Chapter 440: Why Ask

When he returned to the game company, the news of Zhai Jing being kicked out of the operations team had already spread throughout the entire building.

Although the people in the game company knew that Zhai Jing didn’t participate much in the operation, this punishment for seizing power wasn’t a big loss to him.

However, Zhai Jing shouldn’t have been the scapegoat for this matter, but he was dragged in. He was just picking on the weak persimmons and bullying Zhai Jing because he was young and had no background.

Therefore, when his colleagues saw Zhai Jing, they showed a sympathetic expression to him. As employees, they were all too aware of this kind of grievance.

Zhai Jing thanked them for their concern and entered the office that the company had specially arranged for him. Just as he sat down, Lin Hui poked his head in with two cups of coffee in his hands.

He came in and placed a cup of coffee on the table in front of Zhai Jing.

“Zhai Jing, I’m sorry to have called you to the office to work as soon as I got off the plane today. There’s no choice. You have to do the work here. I can’t count on those people outside.”

The office door wasn’t closed, but Lin Hui’s voice wasn’t soft. His words had probably already spread. Zhai Jing had encountered many people who secretly helped him make enemies, but he didn’t expect Lin Hui, who had always been very sunny, to actually use such low-end and disgusting methods.

After the two of them had fallen out, he was revealing more and more of his true nature in front of Zhai Jing.

Zhai Jing used his fingers to push the coffee away, then bent down to turn on the computer.

“CEO Lin, what’s the matter?”

He entered the password with an indifferent expression, implying that if there was nothing else, he should get lost.

Lin Hui had been observing Zhai Jing’s expression ever since he entered the room. He realized that he had been maintaining a stoic face and couldn’t tell anything from it. He simply asked,

“Did President Ren deliberately ask you to stay because of what happened at the meeting today?”

Zhai Jing logged into the game’s backend and checked the missions on it.

Then, he said,

“I guess so.”

Was it or was it not? Lin Hui was confused.

Seeing that Zhai Jing was hiding his intentions and refusing to say them out loud, he secretly cursed “Little Rascal” and could only continue to probe.

“Speaking of which, you’re really lucky. There are so many talents in the country who want to get CEO Ren’s favor, but you’ve got it first.”

As he spoke, he observed his expression.

“When you entered the meeting room today, President Ren even specially

greeted you. I don’t think CEO Ren is targeting you today. It must be the CEOs of other platforms. They saw that our game company has so much revenue every month and so many profit points, so they couldn’t stand it and deliberately pushed CEO Ren up. President Ren had no choice but to agree.”

However, Lin Hui realized that Zhai Jing did not react to his words. He didn’t feel that being appreciated by Ren Rong was something to be proud of, nor did he feel aggrieved or indignant because of the incident that happened at the meeting today.

Lin Hui cursed in his heart,

This kid is too scary. He’s only 18 years old, but he can control his emotions to such an extent.

However, what he didn’t know was that Zhai Jing didn’t react because he really didn’t care about the two things he said. Therefore, he could not be bothered to listen to Lin Hui’s nonsense and interrupted him directly,

“President Lin, what exactly are you trying to say? If there’s nothing important, I’ll get busy first.”

When Lin Hui heard this, he clenched his teeth.

“Zhai Jing, everyone says that you’re a smart person. You should know what I’m trying to say.”

Zhai Jing pushed back hard and the office chair slid back a few centimeters. He leaned back in the chair and looked up at Lin Hui.

“President Lin, you’re a smart person, so you should know that you won’t get anything out of me. Why did you have to come all the way here?”

Lin Hui’s facial muscles trembled. He sighed coldly.

“I thought you would change your attitude towards me because I spoke up for you at the meeting today.”

Zhai Jing gave him a mocking smile.

“Don’t joke like this again next time.”

It was disgusting to pretend not to know something that both of them knew.

The smile on Lin Hui’s face disappeared completely.

“As expected, people who are too smart are easily disgusted.”

Zhai Jing retorted rudely,

“After all, you’ve been exposed. You’ll definitely jump.”

“You!”

Lin Hui took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart. As expected, a wolf cub was a wolf cub. There was no need to expect too much from him..
