A few minutes later, Alice Wen and three colleagues came to the private room and sat down.
Alice Wen lowered his voice and apologized to Emma Zhu: "I'm sorry that I ruined your birthday party like this." Want to poach him to their company?
Finally, Alice Wen retracted his gaze, hooked his finger at Emma Zhu, and said, "He should be a shy person with low defense value. You can hit him straight and make miracles happen with great force."
"Okay, okay." Emma Zhu was very happy to hear that, and then asked Alice Wen, "I'm a little curious about the boss's face, you can take a look at him too."
Alice Wen didn't even raise her eyes and blurted out: "No need to look, he's not a good person."
Emma Zhu: "Why are you so arbitrary? Just take a look and analyze what kind of girl he likes."
Alice Wen: [Physiognomy is a very mysterious thing. Everyone has a different face, so it is easy to have deviations.]
Emma Zhu: [It’s okay, you analyze it, I believe you]
Alice Wen sighed, put down her phone, and stared at Du Jingcheng for a while.
The girls were quiet for a rare moment, and Noah Yun glanced at them casually.
Following Alice Wen's gaze, he saw Du Jingcheng.
Hearing this, Alice Wen's breathing inexplicably quickened.
He unconsciously raised his eyes and looked towards Noah Yun.
He was listening to the people around him talking, tapping the tabletop irregularly with his index finger, looking straight ahead absentmindedly, and happened to meet Alice Wen's gaze.
Alice Wen immediately looked away and strategically took a bite of the food.
Her eyes were focused, and for some reason, Noah Yun thought of a scanner.
Noah Yun lowered his head and took a sip of water, then raised his eyes again.
Why are you still watching?
What's the meaning?
Could it be that... Emma Zhu leaned close to her ear and whispered, "I think he might like someone like you a little bit."
Alice Wen:?
You can eat whatever you want, but you can’t say whatever you want.
Emma Zhu: "Didn't you notice? He was indifferent to everyone, but he took the initiative to look at you several times."
Upon hearing this, Alice Wen subconsciously looked across again.
Emma Zhu came over and asked: "Do you see what's going on?"
In fact, there was no need to look. Alice Wen closed his eyes and a clear picture of what Noah Yun looked like emerged in his mind.
But she couldn't analyze what kind of girl he would like.
Because her interpretation will be influenced by her emotions.
Just like when she usually does divination, only when she is calm and focused can she get the accurate answer, otherwise it will be a mess.
Noah Yun was looking in her direction, his left wrist pressed against his phone. Alice Wen blinked, took out her phone from her pocket, and saw that he had sent her a message a few minutes ago.
Noah Yun: [Concentrate on eating]
Noah Yun: [Don't be sneaky]
Alice Wen: ...
Alice Wen said casually: "He doesn't seem to like girls."
Emma Zhu was shocked: "What do you mean? He likes men?"
"No..." Alice Wen explained, "He's a bit like a love insulator, he won't fall in love with anyone."
"Is that so?" Emma Zhu touched her chin, "I don't think so."
Alice Wen was curious: "What did you see?" Noah Yun's straight male thinking finally came to his senses. His eyes moved between Alice Wen and Du Jingcheng, and finally fell on Du Jingcheng's face, and asked lightly: "Are you single?"
Du Jingcheng looked confused: "Yes."
Noah Yun asked again: "What's your rank?"
Du Jingcheng: "L4."
Noah Yun: "Too low. Your home is in Shanghai?"
Emma Zhu: "How is it, do you think he is interested in you?"
Alice Wen smiled and said, "I think you might be blind."
The dishes were served one after another, most of them were single portions and did not need to be shared.
Alice Wen concentrated on the steak in front of him, occasionally answering one or two questions, and the rest of the time, he played the role of a qualified listener.
Luo Jiayou knew that he couldn't hide the truth from his boss, so he confessed that today's dinner was actually a spur-of-the-moment idea and he and Alice Wen had not made any appointment in advance.
Du Jingcheng: "Shen Piao, my parents have a house here."
...
Noah Yun's attitude is a bit like a leader's
Noah Yun didn't care about it.
Luo Jiayou was a little curious about how Alice Wen and Du Jingcheng knew each other. Little Du was an honest child and said frankly: "We just met today. Senior Wen invited me to celebrate my birthday with them."
Invite a handsome stranger to celebrate your birthday together?
So that's a pick-up?
Luo Jiayou was very surprised. He had pursued Alice Wen when he was in school, but was ignored in the end. Today, he found out that she actually liked younger men.
Before she looked away and was about to hang up, she saw Noah Yun raise his eyebrows slightly, swipe the screen with his fingertips, and answer her call.
Got...her call?
Not only did he answer the call, he also leisurely picked up the phone and put it to his ear: "Don't rush me."
After a pause, "Your brother saw it."
Alice Wen's eyelids twitched and she hung up the phone without hesitation.
Inspecting subordinates, but the questions asked are beyond the scope of the scope, and seem more like checking household registration.
The atmosphere at the dinner table became extremely subtle.
The employees were so anxious that they dared not breathe and were all worried about Xiao Du.
