Chapter 46 Chapter 46 Are you in a good mood?

The elevator stopped steadily on the fourth floor, and Fu Zhiyao took her into a spacious and luxurious box, which was empty.

Yu Wan asked Fu Zhiyao curiously, "Boss, did the partner leave?"

"I don't have any partners. I just asked you to come for dinner."

"And the documents?"

"I need the file tomorrow."

As he spoke, Fu Zhiyao had already strode around Yu Wan and sat down. The waiter followed him quietly and handed the menu to Fu Zhiyao.

Yu Wan hesitated a little: "Boss, do you want to eat here?"

Fu Zhiyao flipped through the menu with his slender fingers. He raised his eyes to look at Yu Wan, motioning her to come over and choose. "Aren't you hungry? Order first and we'll talk after you finish eating."

"oh."

Yu Wan put her bag and documents away, sat down next to Fu Zhiyao, and tilted her head to look at the menu in Fu Zhiyao's hand. The distance between them was unconsciously shortened. The faint fragrance of white magnolia lingered at the tip of his nose, reminding Fu Zhiyao of that night in Hong Kong City.

After being a boss for so many years, he believes that he is not a person without a sense of propriety, especially when it comes to female subordinates. As the president of the group, he rarely stays alone with female subordinates in the same space for more than 30 minutes on weekdays. Even if he does, other executives are present.

But that day, he not only let Yu Wan in, but also took the initiative to hold her hand and asked her to stay and watch the documentary with him.

This is not like him at all.

Fu Zhiyao carefully recalled what happened that day. He could feel that Yu Wan did not resist his request to stay. Was it because his tone was too commanding during the process or was it because Yu Wan was too lax and did not think it was dangerous to be in the same room with a man?

Yu Wan didn't notice Fu Zhiyao's gaze and looked at the menu intently.

The cheapest dish costs more than two hundred yuan, which is higher than Yu Wan's blood pressure. But no matter what, the price is definitely cheaper than that of a Japanese restaurant. Besides, she promised to treat the boss to a meal, so she can't be so stingy in the end.

Yu Wan made up her mind and ordered a dish that interested her: "Puffer fish marinated in rice oil!"

A powerful voice brought Fu Zhiyao back to reality. He clenched his fist and placed it on his lips, coughing softly: "Anything else?"

Yu Wan felt embarrassed and pushed the menu towards Fu Zhiyao: "Boss, you choose."

When entertaining guests, of course the host should follow the guests’ wishes.

In the end, they ordered five dishes and a bowl of porridge, which was definitely too much for two people, but who was the boss? She usually felt that he was being unfairly treated badly after eating seven or eight dishes. Yu Wan thought that the boss was still quite considerate of her wallet.

After dinner, Yu Wan went to the front desk to pay the bill, and was told by the staff that the amount would be directly debited from Fu Zhiyao's card and she didn't have to pay.

Yu Wan was surprised for less than two seconds before she realized that whenever she and her boss went out to eat, she never paid for the meal herself. Either Fu Zhiyao gave her the black card before the meal, or he would directly use Fu Zhiyao's name to record the bill, and her money was never used at all.

But the situation is different today. Didn’t she agree to treat the boss to a meal?

Yu Wan: "Then could you please refund the money to the membership card account and I can pay it again?"

The staff member smiled apologetically at her and said, "Ms. Yu, it's possible, but the member himself needs to be present. Or I can go with you to see Mr. Fu?"

Yu Wan was helpless: "It's okay, I'll ask first."

Yu Wan returned to the box.

Fu Zhiyao just came out of the bathroom, threw the towel he used to wipe his hands on the table, raised his hand to adjust the tie around his neck, and said, "I'm ready, let's go."

"Boss, didn't you agree that I would treat you to a meal?"

Fu Zhiyao raised his sharp eyebrows and asked, "Did I agree?"

Yu Wan thought about it and realized that there really wasn’t one.

She pursed her lips: "Then boss, do you want to eat Binqing?"

If the boss said he wanted to, then she would postpone the treat a little bit, wait until the end of the year, and wait until her year-end bonus was paid out. The year-end bonus was calculated based on salary and length of service, and it was definitely a considerable income. Then she wouldn't feel so bad about treating the boss to a meal at Binqing.

Yu Wan had a calculating expression on her face, which made Fu Zhiyao want to laugh. He didn't say much and took Yu Wan to the underground parking lot.

He raised his hand and pressed the car key, and the lights of a black Bentley Chancellor with smooth lines turned on.

Yu Wan was no longer surprised by her boss's behavior of driving a new luxury car every other day, but she always felt that the logo of this car was a bit similar to the one that Lu Suige drove her back to school last time.

But Brother Lu Sui is only two years older than her, and if he starts working after graduation, it won't be easy for him to get a car like this.

Yu Wan was confused for only a few seconds before Fu Zhiyao interrupted her: "Get in the car, I'll take you home."

"Okay, thank you, boss."

