Chapter 24 "Pervert?"
Rich second-generation sassy girl: "Even though I'm in the Maldives right now, I still have to say those two words—"
Rich second-generation sassy girl: "Envious."
Anmi sent a meme of an arrogant cat head.
Tang Cai pressed her for details about where the sausages came from, and An Mi then told her about Dongdong's illness in the group chat.
Tang Cai and Yan Wanqiu had both met Dongdong, and after hearing this, they couldn't help but sigh for a while.
The three chatted for a while, then Tang Cai said she was going to watch TV with her grandmother.
Late Autumn is on vacation in the Maldives with her mother. She said she needs to get up early tomorrow and go to bed early tonight.
Anmi said goodnight to them.
At nine o'clock in the evening, fewer people come to the convenience store; only one person appears occasionally.
Anmi had enjoyed the initial excitement for three hours, but now she felt drowsy and bored.
She swiped open her phone, her fingers switching back and forth between several frequently used apps.
I clicked on each one, but didn't stay on any of them for more than 30 seconds.
Somehow, while swiping around, I accidentally opened a chat window with a man.
Anmi looked at the text on the screen.
The latest record is "The other party retracted a message".
She swung forward a little.
The chat history between the two was very short, ending with just a couple of swipes of the fingers.
The entire record consists of just a few photos and a few words.
When she clicked on the picture, it was the same movie poster that the man had sent her to choose from last time.
Despite the astonishing scale, Anmi's emotions didn't fluctuate as they had last time.
She read through their conversation line by line.
After reading it, I clicked on the other person's profile picture again.
Yan Jinnian's profile picture is a cityscape at night filled with skyscrapers.
The flowing gold and colorful neon lights were kept out by the tall floor-to-ceiling windows.
It's a photo full of technological flair, but perhaps due to the dark tone and the photographer's perspective, Anmi feels that the photo gives off a sense of loneliness.
Yan Jinnian's face appeared in my mind.
She laughed self-deprecatingly.
How could someone like him, who drives a Rolls-Royce and eats meals costing thousands of dollars, possibly be lonely?
He's not some domineering CEO in a novel who needs someone to save him.
He's probably living a life of luxury in America right now, and has long forgotten about her, this insignificant little piece of trash.
Anmi's finger lingered on the words "Tomorrow night at six o'clock, I'll be waiting for you at that spot by the roadside," and she subconsciously glanced towards the gate.
The convenience store is where Yan Jinnian used to park, but now it's empty except for passersby.
Anmi remembered what she had said.
[Let's not see each other again.]
So... they probably really won't see each other again.
The next day.
Anmi didn't wake up until noon.
She got up, ordered takeout, and checked on Dongdong's condition on WeChat.
The young lady said that her frozen skin was slowly recovering, and Anmi sent her a message of encouragement and reassured her that she would take good care of the shop these next few days.
In the afternoon, Anmi stayed on the sofa watching TV series. At six o'clock, she went downstairs to the convenience store to take over her shift.
Today I was much more skilled and things went much more smoothly than yesterday.
After handing over duties to the male staff on the night shift at midnight, Anmi went upstairs to go home.
As soon as I inserted the key into the lock, the door opened from the inside.
"Honey! You're finally back!"
Tang Cai rushed over and gave her a big bear hug.
Anmi was a little surprised: "Still not asleep so late? Aren't you going to work tomorrow?!"
Tomorrow is Monday.
Tang Cai tugged at her arm and said coquettishly, "Go ahead, I'm waiting for you!"
She pushed Anmi to sit down at the dining table.
"Look! Dried sweet potatoes and candied fruit, my grandma dried them."
"The braised beef, fried fish, and this stew were all made by my grandma."
"The chili sauce was made by my grandma."
"And this, the one you said was delicious last time, I specially asked my grandma to make it for you."
"Thank you, Cai Cai! Thank you, Grandma!"
Anmi was so moved by the huge feast on the table that she burst into tears.
She hadn't eaten yet.
There's a box of leftover rice from lunchtime takeout in the fridge.
Anmi heated it up in the microwave, and Tang Cai put some braised beef and fried fish into a bowl for her, and added a spoonful of chili sauce, instantly turning the takeout into a farmhouse meal.
While Anmi was eating, Tang Cai asked her, "Mizi, where's your bag?"
Anmi chewed a piece of beef: "Don't even mention it."
She described to Tang Cai the embarrassing situation of her bag breaking while buying milk tea.
After listening, Tang Cai touched her nose: "That's outrageous! A thief in broad daylight!"
"Exactly! And he was carrying a knife, how dangerous! Looking back now, I should have called the police."
Tang Cai chuckled: "So what did you do next?"
Anmi paused, her voice softening, "Later, Mr. Yan bought me a new one."
"He bought you a bag?"
Tang Cai's eyes lit up instantly.
What brand is it?
It seems her plan worked.
