Chapter 1130: Chapter 441: Fake Ling_4

It’s close to 12 noon.

Yao Lingling rubbed her wrist and stood up from her seat, about to ask Li Shumin to go eat together.

A voice suddenly rang out: ”Hello, good afternoon, Lingling.”

Yao Lingling turned around and saw Xiao Mingxuan, dressed in casual wear, walking over from the aisle.

”President Xiao, you’re a bit late today.”

Seeing the new look of Yao Lingling, Xiao Mingxuan was stunned, eyes wide open as he said, ”Whoa, Lingling, you’re...”

Yao Lingling’s face flushed slightly, and she playfully made a ”shh” gesture, ”Life’s tough, no need to expose. I’m just a show-off, haha.”

”Pff—” Xiao Mingxuan chuckled, remarking, ”I have to admit, Lingling, you’re indeed beautiful. I used to underestimate you.”

With a C-cup figure, Yao Lingling put on a tight T-shirt and jeans, fully showcasing the great shape she achieved through long-term exercise.

It truly amazed Xiao Mingxuan.

”Thanks for the compliment.” Yao Lingling grinned and made a fist-bow gesture, continuing, ”Well, Shumin and I are going to eat now, President Xiao, have you eaten yet?”

”Not yet. Let’s go together, I haven’t had knife-cut noodles in a long time.”

The three of them chatted and laughed as they went downstairs.

They arrived at the Jin Province Noodle Restaurant next to the Yuhua Business Building.

As someone with a Born to be fit physique, Yao Lingling had a great appetite and ordered a plate of stir-fried knife-cut noodles, plus two eggs, a sausage, and a portion of fish balls.

Watching Yao Lingling across from him eating noodles heartily, listening to her cheerful and lively voice.

Xiao Mingxuan’s face bore a smile, but a hint of concern flashed across his eyes.

After lunch, they leisurely returned to the bottom of the Yuhua Business Building.

Xiao Mingxuan suddenly stopped and said, ”Hey, Lingling, you shouldn’t be busy right now, right?”

Yao Lingling paused, nodded, and said, ”Hmm, nothing going on.”

”The weather is nice and cool today, how about we take a walk downstairs? I’d like to talk to you about next week’s fashion exhibition.”

”Oh, sure.”

Xiao Mingxuan smiled at Li Shumin and said, ”Shumin, you go ahead upstairs, let Manager Li know I’m already in the office. I’ll meet him for a meeting this afternoon.”

”Alrighty.” Li Shumin nodded, gave Yao Lingling a look, then turned and walked towards the office building.

...

The glass curtain wall of the office building reflected the somber, gloomy sky.

A breeze carrying a moist scent hit them.

”Yesterday, my father and I attended a meeting at the organizer’s office, where we heard that a board member from Meigou will personally attend this fashion exhibition...”

”Our exhibition area is inside the venue, we’ve already chosen our models...”

Xiao Mingxuan spoke of the exhibition’s trivial matters as he walked, his tone a bit low.

After they circled around the office building once.

Yao Lingling looked at him and asked, ”Did something happen? You seem a bit down.”

Xiao Mingxuan shook his head with a slight smile, suddenly asking, ”Lingling, what do you think of me?”

Hearing his question, Yao Lingling’s eyes flickered, smiling as she answered, ”Very nice! Your personality, character, and abilities are all great.”

”I think so too!” Xiao Mingxuan, one hand in his pocket, posed narcissistically.

Yao Lingling covered her mouth and laughed, ”The most important thing is, you are my boss, I wouldn’t dare talk bad about you.”

They joked and bantered for a while.

Xiao Mingxuan looked at her and said, full of admiration, ”When I first joined Shangya Clothing Design, you were the only one willing to help me, so patient. You really left a profound impression on me. I felt then, this girl is truly beautiful and kind-hearted.”

”Haha, thank you for the compliment, President Xiao!”

”Lingling, I want to ask you for a favor.”

”What favor? Go ahead.”

Xiao Mingxuan pretended to be indifferent as he smiled and said, ”My family is pressuring me to get married, and I don’t want to follow their arrangements, could you pretend to be my girlfriend?”

Yao Lingling was taken aback, and seriously shook her head, ”Sorry, I really can’t help with that.”

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Mingxuan shrugged and said, ”Alright, I was just asking casually, haha.”

Yao Lingling smiled, saying, ”Oh, lunch was too salty and spicy, I’m so thirsty now, I need to go back and drink some water.”

”Ok, let’s head back then.”

Watching Yao Lingling’s back, a complex expression appeared on Xiao Mingxuan’s face.

In fact, today’s conversation was just a test to gauge Yao Lingling’s thoughts.

Jiaxin Group is a shareholder, supplier, and client of Shangya, intertwined with too many interests.

If he wants to develop in his career and make Shangya bigger and stronger, he cannot completely get rid of Wen Qiuyue, that crazy woman.
