Where was he serious?

Liang Xian sensed her gaze and lifted his eyes. Before he could say anything, Ming Si had already darted away.

He chuckled, shaking his head, and temporarily focused his attention back on the documents in front of him.

Ming Si's design draft was finished before Liang Xian's video conference ended. She didn't want to go over to find him. After being caught just now, it would seem like she was overly eager to see him if she went running over.

So, she stretched lazily and leaned back in her chair, unlocking her phone.

In a small group chat, someone tagged her. Ming Si clicked into it and immediately saw a row of exclamation marks and an emoticon of I'm very angry.

Without needing to think, she knew it was Cheng Yu.

She swiped up to read the messages.

Cheng Yu:「I have some sad news to share with everyone: The Vice President of the branch had a car accident and might need to amputate. 😱」

When Ming Si saw this message, she was utterly confused. While it was unfortunate... it seemed unrelated to them?

Cheng Yu:「My dad wants me to start working early. I haven't even celebrated New Year's yet.」

Cheng Yu:「You won't see me the day after tomorrow.」

Cheng Yu:「This afternoon, I was forced to get a hairstyle that's incredibly ugly but supposedly very successful.」

Cheng Yu:「Selfie.jpg」

Cheng Yu:「?」

Cheng Yu:「Where are you guys!!」

Cheng Yu:「@Ming Si, you have time to post on your Moments but not to reply to me. I guess I'm no longer your beloved Yu Yu!」

The following messages were a barrage of emojis.

Just as Ming Si finished reading, a message from Yu Chuan came in:「Just left the library.」

He was nearing graduation, and with his thesis and experiments piled up, he was busy day and night, leaving him with little time to read group messages.

Cheng Yu:「Beware of going bald!!」

Yu Chuan:「...」

He had initially intended to console Cheng Yu by saying the hairstyle was okay, but now he put his phone away without expression and didn't look at it again.

A while later, Ke Lijie chimed in too:「What big thing happened that woke me up?」

He had probably just come across Cheng Yu's new hairstyle and typed a comment:「Wow, with this suit, you look like an insurance salesman.」

Cheng Yu:「...」

Cheng Yu:「I'm ending our friendship!」

Ming Si added fuel to the fire:「He does look like an insurance salesman.」

Cheng Yu began to provoke everyone:「Ming Si, you went to Venice for vacation, right? What's with the stuff you posted on your Moments?」

Ming Si:「What stuff? Watch your wording.」

Cheng Yu:「Bring me a few things back; I'll reluctantly forgive you.」

Ming Si:「Dream on.」

Cheng Yu:「I'm getting transferred to the branch, and you're not even a bit sympathetic? I'm obviously no longer your beloved Yu Yu!」
