"You don't need to be nervous or prepare anything. Just be fine. The president doesn't want you to bother him."
"I understand, Assistant Zhou. Arrange it immediately."
The phone call ended, and the person in charge immediately arranged a luxurious private room, fully stocked with fruits, drinks, and alcoholic beverages...
When everyone arrived, this was the scene that greeted them. Li Mei's eyes widened in shock, and she ran over to see it.
After looking around, Li Mei jogged back and whispered in An Yiruo's ear:
"An'an, your boyfriend is way too impressive!"
"Everyone, please don't stand, please sit down."
Instead of replying to Li Mei directly, An Yiruo invited everyone to take their seats.
Looking at the luxurious private room in front of her, An Yiruo couldn't help but smile wryly as she glanced at Mo Jingchen.
Mo Jingchen shrugged, admitting that he himself was unaware of the situation; it was all arranged by Assistant Zhou.
After taking their seats, the girls were most interested in the fruits and snacks on the table, and they sat together to enjoy them.
They were eating and talking at the same time, seemingly enjoying their meal.
Mo Jingchen and Dong Hui sat to the side, giving up their seats for them.
Seeing the happy look on the faces of the people they liked, the two men also smiled.
"Jingchen, do you mind if I call you that?" Dong Cheng said.
"It's alright."
"I wonder where Jingchen works? Judging from your demeanor, you don't seem like an ordinary person."
"You're joking, I'm just a working-class person. I work at the Mo Corporation," Mo Jingchen replied with a smile, politely.
It's not wrong for Mo Jingchen to call himself a working man. Isn't he working for An Yiruo right now?
The reason he was able to get along well with Dong Hui was because, after all, Dong Hui was An Yiruo's roommate's boyfriend, and they would see each other again in the future.
"The Mo Corporation! That's a huge company. Jing Chen is indeed no ordinary person, to be able to work at the Mo Corporation."
Dong Hui's words were filled with envy.
Inside the private room, four women sat around a snack table chatting, while two men sat on a sofa to the side, exchanging a few words.
They completely forgot that they came to a karaoke bar!
After the women had eaten and drunk their fill, they remembered to go to the karaoke machine to request songs.
However, with two men present today, the group didn't go too far and opted for more upbeat and lyrical songs.
Then Li Mei and Gu Siqi egged An Yiruo, Mo Jingchen, Wang Tingting, and Dong Hui on to sing love songs.
It had been a long time since we'd all gotten together, and everyone had a great time. By the time we left the karaoke bar, it was already dark.
"An'an, bye-bye. See you next time." Li Mei took Gu Siqi's arm and waved to An Yiruo.
"Be careful on your way back, and let us know in the group chat when you get home."
An Yiruo was still a little worried, after all, it was not safe for two girls, Li Mei and Gu Siqi, to go home alone at night.
With Dong Hui escorting her, Wang Tingting wasn't worried.
"Don't worry, An'an. I have no money and no looks, no one will do anything to me. Let's go."
Li Mei turned around gracefully, took Gu Siqi's arm, and strode away.
Mo Jingchen then drove up and got out to open the passenger door for An Yiruo.
"Wife, please get in the car."
An Yiruo got into the passenger seat, and Mo Jingchen started the car and drove away.
"Did you have fun today?" Mo Jingchen asked An Yiruo beside him, his hands on the steering wheel, his eyes fixed on the road ahead.
"I'm so happy, it's been so long since we got together."
An Yiruo really had a great time today; she hasn't felt this relaxed and happy in a long time.
An Yiruo leaned back in her seat, seemingly resting or spacing out, her eyes gazing at the neon lights and the lights of countless homes outside the car window.
"You're graduating this year, what kind of graduation gift would you like?"
Mo Jingchen's tone was as if he were a parent rewarding a child who got a perfect score on a test.
"A graduation gift?"
"Of course. I don't know what An'an wants, so I need to prepare in advance."
"I don't want the stars in the sky, I need to prepare for six months in advance!" An Yiruo said with a helpless bitter smile.
"Even if An'an wanted the stars in the sky, I would do my best to get them for her."
"Stop joking. The stars in the sky are visible but untouchable. How can you pick them?"
An Yiruo laughed and teased him, implying that his idea was unrealistic.
"I have a brilliant plan."
"Hmph."
At this moment, An Yiruo was thinking, "I'll just sit here and quietly watch you perform."
...
Holidays are always short-lived, and soon it's the eighth day of the first lunar month, the day when companies officially resume work.
Zhang Yuanyuan did not come to the company today because she needed to reissue her documents.
After thinking about it, today is going to be another boring day of working alone.
Her eyes inadvertently glanced at Dong Cheng's workstation behind her, but it was empty!
However, this was not within An Yiruo's concern. After pouring herself a glass of water, the first workday of the new year officially began.
Since everyone had just started work, the workload wasn't too heavy, and many people were chatting, gossiping, and exchanging local specialties.
Zhang Yuanyuan: "Yi Ruo, have you heard? Dong Cheng resigned?"
Upon seeing this message, An Yiruo was slightly surprised. Dong Cheng resigned...was it because of her?
An Yiruo: "No. Why did you suddenly resign?"
Zhang Yuanyuan: "I don't know the specific reason either. I only heard about it. Did you see him come to work today?"
An Yiruo "did not come to work".
Zhang Yuanyuan: "That's it. Could it be that you resigned to heal your heartbreak after your confession was rejected that day?"
An Yiruo said, "I don't know."
Zhang Yuanyuan: "Forget it, let's not talk about him anymore. Did you miss me while I was away, my little beauty?"
An Yiruo looked at the computer screen and couldn't help but laugh at the message Zhang Yuanyuan had suddenly sent in the WeChat chat window. What did this person take her for?
An Yiruo: "Are you a hooligan, Yuanyuan? And you call yourself a 'little beauty'!"
Zhang Yuanyuan: "Hehe, I wasn't wrong, aren't you a little beauty!"
An Yiruo sent an eye-rolling emoji.
Just as I was about to close the WeChat chat window, I received a message from Dong Cheng.
"An Yiruo, I've resigned."
"Um."
"You rejected me just because I'm not as rich as Mo Jingchen, right? Let me tell you, I'm no longer some lowly employee at Mo's. My dad is Dong Jiasen."
So, do you regret it now?
"Dong Cheng, I've told you before, love has nothing to do with who loves whom or who is rich. What I care about is Mo Jingchen as a person. If it's not necessary in the future, don't contact him anymore."
After typing the message, An Yiruo chose to block Dong Cheng.
People with different values cannot work together; even if they try to communicate, it will be fruitless.
When Dong Cheng sent another message, all I saw was a red exclamation mark.
In a fit of anger, he smashed his phone again.
The poor phone, it's only been a few days since I bought it and it's already broken into pieces.
