    Chapter 111: A Bit of Green

    After dinner, Yu Zhili cleaned up the leftovers they had eaten and sat back down behind his desk.

    The office was warm.

    Fu Yining was wrapped in a jacket, lounging on the small sofa and scrolling through videos. Occasionally, she openly glanced at Yu Zhili, who was engrossed in his work.

    #WeAreReallyAmazing(4)

    AAA Exam Wholesale: [MilkTeaZi, where are you? You joining?]

    AAA Milk Tea Wholesale: [I'm out right now, might be a bit late.]

    AAA Exam Wholesale: [☆ Okay, should we start without you?]

    AAA Milk Tea Wholesale: [OK!]

    Fu Yining closed the chat window and thought of the latest spokesperson for the mobile game she played, Liang Hengyuan.

    Unfortunately, none of the members from the Echo boy band that Song Qingyu liked were chosen. They had selected the more famous Liang Hengyuan, who has won numerous acting awards.

    Liang Hengyuan had a large number of fans, most of whom were around thirty years old, had jobs, and were willing to spend money on him.

    Fu Yining had already seen the game promotion ad Liang Hengyuan shot. You could say he did a great job, and his fans will definitely love it.

    ——[Does Fu Xiaoning want some cake?]

    Zhong Qi suddenly messaged her.

    Cake?

    Fu Yining: [Whose birthday is it?]

    Zhong Qi: [Not a birthday cake, just some regular small cakes. A friend opened a new shop, and I've tried them. The taste is good. If you want, I can bring some over right now.]

    Eat? Of course, she had to!

    Fu Yining: [But I'm not home right now, can you come to Yu Zhili's company?]

    She felt like she was pushing her luck, but Zhong Qi still agreed.

    ——[Okay, wait for me downstairs, I'll be right there.]

    Fu Yining quickly thanked the lovely and charming Zhong Boss.

    She got up from the small sofa, put on her jacket, and Yu Zhili looked up at her.

    "Zhong Qi is bringing something over. Should I go down and get it?"

    "Mm, go ahead."

    Yu Zhili was about to suggest sending an assistant, but it made more sense for his wife to go down since Zhong Qi was coming.

    After all, they were good friends.

    Shortly after Fu Yining left the office, Liu Rui eagerly came over.

    "What do you need, Madam? Can I help you?"

    "No need, I'm just going downstairs to grab something and will be right back."

    Seeing that she truly declined, Liu Rui didn’t insist anymore and only accompanied her to the elevator door.

    "Be careful on your way, Madam!"

    "Yes."

    Worried that Zhong Qi might be getting impatient, Fu Yining pressed the elevator button to go down.

    Receptionist Su Ying had already finished work and was packing up.

    As soon as she saw Fu Yining stepping out of the elevator, she immediately flashed a bright smile.

    "Madam, hello!"

    Fu Yining smiled back politely.

    "Hello."

    Wow, the lady looks so gentle when she smiles. Should she ask for her contact info?

    Before she could decide, Fu Yining had already left the building.

    So Su Ying could only cry a little, regretting missing another good opportunity.

    "Su Ying, you're still here, perfect! I need something from you!"

    Su Ying was texting a friend when she heard that irritating voice.

    Cursing in her mind, she put on a fake smile and asked, "Le Le, what is it?"

    Zhao Xiaole, with her curly hair and elegant white blazer, clicked across the floor in her black high heels.

    She came over and placed a stack of documents in front of Su Ying. "Got time to play on your phone? Finish organizing this report and bring it to me later."

    Su Ying didn’t take the documents and politely refused, "Le Le, I'm already off duty."

    She wasn’t about to do anything that wasn’t her job!

    Zhao Xiaole frowned, dissatisfied. "You're still here, just do me this favor."

    A favor? Overtime pay wouldn’t go into her pocket, so why should she do it?

    And if it were someone else, it might be fine, but she absolutely wouldn’t help someone like Zhao Xiaole, who always bossed people around arrogantly!

    "Le Le, you should do it yourself. I'm in a hurry to catch a bus home!"

    Without waiting for a reply, Su Ying grabbed her bag and rushed out the door.

    Zhao Xiaole, holding the stack of documents, hadn’t expected Su Ying to refuse her and looked shocked.

    Su Ying made it out of the building and could almost hear Zhao Xiaole’s frustrated mutterings behind her.

    She smirked and looked up to see a beautiful woman standing at the intersection.

    Wow, it's the madam!

    Huh, is she waiting for someone?

    Fu Yining was indeed waiting for Zhong Qi, standing in a prominent spot for her to find easily.

    Zhong Qi had told her that she would be there soon, but she seemed to have arrived a bit early. Nevertheless, it was fine. She'd rather wait for others than make them wait for her.

    The chilly late autumn wind sent shivers down her spine. Fu Yining had her hands in her pockets and idly observed the passing vehicles.

    While she was watching the cars, Su Ying watched her, contemplating approaching her multiple times.

    Fu Yining remained oblivious to the person behind her, engrossed in the view ahead.

    A flashy red sports car passed by right before her eyes. The man driving had one hand on the steering wheel and the other on the car window, with a cigarette between his fingers.

    Fu Yining was shocked, not just by the man’s audacity to smoke under full surveillance, but even more so by the woman beside him.

    Wasn't that Zheng Anran?

    Fu Yining couldn’t help but wonder what the relationship was between Zheng Anran and the man driving.

    Relative? Friend? In any case, they seemed somewhat intimate.

    Yu Mingze better not be getting cheated on, or she’d roast him mercilessly—even if he were her own son!

    Inside the red sports car, Qin Lang flicked the cigarette butt away and then closed the window.

    Zheng Anran rubbed her nose, masking the look of disgust in her eyes. She really disliked the smell of cigarettes but endured it for the man’s sake.

    “Qin Lang, are we going to XX?”

    “Yeah, haven’t you always wanted to go? Luckily, I’m free today.”

    “Great!”

    Though puzzled about how a cop like Qin Lang always had time for her, she didn’t mind as long as he met all her demands.

    Maybe Qin Lang was some trust-fund kid forced into a job by his family.

    Zheng Anran had clearly convinced herself. While keeping Yu Mingze in the dark, she strung Qin Lang along. Recently, her life had been quite comfortable.

    The red sports car drove on the wide main road of the city and passed by a bright yellow sports car.

    Seeing the familiar license plate, the man in the yellow sports car chuckled.

    He drove to a luxurious hotspot, then confidently headed to the exclusive VIP suite reserved for VVIPs.

    “Brothers, I’m here!”

    “You’re really a busy man, why did you only come now?”

    “You gotta take a penalty shot—it’s the rule!”

    Yu Mingze laughed and picked up a fine wine from the table, handing it to him.

    “Lu Yan, you’re late, this is your punishment!”
