May Jiang Yan and her Senior Chu find their happily ever after.
After school that afternoon, Ye Wan went directly to the canteen, bought ingredients from the boss, and made a bowl of longevity noodles for herself. She also prepared another portion of tomato and egg sauce. After dividing them into two containers and paying, she left the school carrying the food box.
This time, Ye Wan didn't wait foolishly. She sought help from Jin Lan, who in turn contacted Gu Yunting's secretary to escort Ye Wan upstairs.
The receptionist, who had been watching Ye Wan with amusement, was surprised to see the President's secretary personally come to fetch Ye Wan and warmly lead her upstairs. The two exchanged glances, realizing they would never underestimate this young lady again.
The secretary led Ye Wan to the President's office and said, "The President is currently in a meeting. Please wait for him here."
Ye Wan thanked the secretary and timidly sat down in Gu Yunting's office. It was her first time in his office. It was incredibly spacious, and the decor was very much like him – cold, with black and gray as the primary colors. One side featured a floor-to-ceiling window, offering unbeatable natural light.
The noodles were packed separately, so there was no fear of them getting cold if left for a while. Ye Wan waited for about half an hour. The office door was pushed open, and Gu Yunting walked in first.
He moved quickly, his face stern. Upon seeing Ye Wan in the office, his expression grew even colder. He stopped in his tracks and demanded, "Who let her in?" Da Feng Novel Network
Gu Yunting's phone rang. He glanced at it, saw it was Jin Lan calling, and answered. After the call, his expression remained grim, but he no longer questioned who had let Ye Wan in.
The office door was closed, and the person who was supposed to report for duty was kept outside. The man strode in and sat down at his desk.
Ye Wan walked over, carrying the noodles, and said, "I borrowed a stove at the canteen after school to cook you a bowl of noodles. Try it and see if it's good."
"Take it away. This is not a place for you," Gu Yunting's expression showed no signs of softening.
Ye Wan's heart shriveled slightly. She knew she shouldn't have come here to find him; it truly wasn't her place. If he hadn't refused to see her under any circumstances, she wouldn't have resorted to this.
She lowered her head slightly and said, "I understand. I won't do it again. Please don't throw away these noodles. I know you don't want to see me now, so I'll leave immediately."
Ye Wan quickly opened the containers of noodles and sauce, placed them in front of Gu Yunting, and turned to walk out of the office.
Gu Yunting watched the girl's retreating back, his anger inexplicably rising again. He knew he shouldn't see her; whenever he saw her, he was bound to get angry.
After Ye Wan left the office, Gu Yunting intended to throw the noodles away. Suddenly, a small head poked back in. "Don't throw them away! I made these noodles myself; they're very delicious."
After saying that, she quickly retracted her head and closed the door.
Gu Yunting's hand, poised to discard the food, froze. He couldn't bring himself to do it. Angrily, he slammed his fist on the desk and prepared to work, but the aroma of the noodles and sauce continuously wafted into his nose, making it impossible for him to focus on his work.
Remembering her words that she had made the noodles herself, he hesitated for a moment before bringing the two containers closer. He poured the sauce over the noodles, picked up his chopsticks, stirred them, and took a bite.
The taste was completely different from the stir-fried noodles before, and the texture of the noodles was also distinct. Hand-pulled noodles had a chewier texture, and this time, the sauce contained more ingredients. The noodles and sauce blended together, creating an exceptionally delicious flavor.
By the time Gu Yunting had finished analyzing it, he had already devoured the entire bowl of noodles.
