Working: Start by earning the boss a hundred million!

Chapter 114 Heavy Rain
Cheng Mai ultimately did not contact Yang Fan, not because he couldn't bear the consequences, but because he felt it was unnecessary.

I'm just in a bad mood.

Shang Xingjian looked at the heavy rain outside. There were hardly any pedestrians on the road. After all, seeking shelter from the rain is a human instinct.

Cheng Mai followed his gaze and saw that the streetlights were still on and the doors of the shops across the street were still open, probably waiting for people to get off work.

The cashier inside kept glancing out, her expression a mixture of dissatisfaction and worry. If the rain didn't stop, she would probably have to stay at the shop all night.

Shang Xingjian was looking outwards, while Cheng Mai was looking at Shang Xingjian.

Time passed, and the rain outside showed no signs of stopping.

Shang Xingjian finally looked away and met Cheng Mai's gaze.

"Why are you staring at me like that?" A smile crept across Shang Xingjian's face.

Cheng Mai didn't dodge, nor did he react negatively to his sarcastic remark.

"Shang Xingjian, has anyone ever told you that you're very good-looking?" Cheng Mai admitted that she was a sucker for good looks, but she didn't think there was anything wrong with saying it.

Is it wrong for people to look at someone who's good-looking?

Shang Xingjian raised an eyebrow slightly. "Who do you think would dare to say I'm good-looking in front of me?"

“That makes sense.” Cheng Mai thought for a moment and realized that his question was not very reasonable. “So I’m the first one? I’d be quite honored.”

After Cheng Mai finished speaking, he checked the time and said, "Let's go. This rain is definitely not going to stop anytime soon. We can't just wait here all night."

They still have to see Lord Si Lan tomorrow. Shang Xingjian doesn't need to rest, but she does.

Old Liu came over to drive. If Cheng Mai hadn't been in the car, he probably could have driven it to take off, but with Cheng Mai there, he drove very cautiously.

Cheng Mai contacted Zhi Huihui in the car, but Zhi Huihui said she was very busy and told Cheng Mai to be obedient and not to bother her, before coldly ending the call.

Cheng Mai looked at Shang Xingjian in shock, "Am I being rejected?" And so blatantly.

Merchant Jian smiled slightly, "It's obvious."

Cheng Mai had to accept this fact, so he stopped disturbing Zhi Huihui's studies.

It was raining today, so Lao Liu parked his car in the parking lot and they went up directly via the elevator to avoid getting wet.

Cheng Mai was yawning as he went upstairs. Leaning against the elevator, he looked at Shang Xingjian and said, "I don't think you and Qingfan Shenjun have a very good relationship."

"That's your misconception. Someone as outstanding as me would be the darling of everyone wherever I go," Shang Xingjian said shamelessly.

Cheng Mai rolled her eyes without making any attempt to hide it, but did not refute his statement.

Back home, Cheng Mai yawned again. "I'm going to sleep now, I'm so sleepy."

Shang Xingjian did not stop her from returning to her room, but her expression became more serious when she looked at the heavy rain outside.

The rain came suddenly.

Shen Luo investigated and found that it was a natural phenomenon with no human intervention involved.

However, she felt that the boss shouldn't have made a mistake, so she checked it several times. Even the system development team checked it several times, but the result was the same.

It's a natural phenomenon.

When Shang Xingjian received a response, he simply replied, "I understand." He then stood by the window watching the heavy rain outside. The weather forecast indicated that the rain would stop tomorrow afternoon, mainly due to the impact of the typhoon.

Shang Xingjian chuckled. A breeze picked up outside the window, not strong, but it made the downpour look even more frightening.

I'm not feeling well, so I need to take a day off. I'll make it up to you during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
