Chapter 1487: Guess the Load in the Mind
Usually, even if others invited her for a meal, she wouldn’t come. If a coupon was given to her, she would not even bat an eye.
As the vice president, it was a big honor for Jing Xiaolu to have a meal at this place, yet Sister Zhang had offended her terribly. Sister Zhang regretted it immediately. This restaurant isn’t even mine. Why am I such a busybody? What is the big deal with having a coupon to eat in the private room?
As Sister Zhang thought about it, she immediately put a smile on her face. She was the classic type of person that bullies the weak but is afraid of those who are strong. Otherwise, she wouldn’t keep quiet even when her boss still hadn’t paid her salary. Now that she was the receptionist of a super famous restaurant, she felt as if she had authority, and enjoyed making things difficult for customers that had seemingly average spending power. However, she never expected to kick the iron plate this time. She didn’t even dare to offend her relative who was the boss, and yet here she was, offending the vice president.
“Vice President Jing, I’m sorry… I shall prepare a private room for you…” Sister Zhang smiled at Jing Xiaolu apologetically and said. Her previous poker face immediately turned into an enthusiastic one. “602… no, let’s go with VIP room 999. This room is the most luxurious among the rooms on the top floor.”
After listening to Sister Zhang’s words, Jing Xiaolu didn’t know whether to be angry or laugh. Looking at how Sister Zhang acted, Jin Xiaolu couldn’t be angry at her. After her identity had changed, her way of thinking had also changed.
Maybe if it was her past self, she would say something arrogant, but she didn’t have the intention to do so now. However, she still felt a little proud deep in her heart after seeing how Sister Zhang’s attitude had changed. Jing Xiaolu was aware that Sister Zhang’s respectful behavior was solely because of her position as the Vice President of the Ming Yang Security Company. Without her current position, would Sister Zhang recognize who she was?
All of these were thanks to Yang Ming. Without Yang Ming, there was no way that she would be able to achieve her current position. As she thought about this, worries crept into Jing Xiaolu’s heart.
There was actually such a huge flaw when signing the contract. If this matter wasn’t settled properly, then even if Yang Ming didn’t say anything, her dignity would not allow her to keep the position of the vice president anymore.
“I don’t need any luxurious VIP private room. Just give me a normal one.” Jing Xiaolu didn’t come here to show off. She just wanted to find a quiet place to talk with Zhou Jiajia.
Since Zhou Jiajia had guessed that she had feelings for Yang Ming, Jing Xiaolu felt that she had no evil intent. It didn’t matter how she had found out. Instead, their relationship with each other had become much closer than before.
Jing Xiaolu had the urge to complain to Zhou Jiajia. After the contract scandal had happened, Jing Xiaolu had wanted to find someone to talk to and discuss it. She wanted to tell someone about her troubles. However, in the Ming Yang company, there was no such person. It was impossible to do so with Bao Sanli, as she was not close enough with him to the point where they could open up to each other. Jing Xiaolu would never tell him about her troubles, let alone confessing to the company’s underlings. After all, Jing Xiaolu could never even hold a conversation with them.
Now, she had met Zhou Jiajia. In this kind of situation, Jing Xiaolu really wanted to recount her troubles and worries to Zhou Jiajia. Even if Zhou Jiajia couldn’t help her, she would still feel much better if she said it out loud.
“Vice President Jing, please don’t take fault with this little one. Please don’t be offended.” Sister Zhang jumped up in fright when she heard Jing Xiaolu’s words and immediately said. “It was really unintentional. Please forgive me this one time…”
“Forgive you for what?” Jing Xiaolu was confused. She blanked out for a while and said, “What are you talking about?”
“I mean…” Sister Zhang saw the shocked face of Jing Xiaolu. She felt that it wasn’t a pretense, and so was confused. “You rejected my offer for the VIP room and insisted on using the small private room. Doesn’t that mean that you are angry at me?”
Listening to Sister Zhang’s words, Jing Xiaolu was dumbfounded. “How is this related to being angry or not? I only have one person with me. We just want to find a quiet place to chit chat. Just find me a smaller private room. I don’t have any need for luxurious rooms.”
