Chapter 1020 - 29: As Your Only Ex-Girlfriend, I Still Have This Privilege
Ye Cheng’s handsome face was expressionless as he glanced at her."I..." Zimei was momentarily at a loss for words, but steadied herself and said, "You mentioned working overtime at the office, so I came to find you."
"Is there something you need?" Ye Cheng asked in a cold tone.
It was almost eleven at night.
"No, I just wanted to see you," Zimei said frankly.
Ye Cheng quietly looked at her for several seconds, then pushed open the glass door and walked into the office area.
Zimei stared blankly as he went inside, turned on the lights, and headed to his office. She stood there hesitating whether to go in, but finally, she gritted her teeth and stepped inside.
After all, he hadn’t told her to leave.
Ye Cheng turned on the computer, and before sitting down heard the sound of high heels nearing. He looked up at her and asked, "Why did you come in?"
"You do your work, I’ll just sit here, I won’t disturb you," Zimei said with a smile, walking straight to the black leather sofa and sitting down.
"This isn’t a living room, if you want to sit, go home," Ye Cheng said coldly.
"Then give me your keys, I’ll go to your place," Zimei half-jokingly extended a hand to him.
Ye Cheng looked at her smiling face and instantly grew colder: "Nonsense."
Throwing out four words, he ignored her and sat down to start working.
Zimei watched the man’s focused side profile for a long time, unable to get enough.
Knowing the woman was studying him, Ye Cheng sat there with a stiff back, feeling uneasy. But he didn’t want to argue further because no matter what he said, Zimei always had a retort, just like earlier.
Zimei curled her legs on the sofa, remaining silent.
The office was quiet, especially tranquil.
About half an hour later, Zimei suddenly stood up and walked out.
"Where are you going?" Ye Cheng asked, seeing Zimei’s bag still on the sofa, unable to help himself.
Zimei turned back with a radiant smile: "A Cheng, do you care about me?"
Ye Cheng: "..."
With no response from Ye Cheng, Zimei left the office in good spirits.
After she left, only he was left in the office, the dark hue unfeelingly cold in the early hours, giving a sense of solitude.
Ye Cheng stared at the door for a while before looking away.
But not long after, Zimei returned.
Upon hearing movement, Ye Cheng resisted looking.
She carried two cups of coffee, gracefully approached the desk, leaned over, and handed him one: "Have some coffee to wake up, it won’t be so tiring."
The woman’s red lips moved, her enchanting voice especially captivating in the quiet room.
Ye Cheng’s phoenix eyes lifted slightly, glancing at the steaming coffee in her hand, but he didn’t reach out to take it.
Zimei placed the coffee beside his hand, then picked up the other cup to sip: "Ever thought about hiring a female assistant? Such things a female assistant would handle with more ease."
Ye Cheng silently tapped the keyboard, not speaking.
"Because of me, do you hold any bias against women?" Zimei continued.
"You really think highly of yourself," Ye Cheng finally looked up at her, speaking indifferently.
"Yes, being your only ex-girlfriend grants me that privilege," Zimei responded, unaffected by his cold sarcasm.
Thinking about how Ye Cheng’s only love was her, Zimei’s mood suddenly improved.
Ye Cheng coming to the office so late, unwilling to go home and sleep, he must be purposely avoiding the female artist at home, right?
