Su Xiaowan had finished her exams, and Lin Chen was driving her out to eat.
How can you answer a phone while driving? That's not safe.
"Cough cough cough..."
"What's wrong, Xiao Wan? Have you caught a cold?"
"It's gotten colder lately, I guess I caught a cold."
"Look at you, you spend all your time studying in the library and don't even have time to go out and buy clothes. No wonder you caught a cold. I'll buy you some warmer clothes after we finish eating."
"I was just thinking that as your company grows bigger and bigger, my abilities as the CFO need to keep up."
"What are you worried about? I believe in your abilities. Besides, as a manager, you don't actually need to be an expert in professional knowledge. What you need to do is to know how to manage the talents under your command."
Su Xiaowan pondered for a moment: "Is that so? Then I'll apply for a double degree in management."
"Uh, that's not what I meant."
"Hehe, I know you're doing this for my own good. Learning more is never a bad thing."
"Hehe, you're never too old to learn, right?"
"You're the old one, hmph."
What would you like to eat?
"Anything is fine."
"You've caught a cold, eat something light. There's a seafood congee place in the mall up ahead, let's go there."
Lin Chen drove the car to the underground parking lot of the mall, and then took Su Xiaowan there in the evening, where they ordered a sea cucumber congee.
After the two finished eating, Lin Chen accompanied Su Xiaowan to pick out several outfits, ranging from sweaters to down jackets.
"Lin Chen, I'll go to the company with you this afternoon."
"You have a cold, so don't go to the company. Go back to your dorm and rest."
"My roommates have all gone home after their exams, so I'm the only one left."
"Then... let's go to 1901. You're familiar with it. Anrou told me that you always went to sleep with her when I was away on business?"
"Yeah, hehe, it's not safe for Sister Anrou to live alone."
"That's true, I have to thank you. Come to my house for dinner when you come back for Chinese New Year, my mom will definitely give you a chicken leg."
Afterwards, Lin Chen took Su Xiaowan to 1901.
"Then you should rest here. I'm going to the company now. I'll take you out for dinner when I get back tonight."
"Okay, sure."
After Lin Chen left, Su Xiaowan went into An Rou's room.
"Huh? Hasn't Sister Anrou changed the sheets lately? She's probably too busy with work."
Then, she took off all four bedding pieces from An Rou's bed and went to Lin Chen's room, intending to take off Lin Chen's bedding pieces as well and throw them in the washing machine together.
However, when she was unpacking Lin Chen's four-piece bedding set, she smelled a familiar scent, but unfortunately she had a cold and her nose was stuffy, so she couldn't smell it.
Then she threw all four bedding sets on their bed into the washing machine and washed them together, and then put on new bedding sets.
After taking a cold medicine, Su Xiaowan fell asleep on Lin Chen's bed.
Lin Chen had just arrived at the Deji Building when he received a call from Lei Jun.
"Brother Lin, are you at the company? Come to the 27th floor, I'd like to have a meeting to discuss some details about the Xiaomi Mi 2."
"Okay, I just got back from outside, I'll come right up."
So Lin Chen took the elevator directly to the 27th floor.
As Lin Chen stepped into the elevator, the elevator door on the other side opened, and An Rou walked out.
"Lin Chen should have finished his exams by now. He's not at the company; he's probably at home catching up on sleep. I'm here to give him a surprise."
When Lin Chen arrived on the 27th floor, Lei Jun pulled him into the conference room.
Next came the Q&A session with the Xiaomi Mi 2 R&D team.
For the Xiaomi Mi 2, Lin Chen took out the design blueprints for the full-screen display, intending to showcase the full-screen design to the world ahead of schedule, skipping the incremental design innovations.
"Mr. Lin, where should we put the front-facing camera on this full-screen display?"
"Mr. Lin, how should the home button be designed for this full-screen display?"
"Mr. Lin, how should the earpiece be designed for this full-screen display?"
...
After An Rou returned to 1901, she quietly sneaked into Lin Chen's room and, sure enough, saw someone lying on the bed.
Hehe, you little rascal, I caught you.
An Rou suddenly pounced on the person on the bed and hugged them tightly.
"ah!"
"ah!"
Both of them shouted.
"Sister Anrou?"
"Xiao Wan?"
"Sister Anrou, are you back from get off work? How did you know I was sleeping here? Did Lin Chen tell you?"
"Ahem, yes...yes, Xiao Wan, have you finished your exams?"
"Yeah, I finished the exam this morning. I have a bit of a cold, so Lin Chen told me to sleep and rest here for a bit."
"Then...then I'll go get you a cup of hot water."
An Rou hurriedly left the room, touched her cheeks, which were burning red; she was incredibly embarrassed.
Lin Chen answered their questions one by one, and the Q&A session lasted until five o'clock.
"Alright, alright everyone, it's time to leave work, please let me go."
After saying that, Lin Chen rushed out of the conference room and ran away as fast as he could.
Once in the car, Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief. Remembering that An Rou might still be at the company, he took out his phone and called her.
"Hey, Anrou, I'm in the garage. Just come down."
"You went to the company? I've been back for ages."
"Oh? You went back? Okay, I'll drive back now."
"Why didn't you say Xiao Wan was here? You made me..."
"What?"
"Oh, it's nothing, you can drive now."
When Lin Chen returned home, he saw that An Rou had already prepared the meal.
"I was just thinking of going out to eat, but I didn't expect you to have already cooked."
An Rou thought to herself, "That's right, I'm so embarrassed, I have to find something to do."
"Come wash your hands and eat."
"Xiao Wan, is your cold any better?"
"I'm much better. Look at you, you even asked Sister Anrou to come back this afternoon to take care of me. Isn't that interfering with your work?"
"Huh? Hmm? Oh! Hmm! It's nothing, the company isn't busy today."
Lin Chen glanced at An Rou, who gave an awkward smile.
The meal was finished in an awkward atmosphere.
Lin Chen took the initiative to do the dishes.
Anrou walked in while I was washing dishes in the kitchen.
What happened this afternoon?
An Rou explained the situation with some embarrassment.
Lin Chen almost burst out laughing after hearing this, but An Rou patted him and made him behave.
"How will you sleep tonight?"
"I'll sleep with Xiaowan. Should I let Xiaowan sleep alone?"
"All right."
Su Xiaowan took her cold medicine and watched TV. By the time Lin Chen came out of the kitchen after washing the dishes, she was already asleep on the sofa.
"Xiao Wan, Xiao Wan, don't sleep on the sofa, go to bed."
"oh."
Su Xiaowan mumbled an agreement, got up, and then went to Lin Chen's bed and lay down.
