Chapter 119 - Mrs. Ding: Come Home for Dinner!
11:50 am at the top floor office.
Si Zhengting’s silver white phone rang suddenly.
The reviewer paused, his knitted brows relaxed as a hint of excitement appeared in his dark eyes.
Was it noon already?
His cool gaze swept towards the phone and dimmed when he saw that the caller was Mrs. Ding, not her.
He answered the call, and Mrs. Ding’s concerned voice sounded, “Well, has Gu Qingyan recovered from the flu?”
“Yes.”
“Bring her over for dinner tonight and stay here. You can go to work from here tomorrow.”
A glimmer shone in Si Zhengting’s eyes. “Okay.”
He hung up as Ji Chen walked in. “Sir, you have an appointment with Boss Yao from Huayu Corporation at 12 noon today.”
Si Zhengting paused and looked towards the dining area. After a while, he replied, “Tell him to delay it for half an hour.”
He really prioritized eating with Madam.
Ji Chen nodded and had just finished rescheduling with Boss Yao when a text message came in.
Ji Chen’s lips twitched when he read Zhuang Nainai’s text and reported it to Si Zhengting, but he merely nodded, and his dark eyes betrayed no emotions.
At 12:15 pm, Si Zhengting packed up to leave. Ji Chen stood behind him reverently in the elevator.
Looking at the descending floors, he thought of a certain someone who had been lying at home for the past two days and asked, “The design team has been very busy lately?”
Ji Chen had long found out about the situation and replied, “Everyone in the design team is busy with the upcoming 100th-year-anniversary celebration.”
He saw Si Zhengting’s gaze darken and hurriedly added, “I’ve arranged for May to check on them. If Madam has not eaten by 12:30 pm, lunchboxes from Ju De Restaurant will be delivered.”
Si Zhengting gave a nod of approval.
The elevator door opened with a ding.
Si Zhengting walked out from the elevator with his eyes fixed in front of him.
On the other side, Zhuang Nainai had stopped in front of the employee lift. She looked over towards the sound of the CEO elevator landing, but she was blocked by a mountain of lunchboxes.
Zhuang Nainai was momentarily stunned and looked over the top of the lunchboxes to find Su Jinhui smiling next to her. “Zhuang Nainai, you run really fast!”
Men are indeed stronger. He carried ten lunchboxes in one hand and twenty in the other, and he could still lift them up to block her face.
Zhuang Nainai found the image of him delivering lunch in a suit extremely amusing and laughed out loud.
Right then, the employee lift arrived and everyone made way for them. Zhuang Nainai and Su Jinhui entered the lift.
The door was about to close when Si Zhengting walked past it.
His gaze was initially fixed to the front, but he suddenly turned as if he’d realized something.
In the lift, Zhuang Nainai could hold onto the lunchboxes no more and had stacked them up in her arms instead, blocking her face.
Ji Chen looked over in Si Zhengting’s line of sight and smiled. “Looks like it’s not just the venue design team that’s busy at work, Su Jinhui from the fashion design team is also helping to bring back lunch.”
Si Zhengting did not hear him and wondered why the figure that had flashed across looked so much like Zhuang Nainai.
Zhuang Nainai was in venue design, why would she be buying lunch with Su Jinhui?
“Sir, we have to hurry or we will be late,” Ji Chen reminded him.
Si Zhengting left the matter behind and hastened his pace out of the building.
