After the meeting, the two interns, Ye Xingguang and Rebecca Perry, stayed behind to tidy up the office. While cleaning the table, Rebecca flashed a smile: “Yestar, you really outshined everyone today.”
“l can’t help it if I’m particularly capable.”
Ye Xingguang didn’t want to modestly downplay in front of Rebecca.
“Hah, ‘particularly capable’, that’s hilarious. Is that what they call whining, causing a scene, and threatening to top yourself now? You and the ‘Coypu Girl’ both drew numbers at the North District’s Civil Affairs Bureau on the same day, how come your luck wasn’t as good as hers?”
“My official partner will naturally cherish me.”
“Really? Yun Chen is coming to pick me up after work. He’s been quite nervous that your draw might have been a lopsided melon. Maybe you should have your official partner come pick you up as well. It would put Yun Chen at ease and allow me to catch a glimpse of how cherished you really are.”
Have Lord Ye come pick her up from work?
Probably not even in the next life.
Ye Xingguang didn’t feel like dealing with Rebecca, so after cleaning up the rubbish on the table, she headed out. But Rebecca blocked her, “What’s wrong? Bluffing and now afraid you’ll be called on it? Don’t dare to call your official partner over, huh?”
“What should I be afraid of? You just wait and see, I’ll blind you with all the brightness!”
Ye Xingguangs prideful remark lingered in the air as she left with determination. noveldrama
At the end of the day, when she was about to leave work, she saw Yun Chen pulling up in an Audi to pick up Rebecca. The car was clearly brand new, with a temporary license plate still hanging off it.
Yun Chen had a bouquet of red roses in his hand. After Rebecca received the roses, she stood on her tiptoes and gave Yun Chen a delicate kiss on his forehead. Following this, she held his hand and peeked at Ye Xingguang with a blissful look on her face,
Ye Xingguang pretended not to see them. ‘Blissful, my ass! Yesterday you were poking me for regret medicine, who are you showing off to now?’
She didn’t want to look at that lovey-dovey couple, but they stood right in her way.
“Yestar, I’ve heard that your partner is very good to you. Is he picking you up after work?” Yun Chen asked, feeling somewhat guilty. Hearing Rebecca’s claim heartened him a bit, and he couldn’t resist verifying it with Ye Xingguang.
Ye Xingguang didn’t even glance at Yun Chen, she simply walked around the two of them.
She then stood by the road, hoping that her driver would arrive soon. Whether she could regain her dignity depended on him.
The driver assigned to her by the Ye’s family was in his twenties and a reportedly retired soldier. While he might not be as good-looking as Yun Chen, the car he drove was unquestionably superior to an Audi. That’s why she dared to drop big words in front of Rebecca.
But she noticed the time – she had clearly set a pick-up time with the driver, so why hadn’t he arrived?
While she was fretting, a message popped up on her phone.
It was from her driver, [Miss Ye, the car broke down on the road, do you want to take a taxi home?]
Ye Xingguang:
What awful luck! Just when she needed her driver to make an appearance, he couldn’t show up. What now? Let Rebecca have the last laugh?
“Of course it’s true. Yestar told me herself, she even said that her official partner practically wants to hold her in the palms of his hands. Right, Yestar?” Rebecca, leaning against Yun Chen, laughed out her question.
Seeing Ye Xingguang remain silent, Rebecca continued, “Yun Chen, if you don’t believe, why don’t we wait here together for Yestar’s partner?”
Ye Xingguang planned to board the subway after the couple left. In her heart, there were a million curses she wanted to bestow upon Rebecca.
But for the sake of face, she secretly opened a car-hailing app and called for an upscale car that was better than an Audi. She then stood by the road, waiting nonchalantly.
Unexpectedly, less than a minute later, a convoy of pure silver elongated Bentley Mulsannes thundered to her location. The grandeur of this sight instantly outshone everything and everyone around….
