After the new quarter's procurement meeting, Yu Yi and the two brothers and sisters from the Bai family walked out of the conference room together.
Bai Ce raised his left hand and glanced at the famous watch on his wrist, and suggested, "Why don't we have lunch together?"
Yu Yi nodded: "I want to eat Italian food."
Bai Xiao, who was following them, was stunned for a moment. Bai Ce turned his head to look at her and asked, "What's wrong? You don't want to eat Italian food?"
Bai Xiao shook his head and said with a smile, "No, just eat Italian food."
Bai Ce raised his eyebrows, walked to Yu Yi's side, and chatted with him about stocks. Bai Xiao followed behind them, silently watching Yu Yi's back.
He thought about the word just now, and this was the first time she heard Yu Yi express her wishes.
Although she didn't have much contact with Yu Yi in private, they had cooperated in the business field for so many years, and Yu Yi always made the most correct decisions through rational judgment in everything she did - from corporate decisions to lunchtime meals. what.
He's like a robot who can never go wrong, inhumanly indifferent.
But it is such a depression, he just said that he wants to eat Italian food.
Italian food has such a great charm, making Yu Yi even interested in it? Bai Xiao's eyes moved, no, there was something else that made him gradually feel the same as ordinary people.
what is it then
Bai Xiao always felt that he seemed to know the answer.
During the meal, Bai Ce kept chatting about stocks with great interest, Yu Yi would occasionally answer a few words, and Bai Xiao sat next to him and ate silently. When paying the bill after the meal, Yu Yi took the initiative to express his invitation, and Bai Ce readily accepted.
It's just that after Yu Yi took out his wallet and opened it, he quickly grabbed Yu Yi's wrist: "What's on your wallet?" Bai Ce was so surprised that his eyes almost fell out, "Fuck this big head on it. Is it you? You still have dimples?! Ah no, the point is this girl next to her, isn't she the pastry chef who taught Xiaoxiao how to make cakes?"
Bai Xiao also stretched his neck and looked at Yu Yi's wallet, there was indeed a sticker on it, which was incompatible with his high-profile wallet. What surprised her the most was the man on the poster. No matter how he dressed or behaved, he had nothing to do with Yu Yi. If they didn't have the same face, she wouldn't think he was Yu Yi at all. meaning.
Speaking of which, on Yu Yi's birthday last time, she seemed to have seen such Yu Yi once.
For the first time in his life, Yu Yi felt a little embarrassed, but with the iceberg face to protect his body, he still calmly withdrew his hand and handed the card to the waiter in a jacket next to him.
Bai Ce looked at him with a half-smile, his eyes full of jokes: "Aren't you going to explain it?"
Yu Yi said, "Why should I explain to you? You are not my boyfriend."
Bai Ce: "..."
He felt that the earth was about to be destroyed, otherwise how could Yu Yi tell a bad joke? !
Yu Yi completely ignored his three-view collapsed expression, and went straight back to the company after leaving the restaurant. Bai Ce looked sideways at Bai Xiao, who was standing beside him, and patted her head with a smile: "If you're not feeling well, go home and rest first."
On Bai Xiao's face, there was a trace of embarrassment of being exposed by others, but at the same time, he was moved by Bai Ce's thoughtfulness. She stopped a taxi and went home alone.
After lying down in the room for a while, she couldn't help but sit up and call Tang Mi.
Tang Mi had recovered from her illness and returned to work. When she saw Bai Xiao's call, she quickly answered, "Miss Bai, what's the matter?"
Bai Xiao paused reflexively before answering: "Oh, I heard that you came back from Japan and wanted to ask when you have time to continue teaching me how to make cakes."
Tang Mi counted the time and said to Bai Xiao, "That's it, I just took a day of sick leave, and the store manager said that he would take a rest day and not deduct my salary, but then I would have to stay connected for a long time. class."
"Oh, that's it, then contact me when you have time."
Bai Xiao's voice sounded a little disappointed, Tang Mi thought for a while and said, "If you don't mind, you can make a simple and time-consuming one. It's enough to use my time after get off work."
"Okay, thank you."
"You're welcome." She wanted to collect money anyway.
Tang Mi got off work at seven o'clock. Bai Xiao sent a driver early and waited outside the restaurant. Tang Mi took her directly to her home after get off work.
Because there was not enough time in the evening, Tang Mi suggested to make roasted buds: "This can be done in an hour."
"Okay." Bai Xiao nodded and followed her. The method of baking the buds is very simple, and the baking time is not long. The two quickly reached the last step.
"Be careful when you sprinkle brown sugar, if the amount is not enough or uneven, the caramel on the surface will not bake beautifully."
"Yeah." Bai Xiao responded, carefully filtering the brown sugar with a universal mesh sieve. Once the brown sugar has covered the entire surface, heat it with a gas gun until charred.
"It's very beautiful!" Tang Mi praised Bai Xiao's work, and she and she sat down in the living room with a plate of roasted buds to eat.
"This crackling sound is really addictive." Bai Xiao tapped the surface of the caramel with a spoon and said to Tang Mi with a smile.