During the meal, Yu Wan told Fu Zhiyao about the incident where Xiao Cheng's car was scratched. She was just a little surprised that her boss would drive himself.

Between the front passenger seat and the back seat, Yu Wan chose the front passenger seat without a second thought. She could even imagine the scene where she chose the back seat and Fu Zhiyao would say that he didn't want to be the driver.

Well, it must be said that she knows her boss better than she knows herself.

As expected, when he saw Yu Wan sitting in the passenger seat, Fu Zhiyao raised his eyebrows, which was a subconscious action he would do when he was in a good mood.

The car started, and Fu Zhiyao suddenly asked, "Do you have a driver's license?"

Yu Wan shook her head: "No."

In fact, he had no time to study. After the college entrance examination, he was busy working part-time to make money. He did consider it after entering university so that it could be used as a skill point when looking for a job in the future. But when he really experienced university life, Yu Wan was too busy to rest. He listened hard in class and completed homework to earn GPA points, participated in various extracurricular activities to earn moral education points so as to get scholarships, and did odd jobs here and there on weekends... There were too many things that hindered his hands and feet, so Yu Wan still does not have a driver's license.

Fu Zhiyao understood and said, "Take some time to get a driver's license. Then Cai Yang will provide you with a car so that you can go out on field trips more conveniently."

Yu Wan doesn't have a car, so she currently takes public transportation or calls an online taxi when she goes out for work. She finds it very convenient and can flexibly choose according to the waiting time on the taxi app, saving time and costs.

It is understandable that the boss asked her to take a driving test. After all, she and the boss go out to meet clients often. If the drivers Uncle Wu and Xiao Cheng are busy one day, it is impossible to let the drunk boss drive. Step back, even if the boss is not drunk, letting the boss drive is treating him as a driver.

However, will she be given a car after she gets her driver’s license?

Is this the treatment she, a small secretary, can get?

Yu Wan instantly thought of what happened before dinner tonight and understood something.

Yu Wan pinched her fingers: "Boss, did you hear what I said to him?"

Fu Zhiyao didn't expect Yu Wan to have such a novel angle on the issue. He neither admitted nor denied it.

When he went downstairs, he happened to see Yu Wan checking the scratches on the car with a distressed look on his face. Before he could call Yu Wan, he saw the man walking towards him.

Of course, he couldn't hear what they were saying through the glass, but fortunately, his telepathic skills worked stably. Fu Zhiyao changed his position slightly and heard the man's inner voice, which was really a pollution to his ears.

He was too lazy to watch the show anymore, so he waved to a hotel staff member and raised his chin so that the staff could see Yu Wan's position clearly.

"That young lady, her surname is Yu, the same as Yu Meiren, and I am with her."

The staff at the luxury hotel were clearly experts at reading people's expressions. They immediately understood Fu Zhiyao's intention and flattered him, "Mr. Fu, please wait a moment. I'll bring Miss Yu in right away."

The car started, standing out in the quiet and empty parking lot.

Fu Zhiyao said, "Is that man your college classmate?"

The speculative tone didn't make Yu Wan think too much.

"Yeah, we're classmates, but we don't interact much."

After all, college is not high school. Even if a group of people sit together in class every day, they will leave after class and basically will not make deep friends except roommates.

In Yu Wan's memory, she had almost no communication with this classmate named Gao Shaofan. She was a transparent person in the class and no one paid attention to her.

Outside the hotel, she had no intention of chatting with Gao Shaofan, but Gao Shaofan mentioned the matter of reporting the scholarship.

The original owner, like her, received scholarships every academic year, and they were not the five-guarantee households or the poverty-stricken students' bonuses. This could be seen by checking the bank card statements, but she did not know that the original owner's scholarship had been reported.

She had the impression that the scholarship being reported happened in her previous life, before she transmigrated into this novel.

Is there such a coincidence in the world?

She looks the same as the original owner, has a similar background, and even has similar experiences.

What's even more bizarre is that Yu Wan finds that she has no recollection of who reported her scholarship in her previous life, but if she substitutes Gao Shaofan's face, Yu Wan can piece together the reason why the scholarship was reported at that time.

It was Gao Shaofan's report that forced her to go around collecting evidence. Finally, she stood on the podium, facing the whole class, and under everyone's gaze, she said that she was an orphan who grew up in an orphanage and needed this scholarship to live. She hoped to gain the understanding and support of her classmates.

The car drove out of the hotel and merged into the traffic on the main road. It was now around eight o'clock in the evening, almost nine o'clock, and night had fallen. Street lights dotted the nearby high-rise buildings in turn. The spires of the buildings were luxurious and majestic, and everything within sight was exquisite and beautiful. The car was driving on the road, as if it was traveling through an exotic street.

Fu Zhiyao asked her, "You have a bad relationship with him?"

Yu Wan lowered her eyes, staring at her fingertips, which had been pinched red by her own hand. She spoke in a low voice, "During the scholarship selection process in my freshman year, he wrote a letter of complaint, saying that I shouldn't have received the scholarship."

