Marriage of convenience blossoms into love; the husband turns out to be a billionaire CEO.
Chapter 9 What else would a woman be greedy for if not money?
The next morning, Ye Cheng got up before seven o'clock.
On her first day of work after moving here, Ye Cheng wanted to leave early to familiarize herself with the route and commute time.
She had worked in marketing planning for many years before switching jobs to Chuanggao Company two years ago.
After a quick wash, Ye Cheng went to the kitchen to make breakfast.
Ji Lingfeng also got up.
He has a habit of exercising every morning, without fail.
He has his own mountaintop villa with a swimming pool and a gym, but living there, he can only stare blankly and realize that he can't do anything about it.
Left with no other choice, I went back to my room and did two hundred push-ups.
I feel uneasy if I don't move my muscles and bones.
Ye Cheng quickly chopped the tomatoes and scallions, and then prepared a few eggs.
In no time, two large bowls of fragrant tomato and egg noodles were cooked.
She invited Ji Lingfeng to have breakfast.
Ji Lingfeng walked over, drawn by the aroma, glanced at the steaming noodles on the table, and instantly fell silent.
On the table, there were two gleaming stainless steel bowls used to hold the noodles!
It was that cheap stuff, it was so good it practically blinded him!
It makes people lose their appetite instantly.
Young Master Ji uses only top-grade imported porcelain; a single set of tableware costs hundreds of thousands!
"What's wrong? Don't you like noodles?"
Seeing the man's strange expression, Ye Cheng tilted her head and asked him.
Ji Lingfeng frowned and swallowed back all his words of disdain.
"You don't need to cook in such a big bowl anymore."
These are two huge bowls... no! Two huge basins! Are you sure this isn't pig feed?
One bowl is enough for two people.
No wonder her WeChat name was something like "foodie," she really can eat a lot!
"Oh, eating more for breakfast won't make you fat. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and a full breakfast can improve your work efficiency."
As Ye Cheng spoke, she sat down in front of her bowl and began to eat by herself, slurping away.
Ji Lingfeng also sat down at the table, but he had no appetite for the bowl of noodles in front of him.
He picked up his chopsticks, barely managed to pick up two noodles, and took a small bite.
Fortunately, it wasn't too salty or bland, and the taste was pretty good.
Ye Cheng ate very quickly; half of the noodles buried in the bowl disappeared in no time.
Looking up at Ji Lingfeng again, the man sat upright at the table, picking at noodles, which seemed extremely out of place with the bowl of noodles.
Are handsome men particularly picky eaters?
She raised an eyebrow and said:
"Mr. Ji, please make do with this today. Don't worry, I'm quite skilled in cooking. You won't regret having me as your cooking partner."
Ji Lingfeng mumbled a response while eating his noodles.
His hilltop villa has top chefs and nutritionists, and his breakfasts are carefully prepared every day.
Exquisite, delicious, nutritious, and even calorie counted.
Unfortunately, he himself wants to hide his identity now. Since he wants to play the role of an ordinary working person, he can't have too high expectations. He can't just contradict himself.
Ye Cheng glanced at Ji Lingfeng and then said:
"You haven't moved into this house yet, have you? There are no pots, pans, or anything in the kitchen. I just bought a few things at the supermarket in the neighborhood yesterday to tide me over, and I ordered the rest of the kitchenware online."
"Yes, I usually live in the company dormitory."
Ji Lingfeng spoke casually, paused, and then added:
"Send me your account details later, and I'll transfer the money to you."
Ye Cheng paused for a moment, then grinned and said:
"No need. I didn't pay a penny for the house. Even if we shared the place, I would still have to pay rent. Besides, the kitchenware wouldn't cost much."
This small amount of money is nothing to worry about, so of course I can't let him make up for it, lest people misunderstand that she's greedy for small gains.
Ji Lingfeng didn't insist after hearing that.
This woman was incredibly aggressive in the coffee shop, constantly arguing with people and throwing coffee at them; she's quite the actress now.
I'm afraid she's gotten some information from her grandfather and is now playing the role of a good woman who doesn't worship money.
There are many women eyeing him covetously, even his assistants are vying for the position of president's wife.
Every day, they're either jealous of each other or scheming to seduce him. Now, he's replaced all the employees in the president's office with men.
What else can a woman be greedy for if not money? Making pancakes, perhaps?
“I will transfer living expenses to you at the end of each month after I receive my salary.”
Ji Lingfeng continued calmly.
Ye Cheng silently agreed and buried the noodles in the basin to continue drying.
She wouldn't mind splitting the bill, but since her grandfather said he works for a big company, he must be quite capable, and men care about saving face.
Suddenly remembering something, she looked up, blinked, and said:
"By the way, don't blame me for meddling, but you said you bought this house with a friend and haven't transferred the title yet. I've seen a lot of people online who delayed the transfer to save on taxes, only to end up losing both the house and their money. It's better to be careful."
Ji Lingfeng listened silently without saying a word, staring in astonishment at the woman opposite him who was now naked.
Ye Cheng was rushing to work, so she left with her bag slung over her shoulder.
Ji Lingfeng only ate a small portion of his noodles, then poured the rest into the toilet.
He picked up his phone and called Kim Dae-woo.
"President Ji, the convoy is waiting to the left of the main gate of Jingtai Garden."
"I'll be there in ten minutes."
Ji Lingfeng waited until Ye Cheng had walked far away before leaving the house.
Today, a black BYD was added to the rear of the convoy; it was bought by Kim Dae-woo yesterday.
Ji Lingfeng glanced at the Rolls-Royce and got in.
In the car, Jin Dayu asked, "President Ji, what are your plans for using this BYD? I'll make the arrangements."
Ji Lingfeng said calmly, "I'll drive it from now on."
Kim Dae-woo was a little taken aback: "Then we..."
"Just follow along."
Jin Dayu immediately fell silent. His master was always a man of his word and never offered explanations, so he dared not ask any more questions.
……
Ye Cheng left home early today, arriving at the company at 8:40.
There were only a few people in the office, all engrossed in eating their breakfast.
Ye Cheng had just sat down at her workstation when a head popped up next to her.
She is a close colleague.
Hua Zhixin is in charge of public relations and marketing. She and Hua Zhixin joined the company around the same time and often ate together. Over time, they became good friends.
Hua Zhixin lowered her voice and asked:
"Orange, I didn't dare bother you about what happened yesterday because I was afraid it would upset you."
After saying that, he added angrily:
"That woman surnamed Tian is really stirring up trouble. You're just unlucky to have run into her. Now everyone in the company knows you were jilted, and everyone's watching the drama unfold!"
Ye Cheng forced an exaggerated smile:
"It's nothing, I just lost a mama's boy scumbag, I'm so lucky, aren't you going to congratulate me?"
Hua Zhixin nodded heavily: "Yeah! Come to think of it, there's nothing to regret about a scumbag!"
"What I regret is that I wasted two months on that jerk."
Ye Cheng yawned and stretched.
I didn't sleep well last night.
"Let's not talk about that jerk anymore, it'll ruin my mood. By the way, Orange, I have something to tell you."
Hua Zhixin leaned close to Ye Cheng's ear, looking mysterious:
“I recently joined a dating and matchmaking group. I heard it's full of handsome, high-quality men. The group often hosts parties to help people find love. Let's go together next time there’s an event.”
Hua Zhixin is 25 years old this year. She has an oval face, big eyes, and a pretty face. She looks good first when looking for a boyfriend. Recently, she broke up with her handsome boyfriend because of personality clashes.
If it were like when she was single, Ye Cheng would agree without hesitation.
But as of yesterday, she is already a married woman.
