The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 400

"Jiayi, why don't you come along?"

"Now that Dai'er is the wife of the Huo Corporation, are you afraid she'll ruin the company?"

"We can be an iron triangle, wouldn't that be great?"

Song Xuechun was completely oblivious to Liang Jiayi's changing emotions and excitedly spoke.

Rong Dai, being perceptive, noticed Jiayi's hesitation.

"Jiayi, you don't need to feel pressured. If you want to come, come. Today, I'm just seeking your opinions, not asking you to sign the agreement right away."

"My assistant is taking care of some personal matters and won't be back for a few days. You can take your time to think about it. There's no rush."

What she needed was willing partners who would come to work with her voluntarily. Forcing someone wouldn't yield sweet results.

Moreover, she didn't want to interfere with Jiayi's own thoughts and use the friendship between her and the previous owner to bind her.

Upon hearing this, Jiayi nodded apologetically.

Song Xuechun's face immediately fell, and she walked straight to Jiayi, asking, "Jiayi, what do you mean? Didn't we discuss this before?"

"We were supposed to work together in the same company and fulfill our own dreams, right?"

"Now that Dai'er has given us such a great opportunity, why won't you agree?"

Helpless, Rong Dai realized that Song Xuechun had noticed her change and was letting herself go, disregarding the situation.

By asking Jiayi such a question in front of her, wasn't she putting Jiayi in an awkward position?

"Xuechun, Jiayi has her own considerations and plans."

"While I really want you both to come and work with me, I want you to come willingly and without any concerns."

She looked at both of them and explained earnestly.

Liang Jiayi rubbed the hem of her clothes, her face slightly flushed. After hesitating for a while, she said, "It's not that I don't want to come. It's just that I've already submitted my application for an exchange student program, and my advisor informed me of the results this morning."

"When did you submit it? Why didn't I know?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Song Xuechun jumped up and interrogated her angrily!

Rong Dai was exasperated. She should have met them separately.

"Last semester, I asked you about it."

Jiayi felt somewhat wronged. This opportunity didn't come easily, and she didn't want to give it up.

Although Rong Dai's offer was tempting, it wasn't enough to sway her.

"You..."

Song Xuechun sat down huffily, her face filled with anger and annoyance.

Seeing her getting angry, Liang Jiayi became even more uneasy, her face turning red.

Rong Dai inwardly sighed. She had brought trouble upon herself.

"Xuechun, I feel like having coffee from the café across the street. Could you please help me get a cup?"

She could only divert Song Xuechun's attention for now.

Otherwise, the atmosphere would only become more awkward.

Song Xuechun was not ignorant; she knew that Rong Dai was trying to ease the atmosphere. She grabbed her bag and turned to leave.

Once the others were far away, Liang Jiayi let out a heavy sigh, filled with helplessness and emotions that Rong Dai couldn't discern.

"Xuechun has always been like this. If you give her some time, she will easily accept it," Rong Dai consoled her.

Liang Jiayi rubbed her hands together, raised her eyes with a timid and apologetic look, and asked, "Dai'er, you... you won't blame me, will you?"

"Why would I? In terms of my selfishness, I did hope that you would come and help me."

"But you have your own thoughts, and I can't force you to stay here. It wouldn't make you happy, and the outcome of your work might not be what I want to see either."

Rong Dai smiled lightly, shaking her head as she explained.
