Chapter 70



Ye Nanning took the milk and went back. To be exact, she was driven out by Du Xiran.

She looked down at the milk. It was indeed delicious. It was a pity that Mr. Du didn't like it. She really shouldn't have recommended it to him again and again. Wasn't she just trying to make things worse?

She sighed in frustration, returned to her workstation and continued working, and handed the milk to Xu Huan beside her.

"For me? Thanks." Xu Huan took it without hesitation and put it next to the computer. He continued to drink the milk tea that had just arrived. He talked to her about work matters, then looked in Ming Shuang's direction and asked in a low voice, "You are quite familiar with Ming Shuang. What do you think of her work?"

Ye Nanning: "We...are not very familiar with each other."

"We're not familiar with each other yet. She talks more to you and Hu Jiaxu." Xu Huan said, "Just tell me a little bit about her work."

It's no wonder Xu Huan is curious. Xu Huan has been working as an assistant for more than two years and wants to be promoted quickly. But now a very competitive opponent has come. At their level, promotions are not necessarily based on years of service. If someone gets promoted before her, it would be really embarrassing.

Ye Nanning thought for a moment and said, "I don't know much about her work and I haven't paid attention to it."

Xu Huan looked at her doubtfully.

"It's true. We hardly ever talk about business." Ye Nanning said sincerely, "But I know you. You work very hard and have experience and ability. You are no worse than her."

"Really?" Xu Huan was obviously pleased by these words, and smiled so hard that his teeth were showing. "Hello, Xiaoye. When I get promoted, I will definitely treat you to a good meal!"

"Okay." Ye Nanning nodded.

Du Xiran didn't have to work overtime at night. She passed by her subordinates' workstations with her bag in her hand. She caught a glimpse of the bottle of milk on Xu Huan's desk. She turned around, walked over to Xu Huan and asked, "How is the task going?"

"I'm working on it. I'll be able to give it to you tomorrow morning." Xu Huan said.

Du Xiran glanced at Ye Nanning's workstation. It was empty. She must have gone to eat or go to the bathroom. She picked up the milk and looked at it casually: "Where did this come from?"

"Oh, Xiaoye gave it to me. I haven't drunk it yet. Do you want some?"

Xu Huan was just asking out of politeness, thinking that she wouldn't covet the box of milk, but who knew that Du Xiran actually wanted to take it away: "Okay, I'll take it then."

Xu Huan: “…?”

When Ye Nanning finished her meal and returned to her seat, she heard Xu Huan's accusation: "Xiao Ye, I'm sorry for you. The loving milk you gave me was snatched away by Princess Du. I just asked casually, and she seized it."

Ye Nanning was surprised: "Boss Du took the milk away?"

"Yes." Xu Huan wanted to cry but had no tears.

Ye Nanning pondered for a moment and suspected that President Du’s initial refusal was due to her tsundere nature, and that taking Xu Huan’s milk later revealed her true nature after being tsundere. After all, she just liked to drink it!

But the most urgent thing was to give Xu Huan another one. She said, "Wait a minute, I'll get you another box."

Xu Huan paused: "Ah? There's more?"

"Yeah." Ye Nanning stood up, walked behind Mingshuang, stretched out her finger, and slowly poked Mingshuang's shoulder.

Ming Shuang turned around and saw that it was her. She immediately put on a smile and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Milk, I'll buy you one...three more boxes." Ye Nanning said in a low voice.

Mingshuang opened the drawer, and there were more than a dozen boxes neatly arranged inside: "These are all given to you for free."

Ye Nanning: “No.”

"Okay, let's exchange it for an equal amount. How about you make me a lunch box tomorrow?" Ming Shuang handed her the cleaned lunch box. "Today's is delicious. I hope I can eat something as delicious tomorrow."

Ye Nanning looked conflicted. Seeing her suddenly holding her cheeks, as if she was about to act coquettishly again, she quickly looked around, afraid of attracting other people's attention. Then she thought that since they had done it once, it would not be impossible to do it again, so she hurriedly said, "Okay."

Mingshuang smiled and helped her move the milk to her seat, which stunned Xu Huan and others.

Ye Nanning gave a bottle to each of her colleagues and put the rest in a drawer, which were all left for Du Xiran.

The next morning, Du Xiran saw Ye Nanning preparing three lunch boxes again, and frowned slightly: "Are they for Mingshuang again?"

"Well, today is the last time." Ye Nanning said.

Du Xiran looked indifferent and thought to himself: Oh, you said the same thing yesterday!

