After contacting Elio, Mu Yao walked with a swagger for the next few days, and everyone else in the dormitory could tell that she was very happy. Zhao Xue, who couldn't keep things to herself, immediately asked about it.

"Mu Yao, is there some good news? You've seemed really happy these past few days."

Mu Yao nodded with a smile: "Yes, that's very good."

Zhao Xue walked over to Mu Yao and rested her head on her shoulder: "Tell me, what good news is there? Share it with us?"

Mu Yao said, "Hmm... I won't tell you for now, I'll tell you next month."

Zhao Xue asked in confusion, "Do we have to wait until next month?"

Mu Yao smiled and nodded: "Yes, we'll have to wait until next month, which is when we have a holiday. I'll share the joy with you then."

"alright."

Seeing that she wanted to keep it a secret, Zhao Xue pouted and went back to playing on her phone.

Li Ting told her, "If Mu Yao doesn't want to talk about something, you can't get her to open her mouth. You'll find out next month."

Although they haven't known each other for very long, they understand each other's personalities to some extent, and it is precisely because of this understanding that they can get along well and become good friends.

Zhao Xue, playing games on her phone, said, "Okay, by the way, Qi Yue, I asked about your part-time job. There's a supermarket near the school that's hiring temporary workers next month. The daily wage is 100 yuan. The job is to organize shelves, move things, and clean up after get off work. It's eight hours a day, and the pay is settled daily. I'll take you to the interview after military training."

Upon hearing this, Qi Yue immediately nodded: "Okay! Thank you, Zhao Xue."

Zhao Xue waved her hand: "It's nothing, we're all friends, it's only right to help each other out."

Qi Yue: "No, I still want to thank you. If I succeed in the interview, I'll treat you to a big meal!"

Zhao Xue didn't mince words: "Alright, then we'll be waiting for your feast."

"Okay, no problem!"

.

After the 15-day military training ended, Zhao Xue took Qi Yue and the others to the supermarket that was hiring temporary workers. The owner was an honest man. Seeing that Qi Yue was a student and was trying to earn money to ease her parents' burden, he immediately let her come to work. She could come whenever she had free time, and the salary was paid daily, just as Zhao Xue had said.

So Qi Yue went to work that day. Mu Yao and the other two said goodbye to her and told her to do her best. After they parted, the three of them went back to school.

On the way back to the dormitory, Zhao Xue did some calculations: "We have about seven or eight days off from class each month. I've included the half-day classes as well. We can also go when we don't have evening self-study sessions. The time is flexible. If we calculate it this way, we can earn at least a thousand yuan a month."

Li Ting nodded: "That's enough, and there are holidays too. The salary is doubled on holidays. Next month, she can earn more than a thousand yuan just for the National Day holiday. It's just that she won't have time to go out and have fun."

Mu Yao said, "I'm not going to play either. I have things to do those few days."

Zhao Xue nodded: "Yes, you said before that there would be a surprise, so remember to call us when the time comes."

Mu Yao: "Don't worry, I'll definitely call you."

It just so happened that Elio had returned from abroad a few days later, so they could have a meal together and get to know each other. After all, they were friends, and she didn't plan to keep it a secret.

But it's best to keep it a secret for now.

Give them a surprise.

Zhao Xue and the other two: Are you sure it wasn't just a fright?

Mu Yao: Hehe!

.........

For a while after that, Qi Yue didn't have much time to spend with them because she had to work part-time, but she didn't miss any of her classes or fail any of her exams, which was great.

When the National Day holiday arrived, Mu Yao called Elio as soon as she had a break to confirm her landing time. Then she went to a flower shop and bought a bouquet of Ecuadorian roses called "Bright Moon," a very rare variety, and of course, a bit expensive.

Because she chose only the perfect quality ones, all natural and not dyed, she bought fifty-two of them, even though they cost over two hundred yuan each.

Beautiful women with flowers are a stunning sight wherever they are, whether on the street or at the airport.

After getting off the plane, Elio led Ruby toward the exit. He walked quite fast because he couldn't wait to see Mu Yao.

Mu Yao stood at the exit, holding roses in her hands. As soon as she saw Elio and Ruby, she immediately raised her hand and waved to them.

"here!"

Elio ran quickly towards her, then hugged her and spun her around.

Even after they stopped, they still held each other tightly, the roses squeezed between them almost crushed.

"Yaoyao, I miss you so much."

Mu Yao pushed the flowers toward him: "Me too, these are for you."

Elio took it and laughed, "We thought of the same thing."

He released Mu Yao, turned around, took the flowers from Ruby's hand, and gave them to Mu Yao.

"This is for you."

Mu Yao smiled when she saw the exact same flower in his hand as she did.

"We were quite in sync; we both chose the same flowers."

Elio laughed and said, "Because Yao Yao and I are on the same wavelength."

The two gave each other flowers, then walked out of the airport hand in hand.

Ruby followed behind them, pulling two suitcases.

Looking at the two people in front of her, she pouted.

Hmph, all they know is how to boss people around!

After returning to Elio's house in the capital, Mu Yao looked at the unused furniture with a puzzled expression.

"Didn't you arrive a while ago?"

Elio pulled her to sit on the sofa and poured her tea.

"Yes, but this house was only recently purchased, right after Yao Yao got into Qingda University. The company headquarters has been here ever since. I'm not often in the country, so Ruby has been managing it."

He spends more time abroad because he's afraid he might be tempted to go see Mu Yao first.

These past few years, I've endured the longing while working abroad, which has been really tough, but as soon as I see Mu Yao, I don't feel the hardship anymore.

He wanted to give her a better life, to make her happy, and to give her the best of everything.

Ruby came out carrying fruit: "Yes, Yao Yao, you don't know, Elio secretly goes to Jiangdu to see you every year, and after seeing you, he goes abroad to work hard. It breaks my heart."

A great magician like her actually started a company. It's only because the conditions in this world don't allow it. Otherwise, she wouldn't need to start a company at all, and Spiby wouldn't have to stay with that little fox and be unable to come out. If it could come out, she wouldn't have to suffer so much.

Mu Yao looked at Elio and reached out to stroke his face: "You've worked hard all these years."

Elio shook his head: "It's not hard. Running a company is very interesting. It's something I've never done before, and it's also very simple. It's not hard at all. Yao Yao, don't worry."

He genuinely didn't feel it was hard work. Before he met Mu Yao and before he grew up, that was real hard work.

In comparison, he is already very happy with his life now and is content.
