Chapter 5

Ye Group's 15th floor clothing design department.

Ye Jinmeng, a corporate slave, was slacking off at her workstation. She just stared at her watch and quietly started the countdown: "59, 58, 57, 56...5, 4, 3, 2, 1."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Jinmeng rushed towards the elevator like a whirlwind.

The other employees in the design department were already used to this scene and could only sigh: "Ah, rich second generations are so good!"

Ye Jinmeng didn't care what others said. In her opinion, eating was a huge deal. "If you're not enthusiastic about meals, there's a problem with your thinking!"

As the first person to rush to the cafeteria entrance, Ye Jinmeng immediately smelled the scent of sweet and sour pork ribs and tomato stewed beef brisket. She sucked in some drool before taking a tray and visiting each food counter from left to right.

Xu Wanwan, who was serving rice at the farthest right counter, noticed Ye Jinmeng as soon as she entered. Xu Wanwan's mind instantly went blank as the resentment that had long been hidden in her heart seemed to erupt like a volcano at any moment.

"Wanwan, what's wrong with you? Why are you dazing off?" The girl next to her serving egg drop soup, also a summer job student, called out to Xu Wanwan.

"Huh? Oh, nothing. I just got a little nervous seeing so many people all of a sudden." Xu Wanwan tried her best to suppress the surging waves of hatred in her heart, but her face was still pale.

Xu Wanwan calmed herself and looked again at Ye Jinmeng sitting at the dining table. She saw Ye Jinmeng shoving mouthfuls of food one after another. Her puffed up little face bulging with each bite, paired with that fluffy meatball head, she actually looked...cute??

"Damn!" Xu Wanwan swore softly, feeling as if she had lost her mind. She immediately shook her head and continued with her task, but kept finding excuses for this discrepancy in her heart.

"Ye Jinmeng at this time in my last life must have been like this too. After all, I hadn't come to Haicheng yet at this time in my previous life, so it's normal that I hadn't seen her before. She's probably going to start dieting in a few days. Yeah, that must be it!"

"Hello, Young Miss Ye."

"Good afternoon, Young Miss Ye."

At this moment, a chorus of greetings sounded in the cafeteria.

Ye Jinchen strode into the cafeteria with a calm and unruffled demeanor. He nodded lightly towards the employees in front of him. "You've all worked hard. Eat more and take a good rest after the meal." His deep yet gentle voice stirred the hearts of some female employees.

But Xu Wanwan's eyes suddenly turned red. In her last life, after Ye Jinchen discovered all the ways Ye Jinmeng had hurt her, he began protecting her everywhere. Until later when he found out about her background, Ye Jinmeng went mad and kidnapped her, and Ye Jinchen died after being hacked by knives when trying to save her.

Thinking of this, Xu Wanwan lowered her head and blinked rapidly to force back the wetness in her eyes. Only when Ye Jinchen took away a bowl of rice and left did she finally relax.Geett the latest novels at novelhall.com
