Di Mingjue unbuckled his seatbelt and quickly got out of the car.
Ye Chenhan was pushed aside by the car door. He stared blankly at Di Mingjue, who abandoned the car and left.
“You’re not taking the car?”
His question was swallowed by the surrounding noise.
“Love truly makes people great!” Ye Chenhan got into the car and drove away Di Mingjue’s car.
It was exactly the end of the workday, and employees were walking out in groups of three to five. Following the crowd, Di Mingjue easily entered the Ye Corporation building.
He had been here once before, so he went to Ye Ziyu’s office door with practiced ease.
As time passed, the lights in the office building were gradually extinguished. On the CEO’s floor, only Ye Ziyu’s office still emitted a strong light.
Knock, knock!
Ye Ziyu heard the knocking and looked up at the door.
Security guard?
“Come in!”
The door was pushed open, and Ye Ziyu watched Di Mingjue enter with a thermal bag. She immediately lowered her face in silence.
She had shot herself in the foot. She had no choice but to endure his presence even if she ignored him. Di Mingjue walked in shamelessly.
“Chenhan told me you were working overtime tonight, so I specially bought some of your favorite food nearby.”
As soon as the items were placed on the table, Ye Ziyu pushed them outwards. If Di Mingjue hadn’t quickly caught them, the food would have spilled all over the floor.
Fearing she would push again, Di Mingjue turned and placed the food on the coffee table behind him, then naturally walked to Ye Ziyu’s side. He looked down at the documents in front of her. “Do you have to handle all of these?”
Ye Ziyu remained silent, offering no response. She mechanically reviewed the documents in front of her, occasionally picking up a pen to sign her name at the bottom.
Seeing himself being ignored, Di Mingjue pulled out his trump card.
“Take a break, I’ll help you.”
He was like a bandit, grabbing the files and running towards the sofa. By the time Ye Ziyu reacted, it was already too late to stop him.
He placed the files on the coffee table, then eagerly brought the food he bought to Ye Ziyu. “Eat while it’s hot. Your stomach won’t feel good if it gets cold.”
He personally opened the packaging, neatly arranged the chopsticks, and was ready to feed her directly.
Watching him busy himself, Ye Ziyu coldly replied without any emotion, “You don’t need to demean yourself and do these things!”
There was no need for one of them to be inferior to the other.
Di Mingjue’s face fell in dejection. He proactively apologized, “Forgive me! I shouldn’t have left you in a huff earlier today.”
His impulsive action not only failed to drive away Gu Xiuyu, but it also caused a rift between him and Ye Ziyu.
“Hit me. You can vent your grievances then.”
He grabbed Ye Ziyu’s hand and brought it towards his face.
As the saying goes, don’t hit someone in the face. Ye Ziyu controlled her arm, stopping Di Mingjue’s action.
With his palm only a few millimeters from her cheek, Di Mingjue smiled and leaned his face into it. “I knew you cared about me.”
If he hadn’t said that, the slap would have landed long ago.
Ye Ziyu let out a cold snort and abruptly pulled her hand out of his. “Didn’t some people leave in a fit of anger, and now they’re coming back with all this solicitousness? What’s the meaning of this?”
Her words hit the mark, and Di Mingjue awkwardly rubbed his hair. “I was wrong, I was wrong. I was just impulsive. I regretted it as soon as I crossed the road. When I looked back, you and Gu Xiuyu had already left, and I couldn’t bring myself to turn back.”
Face?
Ye Ziyu was not satisfied with his explanation. If he truly believed her, he wouldn’t have left.
The eased atmosphere turned cold again, and Di Mingjue realized he had said the wrong thing.
What’s done is done, a perfect description of the current situation.
“I won’t mind you interacting with Gu Xiuyu anymore!” Di Mingjue said through gritted teeth, suppressing his jealousy.
This was the only issue between them. If he could just let it go, there would be no more arguments.
