Because I had to prepare a plan to coax the uncle the day before, I didnât come to work at New E Media.
Therefore, when Jian Dan entered the company today, Yuan Xinjie rushed over to Jian Dan at a hundred-meter sprint speed.
Right as she was about to reach her, Jian Dan recalled the trick Zimo sister used to deal with her.
She raised her hand and used her index finger to stop Yuan Xinjie right between her eyebrows, and sure enoughâ¦
Yuan Xinjie was stopped in her tracks by Jian Dan.
Her arms kept flailing in the air but she couldnât embrace Jian Dan.
Having no choice, she gave up and dropped her hands, pouting at Jian Dan, âJian, you donât love me anymore, not even a hug is allowed!â
âPlease, youâre trying to strangle me every time, okay!â
âIâm just too excited, thatâs all.â
âEvery time?â
âHehe, because I get really excited every time I see Jian!â
âIf you strangle me to death, then you wonât be able to see me again!â
âOf course, I wonât! Given enough time, Iâll be able to control my emotions!â
Jian Danâs forehead was streaked with black lines. Itâs been a long time already, okay!
However, Jian Dan didnât continue to strike her down and nodded, âMhm, got it!â
âHaha~â
Yuan Xinjie took advantage of Jian Danâs distraction to embrace her.
But the strength of the hug was slightly looser this time.
âYou see, can I control it better now?â Yuan Xinjie said proudly to Jian Dan.
âYes, yes, yes!â
Hearing Jian Danâs words, Yuan Xinjie giggled like a child.
Jian Dan was about to head back to the office when she noticed that Yuan Xinjie followed her into her office. âYuanyuan, why donât you go to your own office area?â
âThereâs nothing much to do right now, and Iâm too bored being alone.
Being with Jian is different!â
âYuanyuan, donât make it sound like Iâm your lover, okay? My uncle would get jealous!â
âHmph- Iâm not a guy, if I were a guy, heâd be out of the picture!â Yuan Xinjie retorted with pride.
âStop right there! Even if you were a guy, Iâm still my uncleâs!â
âJian, are you saying Iâm not good enough?â
âNo, not at all! Youâre great! Just not quite as great as my uncle!â In her heart, her uncle was the best and the most outstanding, irreplaceable by anyone.
âFine, your uncle is the best, are you happy now!â Yuan Xinjie said in a huff.
âThatâs right-â Jian Dan lifted her chin proudly.
âHow come Iâm fed dog food as soon as I arrive?â Qin Rou had arrived at the entrance of Jian Danâs office without anyone noticing.
âRourou, Jian is bullying me!â Yuan Xinjie, finding support, wrapped her arm around Qin Rou, resting her head on her shoulder.
âAlright, alright, stop playing the victim. Tell me, Jian, how did you bully her?â âShe said I canât compare to her uncle!â Yuan Xinjie pouted and nuzzled Qin Rouâs shoulder cutely.
âIsnât that a fact?â There werenât many people in the world who could compare to Chu Liyuan.
As soon as Qin Rou spoke, Jian Dan couldnât help but laughâ¦
âHmph- even you are picking on me!â Yuan Xinjie suddenly acted sullen.
With arms crossed in front of her chest and a pouty smile, she looked just like an aggrieved child!
âOkay, okay, donât be angry, it looks ugly.â
âIâm not ugly at all!â
âRight, youâre the most beautiful! You look even prettier when you smile, so smile for us!â
The two cajoled Yuan Xinjie as if they were comforting a child.
Yuan Xinjie had this childlike personality, a bit willful, but very easy to appease!
âLetâs go inside and talk!â They were already at the office door; why stand outside?
The three of them entered the office together.
âRight, now that you two are here, I have something to tell you!â
âIs there a new work assignment?â Work-related matters were all that existed in Qin Rouâs eyes.
âWell- I suppose so!â Jian Dan thought for a moment and replied.
âWhat do you mean by âsupposeâ?â
âStrictly speaking, itâs not about work, itâs more of a personnel adjustment!â
âPersonnel adjustment? Jian, you canât be that heartless, can you? Itâs only my third day at work, and youâre going to abandon me?â Yuan Xinjieâs frown and nearly tearful tone crept into her voice.
âWhat are you talking about? When did I say it was you?â
âAh? Itâs not me? Thatâs good, thatâs good!â
âItâsâ¦â
âQin Rou, starting from tomorrow, youâll take my place! This office is yours now!â
Shouldnât most people be happy about a promotion?
Why did Qin Rouâs expression become so serious when she said she was getting promoted?
âRou, whatâs with that face? Not happy about the promotion?â
âYeah! Rourou, this is the first time Iâve seen anyone unhappy about a promotion!â Yuan Xinjie chimed in.
Qin Rou ignored Yuan Xinjie and kept looking at Jian Dan, âWhat about you?â
âMe? I wonât be coming in from tomorrow!â
As expected, Qin Rou had thought of this possibility when Jian Dan asked her to take her position.
âWhy?â Yuan Xinjie finally snapped out of it. âHow can you not come? I came to work here just so I could be with you every day!â
âI have some matters to deal with for the next two months, so I wonât have time to come over,â Jian Dan explained.
âNo way, whatever it is, I can help you with it!â Yuan Xinjie grabbed Jian Danâs hand.
âYuanyuan, can you not make it sound like itâs a life-and-death separation? Itâs just that I have some matters to attend to and canât spare time for New E Media, thatâs all. We can still meet up when I have a break!â
âButâ¦â
âYuanyuan, you have a real talent for directing, donât waste it. New E Media will provide you with a great platform, so go for it!â
âJian, you-â
âRou, Iâm leaving her in your hands!â
Qin Rou looked at Jian Dan and nodded resolutely..
