Chapter 82: Are You Crazy?
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Luna was a proud princess, and Ye Xiaofei knew this very well.
It would be very difficult to make such a proud princess work for him. Therefore, the first thing he had to do was to grind away her pride.
He had brought Meng Zhijing here today for a reason. He wanted Luna to see how Meng Zhijing interacted with him and teach her by example.
He thought that Luna would be embarrassed or even angry after seeing it, but he didn’t expect her to act like this.
Ye Xiaofei was very smart and had a good grasp of human nature. However, there was one thing that he had little knowledge about, and that was the relationship between men and women.
At this point, Luna didn’t like Ye Xiaofei romantically yet, but she was indeed attracted to him. This young man with an evil aura was completely different from the rich young masters she had come into contact with before.
And to think he had such amazing medical skills at such a young age.
Seeing Meng Zhijing and Ye Xiaofei like this today, she had been triggered. The competition between women was unreasonable but also very sharp. If Meng Zhijing could do it, how could she not?
At this point, Meng Zhijing’s admiration for Ye Xiaofei had already reached the horizon.
This was the princess of the Nox Company, a proud young miss. She was a woman who would be worshipped by countless men, yet she was now serving Ye Xiaofei like her.
However, Meng Zhijing didn’t feel uncomfortable at all. Instead, she only had a strong sense of pride. Having the opportunity to serve Ye Xiaofei and work for him was the greatest success in her life.
As for what happened between Ye Xiaofei and Luna, it had nothing to do with her.
Ye Xiaofei enjoyed the service very much, but he didn’t make any unnecessary movements. Luna had been slightly groomed, but if he was too hasty, it would likely cause negative effects. How could such a proud young miss be smoothed out so easily?
The French cuisine was served.
The three of them sat at the dining table. Ye Xiaofei glanced at Luna and said with a smile, “It seems like it’s a bit of a killjoy to eat it with your hands. Luna, let me see how you eat it.”
“Mr. Ye, it can’t be that you haven’t eaten Western food before, right?” Luna asked in surprise.
Ye Xiaofei said, “No, my family was poor when I was young, so we couldn’t afford it. When I could afford it, the environment didn’t allow it.”
Luna immediately grasped the main point and asked carefully, “Oh, the environment didn’t allow it? Was the environment you and my grandfather in very bad?”
Ye Xiaofei said, “Yes, it was very bad and it’s not easy to even have a full stomach. That being said, Old Brown is very healthy. It’s not a problem for him to live for another eight to ten years. But don’t expect me to bring him back. No one can come out of that place except for me.”
Ye Xiaofei knew what Luna wanted to ask, so he said it in one breath and continued, “Hurry up and eat. I can’t wait.”
Luna had no choice but to put down her curiosity about her grandfather and pick up her fork to eat.
Meng Zhijing immediately praised, “I didn’t know you could eat Western food so elegantly. I’m embarrassed to eat now.”
Luna smiled, “You flatter me, Miss Meng. I’ve been trained in all kinds of etiquette since I was young, so these actions are instinctive habits.”
Westerners were indeed not very humble. When they praised her, she simply gave the reason.
Meng Zhijing nodded repeatedly, “I can see that it’s really difficult to have such a noble temperament without many years of training.”
The smile on Luna’s face became even brighter as she said, “But we had a hard time when we were young, and we lost a lot of fun in our childhood too. Miss Meng, when you use the knife, you can raise your wrist a little. That way, your posture will be better.”
As they ate, Luna began to teach Meng Zhijing how to eat Western food elegantly.
After listening for some time, Ye Xiaofei felt a headache coming on. What fun was there in eating like this? It was simply uncomfortable.
He picked up a large piece of steak with his fork and took a big bite.
“Mr. Ye, you…” Luna widened her eyes and looked at Ye Xiaofei as if he was a monster.
“I can’t learn those etiquettes of yours. The two of you can talk about it, just leave me be,” Ye Xiaofei said as he took another big bite. Oil flowed from the corner of his mouth.
Luna frowned and said earnestly, “Mr. Ye, you’re the largest shareholder of the Nox Company and represent the company’s image. If you arc… like this…”
Luna stuttered and could not finish her sentence.
Ye Xiaofei forked another piece of foie gras and stuffed it into his mouth. While chewing, he said, “Do you feel that this is damaging the image of the Nox Company?”
Luna nodded lightly, feeling somewhat guilty. She was afraid that Ye Xiaofei would be angry.
“So what if I’m the shareholder? I don’t plan to manage your company,” Ye Xiaofei said indifferently.”
“Huh?” Luna asked in confusion, “Aren’t you going to be the chairman?”
“Of course not. Such a big company surely has many things to manage. I don’t have so much time to do such boring things.”
When he said this, Ye Xiaofei’s face carried an unspeakable disdain.
“Are you crazy? How many people respect the chairman of the Nox Company? You don’t want to be the chairman? Wait! No! Are you kidding me?”
If this was a few days ago, Meng Zhijing would have thought that Ye Xiaofei had gone crazy. Now, she only admired him even more.
Ye Xiaofei blinked and said, “Aren’t I testing you? You’re beautiful and you like this position. You’re also quite capable. You used to be the princess of the Nox Company too. As long as you pass my test, you’ll be the chairman in the future and represent the image of the Nox Company.”
Luna was dumbfounded, “This… Are you kidding me?”
Seeing that Ye Xiaofei’s mouth was stuffed and he didn’t have time to talk, Meng Zhijing smiled and said, “Mr. Ye isn’t joking with you, of course. You have to work hard. After all, you’ve already passed 10% of the assessment.”
Meng Zhijing was smart. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to become a leader as a woman. She had a rough idea of why Ye Xiaofei brought her here, so when it was time to talk, she naturally took it.
“But…But…” Luna shook her head hard. She still felt that this idea was too crazy.
Meng Zhijing raised her chin with a proud smile on her face.”Miss Luna, it’s just the Nox Company. It’s not enough for Mr. Ye to spend too much effort on it. In the future, you’ll know how glorious it is to follow Mr. Ye.”
The Nox Company was only “just”?
Luna looked at Ye Xiaofei in a daze, feeling that her knowledge was not enough..
