Liu Er Bao could see the concern in both of their eyes and smiled helplessly, "You guys think I'm too naive. Li Li is a scumbag, and I've been fooled once already. This time it's not what you think."
"But you've put in so much effort, and he hasn't shown any appreciation?" Song Xi frowned, "Even an iron man would melt, and he can still bear to let you burn your fingers in the cold winter. You're there to be a secretary, not to do manual labor."
"Exactly! Any man with a bit of integrity wouldn't do such a despicable thing!" Lin Muyan agreed.
Knowing that a friend is standing up for oneself, Liu Er Bao is very moved, but she has also considered everything. Seeing the two of them getting more and more excited, I quickly comforted them by patting their shoulders. "I know you are doing this for my own good, and I'm not insisting on being tied to one path."
Lin Muyan looked at Liu Er Bao with a doubtful expression, as if intentionally displaying a pitiful look of being hurt by them. Seeing her two best friends seemingly calming down, she breathed a sigh of relief and said seriously, "I have failed before, so I understand very clearly that love is something that cannot be forced. I do like Wen Zimo, but if he doesn't like me back, I don't have to insist on him."
Lin Muyan quickly nodded, and Liu Er Bao laughed, "So, you don't need to worry. I'm really okay. If a man doesn't work out, there's always a career."
"I used to only work in the research laboratory in front of a computer. Now I've changed positions and work with people. It's actually a kind of experience for me. Maybe I'm not doing well enough, but compared to the me who didn't understand human relationships and the ways of the world before, I've made great progress."
"I even feel that with my current drive, I can reach the pinnacle of my career."
"Liu Er Bao used to be self-deprecating. She wasn't as persistent as Lin Muyan, nor as clever as Song Xi. They have companies and awards, but she has nothing, just drifting through life waiting to die."
But now, she is at Penglai Technology and although there is a lot to learn, she is very happy. She feels that she is needed.
After saying this, she smiled and said to the two people, "Don't worry about me, I'm doing well."
This time, she really is doing well.
Lin Muyan and Song Xi remained silent for a long time. After a while, they both raised their thumbs up at the same time.
Lin Muyan: "Well done, Er Bao, you changed jobs and even upgraded your style."
Song Xi: "Not bad, not bad. The young ones are teachable. It's not in vain that I've spent so many years nurturing them."
It's not clear who started laughing first, and the three of them hugged each other.
"Let's go! Today, big sister is in a good mood. I'll treat you to some shopping!"
Lin Muyan I shook the gold card held between my fingers, the bright golden color shining particularly brightly under the light.
"Don't be polite about buying anything, just take it, just buy it, if the card maxes out, I'll take responsibility!"
"You say that, but I've had my eye on a bag for a while."
Liu Er Bao was the first to raise his hand, smiling as he pointed to the nearest Hermès store, saying, "Someone else is paying anyway, hehe."
Song Xi habitually stepped in, saying, "Enough, how much does it cost?"
"How much?" Liu Er Bao replied with a look of disbelief, "If you went to Sister Yan's house, you'd know that this amount of money is nothing."
"Hey, let's drop this topic. It's just a Hermès bag, right? How many do you want? One in every color?" Before Song Xi could protest, Lin Muyan hooked her shoulder and pushed her into the store. The saleswoman couldn't stop smiling when she saw the three of them come in and immediately ordered seven or eight bags.
"Would the three distinguished guests like to take a look at the latest fashion this month? They are all meticulously crafted by the top foreign designers, and each piece is unique."
Ever since Sister Yan pampered her, giving her designer brands and even having bodyguards carry her bags, Liu Er Bao felt a bit conceited. So much so that when she returned home to her rented place, she squinted her eyes and decisively chose to flaunt her status."
Lin Muyan smiled and asked the agent to withdraw the house she had hung in Wufu Hua City, then handed the keys to Liu Er Bao with a twinkle in her eye.
"You're so cute, I'll give you a half-price discount."
Liu Er Bao nodded obediently, turned to rummage in her bag for her wallet, and Lin Muyan added, "There are only a few days left in this month anyway, forget it. Starting next month, remember to transfer the rent to me via WeChat."
"No problem!" Liu Er Bao responded with a simple and honest expression. In fact, Lin Muyan had wanted her to terminate the lease on the place she rented before, but she didn't want to embarrass Liu Er Bao by bringing it up. Now that she was willing to move out on her own, Lin Muyan was happy to hand the house over to Er Bao. After all, Lin Muyan could buy whatever she wanted and wasn't short of money.
Gave the spare key to Liu Er Bao, and Lin Muyan left.
Liu Er Bao looked around at the suddenly all his big house, and it really felt a bit... uncomfortable.
The room was arranged as before, even though it was listed for sale, there was someone responsible for cleaning, and every nook and cranny was spotless.
Liu Er Bao After arranging his luggage, he looked into the empty refrigerator and decided to go to the nearby supermarket to buy some things. Recently, Xiao Chen is not around, so the responsibility of taking care of the two Bedlington dogs fell on Wen Zimo. Both puppies are very active, and they need to go for a walk every day. Even if Wen Zimo is feeling lazy, he has no choice but to go out with them because they are so demanding.
