Transmigrating as the Villainess Trying to Seduce the Female Lead, Besides Being Slept With, What Else Can Happen? ABO - Chapter 26
In Wens’ high-level conference room, Lin Boqian and the Lin Corporation’s senior executives lined up to sign the development contract today. Although Lin Ji was the person in charge, her rank among the group was only that of a general manager, sitting at the very end, seemingly focused but actually absentmindedly considering where to go on vacation.
After the cooperation with Wens was finalized and just a little news was released to the market, the stock price had already risen for several consecutive days, and the atmosphere throughout the company was one of joy. As the main contributor, Lin Ji was granted leave and received a special bonus.
When discussing work, Wen Shangxuan had always been clear about separating public and private matters, handling official business officially. No matter who your relatives or friends were, she wouldn’t back down on issues involving profit.
However, facing the man in front of her who bore a striking resemblance to Lin Ji, speaking polite pleasantries in a leisurely manner, Wen Shangxuan maintained a smile throughout.
Lin Boqian was naturally aware of Wen Shangxuan’s entanglement with his daughter. However, since Lin Ji hadn’t mentioned it, and given his senior status, Lin Boqian hadn’t interfered. He only had the opportunity to approach Wen Shangxuan during this signing.
Both sides sized each other up, while Lin Ji, the subject of their exchange, didn’t care at all what they were thinking. Recalling an island vacation advertisement she had accidentally seen the day before, “As long as you turn off your phone, the world can’t disturb you,” she was immediately tempted.
After the contract was signed and the matter settled, the solemn atmosphere in the conference room finally dissipated. Both sides chatted casually for a few words, and seeing that the time was almost up, they all rose from their seats and walked outside.
“This cooperation is the first for both of our companies. I hope everything goes smoothly, and there will be more opportunities for cooperation in the future.” Lin Boqian’s attitude finally softened slightly. He had glanced at his daughter just now and noticed that she had been zoning out the entire time and didn’t seem to care much about Wen Shangxuan. Perhaps it was just a fling?
However, that was better than investing emotions and being truly sincere. Wen Shangxuan… wasn’t someone easy to control. So he was somewhat relieved. Actually, even if they had children, it wouldn’t matter; their family business was large enough not to worry about raising them. And Wen Shangxuan’s child with Lin Ji… Lin Boqian revealed a mysterious smile.
“Under your leadership, the Lin Corporation’s scale has gradually expanded, and there are many things Wens needs to learn. I also hope to have time to chat with Chairman Lin in the future.” Wen Shangxuan’s attitude was so polite that the executives behind her felt it was strange.
Lin Boqian laughed heartily. “There will be opportunities, opportunities. Please have Lin Ji bring you over for a visit.”
Wen Shangxuan’s eyes brightened slightly. However, when she looked at Lin Ji, wanting to take credit, she realized that Lin Ji was zoning out and hadn’t paid any attention to them at all.
“Alright, then we’ll leave first. President Wen doesn’t need to see us off.” Lin Boqian was quite astute, noticing certain details that made him increasingly satisfied with his daughter.
Wen Shangxuan saw them to the elevator. Just before the last person, Lin Ji, was about to step inside, she suddenly said, “Manager Lin, I still have some things I’d like to discuss with you. Would it be convenient for you to stay?”
Everyone in the elevator stared at them. Lin Ji exchanged a look with her father and said, “Of course, it’s convenient.” After stepping out of the elevator, she looked at the group of people behind Wen Shangxuan with considerable curiosity. “President Wen, is there an issue that requires your entire team to discuss with just me?”
“It’s nothing anymore, you can all go back,” Wen Shangxuan turned her head and stared at the group of subordinates, expressionless, no, rather a bit dismissive, and dismissed them.
Without hesitation, she pulled Lin Ji into the office, instructing her special assistant to prepare things before closing the door.
The special assistant, accustomed to this, went to pour tea, prepare snacks, and get a change of clothes…
With others watching just now, Lin Ji had to give her face. Once inside the office with only the two of them, she withdrew her hand and crossed her arms. “The contract is signed. Is there anything else that hasn’t been discussed, President Wen?”
“Yes,” she said, not wanting to leave. Wen Shangxuan stood by the door, accompanying her. “The contract is signed. Shouldn’t we discuss how to celebrate?” She wrapped her hands around her in a loose embrace.
“…” Lin Ji was momentarily speechless at her audacity. She forced a formulaic smile. “What you said makes sense. Then, how would President Wen like to arrange it?”
“After this matter is settled, I’d like to arrange a vacation. What about you?” Wen Shangxuan didn’t respond directly but instead asked her.
Unexpectedly, the other woman had the same idea, but Lin Ji had no intention of traveling with her. She didn’t want to spend her vacation working hard in bed. She said righteously, “The cooperation project with Wens is highly valued by the Lin Corporation. Therefore, I need to oversee the handover until it’s on track.”
Wen Shangxuan wasn’t surprised by her answer. She had long recognized that Lin Ji was a workaholic… no one could pull her away from work. She nodded disappointedly. “I understand.”
“Regarding the celebration banquet, I’ll go back and discuss it with the company to set a time and place. We’ll invite President Wen and your team to attend then. Is that okay?” Although she found Wen Shangxuan shameless, Lin Ji quickly drafted a plan in her mind.
“Okay,” Wen Shangxuan agreed crisply. “Then what about a celebration banquet for just the two of us?”
So all that circling around was just waiting for this? Lin Ji glared at her with annoyance, raised her hand, held the back of her head, and kissed her directly.
