As an interpreter, she also witnessed him leading his team and pressuring the other side at the conference table, like a king himself. That aura had dispersed her initial fear. The language that she hadn't spoken for many years, from rolling up her tongue to becoming more fluent.
He didn't talk much, and many times he would just sit there as steady as a mountain, listening to his subordinates' exchange of blows, occasionally inserting a few sentences at critical moments. Once he opened his mouth, it would immediately hit the vital points, causing his opponent to be unable to fight back, causing her to suddenly look at his deep and handsome face with a hint of adoration.
Five years ago, she felt that he was just like a grown man, always overflowing with emotions and easily impulsive. Time had finally carved him into a mature man, with meticulous thinking, direct insight, planning decisiveness, unfathomable thoughts, and the patience of a cat and mouse.
Qian Xun felt that he was the mouse, hiding in a dark corner where he couldn't see the sun. All he could do was dig a deep hole in the ground to bury them and taste them alone.
The contract was finally signed smoothly, and the two sides won each other, holding hands and having fun.
After the celebration ceremony, Ji Junyang did as he had promised, granting his men three days of leave, freedom of movement, and reimbursement for his expenses.
However, Father Wen said on the phone, "These few years you've been working pretty hard too, and it's rare for you to get a chance to travel, so you can just play for a few days before coming back. With your mother and I watching over our home, An An is very obedient, and Hai Yu also helps out every day, so you don't have to worry, just relax there."
She also wanted to relax a little, but staying with Ji Junyang, she was afraid that she wouldn't be less nervous and would only feel more scared.
As soon as he put down his phone and was about to pack his luggage, his phone rang. "Come down, I'll be waiting for you at the hotel entrance."
He just said that and hung up.
When did this man get into this habit? It seemed that the moment he gave the order, the others had no choice but to obey. They had actually thought of themselves as a big boss.
Qian Xun didn't allow him to do as he pleased and angrily called back, "Does Director Ji have any other orders?"
"Take you to see the coral at the bottom of the sea." His voice was clear and soft.
Qian Xun was stunned, "Sorry, I'm not interested. I've booked a plane ticket back to Luo City in two hours."
"Who said you can leave?" He seemed displeased.
"Three days leave, free movement. This is what you said, Director Ji." Qian Xun reminded him.
"Yes, I gave them three days, but not you. "Assistant Wen, I remember that you were given a week's paid leave not too long ago. If every employee is like you, taking leave every day and paying the same salary, as the boss, I would have to go bankrupt."
Ji Junyang sat in the car with his elbow resting on the window of his car. His lips slightly curved upwards and a cold expression emerged on his face. It seemed as if his face was glowing with a golden lustre.
Even though Qian Xun cursed him in his heart, he still received his salary and had to do some work for him. He grinded his teeth as he said, "Since you still have work to do, I will return the plane ticket, but if Director Ji wants to find someone to play with, I'm sorry, but I want to rest now."
God knows what he had in mind. He wanted to take her to see the coral for no reason, so he was alarmed.
Ji Junyang was not annoyed, "I'll give you five minutes. I want to see him."
She snorted coldly as she looked at the phone that he had hung up the phone, "Wait for your love. Wait for yourself."
Why did she have to listen to him every time? He was such a tyrant, she hated him to death.
However, Ji Junyang was not someone who would give up so easily. Since she didn't want to leave, he came up himself to invite her. Opening her door was as easy as flipping his hand.
Only when he came into her room from the front desk with the card, she was changing clothes, and he heard the blood boiling in him.
With just a glance, he could feel the restlessness in his heart.
Qian Xun turned his head abruptly and screamed as he pulled at his clothes to cover himself. His face was flushed red like a cooked shrimp. "How did you get in? Rogue, get out!"
Ji Junyang's eyes were gloomy. He raised the room card in his hand and moved closer to her, "Since you're being called a hooligan, you should do something about it, right?"
"Then what do you want to do?"
Retreating further would be the corner of the wall.
His gaze was filled with the light of wolves pouncing on sheep.
What do you think?" Ji Junyang bent over and lifted her chin, looking at her with a smile that was not a smile. It suddenly occurred to him that teasing her was actually quite a fun thing to do. At least, he could see that she was panicking in such a way that it made his heart pound. "In five years, there has never been a woman who felt so yearning.
"I... Can't I go with you? " Qian Xun was so anxious that he was on the verge of tears.
"Are you sure?" His voice was a little hoarse.
Qian Xun nodded his head like he was pounding garlic. It wasn't good for him to show off his strength when the time came.
