"An Nuan, I'm leaving first."
After leaving those words, she closed the door and walked away.
Pressing the button for the elevator to go down, he watched the numbers light up, feeling increasingly anxious. It was better to leave early.
Finally, with a 'ding,' the elevator stopped. Di Ming felt a surge of joy, thinking he could finally escape. However, the moment the elevator doors slowly opened, he felt like his luck had run out.
The smile on his face gradually froze as Ye Shao's exquisite and cold features came fully into view. Di Ming cursed his bad luck inwardly.
He instinctively glanced at the time; logically, the meeting shouldn't have ended yet. Why was Ye Shao back so early?
"Ye... Ye Shao?"
Forcing himself to greet her, Di Ming awkwardly smiled, feeling as if the muscles at the corners of his mouth were about to cramp from the effort. Ye Shao cast him a cold glance that made him feel as if he had been frozen in place.
"Leaving?"
Ye Shao asked lazily. Di Ming understood her implication; it was a subtle inquiry about whether he had completed his task.
To leave without finishing the task? Wasn't that just asking for trouble?
"Um..."
He elongated his tone, looking into Ye Shao's deep eyes that seemed capable of seeing through everything. After a moment of awkwardness, an idea suddenly struck him: "It was An Nuan; she asked me to check if you were back."
"Heh."
Ye Shao let out a sarcastic laugh, seeing through him but choosing not to expose it.
The girl had just gone out of her way to annoy him in the morning, and now she was suddenly concerned about him, even calling Di Ming to check if he was back.
"Di Ming, during today's meeting, Manager Lu said the project on West Sea Island has been secured."
"Hmm?"
What did the West Sea Island project have to do with him?
Di Ming scratched the back of his head, utterly confused. Why was he being informed about a project that Manager Lu was fully responsible for?
"Manager Lu said he needed more hands because he couldn't manage alone."
"So?" Di Ming asked nervously, taking small steps backward and hurriedly pressing the elevator button to go down, hoping it would arrive quickly to take him away.
He did not want to go to the West Sea Island project.
Although it was just about building a resort, it was still on an island. Turning a desolate island into a beautiful resort would be a tough job.
Even if he was just supervising, he would still be exposed to the wind and sun.
He wouldn’t go; he was determined not to go.
Wanting to hide, Ye Yunfeng coldly curled his lips. "One week."
"No..."
Di Ming struggled desperately. Ye Yunfeng paid him no mind and turned to enter the house. Hearing the door slam shut with a loud bang made Di Ming let out a desperate scream.
At the same time, inside the house, An Nuan had just finished cooking scrambled eggs with tomatoes. As she was about to serve them, she heard that heart-wrenching scream and nearly dropped the plate in shock.
She placed the dishes down and hurried outside to take a look.
That was Di Ming's voice. Could he have gotten caught in the elevator?
Worrying about it, she unexpectedly bumped into Ye Yunfeng as she exited the kitchen.
"Where's Di Ming?"
An Nuan asked anxiously, and Ye Yunfeng frowned slightly. "Why are you asking about him?"
"I just heard him scream."
"He's having a fit."
Ye Yunfeng pushed her back into the kitchen. "Focus on your cooking."
"Is he really okay?"
"He won't die."
Ye Yunfeng seemed unconcerned, and An Nuan thought that since Di Ming was Ye Yunfeng's assistant, he wouldn't let anything serious happen to him. With that in mind, she stopped worrying. She put the vegetables into the pot, while Ye Yunfeng leaned closer. "Where's my steak?"
