Chapter 1139: Just Acting Cute With My Girlfriend

Chapter 1139: Chapter 1139: Just Acting Cute With My Girlfriend

He is now someone who also gets picked up after social events.

His heart feels especially at ease.

"President." Fang Jiaying, seeing Zhao Dingli hang up the phone and still leaning against the wall, thought he was drunk, and immediately called out.

As she spoke, she stepped forward and reached out to support Zhao Dingli.

Unexpectedly, before she could touch Zhao Dingli, he had already dodged away.

Zhao Dingli suddenly stood upright, standing steadily.

When he turned to look at Fang Jiaying, his expression was cold, and his gaze was particularly clear, showing no sign of being drunk.

"What are you doing?" Zhao Dingli asked coldly.

Fang Jiaying was recently transferred from Changyi to Changlin.

The employees at Changlin all know not to approach him casually.

Fang Jiaying was the first one who dared to come over.

Zhao Dingli’s expression became even colder.

Fang Jiaying was frightened by Zhao Dingli’s expression, and stammered, "I just saw you drank a lot of alcohol and saw you had been out for a long time without returning, worried that you might have drunk too much and something might happen, so I came out to check."

"So you saw me on the phone and didn’t think to avoid suspicion?" Zhao Dingli coldly questioned.

"I..." Fang Jiaying hurriedly explained, "I just saw that you really looked heavily drunk, so I stayed by your side, not daring to leave."

Zhao Dingli sneered coldly, "So I should thank you?"

Fang Jiaying shook her head nervously.

Zhao Dingli asked again, "Who is the star of tonight?"

"It’s the client." Fang Jiaying replied without thinking.

She didn’t quite understand why Zhao Dingli suddenly asked this question.

"So you don’t focus on the clients, analyzing details from them, observing their needs, assessing their reaction, judging the success of the matter, and the direction we need to strive for." Zhao Dingli said coldly, "And instead, you focus on whether I’m drunk, how long I’ve been gone?"

"You left President Wu alone inside dealing with clients, as the host, both of you were absent." Zhao Dingli said, "I can leave because I call the shots. But who are you to decide to leave the clients behind?"

"Even if I were drunk and collapsed in this hallway, President Wu wouldn’t leave the clients to come find me." Zhao Dingli said coldly, "Moreover, I wasn’t drunk, I was just being affectionate with my girlfriend."

"Was it appropriate for you to presumptuously stand by and listen to me talking to my girlfriend?" Zhao Dingli questioned coldly.

"I... I didn’t know..." Fang Jiaying explained in a panic, "President, I didn’t know you were talking to your girlfriend, or that you weren’t drunk. I was just, as a subordinate, simply concerned for my boss. Regarding the clients, I admit it was my mistake."

"I..."

"You know what you are really thinking." Zhao Dingli said coldly, "I don’t need a subordinate who cares for their superior, I just need a subordinate who does her work well and satisfies me."

"As a subordinate, just do what you are supposed to do, don’t think about other unnecessary things." Zhao Dingli said coldly.

Although Fang Jiaying was recently transferred from Changyi.

But at Changyi, she also worked her way up.

No matter what method was used.

The overt and covert battles in the workplace, she had experienced them.

Facing Zhao Dingli’s accusations, she knew Zhao Dingli had seen through it.

Thinking to herself, this man is really clever.

She had just transferred here and didn’t have many chances to interact with Zhao Dingli.

Yet just from her little performance tonight, he was able to see so much.

Having also braved through storms, Fang Jiaying didn’t get tearfully aggrieved like a young girl over Zhao Dingli’s few accusations.

Her face just turned a bit red, showing a stubborn yet obedient expression of admitting her mistakes.

"Yes, President, my performance tonight was not good enough." Fang Jiaying said.

"I’ll go back in first." Zhao Dingli said, "You go back in after ten minutes. Sort out your emotions here properly."

"Yes." Fang Jiaying replied.

Zhao Dingli didn’t give her another glance, returning to the dining room.

Leaving Fang Jiaying alone in the hallway to stabilize her emotions.

However, what she was thinking about now was not the client-related matters Zhao Dingli just criticized her about.

Instead, it was about the fact that Zhao Dingli mentioned he has a girlfriend.

Just now, when he called his girlfriend, he even pretended to be drunk and acted cute.

This was completely different from what she knew and heard about Zhao Dingli.

Fang Jiaying turned her head, looking at Zhao Dingli’s departing figure.

Originally, she couldn’t even imagine Zhao Dingli acting cute.

But just now, she saw it with her own eyes.

Saw Zhao Dingli’s gentleness when talking to that girlfriend, saw Zhao Dingli pretending to be drunk and acting cute.

This was completely different from his usual self, something no one had seen in Zhao Dingli.

Aside from that girlfriend, there was also... her.

No one else had seen it.

When she arrived, she was sure Zhao Dingli was single.

She didn’t know when he got a girlfriend.

She hadn’t heard about it at all.

In the company, those colleagues were so fond of gossip, yet she hadn’t heard about it either.

Fang Jiaying returned to the dining room and first apologized to the clients.

Zhao Dingli was chatting quite well with the clients.

Who knows whether the follow-up will be successful.

Although Zhao Dingli told her to focus all her attention on the clients.

Fang Jiaying couldn’t help but keep her gaze on Zhao Dingli from time to time.

Of course, she didn’t dare to stare openly, she secretly glanced from time to time.

She saw Zhao Dingli occasionally lower his head.

Not knowing what he was looking at.

But Fang Jiaying had a feeling, and was quite confident that he was looking at his phone.

To see if his girlfriend had arrived, perhaps.

Just now, Zhao Dingli said she wasn’t focused enough.

But Zhao Dingli wasn’t putting the clients first either.

He obviously placed his girlfriend first.

Fang Jiaying snorted coldly in her heart, feeling a bit resentful.

Still, she wasn’t wrong in her guess, Zhao Dingli indeed kept looking at his phone.

Zhao Dingli estimated that the time should be about right.

Li Xiaoyun should have arrived by now.

But Li Xiaoyun hadn’t sent him any message.

Zhao Dingli felt a bit uneasy, so he actively ended the dinner.

"You all have been busy all day, let’s not linger, go and rest well in your rooms, we’ll continue tomorrow." Zhao Dingli raised his glass and said.

The clients followed his lead.

Everyone raised their glasses together, ending the dinner.

The clients were staying at Shengyue.

Zhao Dingli personally escorted them to the elevator doors, exchanged a few courteous words, and saw them into the elevator.

Only then did he lead President Wu and Fang Jiaying out of the hotel.

As soon as he got out, Zhao Dingli looked around for Li Xiaoyun’s whereabouts.

He saw a Tesla by the roadside, it seemed quite familiar.
