Fu Jichen leaned back and sank into the back of the sofa. The fabric of his clothes rubbed against the leather, making a slight rustling sound. He stared at Zhu Yilan with a pair of black eyes, without any emotion, as if he was looking at an inanimate thing, not at all tempted by her beauty.
After a while, he raised the hand that was resting on the armrest of the sofa, put it against his chin, and sneered lowly: "Do you know what you are doing?"
How could someone have a condescending aura even though he was sitting there? The aura emanating from his body was cold, as if he wanted to devour him.
Zhu Yilan met his cold gaze and felt fear and shame.
However, the words had been spoken, and there was absolutely no possibility of taking them back, and besides, they were all her true words. She wanted to be his woman, and she fell for him from the first moment she saw him at the Junshan Group headquarters.
She couldn't control herself more and more and wanted more.
"Mr. Chen, if you give me a chance, I will be more worthy than Shen Jianian." Zhu Yilan's face was white, his lips were trembling slightly, and his eyes were looking at him eagerly.
Men remain indifferent.
Zhu Yilan pursed her red lips, squatted down with her knees touching the ground, knelt beside his legs, raised a hand and climbed up his arm, hoping to get a little mercy.
Fu Jichen stood up suddenly, truly condescending, looking down at the people on the ground: "Zhu Yilan, I remember I warned you last time not to play tricks. Do it again and again and never do it again. You are a smart man and know where my bottom line is. If you show off, If you don’t correct your position, get out of here as soon as possible.”
Every word was like a sharp arrow, shooting straight into his heart. Zhu Yilan shuddered and fell to the ground softly.
Last time... how could she forget that last time she deliberately tampered with a piece of data in the file and handed it over to Shen Jianian for review, and she was sure she couldn't tell. And indeed it is.
Any mistakes in the documents that Shen Jianian handed over to the boss for signature were her responsibility, and the boss would see clearly that she was a fool. She made her wishful thinking, but she didn't expect Fu Jichen to see her method at a glance. After Shen Jia Nian came back from the president's office, he conveyed the boss's intention and asked her to come over.
She walked into the office with apprehension and was beaten by him with cold words.
What did he say that time?
——You are very smart, but it’s a pity that your wisdom is used in the wrong place.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yilan trembled even more violently, and a wave of regret arose from the bottom of his heart, spreading throughout his limbs and bones. She was indeed confused. She was so stimulated by Fu Jichen's love for Shen Jia Nian that she lost her mind and tried to ask for his love.
"Mr. Chen, I was wrong."
Zhu Yilan lost the dignity and calmness he usually maintained in front of others, his eyes were red, and he held back tears.
In front of her admirers, she is just a woman who longs for attention, not the majestic and resolute assistant.
Fu Jichen said coldly: "Get out."
Zhu Yilan shook his head and climbed up from the ground, picked up the piled windbreaker and hugged it in his arms. His exquisite makeup and hair looked like a joke at this moment.

In the restaurant downstairs, Shen Jia Nian finished his midnight snack while petting the cat. The black kitten felt comfortable after being scratched by her and purred.
She touched its head, stood up, carried the bowl and spoon to the kitchen, and stood by the sink. As soon as she turned on the faucet, Zhou Rongzhen heard the sound and came over: "Leave me to wash it, you go and rest."
"After sleeping all day, it's time to move around."
"That's not how it works." Zhou Rongzhen smiled, a little scared, how could she do such a job.
Shen Jia Nian refused to listen to her, so he pumped a pump of dish soap, quickly cleaned the bowl, and rinsed it under water.
Zhou Rongzhen couldn't put her hand in, and stood by the side looking at her dumbfounded. Suddenly she felt itchy on her legs. She looked down and saw that Briquettes slipped into the kitchen and squatted next to Shen Jianian's slippers, with her long furry tail circling around. Go and sweep it onto her legs.
"This cat really likes to cling to you." Zhou Rongzhen said with a smile.
