With a hint of pride and feigned humility, he waved his hand and said, "Hey, don't be ashamed of yourselves. After all, your spiritual power is also very strong. Sometimes you can even defeat us monsters."
Little Cabbage said from the side, "Yes, everything has its counterpart, and you guys are really amazing too."
Yue Jiuling, looking displeased, walked into Lao Yu's office with Ya Zi. Lao Yu sat in his office chair, looking at the two of them sternly, and said:
"Tell me, why did you fight? I can turn a blind eye to you slacking off at work all the time, but this fight in the office is something I have to punish severely! One week's salary deducted from each of you!"
Ya Zi was the first to speak. He angrily pointed at Yue Jiuling and complained, "Director, this is not my fault. It's all because of this annoying girl. She splashed water on me first!"
Yue Jiuling was immediately displeased upon hearing this. The other person hadn't done it on purpose at all; in fact, it was because he got so close that the accident happened. This person had clearly approached on purpose!
"Director, I didn't mean to splash water on him. Who knew he was following me? I turned around after getting the water and bumped into him. He was clearly trying to stage an accident! And he was the one who hit me!"
"I'd try to scam you? I'm not sick, why would I try to scam you!"
Yue Jiuling accused Ya Zi of staging an accident, which angered Ya Zi. It was clear that this woman had deliberately tried to splash water on him, yet she dared to accuse him of staging an accident!
"Who knows if you're sick or not? I suspect you're just trying to scam me!"
Ya Zi angrily retorted, "I didn't!"
Yue Jiuling glared: "You do have it!"
"Alright! Stop arguing!" Old Yu, who was finally getting a headache from their bickering, stopped them and said to Yue Jiuling, "Can you two stop being so childish? How old are you? It's just that you accidentally spilled water on someone. Apologize and that's enough. Why make such a fuss?"
Director Yu pointed at Ya Zi: "And you, you're a man. As a man, you shouldn't be so petty. It's just that water got splashed on your clothes. A little magic can dry them. Why did you hit someone?"
The two men remained silent after being scolded by Lao Yu, though they still glared at each other. In the end, Lao Yu reconciled them, saying, "Alright, it's not a big deal. Just apologize to each other and leave. Don't let it affect your work."
Yue Jiuling realized that Ya Zi was there to replace her, and fearing that Ya Zi might not want to go to work and leave, she wouldn't be able to leave either. So she lowered her head first and said, "I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to splash water on you. I'm sorry."
When Ya Zi saw that Yue Jiuling had lowered her head, although he was still very angry, he had no choice but to lower his head as well. Because he was afraid of losing his job and starving to death, he also said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have started it."
Director Yu looked at the two of them with satisfaction: "Alright, that's how it should be. Everyone should get along well and make money together. Now, everyone, go out."
Hearing the section chief tell them to leave, the two were about to go out when Old Yu said, "By the way, Jiuling, make sure you coordinate well with Comrade Long Er. He's here to take over your shift."
"OK."
After the two left, Yue Jiuling returned to her seat, while Ya Zi went straight to the restroom. Yue Jiuling guessed that he was probably going to dry his clothes.
As soon as Bai Xinyu saw Yue Jiuling come out, she immediately squeezed over and hugged her shoulder, saying, "Hey, what's going on with you two?"
The other colleagues also looked at Yue Jiuling with gossipy eyes, their faces full of anticipation, as if they were saying, "We all want to hear the gossip, hurry up and tell us!"
Little Cabbage also asked, "Sister Jiuling, what exactly happened between you and Brother Long Er? Why were you fighting?"
Yue Jiuling pouted: "Heh, I was getting hot water at the tea room when Long Er, that idiot, I don't know if he's gone crazy or what, followed behind me. I turned around and bumped into him, and then the hot water soaked his clothes."
I was just about to apologize when this idiot accused me of doing it on purpose. Before I could even accuse him of faking an accident, he attacked me first! Can you believe how infuriating that is?
"Oh, I see. But you guys are something else, fighting over such a trivial matter."
Ye Dongfeng chuckled after hearing the gossip.
Mu Xiaoyi shook her head: "Tsk tsk, actually I think you two are really like a pair of sworn enemies. Last time at the hot pot restaurant, you fought because of cutting in line, and this time you fought over such a small thing. Tsk tsk~ You have the same bad temper, so alike."
Yue Jiuling rolled her eyes at the bathroom without saying a word.
