Marriage of convenience blossoms into love; the husband turns out to be a billionaire CEO.

Good evening! Let's see how everyone's eating is going!

Yao Qingqing was wearing a pale yellow Chanel suit and had exquisite makeup on. Her pleasant fragrance wafted over even before she arrived.

The women rushed to flatter him again.

"President Yao, you're late! You must have been on a date with President Qin!"

"Needless to say, look at President Yao, he's all smiles, he's probably enjoying some alone time with his girlfriend, why should we interfere!"

"President Yao, where is President Qin? Didn't he come with you?"

Yao Qingqing jokingly said with a smile:

"Old Qin's busy, and we're an old married couple, who wants to spend some time alone with him! It's better to find a young, handsome guy to chat and have a drink with!"

Everyone laughed.

Yao Qingqing's eyes flickered, and after glancing around, her gaze fell on Ye Cheng.

"Ye Cheng, I heard you recently got married in a flash? Why hasn't your husband come?"

Ye Cheng replied, "Yes, he's still busy at the company. He said he'd be there later, but it looks like he probably can't get away."

Yao Qingqing chuckled:

"I overheard someone gossiping the other day that a woman in our company, who was older and more single, got dumped by her fiancé but then quickly married a handsome guy. I'm quite curious, how did you two meet?"

Ye Cheng smiled faintly and said, "I don't actually know him. I know his grandfather, and that's how he brought us together."

Yao Qingqing gave a thumbs-up and praised:

"Ye Cheng, you're really brave! You got married in a flash without even knowing him. This man must be very attractive!"

Ye Cheng laughed and said, "There are quite a few whirlwind marriages these days, they're just making do with each other."

Tian Yawen, who was standing to the side, couldn't hold back any longer and interrupted with ill intent:

"Mr. Yao, didn't your driver, Xiao Wang, recently resign? You can have Ye Cheng's husband come to the company for an interview."

Yao Qingqing looked at Tian Yawen with a puzzled expression.

Tian Yawen said with a forced smile:

"Ye Cheng's husband got laid off, and I heard he's looking for a job, right, Ye Cheng?"

Before Ye Cheng could answer, she interrupted again:

"I just thought that Xiao Wang had just resigned, so I took this opportunity to give him a heads-up."

This person is someone who pretends to be a good person on the surface, but actually belittles and tramples on others.

The implication is that she assumes the other woman's husband is only fit to be a driver.

Those watching the spectacle all turned their attention to Ye Cheng.

Ye Cheng didn't refute, and answered calmly, "Yes."

Yao Qingqing thought for a moment, then nodded and said:

"Ye Cheng, if your husband doesn't mind, he can come for an interview. Everyone knows that my driver's salary is quite high. If you add overtime pay, the monthly take-home pay is more than that of a white-collar worker. It's just a bit busy."

Being Yao Qingqing's driver means being available at any time, and working overtime is a common occurrence.

Tian Yawen echoed:

"That's right. There are a lot of people unemployed now. Some jobs are gone and they don't even get paid. Being a driver may not sound good, but if you work with Boss Yao, your job is definitely secure."

The woman finished speaking and chuckled smugly, anticipating Ye Cheng's sour face.

Everyone waited expectantly to see how Ye Cheng would respond to Tian Yawen.

To everyone's surprise, Ye Cheng didn't even glance at the woman, and calmly nodded to Yao Qingqing, saying:

"Okay, thank you in advance, Mr. Yao. I'll ask him when I get back."

Everyone was surprised, even Tian Yawen was stunned for a moment.

Ye Cheng didn't feel ashamed of being a driver at all. It was a perfectly respectable job, where you earn your wages through your own labor.

Although she and Ji Lingfeng had a whirlwind marriage, they were not actually husband and wife, and it was inconvenient to delve into many things.

She knew nothing about Ji Lingfeng's educational background, his job, or his work abilities.

However, if you are laid off by the company, it probably wasn't in a core position.

If there aren't any other good job opportunities available in the short term, being a driver is a good option.

As the dinner party drew to a close, Ji Lingfeng was still nowhere to be seen.

Ye Cheng looked at her phone, hesitating whether to send a message to ask.

