Ye Xinghe put the chocolates in a paper bag and met up with Qiao Lin in the coffee shop on the first floor.

Since it was during working hours, the coffee shop wasn't very crowded. After ordering coffee for the whole group, she found a secluded corner to sit down.

Ye Xinghe took the box of chocolates that Qiao Lin had just bought and compared it with the box. The outer packaging and the inside were exactly the same, and there was no difference between them.

She handed the box that Su Nanqing had given her to Qiao Lin, saying, "Take this to the hospital and give it to my second brother so he can have it tested. Su Nanqing just gave it to me; she kept insisting I eat a piece. I suspect there's something wrong with this box of chocolates."

Qiao Lin's next move made Ye Xinghe feel that she hadn't given her a raise for nothing.

Qiao Lin held both boxes of chocolates in his hands and carefully inspected them inside and out. Finally, he said, "These two boxes are different not only in terms of production date, but also in terms of place of origin."

Ye Xinghe didn't notice the details on the bottom of the box. She picked up the box that Su Nanqing had given her and glanced at it. The place of origin was actually Siam!

Why is it that everything that happens after my rebirth is related to that place?!

Just in case, the two swapped the chocolate boxes and rearranged them.

Ye Xinghe instructed, "Qiao Lin, urge my second brother to hurry up. But don't say that I received it, otherwise he'll try to persuade me to quit again."

"If I'm not mistaken, Su Nanqing will try to persuade me to eat chocolate again later. I need to know what drug she gave me and what the consequences will be. I have to try my best to act convincingly and not let her find out."

Ye Xinghe returned to the company with the coffee in her hand.

Just as she reached her seat, before she could even sit down, Su Nanqing came out of the office. "Where have you been, Xinghe?"

"I'll treat the team members to coffee." Ye Xinghe put down the bag she was carrying and casually took out two cups. "I just happened to buy two extra cups. Sister Nanqing, would you prefer a latte or an Americano?"

“I’m fine with either one.” Su Nanqing casually picked up a glass. “The coffee shop downstairs offers delivery, so I don’t have to go down myself.”

With her back to her, Ye Xinghe secretly took the chocolate out of the coffee bag. "Yes, I only found out when I went to buy it this time."

"Sister Nanqing, wait a moment, I'll go and serve coffee to my colleagues first."

Ye Xinghe carried the coffee and walked to the back.

Su Nanqing sat at Hua Qingmeng's workstation, glanced at Ye Xinghe, and noticed that the chocolate was on the desk.

After distributing coffee to her team members, Ye Xinghe returned to her seat. "Sister Nan Qing, what did you want to see me about?"

"It's nothing. The chairman just finished a meeting with us, so I came out to chat with you and relax for a bit." Su Nanqing didn't mention the chocolate, afraid that constantly urging Ye Xinghe would be too obvious. "Oh, right, I just remembered something. Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and the company is going to purchase a batch of employee benefits. I was wondering what Ye's usually gives its employees?"

Ye Xinghe scratched his head. "I really haven't looked into that. Should I call my dad and ask?"

Su Nanqing pulled her to sit down. "No need for that. Why don't you come with me to take a look?"

"The main problem is that I'm not very familiar with Jiangyang. I need to order the employee welfare items today and distribute them to everyone before I leave work tomorrow."

Ye Xinghe had no desire to go out with her, so she pretended to be reluctant, "Sister Nanqing, it's not that I don't want to accompany you. I've taken several days off, and if I sneak out again, my team leader probably won't agree."

"It's alright, I'll go talk to the chairman." Su Nanqing leaned closer and said with a smile, "I see that everyone is not really focused on work, they're all waiting for the holiday!"

At this moment, Hua Qingmeng walked up to Ye Xinghe and said, "Go and inform the deputy group leaders of each group to ask a few boys to go downstairs to collect the Mid-Autumn Festival employee benefits."

These words made Su Nanqing's face instantly turn extremely awkward!

She originally planned to take Ye Xinghe out under the pretext of purchasing employee Mid-Autumn Festival benefits, and then tell her that the company headquarters had already ordered employee benefits for the branch office when it was almost time to leave work.

But to her surprise, the Mid-Autumn Festival benefits arrived so quickly.

Ye Xinghe didn't look at Su Nanqing's expression. She had already guessed what Su Nanqing's purpose was in asking her out, and there was no need to expose her now.

She responded and immediately went to notify the deputy group leaders.

Hua Qingmeng glanced at Su Nanqing, "Manager Su, what are you doing here?"

Su Nanqing waved the coffee in her hand. "It's nothing. Xinghe just bought some coffee and asked me to come over and chat."

Hua Qingmeng said casually, "Ye Xinghe is so free, it seems we should give her more work."

"A young girl who has just graduated is at the age where she loves to have fun, so it's okay for her to slack off a little. Besides, she's such a pretty girl, it's normal for her to have many suitors." Su Nanqing quickly covered her mouth, looking like she had said something wrong, "We weren't talking about these things just now."

Su Nanqing's purpose was not to let Hua Qingmeng know that Ye Xinghe was slacking off during work hours. What she wanted him to know was that Ye Xinghe was not a simple woman and had many suitors, which would create discord between them.

Hua Qingmeng looked down at her and said in a low voice, "When Ye Xinghe comes back, you two come to my office together."

When Ye Xinghe and Su Nanqing arrived at Hua Qingmeng's office, Lin Hao was also inside.

Hua Qingmeng was busy at her desk. "Let's have dinner together after get off work tonight. My older brother is in Jiangyang."

Su Nanqing's expression was a little stiff, and her tone was surprised, "Why does Yan Xi have time to come over? Isn't he very busy?"

"Is Xinghe going tonight too?"

Hua Qingmeng looked up at her in surprise, "Can't Ye Xinghe come along?"

"That's not what I meant." Su Nanqing's smile was forced. "It's not that I don't want Xinghe to go. I'm mainly worried that if other colleagues find out, they'll gossip and say that she got the job through connections."

Hua Qingmeng's tone was accusatory, "If only a few of us don't say anything, how will the others know?"

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Ye Xinghe stepped in to smooth things over, "If it's a dinner for leaders, then it's inconvenient for me to attend. But if it's a gathering of friends in Jiangyang, then I'll treat you to this meal."

Hua Qingmeng replied without hesitation, "Alright, you can invite them."

During her lunch break, Ye Xinghe received the test results for the chocolate from Qiao Lin.

"Chocolate contains THC, which is also known as alpha. It can be addictive and cause euphoria."

After reading it, Ye Xinghe was suddenly shocked!

Su Nanqing is truly vicious! She actually poisoned herself!!

This is not just a simple setup! If one becomes dependent on this substance, it will not only damage one's health and reputation, but it will also have a very negative impact on the entire Ye Group!
