"Isn’t that obvious? I, Ding Jinshi, am loved by everyone! I get along well with my colleagues, and even the leaders are quite fond of ! Of course, what everyone’s most interested in is the matter between you and !" Ding Jinshi nodded, his expression not hiding anything. "Everyone knows I’m getting engaged, knows I’m about to be engaged to you, the big boss Ding. Many people are asking how we ended up together."
"What did you tell them?" Ding Long asked with a bit of curiosity.
"I can’t exactly tell them that we’re just good friends and this engagent party is just a show for another man, right? So I told them that we’ve known each other since we were little, then sohow the term ’childhood sweethearts’ ca up." Ding Jinshi put down his chopsticks and swallowed the porridge in one go before laughing heartily, "You wouldn’t believe it, but just because of the term ’childhood sweethearts’, they spun a touching love story about us. I was almost moved to tears by it myself, talking about how deep our feelings are, that ti and distance are not the enemies of our love. We’ve crossed ti and space to fall in love, I’m studying abroad while you’re waiting longingly here."
Ding Long didn’t respond, but he did think that Ding Jinshi’s colleagues got one thing right: he was indeed waiting longingly in the country, but she didn’t know it.
"I have to go try on dresses this afternoon, and the makeup artist is also from abroad. I also need to check the arrangents for the venue on the day of the engagent party."
Ding Jinshi bit his lip and nodded, sighed after a while, "I feel like soon I’ll be burdened with a heavy debt. It’s just an act, why does it have to be so grand?"
"The grander it is, the more real and convincing it becos," Ding Long grinned, "With your salary, you should have no trouble paying it off, right? My company might even go bankrupt one day; you’ve got a secure job."
"Pfft~" Ding Jinshi rolled his eyes.
"Besides, isn’t it nice to dress up and have a well-organized engagent party? Maybe Lan Li will show up that day, and I can back out, giving you a ready-made engagent party, isn’t that great? As soon as Lan Li appears, you can get engaged right away. That way, you can hold onto him tightly," Ding Long laughed. "By the way, isn’t Chen Shan also coming this afternoon?"
Ding Jinshi nodded, "I asked her to help with opinions on the dress and makeup."
Ding Long tugged at the corner of his mouth, inadvertently showing a hint of a smile in his eyes, as if he was very pleased with Chen Shan coming along in the afternoon, after all, she’s his ally, right?
It had been nearly ten days since Ding Jinshi last saw Chen Shan. She arrived after Ding Long and Ding Jinshi, and as soon as she walked in, Chen Shan looked Ding Jinshi up and down.
"Haven’t seen you in a few days, your complexion looks even better, like you’ve been marinating in honey," Chen Shan teased. "But have you put on weight?"
If looks could kill, Ding Jinshi would definitely slice Chen Shan into pieces, not just once.
"Can’t you say sothing nice?" Ding Jinshi asked.
"I only tell the truth." Chen Shan shook her finger, "You really have put on a bit of weight."
Ding Jinshi snorted and rubbed her nose, but Chen Shan was right. She had gained three pounds since coming back to the country.
But, this was all thanks to Ding Long.
Knowing she was anemic, he made sure she ate gelatin every day. Knowing she was used to Western food and they were both working at noon, he had his assistant deliver balanced nutritional lunches to her every day. At ho in the evening, he cooked for her himself.
