Ji Rui didn't directly respond to her words, but looked at her deeply, "Le Tong, come back, okay?"
Le Tong was stunned for a moment, it took her a while to realize what he meant by coming back.
"Mr. Ji..."
She spoke with difficulty. After all, he had just helped her with such a huge favor, so refusing was hard to articulate.
Ji Rui stared at her intently, "I can ask for a thank-you gift, can't I?"
Le Tong was stunned again. The two stared at each other in silence for a while before Le Tong responded awkwardly, "Mr. Ji, can we choose something else?"
To be honest, she wasn't mentally prepared to come back to work.
If possible, she didn't want to use this as a thank-you gift. But she had already accepted his favor, and refusing seemed unreasonable.
Ji Rui's inscrutable gaze never left her, "If I said no, would you hate me?"
In the past, Ji Rui had never thought about who would hate him, nor had he cared about it.
