Sleeping in the same room with this silly guy requires further consideration.
In the afternoon, he had someone repair the air conditioner that he had deliberately damaged, and decided to honestly think of another solution.
The next day.
Since she had no classes in the afternoon, Lin Miaomiao came to the company after lunch, put her mug containing drinks and snacks on her desk, and then slowly sat down.
Yeah, even slacking off needs a sense of ritual. I'll find another opportunity to catch up on this week's anime later.
Feeling great.
She had just sat down when the noise from the side drew her attention.
This company is amazing.
Here you can see bosses who consistently lead the way in being late or leaving early every day.
You can also see the proprietress offering to pour you water.
Having been fed dog food by the boss and his wife for so long, they've developed some resistance to it now.
But today they witnessed something even more outrageous—
The company's second-in-command is arguing with his girlfriend.
That means Jiang Chao and Liu Yan.
Although Jiang Chao never had a fixed position and was moved around wherever he was needed, no one disagreed that he had the second most influence in the company.
"Do you believe me now? I already told you I was busy."
"You've been so busy all summer that you haven't had a chance to come see me, and you're so busy that you can't even find time for Qixi Festival?"
"They're all working overtime on Qixi Festival. Go ask them. Chen Lu too. If you don't believe me, I'll call him right now."
“You two don’t need to conspire together. I asked him on Qixi Festival (Chinese Valentine’s Day), and he was taking his girlfriend to the aquarium.”
Liu Yan emphasized the last few words, "You won't stay with me, fine, but now you're going to lie to me, huh? Do you think I'm that stupid?"
"Tell me, how many times have you two teamed up to cheat me?"
Lin Miaomiao stared blankly, mouth agape. "Am I allowed to eat this melon? Will I get expelled?"
She picked up her paintbrush, lowered her head, and obediently pretended to paint.
Then she remembered that she was the boss's best friend, so she simply looked up and continued to watch the drama unfold.
It's really hard to persuade her. As the saying goes, even an upright official can't settle family disputes. Not to mention, she's not as familiar with Jiang Chao as she is with Chen Lu, and she's barely spoken two words to Liu Yan.
It's best to observe first.
Jiang Chao and Liu Yan were both angry, and neither of them thought to close the office door.
"This game is all the rage right now, so of course I'm busy. The busier I am, the more money I make. Otherwise, where would I get the money to buy you that necklace worth over 20,000?! I didn't sleep all night trying to snag it for you!"
"I told you right then and there that I didn't want that thing!" Liu Yan became increasingly angry as she spoke. "Jiang Chao, was I only with you for your money?!"
"Whether you're after money or not, I still have to earn it, right? Why don't you understand me at all?"
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Peng Leyun quietly approached, peeked out, and said, "Brother Chao, let's talk this out. As the saying goes..."
"Close the door!"
After being rebuffed, Peng Leyun wasn't annoyed. He obediently closed the door and shrugged dejectedly at the laughing crowd.
"Stop gossiping and finish what you're doing. Brother Chao is in a bad mood right now, or you'll end up getting yelled at like I did."
The effect of personally stepping on the landmine was immediate. Jiang Chao's shout at him was like a shout at everyone. Everyone who was just watching the drama started to lower their heads and deal with their own tasks.
......
After a while, the outermost glass door of the company was slowly pushed open again.
"From now on, please cook less lunch. You always make such a lavish meal. People who don't know better might think I'm malnourished."
"But you are indeed thin..."
“I’m suing you for defamation, Liang Zhirou. This is called being slim.”
Chen Lugang walked in and was taken aback by the quiet scene.
"Is our company going to go bankrupt?" he asked Lin Miaomiao.
Lin Miaomiao found it strange, "No, why are you suddenly saying that?"
"I'm not used to you all being so honest."
Just as Lin Miaomiao was about to say something more, the door to Jiang Chao's office was suddenly pushed open forcefully, and Liu Yan stormed out.
Jiang Chao showed no intention of chasing after him.
Chen Lu was stunned for two seconds. After he realized what was happening, he winked at Lin Miaomiao, who nodded and ran over with a smile to pull Liu Yan away.
He sighed softly, squeezed Liang Zhirou's hand, and said softly, "Let's go and resolve my son's relationship issues."
Liang Zhirou tilted her head as she listened.
Your son?
Lin Miaomiao and Liu Yan are not familiar with each other, and no matter how much they try to build relationships, they are not in the same circle. Only Liang Zhirou can hold her back.
Liang Zhirou was, after all, his girlfriend, so Liu Yan had to give her some face.
Chen Lu whispered in Liang Zhirou's ear, "Go and stay here with Lin Miaomiao."
Liang Zhirou blinked, looking somewhat embarrassed. "I don't know how to comfort people..."
"It's okay, you don't need to coax her. As long as she stays, that's a success. If she's willing to get to know you both, then chat with her; if not, then forget it."
Chen Lu always felt that Liu Yan might not be willing to get too close to Liang Zhirou, but she would definitely give this simpleton face on the surface.
That's the benefit of dealing with rational people.
After giving his instructions, Chen Lu walked expressionlessly into Jiang Chao's office.
"Did you have a fight?" Chen Lu asked with a smile, already having a vague idea of why the other person had argued.
Your dad tried to persuade you to go out and have fun on Qixi Festival, but you didn't listen. Now you're in big trouble!
Jiang Chao angrily threw the half-smoked cigarette into the ashtray and said, "Girls are so unreasonable. If you try to reason with them, they say you have a bad attitude. If you change your attitude, they come back to talk about the problem you just mentioned."
