"Uh, how do I cooperate?" Ye Ming asked, somewhat confused.
"If I say I'm pursuing you, please let President Jiang witness it. President Jiang will definitely give me face, so I hope you can cooperate with me a bit and not give me a hard time later," Shi Wannian said with a smile.
"I think that's unnecessary. Honestly, not taking a photo with President Jiang isn't a big deal; there's no need to act and deceive," Ye Ming replied without hesitation.
But Zhao Wenjing raised both hands in agreement. "Ye Ming, taking a photo with President Jiang is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Just play along with Senior Shi; it won't hurt," she urged, her mind filled with thoughts of taking a picture with Jiang Luyi, much like those fervent fans who meet their idols.
Ye Ming was easily swayed; after all, Zhao Wenjing was his childhood friend. Reluctantly, he finally compromised. "I'll say it in advance—this is just acting," Ye Ming stated, looking helpless.
Shi Wannian was overjoyed, the corners of his mouth lifting in a triumphant smile. "It's settled then! You all wait here; I'll go invite President Jiang over," he said with a grin, casting a glance at Jiang Chen before leaving.
"Do you want to take a photo with our President Jiang?" Shi Wannian asked with a teasing smile.
"I'm not as bored as you are," Jiang Chen replied, shaking her head slightly; she had no interest in Jiang Luyi.
"Ha ha, don't be jealous later! And don't stare at our President Jiang with any strange thoughts. Let me tell you, our President Jiang dislikes it when men look at her like that. You better keep your eyes to yourself; otherwise, if you provoke President Jiang's anger, no one will be able to save you," Shi Wannian warned coldly.
Hearing Shi Wannian's words, Jiang Chen showed no reaction, but Sun Weiwu shrank back slightly, feeling guilty for having been captivated by Jiang Luyi's beauty earlier.
After warning Jiang Chen, Shi Wannian left proudly. As the owner of the establishment, Jiang Luyi had a private dining room. After entering the room, Shi Wannian returned with a beaming smile after a few minutes.
Zhao Wenjing rushed to greet him and asked about the situation.
"President Jiang said she would come over after finishing her meal; we just need to wait a bit," Shi Wannian said proudly.
Zhao Wenjing looked delighted.
About half an hour later, Jiang Luyi walked out of the private room. Shi Wannian had been keeping an eye on the situation and quickly jogged over when he saw her emerge.
This time, Shi Wannian was determined to win Ye Ming over; usually, he wouldn't dare to look directly at Jiang Luyi. But this time, he put on a brave face and pleaded with her to come witness his pursuit of Ye Ming.
Jiang Luyi was in a good mood today. Besides, Shi Wannian was considered a high-ranking executive in the company; as the president of the group, she felt it was appropriate to show concern for her employees. Thus, she agreed to come and witness.
Zhao Wenjing immediately stood up, straightening her posture like a student facing a teacher, looking nervous. Sun Weiwu and Ye Ming also stood up.
Only Jiang Chen remained seated.
"Hey, Jiang Chen, hurry up and stand up, President Jiang is here," Zhao Wenjing urged in a low voice.
Jiang Chen remained silent.
"You really have no manners. Don't try to squeeze into the group photo later," Zhao Wenjing said with dissatisfaction.
As they spoke, Jiang Luyi approached accompanied by Shi Wannian. Shi Wannian was by Jiang Luyi's side, looking timid and lacking his usual arrogance. Jiang Luyi's expression was somber, giving off an air of unapproachability.
