Chapter 394: 394
As a result, the other party didn’t buy any of it. Pointing her tiny finger at Ye Tian, she said, “You made my sister miss dinner last night, and she didn’t have breakfast today either. What do you think should be done about this?”
Ye Tian saw two pairs of eyes looking straight at him, especially Xiao Jian’s eyes, which clearly held a fiery anger almost flaming out to burn him alive.
Just when Ye Tian was at a loss for words, Mo Yan wrapped in a black scarf erged, with a bun in her mouth and a red purse on her arm.
“Arriving this early?”
Upon seeing Mo Yan, the look in Xiao Jian’s eyes imdiately brightened up, as if upgrading from a candle to a high-powered spotlight. His small eyes glead with the hottest light, like a wolf’s. Mo Yu probably couldn’t stand his blatant gaze and said, “Your eyes are practically popping out, watch out or I might step on them.”
Hey, this girl, does she have a bit of femininity?
Mo Yan glared at her, and the latter shrank her neck, though she also kept silent.
“I’m going out for a bit, take a look at the docunts I gave you. When I’m gone, soone will inevitably trouble you, and I won’t be able to help you. By the way, hide Grandpa’s cigarettes, don’t let him find them.”
Not caring whether Mo Yu heard her, Mo Yan adjusted her black coat and walked out the door, turning back to look at Xiao Jian, “Got a car?”
It took a mont for Xiao Jian to respond, then he nodded and said, “Yes, yes, got a car. Where to?”
“Qingyu Technology. Let’s go now.”
Xiao Jian excitedly led the way, started the car ahead of them, and although he wasn’t sure why Mo Yan wanted to go there, he was still willing to help. After all, the fact that Mo Yan asked him to drive ant she didn’t consider him an outsider now.
It seed her spirits weren’t as bad as Mo Yu had described; she was quite enjoying the big bun in her mouth.
“Is it stuffed with chives?” Just after asking, Ye Tian felt like slapping himself. Who greets soone by asking about their bun’s filling?
“Hmm. I wanted fennel, but they were sold out. Do you want it? I still have one.” As she spoke, Mo Yan pulled another plastic bag from her purse, containing a bun, its top sticking with a couple of leek leaves.
Ye Tian waved his hand and swallowed; his spirits didn’t seem troubled.
“I can’t eat anymore, it’s yours.”
In the end, the bun still ended up in Xiao Jian’s hands, and the guy seed quite happy eating it.
During the trip, the three of them hardly spoke. Occasionally, Ye Tian would converse briefly with Xiao Jian beside him, with their topics limited to trivial things like whose crepes tasted better, making Ye Tian feel like he was turning into a gossip.
Finally, they reached Green Bird Technology, and the car’s awkward tension could finally break.
The car stopped at the company’s entrance, and the three of them got out, Mo Yan leading, with the two n trailing behind, looking sowhat sleazy. On the way, they encountered the man from the last test drive; Ye Tian recognized him, but the man did not recognize Ye Tian and rely waved at Mo Yan, then was surrounded by a group of people and taken elsewhere.
“Mo Yan, I heard your company has started collaborating with abroad. Congratulations are in order.”
Mo Yan didn’t react as excitedly as Xiao Jian, just humd indifferently. Xiao Jian, feeling awkward, turned to look at Ye Tian, who seed as distracted as Mo Yan; Xiao Jian began to wonder if he still had a chance at anything.
The three remained silent until they reached Mo Yan’s office door. Mo Yan turned to Ye Tian and asked, “She’s inside there. Have you thought it through, whether to go in or not?”
“Is that even a question?”
Ye Tian wanted to go in but was stopped by Mo Yan’s outstretched hand, “Do you rember what we agreed on yesterday?”
“Of course, I rember.”
“After seeing her, no matter what, you’ll follow . Your life is mine from now on, whatever I say, you do, even if it’s jumping into a sea of fire for !”
Her words were severe, out of her usual character. Ye Tian nodded, “This life was saved by you after all; naturally, I should return it to you.”
Mo Yan still seed reluctant, biting her lip, “Are you doing all this just for her?”
“Obviously, I owe her more than I can ever repay in a lifeti.”
Mo Yan’s raised arm suddenly trembled, as if all strength was sapped from it, “Alright, I understand. Go inside, but you better be ntally prepared.”
Just as Ye Tian was about to enter, even placing his right hand on the doorknob, he slowly let go, nervously rubbing his hands, looking at Mo Yan, “Is she really inside? I’m afraid she might… no, I’m afraid I might… heh, get a bit nervous.”
Mo Yan looked at him, “Don’t worry, her condition is very stable. Just go in, and make sure you’re prepared. Rember what you promised. I’ll wait outside for you; co out when it’s done.”
After saying this, Mo Yan turned and left, Xiao Jian glanced at Ye Tian, cluelessly followed Mo Yan out.
Ye Tian wiped the sweat from his palms, turned the doorknob, and walked in.
Inside the room, there was no one, not a single person.
…
Mo Yan exited the office building and sat in a chair inside the lobby, with undeniable sadness in her eyes. Xiao Jian sat beside her, unsure of what to say. Seeing the nearby water dispenser boil, he thought of getting her a glass of water, but before he could move, soone was already on his shoulder.
Mo Yan leaned weakly on his shoulder, the resilience in her gaze finally faded.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Jian was at a loss, only managing to sit stiffly, afraid that any slight movent would disturb Mo Yan on his shoulder.
They sat like that until Ye Tian ca down from upstairs, his expression neither excited nor slightly downhearted; his face was utterly calm. Unconcerned by the stares from people around, Ye Tian walked directly to Mo Yan’s side, quietly looked at her, and asked, “When are we going abroad?”