Li Jixing could tell from Jing Xiaolu’s tone that she was not trying to make things difficult for Sister Zhang out of anger. She really did want a small private room. He immediately hinted at Sister Zhang. “Sister Zhang, since our Vice President Jing said that she wants a small room, then quickly find her one. Why are you spouting so much nonsense!?”
“Yes yes!” Sister Zhang suddenly realized, and immediately found a room located at the end of the corridor. No one should be bothering them at that place. She then said, “Then, let’s go with Room 330. That place is much quieter. I’ll find a waiter to bring you two up.”
“There’s no need for it, Sister Zhang. I can just accompany Vice President Zhang up.” Li Jixing raised his hands towards Sister Zhang and stopped her from finding a waiter.
“That’s fine, that’s fine.” Sister Zhang immediately replied and nodded her head. She had already displeased Jing Xiaolu greatly. She was hoping for Li Jixing to mention a few good words about her.
However, Jing Xiaolu didn’t seem to care about Sister Zhang at all. Her previous conversation with Sister Zhang was just her wanting to find a quiet place where she could talk. As for the room size, Jing Xiaolu didn’t really care about it.
Under the guidance of Li Jixing, Jing Xiaolu and Zhou Jiajia were brought to Room 303. It was the room located at the deepest part of the third floor. There was no one in the private rooms beside them, so it was very quiet. It was a good spot to have a chat.
“Vice President Jing, please enter. I shall take my leave now,” said Li Jixing in an honored matter after he welcomed Jing Xiaolu and Zhou Jiajia into the room.
“Alright, Little Li. Go do what you’re supposed to do.” Jing Xiaolu waved her hand to dismiss him.
After Li Jixing had turned around and left, a waitress at the restaurant came in to take their order. Jing Xiaolu and Zhou Jiajia had never eaten here before, and this was their first time visiting. The waitress decided to take the initiative and recommended a few specialties of the restaurant.
After the waitress left, the atmosphere of the room became awkward. Jing Xiaolu’s mind was burdened, and her head remained low while she kept silent. On the other hand, Zhou Jiajia was waiting for Jing Xiaolu to open her mouth. As time passed, the atmosphere of the room turned into a creepy silence.
“Xiaolu, why don’t you speak up?” Zhou Jiajia felt the pressure of the environment and decided to initiate the conversation.
“Jiajia, about the things you said before… You could tell that… I liked Yang Ming… How did you figure it out?” Jing Xiaolu took a deep breath. Although she felt that this question was a little sudden, she was still very curious as to how Zhou Jiajia managed to figure out her feelings.
“Hehe, you’re talking about this.” After listening to Jing Xiaolu’s words, Zhou Jiajia smiled faintly. So Jing Xiaolu was worried because she wanted to ask this question. “Xiaolu, there was nothing special behind it. If you’re talking about how I found out, I am actually unsure as well. It was just a feeling, an intuition.”
“Ah… In other words, do Sister Mengyan and the others realize it?” Jing Xiaolu was shocked. She was astounded by how exceptionally sensitive Zhou Jiajia was.
“They shouldn’t be able to.” Zhou Jiajia shook her head. “The reason why I could feel it was because I had gone through the phase you’re facing now as well. I had the same trouble as you before.
“Oh? What does that mean?” Jing Xiaolu’s eyes sparkled as if she felt something. Could it be that Zhou Jiajia wanted to give me advice?
“No matter whether it’s Chen Mengyan or Lin Zhiyun, they got together with Yang Ming naturally.” Zhou Jiajia sighed. “For me, the situation was pretty much the same as yours. Both of us wanted to pursue Yang Ming. That’s the reason why I could feel your emotions which were very similar to mine. Others would never have experienced this.”

“So that was it.” Jing Xiaolu’s eyes were wide open. She didn’t know how Yang Ming and Zhou Jiajia got together, but after hearing Zhou Jiajia’s explanation, she suddenly realized that they both had suffered the same fate. No wonder Zhou Jiajia could see some clues. It is because she had a similar experience to me.
“Hehe, does that mean that you admit to it now that I have guessed it right?” Zhou Jiajia looked at Jing Xiaolu’s stunned expression and asked.
Jing Xiaolu blushed and nodded her head. Since Zhou Jiajia had already guessed her inner thoughts, there was no need for her to hide it anymore. For this kind of stuff, it would not be beneficial to her if she were to hide it. She might as well just admit it. After all, Zhou Jiajia didn’t look like she wanted to make things difficult for her.
