On the first day of work, most of the people in the company reported to work, except for a colleague whose hometown was too far away who took a few days off.
Fortunately, the company also understood that employees would not change their minds so quickly, so they gave red envelopes to everyone who arrived on the first day of work, and also provided afternoon tea and dinner.
All members of Du Xiran's team were present. For the entire morning, everyone was immersed in the atmosphere of the New Year, handling trivial tasks and chatting at the same time.
Xu Huan complained about several weird blind date candidates, Chen Shuimin shared interesting stories about traveling during the New Year, and Lao Wang showed everyone photos of his wife and children, and they were all very happy.
Someone asked Ye Nanning how she spent the New Year.
Ye Nanning smiled and said, "It's very good. This is the best year I've ever had."
Xu Huan: "Don't be so confident. What if there is a better year in the future?"
"That would be great." Ye Nanning said with a smile. She glanced at the office inadvertently and saw Du Xiran sitting alone in a small room, staring at the screen intently, as if he had a lot of work to deal with.
VPs are different from them. They are much more free to go to work and come home than them, but they have to do the work if there is work. Clients will always look for you. Moreover, since the work has just started, Du Xiran has to quickly coordinate the next projects and distribute them to them.
Not knowing what she was thinking of, Ye Nanning placed an order on her mobile phone.
In the afternoon, the afternoon tea purchased by the company arrived. Du Xiran was too busy to take it, and she didn't want to pay attention to it. After a while, there was a knock on the door, and she said without raising her head: "Come in."
"Mr. Du, your afternoon tea is here." Ye Nanning walked in with coffee and pizza tarts.
"Put it on the table." Du Xiran said.
Ye Nanning put her things on the table, and when she saw that there was no water in her thermos, she said, "I'll get you a glass of water."
"Okay, thank you." Du Xiran didn't bother to be polite with her. This guy had been chatting with his colleagues outside since early morning, and Xu Huan and the others were talking very loudly. In comparison, she felt so miserable.
A few minutes later, Ye Nanning came back and put the hot tea in front of her.
Du Xiran's eyes were still on the screen, but he was attracted by a faint smell. He took a look into the cup and saw steam coming out of the boiling water, with wolfberries and a few chrysanthemums floating on the water.
"......"
Du Xiran raised his eyes expressionlessly: "What is this?"
“Chrysanthemum and wolfberry.”
"Of course I know. What do you mean by that?" Du Xiran narrowed his eyes. "Do you think I'm old? Do you want me to start taking care of my health?"
"No, no, I'm not complaining about my age." Ye Nanning immediately shook her head. "This is for clearing the liver and improving eyesight. You've been staring at the computer for too long. You should take care of your health."
Du Xiran snorted.
Ye Nanning put the things in her hand in front of her. These were the two bags of chrysanthemum and wolfberry that she ordered in the morning. She said carefully and caringly, "Drink less coffee and more hot water."
Seeing that the other party didn't say anything, she immediately added: "Ms. Du, you are so beautiful."
Du Xiran: "...Okay, let's go back to work."
"Okay, remember to drink it." Ye Nanning reminded him again before leaving.
After a while, Xu Huan came in to confirm the work. After staying for a while, she pointed at the coffee and said, "Boss Du, why don't you drink it? If you don't drink it now, it will get cold and not taste good."
Du Xiran glanced at the untouched coffee and asked, "Do you want some?"
Xu Huan: "If you don't want to drink, I can do it for you, hehe."
"Take it."
"Really? Then what do you drink?"
Du Xiran raised his hand, picked up his thermos cup, and said with a little pride: "This."
Xu Huan opened his mouth wide: "When did you start to take care of your health? Don't you want to be a coffee expert anymore?"
Du Xiran drank a sip of hot tea, which tasted slightly sweet and had a faint scent of chrysanthemum. He smiled happily and said, "Well, I want to live a few more years."
Xu Huan glanced at the second cup of coffee in his hand and fell silent.
We don’t have to work overtime today, so as soon as it’s time to get off work, everyone goes to the dinner location in groups.
Ye Nanning had just packed her things when Xu Huan dragged her outside: "Go go! Let's go grab a seat first."
