Chapter 22.1: Only Visible to: Shi Yan.

No one present questioned what she had said.

After all, since she started working at "Finance Weekly", many of her colleagues saw that apart from work, some CEOs and financial company executives would unabashedly greet her nicely.

There was once where someone brought a rose to the company for her every day for two months straight. From that, one could tell that their relationship was beyond just work.

After the news of her breakup spread, it was as if some male colleagues in the company had been waiting for this opportunity to appear.

Xu Yuling had also witnessed all these things before, so she couldn't say anything back at Zheng Shuyi. Her face turned from pale to blue, then blue to pale.Findd new stories at novelhall.com

There were four or five people around, and although they all tried to avoid eye contact with Xu Yuling, all of them were listening and yet no one came out to stop the two.

The atmosphere became extremely stiff, and it seemed that even the air felt embarrassing for Xu Yuling.

Until a crack broke the silence.

Qin Shiyue held the piece of chocolate in her hand and looked at Xu Yuling with somewhat of a smile, "Would you like some chocolate to calm your anger? It's really sweet."

Xu Yuling's cold eyes immediately turned toward her. Under her long eyelashes, she stared at her with such deadly-looking eyes that it seemed like they were about to fall off the next second.

Suddenly, Tang Yi walked out of her office and looked toward her.

She, who had just been bothered by Xu Yuling for a while, was also angry. She said loudly, "What are you all doing? The meeting is about to start!"

Everyone in the crowd slowly left. Zheng Shuyi was the first two to go out, creating a nice rhythm with her high heels. Tap, tap tap. Along with her footsteps, Xu Yuling could feel the nerves in her temples jumping.

The regular meeting on Monday was mainly used to make work arrangements and reports. The keynote speaker was the editor-in-chief for each department.

In this meeting room, Tang Yi had an impassive expression, Xu Yuling had a hostile expression, and Zheng Shuyi had a sullen expression, making the mood of the meeting stiffer than ever.

The meeting seemed as if it was a year-long, and no one dared to joke around or chat.

After the meeting, everyone quickly packed their laptops and left.

Xu Yuling was the last one to come out. As soon as she looked up, she saw Zheng Shuyi's back. She stopped walking and tried to calm down her uncontrollable anger.

At this moment, two people who were good friends with her finally came up to comfort her.

"Sigh, don't care about her. You know that Tang Yi likes her more. Let's just do our job correctly, and that'll be enough."

"Yeah yeah, why bother to be so angry? Being angry will only be bad for your own health."

"Just think of it as because she just broke up and is in a bad mood. Don't fuss about it.

Xu Yuling was breathing heavily. She glanced at Zheng Shuyi's back and suddenly thought of something as she chuckled.

"So pretty yet still got dumped by your boyfriend."

The afternoon passed by in a flash. With about ten minutes left until work is over, the atmosphere in the office finally relaxed a little.

After writing drafts for a whole day, Zheng Shuyi raised her head and rubbed her neck. She looked toward the sunset outside of the window and stood up to stretch.

When she sat down again, instead of looking at her laptop, she picked up her phone and opened the conversation with Shi Yan.

Around the same time, her colleagues around her started to move around. Zheng Shuyi rested her face on her hand as she stared at the screen, not knowing what to type.

After thinking for a long time, in the end, she just sent a few meaningless stickers.

Zheng Shuyi:

Zheng Shuyi:

Zheng Shuyi:

Then, she waited for her phone to vibrate.

She looked up and saw Shi Yan's glare. She trembled a bit then immediately shut her mouth.

She didn't do anything this time and didn't know why her uncle was angry again.

"Are you done talking?" asked Shi Yan.

"Yyes"

Zheng Shuyi's overtime work lasted until the moon was on top of the branches. She didn't realize when the sky turned dark and even forgot to eat dinner.

She rubbed her eyebrows, and when she was about to turn off her computer, she looked around. There were still many of her colleagues who hadn't left yet.

Including Xu Yuling.

At today's meeting, although the featured article was assigned to Zheng Shuyi, Xu Yuling still had to submit her draft. So no matter how unsatisfied she was, she still had to finish editing her draft.

Zheng Shuyi drank the water in her cup and took out her phone to call a taxi.

The software was loading, and when the page popped up, Zheng Shuyi's expression froze.

"There are currently 184 people in line. Please wait 90 minutes."

Then she looked up at the big wall clock. The hour hand was pointing toward ten already.

There were many electronic businesses in this area; therefore, ten to twelve o'clock has become the new rush hour.

Fine, Zheng Shuyi thought, I guess I'll have to live here tonight.

When she withdrew her hand that was about to turn off her laptop and was about to continue writing her draft, she thought about something. Then she took a screenshot of the page that just popped up and sent it to her Moments.

Only visible to: Shi Yan.1I forgot if I specified this earlier, but on WeChat, you can choose to allow only certain friends to see specific posts.

Caption: Yes, I'm okay. Can someone please bring a bed to work?

The sound of the clock ticking sounded very clear in the office.

Zheng Shuyi checked her phone several times, but there were no new notifications from her Moments. Nothing in her chat box either.

She laid down on the desk. After a while, she turned her face to the other side, grabbed her phone, and deleted the post from her Moments.

Shi Yan, you're so selfish.

The heater in the office was fully turned on. Zheng Shuyi laid on her table while waiting for the taxi. Someone kindly placed a jacket on her, making her feel even more sleepy. Soon, she fell asleep.

After a while, a sudden ring finally woke her up.

Zheng Shuyi picked up her phone in a daze. She glanced at the screen and answered the call.

"Hello mister, are you here yet?"

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.

Then.

"It's me."

The voice was cold and didn't sound so polite either. Zheng Shuyi slowly raised her head and looked at the screen.

Caller: Shi Yan.

Zheng Shuyi was still a little confused, "You"

"Come down."
