"Do you have any use for them? Joan and I do have some."
"Yes, yes, yes, thanks to you lending us two umbrellas that night, otherwise Wang Lai and I might have caught a cold and fever too," Chen Shunwei said excitedly.
"Okay, I'll stop at the door for a bit."
After Shen Yanming and Chen Shunwei finished speaking, they got into the car and started driving.
When I got out of the garage, I found that the snow had stopped and the road leading to the entrance of the community had been cleared.
The car tires bounced on the relatively clean ground, and Shen Yanming couldn't help but sigh, "I wonder if the roads outside have been cleaned."
Bi Qiaoan laughed, "You'll find out soon enough. But we're leaving earlier today than yesterday, so it seems we'll have to disappoint Yu Shui's kind intentions."
"It can't be called letting him down. Although Yu Shui can be stubborn at times, he is very responsible."
He voluntarily took on the responsibility of opening and closing the door every day. Even if we can't share the burden, we shouldn't take advantage of an honest person like that.
When the two arrived at the entrance of the residential area, Shen Yanming stopped the car and honked the horn twice. Wang Lai then came out of the security room.
"Brother Chen, sister-in-law, thank you for lending us your umbrellas, otherwise we might have caught a cold and fever."
"You're lucky to be alright; it's not necessarily the umbrella's fault," Shen Yanming said with a smile.
"No, no, no, it really has to do with umbrellas. Several of our security team members got caught in the rain and snow that day, and without exception, they all developed fevers and are currently receiving IV drips at the hospital."
"Really?" Shen Yanming asked.
Wang Lai nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "Really, really. We're short-staffed right now, so Shunwei and I are on separate duty. You two need to be careful and make sure you don't get caught in the rain or snow!"
Shen Yanming nodded and then bid farewell to Wang Lai.
The snow on the main road was still very thick; in comparison, the security guards at Qingyu Community were incredibly diligent.
On roads like these, the snow chains start to work properly, and the ride in the car is much less bumpy.
The two strolled along, chatting and laughing, and didn't arrive at their workplace until 9:40.
As expected, apart from Ye Xiaoxiao and Xia Ran, the other five had already arrived.
Yu Shui was somewhat surprised to see Shen Yanming and said, "Didn't I tell you two to come later? Why are you here so early?"
"Yes, has Qiao An had enough sleep?" Qin Yiren teased with a smile.
"That's enough, that's enough. Without electricity, we go to bed early and wake up early too. If there's nothing else, Yanming and I came to the office." Bi Qiaoan said generously, but the tips of her ears were clearly tinged with a blush.
After the two sat down, Shen Yanming took out a lunchbox, opened it, and placed it in front of everyone. "I made some jerky last night, have a taste!"
"Hey Lao Shen, why are you being so generous today?"
"Since the power is on, the food in the refrigerator won't keep long. Making it into jerky will keep it for a couple more days," Shen Yanming said with a smile. "There's not much, and since there are fewer people today, everyone can eat more."
Yu Shui hugged the lunchbox with a smile, "I like that, hehe, comrades, let's eat meat!"
Li Yueya, Qin Yiren, Cui Xian, and Li Yinhe smiled and stepped forward to pick up the jerky. After chewing it, each of them showed a surprised and satisfied expression.
"Wow, this is so delicious! Shen Yanming, how do you make your dried meat? Tell me quickly, so I can make mine when I get home."
Before the others could react, Qin Yiren took out another piece of dried meat from the lunchbox.
“You should ask Qiao An what you’re saying!” Yu Shui said.
"Pah, someone like Lao Shen, would he really let his wife do these things?" Qin Yiren rolled her eyes at Yu Shui and then said, "I bet it was Lao Shen who did it, with Qiao An probably giving instructions from the side."
Although Qin Yiren and Yu Shui started the topic, everyone else was also curious and looked at Shen Yanming, waiting for him to give an answer.
Shen Yanming did not hide anything and directly admitted that he had done it.
After hearing this, Qin Yiren smiled smugly at Yu Shui, "Now you understand, right? If it weren't for the fact that she's such a gem, I wouldn't have thought of poaching Qiao An's boyfriend in the first place!"
As soon as Qin Yiren said those words, the once lively office seemed to be put on pause.
Seeing everyone staring at her in disbelief, Qin Yiren raised an eyebrow and said, "What, can't a young person's youthful arrogance and a few mistakes be forgiven?"
"Haha, no, no, actually we all saw through it," Yu Shui said with a laugh. "Actually, I quite admire you. You dare to love and hate, and you dare to admit your mistakes, unlike that other person..."
Everyone knew who Yu Shui was referring to, so they all chuckled.
"Yeah, Michelle is pretty shameless."
Qin Yiren nodded and said, "Although I wanted to break up this model couple at the time, I thought they weren't married. Besides, I gave up when I knew I couldn't break them up, unlike that other person who is still hoping for it."
Although this makes us sound a bit evenly matched, I think I'm still a bit more noble than her. At least I didn't do anything disgusting, and besides, I've already come to terms with it.
At this moment, Qin Yiren walked up to Bi Qiaoan and bowed to her. "Although my values are a bit skewed, I know I was wrong back then. I'm sorry, Qiaoan. I apologize to you and ask for your forgiveness."
Bi Qiaoan was stunned when Qin Yiren accused her of poaching someone else's boyfriend, because she hadn't noticed anything about it!
However, she quite liked Qin Yiren. This girl was good at striving but knew when to advance and retreat, and although her actions were crooked, she had a bottom line.
"It's okay, I wouldn't have known about this if you hadn't told me!" Bi Qiaoan said with a smile.
Upon hearing Bi Qiaoan's words, Yu Shui burst into laughter, "Old Shen, your wife is far too oblivious to her love rival."
Shen Yanming covered his mouth and chuckled, "You don't understand, this is my wife's trust in me!"
Moreover, Qin Yiren pulled back from the brink and didn't do anything to hurt my relationship with Qiao An, so I've never blamed her.
Qin Yiren chuckled after hearing this and said to Shen Yanming, "Don't worry, don't worry, I'm no longer interested in you."
But I'll keep an eye on you for Joan from now on. You know, there aren't many people in this world who can let go so easily like I do. What if you get stuck with someone like that...?
"No, I will keep my distance from the opposite sex," Shen Yanming said to Qin Yiren with a serious expression.
“We all heard that, and we’ll keep an eye on you for Qiao An,” Yu Shui said with a smile.
Shen Yanming nodded, "No problem!"
Bi Qiaoan felt secretly pleased. Although she knew that as long as the space existed, they would be bound together for life, there was still a big difference between having love and not having love.
Just like now, they love each other, so every day they are together is happy.
As Bi Qiaoan was immersed in this joy, she caught a glimpse of Li Yueya's envious gaze out of the corner of her eye.
Bi Qiaoan nudged Shen Yanming, took the lunchbox from his hand, and said, "Ya Ya, someone asked me to give this to you!"
