Chapter 456: HAPPY DAY!
HJ ENTERTAINMENT –
“Hey! Isn’t the weather very romantic today?” Jia Fei said to the receptionist with a bright smile as she entered the company.
The receptionist was used to Jia Fei’s cranky mood and indifferent greeting, she was caught off guard when she greeted her so excitedly and was even smiling brightly at her.
‘Is something going on today?’ She wondered while looking around her suspiciously.
“Erh....Yeah. It’s a great day indeed.” She said hesitantly, wondering in what way it is romantic weather today.
Since morning, the dark clouds are covering the sky, making the whole city gloomy and dark when it was supposed to be sunny and bright.
Not only that, it has been pouring outside for hours when it’s not even a rainy season and she is not sure in what way it’s romantic weather.
.....
‘It’s more like cranky, unexpected weather. Not a romantic one.’
All she can see is the rain puddles on the roads and she doesn’t even want to think about the heavy traffic that will follow in the evening when she will get off work.

After greeting the receptionist, Jia Fei went to Xu Nuan’s office to give her a cup of coffee that she bought for her.
Since she was in a happy mood today, she wanted to treat her to a good cup of coffee. Because she is also one of the major reasons that she gets to meet Yuhan and they’re dating, almost like real couples.
If Xu Nuan hadn’t brought him to the cafe, just to reject his proposal, then there would be no reason for them to meet.
__
After meeting with Yuhan and clearing the misunderstanding between them yesterday, she was in high spirits and could not be happier than this.
She was happy that it wasn’t hers only who was invested in this trial relationship and taking it seriously.
He was also feeling the same way towards her and was serious when he agreed to her proposal and it wasn’t just a hungover mistake.
Although the whole idea of trial dating was kinda impromptu and happened so suddenly without much deep thought, both of them were taking it quite seriously as if they were already officially seeing each other.
Their relationship is finally moving on in the right direction. They have been messaging each other frequently and calling for no specific reason.
What a great feeling it is to call someone without any reason, just to hear their voice. Hah! She never felt so over the clouds before.
Is this what it feels to be in a relationship? What a great feeling it is.
More than that, she has never imagined in her wild dreams that one day she will make out with a man in his office and will be caught by his secretary.
Argh! How embarrassing. Thankfully, she didn’t catch them when they were kissing and only saw them when they were just in the process of getting up from the embarrassing posture and he helped her cover her face in time, keeping her identity a secret.
Otherwise, that would have been super embarrassing and humiliating! More than that, if her identity would have been exposed, it would have been a crazy drama that she doesn’t want to face in her life anytime soon.
She would not spread any rumors about it, would she?
‘Anyway, it’s Yuhan’s headache to deal with her.’ She brushed this topic off casually, letting him deal with his secretary, and was whistling happily while walking towards Xu Nuan’s office.
“Hmm! It’s such a beautiful day!” She exclaimed happily as she pulled on the office door of Xu Nuan’s office.
” Why are you sitting in your office room and not going outside to enjoy such great weather with your boyfriend? You’re the CEO, you should go out and have fun.”
” It should be peasants like us who should be crying to work on such a beautiful day.” Jia Fei said dramatically, making Xu Nuan chuckle at her words.
However, she halted in her steps when she noticed Xu Nuan was with a company.
“Oh? Luo Luo, what are you doing here? Are you here to drop some desserts for me?” She asked like a happy child and took a seat next to Luo Dan while looking for a box of donuts or some pastries.
However, there was none. How can she come empty-handed when she comes to meet her? That’s not fair.
” Woah! No desserts? How rude Luo Luo!” Jia Fei pouted.
Luo Dan shrugged her shoulders when she noticed Jia Fei holding two cups of coffee in her hands. She was drinking from one and the other seemed to be untouched.
“This coffee....” Luo Dan frowned and pointed at the coffee in Jia Fei’s hands.
“Ah, this? I bought it for Xu Nuan. If I had known that you were also coming, I would have bought one for you as well.” Jia Fei said as she handed Xu Nuan the cup of coffee.
Xu Nuan pursed her lips when she saw the coffee cup in front of her and took a deep breath to control her temptation.
