Don't stay overnight there.
Although after asking, she found out that the guest room was big enough for everyone to sleep in, Chen Pan felt that since she was married, she should have the awareness of a married woman.
It’s better not to spend the night outside.
Although Lu Zhishu would not get jealous or upset with her because of this, Chen Pan felt that she shouldn't do so.
Like Zhou Mo, she is a person with high moral standards.
You need to bring your own food and cook for the party.
The male colleagues all asked for hot pot because it was simple.
The female colleagues felt that they still had to cook a few dishes symbolically, because without cooking, it would feel lacking in homeliness and liveliness.
So each person is responsible for his own proposal.
Chen Pan is considered to be one of the better cooks among the female colleagues.
After all, when she lived in Gan Ding Apartment, she didn't have a job and spent the whole day studying how to cook.
But she didn't cook any main dishes because they took too much time, so she just stir-fried a few small dishes.
Female colleague A saw the delicious look and aroma of the stir-fried dishes coming out of the wok and couldn't help but praise them, "Panpan, you're a great cook. Whoever marries you will be so lucky."
Chen Pan: "I didn't see that he was blessed, but I did see that he was unlucky."
Female colleague B was surprised: "Are you really married?"
She had just arrived and didn't know that Shen Pan was married.
Female colleague C: "The department went on a business trip to Shangchu before, and after returning, they had a long vacation. I remember that was when Panpan and her husband got their marriage certificate."
Female colleague B: "Wow, I always thought you were still single. Mainly... I don't see you dating often..."
Shen Pan smiled awkwardly, "My husband is quite busy."
Who made her compromise in the end?
Even though she knew that Lu Zhishu was such a person, she still chose to be with her.
Even if I get married, most of the time it's no different from living alone.
This party was the most crowded one for the department, and almost all the young people who love to play and relax came.
Men and women, it’s so lively.
The ingredients for the hot pot were bought by themselves, and the quantity was large and cost-effective. Chen Pan was also thinking about when Lu Zhishu had time, so they could cook hot pot at home.
“Ding Dong——”
The doorbell outside the villa rang.
The lively dinner party suddenly became quiet.
"Who is it..." The leading male colleague A wondered.
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Someone said, "Did someone say they couldn't come and changed their mind and come here?"
"I'll go take a look," Male Colleague A walked over and opened the door.
It turned out that there was a delivery guy outside the door.
"Hello, is Ms. Shen Pan here? Please sign for her cake."
The male colleague turned around and said, "Chen Pan, here's your takeaway."
Shen Pan was stunned for a moment, "What's going on?" She stood up and walked to the door, and saw the delivery boy, who still looked confused.
"Is this Ms. Shen Pan? Your cake," the delivery boy handed it over with both hands.
Shen Pan took it doubtfully, and only when she saw her name in the signatory column on the order receipt did she feel sure that the package was not delivered to the wrong person.
"Can I ask who sent this cake?"
"There's a greeting card here, you can take a look."
"Oh, thank you."
After sending the delivery guy away, Shen Pan brought in the cake.
Everyone cooperated tacitly and immediately cleared the table to make room.
"What's going on, Panpan? Is your husband trying to pursue you again recently? He sends you flowers, orders meals for you every day, and now he even sends you cakes," female colleague A teased.
Shen Pan was embarrassed, "I don't know who sent it yet."
"Didn't you say there was a greeting card? Let's open it and take a look." said female colleague A.
Shen Pan removed the handbag that was tied to the cake box.
There really was a greeting card inside.
It is also a very simple blessing, signed with "Lu".
Could it be Lu Zhishu again?
Why did he suddenly change his personality now?
Someone nearby also caught a glimpse of the greeting card in Shen Pan's hand, as well as the "Lu" on it, and jokingly said, "That's your husband, I remember your husband's last name is Lu."
"Panpan, your husband is so considerate. He knew we were having a department dinner today and sent us a cake to celebrate. How generous," said female colleague B.
However, Shen Pan was a little skeptical. Were these things really done by Lu Zhishu?
However, before she could continue to think about the problem, her colleagues strongly demanded that the cake be divided.
Shen hopes that everyone is in good shape and can use whatever they want.
After eating the cake, everyone was full and satisfied.
The boys were eager to try and play board games and billiards, and each of them was a top player who would stay up all night.
The girls found it boring and decided to go home after dinner.
After the two groups of people said goodbye, the four girls walked out of the villa area.
Girl A drove the MiniEV and took Girl C with her, leaving Shen Pan and Girl B alone. They walked along the road to a more prosperous place to take a taxi.
In winter, there are gusts of cold wind.
There are few taxis at night, and since this is a villa area, there are even fewer cars.
The two walked along the street for a long time before they barely saw a taxi on the road.
Shen Pan was shivering with cold, hugging himself tightly with his hands.
There were few cars on the road. Chen Pan saw a yellow-green taxi from a distance. Regardless of whether it was carrying passengers or not, she waved at the car from a distance.
However, before the taxi came closer, a black Cayenne stopped in front of her.
Chen Pan and his female colleague exchanged a glance. They were both wary of the car that had stopped inexplicably in front of them.
It wasn't until the rear window of the Cayenne rolled down and a handsome and slightly charming familiar face appeared that Shen Pan's heart rose to his throat.
"Get in the car, I'll take you back," Lu Zhinan said with a smile.
The female colleague pulled Shen Pan and asked quietly: "Who is it... Is this... your husband?"
Lu Zhinan chuckled and said, "I'm her husband's... younger brother."
He gasped for breath as he spoke, and Shen Pan could see the obvious ups and downs in the expression on his female colleague's face.
"Don't bother," Shen Pan said, "we can just take a taxi back."
Chen Pan did not forget Lu Zhishu's instructions. She took her female colleague with her and hailed the taxi she had just seen.
On the way.
The female colleague asked her curiously: "Your husband's younger brother is so handsome, are they brothers? Your husband must be handsome too."
Shen Pan: "My husband is a thousand times more handsome than him."
The female colleague was stunned. "You and your brother-in-law have a bad relationship?"
"It's okay," Shen Pan said roughly.
The female colleague didn't ask any more questions.
Her home was nearby, so they could reach the destination in no time. Afterwards, the driver went to send Shen Pan off.
When he was almost home, the driver turned a corner and suddenly saw the familiar Cayenne behind him.
"Ma'am, the car behind us has been following us."
Shen Pan turned around and recognized that the car was the one Lu Zhinan was riding in.
"Don't worry about him," Shen Pan said, "just drive directly into the community."
The driver was about to reach the gate of the community when the Cayenne behind him suddenly overtook him and blocked the taxi directly.
Fortunately, the taxi driver was experienced and braked in time.
