Christy felt very unconvinced. She was also a woman, why should she be so despised by others?
She turned around and went to James. Then she nestled against his chest, smiling charmingly: "Jamie, isn't this woman a decent lady? But she's acting so rudely? I suppose she is viewing it as a kind of role-play for some film-making?"
It seemed like she was chatting away with James, naturally and intimately.
How was that possible? James had got such a bad taste, and he was attracted to that woman? Yingyou could not believe her eyes; she thought that they were acting. However, Christy said she was acting in return; an inexplicable uncomfortable feeling came from the heart of Yingyou.
"Interesting. Maybe you should introduce me her now?" Yingyou now realized that she even didn't know the woman's name in front of her. After all, she couldn't always call her "Hey, you."
"I'll do it myself!" Since there is no hiding, why not just face it? "Christy Zhong, Jamie's girlfriend and his personal secretary."
Her bright eyes stared at Yingyou without a trace of timid. But, in the heart, she was sincerely repent, "god, I am so sorry. This is not my intention; life is hard, I need to make money."
James stretched out his long arm and gently took over her slim waist. He then just sat still there, as if he was watching a drama.
Looking at their ambiguous action, added with Christy's unbridled words, Yingyou burst into a rage with a sense of shame. When had she ever been insulted like that?
Her face became stormy, but she needed to remain her dignity. "Oh? when did Mr. Feng fall into an office romance?"
When Yingyou's voice just fell, Christy immediately continued to say: "Miss Jiang, calling him Mr. Feng is really awkward, you two are quite unfamiliar ah? If so, you don't have to bring him lunch!" Christy tried to speak as naturally as she could, but the irony in her words was enough to hurt Yingyou.
Yingyou had to admit that in the relationship with James, she had no equal to Christy. No matter how warm her heart was, she couldn't warm that of him.
In the past, she thought James was for that vegetable girl Anran so that he refused to look for a girlfriend all the time. But now, she couldn't understand he had found himself a nobody.
James gave an indulgent look to Christy, who was in his arm. She was pretty good; she was reliable. What's more, she had made Yingyou angry, and she was calm herself.
Yingyou suddenly laughed, then said coldly, "Mr. Feng, Jing has told me that Zun and Yue want me to go over this weekend to play with them!"
Now that the direct way did not work, it is better to try an indirect one. There was no way Christy would know Jing Lu and James' families, how could she cope with it?
Christy only knew Mrs. Jing was James' mother and was a mighty woman. But she had no idea who was Zun and Yue. Besides, Yingyou did not speak to her; it was improper for her to answer the question.
She wished her EQ could be improved now.
James just looked at Christy spoiledly, saying nothing. Since she must say something, she could only learn from Yingyou---Changing the topic! "Here is the office, why don't we go to the reception room first. When Jamie finishes the work, he will talk to you right away."
Christy did a pretty good job of distraction; she intended to make it a business. If it were a private event, then she would come forward and handle it.
But, how could this be what James meant? But he still said nothing.
So, Yingyou had to be a little more direct and said, "Do you want Mrs. Jing to talk to you personally?"
Considering the relationship between the Jiang Family and the Feng family, Yingyou would never stand such a humiliation. Although affection could not be forced, the marriages between powerful families were always out of various purposes.
James was well aware that he cannot go too far, but he as well needed to let her know the difficulty. Looking at Christy, he raised his eyebrow and said firmly, "Let us go to the reception room and chat with Miss Jiang".
"Sure, it is almost noon. I have ordered food for two; fortunately, Miss Jiang has brought herself something to eat. We could have lunch together!" Christy said with a little mischief.
At this moment, she tried her best to expel all the self-abasement. It was like she had returned to the time before the misfortune, a time when she was innocent and careless of worries.
When Christy just finished her words, the phone on her desk rang immediately. She said timely, "It's supposed to be the delivery-man, I'll go for that."
After Christy left, James also went toward the outside and said gently, "please, Miss Jiang."
That's too much! But What could Yingyou do? She had to stay there to save some face; meanwhile, she needed to know what's going on between them. She couldn't believe James chose such a woman as his companion!
"After you", Yingyou said, and then followed James' footsteps to go out.
As soon as they went out, they encountered Junyan Zhang and other secretaries. Those secretaries were busy to say hello to James. Then, they recognized Yingyou. They surprisedly looked at her and asked earnestly, "Can I take a picture with you?"
However, Yingyou turned around and asked James softly, "Can I take a photo with them?" That kind of tame sense let those secretaries excited, and they even made a sound "Ahhh."
What an anthomaniac! James answered coldly, "It's up to you!" Although it was not a significant public occasion, he had to give her face in front of those secretaries.
But, Junyan Zhang went straight to the side. James Feng did have an attraction to women, but whatever? No one knew who would finally win the heart of the prince.
"For James' sake, I will take picture with you. But be quick, I am in a hurry. There will be plenty of opportunities later, if James says yes." Yingyou said lightly and came to them full of the star flavour.
Under the sight of the boss, how dared these secretaries to take long? They took the picture in a flash without any other requests.
