Chapter 1518: Chapter 1518: What Are You Afraid Of If You Didn’t Do Anything Wrong?
“It’s your own foot that’s twisted and in pain, not a wrongdoing, so what are you afraid of?” Jin Chenye stepped forward and raised his hand to ruffle her hair. “Have you applied an ice pack? If it’s uncomfortable, have someone take you to the hospital. I’ll keep an eye on things here.”
“I’m fine. I will wait until the food exposition is over before leaving. If I leave now, I won’t feel at ease.” Ye Mingmei’s eyes twinkled as she muttered.
“Then sit tight, fortunately your task today is to monitor the surveillance, if you were asked to patrol the venue, it would have really been tough.” Seeing her nervous expression, Jin Chenye teased her lightly.
“Why would someone want to poison the Ye Family’s ingredients? Do you think someone is behind this?” Ye Mingmei still felt shaken recalling the scene from earlier.
If they had been the slightest bit careless, the entire food exposition would be in chaos by now.
Does Yu Xiuzhun hate the Ye Family so much that he is eager to take action?
“Let’s wait for the results of the police investigation. As long as we ensure the food exposition ends smoothly, there won’t be any problems.” A flicker of coldness passed through Jin Chenye’s eyes and then vanished.
“…”
Ye Mingmei bit her lip, nodded obediently, and didn’t ask further.
Her gaze returned to the monitor, watching earnestly and responsibly.
Jin Chenye stayed with her for a while, then went back to patrolling the venue.
This time, he patrolled the area that Qin Youxuan was in charge of.
Ye Mingmei could see the two come face to face from the monitoring area. They exchanged just a few words before parting, as distant as if they were strangers.
Ye Mingmei couldn’t hear what they were saying but could feel that Qin Youxuan seemed not wanting to chat; after greeting Jin Chenye, she turned and left first.
Remembering the question asked by the media earlier, Ye Mingmei propped her chin with one hand, sinking into thought.
Jin Chenye was at GW at the same time as Qin Youxuan was there.
They should know each other, yet whenever she mentioned Jin Chenye to Su Yiru, Qin Youxuan seemed unresponsive.
Even when discussing romantic relationships, Qin Youxuan never said much.
They are siblings who studied abroad together; had Qin Youxuan ever met Jin Chenye’s girlfriend?
Thinking of this, Ye Mingmei frowned.
She always felt something was off but couldn’t pinpoint what it was.
Shaking her head, Ye Mingmei didn’t allow herself to be distracted for too long, resuming her careful monitoring.
…
When the food exposition ended, everyone was exhausted.
After being on edge all day, tension released all at once, and almost simultaneously, all the staff erupted into cheers.
Celebrating Ye Group’s official survival through the crisis.
“Everyone must be very tired by now, but the final tasks haven’t been completed yet. We cannot let our guard down. Just hold on for one more hour. On behalf of Ye Group, I promise that all employees involved in this event will receive triple their daily wage as a reward for their hard work.”
Jin Chenye walked back to the lobby with Qin Youxuan, his voice gentle and unhurried.
Despite today’s hastily arranged event having various shortcomings.
Despite the fact that many ill-intentioned people were looking for opportunities to cause trouble, all crises were resolved one by one, as if no plan could escape his control.
The two walked into the crowd together.
Jin Chenye’s handsome figure ascended the platform, taking the microphone used for the press conference, his voice deep and resonant, spreading throughout the venue.
“All departments, count your staff and remaining tasks, finish up the work as soon as possible, and then clock out. The summary of the exposition will take place at 11:00 a.m. tomorrow. You can consider the morning as rest time for everyone.”
