Chapter 124: Chapter 124: The Lady Boss Must Have It Too
All employees at Fu Family Corporation started their morning tea with milk tea and desserts distributed by the Logistics Department, while Ye Li had just finished a major class.
After watching the professor leave the classroom, Ye Li looked up once again to find Xiang Yang waiting in the hallway.
Thinking something had happened to Fu Yanci, Ye Li dropped the pen in her hand and ran out.
Xiang Yang handed her a takeout bag, his face brimming with a smile, "Boss is treating all the company employees to morning tea. The Boss said that what the employees have, the lady boss must also have. He asked me to deliver a portion to the Lady."
"Thank you, Special Assistant Xiang, it must have been a bother for you to make the trip!"
Ye Li thanked him and walked back to her seat with the takeout bag.
Beside her, Su Qingkong laughed and said, "Is that from your boyfriend?"
"Yeah."
Ye Li nodded, opened the bag, and couldn’t help but smile with her eyes curving in amusement.
It was unclear whether Fu Yanci had intentionally done so, or if Xiang Yang was considerate, but the milk tea and Black Forest cake were both in double portions.
After sharing a portion with Su Qingkong, Ye Li casually took a photo and sent it to Fu Yanci, [Thank you for the morning tea, boyfriend!]
The fragrant and rich milk tea was a bit hot on her lips.
In this cold winter day, it brought an added sense of happiness.
Ye Li and Su Qingkong chatted about design while eating and drinking, with occasional agreement from others around, creating a visibly warm atmosphere in the classroom.
In another corner, Jiang Chengcheng’s face looked somewhat displeased.
She had thought that after such a big scandal in the forum, Ye Li would not escape being utterly chilled, at least getting splattered with mud was unavoidable.
Unexpectedly, she managed to come out completely unscathed.
Not only that, but she even gained the flattering title of "little fairy," which made everyone highly praise her.
Even the wishing posts in "Lover’s Meeting" were not as popular as Ye Li’s post.
Her phone buzzed, and Jiang Chengcheng withdrew her jealous gaze, only to see "Mr. Zhou" on the screen.
Her heart involuntarily skipped a beat.
That night at Vicent, Zhou Hecchen kept calling her "baby," telling her to be good.
Perhaps it was a case of being drunk in love without the wine.
Or maybe the boisterous drum beats outside shattered all of her reservations.
The moment the pain arrived, before she could even whimper, she heard Zhou Hecchen’s abruptly uttered "Xiao Li" right beside her ear.
She stiffened, her heart freezing along with her body.
Jiang Chengcheng didn’t even know how she left Vicent, or how she returned to her dormitory.
The next morning, Zhou Hecchen had someone run an errand to bring her medicine and messaged her to remember to take it.
After that, the two of them had no further contact for several days.
Jiang Chengcheng couldn’t even bring herself to ask "What am I to you?"
Fearing that the answer would be even more embarrassing.
And now, after delivering the medicine, this was the first time Zhou Hecchen had initiated contact with her.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Ye Li, who was drinking milk tea and chatting warmly with her classmates.
In her ears was the sound of Zhou Hecchen’s suppressed but excited "Xiao Li."
Suppressing the sourness in her heart, Jiang Chengcheng unlocked her phone, and in the next instant, her lips curved into a smile.
Zhou Hecchen had sent her a photo, [Which color do you like?]
In the photo was a new Clutch Bag for winter from brand L.
Black was elegant.
White was refreshing.
Gold-brown was captivating.
After hesitating for a few minutes, Jiang Chengcheng chose white.
After a while, Zhou Hecchen replied, [Come over and pick it up tonight. Yunjing Hotel, room 9999.]
Her heart racing, Jiang Chengcheng didn’t hear the class bell or what the professor lectured about on stage.
All she could think about was what to wear that night and what time she should go.
If she went too early, she was afraid Zhou Hecchen would think she was anxious.
If she went too late, she feared he would lose patience waiting too long.
All day her mind ran through all the clothes in her wardrobe, trying them on in her imagination, but nothing seemed sophisticated enough.
When she saw Ye Li heading towards Fanxing Apartment in the evening sun, Jiang Chengcheng felt some regret.
If she hadn’t offended Ye Li, she could wear any dress from Ye Li’s wardrobe that she wanted.
But there were no "ifs."
Her eyes skimming over the white down jacket Ye Li was wearing, Jiang Chengcheng got an idea and hurried back to her dormitory.
Not daring to eat too much for dinner, Jiang Chengcheng took a shower and dressed in a white short sweater and jeans, then put on a white down jacket.
Grabbing her makeup bag, Jiang Chengcheng stared at the mirror for quite some time before carefully doing her makeup.
At nine o’clock sharp, Jiang Chengcheng rang the doorbell of the VIP9999 suite.
After a single ring, the door opened.
Jiang Chengcheng’s blooming smile froze upon seeing the woman inside the door.
