Chapter 20
Xu Wenping was doubting himself, not to mention the little girl. After being bullied by the manager, her heart was in a mess. At this moment, when she saw that the money on the medical card had been transferred to the account, the biggest stone in Yu Youling’s heart was put down.
However, Xu Wenping was holding her hand. Although she was at a loss, she didn’t have the intention to pull it out for a moment. Yu Youling followed behind and looked at Xu Wenping’s side profile. She was anxious and her heart was very conflicted.
‘Yu Youling, oh Yu Youling! Hurry up and let go. What are you doing?’
‘Why would this young and handsome man approach me for no reason? Will he be like that fat manager and force me to do those bad things?’
‘But this person was really handsome… Being forced by him seems like a good idea.’
‘Aiya, aiya!’
‘Yu Youling, how can you be so shameless!’
She was so embarrassed.
Yu Youling, who was following behind, blushed.
The two of them walked out of the department one after another. At this moment, two colleagues who were working behind them looked up. One of the women poked the colleague beside her and said, “Hey, hey, hey… Did you see that? Yu Youling was led out by a man.”
“I saw it, I saw it! I saw that the man’s card is a special guest pass. He’s not from our company?” The other salesperson nodded in a low voice.
The salesperson in front smiled slightly, as if he had the intention to gossip. She raised her eyebrows and said, “Should we tell the third division?”
The salesperson behind her was slightly stunned. Then, she revealed an expression that she understood and said, “Aren’t you too bad? Fanning the flames, that guy from the third division really likes Yu Youling!”
“We’re just watching the show! Not fun?”
“It’s fun!”
“Then let’s make a bet. I bet that Yu Youling likes that guy from the third division!”
“That might not be the case. Look at this outsider. Who knows what relationship they have outside? I bet that Yu Youling likes this new handsome guy! Besides, look at how good-looking this handsome guy is!”
….
Xu Wenping naturally did not know that the two of them had been schemed against behind their backs, and that they had even started a bet.
When he and Yu Youling arrived at the cafeteria, there weren’t many people there. The Imperial Corporation’s canteen was not bad either. They could order dishes, had private rooms, and had waiters. It was not inferior to the restaurants outside.
After the two of them ordered the dishes and sat down, Xu Wenping took the lead and said, “Xiao Yu, how long have you been at the company?”
“It’s still an internship. It hasn’t even been two months.”
“Impressive. You’ve only been in the company for two months and you’re already number one in terms of performance,” Xu Wenping praised.
Yu Youling was stunned for a moment before she smiled sadly and said, “Mr. Xu, I’m not lying to you. My family background isn’t that good. I’ve been working part-time since high school, so I might have a little understanding of the ways of the world.”
“To be honest, I’m quite satisfied with doing business in the Imperial Corporation. Our external customers only need to be related to economic resources. We don’t have that many social interactions. Sigh… Unfortunately, our department… Sigh.”
Yu Youling let out a deep sigh, then revealed a bright smile. She stretched out her jade-like hand and shook Xu Wenping’s hand. She smiled and said, “Actually, it doesn’t matter… I’m already very satisfied with the situation. Thank you very much, Mr. Xu. When I earn enough money, I will definitely return it to you!”
Xu Wenping raised his eyebrows slightly, and then he couldn’t bear to show a pitiful expression. He said in a low voice, “Xiao Yu, I… Can I hear your story?”
Hearing Xu Wenping’s low voice, Yu Youling was stunned.
Looking at Xu Wenping’s gentle and tender expression, Yu Youling didn’t know why, but the sadness that she had been suppressing suddenly rose to her chest.
Yu Youling bit her red lips, tears welling up in the corners of her eyes. She lowered her head and touched her hair as she said, “It’s nothing… My father passed away early, and my mother is very sick… I have a younger brother at home. Although he’s very sensible, he’s still relatively young.”
“Everything is fine now, as long as my mother can get better. My younger brother will be in junior high school next year… Every year, he receives a certificate from his class… Anyways.”
Seeing Xu Wenping’s hand reach over, Yu Youling couldn’t help but hold his warm hand. She bit her lip and said, “Anyway, I always think that as long as I persist for a while longer, I will always see the light.”
After saying that, Yu Youling felt a little lonely. She thought that Xu Wenping would be like other men and take advantage of the situation to comfort her about her background. She did not expect Xu Wenping to laugh.
“What are you laughing at?”
Xu Wenping curled his lips and whispered into Yu Youling’s ear, “I suddenly have a plan.”
“Ah?”
“Tonight, after we get a room, you can call that fatty as usual and ask him to come out. Then, we’ll… This way, this way, this way!”
Xu Wenping’s voice became softer and softer as he spoke, but Yu Youling could hear him. Although the conversation was a little long, she had to admit that at this moment, her lonely mood disappeared. Yu Youling, who had been an obedient child since she was young, felt her heart beat a little. She said in a low voice, “10,000. What if the other party takes revenge?”
“Hehe… Don’t worry. I’ll take care of everything.”
Xu Wenping was certain of victory.
At this moment, his phone rang.
When he took it out, he didn’t feel anything. When he saw the caller ID, Xu Wenping’s heart suddenly froze. Then, he smiled at Yu Youling and said, “Wait a minute, I have to take this call.”
When he came out of the door, Xu Wenping’s expression changed drastically, and his eyes moved left and right.
He thought to himself, ‘Oh no, I still have a mission to register our marriage with Su Yurou within a month. If I accompany Yu Youling tonight, what will happen to the mission?’
That was right, the call was from Su Yurou.
Xu Wenping couldn’t think of a plan, so he decided to pick up the phone first.
“Hey… Yurou. Have you had lunch?” Xu Wenping said warmly,
“Eat… I’ve eaten. Wenping… What are you doing?”
Hearing Su Yurou’s nervous tone, Xu Wenping was a little surprised and casually said, “I’m just casually strolling outside to digest my food! What’s wrong with you? Why do you sound a little nervous?”
“That… This… Wenping…”
“Hmm?”
Su Yurou bit her lip and said with difficulty, “Wenping, I might have to work overtime tonight. I have an appointment with President Huang of Imperial Beauty at 6 in the evening… It’s not that I don’t have time. Something happened at the company in the afternoon and I still need to resolve it. I might be back a little late.”
“You… Are you angry?”
Xu Wenping was slightly stunned.
Did Yurou really care about his opinion?
At the same time, he was overjoyed. She came back late, didn’t she create an opportunity for him?
That was great!
On the surface, Xu Wenping said gently, “It’s alright! Before you go home, let me know. Driver Xu will come to pick you up!”
“Annoying!”
