No one knew why, but the moment Kevin finished speaking, the whole office suddenly became chilly, as if the air conditioner was suddenly put on full blast. As the two of them stood in a brief moment of cold silence, Ning Ruxing shook her head. She had already promised Jin Yebei she would eat in the office today, so of course she couldn’t leave. She could only express her apology to Kevin.

“I’m afraid not. I’ll go with you next time!”

Kevin didn’t think so much about it. He wouldn’t have thought that the chairman would let Ning Ruxing stay in the office to eat with him. This was simply impossible in Kevin’s eyes. Perhaps Ning Ruxing’s work wasn’t finished? “But you can’t not go down for lunch,” said Kevin. Besides, the Chairman was having lunch now, so it wasn’t good for Ning Ruxing to stay there.

“Then what are you having for lunch? You can’t go hungry, can you?”

Hearing this, Ning Ruxing felt a little embarrassed. This was only her first day at work. Was she going to tell others that she was going to eat with the Chairman in the office? If word got out, people would definitely overthink it. Ning Ruxing didn’t know how to answer for a moment. Then, Jin Yebei coldly said, “Kevin, are you done with your work?”

Kevin shivered. He wanted to continue talking to Ning Ruxing by taking the opportunity of lunchtime to sit and chat with her. But now that the Chairman has asked that question, Kevin immediately said, “Not yet, Chairman!”

Jin Yebei looked at Kevin. How could he not know what was on Kevin’s mind? But this woman can only belong to Jin Yebei. No one could have any ideas about her. Still, Jin Yebei could not be too obvious now. Thankfully, he could also see that Ning Ruxing did not know how to respond to Kevin. Jin Yebei said, “Since you haven’t, why are you still in the mood to chat?”

Kevin immediately shut his mouth. After setting the dishes on the table, he immediately turned around and left. Kevin didn’t want to be reprimanded by the Chairman for such a small matter. Once Kevin had left, Jin Yebei stood up and looked at Ning Ruxing, who had returned to her desk. He smiled and said, “Wash your hands and get ready to eat.”

Ning Ruxing eventually took a seat at the pop-up table. She didn’t know why, but even though this was the first time she was sitting face-to-face with Jin Yebei, she felt a sense of familiarity with him. It was the kind of familiarity that felt as if she had known him for a long time. However, this wasn’t important now. The most important thing right now was to eat. There were so many dishes on the table that they might not be able to finish them even if they ate together.

Even when eating, Jin Yebei was very elegant. First, he cut the steak into small pieces, then slowly put it into his mouth, chewing and swallowing slowly. Ning Ruxing had no choice but to slow down her eating speed and eat more gracefully. Jin Yebei looked at Ning Ruxing and casually asked,”It’s the weekend tomorrow. Do you have any plans?”

Ning Ruxing swallowed the food in her mouth. She had been busy with other things in the past weekends, so this weekend, she was going to go to the zoo. She had finally found a snake that looked like the one she had been looking for but she couldn’t tell from photos. She had to go see it in person. Ning Ruxing was not going to give up so easily.

“I’m planning to go to the zoo to see if that snake is the one that saved me!”

Hearing this, Jin Yebei smiled. He picked up his fork and knife to continue eating his steak. He didn’t expect her to still be looking for him all these years. But that black snake was just too ugly. He didn’t know if she would be able to ‘recognize’ it. Jin Yebei finished cutting a few more pieces of his steak and said,”It’s been so many years. Can you really still recognize it?”

Ning Ruxing laughed when she heard this. Ever since she was a child, she had a photographic memory. Besides, the snake had saved her life and they had lived together for half a month. Ning Ruxing could remember the snake’s eyes, scales, and patterns as if she saw it just yesterday.

“I can recognize it and I won’t be wrong!”

Jin Yebei was stunned for a moment, but he quickly thought, ‘It’s better to go with her. If she mistook me for someone else, at least I can stop her in time. Since she still remembers her promise to be my wife, I don’t want her to mistake me for someone else, especially that ugly snake.’

“Shall we go together this weekend?”
