When He Ming entered, everyone’s gaze was fixed on him, and the female colleagues looked at him with starry eyes.

He Ming was still dressed casually, looking handsome and remarkable. Standing at the doorway, his eyes immediately found Ye Xiaomeng’s figure.

Xiaomeng wanted to pretend not to recognize him, but his gaze was too intense for her to feign ignorance.

With a forced smile, Xiaomeng approached and said somewhat shyly, “What brings you here?” She was puzzled; after all, his sudden appearance caught her off guard.

“Your phone wasn’t reachable, so I got worried and rushed over,” He Ming explained. After all, now she was his top priority.

“I’m fine. You’re busy with work, so you should go back,” Xiaomeng urged. She didn’t want to be the center of attention like an animal in a zoo.

He Ming suddenly realized he had become the center of attention in the office, with many people looking over.

He wanted to keep a low profile, but reality wouldn’t allow it.

He politely nodded to everyone.

“Hey mister, where did you come from? You’ve got such a beautiful girlfriend,” remarked a colleague sarcastically.

“I work at a small company. Thank you for your compliment,” He Ming replied with courtesy, showing humility.

Xiaomeng looked at him differently now. Before, he didn’t like exchanging such polite words with strangers.

But Xiaomeng couldn’t help but massage her temples, feeling a headache coming on. She thought to herself, “What is this guy up to? Doesn’t he realize he’s disrupting my work?”

“I told you so. If he’s willing to let his girlfriend work so hard, his financial situation must be just average,” another colleague sneered from the crowd.

He might look presentable on the outside, but who knows what’s going on behind the scenes?

He Ming heard the remarks, but he didn’t care. He was mature enough to ignore whatever others said.

Ye Xiaomeng was even less concerned. She was always laid-back, and she knew He Ming’s capabilities. In the Gu Group, he was second to none.

So, she just smiled and then grabbed his hand to leave.

“I’ll wait for you at the coffee shop across the street after you finish work. You’ll be off soon anyway,” He Ming said, checking the time. It was almost time for her to get off.

“Okay,” Ye Xiaomeng still felt it necessary to clarify things with him.

After Xiaomeng got off work, she went straight to the coffee shop to find He Ming. He Ming ordered a piece of cake for her, and Xiaomeng couldn’t refuse. She had no immunity to desserts.

After finishing the cake, He Ming suggested taking a stroll.

As soon as they got into the car, Xiaomeng suddenly caught a faint scent of perfume. It wasn’t heavy, but during her pregnancy, she had become sensitive to smells. She immediately noticed it.

It couldn’t be He Ming’s scent because it was a bit sweet, with a hint of floral fragrance, the kind women wore.

Xiaomeng suddenly felt a bolt from the blue. She hadn’t expected that within just a few hours, another girl would have been in He Ming’s car. But he seemed reluctant to tell her.

“He Ming, where did you go just now?” Xiaomeng probed.

“I went home. Why?” He Ming was somewhat surprised by Xiaomeng’s reaction, as he didn’t think he had done anything wrong, so he didn’t see any harm in it.

Xiaomeng felt even worse. Such things were hard to prove, and he wouldn’t admit it anyway.
