Chapter 17 - DON'T OVER ESTIMATE YOURSELF

Just when they thought Tang Yutong would cry and run out feeling wronged, and might not even come to work tomorrow, they secretly rejoiced in their hearts. So what if she was the CEO's secretary?

In the end, she would still have to resign on her own. Look at what kind of person she was, and she still thought she was the CEO's secretary. Hmph! Who did she think she was?

But unexpectedly, Tang Yutong suddenly laughed, a sinister laugh. "Lin Jie, do you dare to bet with me?"

Lin Jie was stunned for a moment, then asked, "What do you mean?"

"Do you believe that I can get you and your brother kicked out of the Mo Group tomorrow?" Tang Yutong put down her coffee and tapped her slender fingers on the table, calmly looking at her.

Lin Jie laughed as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world. This wicked woman must be crazy. Let her and her brother be kicked out of the Mo Group tomorrow?

The onlookers' reactions were the same as Lin Jie's, laughing so hard that they couldn't stand up straight. This Tang Yutong was too shameless! Lin Jie's brother, Lin Qiang, was the manager of the planning department and was very important to the company. If he was kicked out, was she out of her mind?

"Tang Yutong, I advise you to take back what you just said and leave the company obediently. Maybe I won't hold it against you," Lin Jie raised her chin high, treating Tang Yutong's words as a joke.

Tang Yutong didn't answer, still asking the same question, "Do you dare to bet?"

"What's there to be afraid of? What do you want to bet on?" Lin Jie sneered.

"Let's bet on the CEO's attitude. If he tells you to leave tomorrow, not only do you have to leave, but you also have to apologize to me before you go. How about that?" Tang Yutong took a sip of her coffee, raised her eyes lightly, and looked at Lin Jie.

Lin Jie was taken aback for a moment, looking at Tang Yutong's confident expression. She suddenly had a bad feeling, but her impulsiveness overrode her rationality. She didn't believe that the CEO would listen to Tang Yutong.

Who did she think she was?

"Okay! I bet. What if you lose?" Lin Jie asked.

Tang Yutong smiled brightly, "If I lose, you can do whatever you want with me!"

"Good! It's a deal." Lin Jie's eyes sparkled with confidence. She didn't even consider Tang Yutong a threat. She believed that she would definitely win this bet.

Seeing this scene, Mo Jin's lips curled up in a sinister smile, his eyes cold as frost, without any warmth.

Tang Yutong had been hesitating all along. She wasn't sure if Mo Jin would help her. After all, he was the manager of the planning department and had a position to maintain. Suddenly removing someone from their position would be difficult to fill.

But thinking about it, it was a big company after all. Many job seekers were eager to come for an interview and work for Mo's company. She wasn't afraid of not being able to find someone.

But would Mo Jin really help her?

After work, she went home first. Mo Jin hadn't come back yet. She cooked a table full of dishes, the fragrance permeating the whole house, finally having that familiar taste.

She heard a sound outside the door, Mo Jin had come back. Smelling the aroma in the air and seeing the large table of dishes in the dining room, his face softened slightly.

"You're back? Let's eat!" Tang Yutong said, and went to prepare the tableware.

Mo Jin grabbed her wrist and led her to the sofa. He leaned in, his handsome face close to hers, his hot breath spraying on her face. His voice was magnetic and hoarse, with a hint of questioning, "Didn't you say you can't cook?"

"I really don't know how to cook foreign food." Tang Yutong's eyes flickered and she casually found an excuse. She needed his help now and couldn't offend him. She was a flexible person.

Mo Jin was a bit speechless. He sneered and left a row of neat teeth marks on her shoulder. He suddenly removed the gauze on her neck, revealing the wound that had already scabbed over and was much better.

"What are you doing?" Tang Yutong covered her neck and looked at him warily.

Mo Jin stood up, his height over 1.85 meters, with a graceful posture and a straight figure. He touched his slightly cold lips and his eyes were cold. "Don't forget our relationship. Even if I want to do something, the law cannot interfere with the affairs between husband and wife! You can try if you don't believe me."

His gaze went down, and Tang Yutong was wearing a dress today, revealing her snow-white thighs and shoulders, her hair a bit messy, arousing people's imagination.

Mo Jin's throat rolled and a fire burned in his belly, almost unable to restrain his reason. He sneered and went to the dining table.

Tang Yutong straightened her clothes and followed him.

After a meal, Tang Yutong looked at Mo Jin but didn't know how to speak.

Mo Jin pretended to know nothing and was about to return to his study when Tang Yutong spoke up.

"Mo Jin, wait a minute..."

Mo Jin paused and turned around with a cold sneer. "What is it?"

Tang Yutong explained the situation briefly, thinking that Mo Jin would help her.

But to her surprise, Mo Jin sneered, "Tang Yutong, do you have the qualification to make demands of me? Do you really think you are that important to me? You overestimate yourself."

Tang Yutong's heart sank as Mo Jin's words made it clear that he would not help her. She should have known he was this kind of person, but she still held a glimmer of hope.

Mo Jin returned to his study, and Tang Yutong sat on the sofa with a vacant look in her eyes and fell asleep.

Late at night, Mo Jin opened the door to his study and saw the small figure curled up in the corner of the sofa, sleeping restlessly with closed eyes and trembling eyelashes.

He frowned and coldly brought a thick blanket to lay her body flat and cover her with it.

The next morning after 8 o'clock, Tang Yutong woke up and remembered what happened last night. Her expression was dim, and since Mo Jin wouldn't help her, she had to...

When she arrived at the company, Lin Jie noticed her immediately and made a sarcastic remark, "Oh, little Yutong, didn't you have a way to get my brother and me kicked out of the company? What's wrong? Did Mo Jin scold you today?"

"What's your relationship with her?" Tang Yutong retorted coldly.

"Getting angry now that you've lost? Just apologize and maybe our sister Lin Jie will consider letting you off the hook!" The one who spoke was Jiang Yan, who had bullied Tang Yutong with Lin Jie a few days ago.

Others chimed in, thinking that Tang Yutong had no chance of winning and should just admit defeat.

But at that moment, Lin Jie received a phone call.

It was from her brother, Lin Qiang.

She was in a good mood, thinking that her brother must be calling about the competition. She had told him about it yesterday and he had promised that she would win, giving her even more confidence.

She answered the call, but instead of good news, she heard her brother's angry voice, with a hint of trembling.
