Zhou Mo: "What group?"
Song Yan: "It's called the 'Stabbing Group'. I was just pulled into it by Lu Zhishu today. There are only Lu Zhishu, Han Chen, and Liang Dongyan in it."
Zhou Mo: “…”
She knew that this group belonged to Han Chen and his three cousins, and it also happened to be a communication group for Zhifan affairs.
but……
"Why did you suddenly join this group?"
Song Yan: "Ask Lu Zhishu, he suddenly pulled me in."
Lu Zhishu held his forehead awkwardly: "I pulled it wrong... and it's hard to kick it out..."
Song Yan's face darkened: "...Lu Zhishu, ah Lu Zhishu... I thought you treated me as a buddy and invited me to join the group so that I could integrate into your little circle..."
Chen Pan: "Are you in the same circle as the three of them? Don't you have any idea what's going on? You used to be Bo Jian's rival, and you have nothing to do with Zhi Fan..."
Song Yan: "Chen Pan! Even you laugh at me?"
Chen Pan chuckled, "I don't have any."
Song Yan's face was filled with regret. "I treated you as my friends, but you—especially you, Lu Zhishu. If you hadn't dragged me into the group, I wouldn't have spoken freely in the group. I ended up talking about a Yitian employee proposing... Then Han Chen saw it and gave him an idea. That's why he said in the group that he hadn't proposed to Zhou Mo yet, but wanted to propose to her today. I even recruited people everywhere and scrambled to help him prepare. Especially those 999 roses, most of which I got from running around to many flower shops. I shouldn't have treated you as friends and helped you do all this! Break up! Break up!"
Lu Zhishu: "I didn't kick you out... Don't worry about it, ah. I'll toast you a glass later. To make amends."
"That's more like it." Song Yan is really stingy, and he is really easy to coax.
Lu Zhishu's words of apology made him turn 180 degrees.
"Thank you for what happened today," Zhou Mo looked at the familiar people around him. He felt that the people present had helped him a lot in experiencing such a wonderful proposal.
"Especially you, Song Yan..." Zhou Mo said with a smile, "I'll toast you a glass later as a token of my gratitude."
"You have so many things to thank me for," Song Yan said proudly, "I was the one who arranged the fireworks for you and Han Chen last time."
"Yeah, it seems I have to toast you one more time."
"Can I owe it to you first?" Han Chen suddenly asked.
"What do you owe?" Song Yan was puzzled.
"Wine," Han Chen said, "I'll drink it for Momo next time I can drink."
"..." Song Yan was speechless. "It's just a glass of wine. She's not drinking with anyone else. Do you need to protect her so much? I'm not forcing her to drink."
"She can't drink much."
"She can't drink much, and you can't drink much better either," Du Moliang suddenly smiled and put his arm around Han Chen's shoulder. "Have you forgotten your previous 'great achievements' of drinking at my house? You were down after just one glass."
“…”
"Song Yan has helped us so much, we should respect him," Zhou Mo said with a smile, "Don't worry about me. It's just a glass of wine, can you really make me drunk?"
"That's right," Song Yan agreed, "Brother Zheng, hurry up and take out the old cellar you've treasured for many years. This is such an important moment, it's time to drink good wine."
"You're such a jerk," Zong Zheng rolled his eyes at him. "You can drink the good wine, but today's bill will be put on your account."
"Hey, Han Chen proposed to you, so why are you counting it on me? It seems like I'm just a complete loser in your eyes? I spent all my money and effort to help you get married and fall in love, and I, a single guy, have to sit in the audience, cheer you on, sit in the special seats, and support your real couple, right?"
Several people burst into laughter.
Especially Song Yan’s line “sitting in the special seats and supporting a real couple”, I feel like it can be used as a famous saying and a meme in the future.
"Don't forget, today is a double celebration. Not only did Han Chen propose, but he also got a promotion," Ling Yuebin said. "Once the internal list is out, it will be announced soon."
"Right, right, right," Song Yan said, "Han Chen, congratulations. Your career has finally taken a step forward. I wish you continued success in the future."
"Thanks."
"Xiao Ling, you have to hurry up too," Du Moyou said, "Don't just be happy for Han Chen, you have to pay more attention to him too."
Ling Yuebin smiled awkwardly. "Forget it. I'm lucky I can stay in the First Hospital of Dongda University. There are many veterans in our department, like Han Chen, and there are even more capable people. As for promotion, it may take eight hundred years for me to get it. I feel good now."
Ling Yuebin is one of the representatives of the "lay-flat" school in orthopedics.
Most people in orthopedics are like him.
Outstanding people like Han Chen are a minority no matter where they are. Most people are like Ling Yuebin. They obviously make up the majority and are also the group that undertakes the most tasks in the department, but because their abilities are too flat, they will never be promoted.
To put it even more cruelly, the ordinary majority like Ling Yuebin are not even qualified as candidates when it comes to promotion.
But what makes Ling Yuebin different is that he is a lay-back type, but an optimist.
He will not become cynical just because he does not get a good thing like promotion. He has a clear understanding of himself and his life. He looks Buddhist, but not depressed at all.
This is also one of the reasons why Han Chen is willing to be friends with him.
They are Buddhist but not depressed, this is what they have in common. After all, birds of a feather flock together.
During the banquet, the only ones who could drink were Zong Zheng, Song Yan, and Lu Zhishu.
Although there were only three of them, they all had a good alcohol tolerance.
Du Moyou saw that Zong Zheng was so happy, and did not restrain him.
It’s not because of the presence of outsiders, but... he has been taking good care of the baby these days.
Du Moyu worked several night shifts in a row, so Zong Yi had to be taken care of by Zong Zheng. Zong Zheng happened to be going on a business trip, and he didn't want to leave Zong Yi behind as a burden, so he took him with him.
When discussing business with clients, Zong Yi always accompanies them.
Although the whole process was chaotic, Zong Zheng was responsible.
The reason why Zong Zheng was allowed to drink with so many friends was because of his good performance in taking care of the children.
"Sister Mo You, where is Xiaoyi? Why didn't you bring him here?" Zhou Mo asked.
"My parents just came back from out of town. They haven't seen their grandson for a long time, so they took him away."
"Oh, so that's it," Zhou Mo was still a little disappointed.
I always feel that such gatherings with acquaintances are more fun when there are children.
The men at the dinner table have a lot of topics to talk about, and they can talk about anything.
Women are different. Their topics mostly revolve around family and children. If there is a child present, they will also focus on the child.
Du Moyou noticed Zhou Mo's disappointment and teased her, "Why, you want a child too? You and Han Chen have a good relationship, right? Just have a baby."
Zhou Mo smiled.
Han Chen suddenly answered for Zhou Mo: "I have some issues at home, so I won't be considering the child for the time being."
