Chapter 178: A Dog in His Past Life

The sky gradually darkened and night fell.

Song Qingyou’s work was almost done when she realized Zhuang Wei hadn’t left yet.

Just as she looked up, their eyes met.

Zhuang Wei opened her mouth as if she wanted to speak.

Before she could say anything, there was a knock on the door.

The office door was open, and Song Qingyou turned to look.

Yu Muhuai smiled. “May I come in?”

“Of course you can.” Zhuang Wei answered first.

“Sorry to bother you.”

Yu Muhuai walked in with a few thermal lunch boxes.

“These are the dishes that my fans sent me. I can’t finish so much by myself. They put them down and ran away…”

“I see that you haven’t gone downstairs yet. You probably haven’t had dinner yet. Do you want to eat together?”

There was no rule in the office that forbade people from eating here.

After all, when she was too busy with work, Shen Fei would eat while working.

Song Qingyou nodded.’1 Sure.”

Yu Muhuai moved Lin Hui’s chair over and set up a few lunch boxes.

His side profile was like a painting under the light, and his blue-gray hair seemed to glow with starlight.

Zhuang Wei had been staring at him since he came in.

She finally couldn’t hold it in anymore. She walked up to Yu Muhuai with a notebook and tried to push Song Qingyou’s chair away.

“Yu Muhuai, I’m your fan. Can I have your autograph?”

Yu Muhuai raised his eyebrows slightly. “I’m sorry. My hands are oily. It’s not convenient.”

“If it s possible, can you not disturb Qingyou and I having dinner?”

“Yes, yes, of course.”

Even though it was after work, their every move was still under the camera.

Zhuang Wei lowered her eyes slightly and restrained the anger in her eyes.

Then, she put down the notebook and left.

Ln the office, the area where the two of them were eating was lit up, and the surroundings were a little dark.

As Yu Muhuai ate, he suddenly laughed.

“We are having a candlelight dinner now.”

“Is that so?” Song Qingyou blinked. “I think this is better than a candlelight dinner.”

“What do you mean?11

“Don’t you think a candlelight dinner is stupid? Before the invention of the electric light, everyone ate like that every day. It’s very inconvenient for them to eat like that now. Moreover, I just saw on the news that a candlelight dinner caused a fire.”

Yu Muhuai laughed heartily.

“This is the first time I’ve heard someone say that. But you’re too straightforward. You’ll offend a lot of people.”

Song Qingyou admitted her mistake. “That’s my personal opinion. I’m narrow-minded.”

Her thinking was more rational, so it was not surprising that she would think this way.

Yu Muhuai chuckled. “It seems that even if there’s no candlelight tonight, it’s still a candlelight dinner.”

Just as Song Qingyou was about to nod and thank him, Chen Lan’s voice came from outside.

“Hey, Zhizhi, don’t be anxious. We’re almost there. Why did you unzip your carrier and run out?”

Jiang Zhihan, who was sitting in the cat carrier, couldn’t wait to run out when he heard the words candlelight dinner’.

According to Chen Lan, there were only Song Qingyou and Yu Muhuai in the secretary’s office.

If it really was a candlelight dinner, then it must have been Yu Muhuai’s doing!

How dare he do such fancy things in the company?

The cat ran into the office and looked at the two people sitting together. He was a little confused.

Where was the candlelight dinner? Where was the candlelight?

Song Qingyou couldn’t help but pick up the cat when she saw his blank expression.

“Is Zhizhi looking for me?”

“Of course he’s looking for you.” Chen Lan quickly followed him. “He came out of the cat carrier at rhe door. He must have smelled you!”

Song Qingyou’s lips curved. “Then do 1 have a cat or a dog?’1

J lang Zhihan” s face was cold as he thought, Of course it’s a cat!’

“Maybe he was a dog in his previous life.”

Then, she glanced at the lunch box on the table. “Why are you two eating together? Where are the others?’1

Chen Lan was a little worried that Song Qingyou and Yu Muhuai were dating in private.