"You said before that it has a bad temper. I think it is very well-behaved. Maybe it hates someone." Shen Jianian put the bowl on the drain rack and pulled a piece of paper to wipe his hands.
Zhou Rongzhen knew who she was talking about and laughed dryly, not daring to answer the question casually.
"I'm going upstairs, you should go to bed early."
Shen Jianian said something to Zhou Rongzhen, left the kitchen and walked upstairs through the living room. She had just finished a bowl of wontons. Based on the mentality that walking can help digestion, she chose to climb the stairs instead of taking the elevator at home.
At the top of the stairs on the third floor, Shen Jianian put one hand on the handrail of the stairs and raised his eyes to see the woman coming out of Fu Jichen's bedroom.
She was wearing a sexy and sultry light-colored long skirt with several layers of pleats on the neckline, which was slightly low and particularly charming. The bun was a little messy, and a few strands of hair hung down to her face and neck, looking a little embarrassed, but still beautiful.
When their eyes met, Shen Jia Nian suddenly said "Ah" in his heart. It turned out to be Zhu Yilan.
Her eyes were slightly red, her face was drained of all color, she was no longer as bright and bright as before, and her body no longer had that cold and solemn aura, as if she had been bullied by someone.
Zhu Yilan was the first to turn his head to avoid her gaze, held up his windbreaker to cover his chest, and hurriedly entered the elevator, not daring to look back.
She was afraid of seeing Shen Jianian looking at her with disdain.
Zhu Yilan had no idea how much misunderstanding her disheveled appearance would cause in the eyes of others. For example, Shen Jia Nian thought that there was some kind of affair between her and Fu Jichen, and almost vomited out the wontons she just ate.
Shen Jia Nian has never hated a person so much. When she thinks about the most intimate thing that person has done with her, she feels like thorns all over her body.
"What are you doing standing there at night?"
Shen Jia Nian was just thinking about something when a sudden voice startled Shen Jia Nian. She glanced over and saw that it was the person who made her feel unhappy all over.
Fu Jichen came out of the bedroom, wearing a black bathrobe and carrying a clean and handsome aura. He had obviously just taken a shower.
Shen Jianian said angrily to him: "Nothing."
Hearing that her tone was a little aggressive, Fu Jichen didn't doubt it. He seemed to be used to her being like this.
After Shen Jianian said that, she turned around and went back to the room. Unexpectedly, Fu Jichen reacted faster than her and came to her in a few steps. His strong chest was like a wall, blocking the door of the room. She didn't stop for a moment, and the tip of her nose bumped into it, causing her to moan softly in pain.
Covering her nose and taking a step back, Shen Jianian walked around him and entered the room. This man was always against her. He would go left when she went left, and he would go right when she went right. It was annoying as hell.
"What on earth do you want to do?!" Shen Jianian yelled at him.
"Stop teasing you, show me your nose." Fu Jichen took her hand away, tilted his head slightly to look at the red tip of her nose, and clicked his tongue, "Why did it hit you like this?"
When she bumped into him, he didn't feel anything at all. At most, he was scratched by a feather. Not only was it not painful, but it was also a little itchy.
Shen Jianian got angry when she saw him, pulled her hand away, and without saying a word, went straight into the room, turned around and was about to close the door, but put one hand on the door panel to stop her movement.
"I'm on a business trip tomorrow." Fu Jichen looked at her through the crack of the half-open door.
Shen Jia Nian was puzzled. She already knew about this. He had told her during the day: "So?"
Fu Jichen's dark eyes were heavy and he stared at her for a few seconds. He was too lazy to talk nonsense to her. He opened the door completely with a little force on his hand. He picked her up and walked to his bedroom not far away.
Shen Jianian reacted, surprised and annoyed: "Put me down!"
"Sleep with me tonight."
Fu Jichen closed his arms and held her firmly in his arms, not allowing her to refuse.
