Even though New Year's Day has passed, Chen Cixiu and Jiang Yu's engagement is still a very festive occasion in their respective social media circles.
Because it's pleasing, most of the responses are congratulatory.
Chen Cixiu's best friends from high school had been clamoring to come, but because their schedules didn't match up—Chen Cixiu's engagement was on December 31st, not January 1st—they were unable to attend.
Taking leave is certainly possible.
But Chen Cixiu thought it was unnecessary, just like his close friends from high school, whom he hadn't seen since their last high school reunion dinner.
Guan Yue went to another city, supposedly to participate in some program. It is said that the program is located in the city where Shen Yue works, and Jiang Yuan has been transferred to another city.
There was no chance of them coming over.
However, they also said in the group that they would definitely come back when he holds his wedding, no matter how busy they are.
These are my best friends from high school.
No matter how long it's been since we last contacted each other, as long as someone speaks in the group chat, it will definitely bring everyone out.
Because they live in completely different parts of the country, they don't even have time to eat a meal.
If we want to have a gathering, we can only wait until the Chinese New Year.
Jiang Yu's social circle was even more lively. Although she didn't socialize much during her school years, the friends she made were all very good friends, not to mention those big bosses.
Her WeChat Moments is filled with all sorts of people, and when she posted the news of her engagement, she received a barrage of congratulations.
She could only temporarily disable her WeChat account.
Not to mention how popular Jiang Yu was during her university years.
Although Jiang Yu didn't have their WeChat, many people present, including Tan Jing, had theirs, and word spread quickly.
The news that the most beautiful college girl in Jiangbei University's history was engaged immediately spread throughout the alumni group.
It's worth mentioning that Jiang Yu's wedding announcement on WeChat Moments wasn't publicized by many people, so only her close friends knew about it, and no one spread the word.
After all, it's just a marriage certificate; there's no need to make a big fuss about it.
This is different; it's an engagement. As Jiang Yu's best friend who was really looking forward to seeing her get engaged and married, and considering that it was a rushed but very thoughtful Chinese-style engagement, even though it incorporated some Western engagement elements, it was still worth posting on my WeChat Moments.
Alumni discovered that she was engaged to a junior, who was also very handsome and the school's heartthrob.
Now everyone feels better.
Otherwise, if the Jiang Group's heiress, the founder of Anyuan Financial, and one of the top ten influential figures at Jiangbei University, married someone who isn't particularly good-looking but is just rich, then everyone would feel a bit uneasy.
Now that's good, they're all talented young men and beautiful women from Jiangbei University, and they look like a perfect match, so everyone feels more at ease.
When Chen Cixiu and Jiang Yu got up, their WeChat messages kept coming in.
Chen Cixiu was a little better, not that exaggerated, but Jiang Yu's was really exaggerated. Of course, the ones who came to congratulate the most were the CEOs.
I took Jiang Yu to the company.
"Honey, I'm leaving now."
Jiang Yu waved his hand.
Chen Cixiu watched her leave before driving towards his company.
As soon as I arrived at the company, applause and fireworks suddenly erupted.
"Mr. Chen, congratulations on your engagement!"
Everyone happily offered their congratulations.
Chen Cixiu's face was full of smiles as he thanked him repeatedly.
This idea was obviously discussed with him behind his back; otherwise, they wouldn't have given him such a shock as soon as he entered the company.
"Thank you, thank you."
Chen Cixiu had prepared red envelopes long ago. Of course, the amount in these red envelopes was not very large. Chen Cixiu prepared one hundred yuan in each envelope, which already broke the rules of the entire province.
"Thank you, Mr. Chen. When is your wedding? We'd like to attend."
"Yes, Mr. Chen, we want to go to the wedding too."
Upon hearing this, Chen Cixiu smiled and said, "This engagement was already a bit rushed, so the wedding needs to be prepared properly. It will take about two months. Don't worry, I will arrange everything for you then."
"Yay, long live President Chen!"
The atmosphere in the whole company is excellent.
After everyone happily offered their congratulations, they went to work.
After returning to work following the New Year's Day holiday, the atmosphere at Haochi Media didn't have the usual dullness that comes with suddenly returning to work after a holiday.
On the contrary, everyone was in particularly good spirits.
This was also what Chen Cixiu was most happy to see.
Knock knock knock!
A knock sounded on the door, and Chen Cixiu responded.
"Here, take this."
Cheng Yusheng came over carrying a bunch of things.
"What's this?"
Chen Cixiu asked.
"After all your business partners found out you were engaged, they stopped bothering you and gave me their things, asking me to hand them over to you when you went to work," Cheng Yusheng said quietly.
Chen Cixiu was a little surprised, as those business partners rarely sought out Cheng Yusheng.
Speaking of this, Cheng Yusheng was a little speechless. He said, "Didn't you notice that neither Lao Li nor Tian Xin came today?"
That's true, I didn't see either of them when I came to the company today.
He thought they were at the company.
"Old Li caught a cold after being exposed to the wind the day before yesterday. Tian Xin is taking care of him at home. Yesterday, his fever reached 40 degrees Celsius."
Cheng Yusheng sighed.
Chen Cixiu was terrified, worried that the child might get burned.
They're already very good at their professional knowledge, but their everyday knowledge is always a bit lacking. We can't let this fever burn away their professional knowledge.
This is a treasure of the company.
It's okay if the daily reactions are a little off.
Perhaps this reaction can be amplified in other areas.
"Are you alright now?" Chen Cixiu quickly asked.
"It's alright now. Tian Xin said her fever has subsided. She had an IV drip yesterday and is much better today."
Cheng Yusheng opened the door and said before leaving, "Also, see if you can finish this today and then hand it over to them."
"Okay, I got it. Go ahead and get busy."
Chen Cixiu opened the document and began the most important task of the day.
Bang!
In the Shanshui Villa District, inside a detached villa on the far left, the sound of glass bottles clattering against tiles caused a woman to furrow her brows.
The woman took a broom and a trash can and went over to sweep up the glass bottles.
When Xu Shaoan saw the woman approaching, he picked up the red wine and drank it all in one gulp.
"Is this interesting? You weren't happy with this blind date to begin with, so why did you even come?"
After finishing his red wine, Xu Shaoan asked casually.
The woman swept the floor clean, then took out a tissue to wipe her hands, as if there was something dirty on the broom.
She walked over and sat down opposite Xu Shaoan, took out a book and ignored him, just sitting there reading.
Just as Xu Shaoan was about to speak, the woman didn't even raise her eyes and said indifferently, "Don't bring your angry face to my face."
