Chapter 353 – “Do you have feelings for me?” (3)
With all the people that were newly added, Zhong Yi became much busier. Fang JunRong rarely ever saw her at home anymore.
Everyone around her seemed to have found their own direction and were working hard going down their paths.
Li XinYun and Fang Tian finally returned toward the end of July. The two of them would be completely tan from the sun of Xichang City, had it not been the Beautify Pills.
Next year would be XinYun’s 18-year-old debutante. In her previous life, XinYun’s face was ruined by now and she refused to show up in front of others, nevermind about a debutante.
This time around, Fang JunRong would make up to her one way or another, including what she had missed out in the previous life.
Naturally, Jiang DeXian returned with the two girls. He reported the current situation with Dingyang Village to Fang JunRong.
“……The engineering team estimated that it will cost around 5 million yuan to fix the road there.”
Fang JunRong nodded slightly. “Mmm. I will just pay for it from my personal account.” Even though she could get a tax break if she was to pay for it with the company’s money, she didn’t feel that there was that need. The only reason that she wanted to fix the road was to help the locals out and nothing else.
When he was done reporting, Jiang DeXian did not take off right away. He remained where he was. He was tall and handsome and a very simple outfit on him was enough to make him look like a model.
Fang JunRong looked up at him and asked dubiously, “What’s the matter?”
Jiang DeXian blinked and said, “I heard that someone worried that Boss doesn’t have enough assistants and sent a few over. All of them very good looking.”
Fang JunRong busted out laughing. “You caught wind fast?”
Jiang DeXian said casually, “After all, someone made a point of calling me and telling me that I will be out of favor soon if I don’t shape up in my game.”
Fang JunRong was speechless. Being her assistant wasn’t exactly the best job in the world.
Jiang DeXian said seriously, “Mmm. This is a very competitive role and it needs real knowledge to be able to hold it down. I feel that I need to test their knowledge.”
“Oh? How do you propose to do that?”
Jiang DeXian said casually, “I had some free time on my way back and I put together this examination paper. Care to take a look?”
Jiang DeXian quickly printed the examination out and handed it over to Fang JunRong.
“They have 90 minutes to complete it.”
Fang JunRong looked at it and became silent. There were so many technical questions on it that she didn’t even know the answer to a few of them. She suspected that none of those six would be able to answer this.
“Awesome. From now on, whenever someone sends me assistants, I will have to do this.” If they couldn’t complete it, she would send them over to Zhong Yi’s company and package them up for their debut to become stars.
That being said, Jiang DeXian seemed quite sensitive over this issue? Their relationship was purely that between a superior and her subordinate. His concern seemed to have crossed that line already.
She gripped the examination paper and looked over Jiang DeXian’s pretty face before she looked away casually.
“Do you have feelings for me?”
Fang JunRong couldn’t think of any other reasons.
She should have thought of it sooner. If it was just an appreciation, why would someone with net worth in the billions chose to be an assistant with the reputation of being a boy toy and being misunderstood. He could very well be a CEO himself!
Jiang DeXian looked calm as usual, “I thought that was quite obvious.”
Fang JunRong was taken aback a little by his definitive answer. She mulled over it some and said to him, “Are you confusing appreciation and romantic feelings?”
A true annoyance flashed past Jiang DeXian’s face,his chin taught.
It was very rare that Fang JunRong would see such obvious anger on Jiang DeXian. His voice sounded like he was suppressing something. “You are not only insulting yourself when you say such a thing.
“Nobody is better than you in my eyes.”
He approached her out of appreciation and curiosity at the very beginning but, the longer he stayed around her, the more he was attracted to her.
Even after what she had been through in her previous life, she still maintained her old self after her rebirth.
She was still kind toward the world that had hurt her deeply in the past. Much like oysters that turn invasive matters into pearls with a subtle glow. She wasn’t a good person through and through, however. She would retaliate when necessary.
She was decisive with no hesitation during those times.