After arriving at the company, Ye Nanning gave the lunch box to Mingshuang, then took out a box of milk from the drawer and ran to Du Xiran's office. Finding that no one was there, she put the milk down, thinking that there were still several bottles left, so she could meet President Du several times.

Du Xiran returned to the office from the tea room. As soon as she put down her thermos cup, she noticed an extra bottle of milk on the table. She picked it up with a listless look, but she didn't want to drink it, nor did she want to give it to others, so she stuffed it in the drawer and let it mold and stink!

During lunch, Du Xiran went to heat up the food and happened to meet Mingshuang who was heating it up.

The two looked at each other and then looked away at the same time, as if they were strangers.

Du Xiran thought to himself, since Ye Nanning is not here, you won’t pretend to be a good person?

At this time, Ye Nanning also walked in with a lunch box.

Ming Shuang in front of her really showed a gentle smile, and greeted her by the way: "Xiao Ye, come quickly, President Du, what a coincidence."

Du Xiran: Hehehe.

Ye Nanning walked to their side and looked at Du Xiran with joy. Du Xiran smiled back: "I'm here."

Ye Nanning: “Yeah!”

When he turned back, Du Xiran's expressionless face returned to normal, and Ming Shuang happened to notice it, so he covered his mouth and smiled.

Du Xiran: “…”

During the meal, Ye Nanning returned to her seat and ate with Hu Jiaxu. After all, there were many people in the tea room, and someone might come to chat with her. She didn't want to deal with such a situation, so she tried to avoid it as much as possible.

Du Xiran had just found an empty seat in the tea room when Mingshuang sat down opposite her. She didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and she couldn't possibly shout to chase him away.

The two men opened their lunch boxes. The food inside was exactly the same, but their expressions were different.

Du Xiran looked at him indifferently, but Mingshuang was all smiles: "Boss Du, what do you think of the lunch box Xiaoye made?"

"Yeah, it's delicious." Although he said that, Du Xiran found today's meal tasteless. He didn't have the salivating feeling he usually had.

"I think it's delicious too. It would be great if I could always eat the lunch boxes made by Xiaoye." Mingshuang said with a smile.

Du Xiran did not answer.

Ming Shuang took a few bites, observed her expression, and asked in a low voice: "Boss Du, do you know that Xiao Ye has someone she likes?"

Du Xiran was startled, raised his eyes and looked at her: "What's wrong?"

"Do you know that person? Can you tell me what kind of person she is?" Mingshuang said, "I'm really curious, what kind of person will Xiaoye fall in love with?"

Du Xiran raised his chin slightly: "Go ask her yourself, I can't tell you these things."

"So you know that person." Mingshuang said.

Du Xiran was speechless.

Ming Shuang hesitated for a moment and asked indirectly: "Then tell me, is that person beautiful?"

Du Xiran raised his eyebrows and said honestly, "Beautiful."

"Have you any money?"

"good."

"High?"

"Um."

"Big breasts?"

"Cough, cough, cough..." Du Xiran quickly covered her mouth, and after a moment's rest, she looked at her gloomily, "You can even ask that?"

"Of course." Mingshuang laughed, put one hand to her mouth, and gossiped, "A good figure is very attractive, don't you think so?"

Du Xiran didn't want to discuss her figure anymore, nor did she want to be passive, so she asked, "What about you? What do you like about her?"

Ming Shuang began to count on her fingers: "She is beautiful, has a good figure, and looks cool and abstinent. She tickles my sexual quirks."

Du Xiran: "...Are you always so straightforward?"

Ming Shuang shrugged: "I'm always straightforward. I'll say what I like, and I'll let it go quickly if I don't like it anymore."

Du Xiran asked: "Do you just like her appearance?"

"Just her appearance is enough to make me excited, okay?" Mingshuang picked up the beef cubes from the lunch box and slowly put them into her mouth, smiling ambiguously, "Besides, she is also quite good inside, which arouses my desire for her."

Du Xiran: “…”

This person actually talked about these things openly in front of her!

Du Xiran: "Even if she already has someone she likes, will you still pursue her?"

Ming Shuang said indifferently: "Is there anything wrong with this? Does her liking that person have anything to do with my liking her? If they are in a relationship, then I definitely won't get entangled, but the key point is that the person doesn't like her."

"How do you know that I don't like it..." Du Xiran's voice became weaker as he spoke.

Ming Shuang raised the corner of her mouth: "If you like it, why is Xiaoye still single? Since you are single, then everyone is fair."

