Chapter 116: Surprise
Fang Xiaonuan thought that as long as she moved fast enough, Ji Lingchen would not know how she got up.
However, as soon as the CEO’s private elevator started running, the surveillance footage in the elevator would be displayed on Ji Lingchen’s phone screen in real-time.
The man saw his wife’s figure appear on the phone screen, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
The assistant noticed the CEO’s expression and asked, “CEO Ji, what did you see? Why are you in such a good mood?”
Ji Lingchen said, “Look at the kitten.”
The assistant did not understand what the CEO was talking about.
Ji Lingchen waved his hand and told the assistant to leave the office. Then, he leaned back in his chair and could not help but laugh. It seemed that his little kitten missed him!
He deliberately zoomed in on the surveillance footage and carefully looked at his little wife’s expression.
In the elevator, Fang Xiaonuan nervously stared at the elevator numbers that were lighting up in succession. She sighed and muttered to herself gloomily, “If my husband asks why I’m here later, how should I answer him?”
“He won’t be so narcissistic to think that I can’t even eat without him, right?”
“I wonder what Ji Lingchen is doing right now. I didn’t even call him to tell him that I was coming. Isn’t that bad?”
“What if he’s in a meeting right now?”
“What if he has a client in his office?”
“It’s so annoying! I’m just here to deliver food. Why do I feel so conflicted?”
In his office, Ji Lingchen had turned the volume of the surveillance app to the maximum when his little wife started talking. The smile on his face grew wider and wider. His little wife had actually brought him food and was still letting her imagination run wild. How adorable!
Ji Lingchen’s current mood could no longer be described as good. His current level of happiness would not waver. Even if someone suddenly told him that the Ji Corporation had gone bankrupt, it would not affect his current mood. In fact, he might even reply with a smile, “It’s just bankruptcy. It doesn’t matter!”
Ding! The elevator arrived.
Fang Xiaonuan looked at the floor. She had really arrived. She tiptoed out of the elevator. The surrounding employees looked at her in shock. Fang Xiaonuan was stunned. Why are these people looking at me?
“Madam?” Suddenly, someone recognized her and called out tentatively.
Fang Xiaonuan quickly made a silent gesture and replied softly, “Shh… be quiet.”
She did not want to alarm Ji Lingchen right now, or else he would know that she had taken his exclusive elevator.
The people in the CEO’s office hurriedly shut their mouths, not even daring to breathe loudly. When everyone saw the bag in Fang Xiaonuan’s hand, they all understood that CEO Ji’s wife definitely wanted to give him a surprise.
The secretaries all nodded, indicating that they would cooperate with her and not spoil the surprise.
Fang Xiaonuan quietly walked to her husband’s office and gently knocked on the door.
“Come in!” A man’s clear voice came from the door, and there was a hint of anticipation and joy in his voice.
Fang Xiaonuan quickly pushed open the office door and poked her head in. She smiled and said, “Hello, husband.”
The man sat calmly in the boss’s chair. When he heard the voice, he immediately stood up to welcome her. He pretended not to know anything and asked, “Why are you here? Did you sleep well?”
Only then did Fang Xiaonuan carry the bag into the office and close the door.
The secretaries outside the room were already bursting with curiosity, and they started discussing among themselves.
“Why do I feel that the madam is especially gentle today?”
“Yeah, I think so too. Last time, she came over to scold the CEO and scared me. I keep feeling that if I hear one more word, I’ll be executed!”
“Could it be that Madam is here to apologize this time? She even brought a surprise, and her tone sounded like she was trying to curry favor.”
“Come to think of it, it’s really possible…”
The discussions outside continued, but the atmosphere inside was unusually sweet.
Fang Xiaonuan sat on the sofa and took out the food in the bag like it was a treasure, placing them on the table one by one.
“Hubby, the butler told me that you came to work without eating. I thought, since I want to eat anyway, I might as well pack the food so that we can eat together. You’re not upset, right?”
Ji Lingchen helped to open the lid of the lunch box and replied, “Why would I be?”
Fang Xiaonuan said, “So you’re not upset!!”
Ji Lingchen asked, “But how did you get up here?”
Hearing this, Fang Xiaonuan was stunned for a moment before she replied guiltily, “I, I squeezed into the elevator with the employees. There were so many people.”
Ji Lingchen smiled at her. “Then you should have arrived up here long ago, right?”
