SFS Chapter 284 Dream
Chapter 284 Dream
After finishing their snacks, with an hour left before they were supposed to leave work, the two of them went about their own business.
Yan Zhixu stood by the window answering a phone call, while Liang Liangwei and Lan Yin discussed work matters.
Liang Liangwei: "By the way, from now on, don't give me any more orders. Postpone any orders until after the New Year. If you can't postpone them, politely decline."
Lan Yin glanced at the calendar and said, "Before the Lunar New Year? But there are still about two months left. There are about ten days of free time before the holiday to make arrangements."
Liang Liangwei: "Hmm, I won't make any plans. I want to take a vacation and rest earlier this year."
She got her holiday early, so Lan Yin naturally got hers early too. Although it was a good thing, it affected her last month's salary and bonus. As migrant workers in China, they were all going out to work anyway, so they naturally wanted to earn more money, which made them a little... disappointed.
Liang Liangwei saw through it and said with a smile, "How about we take this opportunity to let you take on some orders on your own?"
Lan Yin's eyes lit up; this was exactly what she had been dreaming of!
"Can...is it okay?"
Liang Liangwei: "You've been following me for over a year and have learned everything you need to. You can try taking on orders independently. You can't just stay as my assistant forever; that would be such a waste of your talent."
Lan Yin knew that the clients she took on were all wives and ladies from high society, celebrities, and socialites—all of them were prominent figures. Take that mother and son from earlier, for example; the husband was a high-ranking executive at a securities company in Huacheng. If things went wrong, she might offend someone powerful or influential.
She was still scared.
Liang Liangwei didn't press her, and smiled, saying, "Let's look at the list. If you can't handle it, politely decline. If you can, give it a try. For example, taking photos of the baby just now was a good opportunity to practice. You're fine with the styling, I'll teach you some photography techniques when I have time."
Lan Yin was very touched: "Thank you, Sister Wei."
Liang Liangwei smiled and said, "There's nothing much going on today, so you should leave work early too."
After Lan Yin left, she picked up her calendar, looked at it, and then wrote down a note during a free period of time: "[Apply for a visa]"
Yan Zhixu turned around after ending the call and saw the words she had written.
Liang Liangwei put the calendar away, looked at him, and said, "I'm having dinner with some friends later, would you like to come along?"
Yan Zhixu raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised: "Me too?"
Liang Liangwei nodded: "They are two partners in the company, my college classmates. They said before that they would introduce you to them, and today is the opportunity."
Yan Zhixu looked at her with gentle eyes and nodded in agreement, "Okay."
Seeing that he didn't object, Liang Liangwei picked up her phone and made an appointment with Su Xiaorong and Gao Nan, and also booked a nearby restaurant.
As soon as it was time to leave work, she prepared to go home.
Holding roses given to her by her boyfriend and holding his hand, she walked confidently from the office to the front desk without any attempt to hide it.
Yan Zhixu no longer wore a mask, revealing his handsome face, and walked confidently and calmly alongside her.
It attracted countless surprised glances along the way.
The receptionist saw it too, her eyes wide as she stared at their clasped hands, and stammered, "Director Liang, isn't he your... new assistant?"
Wow, the "new assistant" under the mask is so handsome!
But why are they holding hands?
Liang Liangwei smiled at her and said, "Lan Yin was just joking with you guys. He's my boyfriend. He's off work today and came to keep me company."
"Boyfriend/boyfriend/boyfriend?"
The receptionist froze, remembering what she had said to this man earlier.
Liang Liangwei waved to her: "Bye-bye~"
Yan Zhixu glanced at the receptionist indifferently, but said nothing.
The two entered the elevator and went down.
Yan Zhixu looked down at his girlfriend's mischievous smile and couldn't help but smile.
"Where are your two business partners?"
Liang Liangwei tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and said, "They were too embarrassed to come together and said they would come down later."
Yan Zhixu asked, puzzled, "Didn't you just get off work? Why didn't you feel comfortable leaving together?"
Liang Liangwei glared at him, thinking, "Isn't it because you're so intimidated by his identity?"
Su Xiaorong confessed to her that she had told Yan Zhixu that she received flowers every day, and Yan Zhixu couldn't help but laugh when she heard it.
No wonder he had a tense expression when he returned to the studio, threw the flowers Shen Zhengming gave him into the trash, and then, as if provoked, ordered flowers for her too—it was all thanks to Su Xiaorong!
However, there's no need to explain this to him.
"I guess they're just really passionate about their work."
Once in her car, she placed the flowers in the center of the back seat and adjusted the rearview mirror so that she could see them easily while driving.
The restaurant I booked was two streets away, a 10-minute drive away; it was a Cantonese restaurant.
Five minutes after sitting down, Liang Liangwei saw Su Xiaorong and Gao Nan enter through the main door and waved to them.
Su Xiaorong and Gao Nan walked over and were stunned when they saw Yan Zhixu.
Holy crap, holy crap, so handsome!
Liang Liangwei: "Sit down, what are you standing there for?"
The two sat down stiffly, unconsciously becoming reserved in front of the handsome celestial being.
What made them feel uneasy was not just his good looks, but also the imposing aura he exuded; even a single glance from him was enough to command respect.
Liang Liangwei began her introduction: "This is my boyfriend, Yan Zhixu, whom you've all wanted to meet. These two are my college classmates, and also the founders and partners of the company. They said they would introduce you to them before, but you've been too busy and haven't had time, so it's been delayed until now."
Yan Zhixu nodded to the two girls opposite her and said, "Hello."
"You, hello."
The two of them quickly followed suit and greeted him.
Su Xiaorong sat opposite Liang Liangwei and looked at Yan Zhixu with a sense of courage, saying, "Um... Mr. Yan, I hope you don't take what I said to you at the company to heart."
Yan Zhixu raised an eyebrow: "What did you say?"
Su Xiaorong: "Well... when I said Weiwei gets flowers delivered to her every day, I was just joking. While it's true that people do send her flowers, it's definitely not as exaggerated as every single day. Besides, she keeps telling people she already has a boyfriend, so..."
She spoke somewhat incoherently, but Yan Zhixu understood what she meant and smiled slightly: "Yes, I didn't take it to heart."
Su Xiaorong was still a little uneasy. She looked at Liang Liangwei and saw that she was smiling, which reassured her a little.
Liang Liangwei smiled and said, "I've already explained to him that it was all a joke, he can understand, and he knows who sent the flowers. Let's not talk about this now, let's order some food first~"
Su Xiaorong was eager to put the matter behind her, so she quickly replied, "Okay, okay, let's order. This meal is on me."
Yan Zhixu twitched her lips but said nothing.
Call the waiter over and start ordering.
They quickly ordered their food, which was served promptly, and the four of them began to eat and chat.
Yan Zhixu was a gentleman. Although he didn't talk much, his eyebrows were gentle. He would take the initiative to serve his girlfriend food and pour her drinks, which Su Xiaorong and Gao Nan found novel and interesting.
As Gao Nan looked at him, she felt that the man looked somewhat familiar.
The person looked familiar, and the name seemed familiar too.
While no one was paying attention, she took out her phone and searched, and then she was shocked.
