He Yiyuan sat behind his desk with a chestnut mille-feuille cake and a cup of milk tea in front of him. The soft cake was filled with layers of chestnuts and cream, and the top was sprinkled with a lot of chopped nuts and a whole chestnut garnished on it. The cake was beautiful, but this cake, combined with the milk tea, contained a lot of sugar and calories.
He Yiyuan said, "Sister Tiantian, you invited the people from the business department to have afternoon tea, and you remembered to bring me some. I'm so touched."
Su Tiantian, sitting in the chair in front of the desk, said, "Those people in the sales department are asking me to treat them to afternoon tea. So go ahead. They order and I'll pay. I haven't prepared any for your assistant and secretary because if I treat them, I don't know how many people I'll have to treat."
He Yiyuan took a bite of the chestnut mille-feuille, and the rich chestnut aroma filled his mouth. It tasted good. He took another bite and said, "Brother Jingze, do you know that you are so frugal?"
Su Tiantian wasn't at all awkward: "I know. My family was very poor when I was a child, so everyone in my family saved money when they should. But when it comes to saving money, you're also very frugal. Your performance during the internship was not fake."
He Yiyuan said, "Save money when you should save, and spend money when you should spend. That's what my mother taught me. Secretary Luo, please pour me a cup of tea. You can have this milk tea. I'm fine eating cake, but I don't dare drink too much milk tea. I'm afraid I'll be forced to lose weight like Fourth Brother Lai."
Luo Sisi walked to the desk, took the milk tea, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Yuan, and thank you, Manager Su." Then she went to pour tea.
Su Tiantian said, "Actually, I think you don't eat much and work diligently every day, so why can't you lose weight? You have fair skin and are really cute when you're chubby."
He Yiyuan said: "Children are cute when they are chubby. I am an adult, and this kind of fat is ugly. Look at me, I rarely wear suits because they have to be custom-made to fit me."
Su Tiantian said, "Just make it custom-made. It doesn't have to be expensive, and custom-made clothes fit you perfectly."
After a while, Luo Sisi placed the teacup in front of He Yiyuan: "Young Master Yuan, please have some tea."
He Yiyuan took a sip of tea and said, "Sister Tiantian, Brother Jingze will be here soon, right? As expected, someone who loves you is not afraid of distance. He will come to see you as soon as he has time."
Su Tiantian said: "We are far apart, not really. But we are not close either. He will be here in about 15 minutes."
He Yiyuan looked up and said, "Ayue, you and Secretary Luo will go to the company gate to greet Brother Jingze. Sister Tiantian, do you mind waiting here with me?"
Peng Jianyue said, "I understand, Master Yuan."
Su Tiantian said: "I don't mind."
He Yiyuan said: "Sister Tiantian, did you save afternoon tea for Brother Jingze?"
Su Tiantian said, "I didn't order his copy at all, okay?"
He Yiyuan said, "So, I'm pretty lucky. I got to have afternoon tea."
There was a knock on the door, and Gu Yiyuan asked, "Who is it?"
Vice President Xu's voice came from outside: "Master Yuan, I'm Lao Xu."
Gu Yiyuan smiled: "Brother Xu, come in, the door is not locked."
Vice President Xu pushed open the door and walked into the office with steady steps. He saw Gu Yiyuan and Su Tiantian sitting at their desks, one behind and one in front of them. There was an unfinished chestnut mille-feuille cake on the table. He sighed and said, "Since Young Master Yuan came, Manager Su didn't even treat me to afternoon tea."
Gu Yiyuan said enthusiastically: "Brother Xu, please sit down."
Su Tiantian smiled and said, "Who said we should share happiness and hardship? Who said I have to help Mr. Lai lose weight? Who said I don't have to invite him for afternoon tea in the future?"
