Chapter 54
"Junwen, you also got your diploma from S University. After the National Day holiday ends, go get some experience at the Group. Learn more from Jinchen and don't lose face." Old Master Ye said lightly to his youngest son.
This son had caused him quite a bit of worry. Although he was only one year older than Ye Jinchen, Ye Junwen was far inferior to Ye Jinchen in both academics and business acumen.
His eldest son Ye Junli had perfectly inherited his business mind, so Old Master Ye handed control of the Group to him early on. He originally thought that if Jinchen's abilities were insufficient to inherit the Group, he could hand it over to his younger son. But later he realized he was wishful thinking - his younger son was the incompetent one.
So he directly chose Ye Jinchen as the Group's heir apparent, who had already started taking over the company. Old Master knew his younger son was unhappy about it, but there was no other way. He planned to get Ye Junwen an executive position in the company along with some shares to guarantee his younger son's prosperous future.
Upon hearing his father's words, Ye Junwen's eyes flashed behind his gold-rimmed glasses and he said mildly, "Don't worry Dad, I will definitely work hard under Jinchen and not disappoint you."
Hearing his son say this, Old Master felt relieved and praised, "Very good, as long as you have this attitude."
He then shifted his gaze to Ye Jinchen, "Jinchen, at the company later, help your uncle more and be patient in teaching him what he doesn't understand."
Ye Jinchen nodded, "I understand, Grandfather."
At the He family villa, Xu Wanwan opened her eyes and sat straight up when she saw the unfamiliar environment.
Her head felt muddled and her vision blacked out for a moment. She closed her eyes and rested for a good while before feeling much better.
Opening her eyes and looking around the completely unfamiliar room, she glanced down and saw she was wearing someone else's clothes. This panicked Xu Wanwan.
Xu Wanwan clutched her head trying hard to remember what happened last night. She only remembered attending a class gathering and drinking some fruit wine. After that...she seemed to have dreamt about He Junting.
Other than some dizziness, she didn't feel discomfort anywhere else, so it seemed nothing bad had happened. Xu Wanwan breathed a small sigh of relief for now.
But who had changed her clothes for her? And what was this place?
Just as Xu Wanwan was thinking, she heard footsteps outside. She looked warily at the door as a kindly middle-aged woman entered.
Seeing that Xu Wanwan had woken up, Mrs. Zhao immediately smiled affectionately and asked caringly, "Miss Xu, you're awake? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"
Sensing the other's goodwill, Xu Wanwan let down her guard and asked, "May I ask, where is this place? And why am I here?"
Her voice sounded somewhat hoarse. Mrs. Zhao handed her some honey water and said with a smile, "Our young master brought you back. That young master is He Junting. This is the He family's villa. I'm the housekeeper here, my surname is Zhao. Just call me Auntie Zhao."
"Oh, I was the one who changed your clothes, don't worry," Mrs. Zhao added.
After drinking the honey water, Xu Wanwan's throat felt much better. Hearing that she was brought back by He Junting made her eyes widen in surprise.
Why would she be at He Junting's home? Why couldn't she remember anything?
Seeing the completely baffled look on Xu Wanwan's face, Mrs. Zhao couldn't help laughing. "Miss Xu, the young master didn't tell me what happened last night either. Why don't you ask the young master later?"
"Are you hungry? Would you like to go downstairs to eat or should I bring it up for you to eat in your room?"
Hearing Mrs. Zhao's questions, Xu Wanwan finally felt how hungry she was. She quickly said, "No need to trouble yourself Auntie Zhao, I'll go downstairs by myself."
She couldn't possibly trouble them to deliver meals when she was in someone else's home.
Mrs. Zhao nodded, thinking what a sensible girl.
Pointing to a door in the room, she said, "The bathroom is over there. I put your clothes in the closet. I'll go tell the chef to prepare breakfast now."
Xu Wanwan politely nodded, "Thank you Auntie Zhao."
After washing up and going downstairs, Xu Wanwan saw a man and woman in the living room staring at her.
The man's eyebrows looked very similar to He Junting but his whole face seemed much more mature and stern than him.
The woman had gentle features and delicate facial traits. Her slightly curly long hair cascaded freely down her back, giving an impression of extreme nobility yet gentleness.
Were they He Junting's parents?
Bai Mengtao stared heatedly at Xu Wanwan, extremely satisfied inside. The girl was quite good-looking, her rotten son got lucky!
Seeing Xu Wanwan standing there blankly, Bai Mengtao immediately stood up and warmly greeted, "Girl, come here, let Auntie take a look at you!"
Snapping out of her daze, Xu Wanwan realized her impoliteness. Somewhat awkwardly she said, "Uncle, Auntie, hello."
"Good girl, so pretty! Come sit," Bai Mengtao pulled Xu Wanwan to sit on the sofa.
Xu Wanwan blushed at the sudden compliment. Seeing her cute reaction made Bai Mengtao like her even more.
He Yuanhao just sat there silently, but he pushed the snacks and fruit platter on the coffee table towards Xu Wanwan.
"Your name is Xu Wanwan right? Can I call you Wanwan? How old are you this year? Where's your home? What major are you studying?"
Xu Wanwan felt a little stunned by this string of questions but politely answered them one by one, "You can call me Wanwan, Auntie. I'm 18 this year. My hometown is in Linyun. Currently I'm a freshman majoring in Fashion Design at Hai City University."
