Chapter 428: Chapter 428 Encounter with Dongfang Ming
"Let’s go."
Chu Yelin stood beside Lin Qian’s workstation, looking down at her from above.
Lin Qian raised her eyes and met his narrow gaze, her delicate eyebrows slightly knitted.
He came again to ask her to leave work with him, and the people around who were leaving kept looking at them. It was truly speechless.
"Chu Yelin, can’t I have my own personal space? Can you stop looking at me like I’m a thief? Can’t you go do your own personal business?"
For example, go pick up Xu Xinyi from work, or ask her out or something!
Hearing Lin Qian’s discontented voice, Chu Yelin curled his lips, "Qianqian, you really know me well! Let’s go, accompany me to do something personal."
Accompany him to do something personal?
Lin Qian’s almond eyes sparkled, her face full of curiosity, "Chu Yelin, what are you going to do?"
Is he going to find Xu Xinyi?
"Accompany me to buy something."
"Buy something? For whom?"
Since Xu Xinyi got injured, could he be buying something for her?
"For an elder."
Lin Qian: "..."
For an elder?
Not for Xu Xinyi?
A heart that was leaping with joy suddenly felt like it was doused with a bucket of ice water!
Lin Qian moved her lips, wanting to mention Xu Xinyi, but when she thought of Chu Yelin’s expression just now, she swallowed the words.
Chu Yelin was too clever.
If she kept mentioning Xu Xinyi, it would make him think she had ulterior motives.
Instead, it would be counterproductive.
She decided to be patient, taking one step at a time seemed best.
Feeling stuffy inside, Lin Qian casually asked, "Oh, which elder are you giving it to?"
"MXL Chairman, Mi Qihua."
Lin Qian: "..."
Buying a gift for the big boss!
Lin Qian’s eyes flashed with a trace of surprise as she looked over at Chu Yelin, meeting his dark eyes.
He looked at her deeply, as if with some hidden meaning.
Lin Qian blinked and didn’t think much of it, following him into the car, speeding away.
The car moved forward all the way, neither of them speaking, and soon they arrived at a quiet alley.
Lin Qian was somewhat familiar with F Country and knew there were shops here specializing in expensive antiques.
She thought Chu Yelin probably came to pick out antiques for Mi Qihua.
Lin Qian felt a bit tasteless about it since she wasn’t interested in these antiques at all.
Moreover, the thing she was most concerned about right now was not this.
She was more concerned about when Chu Yelin would finally focus on Xu Xinyi.
"Qianqian, how about this one?"
Chu Yelin held out a vase, signaling Lin Qian to look.
Lin Qian didn’t understand antiques but thought the vase looked nice, "It’s pretty."
Chu Yelin played with the vase a bit, not making a purchase immediately but continuing to look around.
"How about this one?"
"Also nice."
"That one?"
"It’s okay."
"..."
The two of them in a question and answer mode made Chu Yelin chuckle lightly.
He picked up an ashtray, glanced at Lin Qian and said, "Qianqian, your appreciation level is really unspeakable."
At these words, Lin Qian casually picked up a piece of jade pendant that seemed to be of good quality, and said indifferently, "I’m not an expert, of course I judge by feeling. Among so many antiques, I actually think this pendant looks the best."
The entire jade was pure and translucent, without a single impurity.
The shape was like a phoenix spreading its wings, very pleasing to the eye.
Hearing this, Chu Yelin took the pendant from her hand, a trace of amusement in his eyes.
Just as he was about to speak, a male voice came from behind.
"Miss Lin may not be an expert, but her appreciation level is quite good."
The rich male voice carried a mature air.
Lin Qian turned around and saw a tall, long-legged man walking over with a smile.
Is this... Dongfang Ming?
"Uncle Ming!"
Seeing it was Dongfang Ming, Chu Yelin’s dark eyes moved, greeting him first.
Dongfang Ming responded with a hum, his gaze sweeping past Chu Yelin and fixating on Lin Qian’s face.
"Miss Lin, we meet again."
"Mr. Dongfang."
Lin Qian politely greeted Dongfang Ming.
Dongfang Ming nodded, his burning gaze not moving away from Lin Qian’s face, looking at her delicate features, momentarily nostalgic.
So alike, truly alike!
If Man’s daughter had grown up by now, she should be about Lin Qian’s age.
"Ahem, Uncle Ming, are you also here to pick a gift for President Mi?"
Seeing Dongfang Ming gazing fixedly at Lin Qian, Chu Yelin lightly cleared his throat and asked.
Dongfang Ming came back to his senses, noticing Lin Qian’s discomfort, he quickly shifted his gaze away.
"Yes, I’m here to pick a gift for that Old Turtle. He’s not very hospitable. Despite my invitation, he refused to come to my banquet. Not like him, I’ll personally go tomorrow to celebrate him getting another year older."
Upon hearing this, Chu Yelin curled his lips without commenting.
He put down the jade pendant in his hand, choosing the ashtray he just saw, preparing to chat respectfully and leisurely with Dongfang Ming.
Lin Qian pouted her little tongue, watching Dongfang Ming’s tall figure, her almond eyes sparkling.
At the last banquet, Dongfang Ming had given her a somewhat strange look.
It was as though he was looking through her at someone else.
Who was he looking at?
Who did she resemble?
Flashes of something ran through her mind, Lin Qian bit her lips, her heart skipped a beat.
If we’re talking about resembling someone, she should resemble the appearance of her biological mother.
Otherwise, Yin Moran’s mother wouldn’t have fallen ill the first time she saw her.
So, does this mean Dongfang Ming knew her mother?
Could she ask him about matters related to her mother?
"Alright, I’ll take this one, please wrap it for me."
Dongfang Ming selected an antique and indicated to the attendant for it to be wrapped.
Chu Yelin also handed the selected antique to the attendant.
"Please wrap this one as well for me."
Dongfang Ming handed over the pendant that Lin Qian found beautiful to the attendant.
The attendant wore a polite smile, respectfully taking the black cards handed by the two of them to check out.
"Lin, you left too hastily at the last banquet. I didn’t even get to ask you, is Miss Lin your girlfriend?"
Dongfang Ming turned his head, looking at Lin Qian who obediently stayed aside, questioning Chu Yelin.
Chu Yelin moved his lips, not having had the chance to speak before Lin Qian quickly said, "No, President Chu is my superior."
Girlfriend?
She didn’t want others misunderstanding her relationship with Chu Yelin at all.
If she had to describe their relationship, it would be that of adversaries!
"Oh? Is that so?"
Dongfang Ming gave a meaningful glance at Chu Yelin, smiling and patting his shoulder, "Seems like you haven’t caught her yet!"
Chu Yelin suppressed the displeasure on his face, curling his lips into a smile.
Dongfang Ming glanced at Lin Qian, continuing, "Since we’ve met, why not have a meal together?"
He wanted to learn more about this girl.
To see if she was indeed Man’s daughter!
"Alright."
Chu Yelin’s dark eyes shifted, expressing no objections.
His gaze swept towards Lin Qian, "Qianqian, you don’t mind having a meal with Uncle Ming, right?"
"Not at all."
Lin Qian shook her head, giving a small smile towards Dongfang Ming.
Serene and calm, such demeanor even more resembled that person.
Dongfang Ming was somewhat dazed, watching Lin Qian lower her eyes slightly, keeping pace with Chu Yelin’s steps, striding to catch up.
