Chapter 508: Chapter 508

This Ling Chuxia, although she indeed looks quite good and has a nice figure, when standing beside Ai Li, she could only be considered plain, right? Could it be... President Shi likes Chuxia’s type?

Manager Chen’s eyes flashed, and he quickly smiled and spoke, "Chuxia, why don’t you greet President Shi as well?"

Ling Chuxia was made so nervous by Shi Che’s gaze that she trembled all over and really wished she could just disappear, but to her surprise, the manager actually asked her to greet Shi Che.

With her current relationship with Shi Che, how was she supposed to greet him?

Ling Chuxia really wanted to ignore the manager’s words, but Lin Shasha was secretly pinching her, and the manager was also watching her closely. She forcefully swallowed and finally spoke up.

She had chosen to start a new life for herself and wanted to work well in this company. Therefore, her relationship with Shi Che couldn’t possibly be known by others, let alone reveal that she knew Shi Che.

After thinking it over, she greeted him just like Ai Li did, not even lifting her head but merely murmured softly, "President Shi, hello."

"President Shi, hello?"

These four words slowly reached Shi Che’s ears, and his dark pupils blinked. All the emotions that surged up at the sight of Ling Chuxia, the boiling feelings, froze at that moment.

He was her husband, yet she called him President Shi? As if they were complete strangers?

Shi Che’s lips curled slightly, but his gaze was icy. He looked at Ling Chuxia, his thin lips parted slightly, and his voice was indifferent and chilly, "Miss Ling, aren’t you going to shake my hand?"

Ling Chuxia’s heart felt like it was pricked by something, and there was a pang of pain; her hands in front of her body became even more tightly clenched, and she made no move.

Manager Chen, seeing Ling Chuxia’s rigid reaction, broke out in a cold sweat. What was going on with Ling Chuxia? Previously, Ai Li actively wanted to shake hands with President Shi, and President Shi ignored it, but now he was actively offering to shake hands with Ling Chuxia, and she gave no response?

With Shi Che here, Manager Chen couldn’t scold Ling Chuxia. He forced a smile and said to Ling Chuxia, "Chuxia, President Shi wants to shake hands with you, why don’t you hurry, hmm?"

Her last tone was deliberately emphasized, implying that Ling Chuxia should cooperate well. She also gave Lin Shasha a meaningful glance.

Lin Shasha understood and hurriedly pulled Ling Chuxia’s hand, whispering in her ear, "Xiaxia, what’s wrong with you? The manager is getting angry! If you offend President Shi, you might not be able to get out of this mess!"

Ling Chuxia also knew that her current state was unacceptable. If she didn’t want everyone to discover her affair with Shi Che, she had to remain calm and manage this dinner well.

Ling Chuxia closed her eyes, took a deep breath, then opened her eyes again, suppressing all the cluttered emotions in her heart, and slightly lifted her gaze. Still too afraid to look at Shi Che, her gaze fixed on his chin as her hand slowly reached out.

Shi Che glanced indifferently at Ling Chuxia’s hand but still reached out and shook hands with her.

The moment they shook hands, Ling Chuxia wanted to pull her hand back, but Shi Che’s hand tightened slightly, preventing her from pulling away. Then, she heard Shi Che’s low voice again, each word deliberate, "Miss Ling, you look very familiar, like someone I know."
