Chapter 5: Ex-boyfriend VS rumored boyfriend 2
Shen Chenxi admitted that she was indeed wrong, but she did not mean it.
"It's just a business suit, I'll just wear it tomorrow!"
"Why, are you very unconvinced?" Mo Kairui glared at her.
"Yes! Don't you think it's ungentlemanly of Sister Li to treat a newcomer like this?"
"Oh! Manners! When you get beaten to a pulp in the workplace, you won't mention manners to me anymore." Mo Kairui's face became even gloomier. "Shen Chenxi, if you want to get the internship certificate smoothly, do your job well and don't make trouble again." After leaving this warning, Mo Kairui strode away.
His back view is still as handsome as ever, but why does it look so glaring and annoying in her eyes?
On the way back to the office, Shen Chenxi ran into Qin Muyang in the corridor.
Yesterday on the school rooftop, Shen Chenxi heard Mo Kairui say that Qin Muyang was also interning here, so she was not surprised. But Qin Muyang was very calm to see her here, as if he had known she would come.
"Chenxi!" He probably saw her embarrassing scene in the morning! He smiled at her very kindly, "Welcome to join us!"
Although it was awkward to intern in the same company as her ex-boyfriend, at least someone welcomed her.
Shen Chenxi's depressed mood brightened up a little, she raised the corners of her mouth and replied: "Thank you, I will!"
All morning, Shen Chenxi dragged his injured leg around the office.
Her job title was "front desk assistant" to put it nicely, but in fact she just ran errands for her colleagues. Fortunately, the cleaning lady was kind and didn't assign her any work because she sprained her ankle, otherwise she would have ended up in a worse situation!
"Shen Chenxi, make me a cup of coffee."
Is this Sister Li deliberately ordering her around? Copying documents, answering calls, receiving parcels... She is busy enough, and she is asked to do just that, even though the tea room is closest to the HR office.
Although she was a little reluctant, she still took the cup and went to the tea room. When you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head!
Just after I made coffee for Sister Li, a pile of documents was stuffed into her arms: "Get it sorted before twelve o'clock. You are not allowed to leave work if you are not done."
Shen Chenxi's legs felt weak. It was already half past eleven. How could he organize such a thick document within half an hour?
Old witch, you think she is a machine!
"Um... Supervisor, my stomach is not very good. I will have stomachache if I don't eat on time." Shen Chenxi tried to awaken Sister Li's sympathy.
"Then hurry up, finish cleaning before twelve o'clock, and go to the cafeteria to feed your fragile stomach."
What an old-fashioned person!
Shen Chenxi cursed inwardly and returned to his workstation resignedly, holding the documents.
By the time she had sorted out the documents, everyone in the office had gone to the cafeteria to eat. The dense text made her feel dizzy and nauseous, and her eyes were tired and she had no appetite at all.
There was still some time, so she decided not to go to the cafeteria. When she came, she saw a small garden downstairs of the company, so she decided to go there and have a rest!
Shen Chenxi took small steps and came to the small garden downstairs of the company. She sat down in the gazebo. Thinking about the difficulties she had suffered in the morning, she felt very unhappy.
What sins must she have committed in her previous life that she had to meet Sister Li, who was even more cruel than "Nun Miejue". She was "played a trick" by her on her first day at work. She could imagine how difficult her life at Shengtong would be in the future.
What made her even more sad was Mo Kairui's attitude.
From the moment she entered the company, he never looked at her straight in the eye, and the occasional glances he gave her were warning and displeased. She actually just wanted to hear a word of encouragement from him, but there was nothing. He was indifferent when he saw her being bullied.
Thinking of this, Shen Chenxi felt even worse.
"Chenxi!" When Shen Chenxi was feeling sad, Qin Muyang walked towards her. His tall shadow cast on the ground, bringing her a cool feeling.
Shen Chenxi felt a little disappointed.
Haha...not Mo Kairui.
Qin Muyang sat down next to her. Instead of handing her a handkerchief to wipe her tears, he gave her a diamond candy. The plastic ring holder was inlaid with a red candy in the shape of a diamond.
Strawberry flavor! Unexpectedly, after so long, Qin Muyang still remembered her favorite flavor.
Shen Chenxi opened the pink package of the diamond candy and put it on her middle finger. Looking at the candy sparkling in the sun, she was slightly dazed.
Qin Muyang smiled faintly: "So... you still remember that you must wear diamond candy on your finger when eating it."
"Yes! But why would you..."
"You carry diamond candy with you?" Qin Muyang restrained his smile, "I'm used to it. When I'm unhappy, I'll eat one."
"Ah?" Shen Chenxi was shocked.
She remembered that before they broke up, Qin Muyang never ate sweets. Moreover, he always looked indifferent, never showing any happy or sad emotions. Even when they broke up, he was calm and laughed it off.
