She Took Back Her Children and Got a Husband

Chapter 8: Chapter 8 Doing Sports Together



Inside the General Manager's office! Xu Feng walked in.

"Ms. Jiang, the vice president of Jiang Group is still sitting in the reception room. Should we send her away with some excuse, or let her continue to wait?" Xu Feng asked.

Jiang Xiaorou glanced at the time, only to realize that several hours had passed. Having just been transferred to the branch office in Country F, she was indeed very busy and didn't expect to have left Jiang Yufei out in the cold for so long. She wondered if that woman was about to explode with anger now.

If it weren't for not wanting to expose her identity, Jiang Xiaorou would really like to go have a look herself.

"What has she been doing in the reception room these past few hours?" Jiang Xiaorou asked.

"She hasn't been doing much, just looked at her phone and paced back and forth, restless and anxious while waiting. So what do you suggest?" Xu Feng asked again.

He couldn't fathom Jiang Xiaorou's thoughts. Normally, in such situations, they would make people wait for at most half an hour. Then Xu Feng would go over and find some excuse to send them away, or hand out a business card, without offending anyone.

But this time, Jiang Xiaorou clearly did not want to cooperate with Jiang Group, yet she kept Jiang Yufei waiting. Could there be some deep hatred?

Jiang Xiaorou looked at the time again.

"Go take a look, ask her if she wants lunch?" Jiang Xiaorou said.

"Okay."

Xu Feng went to the reception room.

"Has your general manager finished with his duties? It's just about lunchtime, how about I treat you, and we can chat while eating!" Jiang Yufei, seeing Xu Feng arrive and thinking there was good news, was eager to engage.

"Sorry, Ms. Jiang, our general manager doesn't have the time to see you at the moment; he has several video meetings to attend. Would you like some lunch? Our company's food is quite good, or maybe you can come back another day," Xu Feng asked.

Xu Feng's intention was clear. He hoped that Jiang Yufei would take a hint and leave, as continuing to wait would be a waste of time.

"May I ask bluntly, your general manager doesn't intend to invest in Jiang Group at all, right? He wants me to take the hint and leave." Jiang Yufei suppressed her emotions.

She was indeed angry. After waiting all morning and not even seeing a face, she was sent away by a mere assistant—who wouldn't be angry?

"I can't guess the general manager's thoughts. As for whether you want to keep waiting, that's up to you to decide," Xu Feng said, then turned and left.

He didn't need to explain too much to Jiang Yufei. They were both people that understood the business world; saying more would be pointless.

Jiang Yufei had no choice but to leave. It seemed unlikely she would meet the person in charge today, so she would have to devise another strategy. She would not give up because giving up would mean that Jiang Xiaorou would enter Jiang Group as the vice president, and Jiang Yufei would have to kneel before her and call her dad. What a humiliating thought?

Jiang Yufei had never been humiliated like this in her life and would absolutely not allow such a thing to happen.

She could only leave for now and think of another plan later. Jiang Yufei left the reception room, and since she was not familiar with the environment at TM, she wandered around uncertain of where the elevator was, like a headless fly.

By a stroke of bad luck! She happened to wander just outside the general manager's office. Jiang Yufei stopped, maybe the person was in the office. Since he didn't want to see her, Jiang Yufei decided to take the initiative and go in. Worst case, she would just act a bit more proactive later—after all, what man doesn't like women?

Jiang Yufei stood outside the door, deliberately pulling down her shoulder strap a bit, leaning on the door with one hand, gently pushing it open with the other, and posing seductively in the doorway as if performing a uniform seduction!

"Jiang Xiaorou? What are you doing here?"

Jiang Yufei was in shock. In the TM Group's general manager's office, besides Assistant Xu Feng, there was Jiang Xiaorou, both of them sitting in front of the coffee machine, eating fast food, even their rhythms were consistent.

Jiang Yufei's sexy pose instantly turned into a joke. She quickly adjusted her shoulder strap and walked in with her head held high.

Jiang Xiaorou's mouth was stuffed full with round balls of rice as she looked at Jiang Yufei in equal astonishment.

