"No matter who it was yesterday, I would have sent him back. You don't have to thank me like this." After Jiujiu finished speaking, she placed the lunchbox on the table and looked into Xiaoxiao's eyes. "You can eat this lunchbox yourself."
After Jiujiu finished speaking, she left without looking back.
After Jiujiu left, Xiaoxiao's colleagues all looked at Xiaoxiao in confusion. They didn't seem to understand how Xiaoxiao got involved with Jiujiu, the manager.
Before she got Jiujiu, Xiaoxiao had to stay in the company for a long time and build a good relationship with her colleagues. Therefore, when she was asked by her colleagues, Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "I worked overtime yesterday and got off work late. When I went downstairs, I realized it was raining heavily. I didn't bring an umbrella, so I waited downstairs for the rain to stop. Coincidentally, Manager Chen passed by and pitied me, so he sent me home. That's why I made a lunchbox to thank him."
Xiaoxiao had always been popular in the office. Moreover, the rain yesterday was indeed very heavy. Jiujiu sent Xiaoxiao home, so it seemed reasonable for Xiaoxiao to make a lunchbox to thank Jiujiu.
The people in the office asked a few questions and didn't continue asking.
Even if Xiaoxiao and Chen Lei really had a relationship, they were both unmarried. So what if they had a relationship?
Xiaoxiao still had to maintain her gentle and cute image in front of her colleagues, but when she went to the washroom, her face instantly twisted.
Last night, Chen Lei drove away directly. It was fine if he didn't understand her feelings, but today, he actually sent back the lunchbox she sent over. This was undoubtedly a slap in her face.
How was this the gentle man she investigated? He was clearly a green bean that was impervious to everything. It was simply infuriating.
Xiaoxiao had hunted countless men. No matter how difficult a man was, she could easily get him. There was no reason for her to fail in front of Chen Lei.
Xiaoxiao didn't think it was her fault. She felt that she must have not discovered Chen Lei's weakness. Otherwise, she would have been able to get Chen Lei.
Xiaoxiao tidied up her appearance in front of the mirror. Looking at her delicate face without any makeup, the corners of her mouth twitched, revealing a devilish and enchanting smile.
So what if she was impervious to everything? As long as she had her eyes on a man, all of them could escape from her grasp.
Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, and her expression returned to her previous cute and adorable self. She walked out of the bathroom and returned to her office to continue working.
When I went to work in the morning, I thought about it for a while. Maybe my lunchbox was too formal and gave people a sense of oppression. Why don't I change it?
When Jiujiu was working overtime in the afternoon, she went downstairs to buy a cup of coffee and sent it to Jiujiu's office.
If the lunchbox was too formal, then the coffee would be more casual. There was no reason for Chen Lei not to accept a cup of coffee.
However, it was too monotonous to just drink coffee, so Xiaoxiao bought a piece of cake to match it.
Chen Lei had been working on the proposal recently and had basically been staying in the office. When Xiaoxiao arrived, Jiujiu was working overtime.
Because of Jiujiu's rejection in the morning, Xiao Xiao looked a little uncomfortable. She carefully placed the coffee cake on Jiujiu's desk. "Manager Chen, I specially went downstairs to buy this coffee for you."
Jiujiu thought that Xiaoxiao would understand what he meant when he sent the lunchbox downstairs to Xiaoxiao in front of everyone in the morning.
But now it seemed that Xiaoxiao had understood, but she had used another method to test him.
Jiujiu felt that it was time to let Xiaoxiao understand that he was not the gentle man in her investigation. He was a man who was cold, heartless, and uninterested in people like her.
Jiujiu's face suddenly darkened, and his eyes were like sharp swords as he stared at Xiaoxiao.
Even though Xiaoxiao had been with her father since she was young, she still couldn't bear Jiujiu's gaze and her body trembled.
Xiaoxiao's face was a little pale. Her lips moved and her voice was as soft as a mosquito's. "Manager, do you hate me?"
Xiaoxiao's face was pale and her eyes were timid. She was like a frightened kitten who didn't know whether to show her nails. She looked at Jiujiu pitifully with her big watery eyes, which made people feel sorry for her.
Jiujiu was unmoved and only looked at Xiaoxiao quietly.
Jiujiu's eyes were clear and bright, without a trace of emotion. He just looked at Xiaoxiao quietly without saying a word, waiting to see how Xiaoxiao would continue.
Xiaoxiao waited for Jiujiu to speak, but Jiujiu didn't even look at her. Xiaoxiao couldn't hold it in and spoke first. "If my behavior has caused trouble for you, I apologize. I won't continue to send you food in the future. Manager Chen, can you forgive me this time?"
Xiaoxiao's eyes were filled with tears. She looked at Jiujiu pitifully like a little kitten and was very cute.
But to Xiaoxiao's surprise, Jiujiu didn't say anything about forgiving her. Instead, he nodded as if it was a matter of course. "Since you already know, please leave my office."
Jiujiu looked at Xiaoxiao's embarrassed face and said, "Take your things with you. If I want to eat something, I'll order it myself. I don't need you to buy it for me."
Although Jiujiu didn't say it directly, his words implied that Xiaoxiao was meddling in other people's business.
Xiaoxiao's face turned green and purple. She picked up the coffee and cake in her hands and left without looking back.
Looking at Xiaoxiao's back, Jiujiu lowered his head and continued to work.
Jiujiu was busy until nine o 'clock in the evening.
Jiujiu drove home.
Chen Lei's annual salary was over a million, so he naturally had his own house.
Chen Lei's house wasn't very big. It was only about 150 square meters. Chen Lei's parents lived in the neighboring city. Occasionally, they would come over to help Chen Lei clean up the house and make some easy-to-store food like dumplings. They would put them in the freezer for Chen Lei to eat when he wanted to.
Usually, Chen Lei lived in this big house alone.
Chen Lei's house was like his personality. There were many decorations and it was very gentle.
Chen Lei was afraid of being lonely, so he raised a British shorthair called Qiuqiu.
Recently, Chen Lei had been busy working overtime and didn't have time to play with Qiuqiu. When Qiuqiu saw Jiujiu coming back, it subconsciously went to Jiujiu and asked to play with it.
Jiujiu touched Qiuqiu's soft belly. After thinking for a while, she released her little pet from the space.
Although Qiuqiu was a little confused by the cat and two dogs that suddenly appeared in the house, it still stayed on Jiujiu's lap obediently and let Jiujiu touch it.
Seeing that Qiuqiu was so obedient, Jiujiu raised the koi fish that she had stolen from the previous world in a fish tank.
However, the two koi fish had followed Jiujiu for decades in her previous life and had been raised in the space for so many years. They had already weighed over a hundred kilograms.
Jiujiu shrunk the two koi fish a lot before releasing them.
With a cat, two dogs, and two koi fish in the house, it instantly became more lively.
Jiujiu assigned living quarters to all her little pets before taking a bath and resting.
The next day, Jiujiu drove to work.