Is it possible for a person like him to use candy to relieve his mood?
"Oh! You didn't expect that!" Qin Muyang laughed at himself, paused, and changed the subject, "You know what? When I first came here, Sister Li punished me to clean the toilet!"
"Huh? Why?" Shen Chenxi, who was immersed in sadness just now, suddenly became interested.
"Because during the dinner, I saw leeks stuck in Sister Li's teeth, and then I solemnly reminded her in front of all my colleagues."
"Puchi!" He was indeed the honest boy she knew, who "hurt people" without shedding blood.
"Actually, you can remind her in a more tactful way, 'Sister Li, your lipstick has fallen off, do you want to go to the bathroom to fix it?', haha!" Shen Chenxi laughed so hard that tears came out.
"You finally smiled!"
Shen Chenxi was stunned. Was he deliberately using his own embarrassing moments to make her happy?
"Ahem... Qin Muyang, thank you!" Although they had broken up long ago, she still felt a lot better because of his words of "help in time of need".
I am sorry for you, Chenxi! Qin Muyang replied silently in his heart.
At the end of the corridor, Mo Kairui, who witnessed this scene, felt a dull pain in his heart.
That day, after the unhappy breakup on the rooftop, he stayed up late in his dorm to write computer programs for two days. In order to get her an internship opportunity, he reached an agreement with his supervisor to write additional computer programs for the company in addition to his internship and work.
Qin Muyang was there at the time. Qin Muyang poured cold water on him: "Shen Chenxi won't accept it because she won't like this job at all."
Sure enough, he received a call from Shen Chenxi not long after. He didn't answer it, because he was afraid that it was just like what Qin Muyang said, she called just to tell him: "Mo Kairui, thank you for your kindness! I don't like the job you introduced!"
When he saw her in the company today, he felt a long-lost and indescribable surprise in his heart. She came, and finally did not let down his efforts for her.
But……
What happened to her feet?
He wanted to rush up to her and ask her why she was so careful. However, Sister Li had already walked towards her first. He had no choice but to follow her and silently remind her not to provoke Sister Li, so as not to bring trouble upon herself.
Unfortunately, if she were really obedient, she wouldn’t be Shen Chenxi anymore.
His mind was not on work for the entire morning.
Seeing her limping while doing those chores, he almost rushed to her, picked her up and left this shabby place.
It was finally noon, and he went all over the street to buy her medicine for bruises and sprains, flat shoes, and her favorite dish, stewed beef brisket with potatoes, but he ended up seeing her chatting and laughing with Qin Muyang here.
In the cave, he heard her mention that Qin Muyang chased her with a diamond sugar.
Sigh... I finally asked Sister Li for half a day off, so I should not make any more trouble. The most urgent thing is to send her back to school to see a doctor!
"Shen Chenxi!"
When Mo Kairui's cold voice came, Shen Chenxi had no time to stop smiling at Qin Muyang.
"What are you doing here?" Shen Chenxi's smile faded, and his questioning voice was colder than his.
"I asked Sister Li for an afternoon off. I'll take you there..."
"No need!" Shen Chenxi interrupted him decisively. Is he blind? Didn't he see that she didn't want to pay attention to him at all?
"Shen Chenxi!"
When she saw Mo Kairui approaching with a fierce look, she still shuddered. It turned out that Mo Kairui was not only arrogant, but also scary when he got angry. However, she, Shen Chenxi, could not afford to offend him, but could afford to avoid him.
"Where are you going?" Seeing Shen Chenxi hopping on one foot and turning away, Mo Kairui took two steps at a time and stood in front of her.
"It's none of your business!" She continued walking.
Mo Kairui held her shoulders and forced her to sit down: "Don't be willful! Don't move if you sprain your ankle." After that, he carefully changed her into a pair of newly bought flat shoes and took out an ice pack to apply to her injured ankle.
Qin Muyang, who was standing aside, felt a trace of bitterness in his heart.
Oh! What is this now, a slap in the face and then a date? Hasn't he heard the saying, "If you didn't show up when I needed you the most, then don't show up again in the future"?
"Mo Kairui, I don't need your care!"
"Shen Chenxi." Mo Kairui took a deep breath, "Yes! I was rude to you today, but are you sure you want to continue being so willful?"
"Willful?" Shen Chenxi's tears, which she had suppressed for a whole night, finally burst out like a flood. "In your eyes, I only know how to mess around and cause you trouble, right?"
"You sprained your ankle while working, and you still want me to praise you for a good job?" Mo Kairui glared at her with a cold tone.
"In that case, why do you have to pretend to care about me?" Shen Chenxi kicked the ice pack off his foot angrily and stood up to leave.
