Chapter 371: Chapter 371
Ye Ling knew that Bai Hehua would definitely come over to say hello. Seeing the female employees around looking over, Ye Ling understood. Actually, there was a little sense of satisfaction in her heart. Being a temporary worker in the company isn’t something anyone can just get into, especially when she’s not even from this company. No wonder those female employees looked envious when they saw Bai Hehua knowing her. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ n0velfire.net
"Yes, I just came by to experience it. Ye Qian is also in training this time, it’s rare for you to be together. Did you see her?" Ye Ling didn’t miss the look of pride on Bai Hehua’s face.
Riding on someone else’s power, in a past life, Bai Hehua, who married well, could already lift her tail in pride, let alone in this life where she’s a soldier, making a group of peers look at her enviously.
Bai Hehua was indeed proud in her heart, but there was also an indescribable bitterness. Clearly, she was the same age as Ye Ling. Ye Ling was able to go to university because of her good family background, while she could only choose to be a worker. After joining the company for two years, she tried taking university exams, but it wasn’t that easy. She couldn’t keep up with the coursework. Even though there were evening classes in the company, she felt it was beyond her ability.
Now, seeing her companions envy her for having such a sister, who could understand how upset she was inside? And it was the person in front of her who was with Shen Bin, the person she couldn’t obtain back then, who was also a leader’s son. Why is Ye Ling’s life so good?
Ever since she learned Shen Bin’s true identity, Bai Hehua’s heart burned like fire, hating Ye Ling every moment, but that was all she could do.
"I just saw her not long ago. She said the eldest sister is here too. I was wondering when I could see you; I didn’t expect us to be in the same tent, quite a coincidence." Bai Hehua looked at Ye Ling’s epaulet, "Eldest sister is really impressive. My little friends all envy you for getting into university. Now that we’re living together, you must tell me more about life in university when you have the time."
Bai Hehua’s words finally gave those little girls a chance to join the conversation, "Yeah, what’s it like in university?"
"I heard you get good jobs right after you graduate, right?"
"What do you study at school?"
"Is it all practical?"
Before long, Ye Ling was surrounded by the girls. Ye Ling answered them one by one, and glanced at Bai Hehua with a subtle smile in the crowd, realizing that she really knew how to handle things. No wonder Bai Hehua was doing so well in the company.
When Ye Qian came in, she saw Ye Ling surrounded by a group of female employees. Since Ye Ling was sitting, she naturally didn’t notice, but Bai Hehua did and walked out of the crowd to greet Ye Ling.
"They heard that the eldest sister is in university and have a ton of questions. Little sister, if you want to talk to the eldest sister, you’ll have to wait." Bai Hehua smiled politely.
Ye Qian gave Bai Hehua a cold glance, then gently smiled, "Since the cousin and elder sister are living together, you can talk more often in the future. Ask the elder sister how to get into the university easily. I’m not counting on it now since I already have a job. But if the cousin doesn’t get promoted soon, she might face dismissal."
Bai Hehua’s smile turned dry, and Ye Qian smugly turned to leave, running into Li Guoqing at the entrance. Ye Qian saw a big bowl of hot noodle soup with two poached eggs on top.
She sweetly smiled, "Is this today’s lunch?"
In the cold winter, a bowl of hot noodle soup naturally sounds good.
Li Guoqing chuckled, "It’s a patient’s meal."
He didn’t bother with Ye Qian anymore and went directly into the tent, noticing the group of female soldiers gathered there, then called out, "Ye Ling."
Seeing the bowl of noodles was indeed for Ye Ling, Ye Qian bit her lip in hatred and turned to leave. Bai Hehua was also quite surprised but soon understood when she thought of Shen Bin. Of course, with Shen Bin, Ye Ling wouldn’t have a bad time in the company.
A man suddenly called for Ye Ling, causing the female employees to disperse. Ye Ling saw Li Guoqing, stood up, and Li Guoqing came forward, "These are your noodles."
Under everyone’s gaze, Li Guoqing added, "Shen Bin asked me to make these for you."
Ye Ling had already thanked him and taken the noodles. Before she could ask about it, she heard Li Guoqing’s added remark, which made her face uncontrollably blush. Looking at Li Guotai’s playful gaze, she suddenly felt calm. Although the look was the same, it was somehow different.
When Xiang Weilai looked at her, the tenderness in his eyes was genuine, like a lake that could melt a person. But the gaze of the man in front of her was full of curiosity and scrutiny, completely different.
"Thank you." Ye Ling knew she had eyes on her from all around, so she didn’t say more. "You can go back to your tasks."
Seeing Ye Ling handling herself calmly despite being shy, Li Guoqing laughed, "I’m in charge of the kitchen now. If you want anything, come straight to the kitchen for me."
Ye Ling glanced at his attire and manner, doubting he worked in the kitchen. As if reading her mind, Li Guotai laughed heartily, "Shen Bin transferred me over."
Without waiting for Ye Ling to say more or seeing her reaction, Li Guotai strode away, his laughter echoing through the tent.
The special treatment made the female employees hesitant to get too close to Ye Ling as before. Bai Hehua acted as if nothing had happened, and came up to Ye Ling, "Eldest sister, you’re quite thin, you should eat more. I just heard him say you’re with Shen Bin now?"
Ye Ling picked at her noodles, looked up at Bai Hehua, unsure of her motives. After thinking for a moment, she nodded, which only brought a sigh from Bai Hehua.
Seeing Ye Ling not asking, Bai Hehua continued, "I just arrived today, and need to discuss some things with everyone. I’ll talk with you later when I have the time."
Seeing Ye Ling still not asking, Bai Hehua got up and went back to her bed, called the female employees for a meeting. Ye Ling just ate her noodles and watched from the side. Despite Bai Hehua’s previous actions, seeing her conduct herself strictly and meticulously now, Ye Ling thought Bai Hehua wasn’t so bad after all.
Once the meeting was over, the whistle for assembly sounded outside. The people in the tent poured out, Ye Ling wasn’t in a hurry and peeked outside through the slit in the tent. About twenty women employees were standing while Shen Bin was in front giving a speech, just like during military training.
Ye Ling felt her stomach, having eaten late at home, she didn’t think she’d be hungry by noon, but she wound up finishing the entire bowl of noodles and soup. Shen Bin, being a large man, was surprisingly attentive. Thinking about it, Ye Ling paused, when Shen Bin married her in their past life, did he already know she had someone else in her heart? Then why did he marry her?
