Zheng Xiuxiu really did act like a little leader, beckoning the three of them, "Come in, the ball will start soon. Tonight I'll let you see the gentleness of this iron lady, hahahaha."
Only Zheng Xiuxiu and Liu Youzhi were laughing.
Go into the furniture factory.
The entire furniture factory's showroom had been cleared out and decorated in a Hong Kong style. Liu Youzhi smiled and whispered in Sheng Yingying's ear, "Our boss went on a business trip to Hong Kong a while ago and fell in love with the local vibe. Now he speaks a few Cantonese phrases now and then. I've even learned a few, like 'eat,' do you know what it means?"
Sheng Yingying shook her head.
Liu Youzhi laughed so hard that he couldn't close his mouth. "Is that what we call eating here?"
Sheng Yingying couldn't help but keep her eyes on Chen Lie, but every time she could see Chen Lie and Zheng Xiuxiu talking intimately with their heads facing each other.
The little girl tasted jealousy for the first time.
The two little hands were clenched tightly together, as if they had drunk a glass of vinegar, with a sour taste in their noses and a churning in their abdomens. They felt light and airy, as if their internal organs were hollowed out, and their hearts were numb and weak.
Liu Youzhi eagerly served Sheng Yingying some fruit. "Have some apples, some oranges, or a banana? Comrade Sheng, you've helped me solve a big problem. I don't know how to thank you enough."
Sheng Yingying smiled politely at Liu Youzhi, "It's my duty. It was thanks to you yesterday. If it weren't for you, my whole cart of braised meat would have been ruined."
"Comrade Sheng, where are you from?"
"It's quite far, in a relatively remote mountain village."
"When did you come to seek refuge with your brother and sister-in-law?"
"I've been here for several months."
"What do you think of our town?"
“It’s much better than our village.”
Liu Youzhi's eyes sparkled. "Really? I've lived here since I was a child, and occasionally I want to see the scenery outside of town. Every place has its own merits. I hope that one day I can realize my wish."
Sheng Yingying encouraged him, "You can do it."
Chen Lie was holding a glass of wine in the corner. Zheng Xiuxiu frowned and said, "I'm talking to you, are you listening?"
Chen Lie hummed, picked up the wine glass and took a sip. He looked away from the two people who were chatting happily. His fingers involuntarily clenched the wine glass, and his knuckles turned faintly white. "I'm listening."
Zheng Xiuxiu leaned against the wall, her arms folded across her chest. "Oh, I shouldn't have listened to my dad and asked you to be my dance partner. You're such a blockhead. My dad was really trying to get you to pick one of the girls in our furniture factory and marry him off. But judging by your blockhead personality, I'm afraid no girl would like you."
Chen Lie took another sip of wine, the bitter taste of alcohol spreading in his mouth, "How do you know there isn't one?"
Zheng Xiuxiu snorted and said bluntly, "Either that girl is blind or that girl is ugly."
Zheng Xiuxiu followed Chen Lie's gaze and teased calmly, "Is it because you see young men and women in love that your old heart is starting to stir?"
Chen Lie frowned, "In love?"
Zheng Xiuxiu exclaimed naturally, "Yeah, they're clearly dating. From my perspective, Liu Youzhi is the one pursuing her the most closely. Look at him, sometimes serving her fruit, sometimes water, sometimes Coke, and he's as happy as a dog. It shows that he's in love the most."
display:"……"
He put down the wine glass in his hand, which scared Zheng Xiuxiu. "Why did you drop it so loudly?"
As the furniture factory owner finished his passionate speech, the lights in the entire exhibition hall were suddenly turned off. Sheng Yingying felt a little uncomfortable in the darkness.
The ball lights were supposed to be on, but after a long time, no lights came on, so I guess there was a malfunction.
At this moment, someone couldn't wait any longer and wanted to go find out what was going on. In the dark, it was inevitable that they would bump into people. Sheng Yingying was bumped into at this time.
Her whole body tilted in the opposite direction of the front and she screamed in fear, but before she landed on the ground, she was grabbed by a hand and pulled into a broad embrace.
"Thank...thank you."
“…”
moment.
Colorful blurred lights light up.
At the same moment, Sheng Yingying was pushed away. After she adjusted to the bright lights, she squinted her eyes and looked over. She saw that Chen Lie was still in the same place, as if she had not moved.
Liu Youzhi beside him looked anxious, "Comrade Sheng, are you okay?"
Sheng Yingying shook her head, "I'm fine."
The boss and his wife started ballroom dancing first, and other employees joined in. Those who knew how to dance and those who didn't, all participated enthusiastically.
"You stepped on my foot."
"I haven't even told you that you hit my nose, why are you yelling?"
"You stepped on my foot too!"
"Don't step on my foot..."
The entire dance party was filled with the sound of stomping feet, and Sheng Yingying couldn't help laughing.
This smile made Liu Youzhi beside him stunned, "Comrade Sheng, should we try it too?"
Sheng Yingying looked at those completely different dance moves, as if a group of people were dancing hundreds of different dances. "Actually, I don't really know how to do it either."
Liu Youzhi immediately raised his hands and embraced the air. "I'll probably watch it for a while. Just like this, one, two, cha-cha, one, two, cha-cha... try it?"
Sheng Yingying said yes with bright eyes.
The two of them joined in together.
Zheng Xiuxiu looked at Chen Lie earnestly, "Didn't we agree on this before we came? Aren't you making it difficult for me? I'm just a small leader after all. If you don't give me face like this, how will I be able to face my teammates in the future..."
"Walk."
"ah?"
When Zheng Xiuxiu was about to give up, Chen Lie grabbed her arm and asked her to dance.
Zheng Xiuxiu gnashed her teeth in anger, "Chen Lie, are you sick today?"
As they danced, they came to Sheng Yingying and Liu Youzhi.
Sheng Yingying, who couldn't dance to begin with, became even more nervous and stepped on Liu Youzhi's feet four times in a row.
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry..."
"I think I stepped on you again."
"Or I won't dance."
"oops……"
This time she was the one who was stepped on. It really hurt when she was stepped on. She felt like her toes were about to break.
It was Liu Youzhi's turn to apologize quickly.
Zheng Xiuxiu listened to their apologies back and forth and chuckled, "Could it be that neither of you can dance?"
Liu Youzhi blushed, "Yeah."
Zheng Xiuxiu tutted her words twice, "Then you two might trample each other into cripples tonight. How about we two teachers teach you a lesson?"
teach?
Sheng Yingying watched the two people dancing with ease out of the corner of her eye, and felt extremely jealous.
Does Team Leader Zheng want them to watch them dance in front of him?
Before Sheng Yingying could think more, Zheng Xiuxiu took her hand and they started spinning together. Zheng Xiuxiu threw Sheng Yingying to Chen Lie and stood in front of Liu Youzhi, "Team leader, let me teach you."