Alice Wen anxiously held the fork in her hand, rubbing the soles of her shoes on the ground. She wanted to explain herself clearly, but she couldn't say in public, "The one who likes him is my colleague."
She couldn't care less about other people. The important thing was to make things clear with Noah Yun.
I really admire him. He is so arrogant to the core that he can act like a fool regardless of time or place.
Alice Wen didn't want to expose her familiarity with Noah Yun in front of others. He was too famous, and that would only bring her endless troubles.
Pretending to be strangers, it's fine like this.
Beneath her calm and aloof appearance, there seemed to be a hint of secret happiness deep in her heart.
Tell him to shut up immediately.
Alice Wen sent Noah Yun several messages in a row. His phone was placed beside him, but he never picked it up to read it.
In a hurry, Alice Wen called Noah Yun directly.
The phone started to vibrate, and the moment Noah Yun picked it up, he saw a series of messages that Alice Wen had sent earlier.
Alice Wen took in his actions and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Alice Wen was also stunned for a moment, his head was a little hot, and it took him a few seconds to calm down and answer: "He probably meant... he thought the noodles were unpalatable and didn't recommend that I take them away."
Emma Zhu nodded: "That makes sense."
After a while, she suddenly laughed and whispered to Alice Wen: "To be honest, when I heard the boss say that to you just now, I inexplicably imagined that you and him were living together, and he disliked the leftovers you packed, and wanted to take you to eat something better in the evening. I was scared to death."
Alice Wen: ...
I have to say, my imagination is pretty accurate.
In just a short lunch, all the signature dishes were served. The boys couldn't finish them, and Alice Wen and Emma Zhu had even more left over.
Someone asked the waiter for take-away boxes. Seeing this, Emma Zhu also asked for a few and gave one to Alice Wen. She said:
"Your basil noodles are barely touched, just take them back for dinner."
She knew that Alice Wen couldn't cook, so in the evening she would either order takeout or eat leftovers from lunch, or simply not eat.
Alice Wen nodded, took the takeaway box and poured the noodles into it.
Alice Wen laughed dryly: "You have a rich imagination
Rich. "
Emma Zhu's thoughts jumped and she quickly talked about something else: "I just chatted with Xiao Du for a while. He also lives in your aristocratic community. When are you free to invite me to your house?"
Noah Yun left first with his assistant. When he passed by Alice Wen, he suddenly paused and glanced at the packing box in her hand.
"That's not necessary." He spoke without warning, his tone was neither salty nor bland, and seemed to carry a hint of instruction, "You probably won't eat this tonight."
After saying that, he walked away with his long legs, and his handsome figure soon disappeared in the aisle.
Emma Zhu was stunned: "Yuzi, was the boss talking to you just now?"
"What do you mean 'you probably won't eat this tonight'? How does he know you won't eat? It sounds like he knows you very well?" Alice Wen: "Nothing, I just want to go home early."
"No one is waiting for you at home, why are you in such a hurry?" Emma Zhu rubbed her hair, "I have a party tonight, but there is a problem with this underlying framework. I dare not leave, woo woo."
Alice Wen glanced at the time: "If you haven't finished it in half an hour, send it to me and I'll help you check it at home."
Emma Zhu's eyes lit up: "Yuzu, I love you~"
Alice Wen smiled and said, "I'll go first, happy birthday!"
"I'm sharing a house with someone, so it might not be convenient..." Alice Wen thought about it and realized that Noah Yun would not show up once a month, and the house was so empty, so it was just right for hanging out with friends, so she changed her words and said, "After a while, when all the flowers I planted on the balcony are in bloom, I'll invite you over."
Emma Zhu: "Then I'm waiting."
After lunch, I returned to the company and was busy until the evening.
It was a little after six but not yet seven when Alice Wen prepared to get off work.
She checked her mailbox before leaving, and couldn't help but click on the email that Mr. Pei sent her last week.
The night breeze in early May, carrying the faint scent of flowers and plants, blows past my face, lazy and long.
Alice Wen walked quickly back to the community. When she took the elevator upstairs, she looked at herself in the mirror-like elevator door and saw that her lips were a little mottled. She took out the lipstick, put some on her fingertips, and gently applied it on her lips.
Alice Wen opened the door and stepped into the porch. Before she took off her shoes, she suddenly froze and took a deep breath uncontrollably.
The bright light from the room poured out, and along with the light, there came waves of warm and mouth-watering aroma of food.
[Well done. The project team will notify you as soon as there is a job demand]
It should be soon.
Alice Wen heard a few days ago that a development engineer of "Under the Dawn" was about to resign, and that position was a perfect match for her.
After closing the computer, tidying up the desk, Alice Wen got up and prepared to go home.
Emma Zhu sat across from her. When she heard the voice, she raised her head suddenly: "You left so early today? Do you have anything to do tonight?" "What are you praising me for?" Noah Yun raised his eyebrows, and said with interest, "Tell me about it."
Alice Wen pretended to recall the past, and after a long while, she sighed softly: "I'm sorry."
"I was envious of you, but suddenly I can't remember it."
