Triplet’s Secret Chapter 38

Chapter 38 Rivalry Between Women

Zhong Zhen knew that she needed to retaliate indirectly and not head on, “Has Chen been unreasonable? If superstar Jiang needs my escort service just to feel valued, I can do it. It is understandable.”

Jiang Yingyou realized then that she had met a rival, even though both her own identity and career were superior to Zhong Zhen’s. But she was not confident that she could win over Feng Beichen as she couldn’t seem to grasp the type of woman he liked.

“Huh, how opinionated.” Jiang Yingyou let out a cold snort as Zhong Zhen’s words directly attacked her insecurities. But even if she felt uncomfortable, there was nothing that she could do.

Zhong Zhen’s task was almost done, so she didn’t have the intention to escalate the situation with Jiang Yingyou. This was just a task for her, and she had to do well to satisfy her boss.

She didn’t want to continue the conversation and she could stop acting without Feng Beichen around. Jiang Yingyou kept her silence, but with anger boiling inside her, she needed to retaliate.

“It’s better for a woman to keep a realistic dream. Those who bite more than they can chew will only hurt themselves, and it isn’t worth it.” Jiang Yingyou pressured her with a sharp gaze.

For someone who understands this concept, why is she doing the same? Then it must be human nature to not realize the issue when it occurs on themselves.

Zhong Zhen chuckled, “Good, then I will remind Ms. Jiang with your own advice. A relationship goes both ways, even if one works very hard for it but the other is not interested, it is a useless struggle.”

The words spoken stabbed into Jiang Yingyou’s heart; never had she been ridiculed as such by anyone before. She was aggravated once again and wanted to lash out at Zhong Zhen, but she knew that it would show that the words had made an impact.

“Hehe, Ms. Zhong. It is good to be articulate, but sometimes you might hurt yourself and others if you cross the line.” Jiang Yingyou had a tiny smirk on her face while staring at Zhong Zhen; she kept a dignified yet indifferent look on.

It had been a good show, and this was enough! Zhong Zhen did not want to do more than she should as Feng Beichen did not have any significant relationship with her, and there was nothing to argue over.

“Thank you, Ms. Jiang, for the reminder.” Zhong Zhen answered calmly. Both of them wanted to cease the dispute, and thus the fight was concluded.

Zhong Zhen escorted Jiang Yingyou to the ground floor, then toward the exit as an act of generosity.

With that, there was no concern that anyone who saw them would start a rumor on Jiang Yingyou’s intention to visit the company.

When Zhong Zhen returned to the top floor, she rushed to the guest room but only found an empty room with the unfinished lunch.

Where could he be? When Feng Beichen saw that Zhong Zhen had finally found him at his desk, he ordered coldly, “Prepare the lunch.”

“Yes.” Zhong Zhen swiftly went out, took the lunch, and brought it to him. The lunch prepared by Jiang Yingyou was left in the guest room. Zhong Zhen did not know what to do with it, so she brought it to Feng Beichen’s office as well.

“Mr. Feng, the preparation is done. As for the lunch prepared by Ms. Jiang, why don’t you give it a try?” Zhong Zhen was unsure of what to say so she randomly asked a question.

She instantly regretted it once she finished the sentence and frowned at herself. Why do I sound like I’m being bitter?

Feng Beichen noticed her frown as he stared at her and said, “You can have it.”

What is she thinking? Could she be attracted to my handsome physique? When you think about it… if a man can be attracted to a woman, why can’t a woman be attracted to a man? If a man can be jealous, then why can’t a woman be?

The intimate actions of Zhong Zhen and Feng Beichen could be perceived as flirting to anyone who saw them.

Zhong Zhen felt uncomfortable with the situation but she replied with a gentle yet professional voice, “Thank you, please have your lunch before it gets cold.”

It is better to have the meal before it turns cold, right?

Feng Beichen nodded and continued his work. After he finished his work, he left to wash his hands and have his lunch.

Zhong Zhen observed him when he was eating his lunch as she secretly acknowledged that he was indeed a handsome man. No wonder there were many women who would fall in love with him.

Feng Beichen looked up sharply and asked, “What are you doing? Are you not eating?”

Zhong Zhen looked at the time and immediately ate her food speedily without being able to savor it properly.

This person is too rigid with his schedule; it must be tiring to live his life. Shouldn’t he have a more relaxing lifestyle?

But when she compared his life to her current situation, she could only swallow her words. There was a huge gap between their living standards; she felt that she was not qualified to make comments on his choices.

After working for a while, she went to the pantry to give herself a break, but she ran across Zhang Junyan.

Zhong Zhen greeted her superior professionally, “Good afternoon, Ms. Zhang.”

It was common sense to reciprocate a polite greeting. However, Zhang Junyan seemed to think differently as she said, “Why were you rude to Jiang Yingyou?”

The words sounded peculiar to Zhong Zhen’s ears. It was as if Zhang Junyan was being sarcastic and complimenting her at the same time.

Zhong Zhen was startled by the unexpected response from Zhang Junyan. She recollected herself and answered politely, “It was Mr. Feng who wanted her to leave.”

She had acted as accordingly to Feng Beichen wish. No matter whether the order was conveyed explicitly or implicitly, it was her responsibility to carry it out.
