Chapter 305: She’s Actually Back

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Zheng Yue planned to report back to the company.

It had been nearly two months since she fell off the cliff.

However, ever since Nan Kang fled, he had never looked for her. Not to mention seeing him, he did not even give her a call or a message.

Therefore, Zheng Yue decided that it was more appropriate to take the initiative to give him a “surprise”, or rather, a shock.

“Uncle, go to…” Zheng Yue raised her hand to hail a taxi and gave him an address.

Perhaps sensing the antic.i.p.ation in Zheng Yue’s heart, the taxi arrived in less than ten minutes.

She entered through the main door and walked to the elevator as usual. She pressed the b.u.t.ton and went upstairs.

“I’ve already changed the proposal 37 times, but now, he says that the previous one is better…”

The elevator door slowly opened and she heard someone complaining outside.

Zheng Yue took a step out without changing her expression and interrupted the person outside.

“I’m really impressed… Zheng Yue?” The complaining person was surprised.

Zheng Yue looked up at him and recognized this person as an employee of the company. His name was He Chen.

As for the person who listened to He Chen’s complaints, he turned around and left after hearing the footsteps. His footsteps were hurried, probably because he was afraid that he would be snitched on. Zheng Yue looked away indifferently.

At the same time, He Chen was also surprised by Zheng Yue’s appearance. Looking at her standing in front of him, his eyes flashed with surprise.

Was she so beautiful previously?

Zheng Yue exuded an exquisite aura from head to toe. The well-tailored windbreaker made her figure look slender and charming. The skin on her face seemed to be so fair that it could glow. It was so tender that it seemed like water could be squeezed out of it. It immediately softened her age, making Zheng Yue look even more obedient.

Especially when she looked at him with her watery eyes, He Chen really felt his heart tremble fiercely, even making him feel like he had fallen into her eyes.

He Qing cleared his throat. “You haven’t been here for a few months. Where have you been?”

He pretended to ask with concern, but he could not help but look at Zheng Yue’s face, attracted by her beautiful eyebrows.

“I was sick,” Zheng Yue replied vaguely.

Other than herself and Murong Qiao, who knew about her movements, Zheng Yue did not intend to tell anyone else what she had experienced.

He Chen looked worried. “Then you have to take care of your health. After all, your health is your capital for work.”

His att.i.tude changed quickly. He looked at her with a faint fervor in his eyes. It was obvious that he was interested in Zheng Yue.

“Alright, I’ll leave first.” Zheng Yue bade farewell.

Her target was Nan Kang, so there was no need to waste time on people unrelated to her.

However, Zheng Yue could sense He Chen’s gaze on her. Her lowered eyes flickered as she secretly remembered He Chen’s att.i.tude towards her.

She quickly returned to her previous office and went to the table to put her things back in their usual positions.

Knock knock.

She knocked on the President’s office door with the doc.u.ments in her hand.

“Come in.” Nan Kang’s voice came from inside.

Zheng Yue’s lips curved. After Nan Kang finished speaking, she pushed the door open and walked in. Then, she slowly placed the doc.u.ments on the table.

Nan Kang frowned and looked very anxious. His eyes were fixed on the computer screen, so he didn’t notice that the person who came in was Zheng Yue.

Because after Zheng Yue disappeared, the previous secretary took over her original job, so Nan Kang only thought that the secretary had knocked on the door to look for him.

He stared at the screen and only used his ears to listen for sounds. When he heard the footsteps stop beside him and did not move for a long time, Nan Kang waved his hand in frustration, wanting the secretary to leave.

“You can just put the files there—”

He spoke impatiently, but when he opened his mouth and took a deep breath, he smelled something that made him relax.

It was familiar and gentle, mixed with a hint of purity.

This fragrance was too to his liking, so much so that Nan Kang wanted to look up, but he saw Zheng Yue standing beside him.

Nan Kang raised his voice for a moment. “Zheng Yue?”

When he saw Zheng Yue standing beside him, Nan Kang felt his heart skip a beat.

The impatience and anger from when he spoke just now had all disappeared. Instead, the emotions that appeared on Nan Kang’s face were a flash of guilt and shock.

Zheng Yue smiled at him, and her eyebrows moved, forming a playful arc, just like when she used to wait for Nan Kang to return at home.

However, the difference was that the current Zheng Yue was even more beautiful. Her gentle smile was extremely bright, as if it could seduce one’s soul, affecting Nan Kang’s thoughts at this moment.

“It’s been a long time,” she said.

Nan Kang quickly recovered from his shock and composed himself.

He looked at Zheng Yue steadily and studied her face for a long time before saying.

“Why didn’t you contact me and came back directly?” Nan Kang softened his voice.

Seeing the bright smile on Zheng Yue’s face, Nan Kang even felt that the two of them were still the same as before, and his att.i.tude softened.

Zheng Yue clasped her hands in front of her. She looked a little nervous, but this action made her look even more obedient.

She smiled and replied, “I wanted to give you a surprise.”

Zheng Yue carefully took a step forward and stood beside Nan Kang, leaning close to him.

Seeing that Zheng Yue was so obedient, Nan Kang’s guilty conscience disappeared. Instead, he felt more complacent and happy about controlling the situation.

“It’s good that you’re back.” He nodded.

No matter what, Nan Kang still tacitly agreed to Zheng Yue’s return to the company.

The next day, Zheng Yue took the time to go to the pantry to make coffee.

“Zheng Yue!” He Chen appeared out of nowhere. “Do you remember me, He Chen?”

His tone was very familiar. He leaned against the counter beside Zheng Yue with a cup of mellow coffee in his hand and smiled at her.

Zheng Yue’s att.i.tude was cold. “Yes.”

She stood in front of the water dispenser and waited, not even looking at him.

Seeing that she was ignoring her, He Chen took a sip of coffee to ease the awkwardness.

“By the way, are you free tonight? I happened to get two movie tickets from a friend.”

He Chen did not beat around the bush. After greeting her, he revealed his intentions.

When he asked Zheng Yue, he looked at Zheng Yue’s beautiful side profile with a burning gaze. The more he looked at her, the more he felt that she was good-looking. His little mind was restless, and he couldn’t hold it in anymore.

Seeing that the other party was very concerned about her, how could Zheng Yue not understand what He Chen wanted?

“I—” Zheng Yue was about to speak.

However, from the corner of her eye, she saw a pair of feet standing at the door of the pantry. The style of the leather shoes was extremely familiar.

Zheng Yue changed her words. “I do have time tonight.”

She turned around to look at He Chen and suddenly smiled. Her att.i.tude changed from cold to gentle, so quickly that He Chen was not used to it.

“All, then let’s set a time.” He Chen was overjoyed.

Seeing that Zheng Yue said that she had time, He Chen immediately felt that his chance had come.

He hurriedly took out his cell phone, wanting to add Zheng Yue’s contact number. However, before he could take out his cell phone, he heard crisp footsteps behind him.

It was the sound of the heel of a leather shoe hitting the ground. There were not many people in the company who wore leather shoes, so the first person he thought of was Nan Kang.

“Have you finished amending the proposal?”

In the next second, a devilish whisper sounded behind him.

Oh no.

He Chen smiled apologetically. “I’ll go and finish it now.”

From Nan Kang’s tone, he knew that nothing good would happen. His intuition as a worker advised him to slip away quickly.

At this moment, he couldn’t care less about flirting. He ran faster than a rabbit and disappeared in the blink of an eye..
