Just as Xia Shangzhou had expected, Lin Jiayi had already woken up. She was seated at her desk with a deep frown on her face.
Back when he first started his internship with Lin Jiayi, he was really afraid of her. Every time he saw her, he would want to run away. But now, Xia Shangzhou was able to calmly place a cup of coffee in front of Lin Jiayi and say, "Boss Lin, there's a video conference in twenty minutes. You can go and touch up your makeup now. I've already prepared the documents for the conference, and they're all here …"
Lin Jiayi picked up the cup of coffee and took a sip. It was her favorite flavor. She flipped open the documents that Xia Shangzhou had prepared, and it was clear and concise. It was her favorite style.
The fury in her eyes dissipated in an instant. "Aren't you on your annual leave?"
"Ah … My younger sister just got married, and my parents kept urging me to get married. I couldn't take it anymore, so I came back to work …" Xia Shangzhou hid the fact that he was planning to go on a vacation, but before he could do so, he was called back to Beijing.
Lin Jiayi replied with an "Oh" as she drank another half a cup of coffee before heading to the bathroom to touch up her makeup.
Xia Shangzhou backed out of Lin Jiayi's office to deal with the client meeting after the video conference.
At 3.30 pm, Lin Jiayi's conference was over, and she had to meet the client. Xia Shangzhou had already prepared a car in advance, and he even left a pair of flats in the car so that Lin Jiayi could return to the car after meeting the client. It would make her feet more comfortable in high heels.
Since Xia Shangzhou had returned, it went without saying that he would be accompanying Lin Jiayi to meet with the client. Before leaving the office, Xia Shangzhou took a look at the temperature of the night and noted that it was a little cold. So, he headed over to Lin Jiayi's closet and took out a down jacket and a blanket, as well as a few heaters and water bottles. After which, Xia Shangzhou returned to his desk. While he was grabbing his phone and wallet, he didn't forget to open the drawer and grab a box of stomach medicine and hangover medicine.
Lin Jiayi was afraid of the cold, but she wanted to maintain her poise instead of warmth. She would often suffer from excruciating pain during those few days of the month, but she didn't learn from it.
Her stomach wasn't very good, and she always liked to eat spicy food. Sometimes, she would suddenly have a stomachache, and then the stomach medicine would become a regular item in his desk drawer.
As for the hangover medicine … As long as Lin Jiayi was with him, he wouldn't allow her to drink alcohol. Even if she was forced to drink at a social event, the culprit would be him. As such, he usually prepared the hangover medicine for himself. However, today was different. It was the anniversary of Qin Ting's death, so there was no doubt that Lin Jiayi would be drinking. Thus, he prepared some hangover medicine in advance so that she wouldn't suffer from a terrible hangover the next day.
Xia Shangzhou had prepared everything he needed, so no matter how hot-tempered Lin Jiayi was, she still managed to tame herself.
It was almost seven o 'clock in the evening by the time he finished meeting the clients.
Lin Jiayi didn't have any social engagements today, or to be more precise, she wouldn't have any social engagements on this day every year.
Xia Shangzhou knew that Lin Jiayi would go for a drink after parting ways with him, so he took the initiative to suggest, "Boss Lin, since you don't have much on today, why don't you head to WIKS? It's a new bar opened by Liang Jiusi, and I heard that it's quite a good bar …"
With everything under Xia Shangzhou's control, Lin Jiayi nodded her head and said, "Alright."
It was still early, so there weren't many people at WIKS.
Liang Jiusi wasn't around either, but the waiter recognized Xia Shangzhou and Lin Jiayi, so he arranged the best and most secluded seats for them.
