Chapter 393 The master told my fortune and said it's not advisable to drink coffee.
Shen Buyu studied at the Translation Department for seven days, which involved listening to the radio for seven days.
Zhang Luo was doing very well under Fang Qi's guidance, and he could talk to almost everyone in the office except for Jiang Li.
She was extremely satisfied with this.
“Learning all that is useless. You can listen to the radio anywhere. The point of coming to work is to learn how to deal with people. Look at you, nobody in the office pays any attention to you.” Zhang Luo showed off her nails. “Do you think my manicure looks good? Fang Qi recommended this shop to me, but it’s a bit expensive.”
Shen Buyu ate with his head down, his mind filled with what he had heard on the radio that morning.
Given the current international situation, gold and military stocks are expected to continue rising; perhaps it's time for her to sell off her previous holdings.
That way, she can invest in Qin Nianke without needing anyone else's money.
"Oh, two kids are eating. What a coincidence!" Fang Qi's sudden appearance interrupted their conversation.
"Sister Fang Qi, you're back. Please have a seat." Zhang Luo familiarly pulled Fang Qi along.
Shen Buyu looked up, smiled, and nodded, but then noticed Fang Qi's arm dodge, avoiding Zhang Luo's touch.
Did she see wrong? Aren't the two of them the best?
Zhang Luo was oblivious and was still happily talking to Fang Qi.
Shen Buyu didn't take it seriously, guessing that she was just overthinking it.
"Chen Buyu, is that enough for you? Are you embarrassed to use Jiang Li's card? Use mine, I earn more than enough to help you out." Fang Qi said enthusiastically.
“See? See?” Zhang Luo boasted. “Our Fang Qi is the most generous, much better than your Jiang Li.”
"No need, I've had enough." Shen Buyu's voice was indifferent, neither saying more nor engaging in further conversation.
"Young girls just want to maintain their figure," Fang Qi chuckled, covering her mouth, but her eyes darted to the small flower bracelet on Shen Buyu's wrist.
The three of them awkwardly talked about their own things, and no one could connect with the others.
As Fang Qi got up to go back to her office, she suddenly took Shen Buyu's arm, her fingers brushing against her bracelet before she stared intently at her necklace.
"Wow, your necklace is so pretty, just like my friend's. But I remember yours isn't green?" Fang Qi finally couldn't help but ask.
“She has several,” Zhang Luo, who had been ignored for a while, finally found a place to interject. “Buyu really likes these little things.”
"It's just a small trinket. I'll head back now. You guys chat." She hadn't finished organizing her notes yet.
Back at her seat, Jiang Li handed her a document. "Try translating this. Make it professional, not colloquial."
"Oh, okay."
Shen Buyu took the document, glanced at it, and found it wasn't too difficult, but some words needed to be carefully considered.
Jiang Li has already vacated a third of her desk for Shen Buyu.
She was diligently doing her work, holding a discarded notebook from the company warehouse.
"Sister Jiang Li, how can you let a child do such chores?" Fang Qi brought over two cups of coffee and placed one next to Shen Buyu. "Little student, you've worked hard. Let me treat you to a coffee."
Something unusual must be a lie.
Shen Buyu smiled politely, "Thank you, but I can't drink coffee in the afternoon, or I won't be able to sleep tonight, so I won't bother."
"Look at me, I'm used to it. We beasts of burden have to work overtime at night, and we can't get through it without a drink. So let's skip it and I'll treat you to milk tea tomorrow." Fang Qi wasn't upset at all by being snubbed; instead, she spoke up for her.
"You don't have any work to do? Have you finished the tasks the director assigned you? This is working time, this is an office, not a place for you to socialize." Jiang Li coldly dismissed him.
A hint of disdain flashed across Fang Qi's face, but she still smiled and said, "Sister Jiang Li, are you angry that I didn't bring you coffee? Don't be so petty. After all, she's still a student. It's nothing for me, as her senior, to treat her to a drink. Don't be so fussy."
Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for everyone in the office to hear.
Shen Buyu admired her somewhat.
Although this kind of person is annoying, she will definitely not have a bad life.
Because she's shameless, and she uses subtle words to shift the blame onto others.
People like that are not easy to deal with.
“I’m not as bored as you,” Jiang Li said calmly, unaffected. “All I know is that your summary report is due before the director leaves work.”
Fang Qi then left.
Chen Buyu continued with his own business.
"Why don't you drink her coffee?" Jiang Li asked from the side after Shen Buyu finished translating.
She clearly drank coffee yesterday afternoon, but today she's found an excuse.
“Oh,” Shen Buyu smiled, “When I went out today, a fortune teller told me that it was not a good time to drink coffee. I was afraid that if I had just said that, she would think I was superstitious.”
A hint of a smile flickered in Jiang Li's eyes.
It's quite interesting to talk nonsense in such a serious manner.
After get off work in the afternoon, Shen Buyu ran into Fang Qi again.
It seemed like she was deliberately loitering in the parking lot waiting for someone.
"Oh, Buyu, is this your car? It's so beautiful," Fang Qi said with a smile as she came over. "I twisted my ankle today. Could you take pity on me and take me to the subway station up ahead?"
After saying that, without waiting for Shen Buyu to refuse, he opened the passenger door and got in.
Shen Buyu was completely dumbfounded.
She went around to the front of the car to check again. She hadn't driven the wrong car today; it was still her little Jetta.
pretty?
It's barely clean at best.
Shen Buyu got into the car, "Um..."
"I know you're so beautiful and kind-hearted, you definitely wouldn't refuse your colleague. It's just around the corner, let's go." Fang Qi said to herself, fastening her seatbelt.
She also touched the seat.
It feels like genuine leather.
She had only ever heard the roar of a car starting up in sports cars.
It seems Zhang Luo was right.
This is a wealthy young lady who came to experience life.
"Your driving skills are really good. I'm not good at it, so I've never dared to drive on the road by myself." Fang Qi joked again, "Actually, all the leaders in our unit should learn from you how to modify cars."
Shen Buyu was taken aback. "What?"
Fang Qi continued, "Look, a car with a body worth tens of thousands of yuan and features worth millions. You won't get reported, and you still get to enjoy it."
Shen Buyu's mind instantly cleared.
She said that the voice sounded off, which meant that she never paid attention to the car and was easily fooled by someone.
Shen Buyu remained silent. Fang Qi gave an awkward laugh. "I was just talking nonsense. And don't worry, I'm very tight-lipped. I definitely won't tell anyone."
"Is this the right entrance?" Shen Buyu pulled over and turned on his hazard lights. "We can't park here for too long."
"Ah, yes, I've arrived. I'll be going now. I'll treat you to milk tea tomorrow." Fang Qi got out of the car and waved.
The Jetta sped away, and Fang Qi's smile widened.
It's far more meaningful to curry favor with her than to win over Zhang Luo, who knows nothing.
