Chapter 1434: Chapter 1434: Like a Little Old Lady

She reached out to pick it up and began to read attentively.

Just like in her student days, Qin Youxuan tried hard to remember the notes made by Jin Chenye, looking for differences in each collaborative case.

Time always flies when you’re engrossed in work.

In the blink of an eye, the secretary came to remind her that it was lunchtime.

"Qin Youxuan, I was worried it would be crowded at noon, so I booked a table for you at the Western restaurant opposite. I heard the food is good there, I hope you’ll like it," the secretary said considerately.

"Thank you, it must have been trouble."

Qin Youxuan lifted her head from the documents, and after a slight pause, she thanked her politely.

She glances at the time; it’s already twelve, indeed time for lunch.

Remembering she had made plans with Jin Chenye, Qin Youxuan did not dare to delay any further, closed the contract at hand, and stood up from her desk.

When she walked into Jin Chenye’s office, he was still seated at his desk, focusing intently on his work.

His handsome face slightly lowered, the soft light hitting his profile, further accentuating his gentle temperament.

Sensing someone’s presence, he looked up vigilantly.

The moment he saw it was Qin Youxuan, his eyes softened, "You’re here, give me a few more minutes, I’ll be done soon."

Qin Youxuan’s cat-like eyes twinkled. She walked over, reached out to close the file in front of him, and pursed her lips.

"I say workaholic, is your work so urgent that you can’t even wait half an hour? I heard from the secretary that you’re now even skipping lunchtime to have boxed lunches ordered. If I don’t come and look after you, I’m worried others will say I’m mistreating my employees."

Qin Youxuan pointed at her fingers, "You’re the reinforcement I brought in. What would I do if you collapsed from exhaustion?"

"I have been eating regularly, just asked the secretary to order because it’s less hassle; they’re exaggerating."

As Jin Chenye had his document taken away, he simply closed his pen and looked up at her.

His clear, gentle eyes, as elegantly warm as ever.

The faint smile at the corner of his mouth felt distant to others, but to Qin Youxuan, it was full of understanding and warmth.

"Let’s go then, if I don’t accompany you for lunch today, it would truly be a thankless task," Jin Chenye said with a smile as he stood up from his seat.

He reached for his coat and wallet, crossed his desk, and headed out.

"The human body needs food just as much as iron needs steel; skip a meal, and you’ll feel real weak. Don’t think that just because you’re young, you can neglect your health. Even if you want to work hard, you have to consider what your body can take. If one day sickness strikes you down like a landslide, you’ll realize that no amount of wealth can buy health..."

Qin Youxuan followed behind him, nagging incessantly like an old granny.

Lecturing the man who didn’t take his health seriously, she even forgot to watch her step.

Jin Chenye suddenly stopped, and she couldn’t brake in time, bumping straight into him.

"Are you alright?"

Jin Chenye turned around, reached out to support her shoulders, and looked down at her.

Qin Youxuan rubbed her nose and frowned at him, "If you don’t want to listen to me, just say so, why stop all of a sudden?"

It made her hit her nose, feeling like her nasal bridge was about to break.

What’s his back made of, being so hard.

"The elevator hasn’t arrived."

Jin Chenye pointed at the numbers that were still jumping upwards and looked at her with arms crossed.

Qin Youxuan instantly felt awkward.

She kept silent, pretending to be dead.

Until they entered the restaurant, Qin Youxuan was still caught up in the embarrassing moment, too ashamed to continue nagging him.

"Two main courses, steak."

After Jin Chenye finished ordering, he turned to Qin Youxuan, "Did you not rest well last night? You look a bit haggard."
