Lu Yingying is quite particular about her bed, so she had trouble sleeping on the first night after moving in.
However, the thought that Xu Feng was sleeping next to her made Lu Yingying feel a sense of unreality. Although she couldn't sleep, she didn't think about disturbing him.
Instead, he forced himself to close his eyes and count sheep. After an unknown amount of time, he finally fell into a deep sleep because he was too tired to continue.
When Lu Yingying woke up the next day, she also had dark circles under her eyes.
And I got up a little late, but fortunately the company isn't far from here. Xu Feng's advice was absolutely right.
When Lu Yingying came out, she saw Xu Feng sitting at the dining table working on his laptop.
The morning sunlight streamed in from the balcony, illuminating the dining table and half of Xu Feng's profile.
Beside him were two sets of bowls and chopsticks and an open casserole.
Inside was a meat porridge that was still slowly steaming.
Seeing this scene warmed her heart.
This kind of life is just too blissful.
Lu Yingying thought to herself.
Xu Feng had already noticed that the person in front of him seemed to have been standing still the whole time. He looked up at her, pointed to the porridge on the table, and said, "Go brush your teeth quickly."
Lu Yingying nodded and quickly brushed her teeth and washed her face. When she returned, Xu Feng had already put the computer aside and served her a bowl of porridge.
Perhaps because she got up too late, the porridge was already at a very mild temperature.
She took a bite and found it had no fishy taste at all; it was fresh, sweet, and delicious.
When asked how he made it, Xu Feng's answer was still the recipe.
Lu Yingying was truly impressed.
"Remember to eat lunch on time and avoid unhealthy takeout. You can find a decent restaurant nearby and have them deliver your meals every day."
Xu Feng gave detailed instructions on everything, big or small.
Lu Yingying nodded repeatedly.
However, the two didn't talk much, mainly because Lu Yingying was about to be late.
She picked up the bowl and quickly drank the porridge. When she put the bowl down, there was still some rice paste on the corner of her mouth.
The man smiled, got up, and wiped it off with a tissue.
Compared to Xu Feng's composure, Lu Yingying glanced at the time and became as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
"I'm going to be late! I'm going to be late!"
As she spoke, she didn't even have time to put on makeup, changed her shoes, grabbed her bag, and rushed out the door.
Fortunately, Lu Yingying arrived at the company before being late and clocked in.
As she walked toward her workstation, many colleagues greeted her along the way.
Lu Yingying was well-liked wherever she went, and she responded to everyone.
When she sat down at her workstation, the female colleague in front of her looked at her face and asked with some concern.
"Yingying, did you not sleep well last night? You even have dark circles under your eyes."
"Oh, it's because of moving. It's more convenient to live near the company and go to work."
Lu Yingying said with a smile.
My colleague nodded in agreement, then started complaining about how painful it was to squeeze onto the bus during her commute that morning.
As a result, somehow, Lu Yingying's words reached the ears of a passing manager.
"Yingying is moving? How about moving to my place? I have a room that's empty, and I'm about to rent it out. You know how expensive rent is around here... Oh, but I don't want any money, you can stay there for free."
As the manager spoke, he stared intently at Lu Yingying, and anyone with eyes could tell from his expression that he was about to drool.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yingying and her female colleagues all lowered their heads immediately.
The manager in front of them wasn't from their department, but from the department next door. He looked young, but he was also fat and looked like a 200-pound fat man.
He is said to be the chairman's nephew.
He has little ability and just loiters around the company all day. His favorite thing to do is harass female colleagues or order people around to run errands. Most people are extremely dissatisfied with this, but they can only swallow their anger because he is a relative of the chairman.
Since Lu Yingying arrived, the other party has set their sights on her.
Lu Yingying had only been here for a few days and didn't realize it at first.
By the time she had sensed the other party's intentions, her onboarding procedures were complete, and she was ready to officially begin her internship.
This put Lu Yingying in a dilemma.
In response to the manager's words, Lu Yingying rolled her eyes inwardly, gave a forced smile, and replied in an extremely perfunctory manner.
"I've already found a place to stay, so you don't need to worry about it."
Seeing Lu Yingying's attitude, the manager became displeased.
He liked the way others were unhappy with him but could do nothing about it, but Lu Yingying was the first person to openly show her dislike for him like this.
The manager's face was visibly grim. He turned and left, his fat jiggling as he turned away.
After he left, the female colleague sitting behind her came up to him again.
"How dare you be so bold? Be careful he doesn't mess with you later."
"What am I afraid of?"
Lu Yingying didn't care at all.
Lu Yingying wasn't afraid of him at all. Even though this wasn't her hometown, the Lu family wasn't someone to be trifled with.
On several subsequent occasions, the manager would come over with a smile, trying to take advantage of her, but Lu Yingying would always rebuff him.
After repeatedly hitting a wall, the other party seemed to have actually become a bit more restrained.
That manager has rarely come here these past few days.
Not seeing him made everyone feel much better.
He couldn't help but look at Lu Yingying with new respect.
Surprisingly, Lu Yingying's tough approach actually worked.
However, Lu Yingying didn't think so.
A person like this, who is narcissistic and self-righteous, would never fail to try to get back at someone who has been humiliated.
Lu Yingying was therefore always on guard.
She didn't tell Xu Feng or her parents about these things. She felt that as long as she was careful, the other party shouldn't be able to do anything to her.
A few days later, their company announced that they would be organizing a team building activity.
Lu Yingying immediately became alert.
"Could it have been suggested by that guy surnamed Shi?"
The manager's surname was Shi, and his full name was Shi Tao. However, people privately liked to pronounce Shi as a different character.
"That's what my colleague replied."
"No, it was arranged by the HR department. They said it was to accommodate you university interns."
"Is it okay if I don't go?"
"Of course not, it was said to be done for you."
Lu Yingying pouted.
It would be difficult to refuse, and in doing so, one might offend more than just that guy surnamed Shi.
Lu Yingying doesn't want to change internship companies for the time being; she only plans to intern here for one summer.
After get off work, the group walked out of the company in a lively manner. When Lu Yingying got into the car, she asked the driver and learned that they were going to a nearby bar.
A team-building event at a bar... and it wasn't the whole company, only their department had interns.
Lu Yingying thought for a moment, took out her phone, and sent a message to Xu Feng to report the news.
