Mr. Xie, please be gentle, the vicious female supporting role really didn't tease you
Chapter 21: Knocked Down by the Iron Fist of Capitalism
Seeing Xie Yan holding instant noodles and boiling water, Tang Wan decided to be a good person to the end. After all, she would need Xie Yan's help in the future, so she would take this opportunity to improve her favorability so that he would think of her in the next part.
She put the water cup aside, opened the refrigerator and asked Xie Yan: "I remember there is still some tomato beef sauce left from last night, do you want to eat it?"
Thinking of Xie Yan's meal last night, Tang Wan reminded him, "The sauce may not be enough. Can I cook you a fried egg?"
The lights in the living room were not on, only a small light was on in the kitchen. Xie Yan stood there holding instant noodles in his hand. His dark and narrow eyes were hidden in the shadows, making it impossible to see his expression clearly.
He didn't say anything, but Logan could feel him looking at her.
Tang Wan's hand holding the refrigerator door froze, and she suddenly realized that she had said too much and her attitude of flattery was too obvious, which made Xie Yan feel disgusted.
She stood in front of the kitchen refrigerator, not knowing for a moment whether to continue taking out the meat sauce as if nothing had happened, or to choose to leave with her own eyes.
Just as she was feeling guilty and struggling, Tang Wan saw Xie Yan walk out from the shadows, looking at the refrigerator and saying, "I want two fried eggs."
Logan: "..."
Brother, you are really hungry.
With the ready-made meat sauce, cooking is much faster. While Tang Wan was cooking, Xie Yan stood by and even handed things to Tang Wan. This attitude of not being able to cook but being willing to accompany her made Tang Wan give Xie Yan two more points in her heart.
During the thank-you banquet, Tang Wan sat across the table, the water in the cup in her hand swaying with the host's mood.
While watching Xie Yan eating pasta leisurely, she was struggling in her heart whether or not to tell Xie Yan about their future team up.
Xie Yan glanced at Tang Wan inconspicuously and saw that the girl was holding the water cup with a conflicted look on her face and a frown on her face. It seemed that she had something to say.
He swallowed the last fried egg, which was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, took a sip of water and said slowly, "I'm done. What can I do for you?"
Tang Wan glanced at Xie Yan's face. In this dating variety show, his face was no less attractive than the male lead Shen Yan, but unfortunately his presence was very low. Even Tang Wan, who had read the original novel, did not have any special impression of him.
Forget it, he is just a small programmer. If I rashly tell him that I want to team up with him to do activities in the future, he might be scared and think that I have some bad intentions.
Thinking of this, Tang Wan looked at Xie Yan opposite her and shook her head silently, then stood up in front of Xie Yan's wide-open eyes in confusion.
"I don't have anything to do. It's getting late. I'm going to sleep first. Mr. Xie should also get some rest as soon as possible."
"We have to get up early tomorrow morning."
After figuring this out, Tang Wan felt relaxed both physically and mentally. She walked upstairs with ease and even hummed a happy little tune involuntarily.
Only Xie Yan was left sitting there, thinking seriously about Tang Wan's hot and cold attitude.
Xie Yan had never been in love and didn't understand girls' thoughts. After thinking for a while without any result, he stood up and washed his bowl.
Xu Bei, who was exhausted by overtime work, scratched his hair in annoyance. Why is there so much damn work? It feels like he is dealing with documents from various departments all day long.
A message came in with a ding. Xu Bei impatiently grabbed the phone and was about to tell his group of friends that his father had forced him to stay in the company and asked them not to invite him to tonight's event, when he saw Xie Yan's name on the message box.
Isn't this guy recording a show? Why send him a WeChat message at this time?
He was just about to tease this person about whether he had finally realized the charm of him as the company's young CEO, when he saw Xie Yan ask him: "I have a friend who wants to ask you, what does it mean when a girl looks at you for a long time and then shakes her head at you?"
How does he know?
Although Xu Bei has many girlfriends, they are all after his money. Both parties get what they want, and it has never come to the point where he has to coax his other half.
After thinking for a moment, Xu Bei sent a tentative message: "Are you saying you are not capable?"
"Also," Xu Bei asked seriously, "Is this friend of yours you?"
"Fuck, who is it, looking at you for a long time and then shaking his head at you."
"That shouldn't be the case. Although I'm a little more handsome than you, you're also pretty good. You don't need to be picked and chosen in the current marriage market."
"Do you care about that person? If so, it would be better to ask her in person. Or if you reveal your identity, maybe she will be willing to be with you right away."
As soon as Xu Bei sent the last sentence, he saw a big red exclamation mark in front of it.
"No way, brother, I was just joking, do you really need to block me?"
Xu Bei wailed as he looked at his phone, and the next second his door was opened. His intellectual and gentle secretary was standing at the door with a sweet smile.
"Mr. Xu, we need this proposal tonight. You still have two hours to waste."
Faced with the oppression from his secretary and the secretary's father behind him, Xu Bei finally became frightened. He slammed the document in his hand, grabbed his coat on the chair and prepared to go out for some fun.
"I'm done with this, whoever wants to do it can do it."
"You can go home too. You've been here for so long and you don't get any overtime pay. You might as well go back and rest early."
"If my dad asks, just say I don't want to do it."
He put his coat on his arm and was about to go out. The keys to the luxury car in his hand flashed under the light. His words and actions revealed the frivolity of a dandy boy, and he acted as if he was the boss and no one could control him.
The young female secretary stood at the door, the smile on her lips motionless: "The chairman said that if you don't listen to his arrangements, he will suspend your card."
During the slow eye contact, Xu Bei's face turned red. Before he could say anything, he was stopped in his tracks by the secretary's next words.
"The chairman also said he wanted to sell your cars as well."
The young master of the Xu family, who had just called himself the master, was finally defeated by the iron fist of capitalism. He was very tactful and returned to his position with his coat.
But in order to make up a little in this war where he had lost everything, Xu Bei pretended to be serious and took out his documents.
"You can go back now. I don't need you anymore."
"It's okay." The secretary brought Xu Bei a cup of black coffee, and her tone and smile were sincere.
In Xu Bei's confused eyes, she chuckled and sorted out the documents, and replied softly: "The chairman said that if I work overtime, I will be paid five times the salary."
Xu Bei: “…”
This is the person who was defeated by the iron fist of capitalism. Just for five times the salary, we have to watch him at the door every day!
