In the morning, Fairy Tale got up as usual after the alarm clock rang.
When she finished washing up and was about to go downstairs to make breakfast, she saw that Qin Zun had already gotten up.
"You got up so early today?"
"I just went out to buy breakfast."
Tonghua was overjoyed and walked to the dining table. "Wow, what a sumptuous breakfast!"
She looked at what was on the table, which included soy milk, steamed buns, dumplings, and her favorite century egg and lean meat porridge.
Tonghua pulled out a chair and sat down, saying cheerfully, "Why did you decide to go out and buy breakfast today?"
Tonghua asked him as she picked up a steamed bun and started eating.
"I saw that you were too tired yesterday, so I wanted you to sleep a little longer, so I went outside the community to buy breakfast."
Tonghua looked at him with a smile on her face: "Thank you, Mr. Qin."
Hearing this, Qin Zun paused for a moment while drinking porridge, then continued eating as if nothing had happened.
After a while, Qin Zun dropped another piece of heavy news: "The old man called yesterday and said he would come over this weekend."
"What? Cough, cough..."
These words startled Tonghua so much that she almost choked. She quickly patted her chest to calm down, then drank some water and felt much better.
Tonghua was so anxious that she couldn't even enjoy her meal. She put down her chopsticks and kept muttering, "What should I do? What should I do? If Grandpa Qin comes over, we'll definitely be exposed."
Qin Zun said calmly: "So I need you and I to cooperate in acting these days."
"What play?"
"Of course we're playing a loving couple. We'll need to adapt for a few days beforehand so that when the old man comes, we won't be exposed."
"So what should I do?"
"The first thing is that you need to change the way you address me."
"I call you Mr. Qin, but that doesn't seem right."
Tonghua thought for a moment and said, "Then should I just call you by your name?"
Qin Zun frowned and said nothing.
Seeing his expression, Tonghua defended herself again: "You can't possibly ask me to call you husband, I really can't say that."
Qin Zun's calm face showed no emotion: "That's it for now, I'm full and ready to go to work."
Tonghua responded blankly, still thinking about Grandpa Qin coming over at the weekend and what she should do.
Qin Zun stood at the entrance and coughed deliberately again.
Tonghua felt a little confused, sat on the chair, turned her head and looked at him.
"Mr. Qin, do you have anything else to do for me?"
"Didn't I just tell you that we have to pretend to be a loving couple? Now that my husband is leaving for work, what should I do as a wife?"
Tonghua waved at him tentatively: "Well, be careful on the road?"
Qin Zun was speechless.
He closed the door and left.
Uh, is he satisfied or not?
Forget it, she packed up and got ready for work.
Work was pretty leisurely this morning, with not much to do.
The idle time passed quickly and soon it was lunch time.
Lin Yahui walked directly to Tonghua and said to her, "Tonghua, did you bring lunch today? If not, shall we go out to eat together?"
Lin Yahui prepared to go out for dinner with two other female colleagues.
Tonghua made an OK gesture, turned off the computer and followed them.
After everyone ordered their meals, Lin Yahui said mysteriously, "Hey, do you know about that incident?"
When Tonghua heard this, she wondered what kind of gossip about the company was going on.
In the company, the place where news spreads the fastest is the tea room, followed by lunch time.
Tonghua slowed down his eating and looked at Lin Yahui quietly.
Another female colleague raised an eyebrow, looked at the two of them, and said mysteriously: "Are you referring to the one with the surname Su?"
Lin Yahui looked around as if she was about to tell a secret, and no one was eavesdropping on her.
She then lowered her voice, leaned forward, and said slowly: "Yes, that's right, it's her."
Lin Yahui even touched Tonghua with her shoulder and said, "Tonghua, do you remember? You and her once participated in a project evaluation for the MX company?"
Tonghua said calmly, "Su Xiaomo?"
Another female colleague couldn't wait to interrupt: "I heard she said she saw a ghost in broad daylight?"
Lin Yahui: "That's not right. Why did I hear her say she was being followed?"
Tonghua felt something was wrong the more he listened, so he asked again, "Is the person you are talking about Su Xiaomo?"
The female colleague who had been silent the entire time said with a look of superiority: "You guys are all wrong. You don't know the exact situation as well as I do. I was there at the time."
"Then tell me!"
"This morning, I was going to the manager's office to submit some documents. I walked to the door and was about to knock when I heard someone crying."
The female colleague stopped talking and started drinking water.
The other two were so anxious that they almost lost their temper and pushed her: "Hurry up and tell us. Don't keep us in suspense at this critical moment."
"Don't worry, I was curious when I heard the crying, so I leaned against the door to listen to what was going on."
Lin Yahui asked her anxiously: "What did you hear?"
"I didn't hear anything. The office door is of good quality, you know that..."
After hearing these words, Tonghua was so anxious that she wanted to urge her.
Is this the time to complain about the quality of the company's doors?
Isn't this obviously off topic?
Lin Yahui and the others immediately said in unison: "Hurry up and tell me what happened to her. Stop talking nonsense here!!"
The female colleague then said, "Although I didn't hear anything, the manager soon let me in. As soon as I entered, I saw Su Xiaomo wiping her tears and leaving with a depressed look. I felt something was wrong at the time and looked at our manager. The manager must have been very helpless at the time. He told me that Su Xiaomo had come to his office many times recently, and every time she came, she said that someone in the company was following her. This was nonsense. The manager had no choice but to comfort her, saying that she might be under too much work pressure. He asked for a few days off for her to rest well. As a result, Su Xiaomo's suspicious state became more and more serious after the leave, which made the manager very embarrassed."
Lin Yahui: "Now that you mention it, I remember that every time I run into Su Xiaomo recently, I feel like she's not in a very good mental state, and her whole nerves aren't quite right."
The female colleague said, "Do you think she has lost her mind?"
