I'm such a lovesick person.

another side.

As soon as Hua Hongshan hung up the phone, she went to the mirror and looked at her work attire.

"No, it seems a bit too formal, like a corporate negotiation."

She shook her head and immediately called Liu Yue, saying, "Yueyue, Wei Lin asked me to go with him tonight to meet up with his college classmates for dinner. They're a couple. What should I wear?"

Liu Yue was silent for a moment, then said, "Just wear whatever clothes you have!"

"I came here on a whim and didn't go home to get any clothes. Besides my work clothes, all I had was Qingque's sportswear, and I didn't think either of them were suitable!" Hua Hongshan said.

Liu Yue sneered, "Shanshan, who are you to Wei Lin? You're not his girlfriend, why are you thinking so much?"

Hua Hongshan pursed her lips and said angrily, "I'm not talking to you anymore!"

After hanging up the phone, she looked at herself in the mirror from left to right, thought for a moment, opened her phone app, and found that there was a large department store near the hotel.

"Never mind, I'll just buy two more sets!"

Hua Hongshan hurriedly went out.

……

six o'clock.

Wei Lin opened his bedroom door and rang Hua Hongshan's doorbell.

Wearing a beige wool coat over a light gray knit sweater, high heels, and carrying a Prada handbag, Hua Hongshan stood gracefully before him.

Hua Hongshan was clearly wearing makeup; her face was fair, and she had lipstick on her lips.

She is a petite, delicate woman, and this outfit flatters her perfectly, making her look elegant, radiant, and graceful.

Wei Lin was startled and asked, "What are you doing?"

Their trip to Shanghai was impromptu. Hua Hongshan didn't even have time to go home to get clothes; she just picked out yoga pants and a sweatshirt in the office before rushing over with him.

Where did this outfit come from?
"Shouldn't it be more important to take this opportunity to accompany you to meet your old classmates for dinner?"

Hua Hongshan chuckled, turned around in front of Wei Lin, and asked, "Is this set okay?"

Seeing Wei Lin's strange expression, she thought it didn't look good and hurriedly said, "If this one doesn't work, I'll show you another one?"

Wei Lin shook his head and muttered, "It's just a meal, why are you making such a big fuss? Are you crazy?"

Hua Hongshan snorted and ignored him.

……

A local Shanghainese restaurant.

Wang Xiaolong and Sun Xingbei arrived early and sat in the lobby waiting for Wei Lin's arrival.

"Wang Xiaolong! You're really something!"

Sun Xingbei had also dressed herself up carefully, wearing all the valuable items from her home, and complained, "Wei Lin asked you to find a place, and this is the place you chose?"

This local Shanghainese restaurant is one that she and Wang Xiaolong often eat at. The food is indeed quite good, but it's just a small restaurant.

There were four of them in total, and Wang Xiaolong hadn't booked a private room in advance, so being made to dine in the noisy main hall made her feel a little embarrassed.

Wei Lin is her boss now, and she had said some unpleasant things to him before, which made her feel uneasy.

Before Wei Lin left Shanghai last time, she insisted that Wang Xiaolong invite Wei Lin out for a meal so that she could apologize to him in person.

Wei Lin refused, citing that he was too busy.

Lately, she's been living in fear, worried that Wei Lin might be petty and secretly inform her boss, Peng Xiang, causing her to lose her job.

Now that Wei Lin has come to Shanghai again and even offered to treat Wang Xiaolong to dinner, she felt that he should be treated with great respect.

She was extremely dissatisfied with the restaurant Wang Xiaolong had chosen, and she was full of resentment and anger, which she kept venting.

"Wei Lin isn't the kind of person who's particular. Since he said any place will do, then I'll just find one."

Wang Xiaolong didn't care and kept looking down at the menu.

"We can't let Wei Lin pay the bill today!" Sun Xingbei reminded him.

"understood."

Wang Xiaolong gave a perfunctory reply, only to find the waiter leading Wei Lin and an extremely beautiful woman toward their table.

"Wow! It's so beautiful!"

Wang Xiaolong secretly praised him.

He always knew that Wei Lin was popular with women; during his university years, Wei Lin was always surrounded by women.

Unexpectedly, Wei Lin remained the same after graduation, which made Wang Xiaolong deeply envious.

He glanced at Sun Xingbei subconsciously, compared her to Hua Hongshan, and immediately felt that Sun Xingbei was completely outclassed.

In terms of temperament, appearance, and fashion sense, Hua Hongshan is far superior.

"Comparing yourself to others will only make you miserable, whether you're a student or after graduation."

The more Wang Xiaolong looked at Hua Hongshan, the more amazed he became, and his attitude towards his girlfriend Sun Xingbei standing next to him became somewhat indifferent.

"Wei Lin! You've arrived!"

Sun Xingbei stood up first and greeted them warmly, saying, "Xiao Long is unreliable, so he found you this little restaurant. Please don't mind!"

Wei Lin smiled and shook his head: "Xiao Long and I have been classmates for so many years, I don't care about this."

Sun Xingbei quickly replied, "That's good, that's good."

"Wang Xiaolong, my college classmate, his girlfriend is Sun Xingbei."

