32 Melodrama.
At the same time, he frowned at Mu Yuexin and said, "I know you are Miss Li's friend but you don't need to sit with her. Go and help out with others and cater to Miss Li's needs."
Li Yi and Mu Yuexin exchanged a few glances. Even though Mu Yuexin was on leave, despite knowing that he still behaved like a superior and rude.
Li Yi furrowed her eyes and said gently, "Right now, she is your guest just like me! Not to say she isn't wearing her uniform. Gege, you may have misunderstood…"
"Oh, my bad." He replied with embarrassment.
…
Manager Hu felt humiliated in the next few hours as he had to serve the person he had been commanding for the past few days. Mu Yuexin also treated him like air and enjoyed her food alongside Li Yi.
While on the other end, Li Yi was more interested in ordering and making Manager Hu work as he did to her babe.
She accidentally knocked down the orange juice glass and the thing shattered right when it made contact with the ground, right beside her feet, the glass pieces scattered all over the floor.
"Oops. My hand slipped." Li Yi said with a painful expression behind that evil smirk of hers, and turned to Manager Hu, "Hu Gege, right? Can you clean it for me? I am scared it will hurt me."
Hearing Li Yi's sweet voice, the dissatisfaction Manager Hu was feeling vanished. But still, he said gently, "That's not my job, miss Li. Let me call someone for you."
"Oh, then call Bo Wan. Let her help me remove the shreds." Li Yi blinked her eyes innocently. On the other side, Mu Yuexin was on the verge of laughing as she saw his conflicted appearance.
"Why isn't she here yet? Didn't you tell her we are here?" Li Yi gently creased her eyebrows. Manager Hu felt guilty for no reason.
"Doesn't she want to see us?!" Li Yi looked aggrieved as if her heart was hurt by her most trusted friend.
"I will bring her right away." Manager Hu hurriedly said and turned back. As he left the room, Mu Yuexin poked Li Yi's arm.
"What?" Li Yi asked without looking at Mu Yuexin while cutting the steak like a pro. Her pinky was up as she put a little piece in her mouth.
'Not good.' She thought the urge to spit was a lot.
"He is interested in you." Mu Yuexin whispered.
"If you can see it, can't I?" Li Yi confessed indifferently. Mu Yuexin did not know whether to cry or laugh at her frankness. 'Was she deliberately acting coquettish?'
…
When Bo Wan entered, she was a bit uneasy under Li Yi's cat eyes. She saw both Mu Yuexin and Li Yi staring at her for no reason. Watching them in the seats with very expensive dishes in their front, Bo Wan was again reminded of the difference between Li Yi and herself.
Her so-called boyfriend never let her eat those even though he was the Manager. In the past, he used to say that she should not eat those or she would become fat. But the real reason, she had finally discovered that day.
"Li Yi, you two are here, where is your brother?" Bo Wan asked in a gentle and sweet voice. Li Yi, who was going to put down the juice glass, felt the urge to spray the juice from her mouth on Bo Wan's face.
One was interested in her while the other was interested in her brother… Li Yi sneered as she picked up a tissue to gently wipe her cherry-colored lips.
"Bo Wan dear, my brother is very busy unlike me, a lazy person. How can he accompany me every day?!" Li Yi said exasperatedly.
As Manager Hu sharply glanced at Bo Wan with a knowing look, she hurriedly said, "That's true. By the way, why am I called here?"
"Ah, I nearly forgot. You should come and see! I accidentally broke a glass. I am afraid that someone will be hurt by this. Can you come and clean it for me?" Li Yi asked and then added, "Pretty please?"
Hearing her, Bo Wan turned to Manager Hu and thought, 'Did he bring me here for this?!'
She glanced at Mu Yuexin who was staring at her phone screen and asked, "You want me to do this?"
"Yes. I don't want anybody to touch me except my close ones. You are also one of my classmates, in fact a close friend. Can you do it for me, please?"
Blink! Blink!
