Chapter 12 - A rival or A Matchmaker?
Today, Jiang Qi arrive at the office quite early.
Unexpectedly to meet this person, Wang Si Qi, together waiting for elevator.
“Good Morning, Manager Wang.”
Today Wang Si Qi neatly combed her wavy hair to fall on her shoulder, wearing sleeveless lavender blouse and short white skirt, looking quite elegant. This set of clothes exactly as Xiao an has showed Jiang Qi on a magazine last week while praising the beauty of that assembled.
“Oh, Manager Jiang, Good Morning.” Wang Si Qi exposed a graceful smile but in her heart there is some grievance when she thought back to what happen on last time lunch treat.
Ding! The elevator opened up and both walked into its interior.
“I heard you are acquainted with President’s Assistant Yang Shao Yu?” Wang Si Qi broke the silent atmosphere inside the elevator with this question.
“Yes..I knew him.”
“Then.....” Have not finished, the elevator already reached her designated floor. Wang Si Qi walked out of the elevator: “Manager Jiang, if you have time later, why not we meet after work to chat?”
After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Qi replied: “Okay.”
Elevator gradually closed and Jiang Qi suddenly realizes one thing: Later, where to meet oh???
Lunch time, Jiang Qi and Xiao an went to company cafeteria to eat, sitting face to face. Xiao an one hand hold a pair a chopstick while another hand holding a spoon, at this time speaking while gesturing: “Jiang Qi, have you seen Wang Si Qi today? She’s wearing that beautiful clothes and the appearance also quite good looking ah. You tell me, why my appearance not beautiful. Not beautiful it’s okay, but why my face have to look like steam buns ah.”During working hour Xiao an would call Jiang Qi manager but off duty she usually call directly his name.
Looking at Xiao an sad expression, Jiang could not help but to laugh for a bit while comforting her: “Steam bun face also not bad ah!”
Listening to Jiang Qi comforting word, Xiao an couldn’t help but to look at the ceiling: “You really do not know how to comfort people, at this time you should say steam bun face also quite cute ah, only correct.” while talking she use both hands to support her face and blinks her eyelid repeatedly at Jiang Qi.
Jiang Qi immediately getting goose bumps.
“But, to be a beautiful woman is certainly every girls wish!”
“No need to think anymore, eat faster. I am done so I’ll go first.”
“Ai, why didn’t you wait for me, no gentleman manners at all.” Xiao an loudly cried out.
Because of that, Jiang Qi once again sit down and waited for her to finish.
******
After work.
Jiang Qi meets Wang Si Qi at company’s entrance.
Wang Si Qi smiles sweetly towards him and said: “Let’s go to the opposite side for coffee.”
“Alright, let’s go.”
The two sat down with a cup of coffee each. Wang Si Qi started the conversation and straight out asked: “Manager Jiang, previously you said that you knew assistant Yang, then both of you are friends or...?”
“We are friends and we used to go to the same college.”In Jiang Qi’s mind: Don’t tell me she likes Yang Shao Yu?
“Oh.” Wang Si Qi paused then continued: “Then, are you also familiar with President Ke?” After she finished, a trace of blush can be seen on her face.
Jiang Qi’s heart almost left his body, finally understood Wang Si Qi line of thoughts. The cup of coffee seems heavy inside his hand and the thoughts to fling the coffee inside towards Wang Si Qi beautiful face appeared.
Wang Si Qi of course not aware and keep on smiling sweetly and said: “Assistant Yang and President Ke also good friends, then you...”
“Although I and Assistant Yang are friends, but I am not familiar with President.” Jiang Qi cut Wang Si Qi’s words half way through.
“Oh..is that right?”Wang Si Qi’s face suddenly changed, no longer smiling. The tone also turned much colder. She felt that Jiang Qi deliberately don’t want to help her.
Well, in fact, what she thinks is not wrong.
At this time, Jiang Qi’s phone suddenly rang. Answering the phone, it’s actually a call from Aunt Li.
“Hello, Jiang Qi. Today I want to cook for dinner but there are no ingredients inside the refrigerator. Help me go to the supermarket to buy, okay.”
“Alright, I will go and buy something back. Bye.”
Hanging up the phone, Jiang Qi apologized to Wang Si Qi while smiling: “I have something to do so I’ll go first. Today is my treat.” After talking he put the money on top of the table and left.
Looking at Jiang Qi’s silhouettes from behind, Wang Si Qi beautiful face changed, gnashing her teeth in anger. At this moment, a slightly fat man sit on the chair originally occupied by Jiang Qi, nervously twisting his hands, in a stammering voice said: “Wang...Manager Wang...I..I..I...like...like you so long...please..please..accept me. After finished, he anxiously lowered his head and his sweats seem to drip out from his forehead.
Wang Si Qi looked at the man with disdain, picked her handbag and stands up. Coldly leaving a few words behind: “Are you qualified? Look at your face in the mirror ba!!” Finished the words, she walked out from the coffee shop without looking back.
