Chapter 172: Chapter 172: Does He Care About Her?
Translator: 549690339
Lu Lingche is suppressing the inexplicably surging emotions in him, but he asks her in a low voice nonetheless, “How much salary does Dongfang Mu provide you?”
“What does that have to do with you?”
“We are not divorced yet, of course, it concerns me!”
“I am not obligated to report my income to you, and I have never asked how much money you make.”
Qiao Yin does not want to have a meaningless argument with him. She has an important mission today – to get a project – and she is not here to argue with him.
She pushed Lu Lingche aside: “Move, I need to leave, do not affect my work!”
Lu Lingche was amused by her. Despite being the CEO, he never said don’t interrupt his work, yet she, a mere assistant, is accusing him of interfering with her work?
He pinned her against the wall, “Interfering with your work? What can you do? Dongfang Mu is only attracted to your good looks; do you have any brain at all? Don’t you realize what can happen if you travel with him? Or do you simply not care what happens?”
Qiao Yin looked up at him, her long-held judgment was suddenly wavering.
Why was he so angry?
Did he care about her?
She tentatively asked: “So what if Dongfang Mu is attracted to my looks? Are you jealous?”
“What a joke!”
Lu Lingche denied coldly without even thinking: “Do you think I’m like Dongfang Mu, the playboy, who would be moved by beauty? I have absolutely no interest in you!”
“Then why are you so mad at me? Why did you pull me out? Do you know how people will look at me now?”
Lu Lingche paused before finally saying: “As long as we are not divorced, you are still mine, a member of the Lu family. It would be embarrassing for both me and the Lu family if you go on a business trip with Dongfang Mu!”
So, it was his pride that was hurt.
Qiao Yin gave a sarcastically laugh, how could she misinterpret him, believing that he cared about her?
“If you did not pull me out, no one would know about us or our marriage. Your dignity and that of the Lu family would not pegged to me.”
“Please, President Lu, let me go back. Despite my boss’ temperate nature, this is important and if I disappear with a man abruptly, he would be displeased, and my bonus would be deducted.”
“You should know better than anyone else that I need money urgently.”
After she said that, she tried pushing Lu Lingche again.
This time, she managed to push him away quite easily.
She fixed her hair and her clothes, then walked back into the conference room.
In the hallway was left Lu Lingche alone.
Laughable, indeed. He is her husband, but she doesn’t worry about making him unhappy; she worries about upsetting Dongfang Mu!
She could indeed ingratiate herself with anyone for money!
She had once flattered him for money, pretending to be tender and obedient, and now she was flattering Dongfang Mu, acting like a thoughtful and obedient assistant.
He already knew what kind of woman she was, didn’t he?
But, why did he feel so uncomfortable?
He would rather have her acting by his side, even if it was all an act, rather than seeing her act by Dongfang Mu’s side.
Lu Lingche closed his eyes, forcibly removed the thoughts of Qiao Yin and Dongfang Mu from his mind, and then walked into the conference room.
As soon as he settled down in his seat, the meeting began.
The CEO of Siya Automobile, Cross, presided over the meeting personally.
He first introduced the development of the company and a few new car models, followed by their self-driving system.
After the introduction, he presented a challenge — identifying the flaws in their car system.
This time, there were nine flaws in total. Whoever could detect the most within the given time would win the first round.
They had thirty minutes to do so.
As some engineers couldn’t make it to the meeting due to visa or other issues, Siya allowed major companies to seek help outside the conference.
Thirty minutes passed in no time.
After the Siya team had gathered the data, CEO Cross announced that the winner of the first round was Eastern Empire Group..</p
