She couldn't help but ask, "Are you full?"
"..." Gu Rongqi was silent for a while before replying, "I'm full."
"If you're still hungry, I have some snacks here." She took some snacks out of the drawer under the coffee table.
"...No need, I'm really full."
Seeing that Gu Rongqi refused, Cheng Qicai didn't try to persuade him further and simply cleared the table of dishes.
When she finished washing the dishes and came out, she saw Gu Rongqi standing in front of the cabinet, holding her pinchable toy.
She walked over and handed him the peach one, saying, "This one feels the best; you can try it."
Gu Rongqi took it, squeezed it, and found it soft, tender, and pink. It reminded him of Cheng Qicai blushing on the beach that day.
Cheng Qicai squeezed the egg yolk in her hand. "This egg yolk can spit out something, and it will retract when you let go..."
"A rabbit will appear on the leaves of this carrot." Cheng Qicai pinched it again.
She introduced them to him one by one, as if explaining some kind of treasure.
"They're all very interesting."
"Right?" Cheng Qicai finished her introduction and went to sit on the sofa.
Actually, she wanted to lie down, but with Gu Rongqi there, she still had to maintain a certain image.
Gu Rongqi played for a while, then came over. He looked down at Cheng Qicai and said, "Sorry, I have something to do, so I'll head back first today. I'll draw the design next time, okay?"
"It's alright, you can go back if you need to. You can come and have the design done anytime, there's no rush," Cheng Qicai said. She stood up and saw him to the elevator.
Cheng Qicai saw Gu Rongqi walk into the elevator somewhat slowly, but then thought that she was probably overthinking it.
She waved to him, "Goodbye."
"Goodbye." Gu Rongqi nodded in the elevator.
The elevator doors closed, and Gu Rongqi slowly walked out of the stairwell and onto the road.
Then he raised his right hand and rubbed it on his abdomen.
...
With this week's work over, Cheng Qicai's job was finally coming to an end. She invited a few colleagues she got along well with at the company to go out for a farewell dinner.
By the last day, she didn't have much work left to do.
When Lin Fengjie saw her, he said with some emotion, "I didn't expect you to leave so soon. Thinking back to when you came, the misunderstanding we made is still quite funny."
Cheng Qicai remembered what he said and recalled how funny it was back then.
"Yes, I kept working overtime afterwards, and I was a little resentful at the time."
"Don't you even think about why you're working overtime? You didn't know anything when you first came here, and you were slow at doing things. Wasn't the workload I assigned you only half of what you're doing now?"
"Later I found out that I didn't know anything back then, and I have to thank Brother Lin for teaching me." Cheng Qicai paused, "Today, you can order whatever you want to eat, so you can eat your fill."
Lin Fengjie burst out laughing, "Haha, of course! Who told you to resign without a word!"
As Cheng Qicai was about to leave today, she still felt a little melancholy. Although she usually said whoever was going to take this lousy class, she still felt uneasy when it came time to leave.
Even Ms. Yun and the others dared not tell her about her resignation. If she found out, they would have their ears twisted off and be scolded terribly.
Not to mention starting a business, which is something she absolutely cannot mention until it's done right. If she makes money, that's fine, but if she loses money, she's finished.
She planned to tell them if she made money, and if she lost money, she would go back to working hard.
Moreover, another reason she resigned at the time was to avoid Gu Rongqi, but now, she's not sure what their current relationship is all about...
He had another falling out with his parents...