She had intended to leave Jiang Yufei out in the cold, but who would have expected her to be so persistent, coming to her directly? This caught Jiang Xiaorou off guard, wondering if her identity as the General Manager of TM Group could no longer be kept a secret!

The show hadn't even started yet, and before Jiang Yufei had the chance to call her "Daddy," it was over?

In an instant, Jiang Xiaorou transformed into a little drama queen, quickly swallowing the rice in her mouth and jumping up like a brown-noser, grabbing Xu Feng's trotters and shaking them incessantly.

"Mr. Xu, you really have to make sure I get to meet your General Manager! I really, really want to collaborate with you, please please, just let me wait a little longer, mm-hmm! Love you!"

Eh!

Xu Feng's brain just short-circuited! What kind of tactic was this? Ms. Jiang wasn't like this normally, was she? At the company, she was quite proper, a typical strong female figure, spoke with measure, and behaved appropriately. Today, however, she was so frivolous — it was almost like she had taken the wrong medicine!

"Mr. Xu, pretty please, you said we would eat and then I could wait a bit longer, you can't go back on your word! I'm just a simple girl, you can't deceive me!"

Jiang Xiaorou continued her act, acting until she was almost sick—truly disgusting!

"Umm! Umm!" Xu Feng nodded awkwardly.

Jiang Yufei finally saw the light—Jiang Xiaorou was here shamelessly making a scene. Could it be that her own skin wasn't thick enough? However, it seemed that Jiang Xiaorou hadn't met the General Manager of TM either, and since that was the case, their bet was still on.

Jiang Yufei was no longer worried, but walked over triumphantly, with the air of a victor.

"Jiang Xiaorou, do you really think making a scene here will get you a meeting with the General Manager? How naive! Business isn't done by being unreasonable. I thought you had some real skills, but turns out this is all you've got!" Jiang Yufei said with a smug look.

Such arrogance, simply nauseating. Xu Feng could see clearly now—these two obviously had deep grudges. Since that was the case, he definitely had to side with Jiang Xiaorou.

"I haven't seen their General Manager, but that doesn't mean I won't be able to make a deal, acting as if you've met him." Jiang Xiaorou was equally disdainful.

After all, they couldn't stand each other and had gotten used to it.

"Heh! Who said I haven't met them? I was just meeting the General Manager of TM, who wasn't in the office but working out in the gym! Where do you think I got all this sweat from?" Jiang Yufei's ability to lie was off the charts.

She must have forgotten that Xu Feng was still standing right there.

Jiang Xiaorou was about to die laughing. She had never been one for working out her muscles, let alone gymming—Jiang Yufei must've thought the General Manager of TM was some kind of handsome guy! This was definitely the funniest joke Jiang Xiaorou had heard all year.

"So you were exercising with the General Manager of TM! Impressive, quite fitting for Jiang Yufei's persona," Jiang Xiaorou mocked, clearly improved in her sarcasm.

And she signaled Xu Feng with her eyes, telling him to stay out of it. Xu Feng immediately understood and kept his mouth shut tight.

"I know you're just jealous of me, trying to choke me with these kind of remarks. It doesn't matter, with just one more step, the contract will be mine. Jiang Xiaorou, the defeated will always be the defeated, even if you return after disappearing for five years, you still can't beat me, and soon you'll be kicked out of Country F." Jiang Yufei twisted her hips and walked away in her high heels with pride.

Just look at that proud little figure. Xu Feng nearly wished he could go over there and snap her waist.

After Jiang Yufei left, Xu Feng began to speak.

"Ms. Jiang, why didn't you just tell her straight up that you are the General Manager of TM Group? That woman is too arrogant, always trying to step on you. If you had told her, she probably wouldn't dare to talk nonsense in front of you again," Xu Feng said.

Jiang Xiaorou smiled. She extended her delicate hand, and Xu Feng obligingly placed a cigarette between her fingers.

"It's more fun this way. Since she likes to pretend, I'll just play along to the end."