“I’ve been secretly in love with him for a long time …” Jing Xiaolu whispered, “However, there seems to be no progress …”
Chapter 1488: Unable to Refer to
Jing Xiaolu’s words caused Zhou Jiajia to be puzzled. No progress?
“How can there be no progress? Your car, and your position as the company’s vice president. Didn’t he give all of it to you?” Zhou Jiajia was curious. “If he didn’t trust you, how could he have given you such a heavy responsibility?”
“For this… how do I put it? Let’s just say that it was all because of a strange combination of events…” Jing Xiaolu also did not hide it. “I insisted on the car. You know how Yang Ming is. He is a very generous person. He and I can be considered as good friends; it’s quite normal for him to give me a car.”
Zhou Jiajia finally understood and nodded her head. So Jing Xiaolu was the one who asked for the car. She also knew about Yang Ming’s personality. He didn’t really care about money, so giving away a car was nothing much to him. However, Zhou Jiajia did not say anything further and silently listened to Jing Xiaolu’s words while waiting for her to continue speaking.
“As for the position of the Vice President…” As Jing Xiaolu talked about it, she couldn’t help but laugh bitterly. “This Vice President position was given to me because of the strange combination of circumstances I talked about earlier. Bao Sanli thought that I was Yang Ming’s girlfriend… So he suggested to Yang Ming to make me the Vice President of the company. You also know how he acts. Even if it was a normal friend, Yang Ming would not reject it. He just silently accepted the suggestion. I became the vice president just like that…”
“Ah?” When Zhou Jiajia heard about the strange circumstances mentioned by Jing Xiaolu, she felt that something was off. However, as Jing Xiaolu finished her sentence, Zhou Jiajia didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. How could such a funny incident occur? From the looks of it, she was indeed mistaken. It seemed like Jing Xiaolu really had no progress with Yang Ming.
However, even if that was the case, there were some things which Zhou Jiajia couldn’t help with. “Xiaolu, you remind me of my past self. But even if I want to give you a push, I am powerless to do so. The things that happened between me and Yang Ming really have no chance to be referred to nor replicated. For stuff like romance, you can only rely on your own efforts…”
“Is that so…” Jing Xiaolu was a little disappointed. She originally thought that she could refer to Zhou Jiajia’s experiences. Even if she didn’t manage to absorb her experiences, she could at least learn a little from it. However, it seemed like Zhou Jiajia was unwilling to tell her about them.
Zhou Jiajia’s eyes were very sharp. Since she could discern that Jing Xiaolu liked Yang Ming, how could she not notice how down Jing Xiaolu felt right now? Seeing how Jing Xiaolu appeared to be, Zhou Jiajia smiled lightly. “Xiaolu, if you are willing to listen, then let me tell you about what happened between me and Yang Ming. If you can find any inspiration, then that’s good. But if you feel that it’s useless, don’t blame me as well…”
Jing Xiaolu originally held no hope towards this matter anymore. After all, it was private between Zhou Jiajia and Yang Ming. Who would be willing to share their private matters? Jing Xiaolu also felt that she would not want to simply mention the happenings between her and Yang Ming to anyone either. However, she never expected Zhou Jiajia to be willing to tell her about it. This caused Jing Xiaolu to feel shocked and flattered as well.
“Jiajia, you’re so good!” Jing Xiaolu said happily. “Thanks for being willing to tell me this much!”
Zhou Jiajia shook her head. The reason why she wanted to help Jing Xiaolu was simply because of how similar her previous position was with Jing Xiaolu. Every day, she would be struggling in a whirlpool of emotions, and be unable to escape. She deeply understood the feeling of anxiousness Jing Xiaolu felt since she had also experienced it before. That was the reason why she was so friendly towards Jing Xiaolu.
Zhou Jiajia was not someone who was easily jealous. At that time, didn’t Chen Mengyan and Lin Zhiyun accept her sincerely? Because of that, Zhou Jiajia thought that after she had gotten the happiness she wanted, and had no reason to stop others nor make things difficult for them. In contrast, if she could lend even a tiny bit of strength to help others, she would feel a sense of gratitude.