‘No, Xu Nuan. You cannot drink that. It’s not good for the baby!’ She tried to control her urge to drink the coffee and cool down her thirst for caffeine by taking out her Tumblr which had orange juice in it.
“Thanks, but I am on a diet. That’s why I am not consuming any caffeine these days.” She gave an excuse while drinking the orange juice with a heavy heart.
After the doctor announced that she is pregnant, she is trying to reduce the amount of coffee that she used to drink before as it will not be good for the baby.
More than that, she doesn’t feel as excited as before when drinking coffee because it makes her nauseous and acidic.
Not drinking coffee is the best option for now.
“Hmm? Isn’t coffee good for weight loss? Also, this is Americano. No milk or sugar. You can drink it. Zero calories!” Jia Fei said as she pushed the coffee in front of her but Xu Nuan pushed it in front of Luo Dan and said, ” Haha. It’s alright. Luo Luo can drink it. You didn’t bring another cup of coffee for her anyways.”
“I will drink my orange juice.” She said,
“Well....as you wish.” Jia Fei shrugged her shoulders and said nothing when the coffee was passed onto Luo Dan.
However, Luo Dan was looking at the cup of coffee with a frown on her face.
“What are you staring at and not drinking it? You don’t want to drink it either?” Jia Fei asked.
“You...you bought this coffee from our rival cafe? Are you serious?” Luo Dan was enraged when she saw the label on the coffee cup and couldn’t control her emotions.
Jia Fei is the partner owner of the cafe, so how could she buy the coffee from their rival cafe?
Jia Fei, who didn’t notice this earlier, was surprised when Luo Dan pointed out and looked at the cup again, ” Oh.... you’re right. Hmm....their coffee is indeed good. I wonder what coffee beans they use. We should use them too.”
Luo Dan: “...”
While Luo Dan was feeling betrayed, Jia Fei was interested in the kind of coffee beans that the rival cafe uses to make coffee.
” Stop pouting and take a sip. It’s really good.” Jia Fei urged Luo Dan and forced her to take a sip of it.
Luo Dan who was feeling annoyed was also surprised when she took a sip of it and liked it. ” Wah! It tastes different.”
” Right? I was telling you it’s good.” Jia Fei said and was glad that Luo Dan also liked it.
Xu Nuan, who was sitting there, was feeling bitter because she couldn’t get the taste of it. However, she was also happy to see Jia Fei and Luo Dan, sitting in front of her and they all were together and happy.
It was something that she hadn’t imagined a year ago. Time sure flies fast.

” Forget about everything, what are you doing here? You didn’t tell me in the morning that you’re coming here. Otherwise, we would have come together.” Jia Fei asked Luo Dan while drinking her cold coffee.
Now she was looking at her seriously, she was surprised when she noticed the clothes that Luo Dan was wearing. Unlike the dresses that she usually wears when going to the cafe, she was dressed in a more formal attire than the casual one.
She was wearing an ivory blazer and suit pants, along with a silky soft fabric, white blouse underneath. She was also wearing heels that were going well with the overall look and were making her look like the independent and successful woman that she already is.
However, why was she dressed so formally when she was coming to meet Xu Nuan and her? That’s strange.
” You....why are you dressed up so formally when you were coming here to meet us? Haha, don’t tell me you’re also going to work here.”
” That would be hilarious if that happened.” Jia Fei joked and couldn’t help but laugh just thinking about it.
Luo Dan was so happy after sending her away from the cafe. However, it will be hilarious if she decides to come to work at HJ Entertainment, to work along with her.
While Jia Fei was laughing, she noticed the solemn expressions on the faces of Luo Dan and Xu Nuan. “Why aren’t you guys laughing? It was just a joke.” She said to release the tension in the room.
Xu Nuan glanced at Luo Dan before saying to Jia Fei, ” Erm...Well, sorry to break your bubble but it’s not a joke anymore. Luo Dan has accepted my offer and decided to work for our company as the head of the PR Department.”
“WHATT??” Jia Fei’s eyes widened in shock and she turned to Luo Dan to confirm Xu Nuan’s claim, at which Luo Dan nodded with a smile.
Jia Fei: “...”
