Mingdai became depressed after Fang Li's words.
He Yaonian's status and position certainly make him a better woman.
Love can really make people feel inferior.
Even when Mo Tingchuan was on the verge of bankruptcy, she still felt unworthy of him, let alone He Yaonian, who now wields immense power.
Fang Li knew that Ming Dai had taken her words to heart when she saw that Ming Dai was silent.
"Let's go, I'll take you back."
She gently patted Mingdai's shoulder, "Don't be discouraged. Even if you can't be with my brother Yao Nian, I will introduce you to other men."
Mingdai was in a bad mood.
"No need, you go back first. I'll leave with Lin Yang later."
Having achieved her goal, Fang Li did not linger any longer.
"Alright then, I'll be going now."
Lin Yang came to find Ming Dai not long after, and the two left together.
We passed by an afternoon tea restaurant.
Lin Yang asked Ming Dai, "Would you like to come in for a cup of tea?"
Mingdai was in low spirits, but Lin Yang didn't notice.
She smiled and shook her head, "No need, I have to go back to the company."
She spent more than two hours at the amusement park in the afternoon, and had other social engagements in the evening, so she had to go back to the company to prepare documents.
"Okay, then let's make an appointment again sometime."
Lin Yang dropped Ming Dai off at the company before leaving.
While Mingdai was upstairs preparing materials, she received a call from He Yaonian.
"Went out to play?"
Mingdai knew that He Yaonian had seen her post on WeChat Moments.
"Um."
With whom?
Mingdai felt inexplicably irritable.
"Nobody was there, I went alone."
Why didn't you tell me?
He Yao smiled and said, "We can go together."
"Next time."
Mingdai replied dismissively, "Let's go together next time."
"OK."
As He Yaonian spoke, he asked again, "What are your plans after get off work?"
"I have a business dinner tonight."
Mingdai said, "I have a dinner appointment."
He Yaonian: "Um, what time will it end?"
Mingdai looked up and gazed out the window.
The sun was blazing, and the heat was scorching.
"I don't know yet, we'll see when the time comes."
"Don't drink alcohol."
He Yaonian instructed, "You're still taking medicine these past two days, so try not to drink alcohol."
Mingdai said heavily, "I understand."
After making the call, she sat at her workstation in a daze for a while, and then left with the assistant manager and the documents when it was time to leave work.
There's no business dinner without drinking.
Previously, it was Mingdai's father who handled things, but from now on, it will be Mingdai's turn to take over.
No matter how skilled Mingdai was at socializing, things couldn't be accomplished without drinking.
The assistant has already begun to introduce Ming Dai's true identity, letting the business partners know that she will be the future boss of the Ming family business.
Mingdai will have to get through this sooner or later.
The assistant tried his best to drink on Mingdai's behalf, but Mingdai still drank quite a lot.
It was already past nine o'clock when the social engagements were over.
Mingdai felt dizzy.
Seeing her like this, the assistant asked, "Does she need to go to the hospital?"
Mingdai sat in the back of the car, closing her eyes to rest.
She gently rubbed her temples a few times.
Is today an important day for you and your girlfriend?
The assistant general had a wry smile on his slightly tired face.
"Um."
Mingdai opened her eyes.
"Have the driver take me home, you can take a taxi home."
The assistant frowned.
"No, you've had too much to drink. I need to get you home safely."
Mingdai knew that if the assistant didn't go back soon, his girlfriend would really get angry.
She didn't know about this at first. When the social event was almost over, she heard the assistant making a phone call while she was in the restroom. Her girlfriend was complaining non-stop.
Just then, Mingdai's phone rang.
He picked it up and saw it was He Yaonian's phone number.
She thought about it for a moment and then accepted.
"Is it over yet?"
Mingdai hummed in agreement. "It's over."
Where?
"Getting ready to go back."
"Have you been drinking?"
Mingdai: "...just a little bit."
He Yaonian asked, "Who gave you this?"
Mingdai glanced at the restless assistant in the passenger seat.
She asked He Yaonian, "Are you done with your work?"
He Yaonian understood.
"I'll come pick you up."
Mingdai bit her lip. "Thank you."
Mingdai asked her assistant to drop her off at the entrance of a coffee shop.
The assistant was unwilling.
"If you keep dawdling, your girlfriend will run away."
The assistant hesitated.
"You're so busy all the time, do you think it's easy for you to find a girlfriend who can understand you? Your girlfriend is very tolerant, she's a good girl, don't let her down."
Mingdai got out of the car forcefully.
She went into the coffee shop and found a seat.
The assistant also asked her for a glass of water.
"Then I'll be going now."
The assistant looked at Mingdai and asked, "Are you sure someone's coming to pick you up?"
"Don't worry, I'll message you when I get on the bus. Let's go."
After dismissing the assistant, Mingdai silently waited for He Yaonian, clutching her upset stomach.
Unbeknownst to him, he had fallen into a deep sleep.
She only snapped awake when she felt herself being lifted up.
When she saw that the person holding her was He Yaonian.
"Third Uncle."
Mingdai's mouth was a little dry and her throat was uncomfortable.
I also felt guilty.
"I really only drank a tiny bit."
He Yaonian didn't say anything, and carefully carried her into the car.
There was also a driver in the car.
The two separated after getting into the car.
Mingdai settled herself down and silently observed He Yaonian.
He Yaonian gave her a cold glance.
Mingdai gave a fawning smile, looking pitiful.
"...Third Uncle".
He Yaonian glared at her.