Wen Zimo, holding a dog leash, entered the elevator. After a "ding," the door opened to reveal a very familiar round face. Liu Er Bao was wearing a red hoodie, and her round face looked rosy. She slung a round, tender yellow bag over her shoulder and carried two bulging plastic bags in her hands. The semi-transparent material of the bags made the various food items inside clearly visible.
"Manager Wen, Manager Wen, how are you?" She pouted, then sweetly smiled in surprise. Wen Zimo stared at the two large plastic bags in her hands for a while, hesitated, and then pulled his hand back into his sleeve.
"Didn't Lin Muyan sell the house?"
For some reason, his tone was a bit strange.
"Oh, it didn't sell, so it's rented to me."
She habitually scratched her head and stretched her foot back, which was holding a plastic bag in her right hand.
"Oh."
Wen Zimo snorted, walked out of the elevator, turned around and saw Liu Er Bao struggling to get into the elevator. He paused, took a step back, and was about to help her when two very uncooperative puppies started howling, eager to go outside and play.
Liu Er Bao Just turned around in the elevator, facing the door, and saw Wen Zimo for some reason giving her a fierce look, then walking away quickly.
She tilted her head, blinked in confusion.
The next day.
Liu Er Bao was planning to eat the sandwich she made on her way to work. As she was taking the elevator downstairs, she saw Wen Zimo sitting in the lobby with a displeased expression, dressed in a Western three-piece suit and leather shoes, exuding the aura of a successful man. Liu Er Bao was quite surprised. Just as she was about to say "good morning," Wen Zimo gave her a cold look and his gaze fell on the sandwich she was holding.
"With that kind of attitude towards work, do you not want to pass the probation period?"
Liu Er Bao She is not considered a company employee yet. She has only completed half of her two-month internship.
"Ah?"
She stared blankly, her sandwich being snatched away by someone.
"Ugh, this looks really ugly."
As the package is opened, Wen Zimo makes a disdainful comment and takes a bite.
The sandwich Liu Er Bao prepared for himself has lettuce in it. The taste of lettuce between Wen Zimo's lips and teeth immediately changes his expression, but he glances at Liu Er Bao and swallows back the urge to vomit.
Liu Er Bao didn't have time to stop him before he took a bite. He immediately made a face, pursed his lips, and looked like he wanted to laugh.
"It's really bad, didn't I tell you not to bring lettuce!"
Wen Zimo snorted without face and left. Liu Er Bao stood still for a few seconds, muttering, "This is for me to eat, not for you. What are you picking at?"
"What did you say?" Walking ahead, Wen Zimo suddenly turned around with a fierce expression. Liu Er Bao smiled ingratiatingly and said, "Nothing, I said Manager Wen is wise and extraordinary, with unique taste." Wen Zimo pursed his lips, unsure if the maid was praising or mocking him.
In the following days, Liu Er Bao ran errands at work. After finally getting off work, she was immediately summoned upstairs by Wen Zimo with a text message. He was very naughty and didn't let Liu Er Bao in. Instead, he eagerly sent her a screenshot, asking her to help him order takeout. "You better pay attention, no teriyaki sauce, I want salad. If you make a mistake, you won't get paid."
He slammed the door in front of Liu Er Bao, making Liu Er Bao stomp in anger. But after getting angry, he still obediently followed through. Watching Liu Er Bao's soft face through the peephole, Wen Zimo pushed back to the sofa with a smile, eagerly waiting for the takeout to arrive.
Because the weather was bad, the delivery guy was delayed. Liu Er Bao hurriedly carried the slightly cooled delivery upstairs and knocked on the door. Inside, Wen Zimo lazily responded, "Is it teriyaki sauce or salad dressing?" "Salad dressing, salad dressing."
Liu Er Bao saw him open the door, and as he reached out to take the delivery, the cold touch almost made Wen Zimo drop it. He frowned, "Why is it cold? How am I supposed to eat this?"
Liu Er Bao hesitated when he wanted to leave, but upon hearing his words, she looked up at him and said, "You can heat it up."
"You want me to heat it up? You're the secretary, this should be your job."
Liu Er Bao hesitated to reach for the takeout, but her wrist was pulled by Wen Zimo, causing her to stumble into the house.
"I'm starving, you better hurry up."
As soon as the two puppies saw Liu Er Bao come in, they affectionately surrounded her, seeking to be petted. Their enthusiasm was much stronger than when they were with Wen Zimo.
Liu Er Bao chuckled and patted the dog's head, only to realize that Wen Zimo's expression wasn't great. She quickly picked up the takeout and headed to the kitchen. It was just a matter of putting it in the microwave for a minute. Wen Zimo had been living for so long, it was impossible for him not to know how to do such a small thing. He was just curious about where Liu Er Bao's bottom line was. Liu Er Bao may not be very shrewd, but having been in the field of electronic technology for so many years, she was also a bit of a schemer. She was well aware that she had been pranked.
But that person is Wen Zimo.
She obediently heated up the takeout, and then set the steaming hot food on the table. The delicious aroma made her stomach growl.
"Alright, you can go now."
After ordering people around, Wen Zimo began to drive them away. Liu Er Bao looked longingly at the food on the table for several moments before being pushed out the door. As the door closed in front of her, she licked her lips unwillingly.
