Chapter 60 - Come Quickly, I’m scared

n

n

n

nLin Yi hid in the corner, not saying a word.

n

nThen, he heard the sound of the door closing, as well as the sound of the door being locked.

n

nLin Yi crept out from the corner and walked toward the switch again. He did it a few more times, making loud deliberate footsteps in the process.

n

nBuzz Buzz…

n

nSoon, Lin Yi’s phone rang. It was a voice message from Ji Qingyan.

n

n“Lin Yi, where are you? I’m at the company. Can you come pick me up?”

n

nLin Yi frowned. Was this little girl not scared silly? She still had the mood to send a WeChat message at this time?

n

nDid she lose her call function?

n

nBefore Lin Yi could reply, Ji Qingyan’s call came.

n

nHowever, Lin Yi did not pick up. He did not want to give himself away.

n

n“I don’t have time. I’m working outside.”

n

nLin Yi replied on WeChat.

n

n“Can you stop working? I think there’s a bad guy in the company. I’m scared.”

n

nThere was a sobbing tone in Ji Qingyan’s voice. She wasn’t just nervous anymore.

n

nThinking of this, Lin Yi decided not to tease her anymore since she had already realized the seriousness of the problem.

n

nCarrying his egg fried rice, Lin Yi walked towards Ji Qingyan’s office.

n

nDang dang dang..

n

n“Who are you?!”

n

nJi Qingyan yelled.

n

n“Let me tell you, my boyfriend will be here soon. Don’t think that I’m afraid of you! Get out of my office!”

n

nLin Yi could not help but laugh.

n

nHe always looked like a grown woman, but he did not think that there was such a side to her.

n

n“Since your boyfriend is coming, I’ll leave first.”

n

nHuh?

n

nThe voice outside the door sounded familiar to her, and she immediately realized that it was Lin Yi’s voice!

n

nShe hurriedly opened the door and saw that the person outside was Lin Yi.

n

nJi Qingyan threw herself into Lin Yi’s arms.

n

n“Sob, sob, sob… you’re finally here. I think some bad people came to the company just now. You scared me to death.”

n

nHowever, Ji Qingyan soon realized that something was wrong.

n

nShe let go of Lin Yi and looked at him suspiciously.

n

n“I only just sent you a WeChat message, so why are you already here?”

n

n“Because I’ve been outside the whole time.”

n

nJi Qingyan’s expression turned from grief to anger.

n

n“It was you standing outside! Why were you scaring me?!”

n

nLin Yi held up his phone.

n

n“Look at yourself. It’s past nine o’clock at night and there’s no one at the company. What if it was not me but someone else? What would you do then?”

n

nAfter being lectured by Lin Yi, Ji Qingyan realized that Lin Yi was doing it for her own good.

n

n“What kind of prank is that? It might have been someone else staying back.”

n

n“Who else has the right to work on the top floor other than the company’s president?”

n

n“You should call me then, but you can’t scare me. I was scared to death just now.”

n

nJi Qingyan wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes.

n

nShe was a little angry at first, but after knowing that Lin Yi was doing it for her own good, she was not angry anymore.

n

n“A workaholic like you won’t listen to others if I didn’t do something serious,” Lin Yi said.

n

n“That’s why I need to teach you guys a lesson.”

n

n“I just want to finish all these documents. I don’t want to push them to tomorrow,” Ji Qingyan said guiltily.

n

n“Oh right, what are you holding in your hand?”

n

n“Egg fried rice.”

n

nWhen she saw Lin Yi buy supper…

n

nJi Qingyan’s heart was filled with joy.

n

nIt was quite romantic. He even knew that she did not eat upon working overtime.

n

nAs they sat on the sofa in the office, Lin Yi opened the fragrant packet of egg fried rice and felt his stomach growl.

n

nHe took a big bite and put it into his mouth.

n

nHe was exceptionally satisfied.

n

n“Huh Huh?”

n

nJi Qingyan froze at the desk.

