Chapter 1493: At Worst, I'll Just Pay the Penalty

Nan Jiaojiao really didn’t pay it any mind.

Without even a pause in her step, she walked away directly, leaving Lin Shuyun so angry she took a few steps after her. Ultimately, concerned about being seen by others, she gritted her teeth and walked away with a face full of anger.

Not long after returning to the office, Su Miaotong came back. She called Nan Jiaojiao out.

Originally, she was sent by Pei Dongshi to call someone, but she wasn’t reassured and followed all the way to the elevator, still looking worried as she delivered her to President Pei’s office.

“Jiaojiao, President Pei is easy to talk to. I’ve already told him the truth, and he’ll help you turn down the job. Speak nicely, don’t be too headstrong. It’s not that I doubt your ability, but the circle of wealthy ladies is complicated. It’s easy for others to find fault with you. You’re new and might not understand, just don’t make your future difficult because of a moment’s stubbornness.”

Su Miaotong’s words were very straightforward, and Nan Jiaojiao accepted it, “Okay.”

“Then go in, President Pei is available now.”

Su Miaotong knocked on the door, and it was Qiao Shan who opened it. She smiled at the two of them at the door, then called Su Miaotong away, saying there was some business to discuss.

Nan Jiaojiao walked in, closed the door, and lounged boldly on the sofa, pulling out her phone to play games.

Pei Dongshi ignored her, finishing up his work before getting up and taking a cup from the glass cabinet, pouring a cup of warm water, and walking over to sit in a single armchair by the sofa, kicking Nan Jiaojiao’s outstretched foot.

“Did Lin Shuyun give you trouble?”

“Yeah.”

“Interesting, you actually sought trouble for yourself.”

Nan Jiaojiao didn’t even glance at him, too lazy to deal with his sarcastic expression. She rested her head on the armrest, subtly turning up the game volume.

Pei Dongshi was irritated by the game sound effects blaring, even drinking warm water couldn’t quell his annoyance. He kicked her shoe again, harder this time, “I’ll have Qiao Shan make some rounds, do some superficial work. It likely can’t be turned down. Lin Shuyun wants you out of the job, and you’ve taken it on. She’ll definitely make you revise it countless times. When you can’t take it anymore, at worst I’ll pay a penalty.”

He’s never hidden his protective nature.

He didn’t see Lin Shuyun’s troublemaking as a big deal.

Nan Jiaojiao wasn’t worried either, completely relaxed, with no hint of a professional crisis, “Just for show. Lin Shuyun’s picked me out, she won’t give up, why bother with so much superficial work.”

Pei Dongshi chuckled, “Alright.”

After finishing the game, Nan Jiaojiao put her phone in her bag, “I’m heading down.”

“Not staying a bit longer? Slacking off.”

Nan Jiaojiao looked at him with an obstinate expression, “President Pei, I’m here to discuss business, not to have people think I’m here asking for special favors. If I stay in your office for more than ten minutes, everyone will think we’re… “

She didn’t finish her sentence, not because Nan Jiaojiao had matured, but because Pei Dongshi tossed a cushion at her, perfectly hitting her in the face.

This jerk, daring to say anything!

The person with the surname Bo doesn’t know how to manage at all!

Nan Jiaojiao tossed the cushion back at him, glanced at the cup in his hand, “You’re really stingy, pouring yourself a drink without offering any to a guest.”

His eye twitched a few times, “Damn it, on the surface, I’m your boss. It’s your blessing if I pour you a drink!”

“Bang!”

Nan Jiaojiao slammed the door as she left.

And she really slammed it.

Throughout E.Y, there wasn’t anyone daring to show Pei Dongshi such an attitude, but she did, slamming the door loudly!