Du Xiran was a little late because he was dealing with work. When he went out, he met several other VPs and they went together.
After arriving at the hotel, she looked around and saw her team members sitting at a table in the corner, with two empty seats next to Ye Nanning.
She was about to walk over there, but two Cheng Yaojins suddenly appeared and took her place.
Hu Jiaxu and Mingshuang sat down in those two seats and quickly started talking to Ye Nanning.
"Lao Du, let's go, there are still seats available." Lao Li pointed to another table.
Du Xiran had no choice but to follow them to that table, glancing at Ye Nanning's movements from time to time.
Hu Jiaxu didn't know what he said. Mingshuang smiled brightly, Ye Nanning also smiled like a flower, and even her team members started laughing. It was very lively.
Great, the dinner without the leaders was so happy. Du Xiran took a sip of wine angrily.
After Ye Nanning laughed, she couldn't help but look back for Du Xiran. After looking around, she finally found Du Xiran. She was holding the cup, and the male colleague next to her was pouring wine for her. Her profile was very beautiful, but she was smiling at her colleague.
Ye Nanning felt sad, turned around, and stared at the food on the table in silence. At this time, there was a piece of pig's trotter meat in the bowl, and she glanced at Mingshuang who was sitting next to her.
Ming Shuang just followed her line of sight and took a look. He picked up a piece of meat for her thoughtfully and whispered, "Tomorrow is Valentine's Day. I want to ask you to go to a movie. Do you have time?"
Ye Nanning shook her head and rejected coldly: "No."
"Why? Haven't you given up on that person yet?" Mingshuang asked.
Ye Nanning looked at her proudly and said, "Don't give up. I have succeeded."
Ming Shuang raised an eyebrow without surprise and whispered, "Congratulations, I told you, no one can help but be attracted to you."
Ye Nanning pursed her lips and looked at her curiously: "You don't seem sad?"
"Nonsense, I know you have someone you like, how can I still put all my heart on you?" Ming Shuang smiled and took the piece of meat from her bowl and fed it into his mouth, "It's just a try. If it works, it's the best. If not, you can't hurt yourself, don't you think?"
Ye Nanning nodded, and couldn't help but feel a little envious: "You are quite open-minded."
"Otherwise, I've lived for so many years in vain. Do you think my love life was in vain?" Ming Shuang smiled at her, "Don't worry, since you two have confirmed your relationship, I won't pursue you. I, Ming Shuang, am romantic but not mean. I don't want to be the third party."
Ye Nanning also smiled. In fact, she quite liked Mingshuang's bold personality, which was the type she envied. It was just that Mingshuang had been expressing his love for her before, so she had to keep her distance. Now that they had talked it out, she wanted to become real friends.
And because of her sexual orientation, she rarely talked about it with outsiders. The first time she confessed to others was when she met Wu Yuhong, and she didn't dare to speak out easily after that. Ming Shuang saw it early, which saved a lot of trouble, and she finally found a partner to talk about some topics.
"What are you going to do next?" Ye Nanning asked.
"What should I do?" Ming Shuang said indifferently, "Of course I will continue to work, but I will not give up looking for beauties. After all, you are not the only beauty in the world."
Ye Nanning smiled and said, "Yes, then I wish you to find your true love in advance."
"Thank you very much."
Mingshuang picked up the wine glass, and the two of them clinked their glasses tacitly.
Du Xiran saw this scene, his face darkened even more, and he ate his food in depression.
A colleague asked: "Old Du, do you have a lot of stories?"
Du Xiran was stunned: "What?"
"You've almost finished the plate of peanuts in front of you."
"......"
Du Xiran drank the wine awkwardly, stood up and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."
"Let me go out with you, I'm going to smoke a cigarette." said the colleague.
When Ye Nanning turned around to peek at Du Xiran again, she saw her leaving the private room with the male colleague who poured the wine. She felt confused and a little worried.
"What? Are you jealous?" A teasing voice sounded in my ears.
Ye Nanning was startled and looked at Mingshuang in panic. She put on a serious expression, but then she realized that she must have been seen. So she stopped pretending and asked tentatively, "Who are you jealous of?"
"Who else could it be? Mr. Du's." Mingshuang said in a low voice.
