Xu Zhaoyue smiled when she saw Xiao Nan approaching nervously. "Is it necessary to be so nervous? Okay, I'm fine. Let's go back quickly."

After Xiao Nan helped the young lady into the car, she glared at Yue Lanxing with displeasure, blaming him for not stopping the young lady. Yue Lanxing was confused by her glare, but still handed her the box.

"This is a blueberry cake that Miss asked me to pack." After handing the box to Xiao Nan, Yue Lanxing went to drive away.

Xiao Nan got into the car with the cake box in her hand. Blueberry cake was one of her favorites, and she hadn't expected the young lady to bring it for her. Xiao Nan was afraid she had misunderstood, so she looked at the young lady for confirmation.

"Miss, who did you buy this blueberry cake for?" Xiao Nan knew that the young lady would definitely sleep after getting drunk, so she wanted to find out while the young lady was sober.

Xu Zhaoyue's answer was as expected, "These are for you. Don't you like blueberries? I bought two, one for you and one for me. It's a pity that Aunt Wu doesn't like this kind of sweet and sour taste."

Xiao Nan nodded contentedly, her hand holding the cake becoming even steadyer.

"By the way, where did you guys eat?" When Xu Zhaoyue came out, she saw Xiao Nan and Xue Huzi waiting by the car, wondering when they had eaten.

"Oh, we went to the food stalls on the next street. There's a place there that has really good shredded chicken noodles. I also bought some snacks. We strolled around for a while after we finished eating." Xiaonan was in a good mood.

Xue Huzi was sitting in front. He was about to turn around and report to the young lady when Yue Lanxing blocked him with her hand and turned his head back. He didn't know what was going on and wanted to turn around again, but he saw Yue Lanxing's eyes, which were clearly warning.

Bizarre yet intimidating, Xue Huzi obediently looked ahead. "I never expected that just across the street there would be so many food stalls, and so many workers eating there."

“Workers who can work in factories are considered relatively well-off. The food stalls are quite tasty and can fill their stomachs, so naturally they'd prefer to eat there,” Yue Lanxing chimed in.

Xiao Nan nodded, "There were indeed a lot of people. When we went to buy snacks, there was a purchase limit, so I asked Hu Zi to queue up with us."

They were laughing and chatting in the car, while Chen Yun and Zhang Pei, who had left before them, were still on their way.

"This pen Miss Xu gave me is too valuable. What should I give her in return?" Zhang Pei asked Chen Yun, taking out the pen.

Chen Yun didn't care about the price of the gift, so she was puzzled by Zhang Pei's repeated hesitation. "You don't need to worry so much. Giving a gift is all about the thought. She would just give a pen or something. This gift is the one she specially picked out."

"If you want to return the favor, see what she can use. Sigh, you told me before that she just came back from abroad, so I was thinking of treating her to Western food, but I didn't expect that she didn't like it, and neither do I. What a pity."

Zhang Pei noticed that she didn't care about the price of the pen, but her four months' salary seemed to be imprinted in her mind. Whenever she saw the pen, she would think of it, but she really liked the brand.

It seems that these people value the sentiment more, but their sentiments, even a small gesture, can cost prices that are unimaginable to ordinary people. Such a comparison is inevitably disheartening.

When she brought up restaurants, Western food seemed elegant, and didn't they always go to Western restaurants on their dates? What else could they do but eat communal dishes?

Zhang Pei thought this in his heart, but he couldn't say it out loud. "You just said that the most important thing is the sentiment. Miss Xu won't blame you."

"By the way, if Miss Xu wants to publish this in the newspaper, please feel free to come to me. I can speak up for myself now, and I can discuss anything with the editor-in-chief."

Chen Yun nodded. "Okay, I was talking about you with my roommate last month when we were having dinner. My roommate said that the newspaper had a very good opinion of you, and her father was very satisfied with you."

"Oh, really? I didn't know that. I also want to thank her for helping me collect information." Zhang Pei knew that her roommate's father was the deputy editor-in-chief of Tomorrow Daily. He had paid special attention to it when they had dinner together before.

He was able to become a full-time employee this time thanks to the help of Chen Yun's roommate. The article they published together was awarded, which enabled him to become a full-time employee smoothly. He never expected that he would be able to get a number on the deputy editor's list.

"We'll treat her to meals from now on. Oh, we've arrived at the newspaper office." The car stopped in front of the newspaper office.

Zhang Pei hugged Chen Yun and then got out of the car.

"Hey, you just got back from eating out?" someone asked as soon as you walked in.

Zhang Pei straightened his tie and nodded. "Yes, I rushed back right after dinner. I can't let work be delayed."

"I heard you came this morning. You even came to let me know you were here after taking the day off. You're really dedicated. Your outfit is really nice. Did you really go to have dinner with Miss Xu, who just returned from abroad?"

“Yes, Miss Xu is a good friend of my girlfriend. She invited us to dinner as soon as she returned to China. Maybe I can even invite her for an exclusive interview in the future,” Zhang Pei said.

The visitor was also very happy. "That's right. With your connection, we can invite Miss Xu for an exclusive interview in the future. Let me tell you, someone tried to invite Miss Xu, who has been with the company for a long time, for an exclusive interview a while ago, but was rejected terribly."

"I've visited several times, and each time I've drunk my fill of tea, but I still haven't seen her. She just brushed me off with a 'busy' excuse." The visitor looked around and said, "She hasn't accomplished anything yet, but she's already putting on airs. This young lady is back; there's going to be a good show."

Seeing the other person making fun of the Xu family, Zhang Pei shook his head and then said in a low voice, "You can only say these things to me. Don't let others hear them and use them against you."
