24 Chapter 24
◎ "Tell me the truth, are you attracted to Ying Yun?"◎
I don’t know if it was because of the dinner I invited Zhong Tian to, but my subsequent job entry went very smoothly. The HR specialist of the Medical Translation Bank quickly contacted Yang Xueyi, and after signing the contract, she just had to wait until next Monday to officially start work.
Medical Translation Bank has a base salary + project commission model. In the translation industry, this company's base salary is already very generous, and as for project commission, it is fair and reasonable, the more you work, the more you earn. Yang Xueyi is very motivated about this.
Having transformed from an unemployed person back into a white-collar worker in the workplace, Yang Xueyi can finally hold his head high and no longer have to hide things from Ms. Yang Meiying. He can act first and report later.
Everything was going smoothly for Yang Xueyi, and her mother's side was also going smoothly.
Ms. Yang Meiying's new employer is a nice person. After a month, she has adapted well to the new situation. Tomorrow, Saturday, will be her first day off this month.
The only one who was not doing well was probably Ying Yun.
He looked quite stable when he was catching abalone that day, as if he had accepted reality. But after returning home in the evening, Ying Yun seemed to be in a bad mood, with a sullen look on his face, as if he had suffered several sudden blows from life. I don't know if he was touched by something or hurt by something while he was out shopping.
However, he did finish all the food that Yang Xueyi brought him in the insulated lunch box.
Although he was sad, he was still passionate about eating.
The next few days also confirmed Yang Xueyi's guess - although Ying Yun had a stern face, he ate every meal Yang Xueyi cooked with a cold face, and ate a lot. After eating, he could wash the dishes with a cold face, and after washing the dishes, he could also give Yang Xueyi a fruit with a cold face after the meal.
Since you can eat so much, it’s not a big problem.
In fact, Yang Xueyi felt a little embarrassed that she couldn't get Ying Yun to stay for dinner last time.
Now that she was about to officially start work, she decided to treat Ms. Yang Meiying and Ying Yun to a nice meal at home and share the good news.
She quickly and busily prepared a table of dishes.
Although Ying Yun's face looked unhappy, after Yang Xueyi purchased the ingredients, he went into the kitchen to take a look, and then started to help pick vegetables with a cold face.
But as he was picking, Yang Xue noticed him looking around, then pursed her lips and said unhappily, "Where's the abalone? Why isn't there any this time?"
Labor is the most glorious and gives people a sense of accomplishment. This is absolutely true.
Apparently, Ying Yun felt very accomplished after catching abalone last time, so he wanted to do it again this time.
"You don't have to scrub it." Yang Xueyi smiled. "Seafood is too troublesome to handle."
Seeing that he didn't have to brush the abalone himself and couldn't contribute light and heat, Ying Yun looked very disappointed and had an ugly expression.
"We're just having a meal together, so we won't bother with that. Thank you for the hard work you put into cleaning the seafood last time."
Fortunately, after Yang Xueyi finished her next sentence, acknowledging Ying Yun's efforts last time, Ying Yun's expression finally improved.
**
Ms. Yang Meiying was very happy with this meal.
"Actually, I know you weren't happy with your previous job. It's good that you changed jobs now. Even if the salary is less, it's okay. Your happiness is what's important."
But just as Yang Xueyi was happy about her job change, Yang Meiying made a new request: "You're not young anymore, you can consider starting a family. Now that your job is stable, you can look for your future partner. Do you want me to give it to you..."
don't want!
Without Yang Meiying finishing her words, Yang Xueyi knew that her mother was planning to arrange a blind date for her.
Yang Xue was so upset that she waved her hands repeatedly: "Mom! How old am I? Can't I have a free love relationship? There may be some good boys around me who like me and pursue me!"
"Those people around you who continue to pester and harass you even after you've clearly rejected them all seem to be shady. How can they be trusted?"
In order to dissuade Ms. Yang Meiying from arranging a blind date for her, Yang Xueyi quickly came up with a solution: "As for my future boss, Zhong Tian, I think he's a little interested in me. If I take the initiative, I think we might be able to fall in love."
