My Breathtaking CEO Wife Novel - Chapter 15
Chapter 15: Chapter 15 – Lame Company
Li Tian had really made up his mind to leave because he had suffered so much here.
Although it was simple and peaceful compared to the wild and vicious world that he had been used to, there was one fatal drawback—it was just too cold.
Everyone here seemed extremely hostile towards him. Despite looking like a tough cookie, Li Tian had a sensitive heart. He couldn’t stand places like this.
However, when he noticed the two sets of shirts, he was touched.
Qin Yu Han was the only person in this world who would buy him clothes.
In fact, all of Li Tian’s clothes were given to him by Qin Yu Han. She knew his proportions well enough, so each time she had bought him clothes, they would fit him very well. The clothes he was currently wearing was also given by her.
As he thought about this, he suddenly froze.
Sometimes it took a long period of time to disappoint people, but only a second to make someone in despair find a glimmer of hope.
“Yu Han, I need time to reconsider. Okay. Nah, I wasn’t angry.”
After making his decision, he suddenly realised that he had a problem. He was starving.
“Wang Ma, is there anything to eat? I’m starving!”
…
Half an hour later, Li Tian was busy devouring his food, whilst Wang Ma and Lin Yi looked at him in amazement.
This man had eaten six to seven pounds of beef in just half an hour.
“Sir, chew your food.”
Wang Ma advised Li Tian after seeing him eating so hastily.
“Okay, okay… I haven’t eaten for two days, I’m famished.”
Li Tian said in a muffled voice, but Lin Yi and Wang Ma heard him clearly.
Two days without eating? Although Wang Ma wasn’t close to Li Tian, she still felt sorry when she heard this. On the other hand, Lin Yi seemed quite awkward.
He wasn’t wrong. After quarreling with Lin Yi yesterday afternoon, things happened one after another, and he didn’t get a chance to eat at all for two days straight.
He took an hour to finish his meal. Lin Yi stared at him in awe as she thought, how much food could Li Tian fit in his stomach?
Wang Ma had cleared out the food supply in the fridge to satisfy Li Tian’s appetite.
“Sir, are you…full? If you aren’t, I’ll go buy more food.”
Wang Ma thought she had seen everything there was to see, until she saw how much of a big eater Li Tian was.
“Burp…”
Li Tian burped as he pat his chest, before taking a sip of water.
“Phew, I’m finally full. Wang Ma, what did you say just now?”
“Uhh…”
Upon hearing Li Tian say that he was full, Wang Ma didn’t ask further. She just simply told him and she had things to do and left.
The fridge was already empty, so she needed to get more groceries in case Lin Yi wanted to eat.
After she bid Lin Yi farewell, Wang Ma left and went outside.
Only Lin Yi and Li Tian were left in the room.
“I heard you say you were leaving when you were talking on the phone before.”
After they both sat in silence for quite a while, Lin Yi broke the silence and asked.
“No? Who told you so?”
“Then what did you mean by ‘within three days’?”
“What? I didn’t say that. You heard me wrongly.”
Lin Yi didn’t believe Li Tian’s answer, but she didn’t interrogate further. After all, it was up to Li Tian to do whatever he wanted, and it had nothing to do with her, at least for now.
“Why were you driving without a license?”
Lin Yi had decided to get along with Li Tian, so she made up her mind to start from here.
As soon as she brought up that topic, Li Tian felt furious.
“That woman from the office told me to drive her, but on our way there, we got pulled over by the police. In the end, she just left me there and drove away.”
Li Tian explained. Actually, after thinking about this earlier, he didn’t really mind anymore.
Lin Yi raised her eyebrows upon she hearing his explanation.
She didn’t know what kind of job Li Tian had, but when Li Tian said it was because of the company, she immediately thought that perhaps it was some firm associated with doing leather bags.
In her eyes, it was impossible for Li Tian to enter a proper company as he lacked the educational background.
“What kind of lame company are you working for? You even rejected my offer to let you come work for me. Even if it’s just a security guard position at my company, it would’ve been way better than your current job…”
To be honest, Lin Yi didn’t feel anything as she talked to Li Tian. Previously, she had been displeased with him but after talking about it with her mom, she slowly began to accept her reality. She wanted to put her negative feelings aside and try to make peace with Li Tian.
As long as there wasn’t any crazy days, Lin Yi felt that she could put up with it.
Li Tian couldn’t refute Lin Yi’s statement when she called the company that he worked for “lame”. He knew that she had her own company and the Lin family was considered very wealthy. The company he was working at really wasn’t up to her standards.
“Our company isn’t bad, it’s just that some people there are pretty narrow-minded.”
Li Tian couldn’t understand why Lin Yi was acting so different today, she even talked to him in a gentle tone. It was a good start.
“Just resign, I’ll arrange a spot for you in the security team. It’s an easy job and you’ll have more than $4000 as your monthly salary.”
Lin Yi pondered and repeated her previous offer.
$4000? Li Tian was already earning $6000 per month, and when you included his end of year bonus, he would earn almost $10,000.
“Umm, it’s okay. I’m fine working at this company, it’s a pretty easy job.”
Li Tian felt embarrassed rejecting Lin Yi’s offer for the second time, but he really enjoyed his current job. There were so many pretty girls in the office, why would he go work as a security guard?
Lin Yi felt slightly upset upon hearing Li Tian’s rejection for the second time. She had already given him an opportunity but he still wouldn’t take a step back? Lin Yi really wasn’t in a mood to make things work between them anymore.
“What’s so good about your lame company? Li Tian, I really want to get along with you and make things work out between us in the future. However, I’ve already offered you a job so many times, why won’t you just accept my token of sincerity?”
