Chapter 89: Waiting for the Rabbit
After a brief moment of surprise, Lin You put on a calm expression.
"I don't think so. He's just a junior student. Mr. Shi, are you jealous?"
Shi Jingyuan remained silent. A smart person would not ask too many questions about sensitive issues.
He curled his lips and said, "Still calling me Mr. Shi?"
Lin You blinked his eyes and pretended to be dumbfounded. "Then what should I call you?"
Shi Jingyuan raised his hand and pinched her cheek, and was surprised to find that it felt quite good.
"Call me... Jingyuan."

This is the first time in two years that Lin You has skipped work for personal reasons.
Even in a retirement place like the Logistics Department, Lin You always abides by his duties and never does anything out of line.
So even though Shi Jingyuan had asked He Xuan to help find an excuse in advance, saying that Lin You was temporarily transferred to a field job, Lin You still couldn't help feeling guilty when facing a group of colleagues who were just watching.
Especially the two interns, who surrounded her during afternoon tea, as if trying to get some gossip out of her.
However, Lin You seemed to be a man of few words, and even if he did say a few words, they were very careful. Seeing that they had no chance to find out anything, the two interns left in disappointment.
As soon as they left, the smile on Lin You's face completely collapsed.
From the time I met Shi Jingyuan yesterday until now, a full forty-one hours have passed.
During these forty-one hours, her fake smile almost fooled herself.
When there was no one around, she couldn't smile at all.
In her mind, what happened during the interview yesterday morning was still on her mind, and every scene was filled with unbearable hatred.
But all she could do now was wait for An An and her little sisters to come to her on their own initiative.
An expert once said that violence can be addictive. Since these girls have found a toy that allows them to vent their violence, they are reluctant to give it up easily until the toy is broken.
Lin You thought that judging from the girls' skillful movements, this day would not be long.
After drinking a cup of coffee, afternoon tea time is just over.
Lin You got up and returned to the logistics department, sat at his workstation, and put on a fake smile again.
She thought about it, then picked up her phone and sent Shi Jingyuan an emoticon package. The emoticon package was made with Hu Baoer's avatar, which was just a meow, with no special meaning.

In the conference room, Shi Jingyuan had just finished listening to a senior executive's report when the phone screen on the desk lit up.
He picked up his phone and took a look. When he saw the cute emoticons, he couldn't help but smile.
He Xuan, who was sitting far away, happened to see this scene and immediately understood.
Shi Jingyuan did not reply to the message at that time. After the meeting, he returned to the office and sent a message back to Lin You.
"After get off work, wait for me in the underground garage."
Simple words, in a commanding tone.
When Lin You received this message, his expression turned cold, and a flash of sarcasm appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Lin You had thought that An An and her young ladies would not be able to endure it for long, but she did not expect that they could no longer hold back after just one day.
As get off work was about to end, Lin You received a video from an unfamiliar number.
It was the part that was filmed when she was being abused, her body in better shape, from fair to covered in ink, and the expression on her face was both pitiful and distorted.
There are also several girls laughing in the video, coupled with Lin You's screams at the time. It is a video that can easily explode the world if it is posted on the Internet.
Manager Hu just walked out of the office and heard the screams and laughter coming from her phone. He asked as he walked:
"Xiao Lin, what are you looking at? That sound is scary."
Lin You turned off the video before Manager Hu approached her workstation. She looked up and chuckled, "There's a video online about school bullying. It's quite scary. Kids these days are too violent and what they do is inhumane."
Manager Hu's son is already in college. He has carefully nurtured his son, and school bullying is a topic that every parent cannot tolerate.
Manager Hu, clutching his thermos, voiced his indignant opinion, "Exactly. If it were me, those kids who bully should be locked up in a separate school and never released to harm society."
"Some children are so rotten at the root that they will never learn well in their entire lives."
Lin You nodded with a stiff smile, "You're right. We can't be soft on these people. We'd better kill them all at once."
Manager Hu nodded, but suddenly stared at her blankly for a few seconds, "Xiao Lin, why do I feel like you're a little different from before?"
"Ah? Really?" Lin You's smile remained undimmed as he jokingly asked, "Did I change my lipstick color?"
Manager Hu sighed doubtfully, "Maybe. Doesn't he understand you women? They're all similar colors, so why do you all have to buy so many lipsticks?"
He muttered a few more words before leaving Lin You's workstation.
Lin You turned on his phone again and called back the phone number that had just sent the video.
The call was connected, and it was the voice of one of the girls.
"Come to the address I sent you at 9 pm. If you don't come, we'll post this video online."
After saying that, she hung up the phone without waiting for Lin You's answer.
Lin You glanced at the address. It was on a bar street, so this should be a bar?

In the underground garage, Shi Jingyuan sat in the driver's seat and looked at his watch several times before Lin You walked out of the elevator.
She looked around and saw that there were no other colleagues around, so she trotted to his car.
Shi Jingyuan opened the car door and Lin You got in. Before Shi Jingyuan could speak, she leaned forward and kissed him on the cheek.
"Late compensation."
Shi Jingyuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "So, from now on, you can be late every time?"
Lin You rolled his eyes at him and smiled playfully, "You wish."
Shi Jingyuan smiled faintly and said nothing. He raised his hand and touched her head before starting the car. "I'll take you to eat something good today."
Lin You blinked, his face full of longing. "Then I'm really looking forward to it. If it makes you feel good, it must be very, very delicious."
When Shi Jingyuan heard this, a meaningful smile appeared on his face.
Half an hour later, the car stopped downstairs of his apartment building near his company.
He pulled Lin You's arm and took the elevator directly into the apartment.
Lin You was still confused when Shi Jingyuan pressed him against the door panel as soon as he entered.
His breath was filled with suppressed desire, and as he spoke, his lips brushed against her ears intentionally or unintentionally.
"Okay, now you can eat."
Lin You looked at the empty apartment and didn't understand what he meant.
Did he order restaurant delivery in advance?
Lin You's eyes were filled with doubt. "I don't see any food. What do you want me to eat?"
