Chapter 210: My intestines are full of regret
Because his back was to his secretary, he couldn't see the secretary's intriguing look.
As soon as he entered the elevator, Ji Tingxiao took out his phone and his fingers flew across the screen: "Yusheng, I saw your drawer was open, so I closed it because I was afraid you would lose something."
He never expected that even though he had disguised himself so well today, his secretary would still recognize him.
To dispel any suspicion about himself, he immediately took off his mask.
After sending it, he stared intently at the screen, fine beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.
He sent the message for a while, but still didn't receive a reply from Luo Yusheng.
This made Ji Tingxiao, who was already feeling guilty, even more nervous.
Could Luo Yusheng be starting to doubt me?!
Out of fear, he ignored what the person on the other end was doing and made a call directly.
beep...beep...
Meanwhile, abroad, Luo Yusheng sat by the window, the glass window behind her offering a panoramic view of the outside world.
She looked at her ringing phone, her smile deepening.
Just as I expected, Ji Tingxiao couldn't hold back any longer and was about to take action so quickly.
"Sheng Sheng, did you see my message?"
As soon as the call connected, Ji Tingxiao couldn't wait to ask, his voice trembling slightly.
"It's nothing, I should thank you. I'm currently abroad. Do you need me to bring you something?"
Ji Tingxiao unconsciously gripped his phone tighter, his heart suddenly racing, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up in a smile.
Is she doing this to thank me for giving her a gift?
Things abroad are not cheap, and he recently took a fancy to an expensive watch.
Thinking of this, Ji Tingxiao was overjoyed.
But to avoid seeming too deliberate, she first pretended to decline, saying, "No need, no need, just have fun abroad and don't worry about these things."
But as soon as the words were spoken, a sense of resentment inexplicably welled up inside.
After hesitating for a while, I casually said, "But if you really want to wear it, that limited edition watch from Quanjie is quite nice; I've always liked it."
However, there was a hint of caution in those words.
The next second, he slapped his forehead hard.
What if Luo Yusheng thinks I'm materialistic?
Luo Yusheng on the other end of the phone clearly heard the noise, her brows furrowed slightly, but she still replied, "Okay, I'll bring it to you as soon as I see it."
She couldn't help but complain as soon as she hung up the phone.
"To be polite, I actually made a request."
But it's not surprising. Judging from Ji Tingxiao's reaction, he must have misunderstood that she was going to give it to him directly.
If Luo Yusheng hadn't specifically instructed her secretary before leaving the country, her entire workstation would probably have been turned upside down.
Although she didn't put any valuables inside, Ji Tingxiao's behavior was extremely despicable.
It seems we need to speed up the investigation.
……
Time flies. On the day Luo Yusheng returned to China, she was carrying an exquisite watch box.
As soon as he entered the office, Ji Tingxiao saw her at a glance.
His gaze involuntarily shifted to the box in her hand, and he was so excited that he almost stood up from his chair.
"Sheng Sheng, you're finally back!"
He rushed over to her and offered to help her take the bag off her shoulder, showing great consideration.
This scene warmed the hearts of many.
Luo Yusheng handed him the box with a faint smile on her face: "I spent a long time choosing the watch you wanted."
Ji Tingxiao was flattered and accepted the gift with both hands, thanking her repeatedly: "Sheng Sheng, I was just saying it casually, you're so thoughtful!"
The sound was so loud that everyone in the office could hear it, and colleagues all turned to look at it with curiosity.
Even so, he still deftly disassembled the watch, revealing its inner workings.
"This watch doesn't look cheap."
"To be honest, Luo Yusheng is quite generous!"
"I'm so envious!"
But before Ji Tingxiao could bask in his joy for long, Luo Yusheng's next words froze him in place.
"You're welcome, just transfer the money to me."
This watch isn't cheap. Although she has a lot of money, she's not stupid; she wouldn't give it away for free.
Luo Yusheng spoke casually, as if she were talking about something perfectly ordinary.
Ji Tingxiao's smile froze instantly, his face turning pale and then red.
He thought this was a thank-you gift from Luo Yusheng, but he never expected that she was just helping him with the purchase.
Ji Tingxiao felt a huge sense of loss in his heart.
But if he refused in front of so many colleagues, he would lose face big time.
Ji Tingxiao smiled awkwardly, then pretended to be generous: "Of course, I'll transfer it to you in a bit."
Luo Yusheng nodded and returned to her workstation without paying him any attention.
My colleagues had never seen such a nice watch before, and they all gathered around to look at it.
"As expected of the whole world, the workmanship is excellent."
"Tingxiao, you've struck it rich! You bought such an expensive watch."
"I wish I could have that too, I'm so envious."
Ji Tingxiao overheard his colleagues' words, which stirred his vanity, but also filled him with immense heartache.
Looking at the watch on my wrist that I had longed for, I felt no joy at all.
After a while, Ji Tingxiao reluctantly transferred the money to Luo Yusheng, adding, "Thanks for your help. I'll treat you to a meal next time."
After sending it, he began to regret it, thinking that he shouldn't have asked for it in the first place.
That's terrible; most of my savings from the past six months have been gone.
Luo Yusheng quickly replied, "Sure, when I have time."
Upon seeing the message, Ji Tingxiao was filled with deep regret.
Now, not only did he spend the money on the watch, but he also had to treat Luo Yusheng to a meal.
You should know that every time Ji Tingxiao invited her to dinner before, in order not to lose face, he could only pretend to be rich and go to five-star restaurants.
On the other side, Wu Min came over.
"Sister Luo, why didn't you tell me you were going abroad?"
"If I had known you were going, I would have asked you to bring me some things."
She looked very distressed, which made Luo Yusheng feel disgusted.
Putting aside the question of why I should tell her when I go abroad, what obligation do I have to bring her things?
"I went because I wanted to."
Luo Yusheng gave a casual reply, which drew envy from others.
"I envy you so much, I've never been abroad."
Wu Min's gaze fell on the designer handbag on the table: "Sister Luo, if you have any handbags you don't like, could you sell them to me secondhand?"
Luo Yusheng increasingly felt that she lacked boundaries, so she simply shook her head, dismissing the idea.
"Sister Luo, there are still some things I don't understand about the project. Can I ask you about them?"
Luo Yusheng had clearly shown that she didn't want to talk to her, but Wu Min acted as if she didn't see it.
Now that you have this project in your hands, you should take it seriously.
"I'm busy right now, please find someone else."
After speaking, Luo Yusheng put on her headphones to shut out the outside world.