Hua Zhixin ate her ice cream while urging Ye Cheng to hurry up.

"Orange, why don't you give him a call and ask? If he's almost done with his work, it would be great if he could come pick us up and take us home. I could hitch a ride and meet your husband. Call him now!"

Ye Cheng couldn't refuse Hua Zhixin's request, so she dialed Ji Lingfeng's number.

The phone rang a few times before being answered.

Ye Cheng asked, "Are you done with your work? Our get-together is almost over."

Ji Lingfeng replied on the other end of the phone, "Almost there."

Ye Cheng paused for a moment, then asked, "Then... would it be convenient for you to come and pick me up?"

Fearing that Ji Lingfeng would refuse, she added:

"It's not convenient, but actually you're my colleague and good friend. I really want to get to know you and just wanted to hitch a ride."

There was silence on the other end of the phone for two seconds.

Then came the man's calm voice: "Meet me at the hotel entrance in fifteen minutes."

After hanging up the phone, Hua Zhixin asked anxiously, "So, are you coming?"

Ye Cheng nodded: "He said he'd be there in fifteen minutes."

Hua Zhixin said with a smile, "That's great, then he's not far from here."

After a satisfying meal, everyone walked out of the hotel lobby.

"Ye Cheng, Hua Zhixin, would you like to ride in our car?" Wang Yu asked Ye Cheng kindly.

"No need, my husband is almost done with his work and is coming to pick us up now," Ye Cheng replied.

"Oh really!" Wang Yu blinked her gossipy eyes.

"Then let's meet your husband and get to know him."

"Okay," Ye Cheng readily agreed.

Upon hearing this, colleagues at the front and back all slowed down their pace.

In the past, everyone would have said a polite goodbye and then gone home.

Upon hearing that Ye Cheng's husband was coming to pick her up, apart from a few older couples who left first, the rest of them lingered at the hotel entrance, chatting idly.

It wasn't that Ye Cheng's husband was particularly attractive to them, but rather they were curious about what kind of man this older single woman in the company had whirlwind marriage with after being jilted.

Firstly, it's driven by a gossipy nature, and secondly, people like to watch the excitement during their leisure time.

Tian Yawen instructed Huang Junying to bring the car over. Turning her head, she saw Wang Yu, Ye Cheng, and Hua Zhixin standing together, chatting as they waited.

She gave Chen Qianru a look, and the two of them stood next to Ye Cheng, deliberately making conversation.

"Qianru, your gossipy mouth is making someone's husband afraid to come to dinner!"

Tian Yawen pretended to blame her friend.

"What does it have to do with me? If I had a tall and handsome husband, I'd walk around like a madman! I'm just afraid of being humiliated!"

Chen Qianru grinned dismissively.

Tian Yawen covered her mouth and laughed:

"Your mention reminds me of that handsome guy with the mask you talked about the other day, haha. But you have to take off your mask to eat, and if you do, it'll really be embarrassing. I'd rather not eat this free dinner!"

Chen Qianru said with a smug look:

"That's right, now you can at least be a decent masked handsome guy when you go out."

Ye Cheng frowned as she listened.

These two women, singing in unison, are truly disgusting.

She really wished Ji Lingfeng would appear right now and slap them both in the face, shutting these two women up.

Ye Cheng looked up and saw Ji Lingfeng's figure in the distance.

Ji Lingfeng got out of the car in the parking lot, wearing the suit Ye Cheng had bought for him yesterday.

It must be said that her figure and face are truly pleasing to the eye.

Ye Cheng was delighted, waved to him, and turned around to tug at Hua Zhixin.

Hua Zhixin and Wang Yu were having a great time talking about a very popular TV series.

The two were arguing about who was more handsome, the male lead or the second male lead, and they were getting quite red in the face.

"I just love watching the male lead. As soon as the second male lead appears, I can't help but fast forward twice!"

Hua Zhixin finally shut up with a resolute tone, turning her head to ask:

"What's wrong, Ye Cheng? Has your husband arrived? Where is he?"

"Ah."

Ye Cheng nodded and turned to point in the direction of the parking lot.

At the same time, she was completely stunned.

Ji Lingfeng, who was striding towards her, suddenly had a medical mask on his face.
