Chapter 154 - 154 154 Missing You So Much I Can't Sleep

154: Chapter 154 Missing You So Much I Can’t Sleep 154: Chapter 154 Missing You So Much I Can’t Sleep Mu Group’s office, located in Moongaze Building.

“Yina, has that bastard not arrived yet?!” Ling Weiwei, the minister of the General Affairs Department, dressed in a well-fitted professional outfit that hugged her exquisite figure, her beautiful eyes rippling like autumn water, now brimmed with a hint of chilling anger.

Xiao Yina, who was holding a folder and standing behind Ling Weiwei with her head bowed, gave a wry smile, “Not yet.”

“That bastard, a total waste of space!” Ling Weiwei gritted her teeth, cursing someone who was frantically overtaking other cars in a taxi.

“God only knows what Mr.

Mu was thinking.

If I were the president, I’d definitely fire him!” It was clear the frustration wasn’t exclusive to Ling Weiwei.

Even Xiao Yina, the secretary, was filled with resentment towards their unscrupulous superior.

Lin Fei’s lack of seriousness at work was nothing new.

If it had been before, when Lin Fei was still the General Affairs Assistant, neither Ling Weiwei nor Xiao Yina would be standing downstairs at Moongaze Building, cursing Lin Fei together.

Ling Weiwei was somewhat used to it; that woman had been bullied by Lin Fei for quite some time.

The last time in his office, she had almost been taken advantage of by him.

As for Xiao Yina, Lin Fei’s recently appointed secretary, she was really caught in an undeserved disaster.

With just one phone call, Lin Fei had offloaded all the reception and security work onto her.

Poor Xiao Yina had just started a week ago, not fully understanding the specific tasks and steps, yet she was thrown into such a big job.

If it weren’t for Ling Weiwei rushing over to help arrange the security and reception work, Xiao Yina would have been on the verge of tears long ago.

“Alright, let’s not worry about him for now.

When he gets here, he’ll get what’s coming to him.

Yina, go keep an eye on the parking lot.

Liu Hui’s men haven’t been to work for a while, and I don’t quite trust them,” Ling Weiwei said, deciding not to dwell too much on Lin Fei’s tardiness and signaling Xiao Yina to head to the parking lot.

It wasn’t that Ling Weiwei didn’t want to; she just didn’t have the time.

“Our Ms.

Minister Ling of Mu Group, personally welcoming us, truly flatters this humble Mr.

Wang.” Just after sending Xiao Yina away, and before she even had the chance to catch her breath, a group of five people approached her.

The middle-aged man leading them, balding and in his forties, opened his arms wide, seemingly about to embrace Ling Weiwei.

Ling Weiwei’s stunning, ethereal face broke into a professional smile as she advanced towards the balding middle-aged man.

However, there was a fleeting look of disdain in her eyes as clear as autumn water, which was hardly noticeable.

This brief expression was enough to reveal that Ling Weiwei’s true feelings for the balding middle-aged man were not as warm as she outwardly showed.

“Weiwei, this is where you’re wrong.

You didn’t wear the dress I bought you for such an important occasion, and that truly breaks my heart.

You must give me a hug to soothe my wounded little heart,” pleaded the balding middle-aged man, just as he was about to seize the opportunity for a “warm embrace” while Ling Weiwei was coming towards him with a smile.

That’s when a somewhat slender figure stepped in first, pulling Ling Weiwei’s curvaceous and graceful body into his arms.

“Bastard, where the hell have you been?

You’re only just arriving now!” This sudden divergence shocked Ling Weiwei.

However, as soon as she realized that the slender figure pulling her close was Lin Fei, the very person she had been seething at earlier, Ling Weiwei scolded him with her mouth but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Ling Weiwei didn’t mind Lin Fei’s embrace in her heart, they were in front of a crowd.

She was about to pull away from his embrace when a few words from Lin Fei nearly drove her up the wall.

“The thing is, this is actually your fault,” said Lin Fei, his large hands feeling the tender softness of Ling Weiwei’s delicate figure as he started to blame her.

“My fault?!” The exasperated Ling Weiwei’s eyes turned icy in an instant, and her hand immediately pinched the soft flesh of Lin Fei’s waist.

If it weren’t for the consideration of the onlookers, she would have used something far more persuasive than her Two-finger Zen.

Weiwei, serving as the Minister of the General Affairs Department and Shanshan’s most trusted confidante, chose a critical moment, just as a top-level meeting was about to convene.

She set aside her urgent work and, without regard for her own dignity, went to the entrance of the Moongaze Building to greet guests.

She did this not because she wanted to lighten Lin Fei’s load and prevent any future blame from Shanshan, which could result in Lin Fei being fired.

But when Lin Fei arrived, not only did he not appreciate her, he even blamed her.

Weiwei didn’t smack Lin Fei right then and there, which was already a testament to her good upbringing as a woman.

Of course, the main reason was that Lin Fei had wrapped her up in his arms so tightly she wouldn’t have been able to slap him even if she wanted to.

Lin Fei turned Weiwei’s delicate shoulders towards him with a serious face, “Of course I blame you.

If it weren’t for thinking about you last night, causing me insomnia until I finally dozed off around two or three o’clock, how could I have overslept?

If I hadn’t overslept, how could I have been late?

Now tell me, isn’t this all your fault?”

“I—”

Weiwei’s pretty eyes narrowed slightly, unsure of what to say at the moment.

Her heart felt like a bottle of mixed emotions had been knocked over, all sorts of feelings surging up at once.

Staring at Lin Fei’s chiseled face without blinking, even though she knew Lin Fei was likely spouting nonsense, Weiwei’s heart couldn’t help but flutter.

Fluttering because of Lin Fei’s thoughts.

“Cough cough, I haven’t seen you for many days, Minister Ling seems to have become even more charming.”

Just as Weiwei was emotionally stirred by Lin Fei’s ridiculous words and about to give Weiwei a “warm hug,” a balding middle-aged man, upon seeing Weiwei and Lin Fei embracing without letting go – treating him as if he were invisible – couldn’t help but give a couple of fake coughs, trying to remind Lin Fei and Weiwei of his presence.

Jolted by the balding middle-aged man’s cough, Weiwei, who had been emotionally moved by Lin Fei, suddenly snapped back to reality.

Her cheeks flushed with embarrassment, she quickly stepped out of Lin Fei’s embrace.

“Nonsense.

Our Minister Ling is enchanting; it doesn’t need saying.

Don’t you know she’s famously irresistible?”

Compared to Weiwei’s mild embarrassment, Lin Fei was seriously annoyed.

Didn’t he see that Minister Ling had already been emotionally moved by him?

If he could maintain that state and push just a bit further, perhaps with a little excitement, Weiwei might have followed him to a hotel.

But this half-bald fool had to interfere.

If it hadn’t been for today’s high-level meeting called by Shanshan, and this baldy potentially being a senior executive at Mu Group, Lin Fei would’ve dealt with him on the spot, which would have been difficult to explain to Shanshan.

It’s likely Lin Fei had already been tempted to kick out the balding middle-aged man at the very moment he intended to give Weiwei a “warm embrace.”
