My Breathtaking CEO Wife Novel - Chapter 26
Chapter 26: Chapter 26 – She’s Your Girlfriend?
Lin Yi always chose to go to the cafeteria when most of her employees were almost finished with their meals.
She liked eating there in her private room, as she didn’t want to make others uncomfortable because of her.
However, when she arrived today, she realized that there were still many people in the cafeteria. Usually, many of the employees would’ve finished eating by then.
Unexpectedly, a man began walking in her direction.
Lin Yi knew him, he was the head of the Advertising Department. He was young, charming, and had a lot of potential in his career.
Pan Zi Ming stood before Lin Yi and immediately became cautious. She was beautiful, but no one in the company dared to act offensively in front of her.
In the past, someone wanted to gain her attention and acted obnoxiously. However, he was fired the following day.
Lin Yi wasn’t someone who brought her personal feelings to work, but she figured that she didn’t need someone so ignorant and cocky in her company.
Want to chase me? Sure, leave your positions first!
No man in the company dared to approach Lin Yi for this reason.
No one would be dumb enough to take the risk of saying the wrong words before her, and risk being fired.
“President.”
“What’s wrong? Why is it so noisy here?”
Lin Yi asked, whilst furrowing her brows.
Pan Zi Ming immediately realised that the President was unhappy.
“President, there’s an assistant from the PR department who was threatening me. I…”
He didn’t manage to finish his sentence but Lin Yi got the message.
She wrinkled her forehead and thought, an assistant threatening the head of a department? How did someone like that get into the company?
“Bring me there.”
…
Li Tian stood beside Chen Ya Jing and was busy consoling her. He told her not to worry, and even if the President came, he wasn’t scared at all. Chen Ya Jing kept quiet, but she was touched by Li Tian’s actions.
Following this, they heard a voice.
“President, that’s the assistant from the PR department. Everyone heard him threatening me.”
Pan Zi Ming was like a kid who had brought their parents over to the scene after fighting with other kids. He had a smug expression on his face as he looked at Li Tian and Chen Ya Jing.
He thought, with Lin Yi’s personality, Li Tian’s bound to be a goner this time. If Chen Ya Jing’s boyfriend becomes unemployed, why would she continue to be with him?
Pan Zi Ming was right. Lin Yi wanted to come over to verify if that assistant was really threatening Pan Zi Ming. If he was, then he would’ve lost his job.
However, as soon as she walked into the middle of the crowd, Lin Yi was shocked.
At the same time, Li Tian was also surprised upon seeing her.
What’s going on? Why is she here?
Did she hear about me working here? Is she here to make me work as a security guard?
Both of them stood in silence, but Chen Ya Jing who was standing at the side immediately ran to the President and tried to explain the situation. She told her that Li Tian only quarrelled with Pan Zi Ming because of herself, and asked for her forgiveness.
After all, it would be a waste for him to lose his job over this matter.
“President, my boyfriend, Li Tian, he… only quarrelled with Mr. Pan because of me. My boyfriend was jealous because Mr. Pan gave me a flower, so he…”
As soon as Chen Ya Jing spoke, the atmosphere in the cafeteria went cold.
Li Tian felt extremely awkward and embarrassed. When he heard Chen Ya Jing call Lin Yi ‘president’, he suddenly understood the whole situation.
Darn it, the job I’ve looked so hard for is for my wife’s company.
Why did I say I was someone else’s boyfriend in front of my own wife?
Li Tian thought to himself, wow, I just couldn’t be unluckier today, huh.
He didn’t know what else to say. Judging by Lin Yi’s stance, Li Tian knew that a big fight was waiting for him at home.
Admit that he’s Chen Ya Jing’s boyfriend? He’d be doomed.
Deny it? Then Chen Ya Jing would be upset. He’d also be doomed.
That said, it was a dead end for him either way. Li Tian really didn’t know how to get himself out of this mess.
“She’s your girlfriend?”
Lin Yi didn’t respond to Chen Ya Jing’s explanation, instead, she posed a question to Li Tian.
That one question drove Li Tian to a dead end.
In the end, Li Tian clenched his teeth and made a decision.
“Yes.”
After saying that, Li Tian thought to himself, Ya Jing, remember to burn more joss paper money for me after I die. I’ve committed an unforgivable sin.
Sure enough, Lin Yi’s body quivered as soon as she heard Li Tian’s answer.
Although she quickly stopped quivering, she felt even worse inside.
Despite the fact that she didn’t have feelings for Li Tian, his answer was humiliating for her to hear.
Li Tian knew how she must’ve felt.
She thought it was comical that her husband was admitting that another woman was his girlfriend in front of so many people.
Oh, Li Tian. So you’re finally showing your true colours. Everything before this was just an act.
“Mr. Pan, Ya Jing has a boyfriend, why are you still pestering her?”
All of a sudden, Lin Yi directed her question towards Pan Zi Ming.
Pan Zi Ming was surprised. He didn’t expect things to turn out this way. Isn’t she going to fire Li Tian?
“President, I… I don’t know.”
“Nonsense. President, believe me, he knows. He’s been pestering Ya Jing for quite a while. Brother Tian couldn’t take it any longer, which is why he admitted that he’s Ya Jing’s boyfriend. Actually, they’ve been together for some time now.”
Shu Qing Qing exclaimed, showing that she was siding with Ya Jing.
What? What do you mean we’ve been together for some time now? Can’t you just stay quiet?
Shu Qing Qing’s words caused the story to have another turn. As Lin Yi looked at the reactions of the employees in the PR department, she figured things out on her own.
“Mr. Pan, go write a report and send it to me.”
A report? What kind of report? A resignation report.
Pan Zi Ming knew that Ya Jing was already seeing someone but still continued to pester her. Lin Yi hated men like him. Even if he had a lot of potential, a guy with a personality like this wasn’t fit to be in her company.
“President, I…”
“As for the two of you, come with me to my office!”
Lin Yi ignored Pan Zi Ming and turned around before speaking to Li Tian and Chen Ya Jing.
