Xiangyang Village, located in a neighboring city, is nestled against the mountains and beside the water, and is situated upwind of the city. With its beautiful scenery and fresh air, it has become a popular choice for developers to build resorts. Furthermore, because Xiangyang Village has natural hot springs, the resorts are promoted as such.

This project has been underway for several years and is now in the trial operation phase. Construction on and around the mountain has been completed, and it is just waiting for Ji Jingshen's approval to officially open for business.

Lin Jingye, the person in charge of the resort, followed Ji Jingshen closely, personally introducing the various projects and industries that had been developed based on the resort.

His daughter, Lin Wanqing, dressed in a smart little suit, followed behind a group of people, secretly observing Ji Jingshen's back, her heart pounding.

Xiangyang Village was established with investment from the Ji family. After the trial operation, she came here under the guise of an internship to work in the human resources department. Today was supposed to be Ji Jingshen's inspection day. Originally, there was no need for the human resources department, but she begged her father to give her the opportunity to accompany him on the inspection.

For no other reason than that she wanted to meet the legendary president of the Ji Group.

She was indeed stunningly beautiful, with an air of nobility and aloofness that made her impossible to ignore, even without uttering a word.

At that moment, she was right behind him, and she could smell the perfume on him.

His heart was pounding, and he was thinking about how to strike up a conversation in a natural way.

"President Ji." Shen Chen had been looking around, and when he saw the figure in front of him, he immediately squeezed next to Ji Jingshen and glanced ahead before Lin Jingye could speak.

Ji Jingshen frowned, turned his head, and saw Song Qianyi walking towards them.

His sword-like eyebrows furrowed even more tightly.

Turning to look at Shen Chen again, Shen Chen quickly shook his head and said, "It has nothing to do with me."

Ji Jingshen's lips twitched.

Who believes?

Song Qianyi approached, but hesitated.

She could tell at a glance that the people around Ji Jingshen were dressed formally, and that they were discussing serious matters, while she needed to explain a private matter. It didn't seem appropriate to go over at this time.

Lin Jingye also noticed something unusual, but he didn't show it. Instead, he observed Ji Jingshen's behavior.

Ji Jingshen pursed his lips. Seeing Song Qianyi standing still and not daring to come over, the clouds in his heart that had eased slightly gathered again.

She came to see him for several days in a row, which shows her sincerity.

They've chased us all the way to Xiangyang Village, why don't you come over here?

Do we still need him to go there?

No way!

After a few moments of stalemate, seeing that Song Qianyi really had no intention of stepping forward, Ji Jingshen withdrew his gaze and gestured for Lin Jingye to continue.

Lin Wanqing couldn't see Ji Jingshen's expression, but she did see Song Qianyi staring at her expectantly. A woman's keen senses made her feel hostile towards this woman she was meeting for the first time.

"Assistant Shen, does that woman know you? Why is she following us?" Lin Wanqing approached Shen Chen, subtly probing him.

The question was asked in a low voice, just loud enough for the group to hear.

Ji Jingshen also stopped and turned around to look at Song Qianyi.

Shen Chen didn't dare to speak carelessly, and only vaguely said, "President Ji should know him, right?"

Ji Jingshen didn't reply, he just looked at Song Qianyi.

All eyes turned to her, and Song Qianyi had no choice but to bite the bullet and go up to her: "What a coincidence."

"Unfortunately, they've been following us the whole way." Ji Jingshen lowered his head slightly. "Do you have something to say?"

Song Qianyi opened her mouth, looked at Lin Jingye, then at Lin Wanqing, and shook her head.

There are too many outsiders here; it's not a suitable place to discuss private matters.

"I'll talk to you when you're done with your work."

"Too busy to finish." Ji Jingshen squeezed out three words through gritted teeth, then turned and left.

He was tall and strong, and before the others could react, he had already walked a distance away.

Lin Jingye jogged after him: "President Ji, is that your friend?"

"Unfamiliar."

Lin Jingye, however, had his own ulterior motives.

The two people just spoke as if they were not strangers, and Ji Jingshen's emotions were clearly affected by that young lady. That young lady must be extraordinary.

With a quick glance, he raised his voice and said, "Wanqing, this young lady is Mr. Ji's friend. Please treat her well."

Seeing that Ji Jingshen didn't say anything, Song Qianyi pursed her lips, turned around and sat down on the bench.

Judging from his attitude, he probably doesn't want to listen to her at all.

But she had to explain it clearly.

Lost in thought, a shadow fell over me, and a hand reached out.

Song Qianyi looked up, puzzled.

"Hello, I am Lin Wanqing. Manager Lin, who is in charge of the Xiangyang Village project, is my father." Lin Wanqing withdrew her hand, sat down next to Song Qianyi, and raised her chin slightly, feeling superior to herself.

"Hello, Song Qianyi."

Song Qianyi gave a brief response, not wanting to say anything more.

The atmosphere was stagnant.

The sun overhead was quite strong, and the woman beside him showed no sign of speaking.

Song Qianyi couldn't help but turn to look at Lin Wanqing.

The woman who had been smiling sweetly just moments before now had a cold and stern expression, her reluctance practically written all over her face.

With a woman's intuition, she sensed that Lin Wanqing was hostile towards her.

I just don't know where it started.

"Does Miss Song know our CEO Ji?" Lin Wanqing asked directly.

Song Qianyi nodded, "So we can say we know each other."

She tilted her head: "Miss Lin seems very curious about my relationship with President Ji."

Lin Wanqing looked Song Qianyi up and down with her eyes. "President Ji's identity is extraordinary. Women are eager to get close to him. Even a glance from afar counts as knowing him. I'm just curious about what kind of acquaintance Miss Song has. It would be bad if someone were to use the name of President Ji's friend to deceive people."

Even with Song Qianyi's good temper, she couldn't keep up the smile on her face.

Lin Wanqing was practically pointing her finger at Song Qianyi and calling her a liar.

Song Qianyi put away her polite smile. "Since Miss Lin is so curious, why don't you just ask Ji Jingshen who I am?"

Lin Wanqing certainly wouldn't dare; she had no status or qualifications, so she could only find ways to make Song Qianyi unhappy here.

She was speechless, glaring at Song Qianyi, then suddenly sneered: "Don't blame me for asking, after all, there are too many people like Miss Song, so I have to ask a few more questions."

Song Qianyi also sneered, looking down at her fingertips, and said casually, "President Ji's friendships with those people are a private matter. Miss Lin actually thanks President Ji for his private affairs. What makes you think you can do that?"

His gaze fell on the name tag on Lin Wanqing's chest. "Because you're an employee of this resort?"

He then looked in the direction Ji Jingshen and the others had left: "Is it because your father is in charge of this project?"

"Ms. Lin, these are all business matters. How can you interfere in Mr. Ji's private affairs?"

Lin Wanqing was surprised that Song Qianyi, who seemed quiet, was actually quite eloquent. Her face flushed red for a long time, and she couldn't find any words to refute her.

Suddenly, she smiled gently, "So, you and President Ji can only be friends, because what you see is always just the surface."

She tossed her hair with a smug look on her face: "If I wanted to, I could marry President Ji."

Song Qianyi's eyes suddenly turned cold.

She and Ji Jingshen are not divorced yet, and this woman is already eager to become a mistress?

Or……

Lin Wanqing knew her words had worked, and she curled her lips into a smile: "Otherwise, why do you think I, a person in the HR department, would be running around with them? My marriage to President Ji was just a matter of my dad's word."
