I Want A Lifetime With You

“Yes, please keep it safe. Everyone only gets one number tag.” Mai Qi smiled and put away her personnel list. “I still need to go to other departments.”

“See you later, Ms. Mai!”

After Mai Qi left, Yuan Jia could no longer contain her excitement and wanted to gossip with Shi Nuan. But before she could say anything, Director Lin shot her a look and chided, “No discussing of personal matters during work hours.” Ling Yu handed a folder to Shi Nuan, “Go ahead with this first. Ask me if there’s anything you’re not sure about.”

“Yes, sir.” Shi Nuan took the folder and waited until Lin Yu left before going back to her seat. She placed the number tag in her bag and prepared to review some documents.

Yuan Jia rushed to Shi Nuan’s side and whispered to her, “Shi Nuan, aren’t you even a little bit curious about what the numbers are for? I asked Mai Qi, and she would only say it’s some kind of a reward.”

“Oh!” Shi Nuan nodded. “Okay!”

Yuan Jia noticed that Shi Nuan wasn’t too interested in this so-called reward. “Aren’t you curious at all?”

“I am. But you said it’s some kind of a reward, and we’ll find out soon enough at the annual meeting. I still have work that I need to finish.” Shi Nuan pointed to the papers and the datasheets in front of her.

Yuan Jia sighed, “What am I going to do with you?”

Previously, Yuan Jia had plenty of misunderstandings towards Shi Nuan. She thought that she was someone who had gotten the job by pulling strings and had no skills other than just looking pretty. But after working together for a while, Yuan Jia realized how wrong she was. Shi Nuan was a complete workaholic, just like Lin Yu. “Get going then.”

After Yuan Jia left, Shi Nuan spaced out for a bit before she took the number tag out to have a look again. She grabbed her phone and sent Fu Chengyan a message via WeChat. “You had Mai Qi give out number tags?”

A reply quickly arrived. “Yes.”

“It’s a kind of reward?” Shi Nuan didn’t want to gossip, but she had a hunch that there was something suspicious about it. Why on earth was he giving out number tags?

“Guess!”

Fu Chengyan looked at his phone and grinned.

Zhou Zheng was standing stiffly in front of Fu Chengyan’s desk, holding papers with one hand and pinching his leg with the other.

Fu Chengyan looked up and reverted back to his stern expression. “What were we talking about?”

We were discussing the guests and partnerships for the annual meeting. Mr. Fu,

Jingyu had also gotten a number tag. She knew about the reward, so she sought out Mai Qi to get a number for herself and even personally chose number 13, a number she found to be lucky. Song Jingyu had heard from Mai Qi that Fu Chengyan’s number was fourteen. Hence, the two numbers together
