h4Chapter 283: Chapter 283: What perfume did you apply? It smells great!/h4

    Vice President Liu loungedzily in his chair, hands sped behind his head, lifting his eyelids to size up Ji Wei.

    What a figure this chick has.

    I wonder how it feels to touch her.

    Fueled by liquid courage, Vice President Liu didn’t even consider that someone like Ji Wei was far out of his league.

    "Vice President Liu, your signature will only take a few seconds, and then you can continue enjoying your lunch," Ji Wei said, trying to maintain patience.

    "Continue my lunch? You scared off my two prettypanions. What’s the point of eating alone now?" Vice President Liu scoffed, his refusal tant. His eyes kept darting to Ji Wei’s heaving chest. "Unless Miss Ji drinks with me," he added.

    As he spoke, he raised a ss of baijiu, filled to the brim, and shoved it toward Ji Wei.

    Ji Wei caught the lecherous glint in his eyes and felt a surge of nausea.

    How could someone like this rise to a senior position in the Gu Family’spany?

    Suppressing her disgust, Ji Wei coldly pushed the ss away. "President Liu, I don’t drink baijiu."

    "If you don’t know how, you can learn," Vice President Liu said with a raised eyebrow. "A woman as beautiful as Miss Ji not knowing how to drink baijiu is a tragic waste."

    Ji Wei had no desire to prolong the conversation and pressed him again, "Are you going to sign this report or not, President Liu?"

    Realistically, if Vice President Liu didn’t sign, Ji Wei could just wait for Gu Moqian to return and have him sign it instead. Initially, Ji Wei had no intention of bypassing her direct supervisor to go to Gu Moqian, as thepany had clear protocols.

    But after seeing Vice President Liu’s boorish antics, she suddenly changed her mind.

    "If you drink this ss of baijiu, I might consider signing," Vice President Liu said, his eyes still lecherously scanning Ji Wei.

    Ji Wei packed up the report and gave him a coldugh. "In your dreams."

    She turned to leave, but before she could take a step, Vice President Liu grabbed her wrist.

    "What’s this attitude? You’re my subordinate. Do you even know the meaning of basic respect?" Vice President Liu snapped sharply.

    "Let go," Ji Wei warned.

    Vice President Liu hesitated for a moment, unnerved by her icy demeanor, but unwilling to lose face, his grip tightened instead of loosening. Worse yet, he leaned his face closer to Ji Wei, sniffing as he said, "Women are more lovable when they’re gentle. What perfume are you wearing? It smells wonderful!"

    Ji Wei felt a wave of disgust ripple down her spine, goosebumps rising all over her body. She abruptly grabbed the lighter on the table and clenched it tightly in her hand.

    Completely oblivious to her actions, Vice President Liu prepared to press his sausage-like lips closer, aiming for a cheap thrill. But the next moment, a scream erupted from him as he recoiled, his face frozen in terror.

    His already sparse hair was now sprouting mes.

    "You’ve got some nerve, you crazy woman! How dare you set my hair on fire!" Vice President Liu iled his arms wildly, trying to extinguish the mes on his head. But as soon as his hands touched his scalp, the heat forced him to yank them back, and he began hopping around like a cat on a hot tin roof.

    Ji Wei watched the pathetic man, who now reeked of burning hair, with icy detachment. Her hand loosened slightly, and the me of the lighter extinguished in an instant.

    She flicked the lighter into the trashcan in the corner with a sharp arc, then turned away without sparing Vice President Liu another nce, a cold smirk lingering on her lips.

    Behind her, Vice President Liu’s terror only deepened. Seeing Ji Wei walk away just like that, he grew increasingly frantic. In desperation, he grabbed the ss of baijiu from the table and poured it directly over his head.

    Sizzle—

    A thin wisp of smoke rose from his head, apanied by a foul stench of burnt hair mixed with alcohol. Vice President Liu’s pudgy face, trembling with fat, was now soaked in baijiu, making him look pitiful beyond words.

    As Ji Wei stepped out of the private dining room, she could still hear Vice President Liu’s enraged howls from within. Yet she felt no stir of emotion whatsoever.
