"Qingqing! This year our village will be the lantern-lighting village! Will you come back to visit?"
After the New Year, Chen Man, who happened to learn that Shen Qingqing was still at home, excitedly ran to find Shen Qingqing to play and told her about the great festivities in their village this year.
Chen Man was admitted to Guangcheng's 985 Normal University. After graduation, she followed her mother to teach at the school.
She teaches a minor subject, not a graduating class, and isn't a homeroom teacher. Although her salary isn't high, only 3,500 yuan a month after deductions, she spends that 3,500 yuan on herself. Since she lives and eats at home, there are no extra large expenses, and she lives a very comfortable life.
So even though she has been working for two years, Chen Man still retains a vibrant and lively aura.
There's absolutely no class atmosphere to it.
Unlike Shen Qingqing, who shuttled back and forth between the studio and Tu Chuan, looking like a zombie that had been drained of its life force, seemingly alive but with its soul seemingly sucked away by something.
However, U-Trail is about to change its name from "U-Trail Education Studio" to "U-Trail Education Company".
After so many years of development, Utour has long since grown beyond what can be measured by the size of a small studio.
Shen Qingqing had been preparing materials to submit the application since the expansion of the training base began. She submitted it just before the end of the year and was now waiting for the review to be completed before the official name change would take effect.
As for the new contracts with various seals, they have already been prepared.
Shen Qingqing lay on the sofa and murmured, "Is it the eighth day of the fourth lunar month this year?"
Chen Man scooped up a spoonful of ice cream: "Yes, yes! The stage was set up a long time ago this year, and I heard they even invited the Chaozhou Opera Troupe to perform Chaozhou opera!"
"And it seems that an overseas Chinese also paid a high price to arrange a fireworks show!"
Shen Qingqing huddled up against Chen Man's lap, resting her head on it, and opened her mouth: "Ah—"
Chen Man had just scooped up a spoonful to put in her mouth when she saw a dark hole appear on her thigh. "Tsk, I told you to open a box yourself if you want to eat it!"
But despite saying that, she still obediently fed Shen Qingqing the spoonful in her hand.
While frantically stirring the scoop of ice cream in her mouth like she was stir-frying vegetables, Shen Qingqing replied, "I've ruined my stomach, you know that."
"But if I have time this year, I'll come back, and you can drive to the airport to pick me up."
Chen Man was initially happy when she heard the first part of the sentence, but when she heard the second part, which said she should drive to pick her up, her face fell again.
"You know I can't learn it! The written and computer-based tests are okay, but I fail the practical driving test every time. If my dad hadn't been watching me, you would have had to come back to sweep my grave!"
Shen Qingqing swallowed the ice cream in her mouth and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"You still have the nerve to laugh? Why don't you learn it yourself?" Chen Man retorted, unconvinced.
"I get carsick!" Shen Qingqing said confidently. "Besides, I have a driver!"
Chen Man: "..."
"I'm going to fight you, you rich guy, to the death!!!"
Chen Man put down the ice cream that was still a third of the way down and was about to tickle Shen Qingqing.
Shen Qingqing cried out in surprise and started arguing with her.
Li Xunli was sunbathing on the balcony when she heard the noise inside. She hurriedly came in and saw that the two working adults were still playing around. She smiled helplessly, shook her head, and let them continue sunbathing.
After her annual leave ended, Shen Qingqing flew directly back to the capital.
She said she would go back soon after separating from Wu Fangyi, but because of Li Xunli's matter, she stayed in Chaocheng for a year before returning.
The moment Shen Qingqing bought the ticket, she sent the flight information to Wu Fangyi, telling her that she was going back.
When Wu Fangyi received the message, she asked if anyone was available to pick her up, and offered to come and get her.
Shen Qingqing said no, she had to go to work, and so did Wu Fangyi. How could anyone ask for leave so soon after starting work?
He said he called Zheng Dongqi to answer.
After replying with an "OK" emoji, Wu Fangyi went off to do her work.
The entire renovation of the base was completed before the Lunar New Year. Zheng Dongqi stayed until the very last step was finished, and then ran around from top to bottom, inside and out, recording more than thirty short videos for Shen Qingqing so that she could see the base was completed as soon as possible.
As soon as Shen Qingqing got off the plane, she didn't even send her luggage back to her apartment. Instead, she had Zheng Dongqi take her directly to the base.
"Dongqi, are you getting married this National Day?" Shen Qingqing asked as she flipped through her notes in the car, suddenly finding a record about Zheng Dongqi at the very bottom.
Zheng Dongqi glanced at Shen Qingqing in the rearview mirror in surprise. "Yeah, how did the young boss know?"
Zheng Dongqi remembered that he hadn't told Shen Qingqing about this. He was even thinking of saving up his annual leave this year and using it all at once.
"I overheard it when I passed by your office once," Shen Qingqing said with a smile.
She didn't take over Xunqing and Jincheng, so she wasn't too sure about the company atmosphere. However, Youqiantu and Tuchuan were companies she had personally trained, so the work atmosphere was very relaxed, and it was fine to chat while working during work hours.
The only requirement is to get the work done properly, and you can choose a work style that is comfortable for you.
"Have you thought about the house yet?" Shen Qingqing asked again.
Zheng Dongqi paused for a moment, then chuckled awkwardly, "No, my girlfriend also wants to buy a house in the capital, but our combined salaries are still a bit short."
"Then would you like to be the company's assistant?" Shen Qingqing casually dropped a bombshell.
Zheng Dongqi is currently only the administrative assistant, meaning he is only responsible for the administrative department. But if he were the company's general assistant, it would be equivalent to being directly promoted to Shen Qingqing's side.
