Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her-Chapter 771
Ye Yuning couldn’t cook to save her life.
She thought that those who could cook were extremely impressive.
Hearing that Ji Nan could cook, she truly admired him from the bottom of her heart. "Your woman will be so lucky in the future," she said.
"If you become Mrs. Qin, you’ll be fortunate too," Ji Nan replied.
Ye Yuning was speechless.
She really felt like he was trying to show off all his capabilities for his boss.
Sensing that Ji Nan was going all out for Qin Jinchuan, Lai Shuo also seemed to realize his own shortcomings.
He showed no intention of leaving, which made Luo Xin anxious.
As a result, her expression darkened.
"Is watching our boss eat that interesting?" Luo Xin didn’t hold back her annoyance.
Lai Shuo frowned.
Only then did Ye Yuning and Ji Nan notice Lai Shuo still hadn’t left.
Ye Yuning’s expression soured.
Glancing at the takeout bag in Lai Shuo’s hand, she could tell which prominent restaurant it was from.
"Did Xiao Linye send you?" Ye Yuning raised an eyebrow.
Her tone was neutral, devoid of warmth.
Lai Shuo shook his head. "No, I came on my own."
Ye Yuning said, "Didn’t I tell you last night not to come anymore?"
He just drove her to and from work, yet every time something happened, he acted as if it had nothing to do with him. She really didn’t need a driver like that.
Lai Shuo walked past Luo Xin, entered the office, and went straight to Ye Yuning’s desk.
The look he gave Ji Nan was clearly hostile.
Ji Nan, however, maintained his gentle expression, seemingly unaffected by Lai Shuo’s attitude.
Lai Shuo looked at Ye Yuning and lowered his head. "I came to apologize."
He had planned to say this only after Ji Nan and Luo Xin left.
As a man, he felt somewhat embarrassed about this.
What happened last night... his standing by idly was definitely wrong.
But he just couldn’t bring himself to lose face!
As soon as he said that, the atmosphere in the office grew tense.
Ji Nan instinctively glanced at Ye Yuning, who looked back at him. Luo Xin was utterly baffled.
When Ye Yuning arrived this morning, Luo Xin had noticed she was injured but hadn’t dared to ask how.
Now, hearing Lai Shuo apologize, could her injury be related to him?
If so, Lai Shuo was truly detestable.
Their boss’s hands were crucial!
For a designer, nothing was more vital than their hands.
Earlier that morning, when Ye Yuning was sketching with the designers in the conference room, she had been noticeably less agile than usual.
Luo Xin glared unhappily at Lai Shuo’s back.
Ye Yuning glanced at Ji Nan and said, "Ji Nan, today’s lunch was excellent. Thank you."
"I’ll wait outside," Ji Nan replied.
Understanding Ye Yuning’s meaning, Ji Nan nodded and left the office.
Seeing that Ye Yuning wanted to speak with Lai Shuo privately, Luo Xin also quickly left. She didn’t need to think hard to know that, given her boss’s temper, Ye Yuning would undoubtedly berate Lai Shuo harshly.
Why did he have to injure her boss’s hand of all things?
***
Only Ye Yuning and Lai Shuo remained in the office. Lai Shuo visibly sighed in relief.
Clearly, he had been terrified Ye Yuning would humiliate him in front of Ji Nan and Luo Xin.
Observing his demeanor, Ye Yuning snorted. "It’s rare for you to apologize."
"But how many times have you apologized to me now?"
He had apologized before, back when she was cooperating with the Xiao Corporation and he had infuriated her.
At that time, she and Xiao Linye were married, both unaware of each other’s true identities.
They were constantly at each other’s throats!
And Lai Shuo was naturally the one who suffered.
Looking back on that period, Ye Yuning still felt it was like a dream.
Being a married couple who didn’t recognize each other in broad daylight—that was probably unique to her and Xiao Linye.
Lai Shuo didn’t directly answer Ye Yuning’s question. He simply said, "Sorry. Last night was my fault."
This time, Lai Shuo’s apology was filled with sincerity.
That hadn’t happened before.
During their previous cooperation, Lai Shuo had apologized, yes, but never with such earnestness.
Now...
A wry smile touched Ye Yuning’s lips. "Lai Shuo, I suddenly find you quite pitiful."
If one were to truly pinpoint who was to blame for last night, it would be Xiao Linye.
Yet Lai Shuo ended up taking all the blame!
Hearing Ye Yuning’s words, Lai Shuo’s expression darkened.
Ye Yuning asked, "Do you know why Kang Xuan came here?"
"Why?"
It would have been better if Kang Xuan hadn’t been mentioned.
But as soon as Kang Xuan’s name was mentioned, Lai Shuo immediately labeled him a ’traitor’ in his heart.
