Chapter 300: Chapter 300: Painful and Spicy!
Hearing Mo Chuxi’s words, Yan Xinxin finally withdrew her hand from his arm.
"Lunch break is almost over. | don’t want to be late."
She changed the subject and quickly turned around.
"Yan Xinxin."
Mo Chuxi reached out and grabbed Yan Xinxin’s slender arm, halting her steps.
Looking at her stubborn back, he thought again about how deeply he had hurt her in the past. His grip slowly
loosened.
"Lettake you back."
He let go and headed toward the car.
Now, it was Yan Xinxin’s turn to stare strangely at his back.
Was it just an illusion?
Why did it seem like he wanted to say something but held back?
Mo Chuxi drove Yan Xinxin back to Di Jue. The bouquet of 88 red roses he had gifted her had no choice but to lie
quietly in the car.

Lunch break ended just in time.
Yan Xinxin walked into the office and immediately felt the atmosphere around her was different.
She approached her workstation and saw a brand-new water cup placed on it. Not only that, but there was also a
cup of milk tea and a small cake.
As she was feeling puzzled, Tong Lili cover with a big smile.
"Xinxin, | specially picked out this water cup for you—it’s much better than your old one! Are you satisfied?"
She asked playfully, her previous arrogance completely gone.
"And this milk tea and cake, well, it's Lily Jie’s gesture of apology to you. If you're no longer mad at me, then
please don’t refuse my goodwill."
Tong Lili was almost groveling at this point, but she remained anxious, afraid that Yan Xinxin would reject her
apology.
If Yan Xinxin did reject her, then she’d surely be one step closer to being ousted!
Watching Yan Xinxin’s silent reaction, Tong Lili grew even more uneasy.
"Xinxin..."
"Since Lily Jie is so sincere in her apology, let's call what happened before even. But | still prefer my old cup."
Yan Xinxin smiled faintly, her clear, dazzling eyes calmly sweeping across Ling Siyu, who was seated at the
adjacent desk.
"Mo Chuxi already treatedto a big meal earlier, so I'm still full. As for this milk tea and cake, you'd better
enjoy them yourself!"
Tong Lil's expression froze, instantly becoming stiff.
Yan Xinxin’s words felt like a slap across her face—burning and stinging!
If she had known Yan Xinxin had someone like Mo Chuxi as her solid backing, she would never have walked
straight into the line of fire!
She was used to bullying those she deemed weak, but clearly this tshe had kicked a diamond instead of a
soft target!
"Then... then I'll eat them myself. | won't disturb your work anymore."
Tong Lili awkwardly blushed, took back the milk tea and cake, and dejectedly turned back to her desk.
Realizing that the colleagues who usually flattered her were now looking at her with strange expressions, she
wished she could find a hole to crawl into!
"Yan Xinxin, don’t you think we're destined to clash?"
Ling Siyu’s sarcastic voice drifted toward Yan Xinxin.
"| can’t afford to provoke you, but I'm sure I'm more capable than you! You know very well why you got into this
place."
"I think you seem to know even better than | do, don’t you?"
Yan Xinxin replied unhurriedly, her elegant and composed gaze instantly sharpening.
"Destined to clash? You give yourself too much credit. I've never considered you my rival."
Ling Siyu’s face immediately darkened, glaring at Yan Xinxin with resentment.
"Tch! Seductive fox!"
Yan Xinxin glanced at her calmly, unfazed.
"Thanks for complimenting my looks."
"Yan Xinxin, you..."
"Xinxin."
Xiao Yize’s gentle voice suddenly rang out.
As soon as Ling Siyu saw the refined Xiao Yize, her expression instantly shifted to a smile.
"Good afternoon, Young Master Xiao~"
She greeted him with a flirtatious smile.
Xiao Yize nodded indifferently, his gaze turning back to Yan Xinxin's face.
"Xinxin, both of you cto my office. | have something important to announce."