"Zhong Tian is still Ying Yun's friend. Birds of a feather flock together. Mom, didn't you say Ying Yun is a very good person? Then how can his friends be so dishonest?"
What Yang Xueyi said was not a lie. The last time they had dinner together, she clearly felt that Zhong Tian had a good impression of her.
Upon hearing this, Yang Meiying became interested: "Xiao Yun, what is this Zhong Tian like?"
Ying Yun paused, put down his chopsticks and glanced at Yang Xueyi. Before Yang Xueyi could wink at him, Ying Yun indifferently shifted his gaze away.
"He's a nice guy." Ying Yun's voice was as steady and convincing as ever. He looked up and said, "He's a very kind person, especially caring for his younger subordinates. We have a junior sister working in his company, and he carried her to the hospital when she had gastroenteritis."
"She's very ambitious and works very hard. For a project, she would rather cut off social interaction and entertainment for several months, live alone in a hotel, and work without distractions."
Ying Yun seemed to be trying hard to recall Zhong Tian's strengths. "He's very capable. Medical Translation Bank just received several investments and signed a bet agreement. If the bet is completed, there will be no worries about future income."
"My love life is pretty simple. I had a girlfriend in college, but after we broke up, we immediately cut all ties and blocked each other from contact. There's no such thing as unforgettable love."
…
Yang Xueyi was originally worried that Ying Yun's mentality was unbalanced due to the huge changes in his life, and he would not be able to evaluate Zhong Tian objectively and fairly. She wanted to give Ying Yun a wink to let him say a few good words about Zhong Tian. Unexpectedly, Ying Yun was quite nice to his friends. Without Yang Xueyi's greeting, he almost praised Zhong Tian to the point of brilliance.
Ying Yun finished speaking, even with a particularly sincere tone: "Aunt Yang, if Zhong Tian is interested in Yang Xueyi, I think it's okay for the two of them to give it a try. He's a good person and very reliable."
Yang Xueyi originally had no intention of really having a relationship with Zhong Tian. She just wanted to have a reliable person so that her mother would give up the idea of arranging blind dates for her. Now that Ying Yun said this, she must have nothing to worry about.
Ying Yunren really got it.
In the past, he would probably just say in a sarcastic and roundabout way that his friends looked down on Yang Xueyi.
Now that he was so sure of Zhong Tian and did not refute his affection for Yang Xueyi, Yang Xueyi felt that Ying Yun was becoming someone who could get along with her.
He still saw and remembered the help he had given him before.
He also remembered the favor that Zhong Tian gave him the part-time job.
But to her surprise, although Ying Yun was praising her, Ms. Yang Meiying frowned more and more the more she listened.
As soon as Ying Yun finished speaking, she immediately slammed the table and stood up—
"This Zhong Tian is absolutely not possible."
ah?
Yang Xueyi was very confused, but Ying Yun was surprisingly calm in his reaction to Ms. Yang Meiying.
If he hadn't just praised Zhong Tian with all his might, Yang Xueyi would have suspected that Ying Yun had just said something offensive.
"Xiao Yun, I believe in your judgment. Your friend is definitely a good person, but he is a good friend, not necessarily a good partner."
Ms. Yang Meiying explained earnestly, "When judging people, you have to look beyond the surface to see the essence. His concern for his young female subordinate shows that he's too much of a central air-conditioner. Even if he's a good person, what if a female subordinate becomes unfaithful to him in the future? When people are tempted too much, they may not be able to resist."
"As for his career ambition, if he gets married, he'll definitely have to take care of the children. If he stays in a hotel all day for months on end for a project, who's going to take care of the children? Wouldn't it be hard for anyone to be his wife?"
"Successful entrepreneurship is indeed very profitable, but is it guaranteed to succeed? If it fails, won't we all be burdened with debt?"
