CHAPTER 332: CHAPTER 312: BAO YE, I’M HUNGRY

The waiter fearfully looked up at her, then lowered his head self-deprecatingly, wiping his tears and sobbing: "Three hundred thousand."

"I’m still in school, this money is enough for me to study abroad. I was wrong, I shouldn’t have lost my senses and done such a harmful thing, please forgive me, don’t send me to the police station, I can’t have this on my record."

She spoke while crying.

Jiang Ruan’s gaze was calm; since entering the entertainment industry until now, she had never harmed anyone.

Even when it came to competing for resources, it was always fair competition.

She never harbored ill intentions towards anyone.

Yet, there were always people wanting to harm her.

Jiang Ruan was no pushover. She stood up from the sofa, walked towards the waiter, and said sharply: "How did he give you the money? It shouldn’t have been in cash, right? Three hundred thousand is no small amount."

Moreover, for a girl like her.

Suddenly bringing so much money would draw a lot of attention.

"Not cash."

"He said he’d transfer it to my card once it was done."

Jiang Ruan: "When will he transfer it?"

The waiter took out his phone: "It’s nine o’clock now. He said he’d transfer it by nine-thirty."

Hearing this, Jiang Ruan looked at Bao Ye.

With their eyes meeting, he immediately understood what she meant.

The organizers didn’t expect that someone would actually try to harm Jiang Ruan.

With Bao Ye there, they had no choice but to help resolve the matter.

Nine-thirty.

The time arrived.

The waiter’s phone chimed with a "ding" text message.

It was particularly noticeable in the quiet office.

In full view of everyone, the waiter tremblingly opened his phone and showed it to them.

Sure enough, the three hundred thousand had been transferred.

Bao Ye took over.

Without saying a word, he asked someone to trace the other party’s account.

But this was like looking for a needle in a haystack; it’s impossible to find out quickly.

In the end, the organizer spoke: "Mr. Bao, we will definitely give you and Miss Jiang an explanation. We won’t tolerate anyone causing trouble at the annual meeting."

"But it’s indeed a bit late today, and the annual event is over. How about we contact you once we find out, does that sound good?"

It was clearly perfunctory.

Bao Ye’s expression was indifferent, and no one could read his true emotions.

Everyone was watching his reaction.

The waiter sat beside him, her eyes swollen from crying, looking pitiful.

If Bao Ye didn’t relent, this matter would never end.

At this point, Jiang Ruan’s soft voice came to his ears, so light that only he could hear it.

"Bao Ye, I’m hungry."

Those few words made Bao Ye’s Adam’s apple slightly move, a sparkle glimmered in his dark eyes as he looked up at her.

Her face had a delicately applied makeup, charming yet innocent, as if she was a lotus emerging from the water, her skin so tender it seemed to be able to squeeze out water.

She blinked at him like that.

Bao Ye: "..." Damn.

In the end, he softened.

After a moment, Bao Ye turned his head and spoke: "Three days."

"I’m giving you three days to find out who it was."

After speaking, Bao Ye stood up.

Jiang Ruan also got up.

Bao Ye sneered: "If you can’t find out in three days, then I’ll have to question the efficiency of everyone present."

The last three words, Bao Ye pronounced one by one.

Enunciating every word.

It was a blatant ridicule.

A slap in the face to everyone present.

The faces of several people present instantly became extremely unpleasant.

Especially that particularly proud one.

Wanted to curse Bao Ye but was held back by someone beside him. Shaking his head and signaling with his eyes not to.

Bao Ye can’t be offended now.

It’s of no benefit.

After all, they were representing not only themselves but also their families behind them.

Leaving the office, most of the people at the annual meeting had already left.

Walking alongside Bao Ye, Jiang Ruan was in a great mood, even humming a tune.

She looked up and asked the man: "Should we eat first or watch the fireworks?"

"The fireworks should be at midnight, over an hour from now, enough time for us to eat."
