Chapter 380 The Turtle in the Wishing Well



The layout of the lower layer of the wooden box is no different from that of the upper layer.

A little ceramic boy is lying quietly among a pile of plush stuffing.

Yan Xianjue felt that the face of the little porcelain boy was extremely familiar, so familiar that he could see it in the mirror every morning when he washed his face.

If it weren't for the pear in his hand, Yan Xianjue would really doubt the extent of his family's prank on him.

Yan Xianjue took a deep breath, and under the burning gaze of the whole family, he gently picked up the ceramic little boy from the box and placed it together with the ceramic little girl.

Then he snorted and commented, "Childish."

Yan Ci: "Before you say that, you should lower the corners of your mouth first."

Yan Xianjue gave him a look of disdain, then decisively looked away.

I took out my cell phone and took a picture of the ceramic figurine on the coffee table.

Shen Fangli replied quickly, obviously not having started work yet: "Why is there so many people in your photo?"

Yan Xianjue: "Early this morning, before we even had dinner, we all gathered around to look at your gift. What do you think? Are you surprised? Are you surprised?"

Shen Fangli: “…”

It’s hard to say whether it was surprising or not, but it was really scary.

She decisively gave up discussing this topic with Yan Xianjue and asked him instead, "Isn't it cute?"

Yan Xianjue touched his conscience and said, "They are cute, but why did you give me both of them? Shouldn't we each have one?"

Shen Fangli replied as if it was a matter of course: "Because I don't want them to be separated."

Yan Ci exclaimed, "Yan Xianjue, why are you blushing?"

Yan Xianjue rolled his eyes and said, "Get lost."

"Tsk." Yan Ci was unwilling to be outdone.

Before a new round of family war broke out, Mother Yan decisively interrupted her two sons from casting spells: "Clean up, it's almost time for dinner."

Yan Xianjue: "Okay."

He put the two porcelain figurines back into the wooden box. When he was about to take the box upstairs to put it in his collection room, he suddenly turned around and reminded Yan Ci: "Don't forget to send the golden bear over."

Yan Ci: "...Send, send, send. I'll move it over to you now, okay?"

Yan Ci stood up speechlessly. It was obvious that Yan Xianjue was not short of money, so why was he always thinking about exploiting him?

This bear was one of the prizes he won in a competition. The organizer's sponsor was a chain of gold shops, which prepared a golden bear for each player on the championship team.

It is about half a person's height, but it is not solid. It is hollow inside and only has a layer of gold on the surface.

It's not worth much, so it's not worth Yan Xianjue's concern.

Yan Wan pointed out the reason: "He doesn't need that little thing, he just likes to steal your things."

Banquet speech: "..."

Yan Ci: "Sister, sometimes there is really no need to explain."

Yan Wan shrugged and ignored his brother's protest.

After Yan Xianjue returned to his room, he received another message from Shen Fangli: "By the way, the little leopard and the pear can both be detached, and the two little figures' hands can be placed together, and the little leopard's tail can be wrapped around the pear."

Yan Xianjue suspected that Shen Fangli was teasing him again. This was a ceramic figurine, not a moving puppet.

But under Shen Fangli's insistence, he still tried it with some doubts.

Then I found out, it really works.

He really didn't expect that two ceramic figures could do so many things.

So I took a few photos with my mobile phone and posted them on WeChat Moments.

Almost as soon as he sent it, he saw Yanci's reply: "Tsk, what a scheming couple!"

Yan Xianjue complained in his heart, is this the kind of thing Yan Ci's hand speed is used for?

Mother Yan: "Come down and eat first, then play after dinner."

Ji Xi: "Come to work overtime? Come to work overtime? Come to work overtime?"

Ignoring Ji Xi and Yan Ci, Yan Xianjue simply replied to Yan's mother: "I'll be right there."

Although he ignored Ji Xi, Yan Xianjue still came to the company on Monday two days later.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw a turtle crawling all over the floor.

Yan Xianjue: “…”

Yan Xianjue said in disbelief: "What the hell is this?!"

The receptionist gave an awkward yet polite smile: "Mr. Xiaoyan, this is the pet that screenwriter Lei brought here. Its name is Turtle in the Wishing Well."

Yan Xianjue: “…”

Yan Xianjue looked at Ji Xi helplessly: "What's going on?"

Ji Xi: "It's the one that Mr. Lei bought."

Yan Xianjue held his forehead with his hand and said, "Other companies' pets are either kittens or puppies. Are we going to get a turtle?"

And this name, are you serious?

Ji Xi thought for a moment and said, "At least he lives long enough. Maybe he can send me away."

Yan Xianjue: "...tell me something less hellish."

Ji Xi shrugged: "Okay, the interview is scheduled for an hour later, and Mr. Wang Peter is on his way from the airport."

Yan Xianjue nodded: "Okay."

That's why he came to the company today.

Things went much more smoothly than any of them had imagined.

Yan Yian was just extending an olive branch to the other party on behalf of Yan Xianjue, and the other party agreed almost immediately.

This made Yan Xianjue feel a little strange.

So during the interview, he directly asked about his doubts.

"You have a place on Wall Street, why are you willing to work in our small company?"

Wang Pete's English name is Pete, but he speaks fluent Chinese and has chosen a Chinese surname for himself.

In response to Xianjue's question, he was very frank: "I'm looking for someone."

"Um?"

Yan Xianjue had a bad feeling in his heart. Could it be that this person has already fallen in love with the heroine?

No matter how capable the other party is, Yan Xianjue will never let him work in his company.

Wang Peter's next words made Yan Xianjue breathe a sigh of relief: "More than ten years ago, I received help from a Chinese boy."

"I want to find him and repay him."

Yan Xianjue breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was not the heroine.

But he still asked: "What would you do if your personal affairs conflicted with the interests of the company?"

Wang Pete answered without hesitation: "I am a person with professional ethics, so I will resign first."

Yan Xianjue: “…”

Very good, it seems that they are indeed the same person in the plot.

I just don’t know why he fell in love with the heroine later in the plot, and who was the person who helped him?

Ji Xi originally had no hope for Yan Xianjue's question; he just wanted Yan Xianjue to recognize the person.

Don’t let Yan Xianjue come to the company on a whim one day, as I thought he sold the company to a foreigner.

So when Ji Xi heard that Yan Xianjue was hardly asking any questions related to the company's business, he didn't say anything.

Only after Yan Xianjue said he had finished asking questions did he start asking the other party what he thought about overtime.
