It was rare to have a chance to rest on a workday. Shen Yin stayed comfortably in bed until noon, then called Li Zi to ask her to go to the mall for a meal after work to relax.

On the phone, Li Zi lowered her voice and stammered, “I’m sorry, Yin Yin. I have an appointment with someone tonight. I’ll definitely keep you company next time!”

Shen Yin was immediately on the alert as she sat up in bed. She pulled open the curtains and looked at the sun that was high in the sky. The sun was still working today and it must haven risen from the east as usual. She could not restrain her curiousity as she asked, “Who’s your date? Which man? Do I know him? Have you forgotten…”

The name stuck in her throat for a long time. Shen Yin decided to not to say it out loud. She did not want to ruin everyone’s mood on such a happy occasion.

Li Zi did not realize that Shen Yin was skirting an issue. She had just received a case and everyone was huddled in a small office chattering at the same time. She said distractedly, “I’m a little busy now. I’ll talk to you later. Be good. Bye.”

After hanging up the phone, Shen Yin stared at her cell phone blankly for a few seconds. Her curiosity transformed into genuine joy for her friend.

It was a wonderful thing to be able to completely forget about someone and start over.

She had tried it and was now enjoying her current life. Naturally, she hoped that her good friend could let go of the past and embrace her future.

Without Li Zi’s company, Shen Yin suddenly felt that this rare day off was meaningless. Lian Jing had gone to work early in the morning, and Shen Nian had also gone to school. Even Grandpa Lian was visiting a friend. She was the only one who had nothing to do.

Shen Yin was bored, and suddenly annoyed. She opened her chat with Lian Jing and saw that the last message was actually the picture of the beer bottle that she had taken at the crime scene. She could not help but secretly smile and send him a message. “What are you doing? Have you eaten lunch?”

Lian Jing was in a meeting with the managers. He was not satisfied with the proposals that the various departments had submitted today. The President was coldly staring down his subordinates with an hostile expression. They wished they could bury their heads under the table as Lian Jing gave an ultimatum. “If you can’t submit a suitable proposal before work ends, you can go to the finance department to get your last paycheck and retire early.”

The managers trembled and turned even paler. They felt bitter, but did not dare to refuse.

Recently, most of the President’s energy had been focused on a particular case, so the managers’ subordinates were slacking off. However, not only had their subordinates slacked off, the employees in their branch had also relaxed. Which was why they were now being reprimanded by the President. They could only keep their heads down and try to avoid angering the President further.

Zhong Xin held his breath and stood at the side, ignoring the pleading gazes of the others.

He had already reminded these department managers to speed up the process and keep an eye on their subordinates. They should have listened to him.

It was good for the President to reprimand them. The President’s relationship with Miss Shen had been progressing smoothly and he had been more amiable at work. As a result, these managers had forgotten how awe-inspiring the President could be.

Just as he was daydreaming, the phone in his hand suddenly rang. Zhong Xin’s heart skipped a beat. He subconsciously looked up at his President and saw his dark expression. He could not help but inwardly berate himself for forgetting to mute it. Then, he hurriedly lowered his head to look at the cell phone.

As soon as he saw it, Zhong Xin seemed to have found a lifeline. He quickly placed the phone in front of the President. “President Lian, your phone seems to have a message from Miss Shen.”

The managers sneered inwardly. Zhong Xin had been with President Lian for so long, but he still did not know what the President was like. He had always been a serious person and hated people interrupting his meetings. How dare Zhong Xin tell the President that there was a message on his cell phone in front of so many people? Was he out to embarrass President Lian?

Just as the managers were gloating and waiting to see Lian Jing’s anger turn on Zhong Xin, they saw their high and mighty President suddenly stop frowning and smile gently. Everyone immediately sat up in shock, unable to believe their eyes.

Lian Jing picked up his phone and saw the words “Yin Yin” on the screen. He opened the chat with a smile and saw a message from the lazy bum at home.

His well-defined fingers tapped the screen a few times before he slowly but seriously replied, “Not yet. I’m in a meeting. Do you want to come to the office for lunch?”

When Shen Yin instantly received a a reply from him, she hugged her phone happily and turned over. She replied happily, “Alright, I’ll tidy up and go look for you.”

Lian Jing replied very quickly, “Okay, I’ll wait for you. I’ll get the chauffeur to bring you over.”