n

nDid he not buy it for her?

n

nDid he not know that she hadn’t eaten yet?

n

nHe actually ate it himself?

n

n“Cough cough cough…”

n

nJi Qingyan coughed lightly.

n

n“Is your throat not feeling well? Drink more hot water.”

n

n“It’s already past nine. I’ve been busy until now.”

n

n“I know.”

n

n“But I haven’t eaten yet,” Ji Qingyan said.

n

n“Don’t you have the little biscuit? I only bought one serving. Don’t try to steal my fried rice.”

n

n“A little biscuit can’t fill you up.”

n

nJi Qingyan walked over. “Give me a bite.”

n

n“You’re the CEO. How can you just eat egg fried rice?”

n

n“I’m not a fairy. Why can’t I eat egg fried rice?”

n

nJi Qingyan then added, “There’s a small alley next to the company. There’s a couple inside who sells really delicious egg fried rice. I’ve bought it several times.”

n

nLin Yi was a little surprised. He didn’t expect Ji Qingyan to go there to buy egg fried rice.

n

n“This is Aunt Liu’s egg fried rice.”

n

n“Really?”Ji Qingyan’s expression brightened. “Let me try it.”

n

nLin Yi handed the chopsticks over when he saw how cute she looked.

n

nHowever, she did not move.

n

n“Why aren’t you eating?”

n

n“Feed me.”

n

n“I don’t want to.”

n

n“No, you scared me just now, so you have to feed me.”

n

n“You’re already an adult, but you’re still acting like a spoiled child. I can’t do anything to you.”

n

nLin Yi had no choice. He picked up the chopsticks, took a small bite, and fed it to Qingyan.

n

n“Their egg fried rice is still the best,”Ji Qingyan mumbled.

n

n“Give me a piece of ham.

n

n“I want another piece of egg.”

n

n“Why are you asking people to feed you?” Lin Yi complained, but he still picked up a piece of ham and egg before feeding it to Ji Qingyan.

n

n“Alright, I’m full. Go ahead.”

n

n“You’re full after just two bites?”

n

n“You’ve been out for a whole day. You’re hungry too. I’m going to eat some biscuits.”

n

n“Go ahead. My appetite is not as big as you think.”

n

n“I’m not going to eat anymore.” Ji Qingyan shook her head. “It’s too late. I can’t eat too much. Otherwise, my recent yoga practice will have been in vain.”

n

n“Okay, you don’t have to if you don’t want to. Hurry up and pack your things, then we’ll go home.”

n

n“There’s only one document left. I’ll leave after reading it.”

n

n“Do whatever you want. I’ll leave after I finish eating regardless. The decision is up to you.”

n

n“Tch, why are you so chauvinistic?”

n

nJi Qingyan went back to her desk after complaining. She was going to finish reading the last document while Lin Yi was eating.

n

nHowever, she didn’t finish reading the last document until after Lin Yi finished eating.

n

nThis was because she couldn’t help but look at Lin Yi.

n

nHe still came to see her this late at night.

n

nThose people who were lining up to send her flowers must be in the nightclub at this time.

n

n“I’m done. I’m leaving.”

n

n“I’m leaving too.”

n

nJi Qingyan didn’t plan to finish the last document.

n

nShe just needed to come early tomorrow.

n

nWith that, she closed her computer and tidied up. She was going to the fitting room to change her clothes and go home.

n

nRing, Ring, Ring…

n

nLin Yi’s phone rang, and he saw that it was Qin Han.

n

n“I’ll take care of that Shabi, so you should take it easy too.”

n

n“What’s there to be angry about, Young Master Qin?”

n

n“Haha, you’re so straightforward.” Qin Han laughed.

n

n“What are you doing now? I found a few A-list celebrities. Their bodies and looks are top-notch. You want to come over and have some fun? I’ll make it worth your time.”

n

nLin Yi looked up at Ji Qingyan and smiled:

n

n“I have better people around me. Forget about your so-called A-list celebrities.”
