Haha… This is my secret,” I leaned forward and said in a low voice: “I will only tell you, so please don’t tell other people. . .”
Shan Shan was very curious. She swallowed nervously and quickly nodded, “Mhm, I will not tell anyone.”
“Actually, I have supernatural power, and my power allows me to see the future.”
“Tsk.” Shan Shan rolled her eyes disappointedly, “How can there be any superpowers in the world. Mr. Chu, you are teasing me.”
“You do not believe me?”
“Of course not!”
“But someone will believe it,” I winked at Liu Xiaosheng with a smile, “don’t you think so? Young master Liu.”
Both young masters shuddered slightly as soon as I finished speaking.
“Mr. Chu, who are you exactly?” If Liu Xiaosheng continued to pretend to be confused, then probably I would really start to despise him. He already had enough reasons to be sure that I was here to cause trouble to him.
“Chu Nan, a small employee in Fengchang Corporate Group.”
Looking at the hand that I reached out to him after standing up, Liu Xiaosheng hesitated for a moment, and then reached out his hand with a straight face, “Liu Xiaosheng, from The Liu Corporate Group.”
From the surprised eyes of Zhang Mingjie and Shan Shan, it was not difficult to see that with young master Liu’s family background and status, he probably didn’t shake hands with other people often, let alone a small employee like me.