Tang Mi nodded in agreement: "President Yu also said that the crisp sound of caramel cracking is fascinating."
Bai Xiao paused for a moment, scooped up a spoonful of roasted buds with a spoon, and asked casually, "Are you and Yu Yi dating?"
"Cough cough!" Tang Mi almost spit out all the roasted buds in her mouth, "No, no, why do you think so?"
Bai Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly and held the spoon in his hand: "I saw your sticker sticking in his wallet."
Tang Mi: "..."
Although Bai Xiao's words were vague, she could hear it clearly.
Mr. Yu... Mr. Yu didn't even tear off that silly photo sticker!
"That was taken by President Yu on a whim, um."
Bai Xiao blinked, looked at her and said, "Yuyi seems to have changed a lot recently."
Tang Mi responded stiffly, "Really?"
"Yeah." Bai Xiao smiled, "But it's all a good change, so I'm quite happy."
"Hmm." Tang Mi nodded with her spoon in her head, but didn't say anything.
After eating the roasted buds on the plate, she wiped her mouth and got up to say goodbye: "It's getting late, I'll go back first."
"Okay, I'll trouble you today." Bai Xiao sent her to the door, or sent a driver to take her back.
After arriving home, Tang Mi kept thinking about whether Bai Xiao was looking for her today mainly to ask her if she was dating President Yu
She thought of what Lin Che had said about the marriage of the Bai Yu family, she curled her lips, pulled out her pajamas and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
July 13th was Tang Mi's birthday. Lin Che started calling her two days in advance, but Tang Mi rejected her because she wanted to go to work.
On the same day, Yu Yi suddenly ordered Luo Hao, "Notify Qi Xuan, and arrange a vacation for Tang Mi tomorrow."
Luo Hao was stunned for a moment, and soon laughed as if he understood something: "I see, I'll let you know now."
Tang Mi was stunned for a while after receiving the store manager's notice that she would be scheduled for rest tomorrow. Seeing that she was standing there huhu, the store manager couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth and asked, "Is it your birthday tomorrow?"
Tang Mi nodded dumbly: "Yes."
The store manager said: "The company gives employees the benefits, and they can take vacations on their birthdays."
Tang Mi: "..."
Although she has no work experience, it is definitely the first time she has heard of a company where she can take vacations on her birthday.
"Ah, but this benefit is random, not every employee has it, so you don't tell anyone else."
"Oh..." Tang Mi nodded again, it turned out to be a hidden benefit, no wonder. So, shouldn't she buy a lottery ticket
"If nothing else, just go out to work first, happy birthday."
"Thank you boss."
After Tang Mi left, the store manager thought sadly, it's really not easy for them to be subordinates, and they have to help the boss chase girlfriends.
Although Tang Mi has a day off, tomorrow is not a weekend, and Fu Xin can't accompany her on her birthday. She thought about it, and finally decided to sleep at home for a day, and then invite Fu Xin out for dinner at night.
As a result, as soon as I got out of the shower, I received a call from Yu Yi.
Seeing the number on the screen, she preconceived that it was Yu Xin, so she asked, "Yu Xin?"
The person on the other end of the phone was silent for a while before saying, "It's me, Yu Yi."
Tang Mi was startled, but before she recovered, Yu Yi spoke again: "Do you really hope it is Yu Xin?"
Noticing the slight unhappiness in his tone, Tang Mi quickly said, "No, because you used to find me through Assistant Luo, and Yu Xin called me by himself, so I thought..."
Yu Yi was silent for a while, and said, "I will call you directly when I look for you in the future."
"Oh." Tang Mi responded, but the corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously, "Mr. Yu, what's the matter with you?"
"Well..." The short pause made Tang Mi feel a hint of embarrassment. "Well, I couldn't treat you to dinner in Japan last time, so I wanted to find a chance to make it up. Are you free tomorrow?"
Tang Mi blinked quickly and said with a smile, "What a coincidence, the store manager just gave me a holiday tomorrow."
Although Yu Yi didn't speak, Tang Mi felt that he seemed even more embarrassed now. She smiled silently and asked, "Do you want to invite me to dinner tomorrow?"
"Well, I'll pick you up from downstairs at your house at eleven o'clock."
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Yu." Tang Mi happily hung up the phone and laughed while hugging the quilt.
That night, she specially asked Fu Xin for the mask she brought back from Japan, put it on her face, and went to bed early for her beauty sleep.
When Fu Xin went out to work the next day, she also got up, went to take a shower, and then opened the wardrobe to pick out clothes.
The clothes that Yu Xin took her to buy last time were finally useful!
She tried several skirts, and finally put on her favorite pair of vertical striped overalls and a white shirt. After looking at the mirror from a different angle, she combed her hair in a small plate. .
After the styling was finished, Tang Mi did a rare light makeup on herself, and received a call from Yu Yi not long after. This time she learned to be good, and she said sweetly, "Boss Yu!"
Yu Yi paused, and a low and pleasant voice came through the receiver: "I'm downstairs from your house."
Tang Mi raised the corners of her mouth: "Okay, I'll come down immediately."
