Wait...I couldn't be this unlucky right?...No way...No way!
The sudden realization dawned on her and the shock was too big to contain.
Zhi Ruo's face scrunched up, her eyebrows furrowed, her lips slightly opened from shock and her eyes showed confusion.
That was probably the first time she was so expressive in front of her family. Well for the old Zhi Ruo it was most definitely the first time...
Well here goes her old persona...༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ
" Zhi Ruo, is there something wrong? " her mother gently inquired, trying to conceal the shock on her face: it was such a rare occasion that she showed any type of reaction except a small smile.
Zhi Duyi and Zhi Chao also looked to Zhi Ruo who quickly flashed a small smile, almost unseeable, trying to conceal her earlier weird face.
However, it was already too late...
" Do you need help at the company? " Zhi Duyi asked.
" Have you encountered any problem? " Zhi Chao also jumped in to ask.
Both cold voices sounded completely neutral but the worry in their voice was still present.
" No, I just remembered that I forgot to do something. " Zhi Ruo quickly dodged the subject and continued to eat.
" Do you need me to boil you some supplements? Or take an appointment for doctor Lu to come to see you? " Hui Yin worriedly demanded.
Hearing this, it took Zhi Ruo a couple of seconds to digest the feeling of being intensely cared about. She smiled to herself, " It's kind of nice. "
" No, I am perfectly fine. " Zhi Ruo finally said.
" Are you sure? We could do a whole body checkup at the same time. " Zhi Chen proposed.
" No, I am sure. " Zhi Ruo answered, a bit scared of the radical actions her family members were about to take just because she made a facial expression...⚆ _ ⚆
" Then do you want me to bring you to the company. " Zhi Chao looked at his sister with a serious look.
" Don't worry, I am really fine. " Zhi Ruo said in an almost exasperated voice.
" Isn't it suppose to be normal to move your face sometimes...? " she wondered, weirded out...( ⚆ _ ⚆ )
The family members looked at each other in confusion but after seeing Zhi Ruo continue to eat like normal, they simply dispersed this worry but kept it in their back of their mind.
As for Zhi Ruo, she was literally banging her head in her mind, trying to call out the freaking god that put her in this position.
" Hey dude, come out real quick, I promise I won't beat you up!! " Zhi Ruo called out in her head.
After a short moment, Zhi Ruo elegantly wiped her mouth and hurriedly headed upstairs to try and digest the information.
" Zhi Ruo? Where are you going? I thought you had a meeting at the company this morning? " Zhi Chao asked: his sister was always a responsible person so her schedule was always perfectly timed.
Zhi Ruo who was going up the stairs: " ... " How do you even know my schedule M. President?!
" I forgot something. " Zhi Ruo answered in a neutral tone before quickly going up the stairs.
" It's kind of overwhelming but it feels kind of nice to have such a caring family..." Zhi Ruo lightly smiled inwardly.
Rushing back into her bedroom, she fished out her phone and hesitatingly typed the male lead's name into the search bar.
The results immediately popped up and she clicked on a link with a picture of the male lead.
Seeing the picture of the handsome man and the description of his company, her eyes widened and her breathing nearly stopped.
She was suddenly filled with the memories of the horrible torture she went through just to barely finish reading the romance novel..." No! Please no! I can't survive this sadistic book! I can't I can't! "
While remembering how sad her ending was in the original book, Zhi Ruo lost consciousness...
...
Yeah, she wishes!
" Gosh!! Why am I not fainting! I don't want to be in this world!!! Just let me faint to convince me it's a dream!!" Zhi Ruo cried out of frustration and punched her pillow.
God who was currently watching: " Isn't it a bit too late to try and think it's a dream...? "
" You freaking god! Come here! Let's have a rational talk! I promise I won't strangle you nor cling onto you till you drop me in another world!!! " Zhi Ruo raged. (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻
God: " ... " Let's quickly leave and never come back.
Fortunately, the walls in her room were soundproof or people would accuse her of getting possessed by a raging cat!
After lashing out her anger, she finally calmed down and thought, " Well who cares...I'll leave tomorrow's problems for tomorrow's me. Now I already have a lot of problems, let's take care of the urgent ones before the other ones. "
After barely venting off her frustrations, she replaced her slightly tussled clothes and hair before heading out, saying goodbye to her parents and brother on the way.
Sitting in the luxurious car, Zhi Ruo felt her breath hasten as she slowly touched the driver's wheel. " This is probably the most expensive leather I have ever touched..."
Zhi Ruo slightly panicked as she tried to align every information about her company with her current memories.
" Yeah...I never understood how female protagonists that transmigrated adapt so fast to their lifestyle..."
Zhi Ruo took a deep breath and tried to enter in her cold persona.
Building up a facade was her forte.
...
" Well, here we go..." Zhi Ruo took a deep breath and confidently walked into the gigantic building.
Her high heels clicking on the floor in a symmetrical rhythm, her cold aura overflowing her surroundings and her presence boosting to it's maximum.
" Welcome President Zhi! " all the employees of the main floor building stopped that was present stopped what they were doing and welcomed her in unison.
" Hmm, keep up the good work. " Zhi Ruo calmly responded as she stepped into the elevator.
Going to the top floor, she was now completely immersed in her role and naturally walked into her huge office.
" Lin Xia, bring me the meeting's documents and immediately head to the conference room afterwards. I'll come in after a short moment. " Zhi Ruo ordered before sitting at her desk and opening a few files from her computer desktop.
Lin Xia was her personal secretary, she was not really tall and had a cute face. Despite giving off clumsy and lost vibes, Lin Xia was very diligent and focused. Coming out as the top student of her university, she was responsible and organized so Zhi Ruo really liked her.
Reading over the documents typed by the previous owner, she scanned the context and tried to memorize as much information as she could and started to plan her speech while presenting this project to others.
As a hacker, she had a great memory for long codes and for talking and socializing skills, she gained them all by talking to clients while she was a wedding planner. Her organizing and memorizing skills were definitely coming in handy.
After a while, Lin Xia peeked out her head from the door and informed Zhi Ruo, " We are ready for you President. "
" Hmm. Let's go. " Zhi Ruo said.
I'm fat, I'm a bat and a cat! I'm fat bat cat! That's why I have seven lives to be lazy...I don't do I...?... This is basically my apology...I'm sorry...
