Fengrong Group.
On this day, the higher-ups of Fengrong always took every opportunity to sneak peeks at their BOSS.
because--
Their boss was carrying a hot water bottle for the first time ever, even during meetings, and it was a Winnie the Pooh style one!
This was quite out of character for him. Everyone exchanged glances and messages, and they all saw disbelief in each other's eyes.
Shortly after the meeting ended, the door to the president's office was pushed open.
"Brother, come with me to eat Sichuan food today. There's a newly opened restaurant that's supposed to be pretty good." Gu Feiyang swaggered in and sat down in Murong Xiao's seat.
Murong Xiao was standing by the window, replying to Xiang Jin's text message. Hearing the voice, he looked up and glanced at him indifferently: "I'm not going."
"Come on, bro! If you don't go, I'm not playing with you anymore! I'm angry!" Gu Feiyang pouted and started to act spoiled.
Su Ming silently watched the scene, thinking to himself that the only person in the world who could offend his BOSS was Gu Feiyang.
Gu Feiyang was Murong Xiao's childhood playmate. Back then, he was still in the Feng family and was known as Feng Jianian.
Gu Feiyang was the child of his aunt's family and often came to the Feng family to play. Murong Xiao loved peace and quiet since he was a child and had a withdrawn personality. All the other children were afraid of him, but Gu Feiyang was oblivious to the danger and stayed by his side, insisting on clinging to him.
Murong Xiao's tolerance for him seems to be higher than that of ordinary people.
“Young Master Gu, I have an international meeting in ten minutes, so I can’t go out with you,” Su Ming explained.
"Meetings, meetings, meetings all day long, can't you have fewer meetings? And you said you'd find me my white moonlight, what a liar!" Gu Feiyang slammed the documents on the table, extremely indignant.
He had a girl he had liked since he was a child. That girl saved his life, and he vowed to find her. But after so many years, it's like searching for a needle in a haystack, and he still hasn't found a single clue.
"If you can't find it, go look for it. What are you making a scene here for?" Murong Xiao frowned, his anger rising.
"You said you'd help me find it! You broke your promise! Huh, what's this?" Gu Feiyang's eyes lit up, and he pulled out a hot water bottle hidden under the documents, starting to examine it curiously.
"Winnie the Pooh... Bro, where did you come from?"
Gu Feiyang's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. How could there be such a strange thing in his brother's office!
Winnie the Pooh's hot water bottle, a hot water bottle?!
"Go back home if you have nothing to do!" Murong Xiao snatched the hot water bottle, his face darkening further.
"I only glanced at it, you stingy guy." Gu Feiyang sighed. "The day I met my white moonlight, she was wearing a dress with Winnie the Pooh on it... Bro, let me take another look, maybe this hot water bottle is a clue!"
Murong Xiao couldn't listen anymore.
He pointed to the door: "In ten seconds, either get out, or I'll drag you out."
Gu Feiyang looked aggrieved: "...Then I'll just leave."
After saying that, he obediently walked towards the door, singing as he went: "Little cabbage, turning yellow in the field, Dad doesn't love you, brother doesn't care, brother doesn't care, you're so pitiful~"
She even choked up a few times when singing the most tragic parts.
Murong Xiao pinched the bridge of his nose.
After the international conference, Murong Xiao put on a suit and prepared to head to the banquet venue.
"Send more people to investigate Gu Feiyang's matter, and expand the scope of the search, especially to girls of the same age in the nearby villages and towns." He frowned, seemingly displeased.
"yes."
"The boss really cares about Young Master Gu," Su Ming said with a smile. Although he scolded him, he had put in a lot of effort for him behind the scenes. When Gu Feiyang was still a student, Murong Xiao often worried about his studies.
Murong Xiao snorted coldly: "Next time he comes, just throw him out!"
After saying that, he walked straight out of the office.

Xiang Jin went home with a smile.
Today she met with Bai Ningshuang, who said that a courier company didn't care that she had been to prison and was willing to hire her as a sorting clerk. Her main job would be to collect and organize warehouse information, sort and move packages, and it was a job that didn't require much talking.
Xiang Jin was overjoyed. She went to the company for an interview with Ning Shuang and passed the interview successfully.
I can officially start work tomorrow!
Although her salary was only 2,500 yuan and she didn't even get performance bonuses, she was already very satisfied!
"Ah Jin, what a pity." Bai Ningshuang sighed repeatedly as she left the courier company.
Xiang Jin, a former prodigy from Huadu No. 1 Middle School who was admitted to Columbia University, ranked number one in the world for arts, with near-perfect scores in both academics and arts, now works as a scavenger in a dark and dirty warehouse.
That's such a pity.
Fate is so unfair, who can we turn to for justice?
"Shuangshuang, I'm already very content." Xiang Jin gestured in sign language.
Finding a job is already a pleasant surprise, and she will definitely work hard to achieve a better tomorrow.
She refuses to be defeated by life; even if the road ahead is dark, she will be her own light.
"Ah Jin, I believe you will definitely achieve great success."
"Shuangshuang, thank you." Xiang Jin held Bai Ningshuang's hand, expressing his heartfelt gratitude.
Shuangshuang comes from an ordinary family, and she earned her current job through her own hard work. It must have taken a lot of effort for them to help her get this job. The kindness shown to someone at this time is even more precious than offering help in a crisis; she will remember it for the rest of her life.
"Ah Jin, I should be thanking you."
Back in junior high, if Ah Jin hadn't risked her life to lure those thugs away, she probably would have been dead long ago.
From that moment on, she vowed that she would be the older sister in this life and do everything in her power to protect Xiang Jin, just as she had protected herself back then.
……………………
When Xiang Jin returned to Fengjia Village, he found that Feng Jianian had already returned.
"Where did you go? Why are you only coming back now?" He pouted, his tone seemingly a little dissatisfied.
"Jianian, I found a job." She told him eagerly, her fox-like eyes gleaming.
"Really? What are you doing?" It was rare to see her so happy, and his mood inexplicably improved as well.
Now it was Xiang Jin's turn to be speechless.
In his presence, she was still the eldest daughter of the Xiang family. With such an impressive resume, how could she possibly work as a courier at a delivery company? It was simply illogical.
She couldn't tell him her true identity, so she had to keep this job a secret.
“It’s just a job. In the future, the two of us will be earning money to support the family, and the burden on your shoulders will be lighter.” Her eyes shone even brighter.
When someone offered to share his burden for the first time, he couldn't help but smile: "Ah Qi's shoulders will have to bear a thousand pounds." After all, Feng Rong has hundreds of thousands of employees.
"What, is your salary low?" Xiang Jin asked in sign language.
He thought for a moment: "Salary...it seems there isn't any, only some subsidies." Fengrong Group has never paid him a salary.
Huh? No salary?
It seems she needs to work even harder, Xiang Jin thought to herself.
