"Mr. Shen, Miss Lu is looking for you."
Shen Yanchen lifted his head from the pile of docunts, "Let her in."
Knowing that Gu Qimiao wouldn't be back for dinner that night, he stayed at the company to work overti.
Lu Qianwen pushed the door open and walked in, first surveying his office before sitting opposite him, "I knew you'd definitely be working overti at the company."
"What's the matter?"
"Tomorrow is my birthday. You definitely don't rember, so I'm here to tell you. I hope you can co tomorrow night."
"Buzz——Buzz——" The phone on the desk vibrated.
Both of their gazes turned to it at the sa ti. The caller ID displayed: Miaomiao.
He picked up the call, his voice still cold, but his brow clearly relaxed, "What's up?"
"Brother Yan Chen... are you coming back tonight?"
"Yes."
"The bathroom light is broken..."
Her tone was very cautious, as if afraid he would scold her.
Feeling uneasy, he said, "Wait for to fix it when I get back. Don't touch it."
"...Okay."
He hung up the call, and the incredulous expression on Lu Qianwen's face opposite him asked: "You two... live together?"
He didn't answer that question. While tidying the files on his desk, he said, "I'm not free tomorrow night. I'll send soone with a gift."
"Do you think I'm inviting you just for the gift?"
He stood up, grabbed his coat from the chair back, "I'm off work. You should go ho."
Lu Qianwen stood up as well, smiling self-deprecatingly, "Gu Qimiao is so capable, huh? One phone call, and she can make you leave. I invite you in person once a year for my birthday, and you don't even give face."
Shen Yanchen stopped and looked at her, "Don't compare her with you."
Lu Qianwen then smiled, confidently saying, "You'll co."
...
Back ho, as soon as he opened the door, he saw her coming to et him; that feeling was really nice.
"You're back."
"Yes."
Then she just stood there with a light smile, waiting for him to change his shoes. Then, like a little tag-along, she followed him to the bathroom.
He turned on his phone flashlight to inspect and told her, standing dumbfounded to the side, "Go get a small stool."
"Okay!"
He stood on the stool, and she helped him hold it steady. He handed the phone to her, "Shine the light for ."
Watching him dismantle the lightbox, he twisted a couple of tis and removed the broken bulb.
Gu Qimiao hurriedly and sensibly handed him the new bulb she had bought. He carefully aligned it and easily installed it.
He stepped down from the stool and pressed the switch. The room lit up instantly, and he saw her looking up at the light with a smile on her face.
He washed his hands and casually asked, "Did you find the shop?"
She was holding the stool, paused, then replied, "Yes, it's found, right at the small plaza."
Good, now she wouldn't have to go out with Gu Moming tomorrow or the day after.
He wiped his hands and quietly took the stool from her hands, single-handedly twisting it outside while she followed. The sound of "ding——ding——" ca from the living room.
It was her phone ringing.
Gu Qimiao ran over, puzzled as she answered, "Hello?"
Shen Yanchen put down the stool and remained standing there, listening. He had a good idea who was calling.
Sure enough, he heard Gu Qimiao exclaim: "Sister Qianwen?! What's up?"
"Birthday? Sure... yes, I'll definitely co!"
Shen Yanchen raised an eyebrow slightly; Lu Qianwen's thods were more than he had imagined.
