"Sign a confidentiality agreement," Xiao Qing said.

He Shiying frantically scribbled words on her palm, then made a shoveling motion into her mouth: "Absolutely keep this a secret!"

"Forget about the confidentiality agreement. Wouldn't signing it make it easier to be exposed?" Qin Yunchu said. "Everyone just needs to be careful to keep the secret."

Gu Yuanzhen, holding her chin, suddenly said, "President Qin, may I visit your company tomorrow?"

"what?"

He Shiying's eyes lit up, and she said, "Can I come to your company too?"

Qin Yun Chu was a little stunned: "This..."

Xiao Qing sneered: "Going to visit the company? I'm more like going to visit Chen Ya's... Can I come along too?"

Qin Yun Chu wiped the sweat from her brow and said, "Is this really okay...?"

Gu Yuanzhen patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely not expose him. I just feel... I misunderstood him before, and I feel a little bad about it. I want to go and apologize."

He Shiying also said with sparkling eyes, "Yes, it's definitely not because I want to meet my idol."

Xiao Qing nodded: "I definitely didn't mean to seduce him."

Qin Yunchu was embarrassed: "What kind of nonsense is this?"

He Shiying hugged her arm and shook it: "Please!"

"If you're visiting as a business visitor, that can be arranged."

"Great!"

……

Chen Ya looked at his phone, which he had finally managed to charge with a power bank, opened the group chat, and frowned.

He couldn't keep up with the pace of the group chat. The older women in the group were all talking about how to punish Liu Chenmin.

He was a little confused.

Isn't Liu Chenmin doing just fine? What did Liu Chenmin do to them?

The waiter brought the baking tray to the table, and Wang Qian shouted excitedly:

"Let's eat skewers!"

Chen Ya turned off his phone and picked up a lamb skewer.

While eating skewers, Lao Tang said, "When I was in college, I had a roommate who was allergic to lamb. He would swell up as soon as he ate it, and his face would swell up like a panda."

Wang Qian said in a sympathetic tone, "Does that mean we'll never be able to eat lamb skewers again?"

“On the contrary,” Old Tang said, “we take him with us every time we go out for skewers.”

"why?"

“If his face is swollen, it’s definitely real mutton. The more swollen it is, the more authentic the mutton is,” Old Tang said.

"You guys are so mean."

The beer was served, and Old Tang popped open three bottles in quick succession, then held up one bottle and said:

"We're all brothers, so let's not be so formal. Let's just drink straight from the bottle, everyone."

Wang Qian prompted, "There are other sisters too."

“And sisters.”

Chen Ya raised the bottle: "Cheers!"

"cheers!"

The three bottles intersected in mid-air, making a crisp sound.

Old Tang took a sip and let out a loud burp.

"Working hard, working hard, all I do every day is burp, and that's enough for me. I feel like I'm living just to let out this sigh of relief."

“Indeed,” Chen Ya agreed.

Wang Qian said with a smile, "We owe a lot to Brother Chen Ya today, otherwise we might have been struggling for a long time."

Old Tang exclaimed exaggeratedly, "Today? Every single day is thanks to him! Old Chen, right, Old Chen?"

Chen Ya nudged him: "Is that even a question?"

"You're getting all worked up over me for being fat."

Wang Qian's expression suddenly changed, and she lowered her head and whispered, "Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit, holy shit!"

"What's wrong?" Old Tang also looked down.

"I saw my best friend!" Wang Qian exclaimed in horror.

"My best friend? Should I invite her to come eat with us?"

"No, it's the reverse kind of best friend!" Wang Qian stopped Lao Tang. "My college roommate, she doesn't care about me when things are good, but I take the blame when things are bad. If I'm strong, she gets jealous, and if she's strong, she shows off like crazy. The kind of best friend we can't live without."

Old Tang was astonished: "Women's relationships are really complicated."

Wang Qian whispered to Chen Ya, "Chen Ya, if she finds out about me, can you pretend to be my boyfriend?"

"Why?" Chen Ya was taken aback.

"She recently got a boyfriend, and I need to prevent her from showing off in front of me!"

Old Tang was taken aback: "Then why didn't you ask me to do it?"

Wang Qian glanced at him: "If you pretend, won't she laugh even harder?"

"Damn!" Old Tang took a big bite of mutton.

"Hey! Isn't this our little Qianqian? What a coincidence!"

Before she arrived, her voice preceded her, followed by a fragrant breeze. A woman in red ran over and sat down next to Wang Qian, putting her arm around her shoulder.

"Long time no see!"

Behind the woman was a well-dressed man.

"your friend?"

"My best friend!" the woman said happily.

The opposite kind. Everyone silently added this in their minds.

Chapter 65 Feeling Disgusted

Wang Qian gave a forced smile and, pointing weakly at her friend who was facing away from her, said to everyone:

"My best friend, Luo Rong."

Luo Rong, with her heavily made-up face, looked quite cheerful, excitedly grabbing Wang Qian's hand:

"Xiaoqian! It's been so long since I've seen you. Are you still as innocent and charming as you were in college, popular with the boys? I bet you've come true by all the bold words you made back then!"