"How did you know?" Ye Nanning asked in surprise. She thought she didn't show any obvious behavior in normal times, and even Xu Huan, Hu Jiaxu and others didn't notice anything unusual.
Mingshuang pointed two fingers at her eyes and said with a smile: "Do you think this is just a decoration?"
Ye Nanning was silent for a moment, then exclaimed: "You have a really sharp eye."
"So, when did you succeed in getting her?" Mingshuang asked.
Ye Nanning thought for a moment and looked at her doubtfully. Mingshuang immediately said, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. We don't have any competition, and I don't want to use this kind of thing to benefit myself. This job is just for me to earn some pocket money."
The tone was crazy, but Ye Nanning was relieved. She couldn't help wanting to share her joy with others, so she covered her mouth and whispered, "During the Chinese New Year."
"Isn't that what happened in the past few days?" Ming Shuang asked, "What's going on between you two?"
Ye Nanning looked around and found that the people at the table were chatting in groups of three or four. No one was paying attention to them, so she whispered the whole story to her, of course omitting a lot of details.
When Du Xiran returned to the private room, he saw the two of them put their heads together. He didn't know what they were talking about. Ye Nanning's little mouth opened and closed, while Ming Shuang listened with great interest, smiling from time to time.
She had never seen Ye Nanning talk so much to anyone on her own initiative. Even when she was with Hu Jiaxu, it was mostly Hu Jiaxu who did the talking.
Du Xiran ate a few more peanuts in frustration.
"I didn't expect you guys were so good to talk about." Mingshuang smiled after listening to the general story.
Ye Nanning also smiled shyly and chatted with her casually while they finished the meal.
After the dinner, people left one after another, and Ye Nanning followed them out.
Hu Jiaxu complained: "Xiao Ye, you have been chatting with Ming Shuang all night, are you trying to isolate me?"
Ye Nanning: "I don't have any."
Ming Shuang said, "Didn't you and Xu Huan have a good chat?"
Hu Jiaxu chuckled. Normally he and Xu Huan were just nodding acquaintances in the company. When they sat together just now, he found that they had quite a lot of common topics and they were having a great time chatting without realizing it.
"No more talking. My taxi is here." Hu Jiaxu waved goodbye to them and ran to the side of the road.
"How are you going back?" Mingshuang looked at Ye Nanning.
Ye Nanning naturally wanted to go back with Du Xiran, but when they left, Du Xiran was still drinking with his colleagues, so she could only wait here.
"We are going our way here, do you need a ride?" Mingshuang asked.
Ye Nanning was about to refuse when she suddenly felt a weight on her wrist and someone grabbed her.
She turned her head and saw Du Xiran appearing from behind her, staring at Ming Shuang with sharp eyes and a tone that was not friendly: "No need, she will go back with me."
Mingshuang looked at them meaningfully and smiled maliciously: "That depends on Nan Ning's opinion. What if she is willing to go back with me?"
Du Xiran frowned slightly. Hearing the other party's familiar and intimate address, the spark in her heart suddenly emerged. She turned her head and asked, "Nan Ning, who do you want to go back with?"
Ye Nanning: Ahhhhhh, President Du called me Nanning, it sounds so good.
"Of course I will go back with you." Ye Nanning immediately looked at her, his burning eyes soothing the unhappiness in her heart.
"Did you hear that? She wants to go home with me." Du Xiran glanced at Mingshuang proudly, then took her two steps, slid his hand down, and easily held her hand.
Ye Nanning followed her lightly, looked back at Mingshuang, and saw Mingshuang mouthing to her: You're welcome.
Ye Nanning suddenly felt blessed and waved to her with a smile, but the next moment her hand was pulled back by Du Xiran.
"Look at the road carefully. There is nothing interesting behind you. Look at the road ahead."
"Okay." Ye Nanning smiled and looked forward. The street lights stretched the shadows of the two people very long and then merged together.
"You are not allowed to like Mingshuang now. You are mine, do you understand?" Du Xiran said seriously.
"I never liked her, Mr. Du, you look drunk."
"I don't."
"But you're walking me onto the lawn and you're almost hitting a tree."
"......"
