On Friday, Yang Yi went to work and spent the entire day discussing projects with Li Yan.
He did not ask Li Yan who had said those words. Li Yan, overwhelmed with joy, was busy accepting congratulations from his colleagues and did not notice Yang Yi's cold demeanor.
On Saturday morning, Yang Yi went to Meng Xiao's art studio with snacks recommended by Yang You for "winning over girlfriends", spending his time with Meng Xiao.
The phone constantly rang at ten in the morning, but Yang Yi didn't answer. Meng Xiao was focused on her final assignments and did not care about it.
At eleven, Li Yan quit calling. Instead, Zhao Pingxuan and others filled the role of constant callers, going as far as reaching out on WeChat.
Yang Yi, annoyed by the incessant calls, answered one from Li Yan and answered with "I am accustomed to being with the common folk. The harshness of poverty is too potent. I'm ill-suited to dine in your company" before hanging up and shutting down his phone.
