As soon as Ye Tianfan finished speaking, a black Audi parked at the entrance of the small noodle shop, and Su Yueyi got out of the car, quickly walking into the restaurant.

Upon seeing Su Yueyi's figure, Ye Tianfan couldn't help but furrow his brows. She had changed so much during their time apart! Her entire aura was completely different compared to before!

Compared to the gentle, taciturn Su Yueyi from before, now she was filled with the traits of a professional woman. Her tall and curvy figure was wrapped in a slightly tight-fitting office lady suit, showcasing her exquisite and graceful body. Her full waist swayed delicately as she walked.

"Su Yueyi, long time no see." Ye Tianfan still sat at the spot nearest the kitchen, sizing up Su Yueyi's outfit, and greeted her with a wave.

Upon hearing Ye Tianfan's voice, Su Yueyi noticeably paused. She hadn't expected Ye Tianfan to have arrived before her.

"Brother Tianfan, you're here so early."

Upon hearing Ye Tianfan's voice, a warm smile instantly appeared on Su Yueyi's face, and the aura of a general manager disappeared. No matter the time or place, just seeing Ye Tianfan gently tugged at Su Yueyi's heart, making everything feel like it was in the beginning, and she was still that gentle, lamb-like woman.

This subtle change in Su Yueyi also made Ye Tianfan chuckle knowingly. For a woman to enter the workforce and remain untainted in the cunning, indulgent world of business was truly rare.

"I just craved your beef noodles, so I arrived a bit early."

Hearing Ye Tianfan's words, Su Yueyi smiled softly, "Wait a moment, I'll make it for you right away."

With those words, Su Yueyi briskly walked into the kitchen without a care for her OL outfit. She casually took an apron from the wall and wrapped it around her, then skillfully began working the stove.

Watching Su Yueyi busily at the steaming stove, Ye Tianfan felt a sense of déjà vu. For four years, he had almost daily eaten noodles here. Even though time had passed, the feeling remained unchanged because Su Yueyi hadn't changed; she was still the kind and sincere Su Yueyi.

Soon, Su Yueyi brought a steaming bowl of beef noodles to Ye Tianfan, smiling, "Happy Birthday, Brother Tianfan."

Looking at Su Yueyi's smile, as warm as the spring breeze in March, and the steaming beef noodles before him, Ye Tianfan felt a softness in his heart. So many things had happened recently, and this rare tranquility was so precious.

"Thank you."

After expressing his thanks, Ye Tianfan began eating the noodles with chopsticks. In four years, the taste hadn't changed. Even though Su Yueyi was now the sales manager of Long Group, her noodle-making skills hadn't declined at all.

However, as Ye Tianfan was eating, a man in a suit came in. His medium build, neat suit, meticulously groomed hair, and expensive watch on his wrist marked him as an elite.

Seeing this man enter, Ye Tianfan immediately frowned. Given his attire, this man shouldn't be visiting such a small noodle shop!

"President Su, I finally found you. The company..." The man was clearly there for Su Yueyi, but he stopped mid-sentence.

Su Yueyi was wearing an apron over her OL outfit?

She was the sales manager of Long Group, yet she was wearing an apron, standing in a noodle shop?

The man looked at the scene incredulously, full of surprise. Could Manager Su be making noodles for someone? His gaze naturally fell on Ye Tianfan.

Seeing the man come in, displeasure filled Su Yueyi's heart. It was Ye Tianfan's birthday today, and she had mustered a lot of courage to ask him out. Now that they finally had some alone time, she didn't want anyone to disturb them.

With anger in her eyes, the gentle smile on Su Yueyi's face vanished, replaced by a cold, icy expression. She coldly said to the man, "Didn't I instruct that all business should be stopped today? What are you doing here?"

The sudden change in Su Yueyi's demeanor startled the man. Since becoming the sales manager of Long Group, Su Yueyi had been decisive and efficient. Due to slackness and tardiness, she fired more than a dozen employees in a month. Seeing her so angry made the man nervously uneasy.

"President Su, it's really urgent. Otherwise, I wouldn't disturb you." He handed a stack of documents from his briefcase to Su Yueyi, adding nervously, "Last night, our sales department's funds unexpectedly spent three million! I..."

"Three million?"

Hearing the man's words, Su Yueyi's face suddenly changed. Three million was not a trivial amount for her sales department. She had just joined Long Group, and a sudden financial loss, especially of such a large sum, would be difficult to explain to Miss Long if not thoroughly investigated!

"Have you identified the fund flow?" Su Yueyi took the documents from the man, her brows tightly knitted, and scanned them with a frosty expression.

"Yes, it was identified as charity funds going from public to private accounts," the man explained cautiously.

"Charity funds? Public to private?" Su Yueyi's face grew more severe. She muttered, "Are you saying this money was transferred from our company's public account to a personal account?"

"Yes, it was transferred last night," the man promptly explained.

"It was transferred last night, so why are you only reporting it now? What were you doing during those hours?" Anger surged in Su Yueyi's heart, and she slammed the documents onto the table.

The man's body trembled, stammering, "Last...last night I looked for you...but...you..."

Before the man could finish, Su Yueyi interrupted him with a raised hand, a crimson blush spreading across her face. She became inadvertently embarrassed, realizing that the man indeed couldn't find her last night. In her excitement about meeting Ye Tianfan today, she had stayed awake all night, holding Ye Tianfan's photo, wandering alone by Tai Lake until dawn.

"Whose personal account was it transferred to? Have you found out?" Su Yueyi asked.

The man quickly replied, "Yes, it's someone with the last name Ji, and the reason for the transfer was listed as surgery fees."

A man with the last name Ji? Surgery fees?

Hearing this, even before Su Yueyi could react, Ye Tianfan's heart sank. Long Group's transfer, a Ji surname, and surgery fees—it had to be a payment to Ji Liancheng! Could it be that something happened to Ji Liancheng's grandmother? But he had already given the Ye Family's secret medicine to Ji Liancheng; as long as he gave it to his grandmother in time, nothing should happen! But why would Long Group suddenly transfer a three million surgery fee?