"That's more like it." Ji Junyang withdrew the corner of his mouth and released her with satisfaction. If he did not release her now, he was afraid that he would lose control of himself. This was a strange feeling. It was as if the body had suddenly found a suitable soul, and all of his self-control was on the verge of collapse.
"Then hurry up and leave." Qian Xun wanted to chase him away, but he didn't dare to get up.
"I'll give you five more minutes. Is that enough?"
How could she dare say enough now? She couldn't wait for him to leave and hurriedly replied, "Enough is enough …"
Ji Jun was satisfied with her reply and gave her a greedy look. Years ago, he and the little girl had been very close, but he had not even taken a single glance. Looking at the woman's back, he felt his mouth go dry. This was the first time he had felt such a strong feeling from her ever since the little girl had come here.
Ji Junyang walked out of the room, and at the end of the corridor, he released the two buttons on his shirt, faced the window, and let out a long breath.
When Qian Xun saw him leave, he hurriedly carried his clothes into the washroom and locked the door. Then, he frantically swept the phone off the bed. It wasn't that she was afraid that he would do something bad to her, but that she was afraid that if they made contact, they would get tangled up together.
She quickly changed her clothes and went out. She saw him standing there against the light, like a tree, waiting for her.
Ji Junyang, what exactly do you want?
In the end, she didn't dare to ask as she followed him into the car.
The car sped through the strange streets, stopped by the sea, and took a speedboat to the coral island.
The sea breeze blew his white shirt like a billowing sail, and he was the good helmsman who, together, controlled all her emotions.
What he brought her to was a small island of about one square kilometer. On one side was a lush forest, and on the other side was a quiet beach with fine white sand as soft as powder.
Apart from a few adventurous tourists, there were very few people around.
As she disembarked, she hesitated.
"What? Afraid I'll eat you?" He still had that faint smile on his face.
"I'm afraid that you and I will not be called Wen QianXun." She really wanted to tear off his face, but she could only do so as she was already here.
Ji Junyang curled his lips, "Have you played diving before?"
"Nope." She didn't have the time or money to play around with these rich people.
Ji Junyang threw a set of equipment to her, "Put it on."
Qian Xun didn't move for a long time. Then, he took off his clothes in front of her.
He had seen many bosses who wore suits and shoes, but had a general's belly and a belly full of fat. But Ji Junyang, she didn't mean to praise him. His body's proportions were perfect like that of a sculpture, without a single strand of fat on his waist.
Qian Xun panicked and quickly turned around. It wasn't because he didn't dare to look, but because he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to move his eyes away. "Director Ji, please pay attention to your image."
However, he moved closer to her ear without the slightest hesitation. "If you don't move, I don't mind changing it myself."
Damn man, he was always threatening her.
Yet, she had no way of fighting back against him.
He found a secluded area to put on his equipment and followed him into the water. The water was a little cold, but it wasn't too uncomfortable. This was her first time diving, so she was a little scared and didn't dare to sink her head into the water.
"Are you afraid?" He looked slightly amused.
"I still have to support my family. Losing my life here isn't worth it."
"Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you." Like a promise, he took her hand and they sank into the water together.
The water was seductively clear, with rugged coral reefs and colorful fish swimming around like a beautiful sea garden.
Qian Xun gradually forgot his fear and loosened his grip on Ji Yunhuang's hand. He felt that the world in the sea was truly magical. Soon, he was enjoying it and would occasionally make a few weird faces at Ji Junyang.
Ji Junyang suddenly took off his mask, and his face began to twist in her eyes. Qian Xun jumped in fright. He immediately grabbed onto the mask and wanted to pull it on him, but he pulled him back up.
She was afraid that he would die, afraid that something would happen to him. She panicked, and before she could put on his mask, he tore it off. The suffocating pain came crashing down like an avalanche.
He hugged her, kissed her, and fed her the oxygen in his mouth. She barely had the strength to push him away.
Upon reaching shore, Qian Xun gasped for breath as he glared at Ji Yunshu. Ji Junyang, this scoundrel, was obviously toying with her.
He laughed merrily as he lay on the beach.
"Ji Junyang, you lunatic. If you want to die, don't drag me down with you."
After he had laughed enough, he gradually became lonely. He raised his head to look at the sky, "When she is angry, she will also call me by my surname."
Qian Xun was startled. Who was she? Did he mean her, or Xiao Yannan? Ji Junyang, what are you trying to imply? Or have you found something in me? Why was my uneasiness greater than my excitement?
"If you want to go crazy, then go crazy." She got up from the ground, quickly changed her clothes out of sight, and walked in the direction of the speedboat, but there was no sign of the boat.
