Pretending to Be the President's Wife
Yi Ren continued to be lost in her thoughts!
She didn't even notice that Ji Minze had walked out of the office and come to her desk.
"Secretary Yi! Secretary Yi!"
"Ah?" Yi Ren looked up and almost reflexively stood up. "President, is there anything I can do for you?"
"Please make me another cup of Blue Mountain coffee. I haven't had pure coffee for a while," Ji Minze still said gently.
"Sorry, I thought you liked pure coffee. I'll make you a new cup right away," Yi Ren said and reached out to take the coffee cup from Ji Minze's hand.
In the pantry,
Yi Ren was a bit frustrated. She didn't know why she had made pure coffee for the president. She clearly remembered that the president had asked for a cup of Blue Mountain coffee. But just now, she seemed to be grinding the coffee beans and brewing the coffee out of habit without thinking deliberately.
She quickly brewed another cup of Blue Mountain coffee and brought it to Ji Minze.
"I'm really sorry. I'll pay attention next time," Yi Ren apologized after putting the coffee down.
"It's okay. Don't worry about it," Ji Minze was still looking at the documents. He reached out to take the coffee cup and took a sip.
"Thank you, President," Yi Ren said and then walked out of the president's office.
He wasn't a harsh boss!
Yi Ren was satisfied with this discovery.
"Can you do me a favor?" Ji Minze said such a sentence to Yi Ren who brought the documents in.
"As long as I can manage it," Yi Ren placed the documents in front of Ji Minze and said.
His always gentle and humble attitude and the request made it hard for her to refuse.
"I want to see the child tonight. Can you accompany me?" Ji Minze said.
Every word was very clear,
but Yi Ren felt that she didn't quite understand.
"Why?" Yi Ren asked in surprise.
It sounded a bit ridiculous that a president's secretary accompanied the president to see his illegitimate child.
"I need your help," this was the reason Ji Minze gave, but it didn't seem to make much difference whether he gave it or not.
"You're worried that if you go to see the child alone, your wife will misunderstand you even more," Yi Ren put her hands behind her back and stated the reason she thought.
"No. I don't want the child's mother to misunderstand," Ji Minze said directly.
Tang Lei had come back with the child!
"But I don't know how I can help you," Yi Ren said.
What could she do to help him?
She was just his secretary!
"Just pretend to be my wife when we're there," Ji Minze looked into Yi Ren's eyes and said.
"Er... This joke seems to be going a bit too far. Don't they know your wife? Will they believe it just because you find someone to pretend randomly?" Yi Ren simply couldn't accept it.
"Just stay with me all the time and act as if you're my wife. I'll handle the rest," Ji Minze said.
Yi Ren really wanted to go up and check if Ji Minze had a fever on his forehead!
Finding someone randomly to pretend to be his wife,
only someone with a muddled mind would do such a thing.
"What if I give myself away?" She really didn't have confidence in her acting skills, especially when it came to playing such an important role.
"You won't. There's no one in this world more suitable for this than you," Ji Minze said affirmatively, because no one would act badly as themselves, and no one was more suitable to play themselves than themselves.
"You're so confident?" She had no confidence in herself, but he had so much confidence in her!
"I'm very sure," Ji Minze nodded and said.
"Okay. Since I promised to help you just now, I'll pretend to be your wife once. We can only treat it as a last resort," Yi Ren thought for a while and then agreed.
This task really gave her a headache!
"I'll pick you up around eight o'clock tonight," Ji Minze said finally.
"Okay," Yi Ren nodded.
She walked out of the president's office, still feeling as if she was in a fog and couldn't figure out the situation.

At the Long Mansion,
Yi Ren was on the phone with Cheng Yuxuan.
"Are you very familiar with Ji Minze?" Yi Ren asked Cheng Yuxuan.
"Very familiar," this was the truth. He had known Ji Minze, who was a few years older than him, since he was a child.
"Then you should know where Ji Minze's wife is now, right?" Yi Ren asked again.
It seemed she had found the right person!
"I know," Cheng Yuxuan said concisely. Wasn't she the one calling him right now!
He just didn't know what Yi Ren was up to.
He was really going to be driven crazy by Yi Ren sooner or later.
He was now discussing Yi Ren herself with Yi Ren!
"Can you tell me? I want to find an opportunity to meet her," Yi Ren said excitedly.
A woman who could capture Ji Minze's heart was definitely not an ordinary woman, and now she was actually going to pretend to be her!
"That might not be convenient. Why are you asking this all of a sudden?" Cheng Yuxuan asked with a headache.
Was he supposed to tell Yi Ren that in fact, Ji Minze's wife was herself, but she just forgot about it?
