Chapter 576: She! Candy! Is Jealous!
Chapter 576: She! Candy! Is Jealous!
Have to say, Feiyan and the others are lucky to have encountered such an understanding and considerate boss.
Even though their protective work is task-oriented, once Mo Jingchun speaks, everyone in Wild Wolf’s team knows that the higher-ups will definitely take Mo Jingchun’s opinions into account. There’s no doubt about it.
Geniuses tend to have quirky personalities, which is completely normal.
But in reality?
Mo Jingchun is really easy to get along with.
Over the past two years, through their interactions, they’ve come to realize what kind of person Mo Jingchun is.
From their perspective, Mo Jingchun has never acted as if he were superior.
Feiyan stood there, her eyes filled with gratitude.
Mo Jingchun continued walking back with Candy.
As Wild Wolf and his crew passed by Feiyan, without exception, they all patted her shoulder with a smile.
This was the greatest encouragement a comrade could give her!
Once inside the elevator, with no outsiders around, Candy no longer hesitated to speak freely.
"Brother, sister said there’s a show tomorrow and lots of delicious food, right?"
Mo Jingchun stroked his chin, his eyes narrowing into a line.
"That’s right. Tomorrow’s the annual company event. There’ll be plenty to eat and play with, nothing will be missing."
Upon hearing this, Candy’s eyes lit up.
An annual event, ah, how she loved it.
With a glance, Candy tightly hugged her brother’s arm, pleadingly saying, "Brother, Guoguo wants to join the raffle too, can I~"
This small matter, which Mo Jingchun was just about to agree to, he stopped short in time.
"Of course... not."
Kidding, with Candy’s luck-of-the-chosen-one sort of fortune, if he agrees, how will the employees still enjoy it?
Others would suspect some kind of inside job.
Otherwise, it’d end up just like last year.
Candy’s previously smiling face now froze.
He clearly was going to agree, why did he suddenly change?
"Brother~"
"No use. Whatever you want, brother will buy it for you."
"You joining the raffle would wreck the fun of the game."
Behind them, Wild Wolf and the others twitched their mouths in unison.
They thought the same thing as their boss.
No help for it, the little one’s luck is simply too over-the-top.
"Hmph ╭(╯^╰)╮"
"Then Guoguo wants milk tea tomorrow, the kind from the milk tea shop."
At this moment, they’d arrived at the top floor.
Just then, the elevator doors opened, and Mo Jingchun walked out with a big smile on his face.
Milk tea? Hehe.
Perhaps she found out that all the snack zones in the company have had their milk tea removed?
Seems like before he noticed, Candy had stolen quite a few drinks.
Hehe, now there’s none left, right?
"Brother, don’t walk so fast."
"Brother, you haven’t promised to buy milk tea for Guoguo tomorrow yet."
"Brother~"
······
"We’ll see tomorrow."
Light snowflakes were drifting in the air.
As soon as the tiny snowflakes touched the ground, they melted instantly.
Walking along the park’s path, you’d notice small white granules scattered on the ground if you looked closely.
That’s industrial coarse salt for snow melting.
At this moment, the parking lot in the park was filled with tourist buses and chartered buses from the local bus company.
Every three minutes or so, a bus would carry dozens of employees to the annual event venue, the familiar new stadium.
The steady stream of vehicles gave outsiders the impression that today, Candy Technology Park’s defenses were at their weakest.
Especially when the annual event begins, there probably wouldn’t be many people left standing guard inside the park.
For some lawbreakers, this might seem a great opportunity.
Two kilometers away, on a hotel rooftop, a young Asian woman with bangs just above her eyebrows, wearing leather pants, stowed away an astronomical telescope.
Her youthful face bore a maturity not typical of her age bracket.
And that sharp gaze, even a brief glance would make others feel threatened.
After hiding the telescope, the woman frowned and spoke to the man smoking on the bed, "Smoking is harmful to health."
"Boss, stop teasing me."
The man, in his thirties, gave a bitter chuckle, "I’m sure I won’t die from smoking."
The woman raised an eyebrow, offering no retort.
Given their identities, they must always be prepared for death.
"Come on, let’s go to a hotpot restaurant."
The woman picked up her bag and smiled faintly.
The man was stunned, "Boss, not going to try our luck with that dreaded experimental building everyone fears?"
"Today is Candy Technology’s annual event, the perfect opportunity."
"Only an idiot would go, I’m not going to throw my life away."
The man scratched his nose awkwardly, isn’t she indirectly calling me an idiot?
"Come on, let’s go to the hotpot restaurant. Think about it, if you could think of it, don’t you think Candy Technology would as well?"
"Hehe, I bet no one will even think about making a move on the Candy Technology Laboratory today."
This time, the man didn’t say a word, only put away his cigarette, and followed his boss.
Hotpot, huh? If possible, wouldn’t many people long for such a simple life?
In the afternoon, the annual event at Candy Technology was in full swing.
At one of the round tables in the front row, Candy occupied the C seat all by herself.
Others had either tea or cold mineral water in front of them, but Candy had a large thermos.
The thermos was filled to the brim with milk tea.
Taking a sip, Candy promptly tightened the lid.
Milk tea tastes best while hot, it’s less appealing when cold.
During the raffle, Candy could only look on longingly.
She really wanted to participate in the raffle too, but since she had already gotten milk tea, she couldn’t join.
Sigh, it’s tough when you can’t have both fish and bear’s paw.
Glancing at her brother, Candy pouted discontentedly.
She! Candy! Was jealous!
Not watching the show properly, but chatting and laughing with Xuanyu.
Didn’t even think to include Guoguo in the conversation?
Turning her head again towards her sister, Candy sighed deeply.
Sister, are those guys on stage really that handsome? She seemed completely captivated.
Unscrewing the thermos lid, Candy took another sip of milk tea, feeling somewhat reflective.
She alone was truly clear-headed in this world.
Suddenly, her brother’s voice startled Candy, making her shiver.
"Milk tea is sweet; try not to drink too much, or your teeth might not grow properly."
Candy puffed her cheeks, turning her head aside.
Having milk tea in hand, how could she not drink it?
While her brother resumed his conversation with Xuanyu, Candy quietly asked Zero:
"Zero, will drinking milk tea really prevent teeth from growing?"
"No."
Candy sighed in relief; she knew it, her brother was just trying to scare her.
Always bullying his sister, that stinky brother.
"But it might make your teeth grow in crooked."
In an instant, Candy’s eyes widened.
Why only tell half the story?
"I’ll just have this one cup, just a little bit."
"Oh~ then it’s not a big deal."
While singing and dancing filled the stage, Candy wasn’t very interested.
Sadly, this year’s preschool ended vacation early, so the annual event didn’t include any preschool programs.
