Sky Department Store.
Sisters Zhong Tingyue, He Yi, and Yang Meina strolled hand in hand through the streets. The three beautiful women, each with their own unique charm, attracted the attention of those around them.
"How come you have time to attend the girls' gathering today?" He Yi asked.
Zhong Tingyue shrugged: "Come whenever you have time."
Today is the three sisters' 'bestie day'.
The three used to get together often, but as they each found their partners, the gatherings became less frequent.
"By the way, how far have things progressed between you and Chang Shen?" Zhong Tingyue asked.
"What step? They're almost kissing..." Yang Meina said proudly, but then her face fell. "I want to give up."
Chang Shen is like a rock in a latrine, smelly and hard.
Such a rare and extraordinary creature is hard to find in this world.
Last time, regarding that birthday incident, she thought she was trying to get closer to Chang Shen, but in hindsight, she was overthinking it.
Chang Shen continued to treat her with the same normal attitude.
"Is your heart really made of knives?!" Yang Meina couldn't help but ask.
Chang Shen glanced at her indifferently: "The heart is composed of the walls, atria, ventricles..."
Oh my god!
How can there be such bizarre people in the world!
God, were you out of your mind when you created humans?
And I'm so pathetic, I actually like his cold attitude towards me.
Zhong Tingyue and He Yi exchanged glances: "Yang Meina, you're really despicable!"
“I don’t deny it,” Yang Meina nodded.
Zhong Tingyue looked at He Yi and asked, "You seem to have something on your mind?"
He Yi's brows relaxed slightly: "Recently, my son Wu Di has been coming home very late, and he goes straight to sleep after getting home. Is something wrong with him?"
"Or perhaps... he has a mistress on the side?"
Yang Meina laughed dismissively: "If Wu Di has a mistress, then there are no good men in the world. You're too anxious."
Zhong Tingyue nodded.
He Yi thought about it.
That's true.
She unconditionally trusted her husband.
... ...
Under the cover of night.
In the jewelry store, Wu Di watched as the craftsman 'Cheng Li' designed a wedding ring for Chu Fang. The latter wrote and drew, and an exquisite ring appeared on the paper. But Wu Di shook his head, crumpled the paper into a ball, and threw it into the trash can.
“It’s good,” Wu Di said.
“We should strive for excellence in everything we do, especially since your friend paid so much money,” Cheng Li replied, then asked, “Did you learn anything?”
Wu Di smiled and said, "You are a master in the industry, while I am just an unknown designer."
"Are you having some troubles lately?" Cheng Li asked.
“A little,” Wu Di replied, then honestly added, “I’ve encountered some problems at work. I used to aspire to be a design master like you, incorporating aesthetics and perspectives into my designs.”
"But... I found that it was not easy, or rather, very difficult. I could only do ordinary design work. And now, with the current economic downturn, high work pressure, and reduced wages, I feel increasingly lost."
Cheng Li smiled and said, "Feeling lost is a good thing. Only when you feel lost can you have the energy to think about what the future holds."
"By the way, why didn't you take on this design job? It's a million-dollar deal."
Wu Di shook his head: "I'm not capable enough to design a ring that meets Chu Fang's requirements. Besides, I don't want any financial ties with Chu Fang."
He knew, of course, that Chu could hand over the business to him if he simply asked, but he didn't do so.
Just then, Wu Di's phone rang. He answered it with a bow and scrape, then hung up and sighed.
"The client is not satisfied with the design, and they have to drag us back to make changes even after work. Teacher Cheng, I'll go first and come back another day."
"Okay." Cheng Li nodded.
I walked out of the jewelry store.
Wu Di stretched, "So tired..."
... ...
A private restaurant on the Bund in Shanghai.
Zhong Tingyue attended a gathering with her best friends, leaving Chu Fang and Zhong Rou behind.
My sister-in-law looked at the menu and exclaimed, "Wow, it's so expensive!"
This private kitchen is particularly famous within a small circle of friends, known for its high prices, fresh ingredients, and exceptional service...
The sister-in-law said, "Brother-in-law, I can't afford it."
Chu Fang: "Do you think I'd let you pay the bill?"
Zhong Rou stroked her chin, thought for a few seconds, and said, "Brother-in-law, give me cash instead, I'm not eating."
His lips twitched.
Chu Fang ordered several specialty dishes, and Zhong Rou followed the waiter eagerly into the kitchen.
Zhong Rou suddenly realized that the profit margin of the catering business was much higher than that of her street stall.
A simple stir-fried vegetable dish can cost several thousand yuan – that's outrageous profiteering!
She wanted to learn how others run their shops.
Not long after, his sister-in-law returned, and Chu Fang asked, "Did you learn anything?"
"I've learned something!" Zhong Rou nodded emphatically. "You have to know how to pretend! Pretend to be sophisticated and high-class, because there are plenty of scumbags in the world anyway."
Speaking of which, let me add: "Of course, brother-in-law, I wasn't talking about you."
You don't need to add anything... Chu Fang was speechless.
The two were eating when someone suddenly sent him a message. He looked at the message and raised an eyebrow.
A birthday greeting to him, wishing him a happy birthday tomorrow.
I'm almost twenty-five in the blink of an eye.
"Brother-in-law, who sent you the message?"
Chu Fang casually replied, "Harassment message."
After finishing their meal, the two went home.
"Wuhu..." As soon as I got home, my sister-in-law went crazy, chasing the tabby cat all over the house.
After catching the tabby cat, I taped it to the window and then taught it the 'Eight Honors and Eight Shames of the Cat World'.
They take pride in physical strength and vigor, and are ashamed of flattery and obsequiousness...
Chu Fang was speechless.
This sister-in-law is smart, but she just doesn't use her intelligence for good.
He sat on the sofa, lost in thought: "Tomorrow is my birthday, I'm twenty-five, not young anymore, what should I do for my birthday party?"
"Should we invite relatives and friends? Or just have a simple birthday banquet? Or should we splurge and serve some delicacies...?"
This is a difficult problem.
Click.
The door opened, and Zhong Tingyue entered, wearing a dark gray coat over a light, soft, and comfortable undershirt.
She wore light blue jeans, which made her legs look incredibly long, slender, and beautiful.
He appeared relaxed and casual.
"Zhong! Rou!" Zhong Tingyue saw her cat pressed against the window and glared at her.
"My God!"
Upon hearing this, Zhong Rou turned around and ran back to her room, closing the door tightly.
"Waaah~~~" Zhong Tingyue rescued the kitten, which looked pitiful in her arms. While comforting the kitten, she said to Chu Fang:
"You don't even care about it."
Chu Fang's pupils widened: "I don't care?"
I'd love for that cat to die!
