Song Mai found this person boring and ignored her.
Zheng Yao wouldn't give up, and continued in a sarcastic tone: "How come some people find men with rich families, while others find men who are penniless? What's the use of finding such men? Do you really think that love can sustain you?"
Song Mai suddenly turned around, her gaze sharp as she looked at her, and said, word by word, "As long as you're willing to work hard, you'll make money sooner or later. You're so eager to marry a rich man, but are you marrying money or a person?"
"you!"
Zheng Yao was speechless for a moment, and was so angry that she almost bit her molars to pieces.
"Can't I have both the person and the money?!"
Song Mai chuckled, "Of course! How about I talk to my parents and introduce you to that man who can offer a dowry of 500,000 yuan in one go?"
Upon hearing this, Zheng Yao recalled the lewd old man who had last appeared at the company and made unwanted advances towards Song Mai.
I felt nauseous for a moment and almost vomited.
Are you out of your mind? You're introducing someone to me that you wouldn't even want yourself?
Song Mai shrugged. "You two are a perfect match, a handsome man and a beautiful woman."
After saying that, she left gracefully.
"Songmai!"
Zheng Yao's loud shout came from behind.
Lin Ran from the Spanish Department couldn't help but give her a thumbs up.
"Your swearing is really vulgar."
As Song Mai was leaving get off work in the evening, she saw Chu Xing at the company's front desk, looking rather grumpy.
The man sat on the sofa fiddling with his phone, while Zheng Yao swarmed around him like a fly that wouldn't leave, asking him all sorts of questions.
"Handsome, what do you do for a living?"
When did you and Song Mai get married?
"Song Mai's family is a bottomless pit. How much money do you have that you dare to marry Song Mai?"
Chu Xing completely ignored her meaning; with each word she spoke, his brows furrowed even more deeply.
His frustration was written all over his face.
Zheng Yao seemed oblivious to this and simply sat down next to Chu Xing.
While making conversation, she took the opportunity to get closer to the man.
This man may be poor, but he's undeniably handsome.
She's never seen a guy of this caliber in all these years.
No wonder Song Mai was willing to let him live off her.
Seeing that the man didn't speak for a long time, Zheng Yao boldly put her hand on his leg.
"Handsome, say something!"
However, the moment her hand touched Chu Xing, the man slapped her hand away, then stood up abruptly, his face as black as ink.
"roll!"
Zheng Yao was startled. "Is it really that big of a deal? I just touched you. I'm no worse than Song Mai. If she can touch me, why can't I?"
Chu Xing's eyes were like knives:
"Have self-respect."
Zheng Yao originally just wanted to find out about his personal situation so that she could make fun of Song Mai later.
Unexpectedly, this man seemed to possess some kind of magic, becoming more and more handsome the more she looked at him, and she couldn't help but reach out and touch him.
But his reaction was so strong that it only fueled her desire to conquer him.
She's determined to get her hands on this man!
She chuckled lightly: "How much money did Song Mai spend on you? I can spend money on you too. She's just a poor wretch and can't give you anything. Why don't you consider me? I'm much more interesting than Song Mai."
Zheng Yao's tone rose, and she emphasized the last few words, emphasizing each one.
She raised an eyebrow and looked at Chu Xing, her eyes filled with an intense, undisguised provocation.
"Slap! Slap! Slap!"
Just then, a round of applause rang out, and Zheng Yao subconsciously looked toward the source of the sound.
Suddenly, Song Mai was seen standing not far away with her arms crossed.
It was unclear how long she had been standing there, but the look in her eyes as she gazed at Zheng Yao was full of profound meaning.
"So you don't like rich men after all; you like other people's husbands."
Zheng Yao was immediately enraged and embarrassed, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
It was right around the time people were leaving get off work, and when she shouted that, a lot of people gathered around to watch.
Song Mai sneered: "You know best whether I'm lying or not, and the front desk's surveillance footage knows best. Why don't we pull up the footage and let everyone see what you just did!"
Upon hearing this, a hint of panic flashed in Zheng Yao's eyes.
Several onlookers, eager for a good show, joined in the commotion:
"Exactly, let's just check the surveillance footage to avoid wrongly accusing anyone. We still have some time, so let's take a look together."
Zheng Yao's heart skipped a beat, but she stubbornly retorted, "What business is it of yours! You're off work, hurry up and go home! Let's go, let's go!"
Without bothering to change out of her work clothes, she grabbed her bag and ran off.
Song Mai curled her lips in disdain.
It's nothing but bluster and cowardice.
Chu Xing had been standing silently to the side, but this time he could see clearly.
Song Mai didn't say a word, but he could still hear her talking.
It was her voice; he couldn't be mistaken.
Could it be that he really has auditory hallucinations?
Once Zheng Yao left, everyone felt the fun was over and dispersed.
Lin Ran put her arm around Song Mai's shoulder, and Song Mai sighed softly.
"What's wrong?"
Song Mai shook her head. "I used to think she just liked to cause trouble, but I didn't realize she had such a moral problem."
Lin Ran clicked her tongue: "Who told you to eat so well? No wonder Zheng Yao couldn't resist. I'm leaving now, so as not to take up any more of your time, you two young couple."
After Lin Ran left, Song Mai and Chu Xing also left the company together.
She remained silent the whole way until she handed the helmet to the man, then casually put the other helmet on her own head.
Chu Xing suddenly said:
"I didn't..."
He only said half a sentence before pausing, unsure how to describe the rest.
“I know, I saw it.”
Finally, she added, "Actually, you don't need to explain."
Anyway, we're in a contractual relationship, so I won't interfere in his private affairs.
She casually tossed the canvas bag she was carrying into the bicycle basket and prepared to ride off.
The man suddenly grabbed her wrist, his voice low and deep:
"I'm sorry about last night."
Song Mai turned to look at him, her eyes filled with a hint of confusion.
I shouldn't have said that to you.
This was the first time he had apologized to someone so solemnly, and Chu Xing looked somewhat awkward.
Song Mai paused for a few seconds, then smiled nonchalantly:
"I thought it was something serious and didn't take it to heart. I know you're under a lot of pressure looking for a job. Get in the car."
She patted the back seat of the electric scooter, where a pink cushion sat on the worn-out seat.
Chu Xing pursed his lips and sat down, bending his long legs.
The overburdened electric vehicle creaked and groaned, moving at a snail's pace.
Every time Chu Xing went over a speed bump, he worried that his old car might fall apart.
It seems he needs to find a legitimate way to change her living conditions as soon as possible.
"By the way, how did you end up at my company?"
"Today ended early."
He was having dinner with a client nearby when he suddenly remembered that she was about to get off work, and he came over as if possessed.
As the sun set, the shadows of the man and woman were cast on the ground, and they chatted idly.
Surprisingly, a harmonious atmosphere was created.
