Feng Yu watched Xiaoping in this state and couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache. She quickly soothed Xiaoping's emotions.
Xiaoping in front of her was three or four years younger than her. It was an early age to enter society, so Feng Yu took extra care of her.
"Thank you, Sister Xiaoyu. I feel much better," Xiaoping said.
Xiaoping digested her emotions quickly and then got back into work mode.
As for Feng Yu, there were a continuous stream of rough jobs assigned to her. She didn't complain.
"Whose proposal is this!" The team leader came out. He looked around and pointed at a stack of proposals in his hand.
Everyone was extremely scared. Then, Feng Yu suddenly stood up.
"It's mine. What's the matter?"
The team leader frowned and gave her a quick glance. Feng Yu was a tough nut to crack. He couldn't get her into his clutches, so he completely gave up the idea of keeping her as his mistress.
"You, come to my office later!"
As soon as the team leader said this, everyone started whispering again.
"Look, she's going to the office again. There must be something shady going on."
"I think so too. Otherwise, how could Feng Yu..."
The team leader frowned, obviously dissatisfied. Then he shifted his gaze to An Qing, and his tone immediately changed.
"An Qing, you come to my office later too. I have something to discuss with you."
An Qing didn't even look at him and just replied coldly, clearly showing her disdain for the team leader.
Even though she showed her contempt, the team leader dared not say a word.
He was like a snobbish lackey.
When Feng Yu and An Qing entered the team leader's office together, the team leader glanced at Feng Yu and said coldly, "These two proposals are both excellent. According to the requirements of the higher - ups, employees need to go out for expansion and conduct a market survey."
"So, I've chosen you two. The manager will accompany us to do the market survey. You should know how to do it!" The team leader said coldly. When he looked at Feng Yu, his expression was clearly a warning.
As soon as Feng Yu heard that she had to go for the market survey with Yi Chen, she immediately frowned and obviously didn't want to go.
"Team leader, I don't want to go. You can give this opportunity to someone else. I'd rather just focus on my work."
The team leader frowned upon hearing this.
"You're an employee. Are you defying my order!?"
An Qing beside them sneered, "Come on, isn't this exactly what you want? You're such a hypocritical woman." After saying that, An Qing directly walked out of the office in front of the team leader.
She was even more arrogant than Feng Yu, but the team leader still didn't dare to say anything.
When Feng Yu walked out of the office, she was in a bad mood. Xiaoping saw this and quickly handed her a candy.
"Sister Xiaoyu, eat this candy. Candy is sweet. If you eat it, you'll feel sweet too."
Feng Yu didn't refuse. She took the candy and ate it in one bite. Sure enough, the sweetness reached her heart.
When it was time to get off work, it started to rain. To avoid seeing Yi Chen, Feng Yu rushed out as soon as she got off work.
Coincidentally, she saw Xiaoping waiting for the rain to stop.
Xiaoping was standing in front of the company gate, stretching out her hand to feel the big raindrops. Finally, she sighed helplessly.
Suddenly, a black umbrella appeared above her head. When she looked up and followed the hand holding the umbrella, Xiaoping suddenly exclaimed, "Sister Xiaoyu!"
"I'll take you home."
Xiaoping wanted to refuse, but given the weather, she had no reason to do so, so she could only agree.
Sitting in Feng Yu's car, Xiaoping was extremely cautious. She kept looking around, afraid of dirtying the car.
Feng Yu saw this and quickly said, "Relax. Do you think I'm going to kidnap you?"
Xiaoping lowered her head, obviously embarrassed.
"This is my... first... time sitting in such a nice car."
Feng Yu was stunned for a while at Xiaoping's answer, and then didn't say anything else.
When they arrived at Xiaoping's home, Xiaoping suddenly invited her warmly, "Sister Xiaoyu, if you don't mind, come and sit in my home for a while."
Looking at Xiaoping's sweet smile, Feng Yu had no reason to refuse, so she agreed.
Xiaoping lived in an old - fashioned community. Both the buildings and facilities were old.
When they reached the seventh floor, Feng Yu was obviously out of breath. Xiaoping quickly scratched her head and said with a smile, "Sorry, the floor is too high. The rent for the seventh floor is much cheaper than the others..."
Feng Yu quickly waved her hand and said, "No, it's just that I lack exercise."
As soon as Xiaoping opened the door, two children inside exclaimed, "Sister! You're back. Brother and I are hungry."
Feng Yu was a little surprised. The two children in front of her were a boy and a girl. The boy looked about four or five years old, and the girl looked eight or nine.
They were both very young.
"Okay, sister will cook for you right away. And this is sister's friend. You can call her Sister Xiaoyu."
"Hello, Sister Xiaoyu!"
Hearing the two children's synchronized words, Feng Yu's heart melted.
While Xiaoping was busy doing housework, Feng Yu looked around. This was just a one - bedroom and one - living - room apartment. It was obviously crowded for three people, and the things were placed in a messy and crowded way.
The two children were sitting on the floor playing with old toys. Even so, they seemed to be having a great time.
"Sister Xiaoyu, I'm sorry to make you laugh. Our family is a bit..."
Feng Yu quickly shook her head and said, "No, no. But where are your parents?"
As soon as Feng Yu mentioned this, Xiaoping's face changed instantly. Feng Yu immediately realized that she had said the wrong thing and quickly apologized.
"Sister Xiaoyu, our mom and dad have gone to a very far place. Sister said they will come back when we grow up." Hearing the little girl's innocent words, Feng Yu felt a hundred different emotions in her heart.
When Feng Yu left, the three of them even accompanied her to the door.
In the car, Feng Yu really didn't expect Xiaoping's living environment to be so difficult.
The next day, Xiaoping asked for leave due to health reasons. This made Feng Yu a little worried.
"Feng Yu, are you ready? The car is waiting downstairs," the secretary came to inform her.
Feng Yu didn't dare to delay and immediately went downstairs to the company.
There were two cars in total. The manager had one, and the other three of them would take the other one.
"Miss Feng, please take this car," the secretary said with a smile to Feng Yu.
Feng Yu ignored her and directly got into the other car. This immediately changed the secretary's face.
"Since she won't go, I will," An Qing said with a smile and then directly got into the car where Yi Chen was.
When Yi Chen saw that it was An Qing, his face immediately darkened.
"Why are you here?"
An Qing immediately felt unhappy.
"What? If Feng Yu can come, why can't I? Brother Yi Chen, after all, we grew up together..."
"Okay, I know. Let's go," Yi Chen didn't want to listen to any more nonsense and directly told the driver to start the car.
After they arrived at the destination, Feng Yu didn't choose to meet Yi Chen but started the market survey on her own.
