Chapter 326 - 259: So Sweet, So Sweet

"Don’t you think these Cola Chicken Wings are a bit too sweet?"

"I guess they are! It’s late, you shouldn’t eat these. You’ll just have to get on the treadmill later. This Sour Radish and Old Duck Soup is good, though. It’s light and refreshing, not greasy at all. You can have more of this."

"It is good! Speaking of which, I was eating seafood every day in Cambodia. It was either just boiled, in curry, or grilled. I felt like I was about to get gout."

"While you were gone, I was too lazy to go home, so I just stayed at the office. For convenience, I’ve just been eating at the company cafeteria. The chef changes the menu daily, and there are even special meals for when we work late. It’s pure bliss."

"With a great boss like you, I almost want to apply for a job myself."

"I’m alright, I’m alright. There’s still room for improvement. But if you really want to join, you don’t need to apply. I’ve had the position of ’lady boss’ saved for you for a long time."

"Pfft! Even with all this delicious food, I can’t shut you up! It’s not like I want the position!"

"You’re the one who said you wanted to join, and now you’re backing out. You’re making things so hard for me!"

...

After Sang Yuan got off work, the two happily found a restaurant, chatting as they ate dinner.

Little did they know, Weibo was buzzing with activity again.

It started in the evening when someone who had been there posted a video:

[I’m shipping this so hard! I was there, and this couple is painfully sweet! Video link.]

[Sister Bing just wrapped her movie and she’s already checking up on him? Hahaha! Disguising herself as a delivery person to give her boyfriend flowers, who taught her that move? She looks a little clumsy, which is kind of adorkable.]

[Sobbing, she’s so unreasonably beautiful! She looks good even in that outfit! So vibrant and full of energy, it makes her look so young!]

[Pfft~ @TuanTuanDelivery, remember to pay up. This is a free endorsement!]

[I’m dying of jealousy! Sister Bing’s man is just too awesome! She was wrapped up like a ball, and he recognized her in a single glance! He just shouted ’Wifey!’ and ran right over, not even afraid of getting the wrong person!]

[Seriously, when the video started, I was so nervous for him. If he’d gotten it wrong, it would’ve been instant social death! But it turns out, a big shot is a big shot for a reason. His eyes are like rulers. I was worrying for nothing.]

[Besides ’I’d recognize you even if you were turned to ash,’ there’s also President Sang’s #LockedOnWithLove#! Waaaah! My ship is sailing!]

[Sister Bing gave her man red roses, looked like ninety-nine of them? And she tucked a jewelry box inside the bouquet. What era’s trend is this? So innocent and pure, haha~]

[Can you two please just get married on the spot? This couple must be locked together forever! Ahhh! This is the first time I’ve shipped a CP so hard my teeth ache! How can they be so sweet?]

[Um, let me just say this quietly, please don’t flame me. Isn’t Sang Yuan a little lovestruck? He saw his girlfriend and just abandoned his business partner.]

[Aww, missy upstairs, you don’t need to wonder. Our boss is totally lovestruck. The whole company knows.]

It wasn’t just the netizens who were excited; the employees who witnessed the PDA up close were even more thrilled!

[Hasn’t anyone noticed something about our company’s name?]

[There’s no need to force a connection, right? Yuan Yan Venture Capital has been around for over a decade. How old was Ni Bingyan back then?]

[Let me drop a secret scoop. Our boss specially founded an asset management company with only one client: Miss Ni. So the whole ’lovestruck’ thing is real, stop doubting it!]

[Oh my god! More scoops, please! I need my sugar fix!]

[I never thought the elites at Yuan Yan Venture Capital would be such gossips. As a finance major, my pristine image of them has been shattered into a million pieces.]

[Uh, isn’t gossiping about the boss more interesting than making money?]

[I give up, I give up. You big shots, hurry up and spill more tea! Ignore them.]

[People are actually begging for a front-row seat to PDA these days? Fine, I’ll indulge you.]

