Meanwhile, in another room that was separated from Chen Lu's office by only one wall.

Where is your personal bodyguard?

As soon as Liu Yan was helped to sit down by Liang Zhirou, she immediately asked Lin Miaomiao.

She was referring to Xiao Jie, the girl who followed Lin Miaomiao around like a little shadow all the time, so she had a deep impression of her.

"I broke up with my boyfriend and just got back after crying." Lin Miaomiao sighed softly. She was still a little worried, but Xiao Jie didn't let anyone follow her when she left.

Seeing that Liu Yan still wanted to ask, she continued to explain first: "After all, it's a long-distance relationship. Her boyfriend worked in his hometown after graduation. It seems that he got the job through connections. The salary and benefits are very good, so he has been urging her to marry him."

“But Xiaojie’s home is not in that province, and that place is remote. Art majors can’t find any decent jobs there, let alone jobs with our salary.”

"Her boyfriend's family kept pressuring her to get married. When her boyfriend got annoyed by their pressure, he started pressuring her instead. But Xiaojie didn't want to go too soon. Because of this, they argued a lot, and the guy broke up with her."

Xiaojie now earns 20,000 yuan a month after deducting social insurance and housing fund contributions. To be honest, she might not be willing to leave if she were in her shoes.

Aside from those who were maliciously poached in the past, Polaris has a very low turnover rate.

They all knew very well that it would be difficult to find a better boss than Chen Lu after they left.

Chen Lu may be a bit of a scoundrel, but his abilities and leadership are both excellent. The refrigerator that always has drinks and all kinds of nice chairs, although Chen Lu swindled them from the school, are ultimately for their use.

We never have a disgusting corporate culture, and overtime is paid at triple the normal rate. Who would want to leave?

"These kinds of things... it's hard to say who's to blame right away. If things don't go well through negotiation, it just means our connection wasn't strong enough."

Lin Miaomiao sighed again; this was one of the reasons why she had never wanted to be in a relationship.

Liu Yan crossed her arms and snorted disdainfully, "I still think this guy deserves a beating, right, Zhirou?"

"ah?"

Liang Zhirou seemed to have just woken from a dream, and whispered in agreement, "Yes, right..."

Liang Zhirou felt that she couldn't figure out all the details as quickly as Chen Lu could.

She just felt that Chen Lu would never be like Xiao Jie's boyfriend, completely disregarding her personal wishes, and she wouldn't hesitate like Xiao Jie; she would definitely run towards Chen Lu without hesitation.

So forget about distinguishing who's right and who's wrong; she simply doesn't understand these two people.

Liu Yan was amused by her reaction and smiled. "If you can decide on the proposal, then do it quickly. I can only play along with you guys for the next two months. I might not be able to come out later."

Liang Zhirou, who had been mostly silent, slowly raised her head again upon hearing this, "Where do you think would be a good place to propose...?"

Jiang Chao's office immediately fell silent.

After a long while.

"We'll definitely go to the park where you two met as kids," Lin Miaomiao suddenly said. "You just need to be direct with him and say: 'I want to marry you,' and then you'll just say yes or no!"

She still finds it sweet; the idea of ​​them making a lifelong vow at the place where they met by chance when they were young and naive, or even just children, is incredibly romantic.

When they first met, they were still innocent children, and then they were separated by thousands of miles for nearly ten years.

Now that little girl is actually preparing to propose.

Lin Miaomiao just wanted to roll around on the ground right now.

“That works too. If he dares not agree, I’ll beat him to death for you.” Liu Yan pinched her chin and nodded slightly, seemingly in agreement.

After she finished speaking, she touched her already swollen belly again, "I don't know if this counts as a group fight."

Liang Zhirou slowly shook her head.

"That would be too obvious; Chen Lu would definitely guess it..."

"Let's go to the movie theater! Propose after the movie, I've seen it in TV dramas!" Lin Miaomiao continued.

Liu Yan disagreed, "It doesn't feel quite right. How about the beach? We can go on a trip together. Just imagine, the moment the sun rises over the horizon and the sunlight begins to fall on the sea... Wouldn't that be incredibly romantic to propose?"

Listening to the chatter among the group, Liang Zhirou quietly pursed her lips.

Everything seems so troublesome...

Can't we just ask Chen Lu if he can marry her?

She never intended for anything romantic; she just wanted to marry Chen Lu.

That's enough.

"Xiao Mo said she thought the amusement park was nice."

After listening to their discussion for a while, Liang Zhirou glanced at her phone, then looked up and muttered to herself.

The girl's voice was quickly drowned out by the chatter.

Fortunately, the two people present were already used to her usual speaking volume, so they both heard her.

"I think either one is fine, just pick one." Liu Yan said to Liang Zhirou, "Just prepare yourself mentally, and we'll start making arrangements once you're ready."

Liang Zhirou clenched her fingers and whispered, "I want it to be as soon as possible."

The room remained quiet for a long time.

"Aren't you nervous anymore?" Liu Yan pinched Lin Miaomiao's cheek to make sure she wasn't dreaming.

This person had previously stammered that he didn't dare to come.

Liang Zhirou glanced at the doorway subconsciously, her mind filled with Xiao Jie's heartbroken expression, and then slowly exhaled.

"I...I'm not nervous."

Her tone was unusually firm, and her two hands, which were hanging at her sides, were trembling slightly:

"We can always do it tomorrow."

......

That night.

The sound of running water came from the bathroom, the bathroom door was closed, and warm light shone from inside.