These words sounded like a casual reminiscence, but were actually barbed and sarcastic, making Wang Qian feel as uncomfortable as if she had swallowed a fly. She could only stand there and laugh foolishly, wanting to cry but having no tears in her heart.

Luo Rong pointed to the boy behind her and said, "Xiaoqian, you know, it's better to be lucky than early. Let me introduce you to my boyfriend, Ma Wei. You can give him your opinion."

Wang Qianren was almost fainting: "How can I help you choose? You've been dating for years..."

Luo Rong looked surprised: "What do you mean you've been dating for years? I only met him today!"

Old Tang was holding a skewer, about to eat, when he heard her say that, and suddenly felt a button crack open in his worldview.

Ma Wei, being very tactful, moved a stool and sat down next to Luo Rong, saying:

"Since we get along so well, let's share a table and eat. I'll just have to accept Rongrong's best friend's test."

When Wang Qian heard the name "Rongrong," she secretly stuck out her tongue, feeling like she was about to conceive.

Ma Wei extended his left hand, snapped his fingers twice in the air, and his sleeve slid down to reveal a Rolex watch on his wrist:

"waiter!"

He pointed at the waiter and drew a large circle on the menu for the grilled skewers with his finger:

"These, all of them, 5 of each, add more if needed."

After saying that, he picked up a skewer of grilled food from the table and said with a smile, "It's a street food stall, the more people there are, the better it tastes."

In just a few words, he exuded the air of a host; anyone who didn't know better would think he was the one treating everyone.

The three people who were sitting at the table chatting happily have now become like guests.

Luo Rong hugged Ma Wei's arm and said to Wang Qian with a smile:

"This is my boyfriend whom I just met today. He has a master's degree from the University of Finance and Economics, lives in Zishan District, and owns an apartment and a row of shops in Dongshankou. How about that? Doesn't it sound like he's bragging?"

Ma Wei, with his head bowed and eyes downcast, tidied up the signatures on the table, pushed all the tissues to the center of the table, and said:

"What bragging? My family runs a small business to make a living."

Wang Qian knew why Ma Rong had specifically asked her to oversee the selection process.

What kind of oversight? They're clearly just putting on an act in front of me!

Her eyes darted around, and she said, "Oh, what about that boyfriend you were dating all college?"

Luo Rong waved her hand and said, "What you're talking about is ancient history. Back then, I was young and ignorant, just playing around, I didn't even touch her."

Wang Qian wanted to roll her eyes.

She never even touched him? In her four years of university, the time she spent sleeping in her own bed was less than the time cockroaches crawled on her bed!

When she collects the mattress after graduation, the mattress probably whispers in her ear, "I don't know you!"

"You're not..."

Just as she was about to expose Luo Rong's lie, Luo Rong suddenly asked, "Are you at Hongtu now? How's the pay at Hongtu? Is life good?"

Wang Qian changed the subject: "The benefits are great. Including bonuses, it's almost 10,000 yuan a month. Meals are all included, and there are snacks to eat. The company also has a rest area. The benefits are top-notch."

Ma Wei smiled and said, "As expected of Hongtu, a big company is different."

Luo Rong then asked, "So where do you usually live?"

"Rent a place? There are affordable apartments nearby that are close to the company, and the commute is only 20 minutes."

Wang Qian blushed slightly and patted Chen Ya next to her with a bold gesture, saying:

"This is my boyfriend. We go to and from get off work together every day, and it's pretty... nice."

She originally wanted to show off more, but she was too embarrassed to say so, so she swallowed it.

Luo Rong looked Chen Ya up and down in surprise and said, "Wow, your boyfriend is quite handsome!"

At this moment, everyone was united in their hatred of the enemy, and Old Tang also put his arm around Chen Ya and said:

"Chen Ya is not only handsome, but also a talented person. He can compose poems and write couplets... well, he's a master of literature."

"Pfft!" Ma Wei was drinking water and couldn't help but spit it out.

Old Tang glared at him angrily: "What? You don't believe me?"

Ma Wei wiped his mouth and said, "No, no, I believe you, I believe you. May I ask where you have published your work?"

Chen Ya drank his water in silence.

"Don't be shy, I'm also good at literature, we can exchange ideas."

Chen Ya put the cup on the table and said, "There's nothing to talk about regarding literature. Wang Qian's best friend, where do you work?"

Luo Rong grinned: "Me? I just got a job in Hongtu's business department, and I'll be starting work at Hongtu tomorrow."

"Huh?" Wang Qian lost her grip on the cup and it fell to the ground.

Luo Rong patted Ma Wei on the shoulder and said, "He was also interviewed in the same batch as me, so we met. We spent a day together, and we got along very well, so we decided to give it a try."

Old Tang's forehead was covered in sweat, and his hand holding the meat skewers was trembling.

After that, the meal became a grand show of Ma Wei's eloquent and erudite pronouncements, with only Luo Rong occasionally bursting into unrestrained laughter.

Ma Wei was speaking directly to Chen Ya, who would sometimes nod, pretending to listen, but in reality, he was lost in thought.

After the event ended, the three of them walked out together, feeling extremely uncomfortable.
