Wang Yitong was very happy to hear Xu Chengwei's call. Many things in the company recently, including the opening of Panda Tea Cafe, were thanks to his help. "Chengwei, I'm sorry, a friend from Chengdu came to see me last night, and I have to take him out for dinner tonight."
"Since I'm your friend, why don't you come over for dinner and have some fun with me?" Xu Chengwei continued.
After hearing this, Wang Yitong refused and said, "Forget it, I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow night! Thank you. You go ahead and get busy."
After hanging up the phone, Wang Yitong came to the coffee shop and found Lin Mu working hard in a corner of the store.
Lin Mu saw Wang Yitong coming over after class and checked the time. "Sorry, I got so busy that I forgot the time. Give me a minute and I'll clean up right away."
"Don't worry, you go ahead and do your work. Let's eat nearby and then go back to rest. You didn't get enough rest last night. You have to rest well tonight so that you can return to Chengdu tomorrow and resume your work state." Wang Yitong continued.
After that, Wang Yitong took Lin Mu to Bai's Restaurant. Wang Yitong said to Lin Mu, "This restaurant was recommended to me by a classmate. It's a Shanghainese restaurant that's been open for 39 years. Their dishes, such as braised pork liver with soy sauce, braised pork with preserved vegetables, braised small yellow croaker with tofu, and scallion oil noodles, are widely acclaimed. You should try the local cuisine and experience the unique flavors."
"Then I have to try it even more. Since I started school, you know I mostly eat in the school cafeteria. Now that I'm working, the company also provides a cafeteria, so I have fewer opportunities to eat out."
After that, Wang Yitong immediately ordered some recruiting dishes. "You're working at Huawei now, how do you feel?"
Hearing Wang Yitong's concern, Lin Mu relaxed his tense state. "It's quite stressful just starting out at the company, and there's a lot to do. There are many excellent seniors and colleagues, and there's so much to learn. Your good friend Fan Feifei's boyfriend also works at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, and I've heard her talk about it before."
After hearing this, Wang Yitong said to Lin Mu seriously, "This is normal. It takes time for people to start working after graduation. People who can adapt quickly within a week or a month are generally competent for the job. Besides, you are already very talented and have a strong ability to understand. I believe you will only get better and better in the future. Your current salary is just your starting point. I believe that with your hard work and ability, you will be able to get a high salary in the future and realize your dreams."
Thinking of her good friend Fan Feifei, Wang Yitong felt a little envious. They had been good friends and deskmates in junior high, and they had both been in the experimental class during their first semester of high school. Later, they were divided into different majors: Wang Yitong studied liberal arts, while Fan Feifei studied science. Ultimately, she passed the entrance exam for a third-tier university, but after repeating a year, she finally passed the entrance exam for a second-tier university. Wang Yitong, facing her dislike for liberal arts, ultimately chose a junior college and didn't repeat.
While relocating to the county seat for her second year, Fan Feifei met her current boyfriend. They studied together in Chengdu and eventually got together. Both sets of parents approved of their relationship, and Fan Feifei has now been accepted as a civil servant in her hometown. They're just waiting for her boyfriend to graduate so they can register for marriage.
Wang Yitong continued, "I've also heard about Feifei's situation. She came to see me during my pregnancy and after my miscarriage. I envy them both. They're from the same county, and they have a stable relationship."
After saying this, Wang Yitong felt depressed and subconsciously touched her belly. She thought of the child she had miscarried.
Lin Mu heard what Wang Yitong said and saw her loss and movements. He felt a little uncomfortable inside. "I'm sorry, Tongtong, I shouldn't have mentioned this and reminded you of unhappy things. I only hate why I was so determined to leave and break up. It's my fault that I didn't insist, which caused you so much pain later."
Wang Yitong calmed down after hearing this. "Mumu, none of this has anything to do with you. Even if you hadn't broken up, I don't think we could have lasted long given my situation at the time. The gap was too big. If I were busy working every day and my salary wasn't high, only 2,000 or 3,000 yuan a month, compared to the tens of thousands you make now, there wouldn't be harmony between us over time. When two people are together, the most important thing is to be on equal terms..."
Before Wang Yitong could finish speaking, the waiter brought the dishes and introduced the names of the dishes.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's eat." After saying that, Wang Yitong picked up a piece of braised pork with pickled mustard greens with the serving chopsticks and put it into Lin Mu's bowl.
Lin Mu looked at the braised pork in the bowl and was deeply moved. He knew that Wang Yitong was a kind and considerate girl who always gave him care and support when he needed it most.
Wang Yitong and Lin Mu continued to enjoy their meals. Although Lin Mu found Shanghainese cuisine a bit sweet, he still tried his best to taste every dish. However, despite his efforts to adapt, he still found it difficult to get used to it.
Wang Yitong noticed Lin Mu's expression and asked with concern, "Mumu, are you not used to Shanghai cuisine?"
Lin Mu smiled awkwardly and said, "Yeah, a little. But it's okay, I can try to adapt."
Wang Yitong smiled understandingly and said, "It's okay. If you're not used to it, we can order some other dishes. Or maybe we can go eat Sichuan cuisine next time. You'll probably like it."
Lin Mu looked at Wang Yitong gratefully and said, "Thank you, Tongtong. You are always so considerate."
Wang Yitong smiled and said, "We are friends, no need to be so polite."
After dinner, Wang Yitong and Lin Mu walked out of the restaurant together.
Wang Yitong brought Lin Mu to the Bund in Shanghai. The Bund was ablaze with lights at night, a breathtaking sight. Lin Mu was captivated by the beauty and filled with emotion.
