After the flash marriage, the billionaire president eavesdropped on my thoughts

She pulled a wad of pesos from her wallet, not knowing how much to pay.

She originally thought that the coffee beans should not be particularly expensive, but she found out from Ji Fenghe that this store was very famous, and she bought so many, so it must not be a small amount.

So she simply took out all the pesos in her wallet.

I thought that if the amount was not big enough, I could just pay part of it in domestic currency, but in that case I would have to trouble the store owner to take it to the bank and exchange it for domestic pesos.

"She just said that she gave it to you as a small gift."

Song Mai refused without hesitation.

"How can that be possible? I am already very touched by this lady's kindness. How can I really take her things? Besides, she is doing it for your sake. You still have to pay for it."

As she said this, she put all the money in her hand on the cabinet.

Ji Fenghe looked at her, and the look in his eyes changed slightly.

Finally, he took out half of the stack of money she had put down and put it back in her hand.

"Not as much as you think. Let's go."

Since he said so, Song Mai stuffed half of the money back into his wallet and left the store with Ji Fenghe.

The location of this store is indeed remote. By the time Song Mai and Ji Fenghe left the store and found a restaurant that looked pretty good, it was already dinner time.

Ji Fenghe said he was hungry but he wasn't really that hungry. It was Song Mai who was really hungry.

She had hardly eaten anything at noon, and had run so far to buy coffee, so after a few hours she was starving.

Even the Western food, which she had never been interested in, tasted much better to her than usual.

Song Mai ate voraciously and hardly even said a word to Ji Fenghe.

Compared with her indescribable eating manners, Ji Fenghe's are elegant and good-looking.

But he is good-looking, so even if his eating habits are exaggerated, it probably won't look ugly.

When the two of them had almost finished their meal, Lu Xun called and asked Ji Fenghe when he would return to the hotel.

When he learned that he was with Song Mai, he asked him to ask Song Mai as well.

The two had originally planned to go back after dinner, and Song Mai didn't have the energy to go shopping any further.

She was carrying a large bag of coffee beans and asked the waiter to pay the bill. The waiter, wearing a black suit and bow tie, came over very gentlemanly.

"Your table has already paid for itself."

Song Mai was stunned and subconsciously looked at Ji Fenghe.

The man was adjusting his clothes, and his gray suit jacket was slightly wrinkled.

"Manager Ji, it was agreed that I would treat you to this meal. Why are you…"

It was he who clearly agreed to let her treat him in the afternoon.

Ji Fenghe stood up after tidying up his coat.

"I don't have the habit of letting girls treat me to dinner. Let's go. I guess Lu Xun has something important to say, otherwise he wouldn't call to ask."

"but……"

Song Mai wanted to continue talking. She wanted to say that even if that was the case, she couldn't let him treat her to a meal.

What's going on?

It was clearly because she wanted to thank him that she offered to treat him to a meal, but now not only did she not return the favor, but he was the one treating her instead.

However, just as she opened her mouth, Ji Fenghe interrupted her.

"It's just a meal, don't take it to heart."

But how could Song Mai not take it to heart?

What she hated most was owing favors to others, and she secretly decided that she must find an opportunity to repay them.

When the two returned to the hotel, everyone else had already arrived, except for them. The others saw that they came back together, and they looked at each other with deep meaning in their eyes.

Li Li from the Marketing Department immediately joked:

"I was wondering why we encountered so many language problems when we went out for the city walk this afternoon. It turns out that both of our translators were not here."

Others also followed suit.

"Yeah, they were both gone at the same time. Where did they go? It turns out they went shopping together."

"Are you going out together or on a date?"

"It must be very smooth for two Spanish translators to date in a Spanish country."

Song Mai didn't expect that they had imagined so much about him just because he came back with Ji Fenghe.

She quickly explained: "It's not what you think. We just happened to meet when we were buying coffee beans, and then we came back together."

This time even Lu Xun joined in the fun:

"Is it that simple? When I called you not long ago, you were having dinner together. It doesn't seem as simple as meeting each other to buy coffee beans and then coming back together, right?"

When the others heard Lu Xun say this, and also heard that the two of them were having dinner together, they immediately started to make a fuss even more enthusiastically.

"That's what I was saying. Why did Manager Ji temporarily join our project team this time? Was he worried that the newcomer would make a mistake and affect the project, or was he worried about the person?"

"I was wondering why we were the only ones having dinner together, it turns out they have somewhere else to go."

The more they talked, the more excited they became. They were trying to force two people who had nothing to do with each other to have some kind of relationship.

Song Mai opened her mouth several times to explain, but everything she said was automatically ignored by everyone.

Ji Fenghe, on the other hand, was sitting on the sofa with a gentle smile in his eyes. No one knew what he was thinking. He neither denied nor explained.

Song Mai was so anxious that she almost asked him directly why he didn't explain.

Or the girl from the Legal Department couldn't stand it anymore and came to Song Mai's rescue:

"You men never stop joking. You can even make a dead person come alive. We are from the same department, so we must be familiar with each other. What's wrong with meeting each other outside and having a meal together? Do you really have to eat with us?"

Lu Xun's previous words were just a joke because he saw everyone was joking and making a fuss, so he just said something to join in the fun. It didn't have any real meaning.

Seeing that Song Mai was extremely anxious at this moment, everyone had no intention of stopping and cleared their throats and said.

"Okay, just joke around, don't take it too far. We are all colleagues, and we should take care of each other when we are out. Things didn't go smoothly today, and everyone is upset. I hope everyone can encourage each other and don't be discouraged. You guys are really good at making trouble, and you were very eloquent just now. Go battle with that Basque tomorrow, and don't suffer the same loss as today."

As expected, when the matter of negotiation with Basque and others was mentioned, the group of people who were high spirits just now immediately looked gloomy.

No one was happy about what happened today, which was why Lu Xun did not stop everyone from making a joke just now, and he even said something in it, just to help everyone calm down.

It's just that I didn't control the degree of the joke.

Everyone calmed down and apologized to Song Mai.