Anmi went to the convenience store today without her bag, so she went back to her room, took out her handbag, and handed it to Tang Cai.
Tang Cai took it: "The quality looks good, but the brand..."
She frowned; the logo didn't match any of the famous brands she knew.
"How much?" she asked.
Anmi picked up the bowl again: "Thirty-nine yuan and ninety cents."
"ha? ? ?"
Anmi was startled by her suddenly increased volume.
Before her ears could even adjust, Tang Cai started exaggerating again: "This guy drives a Rolls-Royce and gives you a bag that costs 39.9 yuan?"
"These days, even beggars aren't treated like this. A pair of underwear costs more than 39.9 yuan!"
Anmi stared blankly at her: "39.9 yuan can buy four pairs of underwear on Taobao."
"..." Tang Cai glared at her. "In short, this old man's Rolls-Royce is definitely rented. He's a liar who wants to take advantage of you but doesn't want to spend the money. You must cut off all ties with him immediately!"
Anmi silently chewed a couple of mouthfuls of rice, her mouth bulging: "It's already over..."
"Huh?" Tang Cai sat down. "What did you say?"
Anmi glanced at her and said, "I told him yesterday that we shouldn't see each other anymore."
"You...!" Tang Cai wanted to say that she did the right thing, but she held back when she saw An Mi's obviously drooping lips.
She added cautiously, "Honey, why do you seem unhappy? You haven't really fallen for him, have you? You've developed feelings for him?"
Anmi shook her head: "No."
That man tricked her with such a ridiculous excuse that only a moron would believe, and the laughable thing is that she actually believed it... It's totally her embarrassing past!
She wouldn't fall for him just because they watched two movies, had two meals, and kissed each other a few times until she was weak in the waist and legs and cried!
Absolutely not!
Anmi poked at the rice in her bowl: "You're right, he's a liar, so let's not mention him again."
Tang Cai frowned.
Something's not right!
Something's very wrong!
Mizi's current state perfectly embodies that of an innocent young girl whose feelings have been deceived by a scumbag!
What heinous thing did Old Deng from that car rental shop do to An Xiaomi? How did he turn her from a cheerful, energetic calico kitten into a drowning, helpless little monster?
You damn old man! Give me back my An Xiaomi!
Tang Cai grew angrier the more she thought about it, blaming it all on the 'Yan Jinnian' her best friend had mentioned.
While Anmi was washing the dishes, she picked up her phone from the table.
She knew Anmi's phone password, and Anmi also knew hers; they had no secrets.
She found Yan Jinnian's WeChat account, and as soon as she opened the chat, she saw those several obscene posters.
Oh my god!
What the heck is this?
His grandma's triangular basket is all gone!
Tang Cai almost rolled her eyes so hard they went straight over her head.
Vulgar!
Absolutely disgusting!
She became even more certain that Chun Chun was a perverted old man who harassed women.
Tang Cai went all out, her mind brimming with profanities.
Fingers flew across the keyboard.
She's determined to send that old man's entire family flying to the heavens today!
The Empire State Building in New York.
The Yan family and the representatives from the American company sat on either side of the long table.
After a year of negotiations and maneuvering, the project has finally entered the final decision-making stage.
This collaboration will not only elevate the Yan family's reputation domestically, but will also give them a significant place in the global economic landscape.
Secretary Jack stood quietly behind Yan Jinnian, unable to hide his excitement.
The head of the American company is speaking.
He glanced at the time; there were only five minutes left until the final contract signing.
Jack glanced at the boss sitting in front of him.
Her suit was impeccably tailored, her black hair was neatly styled, and you could feel her elegance and sexiness just by looking at her from behind.
At the peak of his career, at the peak of his looks, and having remained chaste and celibate for so many years without ever getting close to women—at the peak of his character, this man is like a Himalayas!
My envy of my boss reached its peak as a dog.
I was so envious...
Huh?
Why did the boss suddenly pick up his phone?
No, boss, we're in a meeting right now!
You're checking WeChat in such a serious setting?!
Boss, didn't you see that American guy over there staring at you?
Why are you getting so engrossed in watching?
Jack was extremely anxious. His usually calm and composed boss had made such a basic mistake at this critical juncture.
Will the other company just storm out on the spot? No way!
My gaze swept across the boss's phone screen, and from his angle, I could just see the text in his WeChat chat box.
Then, because he was reading so fast, by the time Jack realized what he had read, it was already too late.
"Old Deng...sleazy...stingy...disgusting..."
"...loading cargo...pervert...groper"
[Get lost... Go to hell... Shameless...]
[...impotence...rotting...childlessness]
Jack: !!!
What's going on?!
Is his boss really this kind of person in private?!
A pervert?
Impotence?
Jack was so shocked that he involuntarily covered his mouth.
To hell with the pinnacle!
To hell with being averse to women!
His boss turned out to be just an ordinary guy!