[The first time Miss Ni came to the company, she wore high heels that went CLACK CLACK CLACK as she walked. It was very awkward. Our boss immediately had the office carpeted. The second time Miss Ni came, she deliberately wore soft-soled shoes. The moment she walked in and saw the carpet, she couldn’t help but laugh. [9 photos of the company]]

[After the boss was no longer single, our company added a new rule—if you’re in a relationship, you can bring your partner to the office to experience a day in our work life.]

[Old Cui from the logistics department can practically read our boss’s mind. I bet by tomorrow, all the employees’ families will get a notification that if they want to surprise their significant other, they can contact the company for assistance.]

[Pfft~ The boss’s girlfriend got stopped outside today. Old Cui has to find a way to make up for it, right?]

[Oh my god! What kind of god-tier company is this? The benefits are so good, and it’s so considerate!]

[Yuan Yan Venture Capital cordially invites all aspiring youths to join us! For resume submissions, please see the pinned post on my homepage.]

The internet was in an uproar, and Yuan Yan Venture Capital’s official Weibo account took the opportunity to jump in and make its presence known.

It had to be said, ever since the boss started dating an actress, the company’s public profile had reached a whole new level. Even HR had a much wider pool of candidates to choose from.

[Everyone, be rational. The reason this company’s benefits are so good is because their standards are sky-high! Their hiring process is stricter than the Emperor choosing his concubines. *Sobs* I can’t... it’s a story full of tears.]

[Person above, can you elaborate? What are the requirements?]

[Let’s not get into everything, but just the most basic requirement is a master’s degree, and it has to be from a top-three university.]

...

Everyone was having a blast, and before anyone knew it, a topic was pushed to the top of the trending list.

#LockedOnWithLove#

The True Love Challenge: Can you lock onto your special someone in a crowd with just one glance?

People these days love to follow trends. As soon as something gets popular online, others quickly start doing the same thing.

This was especially true for something that tested the authenticity of a couple’s feelings; the number of people jumping on the bandwagon was countless.

Sang Yuan could recognize a completely bundled-up Ni Bingyan in a crowd with a single glance. Could your special someone do the same?

Time to test it out~

If they recognize you, it’s true love. If they don’t... well, who wouldn’t have a few complaints?

Ni Bingyan probably never imagined that her romantic gesture for Sang Yuan would end up starting a social trend.

After dinner, the two went to see a movie. By the time they picked up their dog and got home, it was almost eleven o’clock.

The dog was feeling very slighted that she had been gone on business for so long. Ni Bingyan couldn’t console it no matter how much she tried, so she held it and gently brushed its fur with a comb.

Brushing the dog’s fur with one hand, she picked up her phone with the other to check her work schedule and saw an endorsement offer from Wei Shuojie.

"TuanTuan Delivery, delivering everything fast?"

COUGH, COUGH, COUGH!

Ni Bingyan nearly choked on her own saliva!

She called Wei Shuojie, who couldn’t help but laugh the moment he heard her voice:

"You’re amazing, my dear Little Bingbing! Other celebrities have to rack their brains for publicity stunts to make money, but you’re different. All I have to do is give you a vacation, and I can take one too, because you’ve already done all my work for me."

’An endorsement for a delivery platform isn’t very risky. The work is simple, the pay is pretty good, and her schedule allows for it. It really is a great job to be happy about.’

Ni Bingyan felt a little embarrassed, but she couldn’t help but laugh.

"I don’t get it either. I’m just living my life normally, so why do so many people pay attention? It’s probably just businesses creating hype, and I just happened to get caught up in it."

"Major fame depends on fate; minor fame depends on luck. Some people can never get popular no matter how much they’re promoted, while others attract attention no matter what they do. It’s just one of those inexplicable things."

After sighing with emotion, Wei Shuojie started arranging her upcoming work.

"Tomorrow you have to meet with the variety show team; filming is about to start. Don’t take the training lightly. You have to be diligent. If you don’t meet the requirements, there are plenty of people waiting to take your place."

When it came to business, Ni Bingyan’s tone became serious too. "Don’t worry about work. I will absolutely not drop the ball."

"I’m not really worried about that aspect. You just have to remember to be careful during training. You absolutely cannot get injured."

"Don’t worry, I’m experienced!"
