After Li Guang was apprehended by the police, Fang Yuan raised an inquisitive eyebrow and exchanged a brief glance with Zhao Quan. Without a word, she turned on her heel and headed towards the elevator. Upon returning to her office, a wave of concerned employees approached her, seeking permission to take time off for a medical check-up.
“Considering our company’s oversight in this matter, inform headquarters to grant them an additional month’s salary and encourage them to purchase nutritional supplements for their well-being,” Fang Yuan instructed.
“Of course,” Wang Ning promptly responded.
At that very moment, Old Sir Bo sent her a message on WeChat: [My dear granddaughter-in-law, are you at work? Feeling tired or hungry? I’ll arrange for some food to be sent your way.] He even added an endearing little pig emoji at the end.
[No need, Grandpa.] Fang Yuan replied as she continued walking. [I’m not hungry.]
[Even if you’re not hungry, you must eat something. You’re too thin. I’ll have Grandpa Wen deliver it to you later. I’m sure you’ll like it.] The chef had mentioned that modern young ladies liked delicate and beautiful snacks. His granddaughter-in-law was undoubtedly cute, so she must share the same preference, right?
[There’s really no need. Just give it to Bo Yi.] Fang Yuan responded.
[He’s not eating. No share for him!] Old Sir Bo decisively retorted.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Cheng Yuqi waited patiently in the meeting room for a full two hours. The afternoon tea had grown cold, and she was eager to discover what had kept Bo Yi occupied for so long. Yet, she hesitated, not wanting to disrupt his work suddenly. Just as she debated with herself, the door to Bo Yi’s office finally swung open. She turned her attention and saw Bo Yi emerging.
“Yi, are you finished?” Cheng Yuqi quickly approached, her tone concerned. “You’ve been busy for quite a while. Don’t overexert yourself. Are you hungry? Would you like to have something to eat?”
“Master Bo is preoccupied…” Mu Qing interjected, blocking Cheng Yuqi’s path. “Lady Yuqi, please wait.”
“Yi…” Cheng Yuqi called after him as he walked away. “Where are you going? Will you be back later? I’ve prepared some afternoon tea for you… Would you like to have a bite before you go?”
Bo Yi paid no attention to her, and as the elevator doors closed, all that remained was Cheng Yuqi’s retreating figure.
Observing Master Bo’s departure, Mu Qing cast a brief glance at Cheng Yuqi before stepping into the elevator to leave. At that moment, his phone vibrated.
“Is everything prepared? Alright, 1’11 be there in approximately ten minutes. Let me confirm once more. Is the juice freshly squeezed? No ice, right? Mm, understood. Keep the snacks warm; my Miss prefers her food that way. Mm, 1 got it.”
As the elevator doors remained open, Cheng Yuqi overheard Mu Qing’s conversation, leaving her perplexed. There was no mention of a young lady in the Bo family… could it be Fang Yuan? Instantly, Cheng Yuqi was taken aback. She swiftly descended from a different elevator and hurried back to her car.
“Butler Zhao, follow Yi’s car!”
“Lady Yuqi, what’s going on…” Butler Zhao was somewhat puzzled, but seeing Cheng Yuqi’s anxious expression, he started the engine without further questions.
“Master Bo, the Cheng family’s car is tailing us. Should we attempt to lose them?” Mu Qing promptly noticed the conspicuous license plate trailing behind them—it belonged to the Cheng family.
Bo Yi, however, dismissed it with indifference, saying lazily, “Let her follow.”
On the other end, Fang Yuan received a call from Bo Yi.
“I’ll be at your location in ten minutes, bringing you some afternoon tea,” Bo Yi’s voice maintained its characteristic allure. “Which floor is your office on?”
Fang Yuan responded, “You’re already on your way?”
“Mhm,” Bo Yi confirmed.
“In that case, I’ll go downstairs to pick it up,” Fang Yuan replied, reluctant to let Bo Yi deliver it
to her office to avoid drawing unnecessary attention.
“Are you concerned about being seen?” Bo Yi sounded slightly displeased. Was his presence suspicious? Was he not attractive enough? Did his status not warrant acknowledgment as her fiance?
Fang Yuan sighed in exasperation. “Don’t you understand your own identity?” She explained that Bo Yi’s appearance would cause a stir not only in her company but also on any street in Jing City. His presence would invite endless questions about their relationship, making her life far from peaceful.
Cheng Yuqi trailed Bo Yi until his car came to a stop near a company. This company was a part of the Cheng family’s business empire and was under Fang Yuan’s management. Cheng Yuqi’s suspicions were confirmed; Bo Yi had come here to meet that “village girl.” He had left her, a socialite, waiting in the conference room for two hours, but he chose to visit this seemingly ordinary girl. What was so special about her? Perhaps he had encountered countless wealthy ladies like her in his world and occasionally sought a unique flavor?
Bo Yi stepped out of the car, dressed in a white shirt, exuding remarkable charm. The surroundings seemed to dim a little as he appeared. This was his usual effect; wherever he went, he effortlessly became the center of attention. His gaze carried an air of aloofness and nobility, but it softened as soon as a certain figure appeared, resembling the gentle warmth of winter sunlight.
“Yuanyuan…”
“Have you been waiting long?” As soon as Fang Yuan walked over to him, he assertively and gently embraced her..