Du Xiran knew that what she said was right, and she had always hoped that someone better than her would appear and let Ye Nanning choose. But when that person really appeared, she inexplicably felt a sense of injustice in her heart, as if someone was trying to snatch something from her, even if the thing was not hers.

Mingshuang: "Boss Du, do you believe me?"

Du Xiran: "Why should I trust your mother?"

"......"

Ming Shuang laughed out loud: "I mean, trust me, I will be able to catch Xiao Ye in one month."

Du Xiran: "Are you so confident?"

"Of course." Mingshuang smiled confidently, "As long as the person she likes continues to be like that, my chances of winning are almost 99%."

Du Xiran snorted coldly, but felt in her heart that what she said was right. She was beautiful, had a good family background, and knew how to please women. In just a few days, she had already made Ye Nanning prepare lunch boxes for her for two days.

Ming Shuang's eyes flickered, and she suddenly asked, "Boss Du, you seem very unhappy now, why is that?"

"I'm very happy." Du Xiran said with a wry smile.

Ming Shuang lowered her head and smiled, saying, "You seem to be very hostile to me. Why? We don't have any disputes over work, right?"

"Where is the hostility towards you?" Du Xiran asked.

"My sixth sense is very accurate." Ming Shuang leaned closer and lowered her voice, "After I joined the company, my sixth sense told me two things. One is Ye Nanning, and the other... guess what it is?"

"Am I full and have nothing better to do than guess about you? I'm sorry, I'm not interested in your emotional problems at all. I'm full, enjoy your meal." Du Xiran picked up the lunch box and walked out, leaving Mingshuang sitting there. He watched her leave, looking back and forth between Du Xiran and Ye Nanning, and continued to eat with interest.

In the afternoon, when Xu Huan came to report on his work, he found that Du Xiran looked troubled and asked, "Boss Du, what's wrong with you? You seem very strange these past two days."

Du Xiran came back to his senses: "Is there?"

"Yes, it seems like he has something on his mind." Xu Huan said, "What happened?"

Du Xiran thought about it and waved his hand.

Xu Huan leaned closer to her out of curiosity, and heard her ask, "What do you think of Ming Shuang?"

Xu Huan looked at her in a mysterious way and whispered, "I'm just saying this because I think you're my own. I don't really like her. She looks arrogant and not approachable at all. I don't even want to bother with her."

"Isn't it?" Du Xiran seemed to have found an ally, "I also think she is a playboy."

"Yes, that's right. Those eyes are always looking around, always looking at our group. It's obvious that he's up to something."

Xu Huan became more and more excited as he spoke. He directly held her hand and kept talking like beans pouring out of a bamboo tube.

"Mr. Du, that PPT..." Ye Nanning saw this scene when she pushed open the door. Xu Huan and Du Xiran were holding hands, with excitement flashing on their faces, and their voices were very low.

Ye Nanning stood at the door in a daze, the light in her eyes quickly dimming as she stared at the two people's hands.

Du Xiran looked down and didn't think anything was wrong at first, but being stared at by her, she felt as if she was being caught. She pulled her hand back and said to Xu Huan in a calm manner, "Go back when you're done."

"Okay."

After Xu Huan left, Du Xiran coughed twice guiltily: "Is the PPT ready?"

"Well, I've sent it to you. I just came to ask if there's anything else that needs to be modified." Ye Nanning said.

"Oh, let me see..." Du Xiran held the mouse and just opened the PPT when a shadow appeared in front of his eyes.

She raised her head and looked at Ye Nanning, who looked at her aggrievedly: "You held hands with Sister Huan."

Du Xiran: "That's not holding hands, it's just shaking hands."

“Is there any difference?”

"......" Du Xiran tried to explain, "It was just a handshake between friends. There was no extra emotion involved. Don't think too much about it."

Ye Nanning: "Then you don't have any extra feelings for me, can I hold your hand?"

Du Xiran: “…” Is it possible?

Du Xiran thought it was funny, but saw Ye Nanning's eyes drooping, and he couldn't tell the emotion in his eyes. There was a sense of despair in his voice: "I know, Mr. Du, not only do you dislike me, you don't even want to be my friend. You can't even shake my hand..."

Du Xiran took a deep breath and stretched out his hand: "Handshake, shake, shake quickly."

When Ye Nanning's hand came close to hers, she even felt a slight tremor. Her heart skipped a beat, and she was worried that this guy would be depressed to the point of crying, so she leaned her head forward a little and observed the other person's expression.

The next moment, Ye Nanning raised her eyes and looked at her: "Boss Du, I like you so much, hehe!"

Du Xiran: “..........”

Look how happily this guy is smiling!
