BXBX NOVEL Chapter 178 - 178 Are You Hungry?
He Yanfeng’s gaze showed impatience in response to that. He came from an impoverished family, and especially hated people who were so full of themselves. This is more so for Cai Rixi’s current demeanor, as she poked a majorly sore spot for him.
He Yanfeng bowed his head and attempted to veil the displeasure in his gaze, and did not pay Cai Rixi any more notice.
He turned to Ming Liuyi beside him, and asked, “Have you eaten? Are you hungry?”
!!
She had been fine before he asked, but once he did, Ming Liuyi’s stomach rumbled.
Cai Rixi gave a condescending laugh. ‘Ming Liuyi is an embarrassment! A mere country bumpkin is truly uncouth, after all.’
Ming Liuyi did not feel the slightest bit of embarrassment, and immediately responded, “I rushed here and hadn’t had lunch yet.”
He Yanfeng said, “This snack looks like it’s popular among the ladies. Would you like to try it?”
Ming Liuyi took a look at the time and said, “But you’re probably heading back for classes soon, right?”
He Yanfeng glanced at his watch and said, “It’s fine. I’ll just apply for leave right away.”
Ming Liuyi looked at Cai Rixi and said, “No, I don’t have any appetite to eat here. If you’re hungry, we could go somewhere else.”
After saying that, Ming Liuyi got up to leave with He Yanfeng and Mr. He.
Cai Rixi exclaimed in surprise, “You’re leaving without even finishing your discussion?”
Ming Liuyi deliberately responded, “Oh my, why are you still here? Aren’t you leaving after giving your threats? If you like it here, you may stay. We are leaving.”
Ming Liuyi walked a few steps before turning around to say, “That’s right. Thank you for treating Teacher Feng to coffee. Don’t forget to pick up the tab later.”
Cai Rixi was speechless.
Ming Liuyi and the other two left the café and went straight to the car. The car door opened automatically, and He Yanfeng could see a person seated inside. He had a handsome face and a slender figure. Even while sitting down casually, he emitted an aura of authority, which caused He Yanfeng to be a little starstruck.
Ming Liuyi introduced him. “Feng, this is my husband, Yao Zizhou. The last time we were all at a picnic, I let him wear a sunhat, so you probably didn’t see his face clearly.”
Yao Zizhou spoke coolly, “I didn’t expect that, even as a vegetable, I had such an interesting time.”
He Yanfeng said, “Nice to meet you.”
Upon hearing the name that was given, He Yanfeng could not help but think that it sounded extremely familiar.
After a moment’s recollection, he suddenly remembered. ‘Yao Zizhou is the President of Yao Cooperation! I’ve seen his pictures before!’
He Yanfeng then turned to Ming Liuyi. ‘So this Ming Liuyi… is the wife of the president?’
He Yanfeng did not know how to react to that. He had received too much information for the day. He could not help but recall more details.
Before this, He Yanfeng thought that Ming Liuyi’s husband was simply a rich but comatose person. From the looks of it, it was not that simple.
‘Thinking about it this way, then Ming Liuyi’s sponsorship is entirely a private visit by the wife of the president, doing good deeds in a low-key way?’
Furthermore, Ming Liuyi had personally gone to his house before, ate his mother’s wontons, and even had some to go when she left.
This wife of a CEO… is truly down to earth.
Had it been anyone else, it would be difficult not to suspect that Ming Liuyi had personal motives to visit He Yanfeng’s family. He Yanfeng was a smart guy. Even if he were truly outstanding, there was no way the wife of a president would have the foresight to make a visit that far in advance, especially since president Yao Zizhou was a full vegetable back then.
He Yanfeng could still remember how Yao Zizhou looked like that day during the picnic, where he was fully reliant on others for care. And yet, at seeing how he looked in a suit today, with his back straight and his form exuding the aura of a king, He Yanfeng’s eyes immediately felt a little warm with tears.
How he wished that his father, too, could one day recover and continue to give He Yanfeng guidance in life.
He Yanfeng suppressed his emotions and said, “It’s good to see you again. I’m glad that you’re awake. You’re really blessed.”
‘Blessed?’
Upon hearing this, Yao Zizhou turned subconsciously to his wife with a smile at the corner of his lips.
That was true. Meeting his wife was indeed his greatest blessing.
Yao Zizhou responded, “You’re quite remarkable as well. When your father wakes, he will be very proud of you. The Yao Corporations’ employees have many bonuses and other incentives. If you join us, you will not regret it.”
He Yanfeng immediately said, “I’ve already signed the contract.”
Ming Liuyi immediately interrupted their businesslike conversation and said, “Welcome to the team, Teacher Feng. Let’s have a meal to celebrate.”
Yao Zizhou looked at her in adoration and said, “That’s right. We’ll do as my wife says. Mr. He, go make the arrangements.”
…
After the owner of the Dreamsource Hotel received the call, he immediately set aside all tasks and personally stood at the hotel entrance to wait for Yao Zizhou and his entourage.
