Lu Hui pushed her glasses up. âMiss An, are you saying that we should secretly make preparations for Yun Nanâs wedding and only tell her about it when the time comes? Um⦠Wonât that be more of a scare than a surprise?â
Shi Xiu punched her palm excitedly. âThatâs brilliant! Miss An! I think your idea is simply fantastic! Weâll work together to hide this from my sister-in-law so she wonât be nervous about the wedding and have it affect her work. With so many of us, Yun Nan doesnât have to worry about a small matter like her wedding at all. Isnât that right, everyone?â
Everyone agreed.
âYeah!â
âThatâs right! Thatâs right!â
Shi Xiu stared at the strained-looking Lu Hui and patted her shoulder. âHey,
Lulu, whatâs with that expression? Youâre not planning to be a traitor, are you? Keep this quiet, or Iâll execute you on the spot!â
Lu Hui adjusted her glasses and said with a straight face, âThen, shouldnât you give me some hush money if you want to buy my silence? I wonât ask for much either; just be more cooperative when weâre filming the interviews and control your temper!â
Shi Xiu pushed Lu Huiâs forehead with her index finger and uttered through gritted teeth, âDid you secretly become Liang Hanâs disciple? When did you learn all of his skills at ripping people off?â
Lu Hui pushed her glasses up and huffily replied, âHeâs not anywhere near qualified to be my master! Just tell me, yes or no! If the answer is no, Iâll go straight to President Yun right now!â
Everyone else laughed as they watched the two girls bicker like children. Shi Xiu took a deep breath and stated, âAlright, alright, you win! Iâll behave myself and control my temper! However, we have to write down an agreement: You canât betray us. Thereâll be punishment if you violate that. As for the punishment⦠Hmm, Iâll need to think about that carefully!â
âAlright!â Lu Hui agreed readily. âThatâs fine with me. Iâll even give you an extra condition: I can be in charge of the overall planning of the wedding. You guys need someone to help plan the wedding, donât you? Thatâs my specialty!â
Shi Xiu placed her hands on her hips and commented, âHuh, I think you must have caught something from Liang Han! Youâre even talking like him! Alright!
Yes, we need someone like you to coordinate and make overall arrangements! That settles it, then!â
Lu Huiâs lips curled in disdain, saying, âWho would want to catch something from him? Iâd rather drink poison instead.â
Kong Zhenâs eyes never left Lu Hui. â This girl is really interesting,â she thought. â Come to think ofit, her way of doing things truly is similar to Liang Hanâs.
However, when Liang Han schemed against others, anyone whoâs experienced or familiar with Liang Han would be able to see through it, whereas this girl is really superb at playing dumb.â
The more Kong Zhen observed her, the more Lu Hui grew on Kong Zhen. After that, Lu Hui didnât waste a single minute. She swiftly listed out the entire wedding preparation process, including the parts that Lu Ying hadnât completed yet, and even arranged them in order in passing. Her hand-drawn flowchart was neat and clear.
Lu Ying praised, âWow, this kid is amazing. Looking at this chart, I can see that I still have a few important things to do, but with how she arranged them, I have a clear idea of my time schedule! Not bad!â
âThank you so much, Lulu,â Xu Yun said. âThis flowchart of yours is so clear.â Seeing how skillful she is, Kong Zhenâs liking for Lu Hui instantly increased several levels.
Yun Nan, kept in the dark, was chatting with Yan Tangâthe has-been singer whoâd participated in âEmbracing Lifeâin the meeting room.
Yan Tangâs smile was slightly bitter as she remarked, âIf it were in the past, I never wouldâve imagined that there would be a day when I could calmly sit down and expose my feelings to the world. I would rather die.â
Yun Nan smiled. âWas Shi Xiu the one who changed your mind?â
Yan Tang shook her head gently. âYes, and no. When I first met her, I felt we were people from two different worlds. She was a rich girl who never knew the worldâs suffering. How could someone like that understand the hardships weâve suffered since we were young?â
She continued, âAfter I spent some time with her, I realized that everyone suffers their fair share in this world; everyone has their own difficulties, and thereâs no way to compare them. Iâm even more certain of this when I later learn about your life stories from her.â
Yun Nan nodded in agreement. âNo one has it easy. Only by living your life well can you not have any regrets. Youâre letting your life down if you keep dwelling in one state. Looking back now, do you find that you can face your pasts calmly?â
Yan Tang nodded. âThank you! I think I can set off on my life again.â
Yun Nan reached out to shake her hand. âI look forward to working with you!â
After everyone reached an agreement, there was a secretive air in Yun Innovations. Everyone became busier, but they all had cheerful smiles on their faces. Seeing how hard they were working, Fang Xi went to the coffee shop down the street on her crutches, wanting to buy some drinks for everyone. âFang Xi!â A tall figure suddenly called out and rushed over, startling Fang Xi.
Fang Xi narrowed her eyes..