Li Yi acted like a sweet being that even Mu Yuexin was shocked.
Manager Hu also joined and said at that time, "Bo Wan, don't just stand there. Help Miss Li. As a friend, you should not hesitate to help her."
As Bo Wan looked at him in disbelief. The other person glared at her and motioned her to do what Li Yi wanted.
'This bitches!' Bo Wan cursed at Mu Yuexin and Li Yi in her mind. It was not heeded to say that they had come to mess with her. But she was not someone to fall for them either!
She firmly shook her head at Li Yi and stuttered, "Yiyi, wh… what if I get hurt b… by the glass shreds?!"
"Use gloves then." Li Yi murmured and asked with confusion, "Don't you have gloves here?"
As Li Yi turned to Mu Yuexin, the other party nodded her head.
"We have high quality gloves, don't worry. Bo Wan would not get injured." Mu Yuexin assured her.
Bo Wan clenched her hands and suddenly yelled at them, "You can't bully the poor! Li Yi, I know you look down on me because I am not rich like you!"
"?!" Li Yi.
"What?!" Mu Yuexin.
Then Bo Wan turned at her boyfriend and suddenly slapped him.
Pah!
The fried chicken Mu Yuexin just picked by her chopsticks dropped back on the plate as she saw Manager Hu get slapped. Even though she was shocked her lips went up.
Watching the stunned Manager Hu and his newly bruised face, Mu Yuexin thought the sadness she felt for the past few days lessened a bit.
"Hu Gege, how can you join them and insult me?! We are over! Sob~" Right after slapping her dear boyfriend, Bo Wan dashed out of the private dining room with crocodile tears in her eyes.
Li Yi, who had thought of using suppression on this pair of boyfriend and girlfriend, frowned. She did not like that her plan was ruined by Bo Wan's melodrama. Right after Bo Wan left, Manager Hu seemed to have woken up from a trance.
"No! We are not over! You can't do this, Bo Wan!" The man also followed her out however as he looked around in the corridor, he did not see the figure.
So the two people were left behind but they were not bothered by it at all. Watching Manager Hu getting slapped worth a few grains so that was okay.
…
After Li Yi and Mu Yuexin were done eating, Mu Yuexin volunteered to pay the bill. Li Yi did not object and happily agreed. Even though Mu Yuexin felt stifled by spending that much, to her it was worth it because she got to witness Manager Hu's miserable love.
As sympathy, she tipped him the amount that was deducted from her salary in the past. Manager Hu was surprised when Mu Yuexin paid. He was more shocked when he found the resignation letter with the tip.
Instantly he fell silent. That tip money looked very unpleasant and stinging.
…
"My babe is so rich! Can you make me your sugar baby?!" Li Yi blinked her eyes coquettishly and asked after they exited the restaurant.
"Not a chance." Mu Yuexin replied. After quitting that toxic job, she felt refreshed. Both of them went back to the Li family later.
At night, Mu Yuexin did her part of the research and searched for information related to Ethan Han alongside the information provided by Han Boyaung. Surprisingly she didn't find a single thread on the internet.
'Weird! Shouldn't there be at least a photo of him on the official website of the company? Sir Fan also did not provide a photo.' In the dead of the night Mu Yuexin thought in confusion and searched to nothingness.
Every company would have several photos and it was a given that the young kings who would inherit the family business would be shown more.
However, besides the photo of the young man of the Han family, Han Yijun, she did not find a single trace of the eldest one. In the end, she had to leave it at that and go back to sleep.
When Li Yi felt the place beside her sink, she opened her groggy eyes and whispered, "Good night, Yuexin."
"Good night." Both of them whispered however the whole night Mu Yuexin could not fall asleep. She tossed and turned but even she did not know where the sudden anxiety came from.
Thus the next day, when Li Yi woke up, she saw a puffy face and eye bags under Mu Yuexin's eyes. Li Yi couldn't stop grinning when she saw it.
