Chapter 152 - 152 Done
152 Done
Although Dong Feng was relatively young, he had no flaws when it came to working.
When the first stage of the renovation was over, Qu Zhi couldn’t find a single mistake in it.
If there was anything wrong, it would be that Dong Feng was tormenting himself too much.
When the renovation workers were working, he would also help. He said that he could do it faster, but the workers were paid to do it, and he didn’t get a single cent.
Qu Zhi wanted to pa him, but he refused.
“Manager, didn’t you say that if I don’t do it, you’ll do it? It’s my duty to do this.”
Qu Zhi couldn’t argue with him, so she could only give up. However, she felt quite touched.
He used the most ruthless tone to say the most considerate words.
“Then what do I have to say for you to listen to me” Qu Zhi pretended to be angry and raised her eyebrows.
“I will return at noon and make arrangements for you in the afternoon.” Dong Feng glanced at Qu Zhi’s expression. “If you really can’t do it, let me make you a cup of tea before you leave.”
Qu Zhi thought he was just trying to flatter her, but when she saw his serious expression and how the corners of his mouth had dropped, she realized he was serious.
“Alright,” she said. This was the only way. It seemed like he really liked this job.
When it was almost time for lunch, Dong Feng came back happily. “Manager, I asked them to work faster today. This part just happened to be finished, so you don’t have to go in the afternoon.”
Qu Zhi nodded. He was really efficient. It was even faster one day under his watch.
With Dong Feng around in the afternoon, they worked much faster.
It started to rain in the afternoon. Jiang City was near the sea, and they had been working for quite a while. It was so stuffy and uncomfortable, and the air conditioner was not working.
The thunderstorms in summer were really comfortable. With a muffled thunder, the noise outside would become louder. People were busy packing their clothes and drying the food, but the company was quiet. It was very safe to be there.
After a few claps of thunder, the rain began to fall. At first, there were a few small bombs, but then they started to fall.
The sky was a beautiful dark blue, and the office windows were not closed. The wind blowing through the office had a different vitality, and the cool breeze hit her body, making Qu Zhi feel more comfortable than the air conditioner.
The heavy rain stopped for a while, and it was almost time to get off work. Seeing that no one had brought an umbrella, Qu Zhi asked the employees to go back first in case they were all trapped in the heavy rain.
The people in the store quickly left, leaving only Qu Zhi and Dong Feng in the office. Dong Feng wanted to pack up everything before leaving. He had his own car, so he was not afraid of rain.
At this moment, Qu Zhi’s phone rang. It was Liang Na.
“Sister-in-law,” Liang Na’s voice was sweet. “Are you off work? I want to treat you to a meal at the Western restaurant next to the mall.”
Qu Zhi didn’t know who it was, so she repeated, “Which Western restaurant?”
But Dong Feng had sharp ears and heard it.
“I know, Manager. Take my car. I’ll give you a ride.” He treated Qu Zhi like a king.
“Okay, you should go home after you send me home. Don’t go back to the company.” If he returned home only after dark, others would think that Qu Zhi was abusing her assistant.
“Alright!” Dong Feng promised.
As soon as they entered the Western restaurant, Qu Zhi felt that Liang Na had changed again.
Although her appearance hadn’t changed much, she looked much better. Her face was ruddy, and her eyes were bright. It seemed that she had been living well during this period of time.
“Why are you suddenly treating me to a meal? Did you get a promotion and a raise?” Qu Zhi guessed.
The last time they met, Liang Na seemed to be about to be promoted, so she wasn’t surprised at all.
“Yes, I was promoted.” Liang Na giggled and nodded. “But there’s one more thing.”
She was being mysterious, but it seemed like a good thing.
“What’s wrong? What’s the good news? Can you tell me?” Qu Zhi couldn’t help but smile.
Liang Na hesitated, and her ears turned red. “It’s like this, Yu and I…”
“It’s done?” Qu Zhi couldn’t keep her cool. She had long expected this day to come but didn’t expect it to come so soon.
In the end, Liang Na was so embarrassed that she covered her face. Her face was already as red as an apple. “Sigh, Sister-in-law, why are you so direct! We’re not even married yet.”
She couldn’t help but remind him again, “Don’t tell my Brother. He’ll definitely come to our company to make a scene.”
“I won’t say anything. Trust me.” On the other hand, Qu Zhi found her adorable. They were all adults, so why did they still act like children who had been caught in puppy love?
Looking at Liang Na’s shy expression, Qu Zhi sincerely hoped that she had met a good person. However, she still had to help Liang Na calm down and see if Xiao Yu was a good person.
