I learned a bit before... Sometimes when I don’t have time to go out for lunch at the company, I just cook something in the kitchen area of the break room.
Hearing him say that, Ye Xinluo felt relieved and stood by watching him cook.
Although Beichen Rui asked her to cook, it was mostly Mo Han who did it. Once the porridge was ready, it was served in front of Beichen Rui.
"It’s just average," Beichen Rui took a bite and gave his assessment.
Mo Han: "..." Boss, can you stop undermining me like that?
"Really?" Ye Xinluo asked.
"Yeah." He held up a spoonful to her, and Ye Xinluo didn’t mind and ate it. After a moment, she said, "I think it’s okay!"
"Really?" Beichen Rui raised an eyebrow, "Is it really okay?"
"Yeah, I think it’s pretty good."
Upon hearing this, Beichen Rui put the spoon back in the bowl and said indifferently, "I won’t eat anymore."
"Huh?" Ye Xinluo was puzzled... What is this guy up to?
Mo Han on the side: "..."
His eye twitched fiercely... Boss, do you have to be like this? Assistant Ye just said the food I made was okay, wasn’t that enough for you?
He pursed his lips, feeling a bit dissatisfied.
As if sensing his small moves, Beichen Rui lifted his eyelids and glanced at him.
Mo Han immediately composed himself, not daring to voice his opinion, when Beichen Rui’s voice sounded, "The company is busy with the anniversary event lately, I probably won’t be able to attend, so you’ll take charge. Just leave a few bodyguards, that’ll be enough."
... Was he being shunned? Boohoo, boss actually dislikes his presence here and wants him to leave!!!
Truly someone who prioritizes romance over friendship.
...
Early the next morning, Mo Han left H City. Before leaving, he informed her that Gong Shaoyu had already returned to America.
Ye Xinluo then realized that he had actually gone back. After Mo Han left, she tried to call him, but the line showed that he was unreachable.
Just as she was about to put her phone away, the screen suddenly lit up with a WeChat message from Lan Shan. She opened it to see,
"Xinluo, where are you? Are you okay? Call me back."
Ye Xinluo dialed Lan Shan’s number, worried about disturbing Beichen Rui, she specifically stepped out onto the balcony outside the hospital room to take the call.
The call connected, and Lan Shan’s slightly anxious voice came through, "Xinluo, where are you right now? I called Assistant Mo, and he said you’re in H City. What’s going on? Why did you go there?"
Ye Xinluo replied, "There’s something here, and it might be a while before I can come back."
Beichen Rui is still in the hospital, and it’s uncertain how long he’ll have to stay... It’s not easy to determine a return date.
Upon hearing this, Lan Shan was not much reassured, "Xinluo, where did they take you that day? And that evening, Assistant Mo went out and hasn’t come back yet. Why did you both end up in H City? Did something happen?"
"No." Not wanting her to worry, Ye Xinluo chose to lie.
"Really?" Her tone was full of doubt; she wouldn’t believe nothing had happened if Xinluo suddenly ran off to H City. "Xinluo, stop lying to me, what exactly happened? Also, Brother Gong is missing, too, and you say nothing’s wrong, do you really think I’ll believe that?"
... Ye Xinluo was a bit embarrassed; she really wasn’t cut out for lying, it was so easy for her to be seen through.
Shanshan’s intuition was so spot-on, she could change careers and become a detective.
