Su Luo handed the cake to her daughter and bent down to change into her slippers.

"yes."

How could it not be good? He received a big order worth 100,000 today, so he wanted to let his daughter indulge herself this time.

Once I get my salary, I can take my daughter to buy the BJD doll she's always wanted.

Su Jiani placed the cake on the dining table, tore off the ribbon bow, opened the lid, and excitedly picked up a plastic knife to cut the cake while smiling and asking questions.

"Dad, what's making you so happy?"

Su Luo casually placed her coat on the edge of the sofa, sat down opposite her daughter, and said with a smile.

"Dad will be able to buy you a doll soon."

"Wow, really? But that's so expensive! Did Dad get a raise again?"

The BJD doll she liked cost several thousand yuan.

My father's monthly salary is only a little over 10,000 yuan, and that's in Beijing. Plus, he has to pay off the mortgage. After deducting her tuition, utilities, and living expenses for the two of them, he can't save any money at all.

Su Luo frankly admitted, "My salary hasn't increased, but I've taken on some extra income."

"Wow, that's amazing!"

Su Jianni cut a piece of cake and pushed it in front of Su Luo. She scooped out a big bite with a spoon and put it in her mouth, chewing slowly. The sweet and sour strawberries paired with the light sweet cream made her feel incredibly happy.

Su Luo also started eating the cake, and said proudly, "Of course."

Su Jiani wiped the cream from the corner of her mouth with a tissue and asked.

"I want to go to the aquarium this Saturday, will you come with me?"

Anyway, the teachers don't assign much homework during holidays, and it can be finished in half a day.

Su Luo looked hesitant and politely declined, saying, "Zhou, our company has a team building activity on Saturday. How about I take you next week?"

He almost forgot that during the meeting, Song Lingshan invited the headquarters staff to a trip to Qinhai Bay in order to get closer to the employees.

Su Jianni pouted and said with dissatisfaction, "What about Sunday?"

Isn't there a two-day holiday?

Su Luo said awkwardly, "I... I won't be back until Sunday afternoon."

We need to stay there overnight, since it's quite far away; one day simply isn't enough.

Su Jianni nodded reluctantly, "Okay..."

...

Saturday has arrived.

Company team building activities usually involve taking a bus.

The Song Group is different; Song Lingshan generously chartered a plane.

The reason given was that the distance was too far and taking a bus would be too time-consuming.

But Su Luo wasn't happy because he gets airsick, but he had no choice. He took two motion sickness pills before boarding the plane.

We lined up with our luggage and went through security.

Once on the plane, I was seated in economy class next to Ye Xiaotian.

Seeing Su Luo's listlessness, Ye Xiaotian was very excited. He took out a box of mints from his pocket, poured a few into his hand, and handed them to Su Luo.

"Two, please."

Su Luo shook her head. "No need."

He gets dizzier the more he eats; it's better for him to be on an empty stomach.

Ye Xiaotian stood up, looked around, and saw that Zhang Ming was sitting at the back, quite far away from him, and that his colleagues were all people he got along well with. So he sat down with peace of mind, leaned closer to Su Luo, and spoke without any hesitation.

"By the way, I've been wondering why Zhang Ming hasn't been bothering you anymore? Wasn't he on good terms with the boss? Why has he been keeping such a low profile lately?"

"I don't know either."

Su Luo couldn't figure it out either. These past few days, Zhang Ming had been very well-behaved, stopped picking on him, and was working more diligently than before.

Ye Xiaotian lowered his voice and whispered.

"Which of our leaders is he dating? Apart from General Manager Song, I haven't seen any other good-looking leaders in our company! Logically speaking, he's not short of money, so he shouldn't be compromising himself."

Ye Xiaotian laughed and said, "He can't hear me. Besides, he's already been rejected by the public. Even if he could hear me, what could he do? Am I afraid of him?"

Su Luo nodded slightly, "That's true."

Ye Xiaotian lowered his voice and whispered.

"Who do you think his lover is? Apart from President Song, I haven't seen any good-looking women among our company's leaders! Could this guy be willing to sleep with an old lady for money?!"

Although he doesn't usually see that many leaders, since the Song Group has many branches, he has seen almost all of them at the annual meeting. They are all old-fashioned and unappealing.

Su Luo was slightly taken aback, and the image of the woman in a kimono who was being intimate with Zhang Ming in a luxury car flashed through his mind that day at the company entrance.

Although we were quite far apart and I couldn't see the woman's face clearly through the car window, her silhouette suggested she was a beauty.
