A few days later, May 31st was Huang Qin’s birthday.
It was Saturday, and Zhang Moyan originally wanted to take Huang Qin and Zhang Feng to the photo studio to take a set of the most popular birthday art photos, but the two elders had arranged their activities early, leaving only dinner time for them to share together. Zhang Moyan had nothing to do during the day, and when she was at home, her mind was full of activities, so she simply ran to the company to work overtime.
"Beauty, your takeaway is here again!"
The word "again" used by the girl at the front desk in the receiver was very classic. Zhang Moyan took a deep breath and stood up from his seat.
Regarding the matter of identifying Chen Guanfu, because of Zhang Moyan's attitude, the unit finally only made a conclusive statement to the public with the title "Hard work pays off, Professor Chen's 20-year search for his relatives has finally come to a successful conclusion." The article explained that at the request of the parties involved, specific information and details would not be disclosed, so the professor's search for his relatives in Japan, which had started with great fanfare, came to an abrupt end.
The news that was about to break was ultimately a smokescreen, barely causing any public outcry. Naturally, Zhang Moyan's adoptive parents knew nothing about her and Chen Guanfu's affair. Perhaps intimidated by her threats that day, Chen Guanfu remained silent. Overall, the person most affected was surprisingly Jin Xueyang.
At first, Jin Xueyang looked up and thought, "So Aunt Huang is Professor Chen's daughter? She looks so different from the one in the missing person notice..." But after Zhang Moyan looked at him hesitantly for a few seconds, he suddenly realized, "You were adopted?!"
Zhang Moyan nodded in resignation.
Then Jin Xueyang shocked China and the world for two days.
Then, Jin Xueyang started his mindless charity mode, treating Zhang Moyan as an African refugee he met on the first day. He threw food, drinks, clothes, and toiletries at her as if they were free. He even got the limited edition doll that he had ruthlessly slandered and that she had been unable to get before from scalpers at a huge price.
With the crazy compensation operation, Zhang Moyan almost thought that it was all caused by Jin Xueyang that she became an orphan.
If it were someone else, Zhang Moyan might have said "thank you, there's no need" a long time ago about Jin Xueyang's loving act, but she and Jin Xueyang are very close friends. They have talked about everything for so many years. When Zhang Moyan thought about hiding such an important thing from him, she felt that she had lost her moral integrity. Now that her friend has put aside the past and is still caring about her, she'd better be happy.
Besides, she knew Jin Xueyang's temper. If she returned the gifts to him, he would throw them into the trash in front of her. So she had to quietly check and write down the approximate amount of all the gifts, planning to return the money to Jin Xueyang on his birthday.
But as it stands now, she estimates that she will lose her year-end bonus this year.
Finally, Jin Xueyang was assigned a business trip, and Zhang Moyan thought this kind of care could be put on hold. However, Jin Xueyang found out that she was working overtime today, and the whole day he just accepted his takeout: coffee and fruit in the morning, dessert and lunch rolls in the afternoon. It was really overwhelming. At this moment, Zhang Moyan was ready for the baptism of the girl's eyes at the front desk.
The girl at the front desk was a recent college graduate, known for her curiosity. As Zhang Moyan reached the aisle, she spotted her from a distance, leaning forward in her seat, eagerly awaiting what she was about to do. Sure enough, as soon as she approached, she approached with an innocent air.
"Who is it? Who is it? The attack is so fierce!"
Zhang Moyan's hand, clutching the takeout package, trembled. Seeing the girl's excited expression, he felt that blurting out "Jin Xueyang" would be disappointing. So he cleared his throat and said, "I ordered it myself," adding, "I'm starving."
"Oh~ I'll just be the backup!" The girl smiled and sat down, looking understanding, pouring her own drink. "This one is affordable, it's all food! But the one in front that gave white roses is so romantic, I don't know how to choose."
Zhang Moyan felt his forehead twitch and knew that the only way to explain was to elaborate, so he didn't want to say much. He smiled and mentioned the takeout. As he turned to leave, his peripheral vision accidentally swept across the area between the girl's desk and the front counter, and suddenly stopped.
The girl loves chasing stars. She has posted many photos of celebrities on that vertical board since the first half of the year. Because she is quite philanthropic, the handsome men and beautiful women she posted not only come from the two fields of literature and sports, but also from China, Japan and South Korea. Unfortunately, the space is limited, and it needs to be replaced from time to time according to her preferences. She may have been doing this just now. Just to the left of the empty space she just took, Zhang Moyan unexpectedly saw a half-length photo of Zhang Xiaoxingyu.
In the photo, Xiao Xingyu is wearing a white suit, half-turning his body and looking towards the camera naturally. The light and shadow are just right. The person in the picture has sharp features, sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, a slightly raised chin and a half-smile on the corners of his mouth... It is obviously a serious portrait, but because of the outstanding appearance and relaxed feeling of the subject, it is transformed into a fashionable still.
Or the kind that outshines all others.
"Is he handsome?"
The voice of the girl at the front desk suddenly rang in her ears. Zhang Moyan retracted her gaze and found that the girl had stood up at some point and was looking at her with her head tilted.
Zhang Moyan tightened her grip on the takeaway, hiding her feelings: "Not bad."
"Is this okay?" The girl looked shocked and picked up a photo on the table. "I replaced Cha Eunwoo!"
Zhang Moyan looked sympathetically at the disgraced South Korean beauty, then glanced uncontrollably at the photo of the man in white, her eyes flickering as she asked, "How do you have a photo of Xiao Xingyu?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Moyan felt that something was wrong. Why did the tone sound so much like the tone of someone whose man had been robbed?
Luckily, the girl didn't feel that way. She happily extended a finger and touched the photo of Xiao Xingyu, saying, "This is a gift from the head of the entertainment department! He's one of the stars of a new show they're promoting, but you'd never guess he's not planning on becoming a celebrity! He's involved in the inheritance of intangible cultural heritage, a master craftsman! This photo is for the merchandise the entertainment department is planning to release."
