Addicted to My Cutie and Sweetie

Chapter 404 Climax! Mother and Son Recognition! (20)

Manager of the Publicity Department of Qin Technology Group, Sun Lele.

Sun Lele was quite young, not even looking thirty.

He had a casual personality, yet he was very steady in his work.

Hearing Ji Weitian’s words, he smiled and responded, "Miss Ji is being modest. With your good looks and great aura, you’ll definitely attract a large fan base once you’re on camera. It’s also a perfect opportunity to show everyone that our research team isn’t just nerds, but also includes handsome men and beautiful women, right?"

People in publicity and public relations sure had a way with words.

In just a few sentences, they could flatter you comfortably, yet also indirectly reject your request.

And you couldn’t even find fault with it.

Seeing that she was about to be rejected, Ji Weitian squeezed out a pitiable expression, trying to cozy up to Sun Lele.

"Manager Sun, even if I don’t go on stage, I’m still a part of the team. However you choose to promote it won’t be affected. But what if I do go on stage and end up speaking poorly because I’m nervous? Wouldn’t that ruin everyone’s hard work... Is there really no room for negotiation? I can draft my part of the presentation in advance, and you can just find someone reliable to read it out."

"This..." Sun Lele still had a troubled look on his face.

Ji Weitian had no choice but to use her trump card.

"Manager Sun, I’ll be honest with you, you’ve probably seen the news from a few days ago. Due to participating in the same program, my relationship with your President Qin seems a bit ambiguous to outsiders. If I make such a conspicuous appearance on stage, I’m worried people might use this to create a buzz and affect the whole conference. So, what do you think about making some adjustments?"

What Ji Weitian said was half for her own sake and half true.

Besides Luo Xinyan watching her every move, she also had to be careful about the Ji Family.

Once someone recognized her as the young lady of the Ji Family and they got dragged into it, things would only get more complicated.

It was safest for her not to show up.

"I understand your concerns, Miss Ji, but I don’t have the authority to make specific adjustments. If you really don’t want to go on stage, you’d better talk to our President Qin in person."

Sun Lele tossed the problem back to Ji Weitian.

This time, he even dragged Qin Nanyu into it.

Without showing any trace of doing so.

Seeing Ji Weitian stunned, Sun Lele took the opportunity to walk away.

Only when he reached a secluded spot did he take out his phone and stealthily send a message to his boss.

Mission accomplished.

While one side celebrated, Ji Weitian fretted about having to go on stage.

She aimlessly plucked a wildflower from the roadside and started to count its petals.

Find Qin Nanyu.

Don’t find Qin Nanyu.

Find Qin Nanyu.

Don’t find Qin Nanyu...

Finally, biting her lip, she stood up from the roadside, clutching the stem that was left, hailed a cab, and headed for Qin Technology.

And then—

She was turned away at the door.

She had rushed over all disheveled, only to not even make it inside the Qin Technology building.

As soon as she arrived, the assistant was already waiting for her downstairs, casually passing on Qin Nanyu’s words: "Miss Ji, the boss said he’s very busy during the day and probably won’t have time to discuss matters with you properly. He asked you to go back to the villa and wait for him. He’ll meet you tonight at the usual place."

After the assistant finished speaking, he looked at her with obvious gossip in his eyes, as if curious about what President Qin’s usual place might be.

Ji Weitian: "..."

She and Qin Nanyu had a clean relationship; there was no "usual place." The so-called usual place he referred to was just the master bedroom in the villa, his room.

How could Ji Weitian say it out loud?

Such a hoodlum!