"It's even worse to be so decisive in drawing a line in the sand with your ex-girlfriend. Yang Xueyi, are you sure you can get to the point of marriage with him? If not, he'll block you and never contact you again after we break up. Not only will you lose your boyfriend, you'll also lose your job! Dating your boss is too risky!"
Ms. Yang Meiying expressed her attitude: "This Zhong Tian is not good enough, let's change him."
…
After finishing the meal and seeing Ms. Yang Meiying off, Yang Xueyi was still wondering.
Her only peach blossom that was not so bad was strangled in its budding stage.
But on second thought, there are indeed too many uncertainties in dating your boss, and her mother's analysis is indeed correct.
Between career prospects and love, Yang Xueyi naturally chose the former.
Of course, after rejecting Zhong Tian, Ms. Yang Meiying immediately wanted to arrange a blind date for Yang Xueyi. Fortunately, Ying Yun said something fair -
"Aunt Yang, falling in love right after starting work would be quite distracting."
"There aren't that many people entering the medical translation market right now. If you seize the opportunity to capture the market and secure stable clients, your future will be much easier. If you immediately start dating, getting married, and having children, you might waste your prime career years."
Yang Xueyi's mother didn't listen to what she said, but fortunately Ying Yun's words always worked wonders. When Ms. Yang Meiying heard this, she immediately exempted Yang Xueyi from the obligation of blind dating and kindly said that she would wait until her new job was stable for a while before talking to her.
Yang Xueyi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
What she hated most in the past was that Ying Yun pretended to be a harmless person in front of her mother, which made her mother trust Ying Yun even more. Ying Yun also contradicted her almost every time, so she was fed up with this annoying guy Ying Yun.
This was the first time that Yang Xueyi felt that she was biased.
In the past, she only thought about defeating the enemy with Yingying Yun, but why did she never think of recruiting him under her command?
After all, Ying Yun was not that rude. Today, not only did he praise Zhong Tian lavishly as Yang Xueyi needed, he also dissuaded Ms. Yang Meiying from arranging a blind date for her with just a few words.
I actually didn't treat him that well, but he just reciprocated my kindness. It shows that people are more likely to be sober and grateful when they are in trouble.
Such a talent must be given important positions!
But once Yang Xueyi regarded Ying Yun as a troublesome employee, her mentality calmed down. No matter how difficult the employees were to manage, weren't they still working for her and for her use?
I was too narrow-minded before.
Yang Xueyi now looks at Ying Yun and finds everything about him pleasing to the eye. In order to better "win over" this employee, she vows to treat him better in the future.
This opportunity soon arose—
"Xiaoxue, do you want to go to the Spring Garden Party? I have tickets."
Although Qiao Qianqian failed in love, her career luck was booming. Not only were her private photo shoots fully booked, she even took on the promotion business of cultural and tourism projects in Rong City, and the Spring Garden Party was one of them.
"This spring fair is organized by the Vinh City Tourism Bureau to boost the suburban economy. It's held at the amusement park in the suburbs. Not only will there be various cultural and creative market stalls, but they've also recruited many unique brands from other cities to tour the city, making it almost like a theme park."
Qiao Qianqian was very proud: "In order to limit the flow of people and ensure the effectiveness of the event, the tickets for this Spring Garden Party are still limited."
Yang Xueyi was not interested at first, but when she looked at the date, she found that Ying Yun happened to have a day off that day, and she suddenly had an idea.
“Give me two tickets!”
"Two? Who else are you going with?"
"Make an appointment with Ying Yun first."
When Qiao Qianqian heard this, her expression immediately became playful: "Tell me the truth, are you attracted to him? You used to hate him and scold him, but actually beating him was affection and scolding him was love. Now you think of him in everything."
"No! I consider him my employee now!"
Yang Xueyi thought for a moment and said impartially, "You know, my mom loves him so much, it's like she's been drugged. I used to be stupid and opposed him, but now I realize that the saying 'if you can't beat them, join them' is absolutely true. Why should I go against Ying Yun? Why don't I just let him and I be on the same side?"
