Delayed confession

After a while, Qiao Yi walked up to her with a triumphant look on his face. Before he could speak, Xu Weixi asked,

"You found a job?"

"The one who knows me best is Xibao. When I make a lot of money, I will take my beloved concubine back to live in the palace."

“What’s going on?” Xu Weixi smiled and put his octopus-like friend down.

...

The next morning, Xu Weixi came to the office.

Wang Xing was the only one in the office printing something in front of the printer. No one else should have come. Seeing Xu Weixi come in, Wang Xing returned to his workstation, took out a key from the drawer, and handed it to Xu Weixi, "This is our office key."

Ignoring Wang Xing's inquiring look, Xu Weixi's face remained calm. After saying thank you, he walked towards his workstation.

Hearing that the people from the logistics office had returned, Xu Weixi decided to go and get some office supplies.

Following Wang Xing's instructions, Xu Weixi finally found the logistics office in a corner after many twists and turns.

"Hello, Master. I am a new employee. I am here to collect office supplies and apply for accommodation."

The person in charge of logistics is a fat middle-aged woman. Her surname is Ai and she is known as Sister Ai. She has a kind face.

Sister Ai walked into the warehouse, put pens, rulers, glue and some other office supplies in a paper box, handed it to Xu Weixi, and asked in confusion, "Are you from out of town?"

Xu Weixi didn't know why she asked this, but she answered truthfully, "I'm a local, but my home is far from the company."

"We do not provide single dormitories for local employees."

Xu Weixi frowned slightly, "There was no such rule before."

Sister Ai narrowed her eyes slightly and explained with a wry smile, "Well, this batch of recruits has a lot of outsiders, and housing is quite scarce, so I hope you can understand."

"it is good."

Xu Weixi was depressed but still had a programmed smile on her face, and walked towards the office holding the paper box.

"Weixi, good morning."

Xu Weixi looked at the smiling girl in front of him with a surprised look on his face, "Lingling?"

"Wait for me a moment, I'll go get a set too." Xu Weixi put the things on the steps, and soon Wang Lingling also came out from the logistics office with an identical set of office supplies. The two chatted as they walked.

“We will work together again in the future.”

"How could you?"

Xu Weixi pushed open the office door and found that there was no one inside, even Wang Xing was gone. He led Wang Lingling to her seat.

“Is this your position?”

Wang Lingling pointed at the desk next to her with an incredible look on her face, "What a coincidence, this is my seat, we can sit at the same table again."

Xu Weixi quickly pushed Wang Lingling, who was jumping up and down with excitement, back to her seat.

To be honest, Xu Weixi was quite happy to see Wang Lingling. After all, they had worked together very happily before.

However, I worked so hard for this opportunity, but I still don’t know whether this position is a blessing or a curse, while others got it without any effort. I still feel a little uncomfortable.

Wang Lingling didn't notice Xu Weixi's complicated feelings. She finally met an acquaintance who witnessed the entire process of her love life. He was also very tight-lipped. There were some things she couldn't tell her parents, so she just wanted to get them out at this time.

"It was Liang Paopi's matter. Somehow it got to my parents' ears. They insisted that I quit my job. I had to persuade them to let me come here."

"What about your boyfriend? Is he in another city?" Xu Weixi asked with concern while putting away her stationery.

"separated."

"Hmm? Haven't you met his parents?"

"You have no idea how weird their family is,"

Wang Lingling glanced at the office door and said angrily in a low voice,

"My mother originally thought his family was average, but she agreed because he treated me well. But do you know how he did it?"

As Wang Lingling spoke, she took out her cell phone from her bag and opened WeChat, wanting to show Xu Weixi the chat history, but Xu Weixi dodged her without leaving a trace.

"Isn't it about the betrothal gift when getting engaged? He sent me a WeChat message the day before the engagement."

Wang Lingling saw Xu Weixi's expression and realized that her previous action was not appropriate. She pretended not to care and put her phone on the table, then continued to complain.

"At first he said he wanted 12 yuan, and I didn't care. Then he said he didn't have that much and offered 6 yuan. I didn't say anything. Later, he said he didn't have the money and asked if he could not give the betrothal gift. I didn't think it was a big deal, because my parents had already prepared a car and a house for me. Then, I comforted him."

Wang Lingling paused.

"I was worried that his self-esteem would be hurt, so I said it very tactfully, but I didn't expect that,"

The more she spoke, the angrier she became, and she kept knocking her phone against the table. Xu Weixi couldn't stand it anymore, so he took her phone out and put it away from her hand.

"I didn't expect him to ask me if I could add his name to the property deed. I joked that you would be marrying into my family, so why not let the child take my last name?"

Wang Lingling spread her hands and continued,

"As a result, he got angry and said I was unreasonable and looked down on him and his family."

Xu Weixi stood up, walked to the front of the office, took out a paper cup, filled it with water, slowly walked to her side, and placed the cup on the table.

Wang Lingling picked up the paper cup and drank it all.

"Then I told him that if he wants to marry someone who doesn't want a dowry, he shouldn't date someone who does. It's a waste of time, don't you think?"

Xu Weixi thought for a moment and asked a key question, "Did he agree?"

Wang Lingling suddenly fell silent. After a long while, she said aggrievedly, "I agree."

Wang Lingling and her boyfriend met at a local social gathering when they just started working. The man comes from an average family and is a sales manager for a real estate company. He is young and promising, so such a problem shouldn't have arisen. Xu Weixi has witnessed their sweetness and quarrels over the past three years and originally thought they would get married, but she didn't expect it to end like this. She couldn't help but sigh.

But when he saw the capricious girl lying on the table next to him, wearing all branded clothes, and the classic LV item on the table was worth his annual salary, he felt that such a thing seemed to have a reason to happen.

But whose problem is it? The man has a problem, but what is the essence of it?

Wang Lingling's words echoed in her ears, "If you want to marry someone who doesn't want a dowry, then don't date someone who does."

"It's okay to date, but marriage requires that the two families are well matched." Xu Weixi murmured to himself.

"Xiao Xu, Lingling, go to the venue and check your seats. We need to produce materials for Professor Gu's lecture this afternoon."

Wang Xing's words interrupted Xu Weixi's thoughts and Wang Lingling, who was in a sad mood. The two of them hurriedly took their computers and filming equipment and followed Wang Xing to the venue where he would give a lecture in the afternoon.

The work was going on intensely and the emotions just now were temporarily put aside.
