On the first day at the new company, although a few colleagues were not very friendly, Jiayi's mood was still fairly good, thanks to the surprise from Tang En'en, coupled with a sumptuous lunch, which somewhat alleviated the gloom from the pay deduction.
After work, Jiayi had planned to leave with Tang En'en, but then her phone suddenly rang.
A text message had arrived.
"After work, come back to Huo Garden for dinner."
It was still the terse, command-like message.
She could only send a WeChat message to Tang En'en, saying she had something come up and needed to leave first.
As she exited the company building, night was just falling, and a gentle breeze brushed by, dissipating the fatigue of the day.
After leaving the company, Jiayi walked for about a kilometer when, just as usual, George was waiting for her in the car.
Inside the car window, there was already a dark, tall figure, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
Jiayi climbed into the car.