"To subdue a tough enemy and make him your confidant, to make him one of your most powerful generals, wouldn't that be like adding wings to a tiger? I need to treat Ying Yun as an employee. Right now, he's at his lowest point, so shouldn't I care about him in every way? This ticket of yours is like free 'team building' right to my doorstep!"
"And I haven't finished what I said just now. I've made an appointment with Ying Yun first, but that doesn't mean I will go with Ying Yun!"
Yang Xueyi explained, "Because Ying Yun won't go. He's so busy, it's so rare for him to go out with me on his day off. But I should at least make an invitation, right? That way, even if he doesn't go, he'll know I'm still thinking of him, and at least he'll be willing to accept my favor!"
"But the other ticket can't be wasted. I'll ask Ying Yun first. Once he declines and goes through the routine procedures, I'll make an appointment with someone else..."
Qiao Qianqian on the other end of the phone was indeed amazed at how clever it was.
Yang Xueyi was very proud: "People, sometimes you just have to push yourself, otherwise you don't know how smart your brain is!"
She was about to brag about herself when she heard a knock on the door. Ying Yun was standing at the door with an expressionless face.
"Yang Xueyi."
I don’t know when he came back. Ying Yun still smelled of hospital disinfectant and looked a little tired.
He glanced at Yang Xueyi calmly and said, "Aunt Yang called you but the line was busy. She asked you to call back quickly because she said she had something urgent to tell you."
Yang Xueyi was a little embarrassed. She had no idea that Ying Yun would come back early and talk to Qiao Qianqian on the phone without even closing the door, so Ying Yun didn't need to open the door at all. His knocking was just a formality.
Fortunately, Ying Yun looked calm, probably because he didn't hear anything.
After hanging up the phone with Qiao Qianqian, Yang Xueyi immediately called Ms. Yang Meiying back. The urgent matter she mentioned was not a big deal. She just couldn't remember the password of a bank card. As soon as Yang Xueyi told her, Yang Meiying hung up the phone in a hurry and said she had to go out to get busy.
Only then did Yang Xueyi leave the room.
At this moment, Ying Yun was in the kitchen. Yang Xueyi watched him pour a glass of boiled water. He raised his neck while drinking. She could see his Adam's apple rolling slightly because of the swallowing action. The fingers holding the glass of water were slender and white, which fit the stereotype of a surgeon.
It is hard to deny that although Ying Yun is poor, he looks like he has never been poor in his life. His every move and gesture still gives off the aura of a superior young master, and even drinking water creates a sense of atmosphere.
Yang Xueyi coughed: "Ying Yun."
Ying Yun turned around and put down his water cup. After a day of intense work, he seemed to be relaxed when he returned home. His tone was a bit nonchalant and lazy: "Hmm?"
Yang Xueyi didn't know why, but she actually became a little nervous, and her voice became stammering: "Qianqian got me two tickets for the Spring Garden Party. It just so happens that you have a day off tomorrow, do you want to go?"
Ying Yun's eyes were always cold and distant, and Yang Xueyi was prepared for him to reject her.
Just when she was about to blurt out the polite words "It's okay, let's go together next time if there's a chance", she heard Ying Yun's answer -
"Yeah, okay."
ah?
Now it was Yang Xueyi's turn to be stunned.
"Are you sure?"
"Sure." Ying Yun pursed his lips and smiled, "It's an employee benefit, it would be a shame not to go."
In the face of Yang Xueyi's shocked gaze, Ying Yun glanced at her calmly: "Thank you, boss."
“…”
Ying Yun had a faint expression and looked very calm, and his words sounded as if he was a grateful subordinate who was truly thinking about his boss, but Yang Xueyi always felt that he sensed something weird.
But, could it be that I misunderstood?
Ying Yun might not have meant that.
But the next second, Yang Xueyi knew that was what Ying Yun meant.
The man continued expressionlessly:
"Just remember to close the door next time the boss calls."
"Otherwise, it would be inappropriate for me, an employee, to hear business secrets."
…

Ying Yun: I will report it to the central government!
