Lei Xiao smiled and shook his head. "It's not my turn to get promoted. After all, I only got promoted last year. People will be jealous of me if I get promoted again this year."
His colleagues in the institute were already jealous of him for producing the data analysis Huo Yao had sent him last year.
Since the institute was only evaluated once every three years, his colleague would have been the winner without a doubt if he had not obtained the data analysis last year.
Huo Yao tapped her fingers on the table lazily with a languid look on her exquisite face. "Only an unconfident person would think that it's not a good thing to be envied by others."
Said Huo Yao unhurriedly.
Lei Xiao felt as though his heart had been stabbed by her words.
Before long, the waiter served the dishes.
The food was delicious and suited Huo Yao's taste. She could not help eating an extra bowl of rice. As she ate, she contemplated whether she should invite Min Yu to this place next time.
It was not expensive.

Meanwhile, Min Yu's nose felt itchy at the thought of him. He picked up a tissue from the coffee table.
Old Master Min was sitting on a mahogany chair with the support of his walking stick. He stared at his grandson. "How long have you been living here? Are you going to move out again? Are you trying to piss me off? "
"The doctor said that you are very healthy and can live for another 20 years," replied Min Yu lazily.
The old man could not help raising his walking stick and pointing it at Min Yu angrily. However, he could not utter a single word.
Min Yu picked up his teacup and took a sip. "Anger is bad for your health."
The old man: "!!!"
Min Yu put down his teacup and looked at the time before he stood up. "Grandpa, I have something to attend to. I have to go."
"Wait, let me ask you, is that girl here?" The old man stopped his grandson and didn't care about being angry.
Min Yu looked at the old man without saying a word. Must Read Bookstore
The old man coughed dryly and muttered softly. "I know you went to the airport to pick her up yesterday."
"So?" Min Yu pressed his forehead.
"When are you going to invite her over for dinner?" snorted the old man.
"I don't have time. School is about to start," said Min Yu without hesitation. He headed out without further ado.
Before long, he disappeared from the entrance.
Mother Min came out of the kitchen. She noticed that her son was gone and asked in surprise. "Dad, where's Yu?"
Min's mother was a very refined person. She had the graceful temperament of a lady from a wealthy family, and even her voice was very gentle. She was forty-five years old, and her face was still delicate. Time had not left many traces on her face.
When the old man met his daughter-in-law's gaze, his anger subsided, but he still said unhappily, "Let's go."
"It's almost time. Why did he leave?" asked Mother Min.
The old man pursed his lips. "He said he was moving out..
Mama Min felt a headache coming on. "… Why are you moving out again?"
Grandpa Sheng hit the ground with his walking stick. "Who knows?"
Mother Min was used to her son not being by her side, so she thought her son was busy. She said considerately, "There are a lot of things to do in the family. Let him be."
Grandpa Sheng glanced at his daughter-in-law. "I'm afraid he's busy with family matters."
Mother Min was stunned. She didn't quite understand what Old Master Min was saying.
The old man snorted and didn't say anything else. He stood up and said, "Let's eat."
