A new day dawned in the CEO’s office of the Su Corporation.
Wearing a white T-shirt and pink shorts, Ruan Zhixian lounged lazily on the soft sofa, her long slender legs casually crossed and resting on the armrest.
Her golden hair was slightly tousled, scattered messily among the cushions.
The girl’s fingers lightly swiped across her phone screen before tossing it aside with a hint of boredom.
Sigh, as expected, it still feels like Lingling finds it hard to believe in my feelings for her. Yesterday, I only gave her a gift, and she actually cried like that…
What!
What exactly do I have to do to completely break down her defenses and make her understand my love…?
The golden-haired girl extended a slender, pale finger to her chin, pondering carefully.
Hmm, could it be that I’m still not proactive enough?
It seems a bit difficult to heal a yandere…
Ah, why am I sulking here? It’s only been a few days; it’s not that easy to improve a yandere’s heart, right?
You have to keep going, Ruan Zhixian! You must make Lingling know she is someone worthy of love!
Feeling somewhat discouraged, the blonde girl quickly cheered herself up, waving her phone to pump herself up. “Ding ding~”
A VX message notification popped up on her phone.
Huh, it’s Jin’er…
Curious, Ruan Zhixian tapped open the message. It was from Tang Jin’er.
Jinse Qingcheng: Zhixian! Guess what! Yesterday’s mission was a total success!
Jinse Qingcheng: Wang Yan actually agreed to have dinner with me. I think the vibe between us was pretty good!
Jinse Qingcheng: I’ve decided! From now on, I’m going to wait for her after work every day and ask her out!
Jinse Qingcheng: Then, on my days off, I’ll wait for her on her breakfast route to see if I can hang out with her all day.
Jinse Qingcheng: SpongeBob likes.jpg
!!!
Yeah, why didn’t I think of that!
Ruan Zhixian immediately sat up straight and rapidly replied to her best friend.
Ruan the Great Sage: Thanks, Jin’er! I know what to do next!
Jinse Qingcheng: ?
Not noticing the question mark that popped up instantly on her phone, Ruan Zhixian sprang up like a fish leaping, rushing over to the large desk.
“Lingling, let’s go on a date this weekend too!”
Su Ling, buried in today’s company report behind the desk, looked up in confusion at the radiant face suddenly in front of her, her brain momentarily frozen.
“Ah?”
Hey, this Ruan Zhixian, I kindly shared my love story with her, and she just ignored me?
Also, what kind of nonsense is she spouting now…
Sunlight streamed through the coffee shop’s glass window, casting a soft halo on Tang Jin’er’s deliberately low sunhat.
Beneath her large silver sunglasses, the young lady furrowed her perfectly shaped brows and, after confirming there were no new messages, put away her phone with some exasperation.
“Alright, let’s get back to business. At this price, you shouldn’t have any objections to selling the related information, right?!”
After a while, a woman returned from the restroom and took her seat again. The girl in the red dress lightly stirred the latte in front of her and began.
“Um, it’s possible… but Miss Tang, you’re not planning to do anything bad with this information, right?”
The woman opposite Tang Jin’er answered nervously. Judging by her figure, she seemed a bit… petite?
“Oh, don’t worry, I definitely won’t do anything bad. I’m not that kind of malicious person.”
Behind the sunglasses, Tang Jin’er smiled brightly.
Secretary Wang felt uneasy.
Since the last time she had ramen with Tang Jin’er, this red-dressed young lady seemed to “coincidentally” appear in front of her during every spare moment, always inviting her out with all kinds of bizarre excuses.
Like now…
3,
2,
1.
“Hi! Wang Yan! What a coincidence running into you here again. Are you just about to get off work today?”
Just as Secretary Wang’s mental countdown hit 1, Tang Jin’er appeared on the next corner on schedule, turning sideways with a smile to greet her.
The secretary sighed deeply.
“Miss Tang, if you hadn’t waited here for me three days in a row this week, I might have believed you.”
“Besides, this is inside the Su Corporation, isn’t it? How do you just happen to coincidentally walk this way and run into me?”
“Hmm? Wang Yan, what are you talking about? I’m just here for a project meeting and ran into you on my way back.”
Caught in her lie, Tang Jin’er blinked her big eyes wide and spoke without hesitation.
Secretary Wang rubbed her forehead and sighed again.
“So, what’s your excuse today?”
“Ah, today a dessert shop I really like is having a sale — second item half price!”
“I was just worried I wouldn’t have anyone to go with. Since I happened to bump into you leaving work, why not come have some dessert with me?”
Saying this, Tang Jin’er smiled sweetly and extended her right hand.
“Miss Tang, you’re probably not the type to only buy dessert during half-price promotions, right?”
After a moment of silence, the secretary replied tactfully.
“Oh, I was just scolded by my dad for wasting too much money recently. So now I plan to save a bit on daily expenses, of course that means buying half-price desserts~”
“What, is that not okay?”
Tang Jin’er spun her story effortlessly.
“Fine.”
After another long pause, Secretary Wang reluctantly nodded.
“Great! Let’s go quickly! If we don’t hurry, the half-price desserts will be sold out!”
Finally getting permission, Tang Jin’er grabbed Secretary Wang’s hand and happily pulled her toward the exit.
Secretary Wang glanced at their linked hands, then at the girl’s excited profile, opened her mouth, but in the end said nothing.
“Hey, Guoguo, do you think Miss Tang has been coming to look for Xiao Wang especially often lately? It seems like she’s here almost every day.”
“And it always feels like she can pin down Xiao Wang’s exact off-work time, as if someone is telling her the schedule.”
“Do you know what’s going on?”
In the break room, a female secretary holding a cup of water looked confusedly at the two walking outside and started chatting with Lin Guoguo.
“Um… well… I, of course, don’t know anything about it… How could I possibly know these things… haha…” The secretary who was spoken to shivered and replied awkwardly.
Sorry, Wang Jie! After all, even if I didn’t spill your schedule, Miss Tang would definitely find someone else to buy your off-work time!
Besides, Miss Tang is just way too generous…
Feeling guilty, Lin Guoguo lowered her head.
But Wang Jie should’ve already let go of the burden and gone on a date, enjoying life properly…
Lin Guoguo thought back to Wang’s refusal of Tang Jin’er and recalled the expressions of the two just now.
What the heck, Wang Jie…
The secretary, who had been blaming herself, suddenly burst out laughing.
Even though she’s trying to reject someone’s advances—
you don’t look unhappy about it at all…
