Addicted to My Cutie and Sweetie

Chapter 462: A Battle Between Experts, Who Will the Deer Die By? (8)

"..." Ji Weitian was called out, momentarily startled.

Although she was not good at socializing, she was not so bad that she couldn’t recognize people she knew.

But the person in front of her, no matter how she looked, she couldn’t recall ever having seen him.

Especially the sinister aura exuding from him seemed innate.

A completely unfamiliar person suddenly stopping her and accurately calling out her surname

made Ji Weitian somewhat surprised, inevitably prompting her to look up at him.

Realizing that his behavior had been abrupt, he took off his sunglasses and extended his hand for a frank introduction.

"Lu Jing, Executive President of Re Group."

"..."

She might not know Lu Jing, but Ji Weitian was all too familiar with the Re Group.

It was currently the biggest competitor to Qin Technology Group.

More importantly, Ji Weitian had almost fallen into Re Group’s trap because she had let her guard down.

Zhao Zhao, that despicable person, first joined forces with Qian Min to set a trap for her, causing her to be mistakenly thought of as the one who betrayed the lab.

Then he collaborated with Luo Xinyan to target the lab’s projects several times, aiming to disrupt Qin Technology Group’s new product launch event.

A company that resorted to despicable means to steal experimental results from peers certainly wouldn’t have a virtuous leader.

Even without knowing Lu Jing, Ji Weitian’s impression of him was already extremely poor.

Now taking another look at the man in front of her...

Narrow, peach-blossom eyes, with the corners slightly lifted, deep brown irises carrying a nefarious glint.

A prominent nose.

Lips always curled in a smile that wasn’t quite a smile.

Paired with a handsome and upright stature...

If one were to ignore that sinister air about him, Lu Jing was almost as attractive as Qin Nanyu, at the very least, a rare handsome man.

Unfortunately, character is everything.

In Ji Weitian’s heart, if one’s character was flawed, no amount of good looks could compensate.

Moreover, this man had a bewitching energy.

He exuded an indescribable presence all over, especially those narrow, peach-blossom eyes that seemed capable of soul-snatching.

Just a single glance from him could make one unconsciously tense, feeling unease all over.

She stood in place, staring at Lu Jing’s hand, unresponsive.

Lu Jing didn’t seem to mind, casually retracting his hand, slipping it into his pocket, and took the initiative to explain.

"I know Miss Ji might not have a favorable impression of me, but I am sincerely here to apologize today. Zhao Zhao’s actions do not represent the whole Re Group. The development of Re Group to its current scale depends on a strong scientific research team. As the Executive President of the group, and personally, I deeply respect the labor outcomes of industry researchers."

Seeing Ji Weitian look up at him, she noticed the smile at the corner of Lu Jing’s mouth had disappeared without her knowing when, and his eyes had become very serious and earnest.

Ji Weitian couldn’t see any signs of acting on his face; if it was an act, his acting skills were too impressive.

"This has nothing to do with me." Ji Weitian didn’t want to waste time dwelling on the past and intended to leave after a brief response.

Just as she took a step, she was stopped again by Lu Jing.

"Miss Ji, could I bother you for a little more of your time? About Zhao Zhao, I think it’s necessary to explain more to you."

"Sorry, but my daughter is out of school, and I need to pick her up from kindergarten."

Ji Weitian replied, not exactly politely.

She had thought that this would get Lu Jing to back off, but to her surprise, the next second, he suddenly opened the car door.

"Get in, I’ll take you to the kindergarten."
