Chapter 193 Legal overtime!

Yan Ruo could only comfort Yan Ma, "Don't worry, it's what he gave me after all, whether it's a lot or a little, it's still my profit."

"That's true. His grandparents are really generous. They gave him two villas at once." Yan's mother sighed, with worry hidden in her eyes.

"It's said that Qi Da is not an equal. No matter how much, it means that Xiao Xu's family is much better off than ours. I'm afraid you will be bullied in the future."

"North City is so far away, and their family is rich. Your father and I won't be able to help you when the time comes."

Yan Ruo took Yan Ma's arm and rested her head on her shoulder.

"Mom, don't worry. Although I don't know the exact amount of Xu Shaoyu's assets, from what I know, he should have dozens of properties, and even more if you include shops."

"If he really dares to bully me in the future, I'll just take his money and run away. At least I'll have enough food and clothing."

"So many?" Yan's mother paused, her expression showing that she was not at all reassured.

"It seems that Xiao Xu's family is even richer than we thought. I'm just afraid that such a wealthy and powerful family won't be something you can just leave if you want to."

Compared to Yan's mother's worry, I don't know what Xu Shaoyu said to Yan's father.

When Yan Ruo turned around, she saw that Yan's father looked relaxed and seemed to be having a very happy conversation.

After returning home, Yan Ruo even found an opportunity to ask Xu Shaoyu, "What did you say to my dad to make him so happy?"

Xu Shaoyu raised his eyebrows, "This is a secret between me and my father-in-law."

"It's too early for you to call me father-in-law."

"It's only a matter of time."

Not finding out what she wanted to know, Yan Ruo decisively sent Xu Shaoyu back to the guest room.

Xu Shaoyu leaned against the door frame with his right hand and asked in a low voice, "We're about to get engaged, why do I still have to sleep in the guest room?"

Yan Ruo smiled with her eyes curved, "As long as you're not married, you have to sleep in the guest room."

Although she said so, when Xu Shaoyu sneaked into the room in the middle of the night, Yan Ru didn't feel strange at all, but just quietly rubbed against his arms.

The custom in Yan Ruo's place is that for an engagement, the man's elders will come to the house with gifts.

Discuss the time for the two young people to hold their wedding, how and where to buy a wedding house, and what support both parents can provide to the two young people...

Then the woman's side will invite close relatives to have a meal together.

The man's side will also send wedding cakes to relatives and friends around him to inform them of the engagement news.

Now that they had finished their meal, Yan's parents agreed. They also promised to go to Beicheng next month to attend the Xu family's engagement party.

For the next period of time, Yan Ruo became busy again.

Previously, when I was in Nancheng, I had done market research with the assistance of Zhao Jie.

What Yan Ruo has to do now is to work with Uncle Zhang to determine the raw material procurement and production standards for the next new product.

At the same time, she is also busy shooting more original materials.

Because Yan Ruo had been in Beicheng for more than a month, her personal video account had not been updated for a long time.

She is also considering hiring an additional employee to be responsible for filming and video editing to ensure the activity of social media accounts.

After all, this is her earliest sales window, and her online sales are pretty good now, so she can't fall behind.

Yan Ruo originally advised Xu Shaoyu to return to South City first, after all, he had a lot of things to do every day.

However, he said that he was fine after resting for one or two months in the hospital last time. It can be imagined that he does not need to go to the company every day.

Just ask Assistant Liu to send the work that needs his handling online.

Yan Ruo could only mourn silently for Special Assistant Liu for two seconds in her heart, and then hurry up to deal with her own affairs.

A week later, she and Xu Shaoyu returned to South City.

After returning to South City, Xu Shaoyu held several consecutive meetings, working overtime until midnight every day. He was determined to catch up on all the work he had missed.

After being busy for several days in a row, we decided to treat Chi Yu to a meal today.

After get off work, Zhao Jie and the others left. Yan Ruo stayed alone in the office, watching the sky gradually darken outside the window. He always felt that the surroundings were too quiet.

I couldn't help but send a message to Xu Shaoyu, [When will the meeting end? ]

I quickly received a reply on my phone: "There's still half an hour left. Come up and sit for a while. I've had someone prepare some snacks for you. Fill your stomach first."

After reading the message, Yan Ruo put away her phone, picked up her bag, and quickly rushed out of the office.

The elevator went directly to the top floor. When she got out of the elevator, she didn't expect Li Rongyi to be waiting for her outside.

Although it was already past the closing time, the Xu Group's office was still bustling with activity because the big boss and a group of leaders were still in a meeting. Yan Ruo suddenly felt like she had returned to the human world.

Sure enough, there were Taishi cakes and water chestnut cakes placed on the coffee table in Xu Shaoyu's office.

"Ms. Yan, Mr. Xu's work is expected to finish in half an hour. If you need anything, you can always contact me."

Yan Ruo nodded, "Thank you, Secretary Li. You can go and get busy first."

When the leadership holds a meeting, the secretariat is actually required to be on standby at all times.

After Li Rongyi left, Yan Ru took out her cell phone which was vibrating from time to time, and sure enough, she was bombarded with messages from Chi Yu.

It turned out that Chi Yu would be delayed for some time today due to temporary work, so he asked them to place the order as soon as they arrived.

However, she also asked me to take a photo of the menu and send it to her so that she could see if there were any dishes she liked.

Yan Ruo replied with amusement, "Xu Shaoyu is also working overtime, so we have to wait for another half an hour. We should be there by about the same time."

Chi Yu seemed very happy. "I never thought that a mere slave like me could enjoy the same overtime benefits as Mr. Xu. What an honor!"

He was speechless. [Yes, you two are both working overtime voluntarily, and you don't get overtime pay.]

One is the boss, who basically treats the company as his home; the other serves the people, and overtime is legal.

Chi Yu said that she was very hurt and replied to Yan Ruo with six points to express her protest.

Yan Ruo was playing with her phone while eating pastries. When Xu Shaoyu returned to the office, Yan Ruo had already eaten half a plate of pastries.

He glanced at it and frowned slightly, "I asked someone to prepare some pastries because I was afraid you were hungry and wanted to fill your stomach. Be careful not to eat too much, or you won't be able to eat later."

Yan Ruo held up the water chestnut cake she had just taken a bite of, "Then should I finish the last piece?"

"Give it to me." Xu Shaoyu walked up to Yan Ruo, bent down, and opened his mouth slightly.

Before his brain could react, Yan Ruo's hand stuffed the water chestnut cake into his mouth.

Later I realized, "I remember you didn't seem to like water chestnut cake."

"That was in the past. It's not bad to eat now."

After saying that, he put the documents on the desk, took the coat off the hanger and hung it on his arm.

He walked to Yan Ruo's side and held out his hand, "Let's go, let's go eat."

Yan Ruo put her hand into his palm without hesitation and said, "Let's go."
