After so many hilarious incidents this morning, Anning laughed all the way. Leiting's face turned green and red in turns. Anning cupped his face in her hands, looking at his embarrassed expressions, laughing so hard her jaw almost dropped. Leiting rubbed Anning's stomach, but Anning was already laughing so hard her stomach hurt.
Thunder: "Baby, stop laughing..."
An Ning: "Okay, Lei Ting, I can only say you're too charming. Both men and women like you."
Thunder: "Jenny... I really..."
Anning: "Haha, Jenny doesn't like someone easily, which means you've really won him over in some ways."
Thunder: "No, what would I do with him? He looks scared. I want you, I want you."
Anning: "Alright, alright, how annoying! Take a look at this equipment by the door, and you'll be free to come and go from the bakery from now on."
Thunder: "Okay..."
They finally arrived at the bakery, and Lei Ting helped An Ning out of the car. The two walked to An Ning's office. Along the way, the workshops and warehouses were bustling with employees working in an orderly fashion. Lei Ting looked around and nodded in approval; it was well-organized and efficient.
Anning: "I've handed over all the company's affairs to Qingqing and Zhongjing. They're a husband and wife team, and they're very dedicated to their work. So, apart from me, all the other employees in the company listen to them. Come and meet them in a bit."
Thunder: "Okay..."
Anning led Leiting to her office, which was located in the attic on the top floor of the bakery. It required taking a small elevator and crouching down to get in. Upon entering, there was a very attractive pink cat-shaped sofa, next to which were green rattan chairs for guests. Files, computers, books, and samples were neatly arranged on the wooden brown desk. In one corner of the desk, several pots of succulent plants were lush and green, which Anning took good care of.
Anning bent down and sprayed water on the succulents, while Leiting carefully looked around her office.
Thunder: "Why isn't there a tea table in this office? There is one in the private room of the dessert shop."
Anning: "My mother never lets me do business with people at the bakery, so there was no tea table set up."
Thunder: "Hmm, this sofa looks quite unique!"
Anning: "Hehe, I really like this sofa. Why don't you lie down on it and try it out?"
Thunder: "Okay... Oops..."
This mischievous Anning, if the mechanism wasn't activated, Lei Ting would sink right in as soon as he sat down, his entire body enveloped by the cat's claws. Lei Ting was initially frightened, but then felt an immense sense of satisfaction. The springs in the cat's claws activated, relaxing Lei Ting's spine. Lei Ting tried to sit up, but Anning took off her shoes and playfully sat on Lei Ting's stomach. Thus, the two of them sank deeper and deeper into the sofa, pressing against the springs.
Thunder: "Haha... Anning, you're so naughty, I've been hugged by a cat's paw."
Anning: "Comfortable, isn't it! When I'm stressed, I like to lie on the cat's paws. It's very stress-relieving."
Thunder: "It really relieves stress..."
Lei Ting reached up, and An Ning playfully teased him, sometimes pressing her face against his and sometimes looking away. Knock, knock, knock—there was a knock on the door. An Ning quickly got up.
Anning: "It might be Qingqing and Zhongjing who have arrived. Get up quickly."
Anning pulled Leiting and the other person to straighten their clothes. Anning sat down at the desk, and then gently entered with Zhongjing.
Qingqing: "President An, what's the matter?"
An Ning: "This is Lei Ting, my boyfriend. You and Zhong Jing should come and meet him."
Gently: "Hello..."
Zhongjing: "Thunder? President An?"
Anning: "Yes, he's my ex-husband... We've made up..."
Qingqing: "Hello, I'm the manager of An's Bakery. My name is Qingqing. It's nice to meet you."
Zhongjing: "Hello, my name is Zhongjing, and I am the honorary manager of the baking factory."
Thunder: "Hello..."
Lei Ting nodded politely but did not step forward to shake hands. Qingqing and Zhongjing did not say much either. Qingqing and Zhongjing were both overseas Chinese and used to work for An Yiyang and Han Yi, handling some of Han Yi's affairs. Han Yi found them reliable and specially asked them to assist An Ning. With the two of them, An Ning's business flourished. However, Lei Ting did not feel any warmth towards these two people. They were just workers, and that was all he felt for them.
After gently explaining some accounting matters to Anning, Zhongjing looked Leiting up and down. Leiting stepped forward and shook hands with him, and Zhongjing spoke to Leiting politely.
Zhongjing: "General Manager Lei's demeanor is as impressive as ever."
Thunder: "We met at my wedding with Anning, didn't we?"
Zhongjing: "Yes, Mr. Lei has a good memory."
Lei Ting: "You and Qingqing got married earlier than Anning and I. Do you have children yet?"
Zhongjing: "We don't have children yet. Our main focus right now is our business. Our primary task is to help Boss An manage the bakery."
Lei Ting: "Hmm, that's good. An Ning, tell the finance department to give Qing Qing and Zhong Jing a 30% raise in their salaries."
Anning: "Okay."
After Lei Ting finished speaking, Zhong Jing and Qing Qing showed no reaction, maintaining their work-oriented attitudes. Lei Ting, however, stepped aside to stand next to An Ning, picked up a detailed statement, and examined it. The accounts were meticulous and flawless—not bad at all; worthy of being Han Yi's person planted beside An Ning. Lei Ting knew that such a person couldn't be bought with money; he was very loyal.
After Anning explained some work details to Qingqing, Qingqing nodded.
Anning: "I'm all set. You've all worked hard, go ahead and get back to work!"
Qingqing/Zhongjing: "Goodbye, President An."
Lei Ting massaged An Ning's shoulders and watched them leave. Qing Qing and Zhong Jing left with suspicion. Qing Qing knew Han Yi's feelings for Lei Ting, but she didn't expect to see him again in An Ning's office. However, neither of them asked about their private matters. After they left, Lei Ting told An Ning his thoughts on Qing Qing and Zhong Jing.