Yu Muhuai’s popularity was rising day by day and he would definitely make it into the top loo this year.

Song Qingyou was even more so.

However, if the two of them fell in love, all their previous efforts would be in vain!

“Everyone else went to dinner with people from the same department. We re all people who have fallen from grace and have to work overtime.”

Chen Lan heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that they were only together because they were working overtime.

“Then I’ll wait for you here.’1 Chen Lan said, “The production team won’t let you hitch a ride with me. I’ll bring Zhizhi over to meet you. There shouldn’t be a problem, right?”

The rules for this episode were rhe same as the previous episode. One had to settle their own food, accommodation, and transportation.

Fortunately, the Jiangyuan Corporation’s employees had always been treated well. They all lived in the staff dormitory, and it was even a single room.

Song Qingyou didn’t think much about what Chen Lan said and only asked Zhizhi what he had done today from time to time.

Yu Muhuai rarely spoke. His dark eyes seemed to be covered in a layer of mist.

He stared at the cat in Song Qingyou’s arms for a while, his eyes dark and cold.

The cat seemed to be unaware of the danger and even met Yu Muhuai’s gaze.

Jiang Zhihan tentatively raised his paw and hugged SongQingyou’s arm. As expected, the man’s face darkened.

Song Qingyou put down her chopsticks. “I’m full. You brought the food, so let me wash the lunch box. I ll send it to you tomorrow.”

“Alright.” Yu Muhuai smiled.

The speed at which he changed his expression was comparable to a Sichuan opera performer.

After dinner, Yu Muhuai invited Song Qingyou to leave with him.

The latter declined politely. “Sister Lan and I are going to take a walk nearby and walk the cat.”

Only dogs need to be walked! Jiang Zhihan r aised his hand to his forehead.

He thought that Yu Muhuai would shamelessly follow her, but he was actually quite perceptive and left after being rejected.

Two people and a cat went downstairs. Jiang Xuyan, who was guarding the door, waved at them.

“You have to work overtime on the first day. Qingyou, do you have a lot of work?”

Jiang Zhihan finally realized what was going on. Song Qingyou had to work overtime on her first day at the company?

Did someone bully her on purpose?

The more Jiang Zhihan thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. He completely ignored Song Qingyou’s personality and her strong martial strength.

“It’s alright.” Song Qingyou said.

“Yingnan and the others left after work… Eh, it seems that Muhuai is still inside. It seems that he has more work than you!”

“Is that so?”

Song Qingyou subconsciously looked back upstairs.

However, the floor was too high and she couldn’t see where Yu Muhuai was.

After both parties bid farewell, Chen Lan waited until there were no more cameras before muttering, “Yu Muhuai just asked you to go with him. I didn’t expect him to not finish his work!”

“But don’t interact with him in front of the camera in the future. Just having a meal alone is enough.”

Tin not interested in gossip.” Song Qingyou nodded.

“I’m afraid that they’ll take the initiative to come to you–”

Chen Lan always felt that Yu Muhuai treated Song Qingyou differently.

But thinking back, the other party didn’t seem to have done anything special.

Chen Lan thought that she was overthinking and did not say anything.

Song Qingyou walked her to the parking lot and put Zhizhi into the cat carrier.

“Sister Lan, hurry up and take Zhizhi away. If I carry him any longer, I won’t be able to bear it.”

“Isn’t it just a cat?” Chen Lan, who did not keep pets, was extremely puzzled.

“That’s also my beloved cat.”

Song Qingyou held her cat’s face, her forehead and nose pressed against it.

Jiang Zhihan looked around uncomfortably, but he didn’t look at Song Qingyou.

Chen Lan opened the car door. ’’Don’t worry. I’ll take care of Zhizhi like an ancestor!”

That night, Fang Yan received two messages:

[ It is forbidden to eat in the office from now on. I

[ Even the new interns in our company have to work overtime? I
