Ji Silin himself did not realize this.

But after his grandfather's outburst, he was no longer embarrassed.

He also said in a voice message: "Let's have dinner together tonight."

Something did happen.

Without asking why, Meng Mian answered quickly, "Sure."

A meal costing a million? That's a great deal!

Besides, she would have cooperated even without this million.

Who told her to accept so much money from them?

After talking with Ji Silin, she realized that, not counting the money transferred to the original owner, Ji Silin had transferred a total of seven million to her.

Meng Mian's eyebrows and eyes were curved.

He hurriedly changed all of Ji Silin's nicknames to "God of Wealth".

With so much money, she doesn't need to work hard at all!

After returning to the company, Meng Mian threw herself into her work.

The work in the HR department isn't difficult, it's just that there's a lot to do.

I was busy until almost the end of the workday before I finally finished.

Seeing that everyone was packing up to leave work, Meng Mian also started packing her things.

Yao Ting had already packed her things and was talking to someone.

When she saw Meng Mian packing her things, and how pretty and well-behaved Meng Mian looked now, not at all annoying, she couldn't help but feel annoyed.

Seeing that the manager and supervisor had already left, she didn't have any reservations.

He immediately changed the subject and said with a smile:

"That person, all they know is to lie and say she's the girlfriend of the head of the Ji family."

"If that were the case, the person in charge came yesterday, and she deliberately bumped into him. Did they really not say a word to her?"

"President Ji helped her yesterday and then left without even coming to see her once."

"Haha, this is hilarious!"

"I heard that someone rode an electric scooter to work today. She was all swaggering around the other day, bragging about how much money President Ji gave her!"

"She lies without even thinking; let's see how she gets out of this!"

Her colleague, who heard her say this, was extremely embarrassed; she had no intention of getting involved in the conflict between her colleagues.

She quickly tried to smooth things over: "Yao Ting, you must have misunderstood. Meng Mian probably didn't lie. I even saw Assistant Du ask her to deliver some documents to President Ji this morning."

Yao Ting sneered, then raised her voice even louder: "If she were really President Ji's girlfriend, would Assistant Du dare send her on errands, delivering documents?! He'd be treating her like royalty!"

The intern, Xiao Su, was already frantically explaining to Meng Mian, "Sister Mianmian, what happened in the lobby yesterday wasn't something I said, you have to believe me!"

Xiao Su was really panicked.

Yesterday, it was just her and Sister Mianmian carrying the display board to the lobby.

When Sister Mianmian bumped into President Ji, she was the only one in the HR department who saw it.

She just wanted to have a peaceful internship and didn't want to make enemies with anyone.

Seeing how flustered Xiao Su was, Meng Mian could only try to comfort her: "Many people saw it at the time, so it wasn't a secret. It's normal for her to have heard about it."

Xiao Su was too flustered just now. After Meng Mian comforted her, Xiao Su remembered that there were indeed many people in the hall at that time.

Not to mention others, there were several people at the front desk alone at the time.

Xiao Su finally calmed down, stopped panicking, and felt relieved.

Meng Mian then looked at Yao Ting with a sweet expression, but her words were sharp and cutting: "You're really not happy, no wonder you're overflowing with jealousy."

Yao Ting was so angry that she took a step forward: "You!"

She couldn't understand why Meng Mian's words were so hurtful and made her so angry.

Even though Meng Mian always fought back and didn't give in to her before, it was never very effective; she couldn't win an argument with her at all.

But now, Meng Mian's words have made her look like a clown.

She was still afraid that others would know that she was just as vain and materialistic as Meng Mian.

She feigned composure and even said with a touch of aloofness:

"I've discovered that you not only lie, but you also love to tell lies. This is the second time!"

"What am I jealous of about you! I'm jealous that you graduated from a third-rate university, and I'm jealous that you got into this company by some unknown means!"

"I'm jealous that you're not even Mr. Ji's girlfriend, yet you lied and spread rumors about her everywhere!"

"How dare you say I'm jealous—" you.

Before Yao Ting could finish speaking, there was a light knock on the HR department door.

Everyone immediately looked over.

Lu Chen stood there with an extremely formal demeanor.

Seeing them look over, Lu Chen smiled at Meng Mian and said with utmost respect and politeness:

"Ms. Meng, are you off work? Our CEO is waiting for you downstairs. We have a dinner date."

Everyone knows that Lu Chen is Ji Silin's special assistant.

Yao Ting's face flushed bright red instantly.

It felt like I'd been slapped hard across the face.

No matter how unwilling Yao Ting was to believe it, she knew that Meng Mian was indeed the girlfriend of Ji Silin, the head of a top-tier wealthy family.

She felt even more ashamed, especially since her colleagues were secretly glancing at her.

Meng Mian ignored Yao Ting completely and immediately checked the time on her phone.

Seeing that it was almost time to leave work, he picked up his bag and said, "Okay, time to go home."

Lu Chen led Meng Mian to the underground parking lot.

He appeared to be doing his job in a businesslike manner, but couldn't help stealing a glance at Meng Mian.

He finally understood what it meant to look completely different with and without makeup.

No wonder his brother kept praising their CEO's girlfriend's beauty after delivering the commitment letter that day.

He initially thought his brother had a problem with his taste, liking people who wore heavy makeup.

Meng Mian had no idea what Lu Chen was thinking.

However, she originally wanted to wear light makeup to work.

Everyone in the company wears makeup, and she felt she should also dress more formally.

But she was naturally beautiful with rosy lips, white teeth, and big, bright eyes.

Her skin is also exceptionally good; she doesn't need any concealer at all.

Wearing light makeup is worse than not wearing any at all.

Without makeup, she looks even more energetic and youthful.

That's good, it saves her from having to get up early every day to put on makeup.

Besides, it's August now, the weather is very hot, and she commutes to get off work by electric scooter. It's more comfortable and breathable for her face to be without makeup.

As soon as Meng Mian stepped out of the elevator and arrived at the underground parking lot, she saw three black luxury cars parked there.

There was a bodyguard standing in front of each car.

Upon seeing her, the bodyguard quickly opened the door of the middle Rolls-Royce.

The car door opened, and Meng Mian saw Ji Silin sitting inside.

His profile is austere.

A laptop was placed in front of him, and his long, slender fingers with distinct knuckles were typing away on it, clearly indicating that he was still working.

He only glanced at her with cold eyes after she had gotten on the bus and sat next to him.

He casually asked her, "Chinese food or Western food?"

Since she was given the choice, she didn't hold back.

Meng Mian, holding her bag, said, "Lunch, please."

Ji Silin didn't say anything.

Lu Chen was already on the phone, making arrangements, outside the car.

Take, for example, the recent grand hotel owned by the Ji family.

The bodyguard then closed the car door.

The car headed towards the grand hotel.

Ji Silin was still focused on her work, her expression completely blank.

Meng Mian didn't look at what work he was doing, nor did she disturb him.

He simply put on headphones in both ears and buried his head in watching short videos.

Sometimes I can't help but smile silently with my lips pursed.

If she were alone, and it wouldn't bother anyone, she would definitely burst out laughing instead of holding back.

Ji Silin finished her work and closed her laptop just as they were about to arrive at the hotel.

The car was so quiet that he forgot there was someone next to him.

He only saw Meng Mian when he turned his head.
