Chapter 2906: Absent from work
Translator: 549690339She quickly retracted her gaze and mumbled,””You knew about it? Then … Does that mean that Shen Feng and Wenxin know about it as well?”
Thinking about how she had lied to the three of them like a fool last night, but no one had exposed her, she really felt a little ashamed.
“It’s good that you’re fine. Shen Feng wouldn’t care about other things. ” Cheng Ningyuan could see her awkwardness and gently comforted her once more.
With that, he stared at the traffic in the distance and continued to drive in the direction of the Ji group’s building.
PEI GE, however, could not let go of this. She felt even more guilty toward Shen Feng as she looked at the traffic outside with a frown.
!!“I’m already here. Don’t you want to go to work?” About 20 minutes later, Cheng ning parked his car in front of the Ji group’s building.
Cheng Ningyuan’s tone was still cold when he saw her looking out of the window in a daze, but he felt a little more pity for her when he saw her frown.
Hence, he turned to look at her, who was looking out of the window, and said,””Pei Pei! What are you thinking about?”
As his voice had suddenly gone up by several decibels, PEI GE was able to hear it clearly and quickly replied,””Oh, we’ve arrived, haven’t we?”
She hurriedly put down her hand that was hanging by the window and went to unbuckle her seat belt.
Cheng Ningyuan reached out to stop her, and she looked at him in confusion.””What’s wrong? Ning Yuan? Is there anything else?”
“If you feel stressed, don’t force yourself. I’ll take you somewhere.” With that, he released her hand and started the car again.
“Eh? “Ningyuan … I …” By the time she reacted, the man had already turned around.
As she looked at the Ji group’s building in the rearview mirror, which was getting further and further away, she felt a sense of joy from successfully escaping. However, she knew that this was not the right way to escape. No matter what, solving the problem was the most important thing.
Cheng Ningyuan continued to drive, his eyes glistening. Seeing her worried look, he said,””You don’t have your phone with you, so no one will be able to find you. It’s fine if you still want to return to the Ji group tomorrow. I’ll find a way to apply for leave for you. It won’t be considered as you skipping work.”
PEI GE was surprised. ‘Ning Yuan, you really understand me. Thank you. However, running away isn’t a solution. I know that I have to face it in the end. ”
“Who said I’m running away? This was to face it calmly. Don’t act rashly before you understand the situation. Think of a foolproof plan first, and then you’ll be able to solve the problem. ” Cheng Ningyuan said with certainty.
PEI GE felt a warm current flowing through her heart as she looked at Cheng Ningyuan on her left with misty eyes.””Ning Yuan, where do you plan to take me? We’ve already driven so far out of the city.
He did not reply immediately. Instead, he took out his phone to send a message while driving and then gave her a mysterious smile. “It’s not far away. You’ll know when you get there. ”
She shrugged her shoulders and smiled at the scenery outside.
In the Ji group’s building, Ji Ziming, who had arrived early in the morning, was waiting for PEI GE to come to work. However, when he looked at the time on his watch uneasily, she was still nowhere to be seen.
He was about to pick up his phone to call her when he remembered that her phone was in his pocket.
The moment she took it out, a text message came in. It was from Cheng Ningyuan.”PEI GE is on leave today.”
He glared at the simple Chinese characters on the screen with his sharp brows furrowed.””What? Leave? Who gave you permission?”
With that, he immediately used his phone to look for Cheng Ningyuan’s contact information from PEI GE’s phone that he had saved last night and dialed it.
However, the call was hung up by Cheng Ningyuan after a few rings.
He angrily threw his phone on the table.””Alright, PEI GE. You actually dare to skip work, and with another man at that! It seems that Shen Feng alone can’t satisfy you?”
Just as he was in a fit of anger, Liu Lina and black knocked on the door to his office.
Liu Lina’s heart skipped a beat when she saw Ji Ziming’s face as black as charcoal. When she walked over earlier, she saw that PEI GE was not at her seat, so she guessed that she must have something to do with this.
But now that ah hei had arrived, she could only brace herself and try her luck. Although he knew that this wasn’t the right time, the arrow had already been nocked and he had no choice but to fire.
When he heard the knock and saw that it was Liu Lina, he reined in his emotions and, with a cold expression, asked,””What is it?”
Liu Lina’s face was full of smiles as she looked at black and then at Ji Ziming.””Oh, CEO Ji, I called assistant PEI, but he didn’t pick up, so I took the liberty to come up and look for you. Here’s the thing, I would like to introduce a business deal to the company. Mr. Paul is already in the meeting room next door. Are you free now? Because I had made an appointment with pa PEI first, but …”
Liu Lina looked suspiciously at PEI GE’s empty office desk.
Seeing that Liu Lina was doing business this time, Ji Ziming’s tone became much gentler. He straightened his clothes and said,””Go to the conference room next door and sit for a while. I’ll be there soon.”
“Alright, President Ji.” Liu Lina was overjoyed when she heard that. She then walked toward the meeting room while swaying her sexy waist.
Seeing that Liu Lina had already left, Ji Ziming bit his lower lip without saying a word. His deep-set eyes were still on the phone on the table.
“Forget it. Since that guy dared to take the initiative to send me a message, he won’t dare to do anything to her. In any case, he won’t be able to get her back in a short time. Let’s talk about it after we’re done with this case.” Ji Ziming narrowed his eyes slightly. He did not let his impulse get to his head. After muttering this to himself, he put his phone in his pocket and walked out of the office.
In the car, she actually fell asleep from the jolting.
Cheng Ningyuan could not bear to wake her up and was afraid that Ji Ziming would call again, so he muted his phone.
Cheng Ningyuan was reminded of his days in Japan when he saw her sleeping soundly with her head tilted to the side. He sniffled and pulled a thin blanket from the back seat to cover her. He then got out of the car quietly and stared at the calm sea below the cliff with his back to the car.
Cheng Ningyuan was wearing a white knitted sweater and a pair of casual light brown suit pants. He was afraid of the high UV rays by the sea, so he took a pair of sunglasses from the car and put them on. From a distance, he looked really sunny and handsome.
