Mister Li, the Heart Bandit

When the meeting ended, Ji Weixi quickly squeezed her way into the crowd and slipped away.

She did not even pause for a moment as if there was a flood surging tightly beside her.

Li Shaoling quickly followed. His face was as dark as the skies outside—with the possibility of lightning strikes at any given moment.

Everyone was so spooked when they saw him that they cleared the way for him.

Meanwhile, Ji Weixi fled all the way to the ladies’ room, entered a cubicle and locked it.

Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.

Hmph. She would see how he would enter—she would yell pervert and thug if he did.

Meanwhile, Li Shaoling stood outside and waited.

Each female employee who left the washroom was blushing. “President Li...”

He would throw them a cold glare then, and they would quickly leave.

When Ji Weixi still didn’t come out after half an hour, Li Shaoling turned to leave.

‘Fine, Ji Weixi. You’ve got balls.

‘But there is all the time in the world!’

***

With Li Shaoling’s usual pattern, Ji Weixi thought that he would make some excuse and summon her to his office since he could not get back at her immediately.

However, nothing happened for the entire morning.

It was a little unexpected, but that was fine since she could work comfortably.

After lunch, Tian Miaomiao received a message and told her, “Xixi, there’s a client who asked a meeting at the café opposite to talk about some design issues.”

Ji Weixi’s brow wrinkled. “Man or woman?”

“Man. There’s not much else, but he did say that he wanted to get acquainted and talk about certain designing aspects.”

Ji Weixi bit her lip. “Alright, book a place for me.”

It could be her very first order in CBS—she mustn’t take it lightly.

If that order went sour, she might not keep the title of chief designer in CBS.

And that would cause a lot of unnecessary problems for her.

Tian Miaomiao nodded. “Alright, I’ll tell the client about the meeting place after making the arrangements.”

The little one looked up from the game she was playing when he heard ‘man’. “Mommy, don’t forget that you’re meeting a man.”

In other words, don’t cheat on Daddy.

Ji Weixi’s face darkened and she gently pinched his little cheeks. “You rascal, I’ve wasted four years doting on you. Who is more important—me or Li Shaoling? Choose!”

The little one tilted his head and thought about it seriously.

“Hmm. Sister is more important.”

‘Oh.

‘Sh*t.

‘F*ck.’

Ji Weixi was speechless.

***

There was a chime the rush of a warm breeze when Ji Weixi opened the door to the cafeteria.

Ji Weixi preferred a window seat. Walking past a few tables under the guide of a waiter, she turned to leave when she saw Mo Nanfeng’s face.

“Weixi!”

He quickly gave chase and blocked her way with a tender smile. “What are you doing, Weixi?”

She rolled her eyes at him and mocked, “Doing all that just to meet me? You are quite the disgusting one, Mo Nanfeng!”

A wounded look flashed over the man’s face. “How could you say that, Weixi? Don’t you know that it hurts my heart?”

‘Hurt? And do you even have a heart, scumbag?’

Ji Weixi shrugged and smiled coldly. “Four years ago, you called me a bitch, spurned me and said that you didn’t want to see me for the rest of your life. Didn’t you think about how you hurt me back then?”

Mo Nanfeng’s face fell at her words. “Weixi, I told you that it happened in the heat of the moment. I’ve been fooled by Ji Jianing all those years ago, that’s why... I was wrong, and you did hit and curse me, is that not enough? Can’t you forgive me? Everyone makes mistakes, don’t they?”

See? Was that even how humans spoke?

“Mo Nanfeng. Why don’t you just die, bastard?”

His face turned at those words, but Ji Weixi merely blinked innocently. “Oh my, I said that in the heat of the moment. Can you forgive me?”
