62: Chapter 62 Bai Feng's First Appearance

Lin Xiaojin, who had been lovey-dovey with Qin Ge in the Rolls-Royce, rushed to her workstation the moment she returned to the company.

She was eager to make up for the work progress she had fallen behind on all at once.

According to Qin Ge, if Lin Xiaojin weren't a Daughter of Destiny, she would certainly have been a qualified top-tier corporate slave!

"Xiao Jin, how is it that the necklace around your neck looks so much like that ocean heart?"

Gao Ting, sitting at the adjacent workstation, stared at the dark green pendant hanging around Lin Xiaojin's neck and asked in confusion, "Did that mysterious person send you another new gift?"

Lin Xiaojin shook her head vigorously. "That's not it!"

She blushed and said with some embarrassment, "It's a gift from President Qin."

Gao Ting's heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously asked, "Then what about the ocean heart?"

Lin Xiaojin said calmly, "I gave it to President Qin."

Slap—

Gao Ting slapped her thigh in frustration at her inability to live up to expectations.

She said regretfully, "That is jewelry worth over a hundred million! Do you know what a hundred million means to ordinary people like us?"

That was top-tier jewelry that sold for an astronomical price at an auction.

Lin Xiaojin just gave it to Qin Ge just like that?

Even without relying on a wealthy man, Lin Xiaojin could have lived a carefree life forever just by relying on that ocean heart!

In her eyes, Lin Xiaojin, who handed the ocean heart to Qin Ge, wasn't just foolish; she was stupid.

And the kind of stupid that had no bounds!

"I prefer this necklace."

Lin Xiaojin shook her head, emphasizing.

Her view was completely different from Gao Ting's.

In her opinion, a gift is about the sentiment, not the value.

The necklace Qin Ge gave her was his gesture of affection.

It didn't matter how expensive it was.

This was the first gift Qin Ge had ever given her!

To her, it was extraordinarily meaningful.

No amount of ocean hearts could compare to it.

She would cherish this necklace forever!

Just then, a graceful and beautiful figure walked into Qin Ge's office within the Operations and Maintenance Area.

She soon walked back out, a look of disappointment in her beautiful eyes.

Lin Xiaojin looked at the curvaceous Bai Jing, felt a sense of crisis in her heart, looked at Gao Ting, and asked curiously, "Who is that beauty?"

Gao Ting sneered, "Bai Jing, the new secretary of the board, a graduate of a top foreign university."

She sighed and shook her head, "Lin Xiaojin, do you not even understand such a simple principle? Don't put all your eggs in one basket."

"So what if you are devoted to President Qin?"

"The top-tier beauties around President Qin are endless; sooner or later, there will come a day when you fall out of favor!"

Lin Xiaojin didn't take the previous words to heart.

But the words "fall out of favor" made her heart skip a beat.

She stared at the graceful Bai Jing, especially at her chest, for a full half-minute.

Then she looked down at her own slightly raised curves.

In comparison,

for some reason, an unspeakable bitterness arose in her heart.

After chatting with Gao Ting for a few moments,

Lin Xiaojin saw that no one was around, opened a new web page, and searched with great urgency, "What should I eat to promote secondary development?"

...

On the other side, at the Cloud Edge Coffee Shop.

By the window, Ning Ke'er sat on a rattan chair, her light purple dress glowing with a soft luster under the sunlight streaming through the window.

She lowered her head, holding a cup of warm coffee in her hands.

Her bright, gentle eyes were fixed intently on the coffee in her hands, looking straight ahead, exceptionally quiet.

It was unknown how much time had passed before Ning Ke'er slowly lifted her fair face.

Looking at Mu Xinyi in front of her, her delicate lips parted slightly in curiosity.

After hesitating for a while, Ning Ke'er still didn't take the initiative to speak.

Gulp!

Mu Xinyi, sitting opposite her, embarrassedly swallowed her saliva, mentally greeting Qin Ge a hundred and eighty times.

This guy!

Does he have no concept of time?

She had gone to great lengths to invite Keer to this coffee shop, yet they had been sitting for nearly two hours, and Qin Ge still hadn't arrived?

Only Ning Ke'er could endure this endless silence.

If it were her, she would have long since packed up and left!

"Keer?"

While Mu Xinyi was irritated, a man with a resolute face slowly walked over from not far away.

Seeing this person, Mu Xinyi raised an eyebrow, and her heart skipped a beat.

Bai Feng?

How could it be this guy?

She hadn't waited for Qin Ge, but had waited for the Bai Feng who had sent Chen Yuan flying with a single punch?

Mu Xinyi subconsciously looked at Ning Ke'er, only to find that Ning Ke'er seemed not to have heard, still looking down, staring at her coffee.

"Keer, I'm Bai Feng! Don't you remember me?"

Bai Feng looked at Ning Ke'er in front of him, introducing himself eagerly.

Upon hearing the name Bai Feng.

Ning Ke'er's hands trembled involuntarily; like the ripples in the cup of coffee, Ning Ke'er's calm, stagnant state of mind was stirred into waves.

She didn't look at Bai Feng but looked at Mu Xinyi opposite her, saying with fear in her voice, "Can we leave here?"

Mu Xinyi raised her eyes and said to Bai Feng with dissatisfaction, "Could you please leave? My friend really doesn't like you staying by her side."

Bai Feng knitted his brows, looked at the baby-faced Mu Xinyi, forcibly swallowed the foul air in his heart, and said in a deep voice, "Keer and I are childhood sweethearts!"

Mu Xinyi shook her head, "I don't care who you are, nor do I care what kind of friendship you and Keer had when you were children; right now, Keer is very scared, can't you see that?"

Bai Feng stared at the quiet beauty sitting on the rattan chair who still hadn't looked at him, clenched his fists, and said unwillingly, "Keer, back then, you were the only one who stood up for me!"

"I will never forget this kindness."

"This time, I have returned to make a clean break with everything from the past!"

"..."

Bai Feng was still talking,

but Ning Ke'er covered her ears with her hands, unwilling to listen any further.

Mu Xinyi said, driving him away, "Bai Feng, that's enough!"

"If you really want what's best for Keer, you shouldn't continue to make things difficult for her at this time!"

Bai Feng looked at the Ning Ke'er who had been very close to him when they were children, not knowing what had happened to Ning Ke'er over the years.

He only knew that when the Bai family chose to abandon him, only Ning Ke'er had stood up and spoken for him.

It was Ning Ke'er who made him feel a sense of warmth during his most helpless moments!

But the current Ning Ke'er seemed to reject him very much?

Bai Feng was confused, but he didn't say anything more.

If he continued to stay, not only would it be difficult for Ning Ke'er, but even Mu Xinyi would feel disgust toward him.

Bai Feng left, looking back every few steps.

His gaze went from staring only at Ning Ke'er at the beginning, to scanning back and forth between Ning Ke'er and Mu Xinyi before finally leaving.

Until Bai Feng had walked far away, Ning Ke'er finally lifted her eyes, looked at Mu Xinyi with a painful expression, and asked, "Can we leave here?"

Mu Xinyi felt that encountering Bai Feng was already unexpected, and she was just about to nod in agreement.

But she saw the familiar figure of Qin Ge appearing at the entrance of the coffee shop.

She gritted her teeth and made an excuse, "My stomach hurts, I'm going to the restroom; Keer, wait for me for a moment."

She secretly thought that she had already created the opportunity.

However, with Qin Ge arriving late, the outcome wouldn't be much better.

Ning Ke'er wouldn't even look at her childhood sweetheart Bai Feng for even a glance.

Let alone Qin Ge, who was just trying to hit on her?
