Forcing Me to Be a Godly Tycoon, Right?

Though she leaned forward just a bit, her figure was so good. Plus, the black suit she was wearing was a bit tight, making the lines on her back look incredibly beautiful.

Zhang Jingdong’s eyes blazed as he stared at her.

Even though he’s met many stunning women and seen them in various situations, this was the first time he’d had this kind of experience, having lived two lives.

No exaggeration, in his view, the visual effect right then was even more enticing than nudity, and his heart quickly surged with intense heat.

While pouring water, Lin Qingci repeatedly told herself not to think about Zhang Jingdong’s words just before, but often, the more you try not to think of something, the more your brain uncontrollably does.

Maybe it was because she knew Zhang Jingdong was definitely watching her at that moment, or maybe because his words had too much of an impact, but Lin Qingci slowly felt an indescribable thrill.

She suddenly recalled that night on the rooftop of Maple Forest Building with Zhang Jingdong...

In that instant, a massive heat surged in her heart too, and she even had the impulse to get intimate with Zhang Jingdong!

But a shred of remaining rationality quickly calmed her down, and she realized the lemon water she was pouring had already overflowed the glass.

She hurriedly set down the bottle, grabbed a few napkins to wipe the table, dealt simply with the overflowed water in the glass, and returned to her seat with the glass.

Zhang Jingdong took the glass and sipped, then chuckled, "President Lin, how’s it going, exciting?"

Lin Qingci rolled her eyes playfully, "... Not telling you."

"Haha... Here’s a little secret; just now when you were pouring water, I suddenly thought of that night at Maple Forest Building when you also poured me water."

Lin Qingci was both surprised and instantly rattled, "You... you’re not allowed to talk nonsense!"

As soon as she spoke, the six employees in the distance immediately looked over, but almost instantly they retracted their gaze.

Yet, inside they began gossiping intensely.

They had heard things about the big boss and their own boss before, but never seen it firsthand, and now...

Knowing Lin Qingci well, they all instantly concluded their boss was definitely with Zhang Jingdong.

Zhang Jingdong deliberately looked around and then said, "See, you’re rattled again, President Lin. You’re the Group Vice President now; you need to be composed and calm at all times!"

Lin Qingci realized she had lost her composure earlier, and instantly glared at Zhang Jingdong, "... It’s all because of you!"

Zhang Jingdong spread his hands wide, "... Alright, blame it all on me, okay?"

"Still dare to play games now?"

Feeling both ashamed and annoyed, Lin Qingci said defiantly, "Of course I do, I’m definitely going to beat you!"

"Love your competitive spirit. Come on... Scissors... Rock... Paper!"

This time Zhang Jingdong threw scissors, and Lin Qingci also threw scissors.

"Scissors... Rock... Paper!"

This time Zhang Jingdong again threw scissors, while Lin Qingci threw paper.

Zhang Jingdong burst into laughter, "See, Lin Qingci, sometimes you lose because you lack a bit of concentration; you need to learn from your mistakes!"

Lin Qingci seemed a bit miffed at this point and gave Zhang Jingdong a resentful look.

"Tell me, what’s the punishment?"

"If you speak more gently, I’ll give you a very simple punishment, but if you continue using that tone, I’ll be harsh!"

Though Lin Qingci and He Jieyu were best friends, she didn’t have He Jieyu’s stubborn nature; immediately, she cracked a smile, "Alright, Boss Zhang, what’s the punishment then?"

Zhang Jingdong was amused, "President Lin, you’re really skilled at adapting, aren’t you? Well, since that’s the case, I’ll deliver on my promise—your punishment is... to say something that excites me."

"Say something that excites you?"

Lin Qingci instinctively felt this punishment was indeed simple, as it wasn’t excessive at all, yet she quickly noticed something off in Zhang Jingdong’s eyes and immediately understood the true meaning of the punishment.

"Your punishment means..."

Zhang Jingdong couldn’t help but laugh, "Exactly, just as you thought... This should be quite easy for you now, right? After all, this doesn’t require any complicated actions, just a thoughtful sentence."

"But..." Lin Qingci’s face reddened again, "this punishment is quite difficult too, okay?"

Zhang Jingdong remained calm, "But this is currently the simplest punishment I can think of. You can’t expect me to let you off with any old sentence; otherwise, the game wouldn’t be fun."

Seeing Lin Qingci was still hesitant, he continued, "Want me to give you a daring type of punishment instead?"

Lin Qingci instantly shrank back.

The mere punishment earlier had put her in this awkward situation, and if he made her take on a daring challenge now, it wouldn’t be any less intense than the previous incident.

So, after weighing her options, she chose the lesser evil, "... Alright, I’ll go with this punishment, let me think..."

Zhang Jingdong leaned back comfortably against the sofa, "No problem, take your time, no rush. We want quality, not speed."
