"Why are you sweating so much!" Assistant Zhou couldn't help but go up to the HR manager to check on him.

"Being a manager isn't easy these days!" With that, the HR manager hurried back, as she still needed to change company policies according to the president's wishes...

"Yi Ruo, look! The company's latest announcement!"

Zhang Yuanyuan patted An Yiruo's desktop, gesturing for her to look at the computer.

An Yiruo opened the company email with a puzzled look and saw a company-wide notification, which was an announcement about changes to the company rules and regulations!

"Yi Ruo, this... it wasn't changed by your CEO just for you, was it?" Zhang Yuanyuan said meaningfully.

"This...cannot be done. It's just a matter of changing the rules and regulations."

"Yi Ruo, the president just watched you get scolded by the manager, and then he came up with this rule. If it wasn't for you, who else could it be for?"

An Yiruo didn't answer her question: "It's almost time to get off work. What are your plans after get off work?"

"For someone like me who lives alone, after get off work I just go home and become an internet addict."

"How about we go shopping after get off work?" An Yiruo suddenly suggested.

“Okay. But… will your CEO… agree?” Zhang Yuanyuan leaned closer to An Yiruo and whispered in her ear.

“Then I’ll send him a message.” An Yiruo picked up her phone from her desk and tapped it with her finger.

"Chen, I want to go shopping with Yuanyuan after get off work!"

"Go ahead, have Xiao Zhang take you there, be careful."

"good."

"He agreed. What should we eat tonight?" An Yiruo asked with a smile, waving her phone.

"We have plenty of time, let's have some barbecue!"

"Okay, I haven't eaten in a long time."

The two hit it off immediately, quickly packed their belongings, and then left work right on time, becoming the first employees to walk out of the office.

"My car is parked over there."

"Yi Ruo, little rich girl. I want to be your sugar daddy!" Zhang Yuanyuan said, pulling on An Yi Ruo's arm as they walked, acting coquettishly.

Are you sure you want to compete with Mo Jingchen for his favor?

"Uh... forget it. I can't win, I can't win!" Zhang Yuanyuan immediately let go of An Yiruo's arm and hurriedly waved her hand in refusal.

Escorted by Xiao Zhang, the two arrived at the mall. After having a meal, the battle between the two women officially began.

Every time they entered a store, they were able to pick out their favorite little items! After browsing several stores, the two of them had a full load of spoils.

As the two passed by a cheongsam shop, An Yiruo was deeply attracted by the cheongsams in the window and stopped in her tracks.

"Yi Ruo, do you like it?"

"Hmm, traditional Chinese style clothing has been very popular in the last two years, and it has a unique charm when worn. I just don't know if it suits me," An Yiruo said, standing in front of the shop window and looking at the cheongsams on display.

“Go in and give it a try. If you’re naturally beautiful and this doesn’t suit you, then I believe there’s no one in the world who would,” Zhang Yuanyuan said, pulling her directly into the store.

"Waitress, please bring this lady the cheongsam from the window to try on."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

The moment An Yiruo emerged from the fitting room, Zhang Yuanyuan finally understood what "stunning beauty" truly meant. She was so beautiful; An Yiruo standing before her was simply breathtaking. Even as a woman, she couldn't help but be captivated by her.

"Yi Ruo, I must say, this outfit is practically tailor-made for you!"

"Yes, miss. Your temperament suits this cheongsam perfectly. It shows off your figure beautifully and makes you look very elegant," the waitress behind her couldn't help but praise.

"The cheongsam is truly gorgeous, its beauty praised by all. It perfectly showcases Eastern beauty, a graceful flower. That perfectly describes you. I'll make the decision for you, this is the one. Waiter, pack it up." Zhang Yuanyuan was really reluctant to let An Yiruo take off the dress.

"But Yuanyuan. I just saw the prices in the fitting room! They're so expensive!" An Yiruo whispered reluctantly in Zhang Yuanyuan's ear.

"Your CEO shouldn't be short of money for a cheongsam! Besides, he might be pleased to see you wearing it."

An Yiruo looked at herself in the mirror again. She really liked this cheongsam: "I'll take this one."

After leaving the store, the two strolled around for a while before heading back.

"You're back." Mo Jingchen sat on the living room sofa, and upon hearing the sound of the door opening, he got up and walked towards the entrance.

“Look at my spoils. But… I swiped your card, hehe.” An Yiruo picked up the bag in her hand and shook it.

"I'm glad you like it."

“I also bought you a tie, I think it should suit you quite well,” An Yiruo said, taking a delicate little box out of the packaging bag and handing it to Mo Jingchen.

"Go shopping more often when you have time. If not, invite Mom and Grandma to come along too." Mo Jingchen didn't want to say it directly because he wanted An Yiruo to buy him more gifts.

Returning home from shopping on a day like this, with a gift for her husband in her pocket, felt absolutely wonderful! So much so that Mo Jingchen lingered, clutching the tie box...

The next day, as soon as An Yiruo arrived at the company, she saw a cup of coffee and a small cake on her workstation. However, Zhang Yuanyuan's seat was empty, which puzzled An Yiruo.

"Yi Ruo, what are you thinking about? You seem lost in thought," Zhang Yuanyuan said, patting An Yi Ruo on the back.

“Yuanyuan, there’s suddenly a cup of coffee and a small cake on my workstation!” An Yiruo said, pointing to the two items.

"It wasn't a gift from your CEO, was it?" Zhang Yuanyuan looked at An Yiruo with a mischievous grin, as if she knew everything.

"It wasn't him."

"If it's not your CEO, then who could it be? Who does good deeds anonymously?" Zhang Yuanyuan glanced at the coffee label and continued, "A meal like this at Starbucks isn't cheap."

"I don't know who put it on my desk. There was no one in the office when I came in!"

"I'll ask for you," Zhang Yuanyuan patted An Yiruo's shoulder, reassuring her.

"Who bought breakfast this morning and put it in the wrong place? Did they put it on Yi Ruo's desk?" Zhang Yuanyuan asked her colleagues sitting in the office.

"Hey, could it be that some suitor is trying to woo us because we're so young and beautiful?" a colleague joked when no one responded.

"Get lost. It's normal for someone as pretty as you to have suitors. It would be abnormal if you didn't!" Zhang Yuanyuan retorted to her colleague before returning to her seat.

"If that's the case, then don't eat it. Be careful, it might be some kind of prank." Zhang Yuanyuan suddenly thought of the recent online reports about someone randomly delivering meals to different people, adding different "ingredients" to each meal, just to see how the person would react after eating it!

"You're right. I don't know who put it here, so it's still inedible."