“Yang Ming and I were classmates when we were in junior high school. During that time…” Zhou Jiajia opened her mouth and slowly talked about how she knew Yang Ming, and the process of them falling in love with each other. Her face was brimming with nostalgia as if she was reliving her love story that was so heartbreaking, and yet beautiful at the same time.
Jing Xiaolu originally thought that there was a thick wall between her and Yang Ming. However, after hearing about Zhou Jiajia and Yang Ming’s original relations with each other, she suddenly felt that the gap between her and Yang Ming was nothing! The barrier that blocked Zhou Jiajia from Yang Ming was far greater!
This girl, how persistent must she have been to grasp her happiness in the end? Jing Xiaolu was impressed and curious at the same time. Her eyes were wide open while she stared unblinking at Zhou Jiajia, and her ears were opened widely to listen to her story.
When Zhou Jiajia talked about how she had blocked a bullet for Yang Ming and become unconscious, Jing Xiaolu was completely shocked. For the person she loved, she could even give up her life. How much courage does this require?
Jing Xiaolu asked herself that if she was in the position of Zhou Jiajia, would she block the bullet for Yang Ming? Maybe I will? Maybe I won’t? Would I?
When Zhou Jiajia saw Jing Xiaolu’s thoughtful expression, she could vaguely guess what she was thinking. She smiled and said, “Xiaolu, are you thinking that if you were me, would you block a bullet for Yang Ming?”
At this point, Jing Xiaolu was in complete awe of Zhou Jiajia. This girl not only possessed an outstanding talent in the field of computers, but she herself was also like a computer. Her ability to accurately guess what others were thinking did not pale in comparison to a computer.
“To be honest…” Jing Xiaolu lowered her head. “Actually, deep down in my heart, I feel like I would block a bullet for him. But… I’m scared…When I imagine that the opposite side is holding a gun, I’m afraid that my legs would crumble…”
“It’s quite normal.” After hearing what Jing Xiaolu said, Zhou Jiajia did not laugh at her. “Actually, I still feel scared whenever I think about it. With the situation that day, everything was instinctual. My brain never processed that action; I had never considered whether to do it or not. At that time, I didn’t know what fear was. Only after doing it did I know how powerful the opponent’s gun was…”
“Ah?” Jing Xiaolu was shocked, “I thought you were very brave …”
“I am not…” Zhou Jiajia blushed. “If I really thought about it deeply, then even if I wanted to block the bullet, I wouldn’t have the courage to.”
“That’s right….” Jing Xiaolu nodded her head in agreement. “Just now I asked myself that if I was in your position, would I block the bullet for Yang Ming? At first, I was very certain that I would. However, after a while, my will was shaken because I was afraid…”
“Actually, we are all the same.” Zhou Jiajia said. “If you were there at that time, you only had that brief moment to decide and act. You wouldn’t have had the time to be afraid.”
“That’s true…” Jing Xiaolu nodded her head. “Jiajia, I misunderstood you at first. I thought that you were unwilling to let me use your experiences with Yang Ming as references. However, looking at it now, even if you want me to find an opportunity to help Yang Ming block a bullet, I’m afraid that it wouldn’t be so easy…”
“Nonsense!” said Zhou Jiajia. “Who would take the lead to block a bullet for someone else? Xiaolu, let me tell you. Even if you had a chance, you better not be silly. With how agile Yang Ming is, we don’t even need to help him block a bullet. If we were to go and block it for him, it would just be an unnecessary sacrifice.
Jing Xiaolu obviously wouldn’t assume that Zhou Jiajia said that because she didn’t want her to succeed in being together with Yang Ming within her dark and twisted heart. Since she said so, then it must be the case. Jing Xiaolu also knew how agile Yang Ming was. She was not suspicious about Zhou Jiajia’s words.
Moreover, if Zhou Jiajia really didn’t want her to be together with Yang Ming, then she wouldn’t have the attitude that she had now. She had sat with her and spoke to her peacefully about so many things.
Jing Xiaolu’s eyes that originally held a little disappointment suddenly lit up with the light of hope. At least, her starting point was much better than Zhou Jiajia. Yang Ming had initially hated Zhou Jiajia as well. However, even with the mountain in front of her, she managed to scale it. What was the thick wall between her and Yang Ming in comparison?
