" I am just getting out of the company. I have nothing to do now," Ye Xiao Xiao says.
It is just some minutes past lunch time. And she has a lot of time for herself today.
On other days, she has always worried so much about her work. She would never leave before it was time to do so.
But today, it feels different. She does not know why she is no longer scared about losing her job.
She even thinks that she is somehow willing to leave it. She hates the idea of being looked down upon by the old man.
She knows that it is not right for her to leave the company. But there is nothing else she can do for now.
"Wow! What a coincidence!" Lin Mo says. "I am in the city. Have you had lunch already?"
It is not like he is in the city by coincidence. He came here with that purpose.
He was not very sure if he would get the chance to meet her. But things have turned out so simple for him.
"Nope, and I starving," Ye Xiao Xiao says like a small kid. "You should treat me to a good meal."
"Readily," Lin Mo replies. "I am sending you an address right away!"
"Okay, see you soon!" Ye Xiao Xiao replies cheerfully and hangs up.
But she fails to see Lu Min Chen who is just some distance from her. And she walks out of the company gate cheerfully.
Lu Min Chen plans on stopping her, but he receives a call.
He gives her one last look before picking up the call. He only realises that it is his grandfather calling when he hears his voice from the other side.
"Come to the lab," the old man says in a commanding tone.
"I am not in the office," Lu Min Chen replies. He wants to follow Ye Xiao Xiao. He wants to share lunch with her too.
"You are turning so daring young man," the old man says. "I can see you. Come back here!"
Lu Min Chen looks at the distance where Ye Xiao Xiao has already disappeared and sighs.
Angrily, he puts his phone back into his pockets and walks to the direction of lab.
Ye Xiao Xiao is going to meet Lin Mo. Even of he does not want to cause any other conflict between themselves, he wonders why she still agreed to join Lin Mo.
He wanted to harrass her just the other day. Isn't she afraid that he would repeat the same?
He finds himself getting mad again. She is only allowed to stare a meal with him, Lu Min Chen!
The first thought that came to his mind when he realised that she was going to meet Lin Mo was to join them.
He would be at ease if they all had a meal together. At least, Lin Mo would not attempt anything stupid.
But his grandfather has just spoiled his plan. And he cannot do anything apart from obeying him.
