Love So Sweet

After she came back from going out with her friend that day, Zhang Li Xue has been thinking about Bai Qi and what she might feel about him.

However, the more that Bai Qi appeared in her mind, the more that Zhang Li Xue would feel strange.

There was this feeling that made her heart grow warmer. It felt as if her heart was going to burst anytime soon if she did not stop thinking about him.

Zhang Li Xue had to admit that she was attracted to Bai Qi.

However, as for how far she liked him, this was something that she still haven’t figured out.

Would this feeling fade after some time, or will it continue to grow?

Was it only an admiration or something more?

Heaving a sigh, Zhang Li Xue reached for her phone and looked at it for a long time.

.....

A few days have passed since the day they go out together. Bai Qi had only called her once and that was only to let Bai Xi Xi talk to her.

She had bought some hair clips for that little girl and Bai Xi XI wanted to thank her for them.

Later, Bai Qi has been so quiet.

She understood that he should be busy with his work. As a doctor and surgeon, there was a lot of work for him to do. Moreover, with his position, he still has to work very hard.

Zhang Li Xue had once heard her Auntie Yun Shu complaining about her Uncle Qi Zheng’s hectic schedule when she was young.

It seemed that her uncle only stopped being too busy after he grew older.

Zhang Li Xue continued to look at her phone again, wondering what she should do.

She kind of wanted to see Bai Qi again and verified what she felt for him.

If he did not contact her, she could be the one to take the initiative, right?

Then, should she go over and visit him at the hospital later?

“Li Xue, this should be your last week in this department, right?”

A voice snapped her out of her trance.

Zhang Li Xue looked up and saw that her colleague was looking at her. She put down her phone at the side and nodded. “Mmm... I guess so. But, it wasn’t like we wouldn’t be able to see each other again.”

“That’s true. But where would you go after this?”

Zhang Li Xue thought of her conversation with her father a few weeks ago. Her father had asked her about her experience in the HR Department. Later, it was decided that her time in this department should end and she would be transferred to another department to train.

“Mmm... I should be going to sales and marketing.”

When she transferred to the sales and marketing department next, it was expected that she was going to stay there for a while.

“It sounded like you’re going to be busier after this,” the colleague said. A thought came to her mind and her eyes lit up. “Hey, since you’re going to be away, how about we had a farewell dinner with everyone else. Later, when you got busier, it would be hard to meet up again.”

Zhang Li Xue considered the suggestion and nodded. “Sure.”

The female colleague turned away and started to discuss with everyone about dinner.

After discussing with everyone, it was decided that the farewell dinner will take place today.

Their manager heard about the farewell party and told everyone that it was going to be her treat. However, since she will have to attend a short course starting tomorrow, it was decided that they will all gather for dinner after work.

Zhang Li Xue texted her mother that she was not going to have dinner at home. Then, she stared at her phone, feeling a little disappointed that she would not be able to meet Bai Qi.

Knowing that they were going to have a big feast after work, everyone in the department began to work hard.

The department gathered and headed to the hot pot restaurant that their manager had booked a while ago.

Everyone was chatting happily while enjoying the food and drinks. The atmosphere was very lively.

Zhang Li Xue has been with the HR Department for half a year and they could not bear to part with her.

Initially, they had thought that the president’s daughter would be someone hard to get along with. However, they were clearly mistaken. The president’s daughter was not as arrogant as they thought she would be.

After working with her for a few weeks, they found out that she was a cheery person and easy to get along with. Because of this, everyone was a little unwilling to see her transferring away.

Fortunately, they would still be able to see each other at the hotel.

Zhang Li Xue picked up a few meat slices as she listened to a few of her colleagues gossiping about the kitchen’s staff.

A few of her colleagues come over to toast her with a drink. However, Zhang Li Xue could only change it to tea. Because of her mother, Zhang Li Xue and her brother did not drink alcohol.

It was said that her mother had an elder brother. However, he passed away after an accident with a drunk driver.

After drinking too much tea, Zhang Li Xue excused herself to go to visit the restroom.

She spent a few minutes in the restroom and finally come out again. Just as she was heading back to the private room, her gaze fell on someone familiar.

The man turned around and their gazes met.

Mu Zhen Yu spoke a few words with his friends before he walked over in her direction.

“Xiao Li Xue?” Mu Zhen Yu smiled. “Why are you here?”

“I had dinner with a few of my colleagues.” Zhang Li Xue glanced at a few men behind Mu Zhen Yu and spoke, “Are you here to entertain a few clients?”

“Mmm... We had a business discussion. Do you need a ride back?”

“It’s alright. I drive over.”

“Then, you need to be careful.” Mu Zhen Yu still remembered that Zhang Li Xue had an accident not too long ago.

“I know.”

Mu Zhen Yu hesitated before he spoke again, “I’ve been wanting to call you, but recently, I’ve been busy with work.”

“Brother Zhen Yu, it’s not easy for you to start a company. I know that you will have to work hard for the first few years. It’s natural that you would be busy.”

His lips curled into a smile. “Will you be busy this weekend? I have two movie tickets to watch that new action movie. Do you want to go with me?”

Zhang Li Xue thought of the matter that Mu Zhen Yu wanted to tell her previously and thought that he would want to talk about it. “Alright.”

Mu Zhen Yu heaved a breath of relief. “Then, I will text you with the details later.”
