Chapter 340: A Laugh of Sweet Indulgence
“Ye Erruo?” Gu Feirou blinked in disbelief. Am I imagining things?
Wasn’t this woman just captured by my fiance so that one of her corneas would be removed for me? What is she doing here?
She marched toward her enemy.
Suddenly, Ye Erruo’s phone buzzed for attention. The young assistant by her side took the bag of bread from her hand and passed the phone to her. “Mrs. President, your phone is ringing.”
“Hello. Is that Mo Jiangye?”
“Where did you go?” The man on the other end of the phone sounded a little displeased.
“I was hungry and I went out to buy some bread. I’m near the office. I shall return soon…”
“Are you craving bread?”
“Uh-huh. By the way, there’s a pastry store here that is rather interesting. I’ll bring some buns for you to try later. They are really soft and chewy.” She could not hide the wide smile on her face as she gobbled down another ‘Mo Jiangye’ pastry.
Her assistant swooned because of the sight, though.
“Alright, bring a few more later. The meeting will drag on so I’ll finish late tonight,” he told her gently.
“Okay.”
“Come and look for me in the meeting room once you return.”
“You want me to look for you in the meeting room?” she asked with a start.
“Yes, I want you to bring me the buns personally.” He could not stand the thought of her being far away from him. It made him feel nervous and uneasy. That was why he had called her immediately when he had been notified that she had left the office.
“Alright.”
“There’s another store nearby that sells the dumplings you like. You can search for it and have some food there before you come back to the office.”
The woman looked around her before she replied, “Yup, I can see it. I’ll get a few dumplings for you too.”
He chuckled. His voice was full of sweet indulgence when he said to her, “Alright. I’ll eat whatever Baby Ruo gets for me.”
“You should continue your meeting now. I’ll hang up.”
“Sure. See you in a bit, baby.”
Ye Erruo could feel goosebumps forming on the back of her neck. “Okay, see you in a bit.”
After putting down the phone, to everyone’s astonishment, the man resumed his detached persona again and continued the meeting.
“Miss, your buns are ready.”
The buns with her chibi artwork were finally ready.
“Let me have my bag.” The lady reached for her purse, ready to make the payment, but her assistant was too dumbfounded by the sight of her beauty to notice her instruction.
“What happened to you?” She waved her hand in front of her young assistant, hoping to catch her attention.
Startled, the assistant blushed beet red as she tried to regain her composure. “Ah? Oh, what? What do you need? Oh, how much is it?” What’s wrong with me? Why am I so captivated by another woman?
“The total is 8,619 yuan, but you can round down to 8,600 yuan.”
“Alright.”
“Ye Erruo, is that you?” a shrill voice said behind her.
The lady subconsciously turned to check behind her and found herself staring in the eyes of her arch enemy.
As she turned her head around, the sight of her with her hair fluttering lightly in the breeze caught the male pets standing across from her by surprise.
Who is this beauty?
Her skin was dewy and soft, and her eyes sparkled with delight. Her lips looked so tantalizing that it was almost criminal to look at them. The ten men across from her felt time stop the moment she swung around to look at them. It was as if she had walked out of a painting.
The ten male pets held their breath as their eyes stayed on the woman. The word ‘goddess’ would not be good enough to describe the distinctive aura that this beauty possessed. In their opinion, she was probably the most beautiful woman on earth.
“Gu Feirou?” Ye Erruo cocked her brow in surprise. Why is she wearing a mask in public? Oh, right… She is blind in one eye.
On the other hand, her enemy was still staring at her in disbelief. It’s her. It’s really her! What about her eye? Why is she…
“How come your eye can still see? Why aren’t you blind?”
The lady chuckled in bemusement. “I think you are the one who’s blind, not me. Yes, that’s right. You are indeed blind.”
“Arrest her!” Gu Feirou yelled at her men.
