Chapter 379 Ode to Joy 23

After that, Manager Bai's eyes kept wandering around them furtively, but he didn't dare to be rash with Luo Yining. The reason was that the person standing next to Luo Yining was obviously dressed in unusual clothes. It was obvious that he was a big shot and was definitely not someone that a small character like him could afford to offend. Therefore, even if Manager Bai was itching to get close to her, he didn't dare to cast his eyes on Luo Yining at all. In this way, Luo Yining felt at ease.

The meal went smoothly. Although there was an annoying "fly" at the table - Manager Bai, it did not affect the mood of Luo Yining and Ji Weizhi. Apart from having to endure Manager Bai's disgusting peeping eyes from time to time, everything else was acceptable.

Finally, the dinner was over, and Luo Yining took Ji Weizhi back to room 2204 without hesitation. As for the various disputes that might occur between Qu Xiaoxiao and Qiu Yingying in the future, she had no intention of getting involved at all. In her opinion, a stubborn person like Qiu Yingying must experience a painful setback in person before she can understand some truths about being a person and doing things. If others try to persuade and help her, no matter how legitimate and reasonable the reasons they hold, it is probably difficult to get her approval and acceptance, and she may even bite back. For this reason, when Luo Yining saw Qu Xiaoxiao secretly handing the note to Manager Bai at the dining table, she chose to turn a blind eye and pretend that she had not seen anything.

In fact, Qu Xiaoxiao herself was also at fault in this matter. Regardless of whether her action was a kind reminder or just a harmless joke, it is inappropriate to test others in this way. After all, the relationship between people should be based on respect and trust, rather than achieving a certain goal through such slightly cunning means.

After returning home, Luo Yining and Ji Weizhi came to the huge French window upstairs. They sat side by side, quietly overlooking the bright lights, busy traffic and flashing neon lights in the bustling city below. The city at night seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious veil, full of endless charm and temptation.

As time passed, Luo Yining gradually immersed herself in the peaceful atmosphere and fell into a sweet dream. Ji Weizhi keenly noticed the change in the breathing of the person beside him. The originally gentle breath had now become stable. He turned his head and saw Luo Yining sleeping peacefully with her eyes closed, like a sleeping angel.

Ji Weizhi stood up carefully and gently picked up Luo Yining, his movements were so gentle as if he was afraid of waking up the baby in his arms. He slowly walked to the bed, carefully placed her on the soft mattress, and then carefully covered her with a quilt. After doing all this, Ji Weizhi did not leave immediately, but quietly stared at Luo Yining's beautiful face.

Under the dim light, Luo Yining's face looked even more charming and lovely. Ji Weizhi couldn't help but lean over and gave her a gentle and affectionate kiss on her pink cheek. Then, he stood up, walked out of the room slowly, and closed the door. Back in the next room, Ji Weizhi also lay on the bed and fell asleep with full love for Luo Yining.

The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone through the curtains into the room, Luo Yining slowly woke up. She stretched, then got up from the bed, washed and dressed briefly before leaving the bedroom. As soon as she left the house, Luo Yining saw that Ji Weizhi had not left, and there were delicious dishes on the kitchen table.

A warm current suddenly surged in Luo Yining's heart. She quickly walked behind Ji Weizhi and gently stretched out her hands to hug his waist. Leaning her head on his broad back, Luo Yining said softly, "Weizhi, it's great to have you by my side." Before she finished speaking, she tiptoed and kissed Ji Weizhi on the cheek like a dragonfly touching the water, then ran to the dining table like a happy little bird and sat down.

Ji Weizhi was amused by Luo Yining's sudden action. He turned around and watched Luo Yining eagerly pick up the chopsticks to taste the dishes he made. At that moment, the taste of happiness filled the whole room...

After Luo Yining finished his meal, Ji Weizhi was about to leave. Luo Yining saw him off and then went straight to work.

When she got home from get off work, Luo Yining dragged her slightly tired body into the house. She put her bag aside, sat lazily on the sofa, and picked up her phone to check the messages. Sure enough, an unread message popped up on the screen, which was from Qu Xiaoxiao. After clicking it, a photo came into view. Looking closely, the photo not only showed Qu Xiaoxiao herself, but also the manager Bai who was talked about by everyone.

Luo Yining looked at the photo and thought to herself: It seems that the story of 2202 is about to add a new chapter. She seemed to have anticipated everything that was about to happen here. Thinking of this, Luo Yining smiled helplessly and shook her head gently. Although she was not used to Qu Xiaoxiao's impetuous and self-willed style of doing things, it was undeniable that this time Qu Xiaoxiao really helped Qiu Yingying recognize the true face of this Manager Bai.

Just as she was thinking, a noisy sound of footsteps came from far away. Luo Yining knew without thinking that it must be Qiu Yingying who lived next door who came back. She stood up and walked to the door, stretched out her hand to hold the door handle, and slowly opened the door. Sure enough, Qiu Yingying, who was standing outside the door, looked furious.

Qu Xiaoxiao crossed her arms over her chest and said with a smug look on her face, "Xiao Qiu, I was just about to tell you this! After my field investigation and personal testing, I have confirmed that your Manager Bai is a completely wretched man. Take the simplest thing for example, even if it is just a trivial act like a gentleman opening the car door for a girl, he actually took the opportunity to touch the lady's hand, and he is the kind of person who is greedy and wants to gain more benefits from it. Secondly, if I show him a little kindness, such as letting him touch my hand, or giving him a little sweet taste, and then hinting that he may become my boyfriend, the so-called 'prince consort', then I am afraid that from today on, you will face the tragic ending of a broken heart!"