"reason."

Yu Wan released her fingers and explained calmly, "He had a crush on a girl in our class at the time. He thought I'd taken her scholarship, so he wrote a letter to report me. But I definitely didn't accept it. My GPA was good, and I actively participated in extracurricular activities. Why shouldn't I get the scholarship? I gathered evidence everywhere, went to my counselor, the dean, and even went to the police station to get proof... But in the end, the problem was resolved, and the scholarship was paid to me on time. It all worked out well."

Fu Zhiyao knew that things were definitely not as simple as Yu Wan said.

Yu Wan is a child who is used to reporting good news but not bad news. She seems to be a softie and doesn't have many emotions, but her heart is as clear as a mirror. She can clearly measure who treats her well and who treats her badly with a ruler.

He is honest and doesn't make enemies actively, but he is not stupid either. He knows how to fight back when he is bullied.

While waiting for the green light, Fu Zhiyao glanced at Yu Wan. She lowered her eyes, and her dark eyelashes cast a light shadow under her eyes, covering her bright and clear eyes. She was so quiet, unlike her usual self.

Inexplicably, the air around him seemed to become heavy. Although he was sitting in the car, it felt like he was caught in the rain that he hated the most.

Fu Zhiyao recalled the incident when Yu Wan's plan was stolen. At that time, was it because Yu Wan didn't ask him for help because she was afraid of not being trusted? Was she stubbornly and clumsily collecting all the evidence, thinking that this was the only way to fight back with justification?

He turned the steering wheel and the car headed towards another road. After a while, it was driving smoothly on the wide riverside road.

Yu Wan calmed down and turned her head to look out the window. The river surface was painted with colorful lights by the lights of the tall buildings.

There was a loud bang, and a bunch of fireworks suddenly shot up in the dark night sky, blooming in an instant, dazzling and brilliant, lighting up the entire dark night sky, and falling like a shooting star, the scene was beautiful.

Before Yu Wan could exclaim in amazement, more fireworks began to rise up, blooming with dazzling light in the night sky, and the fireworks almost filled the sky above the city.

When Yu Wan noticed, Fu Zhiyao had already found a place to park the car and unbuckled his seat belt.

Yu Wan turned to look at him in confusion. Fu Zhiyao said simply, "Get out of the car and take a look."

The place where the fireworks were set off was on the other side of the river. The riverbank was wide and paved with lime bricks and fences. Because it was maintained by relevant government departments, the road was clean and tidy, and there was no garbage to be seen. Many elderly people who had finished dinner took their babbling children out for a walk, and there were also young men and women who were walking their dogs and chatting happily.

Because of this sudden fireworks feast, everyone stopped and looked up to admire it.

Yu Wan placed her hands on the railing, looking up at the brilliant fireworks blooming in the night sky, not daring to miss the view in front of her for a moment.

Fu Zhiyao walked to her side and looked up like her. The colorful fireworks reflected on them and flashed in their eyes.

Before the last cluster of fireworks ended, Yu Wan suddenly heard Fu Zhiyao's voice.

Fu Zhiyao: "Yu Wan, trust your boss more from now on."

Yu Wan tilted her head, the afterglow of the fireworks fell, forming a slender arc in the night sky, passing through the dark pupils of the man in front of her. The summer night breeze was so gentle, wrapped in Fu Zhiyao's voice and the rustling of leaves, landing beside her ears.

Fu Zhiyao lowered his eyes to look at Yu Wan, his gaze unbiased. "Perhaps I wasn't clear enough last time, Yu Wan. Choosing you as my secretary the first time was a bit accidental, but letting you stay in the President's Office was a decision I made after careful consideration. No one coerced me, nor was there anyone I couldn't find to make do with you. There's nothing shameful in asking your boss for help when you encounter a problem. If you don't trust yourself, you should always trust your boss. My vision isn't that bad. Remember the above. Remember it well. If you can't remember it, copy it down and post it at your workstation to remind yourself every day. Do you understand?"

Yu Wan stared at Fu Zhiyao blankly, her heart seemed to turn into the sea, the tides rising and falling in an instant, roaring in her ears.

After a moment, Yu Wan slowly smiled, brighter and hotter than fireworks.

"I understand, boss, thank you."

Thank you very much.

After the fireworks faded, the crowd became noisy again. Fu Zhiyao put one hand in his pocket and walked towards the parked car. Yu Wan followed beside him with light steps.

Fu Zhiyao glanced at her and said in a leisurely tone, "Do you know why I'm treating you today?"

Yu Wan was unsure: "Are you in a good mood?"

Fu Zhiyao frowned: "Am I really that old? Why do I always use 'you'? I'll use 'you' from now on."

Yu Wan quickly changed the subject: "Okay, Boss. Then why are you in such a good mood today?"

Fu Zhiyao curled his lips imperceptibly: "Guess?"

Yu Wan: “…”
