Chapter 29: Came For You (1)
The cafeteria was full of people.
The two stood together, one before the other. The handsome man and woman looked well matched.
Although not everyone could hear the conversation between the two, they could clearly see the expressions on their faces.
The smile on the extremely beautiful face of the woman made many men stare with their mouths agape and their eyes unable to look away. And the helplessness on Fu Yanzhi''s face was also clearly visible.
All the colleagues who thought they knew him, had never seen such an expression on his face before.
And Fu Yanzhi right now was indeed feeling helpless.
He looked down at her and asked in a low voice, "How are you?"
What?
Ji Qingyings lips curled as she smiled, How am I such a know-it-all?
Fu Yanzhi shook his head.
Ji Qingyingughed and asked, "Did you know how I felt on the first day I saw you?"
She said frankly, "If I wasnt who I am now, how would I have reached this stage?"
It was true.
For people with personalities like his, they needed someone with a character like hers in order to develop further.
Fu Yanzhi was speechless.
He took back his gaze and changed the subject abruptly, "What do you want to eat?"
The corners of her lips curled as she smiled while ncing at his red ears, and decided to let him go for the time being.
"How about you rmend me something?"
Okay.
The two selected a meal set and found a random ce to sit down.
As she tasted the ribs, which looked pretty good, her expression showed that she was quite intrigued.
"This one"
Fu Yanzhi stared at her.
Ji Qingying took a bite of rice, then raised her head and said, "It tastes just like you said, reallymon."
Fu Yanzhi said "Um. Try some vegetarian dishes."
"Oh."
Ji Qingying tasted it and found that the vegetarian dishes were not bad.
But the taste of the ribs wasnt really that good.
"Vegetarian dishes are ok."
Fu Yanzhi nodded.
Ji Qingying looked at him calmly and was a little curious, "Is the food in your cafeteria always the same?"
Fu Yanzhi nced at her, thought about it, and said, "Kind of."
"Then how are you able to eat it?"
"Im used to it."
Ji Qingying: ""
To her, the taste wasnt something that one could just get used to.
She didnt know how to describe it. All in all, the taste of the ribs was just in weird. It wasnt necessarily bad, but the first bite definitely felt strange.
She stared at the food on her te for a while, and after a while just decided on eating the vegetarian dishes.
Both of them ate quietly. Ji Qingying didnt speak, and Fu Yanzhi basically had nothing to say.
After a while, she heard him speak up.
"Can''t eat the ribs?"
Ji Qingying nodded in embarrassment, "Yes."
Fu Yanzhi had an indescribable expression on his face as he whispered, "Give them to me."
Startled, she stared at his face and asked, "What?"
Before she finished speaking, Fu Yanzhi had already picked up the ribs from her dinner te and started eating.
His actions were elegant and there was no expression of disgust on his face.
As if it was very normal for him to do so.
Looking at Fu Yanzhi''s actions, it wasnt only Ji Qingying who was genuinely surprised, because even the colleagues secretly observing them received a shock.
Su Wanying''s face looked very ugly.
If she remembered correctly, Fu Yanzhi was always obsessed with hygiene. He never let others touch his things, much less eat the leftovers that others had touched.
Her most impressionable memory
Was her first internship, when Su Wanying and Fu Yanzhi had been assigned to the same department
She graciously poured water for him several times. He epted it very politely and in a gentlemanly manner, but didn''t drink even a sip.
It was by chance, that she had figured out his obsession with hygiene and that he did not like when others touched his things, especially cups and the like.
Every time she pretended to pour water into his cup, Fu Yanzhi would not drink it. And when no one was around he would pour everything out then wash the cup thoroughly.
After that, Su Wanying never dared to touch his personal belongings again.
But now
She stared at the two people sitting on the opposite side, her eyes red as if she was suffering from congestion.
He didn''t even care about eating the leftover food from the woman sitting in front of him and didnt even show any signs of disapproval.
Her eyes stopped on that woman she didnt know.
She had met her at the entrance of the department.
She was indeed as beautiful and elegant as everyone had said. Not to mention she was brighter than all the women who had ever pursued Fu Yanzhi.
It was almost impossible to ignore her.
But she didn''t think that Fu Yanzhi was a man who only looked at someones face.
"Fu Yanzhi."
Ji Qingying nced in the direction of the burning gaze that she was receiving and turned to look at the man seated on the opposite side.
Fu Yanzhi raised his head.
While supporting her chin with her hand, she observed him as he ate his meal and asked in a low voice, "You don''t dislike me."
It was more of a statement than a question
Just as Fu Yanzhi finished the food on both of their tes, he raised his head to look at her, and said, "Don''t waste food."
Ji Qingying: "Oh."
She immediately looked obedient as if she was taught a lesson and promised, "It wont happen next time."
Fu Yanzhis eyes narrowed, but he didntment on it and instead said, "Let''s go."
Okay.
Outside the cafeteria
Ji Qingying didn''t dare take too much of his time fearing he would be dyed and took her leave straight away.
By the time Fu Yanzhi had returned to his office, the hospital had been flooded with the news that he and a beauty wearing a cheongsam had been dining in the cafeteria.
As soon as he sat down, he got a call from Lin Haoran.
