Chapter 65: Completely Contrary to His Expectations

"I like it." A pure, satisfied smile bloomed on her face.

Seeing Lin Nanxun smile, Ye Ning's face also lit up with happiness.

"As long as you like it. Drink slowly, don't burn yourself. I'll head out now," Ye Ning said, turning to leave.

As soon as Ye Ning left, Lin Nanxun picked up the cup in front of her, gently blew on the tea, and obediently took a sip.

Just as she set the cup down, the office door was knocked on again.

"Come in," Ron glanced toward the doorway.

The door opened, and this time a sunny-looking young man entered, his arms filled with things.

Lin Nanxun recalled his name—he seemed to be called Wang Cheng...

Wang Cheng walked straight to Lin Nanxun's desk. Seeing the girl looking at him with wide eyes, his face flushed, and he lowered his head a little shyly, a bashful smile on his lips.

"I heard from Ye Ning that you like yogurt, so I brought all I had, along with some chips and cookies," he stammered, too embarrassed to meet her gaze. "If it's not enough, I can bring more tomorrow."

He had never met such a beautiful and adorable girl before...

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Cheng set the snacks on her desk and, without waiting for Lin Nanxun to respond, turned and hurried out.

Lin Nanxun stared at the pile of snacks in front of her, her expression a mix of surprise and curiosity, still unsure why everyone was bringing her delicious treats and drinks.

Just as Lin Nanxun was examining the snacks in confusion, the office door sounded again.

This time it was Xu Lili. Compared to Ye Ning and Wang Cheng's cheerful faces, Xu Lili's mature features wore a more composed expression.

"I only have mint candies. You can have one when you need a little pick-me-up," she said, placing the candy on the desk. Without saying much more, she left.

Lin Nanxun was stunned, gazing at the items on her desk, her face full of astonishment.

She reached for the mint candy, turning it over in her hand, and suddenly felt a little happy.

The people here were all so gentle, so different from those she met after she fell ill.

No one called her a fool, and no one looked at her with mocking smiles...

A sudden warmth filled her heart.

In this environment, the fear inside her seemed to slowly melt away...

...

Shen Hanzhi had been busy all morning; the year-end tasks were overwhelming.

By the time he finally found a moment for lunch, it was already two in the afternoon.

"Boss, your lunch is here." Zhou Bei arrived at Shen Hanzhi's desk, holding the freshly delivered nutritious meal.

But there was no response to Zhou Bei’s words.

At this moment, Shen Hanzhi was sitting with his head lowered, staring intently at his phone screen.

His handsome face was somber, unreadable, but the slight furrow between his brows revealed his mood.

There were no missed calls on his phone, and no new messages on WeChat.

His chat with Lin Nanxun still lingered on the selfie she had accidentally sent him yesterday afternoon.

The whole morning had passed without a single message from her, contrary to all his expectations.

He had thought that the girl who always clung to him, once placed in an unfamiliar environment, would call him within two hours.

So...
