Chapter 2509: Chapter 2509: Meimei Was Taken Away!
Jin Chenye’s gentle eyes steadily looked at her, as if trying to see into her heart through her face.
"...Thinking about Meimei. It’s her first time leaving me since she grew up, and I worry she won’t get used to it." Ye Mingmei lowered her eyes, looking at her palm, feeling somewhat at a loss.
She had always thought it was Meimei who depended on her, but only today did she realize that she depended on her daughter.
Without Meimei by her side, she couldn’t control her thoughts, constantly thinking about everything related to Yu Xiuzhun. All the memories converged in an instant, and she couldn’t concentrate on anything.
"I’ve already called to check. Meimei slept well yesterday and went to kindergarten with Tingye and the others this morning. She should be in class by now."
Knowing she was worried about her daughter, Jin Chenye’s expression softened a bit. He closed the proposal, stood up from his chair.
"You’re not in the right state to handle work now. You should take a break. Is there any particular place you’d like to visit? I can accompany you for a stroll to clear your mind."
"No need, I’m fine. These contracts need to be finalized today. I’ve already reviewed the cooperation case with MC Group. If you, Senior, think there’s no issue, I’ll send it to the secretary’s office later for backup. You go ahead if you have something to do."
Ye Mingmei forced a smile, nonchalantly responding.
Jin Chenye, seeing her forced smile, didn’t call her out, knowing she didn’t want to discuss it. He nodded lightly and turned to leave.
"Miss, there’s a visitor wanting to see you." As Jin Chenye left, the secretary entered the office and said respectfully.
"Who?"
Ye Mingmei was slightly taken aback and looked at the schedule for today with some surprise, "I don’t remember having any appointments with business partners today."
"It’s not work-related, it’s personal. Mr. Bai is here to see you, saying it’s about a private dinner he arranged with you earlier."
"Bai Zheng..." Ye Mingmei bit her lip, her eyes flickering.
Is he here to ask for her opinion again?
But she had already told him everything she could think of last time, and she really wasn’t in the mood to think about someone else’s proposal ceremony now.
Ye Mingmei raised her head, about to tell the secretary she wasn’t feeling well, when she saw Bai Zheng’s handsome figure already at her office door.
"Did I come at a bad time? Is Miss Ye busy?"
Bai Zheng’s charming face bore a slight smile, and his face, as alluring as peach blossoms, exuded an enchanting and unmatched elegance with every gesture.
He walked in unhurriedly, and the atmosphere in the office seemed to drop.
He approached Ye Mingmei’s desk, with a slight curl at the corner of his lips.
"I just saw Mr. Jin heading downstairs. I thought Miss Ye had finished her work, so I came uninvited."
"How do you know Senior just left? Are you having someone watch me?" Ye Mingmei frowned, instinctively glancing around.
"Miss Ye, you overthink. I merely wanted to ask for your help and was worried about interrupting your work, so I waited at the café opposite the Ye Group until you finished work and accidentally saw Mr. Jin leave."
Bai Zheng spoke casually, but when mentioning Jin Chenye, a barely noticeable dark glint flashed in his eyes.
Ye Mingmei was about to say something when her phone on the table rang.
Seeing it was a call from Qin Youxuan, she hurriedly picked it up.
"Sis..."
"Mingmei, where are you now? I’ll send someone to get you! Meimei was kidnapped shortly after leaving kindergarten, and I’m worried you might be in danger too!"
