Step Aside, My CEO Ex-Husband! Chapter 1180 - 1182: Extra 15
Previously on Step Aside, My CEO Ex-Husband!...
He won’t tell Sister Fei, does he not even want to tell her?
This caught her off guard, she didn’t know how to handle it for the moment.
Chen Li admitted the relationship himself, what else can the company do besides acknowledging it.
Sister Fei came forward and confirmed Chen Li and Ling Xiaoxiao are indeed in a relationship!
Xia Ting hurried back and just happened to see Chen Li walking Ling Xiaoxiao out as she arrived at Chen Li’s doorstep.
The situation became extremely awkward, she wished she could find a hole to hide in.
"See you tomorrow." Ling Xiaoxiao gave him a peck on the cheek, then put on her hat and mask and left.
Ling Xiaoxiao stepped into the elevator and left, Chen Li turned back into his house without closing the door.
Xia Ting took a deep breath and followed him inside, closing the door behind her.
Following him, she said, "Why didn’t you tell me about being with her? How are we supposed to handle the media now that you suddenly announced the relationship?"
"This is my personal business, I don’t need to tell you, right? Can’t I date?" Chen Li turned around with a smirk, questioning her.
She could deceive him into going home for a blind date, why couldn’t he date!
"You can date, but you should give us a heads up so that we’re prepared!" Xia Ting’s face turned grim as he said it’s his private matter and unnecessary to inform her...
It’s only been a few days and he’s changed...
"There’s no need for preparation. I don’t need to hide when I’m dating!"
"The company contract specifies that you’re not allowed to date. You’re only twenty-three now, the contract says you can’t date until you’re twenty-six! Even if you want to date, you should be cautious and not make it public for now!"
"I can manage my own affairs, I don’t need your reminder!" Chen Li’s face turned dark. Again, she’s bringing up his age!
The most annoying thing is when she uses age against him, extremely annoying!
"If you were careful, you wouldn’t act recklessly! How will you account to the company now?! You worked so hard to get where you are, you can’t make a mistake now!"
"I don’t care about these things. If they want to terminate the contract, I’m not afraid; I can afford the penalty fees!" The clause prohibiting dating is what he dislikes most in the contract!
"For the sake of being with Ling Xiaoxiao, you fear nothing?" Xia Ting looked at him, astonished. Does he really like Ling Xiaoxiao that much?
For her, he’s willing to offend the company, forgetting his career and future.
"Yes!" Chen Li acknowledged.
"I have nothing to say." Xia Ting smiled slightly, turned, and walked toward the door, opened it, and left.
Chen Li stood there clenching his fists, restraining himself from going after her.
She went on a blind date, indicating he meant nothing to her, so why should he care!
Her kindness was just pity; she didn’t really like him!
Cutting off his own feelings like this is also fine!
The company was furious about Chen Li’s actions, and after Xia Ting explained for a long time, the matter was settled.
The company took the opportunity to propose a contract renewal; otherwise, they would immediately terminate Chen Li’s contract and demand triple the penalty fees!
Xia Ting agreed to the renewal but also set many conditions.
The company should no longer suppress Chen Li’s career, instead, put effort into promoting him.
It can only be a one-year extension. If the company doesn’t agree, they’re willing to pay the penalty fees and not renew.
The most crucial condition: they cannot interfere in his personal life, including dating!
The company, understanding the pros and cons, agreed to Xia Ting’s demands.
Chen Li is very popular at the moment; terminating the contract would not benefit either side, so it’s better to let things be!
These days Chen Li has been staying home and not going out, Xia Ting came to his house to find him.
She informed him about the contract, but instead of being happy, Chen Li grew angrier.
"What right do you have to renew my contract without asking?"
"..." Xia Ting was speechless for a moment, staring at him blankly.
She has always handled his matters, so this time she didn’t ask for his opinion.
