Chapter 355: The Loyal Dog Training Method (Third Update)
Le Tong walked into the conference hall with Ji Rui. This wasn’t her first time at such an occasion, so she shouldn’t have been nervous. But when she saw the women sitting in those important seats, a cold sweat formed in her palms.By chance, the little beauty leading them into the venue sweetly guided them, "Mr. Ji, Miss Le, this way please."
The direction the little beauty pointed to was precisely the two seats next to that woman.
Ji Rui didn’t seem the least bit surprised to see that woman here. He walked over and merely nodded slightly at her, as a form of greeting.
Le Tong couldn’t be so impolite, so she smiled at the woman, "Hello, Miss Coco!"
Coco glanced at her coldly, with a half-smile, and let out a snort!
Ji Rui ignored Coco’s blatant sniping at Le Tong and thoughtfully pulled out a chair, gently supporting Le Tong’s waist, gesturing for her to sit down.
Le Tong, feeling flattered, glanced at Ji Rui. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Coco shooting jealous daggers at her and vaguely understood that Ji Rui was intentionally provoking Coco. So she deliberately tilted her face up and flashed Ji Rui a charming, coquettish smile.
"Thank you, Mr. Ji!" Her voice, clear and crisp, had a sweetness that was enough to make Ji Rui willing to serve her a thousand times over, just by hearing it.
Ji Rui didn’t think much of it; his action of pulling out the chair for her was purely out of a natural instinct to be considerate. Although he knew Le Tong’s straightforward and sharp personality gradually stimulated his faithful dog-like potential, he had no complaints about it. In fact, he felt that if he could make her a little more comfortable, he would feel eased as well.
He could swear to the heavens that his kindness to Le Tong wasn’t meant to provoke Coco.
It was just that when he saw Le Tong’s sweet and charming smile, and heard her obedient and lovely thank you, his heart practically melted into a puddle.
At first, he was a bit puzzled as to why Le Tong suddenly seemed to undergo a personality change, throwing herself at him.
Only when he saw Coco’s face twisted with the desire to kill Le Tong did he understand why Le Tong suddenly transformed from a tough girl into a sweet goddess who could enchant everyone!
Indeed, never offend a woman!
Especially the woman beside him, who smiled so sweetly like an angel!
Amazingly, Ji Rui actually thought Coco appearing here might not be such a bad thing for him!
In Ji Rui’s view, women and men are actually alike in the way that they have a hidden possessiveness towards their admirers. Even though he had clearly rejected someone, he couldn’t tolerate someone becoming another woman’s lackey.
It must be said, President Ji has indeed been mulling over matters of the heart quite thoroughly lately.
At this moment, Le Tong indeed felt like she was bewitched by Ji Rui. She had clearly rejected him, but just the thought of him and the blonde beauty’s engagement, coupled with the cold shoulder from the blonde beauty earlier, made her feel quite uncomfortable.
Thus, she utilized Ji Rui’s kindness to create all sorts of illusions of familiarity and even romantic ambiguity with President Ji, feeling a thrill as she saw Coco’s beautiful face twisted with rage!
Le Tong sat down and elegantly took a sip of tea from her cup.
Ji Rui, whose gaze never left her, caught a faintly familiar shadow from her upturned lips and half-curved eyes.
Tsk!
No wonder that Little Demon King inherited the skill to turn from angel to little demon in a second; it must be genetic from this woman beside him?!
Thinking of this, Ji Rui didn’t get angry; instead, he couldn’t help but smile, feeling quite pleased as he leaned close to Le Tong’s ear and whispered softly.
"Fox, tuck away that smug smile of yours, you’re exposed!"
His move, which could seem extremely provocative to others, was half to fulfill Le Tong’s wish of continuing to provoke Coco, and half out of a genuine desire to tease Le Tong.
There was a stir among those present at the conference, as no one had ever seen the cold and taciturn President Ji be so attentive to a woman before, and now he was openly whispering sweet nothings. Could it be that the little secretary by his side was about to become Mrs. Ji soon?
Le Tong didn’t expect the usually stiff and expressionless man to openly tease, no, she should say, flirt with her like this!
She secretly ground her teeth, and turned her face slightly to show Ji Rui an incredibly innocent and pure smile, "Mr. Ji, your cold prince image is ruined!"
Ji Rui straightened up, leisurely took a sip of his tea, "I don’t mind!"
After all, he never intended to create any particular image for himself; he always just did what he wanted to do.
He didn’t care how others saw him.
Right now, he just wanted to pamper her well. Since she wanted to provoke Coco, he would help her. What others said or thought, what did that have to do with him?
Of course, he wouldn’t tell Le Tong that Coco’s role in today’s meeting was quite significant.
Whether Ji Rui could smoothly become the chairman of this association today, Coco’s vote was quite crucial.
He also wouldn’t tell her that because of Coco’s sudden involvement, he hadn’t slept a minute since he got home last night, spending the whole night discussing foolproof plans with Yang Sheng, and early this morning, the two of them had been tirelessly moving among the various members, constantly persuading them, offering a pile of promises in exchange for their vote in favor today.
If not for Coco’s sudden involvement, Ji Rui would have been a sure candidate.
Coco, watching the two flirting openly and showing affection, couldn’t help but clench her fists tightly. The tip of the pen in her hand pierced her palm hard, but she didn’t even feel it.
She almost overturned the table in rage!
Yesterday, she was already suffocated with anger from that little brat, and after returning to the hotel, her rage turned into a desire for revenge. She immediately called her dad, asking him to find a way to strike at Ji Rui.
Her dad was indeed efficient; within just a few hours, he found out about Ji Rui’s important upcoming events and conveniently got her an important seat on the board.
The satisfaction she felt, thinking about how Ji Rui, that man, would have to obediently come over and beg her this time?
She waited in the hotel, waited all night, and she didn’t see even the shadow of Ji Rui, let alone get a single call!
Fine, if you’re unkind, don’t blame me for being unrighteous!
Coco indeed planned to give Ji Rui a hard blow face to face today!
But who knew, before she could reveal her sharp weapon, she was first dazzled and tormented by the public display of affection by Ji Rui and Le Tong!
