Finally, ye Changqing finished his call. He turned around and saw Michelle sitting on the sofa. To resolve the awkwardness, he asked,””Uh, miss mi, didn’t you say you were hungry too? Why don’t I order delivery? what do you want to eat?” Ye Changqing still didn’t look into Michelle’s eyes. After asking, he picked up his phone and opened the Meituan take-out app.
Michelle was also quite shy. She flicked her bangs and replied,””Yeah, sure. I … I’m fine with anything. I’ll eat whatever you eat.” After saying that, he rubbed his hands on his knees.
“Okay, then I’ll take a look. Have a seat first, I’ll … I’ll reply to the email first. Someone just called me to rush me.” As he spoke, he pointed at the desk behind him.
“En, okay. I’ll sit here and wait.” Michelle nodded obediently.
Ye Changqing sat on the chair and took a deep breath. He could finally reply to his work emails calmly. From time to time, he would sneak a glance in the direction of Michelle, who was on the sofa. She was also playing with her phone silently.
“Dong Dong Dong!” “Hello, did you order takeaway?” someone knocked on the office door.
“Oh, yes. Please bring it here and put it well.” Ye Changqing replied to the delivery man at the door, then pointed in the direction of the coffee table where Michelle was.
“Alright,” he said. The delivery man agreed and left quickly after placing the food.
Ye Changqing stretched his limbs and walked toward mi Xue ‘er.
In order to break the silence, Michelle spoke first,””You’ve ordered so much, how can the two of us finish it?” As he spoke, he looked up at ye Changqing.
Ye Changqing raised his eyebrows and clapped his hands.””It’s okay. If you can’t finish it, you can take it home and make breakfast tomorrow. I ordered a variety of food.”
Michelle had completely escaped from the awkward atmosphere just now. She asked naughtily,””There’s so much anyway. Even if I pack it up, I won’t be able to finish it by tomorrow morning. Why don’t I stay at your house for the night?”
“No!” Ye Changqing had just sat down and had a bite, but he almost choked.””Absolutely not!” He extended a hand to reject Michelle’s request.
Mi Xue ‘er looked at ye Changqing’s dumbfounded expression, with a chili strip hanging from the corner of his mouth. She laughed and pulled out a tissue from the table and handed it to ye Changqing.”Here, I’m just joking with you. You can wipe it.”
Ye Changqing finally swallowed the food in his mouth. After swallowing it, he said,””Miss mi …”
As soon as he opened his mouth, Michelle interrupted him again,””AI! Didn’t you say you’d call me Xue ‘er? Why did you change your mind?”
“Oh, Xue ‘er.” Ye Changqing put down the lunchbox in his hand.”It’s really late. You should go home early after you’re done eating.” Ye Changqing was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would do something out of line again and cause mi Xue ‘er to misunderstand.
“Okay, I got it. Let’s hurry up and eat.” Actually, that was not what mi Xue ‘er thought. She wanted to stay with ye Changqing for a while after she finished eating. For some reason, she felt at ease when she was with ye Changqing.
After the meal, ye Changqing wiped his mouth and asked,””Alright, do you need me to call a cab for you?”
Mi Xue ‘er was eating dessert after dinner.”Ye Changqing, I’ve just eaten my fill. I haven’t even digested it yet. Are you in such a hurry to chase me away?” Mi Xue ‘er argued with wide eyes.
“No, no, I’m not chasing you away. I’m just afraid that it’s too late. You’re so pretty, and it’s not safe for you to go home. You know, the bar last time …” Ye Changqing thought that Michelle was angry, so he quickly waved his hands and explained. He was afraid that if he made her unhappy, she would not leave again.
Michelle put down the desserts, cleared her throat, and said,””I know. I’ll rest for a while and go back. “But …” She suddenly blinked her big eyes and looked at ye Changqing.
“But what?” ye Changqing continued. He didn’t know what she was calculating in her little head.
Michelle got up from the sofa and walked to his desk.””Still, I want to hear about you and her. Tell me how you two met, and I’ll go home after I hear it.”
Ye Changqing laughed bitterly. He stood up and walked to his desk.”PEI GE and I … We’re just like most people who are not fated to be together. There’s nothing special about us.”
Ye Changqing’s originally happy mood started to ache again at the mention of her name.
Seeing the pained expression on ye Changqing’s face, mi Xue ‘er’s heart ached for him.””Since you don’t want to tell me, then forget it. I’ll go back first.”
“Hey, didn’t you say you wanted to rest for a while? Didn’t you just eat?” Ye Changqing couldn’t guess Michelle’s thoughts and fickleness.
“Alright, since you’re the one who asked me to stay, I’ll sit here for a while. You can do what you need to do. I’ll just look around and take a look around your office.” Mi Xue ‘er saw that ye Changqing was trying to keep her, and she couldn’t help but smile adorably.
Ye Changqing suddenly felt a little regretful, but he was happy on the inside. He seemed to have gotten used to Michelle’s noisy state by his side.”Alright then, do as you please. I’ll get to work.”
Seeing ye Changqing’s silent agreement, mi Xue ‘er was overjoyed, so she strolled back and forth in the office.
Suddenly, she saw a lot of design samples on the display cabinet at the side. She was curious and looked at them carefully. When she walked to the closest jewelry, her eyes lit up. It was the ‘memories’ that she had found online! Looking at it at such a close distance, the color and style were really intoxicating.
She wanted to pick it up and touch it carefully, but she saw ye Changqing not far away, who was busy working and ignoring her, so she picked it up quietly. The feeling of the jewelry falling in her hand was very comfortable. She couldn’t help but whisper,””Waa! It’s really exquisite, no wonder so many women fall in love with it. ”
She looked at ye Changqing and then at the stunner in her hands. She could not help but want to know his and PEI GE’s story. Thus, when she shifted her gaze to the display cabinet again, she saw that the first draft of the design concept was really in the folder at the side! Therefore, he impatiently opened it and read it carefully.
It was only then that he realized that the ‘memory’ was not designed for PEI GE. The concept and the story outline were all the same as the one he had told ye Changqing at the night snack stall.
She remembered every detail clearly. It turned out that ye Changqing had found the inspiration and designed it with the story that she had told!
She bit her lip and gently closed the file. Looking at ye Changqing’s handsome side profile, she muttered,””Hmph, so you’ve been taking my words to heart. Fortunately, this story isn’t true. You actually teased me at the press conference and made me think that you designed this ‘memory’ for that designer, PEI GE! Alright, I’ll make you mine. I’ll make you fall for me, ye Changqing!”
