Chapter 367 School Bully Puppy
Chapter 367 School Bully Puppy
Hearing this, the corners of Pei Jin's mouth visibly drooped, revealing Young Master Pei's unhappy mood at the moment.
And "Why are you here?"
Listen to what he said, it sounds like he is superfluous.
If he hadn't come, he wouldn't have seen those two people talking and laughing in the office!
Pei Jin looked up impatiently at the boy in school uniform next to Bai Yuan. His eyes swept across the other's face and he couldn't help but sneer.
Yo, still an acquaintance.
Perhaps it was because Pei Jin's gaze at the moment was too intimidating. Jiang Ling, who was being stared at by him in this way, felt a chill running from the back of his neck to his coccyx.
The young man couldn't help but complain in his heart, wondering why he was so unlucky and always got caught by this gentleman.
Last time, I had just made an appointment with Bai Yuan, trying to discuss whether we could reach a cooperation under mutually beneficial conditions, but I was caught by this person right after, and he blocked me in the stairwell and threatened me.
Although he had initially wanted to give it a try and had a lucky mentality, after Bai Yuan clearly rejected him, Jiang Ling gave up this plan and tactfully returned to the original boundaries without mentioning it again or making unreasonable demands that would have been embarrassing or annoying.
Even after they worked together in the student union, they could still sit together and chat happily. Jiang Ling also knew that there were more ways to build relationships with the Bai family than marriage. Making friends and establishing a relationship with the eldest daughter of the Bai family was also a way to build relationships.
Therefore, after knowing that Bai Yuan had joined the Student Union, he followed suit and joined in, until now he has climbed to the position of vice president, which is roughly equivalent to half of Bai Yuan's support.
The two of them have been working together for a long time to handle various affairs of the Student Union, especially during this period of time when they were busy preparing for the school anniversary. They have long since developed a certain tacit understanding, and naturally have a closer relationship with Bai Yuan than with other people.
Before Pei Jin pushed the door open, Bai Yuan and Jiang Ling were not the only ones in the office. Two other student union members who worked with them were also there.
It was just five minutes ago when the two of them went downstairs together to deliver the review documents, and it was then that Pei Jin saw him and Bai Yuan alone.
Jiang Ling had heard Pei Jin admit with his own ears that he liked Bai Yuan, and even used the tactic of playing hard to get. He also experienced firsthand how petty and difficult this young master was.
Regardless of whether this love is true or false, whether there is any exaggeration in it, and how long it can last, the mere fact that I am alone in a room with Bai Yuan is enough to attract the attention of this young master for a long time.
Jiang Ling was not making this up out of thin air.
You know, ever since Pei Jin and Bai Yuan got together, he has often dealt with Hai Qi's group of girls who were trying to please Bai Yuan behind their backs, or taught them a lesson personally. If he met someone who refused to change, he would lead his followers to corner them in a corner of the school for a friendly exchange.
Those who knew that this was Young Master Pei bringing people to confront his love rival and secretly eliminate the potential threat, while those who didn't know had already started to spread the word that a school bully who formed gangs and was extremely arrogant had appeared in their Hailan Private High School.
According to this routine, Jiang Ling had a criminal record, so after being caught on the spot by Pei Jin, he could be considered as one of those people who refuses to change his ways.
But God knows how wronged he is! It's almost snowing in June!
Apart from the time he took the initiative to look for Bai Yuan more than a year ago, Jiang Ling believed that he had never crossed the line again. He and Bai Yuan were only superiors, colleagues, and friends with whom he had a relatively good personal relationship, but he had no improper intentions at all...
Actually, we can’t say that there isn’t one.
When Jiang Ling looked at Pei Jin, there was a hint of evasion in his eyes due to his guilty conscience.
You can't blame him for this! It's human nature to admire the strong.
Bai Yuan is a good student, has strong abilities, is resourceful, good-looking, and is humble and polite to others... These qualities would be dazzling enough to dazzle anyone if they were taken individually, not to mention that they are all combined in the same person at this moment.
If you stay with such a nearly perfect person for a long time and don't have some distractions and fantasies, you must be sick in your brain or body. Jiang Ling is a true sapiosexual and considers himself to be in good health, so this is completely inevitable and normal.
What's more, based on his understanding of Bai Yuan during this period, he actually knows her more deeply and thoroughly than others.
For example, the smile that Bai Yuan always wears is a deliberate disguise, and the almost cold and ruthless look that he occasionally reveals when handling work, without any emotional expression, is the real Bai Yuan hidden behind the appearance.
It is said that people are most charming when they are working seriously. As Bai Yuan's assistant and deputy, Jiang Ling comes into contact with Bai Yuan most often when she is working seriously. He has also seen the faint smile that she inadvertently reveals after she puts down her disguise, which is her true smile from the heart.
It looks as if the snow on the top of the mountain has melted a little under the bright sunshine, and the hearts of the viewers are also touched.
However, Jiang Ling was just thinking about it and had not considered taking advantage of his position to go further and try his best to develop something like those other people.
His purpose was also very clear, as long as he could maintain their current relationship and benefit the family, it would be enough. Sometimes too much is not good.
It was precisely because of this that he felt even more uncomfortable because Pei Jin was staring at him as if he was catching a mistress even though he had not taken a single step forward.
"Mr. Pei, don't misunderstand me, I..." Jiang Ling originally wanted to explain and clear himself from the matter, but as soon as he said this, he saw Pei Jin's face becoming more gloomy, and the look in his eyes made him feel even more painful than before.
Jiang Ling quickly went over what he had said in his mind, and his heart skipped a beat, thinking to himself that something was wrong.
This explains...
Why does it sound rather sarcastic, as if saying, "Don't get me wrong, we are innocent, we are just doing this for work, you don't mind, do you?"
Jiang Ling's face was even more embarrassed now. "Uh, Mr. Pei, please sit down."
Then, he looked at Bai Yuan and said, "President, they haven't come back yet. I'll go see if they need any help."
He hurriedly made up a lame excuse and left the office in a hurry to escape Pei Jin's gaze, and tactfully gave the space to the two people.
Pei Jin was finally satisfied after staring at Jiang Ling and leaving. He let out a sneer of contempt from his nose like a rooster that had just finished fighting. With his chin slightly raised, he walked towards the chair closest to Bai Yuan, pulled it open and sat down.
"What's up?" Bai Yuan waited for Pei Jin to sit down before asking, "Why aren't you going home so late?"
"I can't go home." Pei Jin's complacency froze for a moment, and he told Bai Yuan what happened indignantly, adding at the end:
"The car is gone. I can't just walk back."
Bai Yuan listened to him patiently, thought for a moment, and said:
"I have to wait a while before I can leave. If you can't wait, I'll ask the driver to take you back first."
Anyway, there was more than one car to pick her up, and she was traveling in a convoy every day. There was no difference between the one with a driver and the one with bodyguards.
Pei Jin: "Forget it, I'll wait a while. If my mom sees me going back alone, she'll nag me again."
"Okay." Bai Yuan nodded gently, "Then I'll take you back when I'm done."
