Lin Miaomiao, pouting, rested her chin on her hand, her gaze fixed on the computer screen, and sighed to herself, "If only paper figures could move..."
But that would also give me a dilemma. I'd have to consider whether to marry Lelouch or Takumi Usui. Ah, I'm so hesitant.
"You think it is something else, but you dare to think it."
Chen Mo, who was sitting to the side playing on his phone, couldn't help but chuckle. What was the difference between this behavior and that idiotic couple who fantasized about winning three million in the lottery and then started fighting over how to spend the money?
We're going to celebrate Liang Zhirou's birthday tonight, so she's here today to have some fun and experience what it's like to be the boss's... little sister.
Lin Miaomiao rubbed her neck with her palm, signaling to Chen Mo that he was doomed if he didn't shut up.
Chen Mo wasn't intimidated at all and stuck his tongue out at her.
Lin Miaomiao, who was domineering in the company, met her match. Both of them were extremely socially awkward and neither could do anything to the other. She returned an international friendly gesture and turned her head to continue watching Liang Zhirou draw.
Then her pupils suddenly contracted, and her jaw almost dropped to the ground.
Because Liang Zhirou was drawing on the graphics tablet with a carbon pen, while muttering to herself that the tablet seemed to be broken.
"Zhirou...you're using this to draw?" She pointed at the carbon pen in the other person's hand, her brows furrowed.
"I brought the wrong one." Liang Zhirou pursed her lips. "That explains why there was no reaction..."
Lin Miaomiao held her forehead and took a deep breath, "Zhirou, what kind of bewitching potion did Chen Lu give you?!"
This person is clearly corrupted, isn't he!
To put it bluntly, this has become Chen Lu's shape! Isn't this just an idiot who can't live without Chen Lu?
Lin Miaomiao continued to demonstrate her professional skills as a seasoned veteran who had read countless books.
"No..." Liang Zhirou said stubbornly, rummaging through her bag but still couldn't find the paintbrush.
I really took the wrong one when I arrived.
"Is Chen Lu not coming back today?" Lin Miaomiao couldn't help but ask in a low voice, as she really didn't know how things were going with Chen Lu.
He said that if all goes well, a decision can be made tomorrow.
Liang Zhirou put the ballpoint pen back in her bag and subconsciously changed her way of expressing herself.
Just as Lin Miaomiao was about to say a few words of comfort, she heard Chen Mo's carefree voice again.
"Brother Leyun, have you finished running the map for me? I don't have time to do daily quests because I'm in class every day, so I'll leave it to you from now on!"
"good."
"Sister Xiaojie, I want to drink fruit tea."
"You want to peel grapes by hand, right? I'll go buy some for you..."
With Chen Lu gone, Chen Mo has already become the emperor of the company.
Lin Miaomiao couldn't stand it any longer and shouted, "Xiao Mo, you'd better watch out, your brother will beat you to death when he gets back. Xiao Jie, get me a drink too, love you!"
Chen Mo didn't take it seriously, "My sister-in-law will protect me."
Moreover, she was appointed as an imperial envoy by Chen Lu under pressure from Wang Xiaoxia, with no budget limit and only one task—to make her sister-in-law happy.
After she finished speaking, seeing Liang Zhirou's absent-minded look, she sighed silently. This task was definitely unfinishable; she could only try to have some fun before her older brother dealt with her.
I really want to recite a line: "What is love in this world?"
Liang Zhirou found that she couldn't continue drawing, so she had to pick up her book again.
Her gaze wasn't on the book, but rather on the buildings outside the window.
Even a small bird flying by could attract her attention, but she simply couldn't concentrate on reading a single book.
She thought she could adapt, after all, she was so used to this kind of loneliness that she couldn't get used to it anymore.
But every day Chen Lu was away felt like an eternity to her.
The chat history between the two ended with Chen Lu's message that he was going to attend a meeting. She didn't send any more messages, worried that she would bother Chen Lu.
Even if no red dot pops up in WeChat, she will still tap on it from time to time to take a look, and then exit.
This process is repeated.
......
As evening fell and dusk settled, the skyscrapers throughout Hangzhou lit up with their dazzling lights.
Three girls in long skirts walked together on a street near the university town, attracting countless stares. Onlookers couldn't help but marvel at the high quality of this year's university students.
However, standing next to the girl in the middle, the two pretty and cheerful girls could only play supporting roles.
Unfortunately, the prettiest girl didn't seem very interested. As the saying goes, "A beauty's smile is priceless," and such a pretty girl must look even more beautiful when she smiles.
"Zhirou, you're not allowed to say anything like 'How about we skip it?' or 'How about we come to my house for your birthday?' This is the first time I've celebrated your birthday since we met." Lin Miaomiao lifted the cake in her hand and gave her a special instruction.
She was wearing sandals today, and they made a clattering sound as she walked down the street.
Seeing that her hesitation had been seen through, Liang Zhirou was too embarrassed to say anything and could only softly say "Oh".
She felt she shouldn't be sad, after all, this was the first time someone her own age had celebrated her birthday with her. Chen Lu's happy birthday message was sent promptly at midnight, things that would make her happy for a long time.
But she still felt empty inside, as if a piece of her heart had been ripped out.
Lin Miaomiao linked arms with Liang Zhirou and looked up at Chen Mo, "What would you like to eat, Xiao Mo?"
Aren't you going to ask my sister-in-law?
"Does your sister-in-law look like someone who can make decisions?" Lin Miaomiao couldn't help but smile wryly.