"This is Hua Hongshan, my friend."

Wei Lin sat down and began to introduce themselves with a smile.

"Hello."

Hua Hongshan naturally sat down next to Wei Lin, giving the two of them a calm smile, appearing poised and elegant. "Miss Hua is truly beautiful!"

Wang Xiaolong praised him sincerely.

With just one glance, he regarded Hua Hongshan as Wei Lin's girlfriend, and picked up the teapot to pour water for the two of them.

Hua Hongshan was very considerate. She took boiling water and carefully scalded Wei Lin's tableware before scalding her own.

Judging from the way she acted, it was clear that she and Wei Lin were not just ordinary friends.

Wei Lin was surprised and gave her a strange look.

Hua Hongshan dressed up for the occasion, even buying two new outfits. She rarely wore makeup, but she put on exquisite makeup, which made Wei Lin feel flattered.

"What exactly is this woman trying to do? When we were interacting normally a while ago, she was still putting on airs."

"When I actually stopped paying attention to her, she started giving me even more affection points. Now she's acting like my girlfriend. What's wrong with her?"

Wei Lin muttered to himself.

"Wei Lin, I misunderstood you before, please don't be angry."

Sun Xingbei chuckled awkwardly and apologized, her heart filled with mixed feelings.

She never imagined that the small business owner in Linjiang City, whom she saw as a potential successor, would suddenly become her boss and invest 80 million yuan in Kunpeng Games.

Her attitude underwent a complete reversal; she became very obsequious at the table, constantly praising how hard Wang Xiaolong worked.

The implication was clear: she hoped that Wei Lin, the boss, would take notice and secretly help Wang Xiaolong get a promotion within the company.

It's common knowledge that as you climb higher in your position, your salary will naturally increase as well.

She knew that Wang Xiaolong wasn't very good at socializing and was rather honest and simple. She pinned her hopes for Wang Xiaolong's future on Wei Lin, so of course she would flatter him to the extreme.

Wei Lin smiled but did not give any clear answer, only continuing to question the situation of Kunpeng Games.

Hua Hongshan and Sun Xingbei started talking at once, telling him that although the company was temporarily in trouble, the internal atmosphere was still good.

Kunpeng has plenty of funds in its accounts, and as long as salaries are paid on time, no one has any complaints.

Employees are just employees after all. As long as they get paid and work, that's enough. I don't worry about anything else.

They didn't care how many pounds their boss, Peng Xiang, had lost from worry.

Wang Xiaolong was unaware that Peng Xiang had broken up with his girlfriend; he only said that President Peng had been quite busy lately and hadn't been to the company often.

“President Peng is a second-generation rich kid, and his family has strong connections! He always manages to find a way to solve the problems the company encounters!” Sun Xingbei, who has always admired Peng Xiang, said, “Wei Lin, you made the right decision to invest in Kunpeng Games.”

Wei Lin smiled faintly.

Peng Xiang's current predicament is something he cannot solve on his own, but Sun Xingbei is unaware of this.

"Employees are just employees; they'll never understand the boss's difficulties."

Hua Hongshan sighed inwardly.

She clearly saw Peng Xiang's mental state when she saw him yesterday.

She couldn't help but recall the anxiety and unease Qingque felt when she encountered difficulties, and then she felt even more grateful for Wei Lin's arrival, her eyes sparkling with an unusual ripple as she looked at him.

But she didn't say much; she just quietly picked up her food and ate, listening attentively to the three people's conversation.

"Wei Lin is really good to his old classmates. Even though he's one of the bosses, he doesn't put on any airs at all."

"Wang Xiaolong is a tech guy, and Sun Xingbei... seems a bit snobbish. It seems she had some misunderstanding with Wei Lin before."

Hua Hongshan made her own judgment.

The meal yielded little result; Wei Lin did not obtain much useful information from Wang Xiaolong and Sun Xingbei.

On the contrary, Hua Hongshan's performance surprised and puzzled Wei Lin.

period.

Both Wang Xiaolong and Sun Xingbei treated Hua Hongshan as their girlfriend, and would bring her along when toasting.

Hua Hongshan not only didn't clarify their relationship, but seemed quite happy about it, which made Wei Lin, who wanted to explain, hesitant to speak.

After eating.

"Wei Lin, why did you pay the bill?"

Sun Xingbei, who was pretending to go to the restroom but was actually planning to secretly pay the bill at the bar, returned and feigned displeasure, scolding him.

Wei Lin was taken aback: "No, I haven't had a chance to pay yet."

He and Wang Xiaolong had already started talking about their college days and their good buddies, without moving an inch.

"Not you?"

Sun Xingbei looked puzzled, then turned to Wang Xiaolong.

Wang Xiaolong shook his head.

"I paid the bill when I went to the restroom," Hua Hongshan said with a smile.

Wei Lin was taken aback: "What are you paying for?"

"It's not much money, it doesn't matter who pays," Hua Hongshan said indifferently.

For some reason, she felt quite happy when Wang Xiaolong and Sun Xingbei, the couple, mistook her and Wei Lin for a couple.

Overjoyed, she bought the bill.

"Shall we ask you two to sing a song?"

Sun Xingbei made the suggestion.
