Chapter 35: Overtime? They volunteered.



"Sister, there are so many people here and the place is so big!" Lu Mengmeng followed Lu Manman with a look of curiosity on her face.

Lu Manman chuckled and took Lu Mengmeng to a room. "This is the reception room. Sit down for a while and drink some water. I'll be back soon."

Lu Mengmeng nodded, and after Lu Manman left, she sat on the sofa and played with her phone.

Not long after, a woman knocked on the door and came in, put down a cup of coffee and left.

Lu Mengmeng frowned. She didn't like coffee, so she didn't touch the cup of coffee.

When Lu Manman appeared in front of Lu Mengmeng again, a full hour had passed.

"Sister." Lu Mengmeng looked at Lu Manman resentfully, "If you don't get off work soon, I'm going to starve to death!"

Lu Manman had changed her clothes at this time, wearing casual clothes, similar to Lu Mengmeng's usual outfit.

"By the way, I just noticed that the clothes you are wearing today are weird." Lu Manman looked at Lu Mengmeng, and her eyes inadvertently glanced at the cup of coffee on the coffee table.

"I asked our receptionist to bring you a glass of water. I guess she was worried that you'd find it bland, so she poured you a cup of coffee." Lu Manman said helplessly, "She doesn't know you can't drink coffee."

Lu Mengmeng smiled brightly, "It doesn't matter! I'm hungry. No matter what water you ask her to bring me, I can't fill myself up with just water!"

The two walked out of the room, one in front and one behind. Lu Mengmeng huddled next to Lu Manman and said, "I've found all the clothes I've hidden in the bottom of the closet!"

Then, Lu Mengmeng smiled and told Lu Manman her immature thoughts.

Lu Manman's smile was very unladylike, and fortunately there was no one else in the elevator.

"What are you thinking about in your little head every day?" Lu Manman reached out and tapped Lu Mengmeng's head gently.

This kind of plot only appears in TV dramas and novels, such as looking down on others with dog eyes and pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger. There is no such thing in reality.

The two sisters left the company chatting and laughing, and the other employees of the company then packed up and went home.

It's hard to follow such a workaholic boss.

The two of them came to a barbecue restaurant. Although the restaurant was small, there were many people. People waiting for their numbers to be called at the door were chatting or playing Gobang. It was very lively.

"There are so many people." Lu Mengmeng subconsciously didn't want to eat here. She hated waiting the most.

Lu Manman went up to negotiate with the waiter, took out a note and said to Lu Mengmeng, "It's a table for two. There's no one in front of us. We'll be there soon."

Lu Mengmeng immediately felt relieved. "Sister, we haven't played Gobang in a long time. Shall we play two games today?"

"Okay!" Lu Manman looked at Lu Mengmeng lovingly, "Don't cry if you lose."

Lu Mengmeng was sweating profusely. "I'm already so old, how could I possibly cry?"

The two sat down and played two games. As expected, Lu Mengmeng was the loser every time.

"Oh, I don't want to play anymore. I'm so hungry that I feel dizzy." Lu Mengmeng threw down the chess piece and said dissatisfiedly.

Lu Manman chuckled. She knew that Lu Mengmeng's temper would not allow her to play three games at most, but she couldn't even play two games. She still overestimated her.

"It's our turn now. Let's go, little greedy cat." Lu Manman saw the waiter coming to call the number, and then said to Lu Mengmeng.

After ordering, Lu Manman leaned forward and said to Lu Mengmeng, who was sitting opposite her, "Girl, your body clock has been really messed up lately! You went to bed so late last night and woke up so early, what were you doing?"

Lu Mengmeng knew that Lu Manman was talking about Ling Yingjun, so she didn't hide anything and told him everything.

We are family, so it’s okay if they know.

Lu Mengmeng's feelings sounded a bit sour to Lu Manman. Her own girlfriend already had a boyfriend, but she...

Still single.

"I'm so envious! It's so great to be young." Lu Manman looked at Lu Mengmeng jokingly, "Show off your affection~(???) I don't know who told me a while ago that I had nothing to do with Ling Yingjun at all. It's only been a few days!"

It's only been a few days and it's already so sticky and disgusting.

Lu Mengmeng was shy. Seeing a hint of loneliness in the corner of Lu Manman's eyes, she knew in her heart that she must be sad again, so she quickly changed the subject.

"Sister, you are busy so late every day. Do other people have to stay with you so late before getting off work?" Lu Mengmeng asked.

She still remembered that when she followed Lu Manman away, the little girls looked at her with very kind eyes.

The corners of Lu Manman's mouth twitched slightly, and she said seriously, "As for this overtime issue, they are all voluntary."

Lu Mengmeng raised her eyebrows slightly, "Voluntary?"

Lu Manman coughed dryly at the skeptical tone and said, "It's for overtime pay."

That's why it's voluntary.

Lu Mengmeng said, "Wouldn't it be too hard to do this every day?"

Lu Manman shook her head and said with a smile: "If it's not hard work, why would there be any reward? Let's not talk about this anymore, the food is ready."

Lu Mengmeng looked up and saw the waiter pushing a cart with the ordered meat.

A lot of meat.

Lu Mengmeng's attention was instantly diverted.

The two men put the meat on the small stove. The charcoal fire was just right. The small stove kept turning and the meat turned back and forth on the stove.

"Sister, you ordered so much, what if we can't finish it?" Lu Mengmeng looked at the plate after plate of food on the cart next to them. How could the two of them possibly finish it?

"Don't worry, you can finish eating!" Lu Manman looked at Lu Mengmeng deeply, "I believe you."

I believe that your appetite can handle it.

Lu Mengmeng:! ?

Sister, your eyes make me feel guilty!

"By the way, how long did it take you to write this book? When will you start a new book?" Lu Manman suddenly remembered something and asked.

Lu Mengmeng exclaimed, "You really read my book!"

She said in the book that the book was about to be completed. If my sister knew about it, she must have read it.

"I don't know what to write in the new book yet. Brother Yingjun is very busy recently and has no time to help me." Lu Mengmeng felt a headache when she mentioned the new book.

Ling Yingjun had previously helped with difficult tasks such as material selection, conception, plot, title, introduction and beginning.

If Lu Mengmeng were to think for herself now, she wouldn’t have the ability to do so.

After all, she is just a newbie in online literature and has only been writing books for half a year.

So I'll write this book now, and wait until Ling Yingjun is no longer busy with the internet cleaning campaign.

"You can't always count on him to help you. You have to use your brain when you need it." Lu Manman looked at the skewers of meat in front of her and saw that they were almost grilled. She took a few skewers and put them on the plate of Lu Mengmeng opposite her.

Lu Mengmeng looked at Lu Manman resentfully, "Sister, are you saying I'm stupid?"

Lu Manman stretched out a finger and shook it, "I clearly said laziness."

There's a difference between being too lazy to use your brain and having no brain at all.

Lu Mengmeng: Flip the table (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻!

Believe it or not, I will bite you!

Lu Manman was busy preparing the barbecue in front of her. "Aren't you almost fainting from hunger? How come you still have so much energy to talk?"
