Chapter 121 - Treat Me to a Meal When You Get Your Pay
Chapter 121: Treat Me to a Meal When You Get Your Pay
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Zhuang Nainai made her way back to her desk in low spirits and cursed Zhang Chaowen a hundred times under her breath before starting to deliberate.
Should she make a call to borrow some money from executive assistant Ji or return the money to Su Jinhui later?
Si Zhengting would definitely find out if she were to call Ji Chen, and that was way too embarrassing.
She was scratching her head in frustration when her phone suddenly rang. It was an unknown caller.
“Hello, it’s Su Jinhui here.”
The simple text gave off a warmth much like Su Jinhui did.
Zhuang Nainai saved his number and hesitated for a minute before replying.
“Can I return you the $1100 at the end of the month?”
The Imperial Group pay their employees on the 28th of the month.
However, they had only met today, it was not nice to owe him money right from the start.
Zhuang Nainai felt beyond embarrassed.
Su Jinhui replied quickly. “Sure, no hurry.”
Zhuang Nainai was immensely relieved.
She knew the sum mattered little to Su Jinhui, but the fact that he did not ask her to forget about returning the money meant he cared about her pride. He really was an understanding guy.
Her fingers flew across the keypad. “Thank you!”
The conversation did not end there as expected and she received another reply. “Face to face?”
Zhuang Nainai was confused. “What do you mean?”
“Treat me to a meal when you get your pay.”
Zhuang Nainai was at a loss.
Was this a trap?
Furthermore…
It felt as if Su Jinhui had a thing for her?
Zhuang Nainai opened her takeout lunch and ate while she stared at her phone, wondering how to reply to the message.
She was pretty and had many suitors in university.
Zhuang Nainai never liked to lead people on, and she would make it clear to her suitors that she was uninterested.
However, she had only met Su Jinhui today, and he only asked for lunch. She could not possibly reject him.
But if she did treat him to a meal, would that be considered as her leading him on?
Zhuang Nainai hesitated while chomping forcefully on her pork ribs.
No one in the design department noticed Mr. Si’s personal assistant May walk by the door to ensure that Zhuang Nainai was eating her lunch before leaving.
Zhuang Nainai ate her lunch absentmindedly and was about done when Su Jinhui texted again.
“I’m kidding. You are new here, of course it will be my treat.”
This would be much easier to reply to.
Zhuang Nainai picked up her phone and typed. “I was eating just now, you are too kind! You have already helped me big time today.”
She hit send and got up to throw away her empty lunchbox. When she came back, everyone in the office was heading over to the meeting room with files in hand.
Zhuang Nainai hurriedly followed them with her laptop and photocopies of documents, which she distributed to everyone sitting in.
The meeting commenced. Zhuang Nainai dared not steal one glance at her phone under Zhang Chaowen’s watchful eye.
Even when her phone buzzed a couple of times in her pocket.
The meeting went on ’til 3 pm, and a twenty-minute break was given. Zhuang Nainai was finally able to check her phone.
