Love belongs to the mountains and seas, I don't belong to you

When I woke up the next day, it was almost noon.

Thinking of the delivery task, Lin Cong packed up quickly and went out.

This time, Lin Cong was obviously much more familiar with the place than last time, and drove faster.

The time I returned to the factory was also earlier than last time.

In the polishing area, Lin Cong unexpectedly saw Xiang Shao.

"Mr. Xiang? What are you doing?"

Seeing Xiang Shao polishing the wood himself, Lin Cong couldn't help but ask.

"Make a desk."

Mr. Xiang was measuring, looking very professional.

Lin Cong couldn't believe his ears. "For a desk?"

"Yes, to make a desk. Lin Cong, hand me that one over there." Xiang Shao was completely rude.

"Oh, okay." Lin Cong took the wood and handed it to Xiang Shao.

Lin Cong kept staring at Xiang Shao. She couldn't believe that Xiang Shao had such skills.

Xiang Shao looked at Lin Cong's surprised expression and smiled, "Why do you look like that?"

"It's okay, it's just... I didn't expect you could do this."

That’s Young Master Xiang. Shouldn’t he be a pampered young master?

“I learned everything here.”

Looking at Xiang Shao's skillful movements, Lin Cong couldn't help but praise: "Xiang Shao, you are really the reincarnation of Lu Ban."

"How was the delivery this time? Was it smooth?" Xiang Shao thought that Lin Cong should have just returned from delivering the goods.

"It went quite smoothly, much better than last time."

"That's good."

"Mr. Xiang, what are you doing with the desk?" Lin Cong asked curiously.

This time, Xiang Shao paused and said to Lin Cong in a serious tone, "I made it for you."

"Me?" Lin Cong's eyes widened. She didn't understand what this had to do with her.

"Of course it's for office use. I plan to hire you as an assistant."

Xiang Shao spoke very seriously, and it didn't sound like a joke at all.

"Ah I?"

"Yes, your contract is well drafted. It's a pity to be a delivery driver."

Xiang Shao's words were indeed sincere. The contract drafted by Lin Cong was comprehensive and exactly what he wanted.

He really didn't expect that Lin Cong was so outstanding at work.

"Is it really possible?" Lin Cong asked.

At this time, Lin Cong was a little timid. To her, this was like overwhelming wealth.

"Sure, why not? Don't you want this opportunity?"

"Yes, I do." Lin Cong answered first.

"It will probably be more difficult in the future," Xiang Shao reminded.

"It's okay. I'm fine."

For Lin Cong, this hardship was nothing. Back when she was in the Xia family, she had to endure much harder times.

"Go and rest first, you can't help much here."

The working environment here is really bad, with wood chips flying everywhere. Xiang Shao intends to send Lin Cong away.

"Okay, then I'll go do something else first."

After saying that, Lin Cong walked away.

However, Lin Cong was indeed busy with other things.

She came to Xiang Shao's yard and prepared to take care of the flowers and plants.

After sprouting, these flowers and plants are growing well, and some are nearly half a meter tall.

Lin Cong selected the flower seedlings with good appearance and transplanted them into pots.

Then, replant the remaining ones and let them take shape.

After finishing these, the sun set.

At this time, Xiang Shao came back.

Seeing the yard look brand new, Xiang Shao felt more favorable towards Lin Cong.

"Some flowers should be able to bloom this year, while others may have to wait until next year." Lin Cong said to Xiang Shao.

"It will bloom sooner or later, no more than a year or two." A colorful picture emerged in Xiang Shao's mind.

“I hope to see it someday.”

Lin Cong suddenly felt a little emotional. Where will she be at this time next year?

He does not mean that.

Lin Cong's words made Xiang Shao's heart tremble inexplicably.

Hoping for a chance? Did she have other plans?

"By the way, the desk is ready. Do you want to go and take a look?" asked Xiang Shao.

"Okay!"

Lin Cong followed Xiang Shao to the office.

The space where the sofa and coffee table were originally placed was replaced by a desk.

"Is this place okay?" Xiang Shao asked Lin Cong seriously for his opinion.

"can."

Lin Cong sat down and tried it on, and found that it was in no way inferior to Xia's custom-made one.

Xia’s office supplies are all custom-made, and the desks and chairs used by people in higher positions are made of better materials and workmanship.

Lin Cong felt that the set made by Xiang Shao was better than Xia's in terms of texture and comfort.

Xiang Shao touched the table and thought to himself that things made of high-quality wood really are different. He should upgrade his desk when he has time.

Lin Cong looked at Xiang Shao and asked the question he had been wanting to ask, "Xiang Shao, actually, I don't quite understand why you choose this kind of life?"

Hearing Lin Cong's question, Xiang Shao smiled and said, "Isn't this kind of life good?"

"It's good, but it feels a bit hard. With the strength of the Xiang family, you are fully capable of reaching a higher level."

Xiang Shao sat directly on the desk with his back to Lin Cong.

Lin Cong couldn't see the complex emotions in his eyes.

"Indeed, that would be effortless, but I don't want to have too much interaction with those people."

"Those people?" Lin Cong was a little curious.

"Well, after going through so much, you should understand Bai Mo, Bai Luo, and even Xia Ruohan. What do you think are the benefits of working with people like them?"

After listening to it, Lin Cong was lost in thought and remained silent.

The status of these rich kids does bring them extremely abundant conditions and resources, so they are qualified to squander them at will, and even use them as capital to trample on others.

Xiang Shao continued, "Many things are rotten from the root, but I don't want them to rot."

Lin Cong looked at Xiang Shao's back and suddenly felt that his whole body was bright.

"I started working hard before I even graduated from university. While they were spending money lavishly abroad, I was barely making ends meet."

Speaking of this, Xiang Shao smiled self-deprecatingly.

"When I was in junior high, my parents divorced and they argued bitterly over property. They didn't care what happened to me at all."

"Although they disliked each other and divorced and lived separately, they still appeared to be in love to the outside world."

"They know that this is the guarantee for maintaining the Xiang family's wealth. For the sake of the family wealth, they can act for the rest of their lives. However, in private, they all play their own games."

Xiang Shao turned around and glanced at Lin Cong. "Isn't it ridiculous?"

Lin Cong had never expected that Xiang Shao would say this to her. She said with some emotion: "Fortunately, you became you."

This sentence made Xiang Shao stunned.

After thinking about it, he suddenly understood.

"Fortunately you became you", yes, fortunately he became himself.

No drifting with the tide, no decadence and depravity.

So, no matter how hard it was before, all the efforts are worth it.

At this moment, Xiang Shao felt as if he was completely relieved.

No matter what, what he always wanted was to be himself, right?

Now it seems that he has indeed done it.

"Assistant Lin, you will have to fight alongside me from now on." Xiang Shao's tone sounded relaxed.

"I will, boss."

Both men laughed.

Lin Cong turned her head to look at Xiang Shao's desk. She felt that they were actually sharing a room.

So, with such a good opportunity, should she continue to try to grab this backer?

Serving tea and water is so considerate? Could this be the type that Xiang Shao likes?
