She was fired after she refused to be the CEO's dog licker.

Sitting at the table were Yan Dong and Feng Wenting, both of whom had been on leave for a long time.

I miss Feng Wenting especially these days because her leave has directly slowed down the project progress. At the same time, my workload has also increased. Moreover, I really need her inspiration and creativity. When she is not around, I really feel like something is missing.

So when I saw Feng Wenting at this moment, I was excited and excited: "Wenting, you are here too, how are you doing recently, are you feeling better, when can you come to work?"

Feng Wenting's original reason for asking for leave was that she was not feeling well and needed to go home and rest for a few days. I saw that her condition was indeed not very good, so I approved her leave without hesitation.

At this moment, I saw her sitting next to Yan Dong, with delicate makeup and bright eyes, and it was obvious that she was in good condition.

The moment she saw me, Feng Wenting showed a smile in her eyes, but this smile was filled with alienation and indifference.

Her tone was polite and indifferent: "Sorry, Manager Meng, I may be delayed for a few more days."

Feng Wenting's tone was very different from the last time I met her in the VIP room of the Jewelry City. I remember that at that time, her attitude towards me was intimate and enthusiastic.

But her tone reminded me and made me reflect on myself: I was indeed a little too impatient. What I said just now made people feel that my purpose was too obvious. It didn't seem like I really cared about other people's health. Instead, it seemed like an unscrupulous boss urging employees to return to their posts and work hard.

It’s no wonder that Feng Wenting is cold to me. She is indeed a person who loves her job and has great enthusiasm and motivation for her job. However, as a young lady who has been spoiled since childhood, she doesn’t like to be forced to work like a slave.

I spoke in the wrong way and made her unhappy.

"Okay, okay, if you're not feeling well, you can just rest for a few more days." So I quickly tried to make amends, "It won't be too late to come back after you've rested."

Feng Wenting's tone was still cold: "Manager Lao Meng, thank you for your concern, but I am in good health now. The reason I want to take two more days off is because I have important things to do at home."

She was like this, which made me feel a little embarrassed.

It turns out that she asked for leave not for rest, but because of something at home?

It must be a very important matter, otherwise Feng Wenting would not abandon the work she had invested so much effort in.

My eyes fell on her and Yan Dong's shoulders which were slightly close to each other, and I suddenly realized that Feng Wenting was talking about her engagement to Yan Dong, which was of course a big deal.

So I immediately smiled and said, "Engagement is indeed an important matter, and you should ask for leave, but why didn't you inform us? As colleagues and friends, we should all be there to celebrate your happy event."

In fact, I have known for a long time that Feng Wenting and Yan Dong are going to get engaged soon. Last time I was in the jewelry city, I heard Feng Wenting and her brother and sister choosing engagement rings. But Yan Dong and she are colleagues in the company, and Yan Dong is also my old classmate and friend. I should be there to bless their wedding. Why didn’t they invite me?

"My brothers and sisters don't like to show off, so this matter is just for the two families to sit together and have a meal to celebrate, and they don't plan to invite outsiders." Feng Wenting explained softly.

"Our happy event?" At this moment, Yan Dong, who had been sitting next to Feng Wenting without saying anything, suddenly spoke.

From the beginning till now, although Yan Dong didn't say anything, his eyes were always on my face. At this moment, his brows were furrowed, and his tone was anxious: "Nan Xu, did you misunderstand? It's not Wen Ting and I who are going to get engaged, it's Mr. Feng and Miss Yuan."

"What?" I was stunned.

Aren't Yan Dong and Feng Wenting going to get engaged? At that time in the jewelry city, Feng Wenting was so excited to choose an engagement ring.

But I soon understood. At that time, I only heard Feng Wenzhuo and his sister discussing the selection of engagement rings, but I did not ask whether Yan Dong and Feng Wenting were going to get engaged, and they did not say whose engagement ring it was. I misunderstood.

No wonder I felt strange at the time. When Feng Wenting was choosing the ring, she said it was just an engagement ring and there was no need for something so expensive. But Feng Wenzhuo said it couldn't be too shabby and she should pick something better. At the time, I thought Feng Wenzhuo loved his sister so much that he didn't want to let her down in the slightest. It turned out that after all this fuss, he was choosing an engagement ring for himself, so he had to choose a good one.

It's just that Feng Wenzhuo is a business tycoon and a veteran capital boss. There are always scandals about him and he is very extravagant, but I have never heard of any news that he is going to settle down. This is the first time I have heard of this Miss Yuan. From what Feng Wenting said, it is probably Miss Yuan's idea to keep a low profile on the engagement. Feng Wenzhuo actually obeyed her orders, which is even more puzzling. I don't know what kind of girl can marry this playboy.

"Yes, it's Mr. Feng who's engaged." Yan Dong continued to explain, emphasizing, "Also, Nan Xu, I've told you many times before that Wen Ting and I are just friends, not in a relationship. Have you always misunderstood us?"

When he said that, I felt embarrassed and stood there not knowing what to say.

Ever since Yan Dong harassed me and I clearly rejected him, he has never shown up in the company again, and we have no private contact anymore. I always thought that once his relationship with Feng Wenting was settled, he would be more sober, and we could still be friends in the future.

If I hadn't seen him and Feng Wenting sitting together intimately shoulder to shoulder today, I wouldn't have approached them so naturally to talk. But I didn't expect that they weren't the ones getting engaged, and he emphasized in front of Feng Wenting so seriously that they weren't in a relationship...

Why is this emphasized?

Why do you need to explain this to me?

I was embarrassed, but Feng Wenting, who was sitting in front of me, started to look unnatural. Her long brows furrowed, and the alienation and indifference faded away, turning into an icy coldness.

When she inadvertently looked up at me, her eyes were cold and sharp. My heart sank and I had a bad premonition.

"Whether Professor Yan and Miss Feng are in love or not has anything to do with my girlfriend? My girlfriend doesn't care about you. My sister only cares about me." At this moment, Yuan Tianye came over, put his arm around my shoulders and took me to the side. He stood directly between Feng Wenting and me, blocking Feng Wenting's cold gaze at me.

But his eyes were fixed on Yan Dong's face, and he raised the corners of his lips and said with a half-smile: "Why are you telling my girlfriend all this? Could it be that you still have evil intentions towards my girlfriend and want to steal my girl away?"

"What? Professor Yan wants to steal Xiao Ye's girlfriend? Great, there's something interesting to watch!" Zhang Tingyuan also came over and sat on my right, adding fuel to the fire with great interest, and stuffed a handful of melon seeds into my hand, "Sister, here are some melon seeds, let's eat and watch the show!"
