She laughed coldly on the inside. Bai QianWei at least had some IQ. She understood to use a method where it’ll look as if she was being helpful but instead was actually hurting her. Ah…if it were the original soul, she would definitely have felt insulted.
Unfortunately, she had already been replaced by an experienced demoness.
Tang Guo’er kept her feelings concealed and maintained an expression of indifference. This Bai QianWei was nothing but a C-list newbie that looked a little similar to Mi.
Everyone knew what her words just now meant.
Bai QianWei’s face also darkened but she held it in. She put on a fake smile. “Since you don’t need my help, then I won’t involve myself in your matters. I’ll just wait for your person here with you. Just in case your person is delayed, I might be able to lend you a hand.” In her head, she was cursing Ni XunMi out a thousand times.
XunMi’s lips curved into a shallow smile. Why was this female lead clinging on so stubbornly?
“Miss Bai, thank you for your good will but that won’t be necessary.” Behind her dark sungla.s.ses, XunMi narrowed her eyes deep in thought.
Tang Guo’er and the two receptionists were silently cursing. This Bai QianWei really made them speechless.
Before Bai QianWei could say more, a pleasantly surprised voice interrupted their conversation. Her face flashed with astonishment, as that voice was too familiar to her. She turned her head to happily greet the newcomer.
“Yan ge.” Bai QianWei quickly stepped forward and bashfully called.
Unfortunately, his gaze never turned to her. Instead, he rushed past her. Bai QianWei froze for a second. What happened? She turned her head to follow his path, yet saw a scene that almost made her explode with jealousy.
“Mi’er, when did you get here? Why didn’t you tell me so I could pick you up? Did you eat? Are you hungry? Jin ge will make food for you.” Ou JinYan ran over and grabbed XunMi’s hand with worry.
XunMi took off her sungla.s.ses and smiled while tilting her head. “Jin ge, did you eat?”
Ou JinYan answered obediently by shaking his head.
“Humph, you don’t care about yourself at all. If I wasn’t here, were you planning on skipping lunch? Look at how late it is already, seriously. Let’s go. I’ll take you to eat something nice.” XunMi was angry but still worried for her dear husband. All those stories about the CEO being able to chase after the female lead and stay by her side 24/7 without worrying about his company were all fake.
Her dear husband spent everyday in the office, as busy as he possibly could be.
Ou JinYan didn’t attempt to retort. “Okay, let’s go eat. Where is Mi’er taking me?”
“To eat seafood. I heard there’s a new restaurant near BinJiang Road with good reviews. Moreover, there’s a lot of healthy vegetable dishes too. Jin ge, you need to take care of your stomach more.” XunMi hooked onto his arm, completely ignoring the people next to them.
Ou Jinyan dotingly took the sungla.s.ses in her hand and helped her put them on. He then took the large hat that Tang Guo’er handed over and used it to cover almost half of her face. After being satisfied with the results, he finally allowed XunMi to pull him outside.
When the two completely disappeared from sight, the people left behind finally recovered. They looked at each other before immediately returning to their own work.
Bai QianWei’s hand that was holding the lunchbox were squeezed tightly, exposing the blue veins underneath. Her face contorted.
She should have known the feeling she had at the television station was right. As expected, Ni XunMi was going to take away the most important thing to her. Yan ge. Yan ge was hers, she won’t let anyone steal him away.
Tang Guo’er quickly took her leave. She needed to first do some PR work. If those two are spotted together, she can respond at the first moment.
The two receptionists were very excited. They already had heart eyes from coming into contact with their G.o.ddess. But because they were at work, they could only hold their emotions in. Then, they were able to see such a handsome and loyal puppy-like side to their boss. Their boss and their G.o.ddess was absolutely too compatible!
Before anyone noticed, Bai QianWei hid back her emotions and left with her lunchbox. When she exited Ou Corporation’s headquarters, she headed straight for a nearby alley. After making sure no one was around, she took out her phone and dialed a number. After giving an order, she ended the call with satisfaction. Hidden in the shadows, her face darkened with malice.
Ni XunMi, you deserve it.
After watching the scene via BaoBao, XunMi realized that she really did like watching the female lead darken. She just didn’t know how exactly the female lead planned to attack her.
XunMi and Ou JinYan reserved a private room at the restaurant. XunMi was feeling very generous today. She ordered a plate of seafood along with a lobster meal package. For her dear husband, she ordered tremella and gingko root soup and chestnut squid. Afterwards, she proudly proclaimed that they could definitely finish it all.
Ou JinYan decided to just let her be. He quietly put on the gloves and began peeling the lobster sh.e.l.ls for her. XunMi rest her chin on the palms of her hands and silently watched her husband work. She couldn’t help but pull out her cellphone for a photo. Click! Save.
No matter how many times she saw something like this, it would feel just like the first time. She would always get a warm bubbly feeling of happiness. It was powerful and indescribable.
Ou JinYan worked skillfully. In his mind, strange images appeared. It was as if he had done this for hundreds of years already. Yet, he couldn’t remember eating lobster with Mi’er before. Although he was confused by the sudden feeling of déjà vu, he didn’t slow down his movements.
But XunMi still noticed her lover’s sudden confusion. “Jin ge?”
“En, Mi’er. Try it. See how it tastes.” He fed XunMi a piece of a lobster he just unpeeled.
XunMi obediently bit down. Her eyes immediately widened. “So good! It tastes too good. JIn ge, you eat some too.” She picked up some to feed to Ou JinYan.
Just like that, the two of them happily spent lunch feeding each other back and forth.
Meanwhile, a trap had been formed for XunMi outside. All they needed was for XunMi to fall in. Right on time, XunMi and Ou Jinyan walked into the rearranged platform.
Before sitting in the car, XunMi saw something hidden obscurely behind a slanted tree. Her lips curled upwards. She had been wondering how the female lead would attack. So Bai QianWei chose such an old method like throwing dirty water? {T/N: to dirty someone’s name}
But did Bai QianWei really think that Ni XunMi’s reputation was so easy to ruin?
Ou JinYan clasped XunMi’s seatbelt on for her and helplessly pinched her cheeks. “Mi’er, don’t do this again okay? It’ll make me worried. Don’t make me worried, okay?”
He had seen the sudden flash on them too.
