Chapter 155 - Not Working With You

"Wh-hat?" Evelyn shutters, her cheeks getting heated. Her heart is racing rapidly and what he just said makes her blush. 

"You hear me" Junjie whispers with a smirk on his face. His eyes are seductively gazing at her, her lips and she can't help but feel from inside. 

Her brain has stopped working and all she can think of is him and his face up close. God, he does look fine! 

"Your face is flushed. I am making you feel hot, aren't I?" he hisses, reaching out his hand to touch her cheeks. His touch gives her goosebumps. 

"No" she lies facing away from him. He smirks because he knows he is right. 

She should slap him and walk away but her body rejects to do so. What's wrong with her? 

He scoots more covering the gap between them, his arm touching her bare arm. "Your body reacts differently than your words," he says, checking her out from head to toe. He can see her thighs pressed together and her fingers curled into a fist of both her hands. She is nervous, flushed, and angry all at the same time. 

"Stop it" she grits out, her chest moving up and down, "D-don't come any closer, I am warn-ning you. "

He laughs under his breath, "I am already close to you, wild kitten." 

No matter what her body wants, she cannot let this jerk take advantage of her. She mentally fixes herself and lifting her other arm, she forwards to punch him but to her surprise, he stops her. 

Smirking he says, "Do you think you can damage my face anytime you want?" He then grips her wrist and pushes her to the couch, her arms above her head. "No, my darling."

She struggles to break free from his hold but he is too strong. He is on top of her and that position is only giving hr weird thoughts. "Let me go!" she protests. She is breathing hard and now is nothing but pissed. Who does he think he is? 

The more he smiles, the more she gets pissed. "Let me go, you dickhead!" she growls, still struggling. 

"If I let you go, you will punch me again, won't you?"

For sure she will! She grinds her teeth together, trying to be sensitive to the situation. "No, I won't. Now let me go."

"How can I trust you?" he says, his voice husky, cocking his head. 

This damn jerk! She thinks to herself. "I won't do, okay? Just let me go, dammit! " 

Right at the moment, Junjie's phone rings. He ignores the call but when his phone rings again, he decides to pick up. He mutters something and let go of her wrist and lends his hand to help her up. 

She glares at him. "Fuck you!" she slaps his palm, rejecting his offer. "I am not doing any work with you, Song Junjie. Go to hell!" she tells right at his face and march to the door. Opening the door, she leaves the room. 

He sighs, pinching the bridge of his nose. He went overboard. Shit, he shouldn't have done that. He feels guilty for doing what he did. His phone rings again and he takes out his phone with frustration. 

Zichen's name floats on his phone screen. He rolls his eyes and taps on the green icon. "What?" he snaps. 

"Did you snapped at me?" Zichen implores from the other line. Junjie is already frustrated and Zichen is irritating him more. 

"No, I am not. Why did you call me?" he asks, taking a step back from being aggressive. 

Zichen informs from the other line. "If the meeting is finished, come to the office. We need to leave for Japan right now."

Junjie scrutinizes, "What? Now? For what?"

"Come to the company first. Be quick" saying this, Zichen hangs up before Junjie can ask anything. 

"Dammit!" he curses to himself and leaves the room in a gloomy mood. He wants to apologize to her but there's no time. If he is not at the office at the given time, Zichen will kick his butt.

He is worrying if she, for real, break the proposal. He doesn't want that, not at all. What he did was a dick move and he is aware of that but what's done is done. 

He speeds up his car, not caring how much traffic there is in front. It's better to be important, or else he will make Zichen regret it.

"No! We are canceling it!" Evelyn strongly puts her point. After what he did, she has made up her mind not to work with him or Fu International. 

"Evelyn, you cannot make rash decisions," Ruth says firmly, "The proposal is very important to us and we have already started working on it."

"I don't care! But I can't work with that jerk, never!" she tells stubbornly.

Ruth sighs. She is having a hard time taking care of Evelyn and it's getting out of her hand because Evelyn is acting more and more rashly. 

"In the business world, it happens. You have to be smart and strong when faced with such a situation" Ruth tries to explain. 

No matter how much she says, Evelyn is not going to listen to her. "Say whatever you want but you should know I am the CEO now. You have to follow what I say" she states, giving her a cold look. 

Ruth opens her mouth but closes it. "I understand, miss CEO," she says, her voice denser than before. 

Before leaving, Ruth says, "Tell your mother about the decision first."

Evelyn ignores her as she leaves the office. She is so mad at the moment that she cannot think straight. He has occupied her mind and that is giving her a headache. He humiliated her. Never in her life did anyone put her in such a situation before. No men ever treated her that way. She thought she is strong but after what happened today, she hates herself. Why didn't she slapped him earlier? Why did she go with the flow? 

She hates her. If he dares appear in front of her again, she will make sure to kill him right there.