The more Qiu Yingying listened, the angrier she became, and in the end she was completely unable to suppress her inner anger: "Qu Xiaoxiao, don't you still repent? Today I must teach you a lesson!" With a shout, Qiu Yingying pounced on Qu Xiaoxiao with bared fangs and claws like a wild beast out of control, and a fierce conflict was about to break out.

Seeing this, Qu Xiaoxiao was terrified and hid behind Andy in panic, seeking shelter. Luo Yining and Guan Juer were quick to reach out and hold the emotional Qiu Yingying. Suddenly, the scene fell into chaos, and everyone tried to persuade her, but Qiu Yingying had already lost her mind and wanted to teach Qu Xiaoxiao a lesson.

However, the old one is still the most cunning. Qu Xiaoxiao took advantage of the chaos and found the right opportunity to escape back to her home. Qiu Yingying was left standing there, stamping her feet in anger, her chest heaving violently as if she would explode at any time.

Luo Yining and Andy looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly, feeling helpless about the difficult situation. Afterwards, they returned to room 2202. At this time, Qiu Yingying had already been overwhelmed by anger. She seemed to be shrouded in a layer of fog, turning a blind eye to the truth. She still stubbornly believed in every word that Manager Bai said, and pushed all the responsibilities onto Qu Xiaoxiao.

"Xiao Qiu, I can understand how you feel right now, but I think that although Qu Xiaoxiao was at fault in this matter, there must be some problems with Manager Bai as well." Andy said.

But Qiu Yingying didn't want to hear these words. She cried with tears in her eyes, "No, you don't understand at all! Manager Bai has explained to me that Qu Xiaoxiao took the initiative to slip him a note, and then he wanted to give me a surprise because Qu Xiaoxiao was my friend, so he went to help her. All of this was caused by Qu Xiaoxiao. She was just jealous of Manager Bai and I being together, and she deliberately wanted to destroy our relationship!"

"Qiu Yingying, let's not discuss who is right or wrong about this matter. But have you ever seriously thought about whether what Manager Bai said to you is true or not? Why would he give you a surprise gift from a friend who helped you? There must be something wrong here, you have to think about it carefully. According to common sense, if he really wants to do this for your own good, and because this person is your friend, then he should have told you in advance, right? Or simply avoid this suspicion. But now, Qu Xiaoxiao handed him a note, and he accepted it without saying anything, and he didn't tell you about it. From this point of view, it is wrong for him to do this!" Luo Yining said seriously. She actually knew in her heart that even if she talked a lot, Qiu Yingying still had to make her own decision on how to go in life.

"Oh, I'm also confused about this matter. Why don't we wait for Sister Fan to come back and discuss it with her. But I think you should not act impulsively before you have thoroughly understood the cause and effect of the matter." Andy advised earnestly.

"Humph, I already know the whole story clearly! Manager Bai also explained it to me in person. He originally planned to tell me the truth after everything was over, just to make me happy. But no matter what, Qu Xiaoxiao and I will absolutely be incompatible from now on!" Qiu Yingying yelled angrily, looking like she was determined not to give up.

After that, the conversation ended in a very unpleasant way, with the air filled with embarrassment and disappointment.

Qiu Yingying returned to her room, but the quietness of the night did not bring her any peace. She lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. This was her first love, a relationship that was full of expectations and beauty, but now it had turned out like this, as if the whole world had betrayed her. Every time she turned over, the various scenes that happened during the day would involuntarily emerge in her mind. Those quarrels, misunderstandings, and sad words were like fine needles, piercing her heart.

At the same time, Luo Yining had given a kind reminder about Qiu Yingying's affairs, but the other party not only did not care, but even insisted on getting deeply involved. In this case, there is only so much she can do. Everyone has their own chosen path, and in the end they have to walk on their own. Thinking of this, Luo Yining didn't care and put it behind her.

On the other hand, Fan Shengmei's face was filled with happiness and satisfaction. She had just returned from meeting her first love, and her heart was filled with sweet memories. When that once familiar figure appeared again, all the beautiful moments came to her mind, making her indulge in the joy of love.

In contrast, Guan Juer's mood was completely different. She felt extremely wronged and couldn't sleep all night. She couldn't figure out why Qiu Yingying misunderstood her when she said those words out of concern for her friend. She really didn't know what she had done wrong.

However, Qu Xiaoxiao, the instigator, acted as if nothing had happened. She lay on her bed at night, reading business books and English materials with relish, completely forgetting the chaos she had caused. In her heart, these romantic affairs were nothing but passing clouds, far less important than the work at hand.

The next morning, the sun shone through the gaps in the curtains into Luo Yining's room. She stretched, sat up from the bed, and began to wash and prepare to go to work. When she walked to the door, she wondered if anything interesting would happen today.

After opening the door, Luo Yining walked towards the elevator. Just as she was about to reach the elevator entrance, she suddenly saw a familiar figure - Andy was standing there waiting for the elevator.

"Andy, good morning!" Luo Yining greeted Andy with a smile.

Andy turned around with a gentle smile on his face: "Ningning, good morning."

As soon as the two of them finished greeting, they saw Fan Shengmei and Guan Juer also walked out of the room. Everyone greeted each other good morning, and the corridor was filled with laughter for a while.

Then, the elevator arrived and several people walked into it together.

Soon, the elevator reached the first floor. Andy and Guan Juer walked together towards the company. Luo Yining waved goodbye to them and turned to walk another way to her workplace.

This week was relatively easy for Luo Yining, because her job was mainly to handle some interrogation matters. Facing a variety of different people and cases every day, although it was a bit tedious, it also made her feel fulfilled.
