Problematic Sister Fell In Love With Me

Chapter 408: Chapter 409 I don’t have a boyfriend

Most people who worked in the office all day were like this. A small space in the company was their whole world. How many things could happen in this little world? As their bodies moved less, their minds became more active. People become extremely sensitive about the things around them. Everyone would compare with each other, and no one wanted to be the last person in this small world.

If one’s car was better than others’, it would cause other people to be jealous. If one’s house was bigger than others’, it would also cause other people to be jealous. So if one’s girlfriend was more beautiful than others, do you think they would not be jealous? It was not that everyone was like this, but most people definitely had this kind of mindset.

This was another inherent flaw of humans – They couldn’t bear to see people better than themselves.

I slightly sympathized with those who didn’t have a girlfriend in the general operation team. If they wanted to chase Ziyuan, the resistance was not small… But the person who deserved the most sympathy seemed to be me because I was the one who was going to pay the final bill tonight…

Counting the heads, twenty-eight people came to the party. The private room definitely could not fit so many people, so we asked for two tables in the dining hall.

Just as I was about to take a seat, Brother Wei pushed me aside and pulled a chair for Mo Fei like an attentive eunuch. “Ms. Mo, you can sit here, hehe.” He said with a sycophantic smile.

Only then did I find out that Mo Fei had been standing silently behind me. It seemed that she was waiting for me to sit down, and then she would sit next to me. Brother Wei was a discerning guy. He had already seen through what Mo Fei was thinking.

Everyone was watching, so Mo Fei couldn’t say anything. Her brows twitched slightly, but she still sat down emotionlessly, maintaining her usual coldness. Seeing her sit down, Brother Wei turned his head and winked at Liusu. Liusu blushed, but she still raised her hand and gave him a thumbs up to praise him for doing a good job while feeling slightly embarrassed.

But in the next moment, Brother Wei’s face became stiff. When he was about to sit next to Mo Fei, Mo Fei placed her bag on the next seat. Clearly, Mo Fei knew what Brother Wei wanted to do. He could only give me a wry smile, then turned to Liusu and shrugged his shoulders, showing that he couldn’t do anything now. After that, he walked away and said, “Qin Lan, where are you sitting? Let’s sit next to each other.”

Qin Lan had seen the whole thing. Knowing that Brother Wei had just lost his opportunity to sit with Mo Fei, she responded with a gloating smile, “Who wants to sit with you? Wan’er, let’s sit next to each other.”

“Okay, Song Jia, you can sit with us as well.”

Strictly speaking, Song Jia, the little secretary of Mo Fei, did not belong to the general operation team. It was just that she had a close relationship with some of us. It was the first time for her to participate in the general operation team’s gathering, so she was a little bit nervous. Hearing what Yao Wan’er said, she, who sat down on the right side of Mo Fei out of her occupational habits, patted the seat on the other side and said, “Come, sit here.”

All the men in the office wanted to sit next to Mo Fei, but none of them dared to do it. The other table was already taken by the colleagues who came with their family members, so the rest of the people rushed to sit to the right of Mo Fei, leaving the seat on the left side of Mo Fei empty.

“Why are you still standing? Sit down,” Mo Fei said to me and revealed a rare smile in front of everyone, “Today’s party is to welcome Assistant Xue to join the Fengchang Group and join our investment department. Everyone, don’t be nervous just because I am here. I am a member of the investment department just like you. Outside of work, there are no superiors and subordinates. So relax.”

“Yeah, you probably don’t know Ms. Mo. She is actually not a cold person in private. She is not so difficult to get along with. Sometimes, she is even a little childish.” Liusu said while walking past me and sitting next to Mo Fei. Although she said casually, why did I feel like her words had a hidden meaning?

“I’m a little childish?” Seeing Liusu sitting next to her, Mo Fei’s eyebrows twitched unnoticeably. She smiled and asked, “Really?”

“Yes, and it is very obvious.” Liusu was clearly mocking Mo Fei for lying to me in the past.

Both of them were giving each other a beautiful smile, but everyone could sense the smell of gunpowder in their tones and the sparks in their gazes…

It was just a seat, did they really need to do this? I smiled bitterly. These two women regarded each other as allies sometimes, but enemies other times; their relationship was so complicated that it made me confused…

“Chu Nan, Since Grandma Cheng has already sat down, why are you still standing? Everyone knows that the seat next to her only belongs to you,” Old Black jokingly said, “What? Are you feeling embarrassed to sit next to her?”

Harmless teasing was always a good method to liven up the atmosphere. As Old Black’s voice fell, everyone burst out laughing and more and more people started to tease me. The relationship between me and Liusu had not been made public, so everyone only knew that we were close.

Although they were teasing me, many of them had good intentions and wanted to push us even closer. Even the colleagues and their family members at the other table also cheered loudly. Some people wanted me to take the initiative, and other people wanted me to man up and confess to Liusu here right away. Brother Wei even took the lead in blowing a whistle.

This kind of teasing was actually very common and harmless, but I couldn’t smile at all. Because with Liusu’s shy personality, even if she was happy, she would not accept my confession in front of so many people. She might even run away from here. Moreover, there were two more people who didn’t find it funny at all, and they were Mo Fei and Chu Yuan…

In the end, Liusu couldn’t bear the embarrassment and pulled Chu Yuan to sit next to her. As if she wanted to clear something, she said to everyone, “Get lost, didn’t you see how pretty his little sister is? He has a very high standard, you think he would be interested in me?” Liusu was obviously lying because when she said those words, she didn’t even dare to look at me. But Mo Fei and Chu Yuan were obviously satisfied by her response.

.

In the end, I did not sit next to Mo Fei, nor Liusu. I did not even sit next to Chu Yuan.

The person sitting on my left side was Ziyuan, and the person sitting on my right side was Dongfang…

Ziyuan was pushed to sit next to me by Dong Xiaoye, and she sat on the other side of her. I guessed that she probably wanted to collect some information from my conversation with Ziyuan, although I didn’t know what she wanted to do with this information.

While waiting for the food to be served, everyone began to chatter purposefully. Of course, the main topic was Ziyuan. However, everyone was interested in knowing more about Ziyuan, but Ziyuan was not interested in telling people about herself.

She only answered when someone asked something, and she would always change the topic to other people after answering the questions. Her answers were always concise and airtight. She answered all the questions asked by others, but she did not reveal the slightest information that other people wanted to know.

When all the dishes were served, everyone only knew that due to her father’s work, she went to the USA five years ago, and after graduating from Harvard University in Boston and getting an MBA degree, she chose to return to Bei Tian city… But everyone already knew about this the first day she came to the company.

Ziyuan was still the same as when she was a child. If she didn’t want to say something, no matter how people asked her, she would not reveal anything.

I thought that everyone would eventually give up asking Ziyuan questions because they could not get anything useful from Ziyuan, but I didn’t expect that some men just would not give up.

“Miss Xue, didn’t your boyfriend come back with you?” Instead of asking the question directly, Gong Fanlin chose an indirect way to get the information he wanted.

I couldn’t help but also pay attention to what Ziyuan was going to say. I didn’t know if I was thinking too much, I felt that Liusu and Chu Yuan were also very interested in this question.

Ziyuan smiled faintly, “I don’t have a boyfriend.” Generally, girls tended to be shy when they were asked this question, but Ziyuan who was usually shy answered this question indifferently.

Was I thinking too much again? I breathed a sigh of relief but felt Chu Yuan, Liusu, Mo Fei all became very anxious…
