On Monday, Shu Pan arrived at work on time. When she returned to the company, she felt a sense of unfamiliarity, but she was in urgent need of work at this moment.

The workplace was like this. After leaving for a period of time, she felt that she could not keep up with the pace.

“Sister Shu, you’re finally back. That’s great,” the assistant Lu Xiaoran exclaimed joyfully when she saw Shu Pan.

“What’s going on?” Shu Pan was puzzled by her reaction.

“Sister Shu, you don’t know. During the time you were on leave, a new designer joined the company named MO Qing. She has a flirtatious appearance, and she caused a sensation in the entire company on her first day. Now, she’s on the same level as you, and it seems like the boss values her a lot. She’s been entrusted with all the important projects. I heard she came back after studying abroad,” Lu Xiaoran said, sounding a bit indignant.

Why was that? She just couldn’t stand MO Qing’s hypocritical behavior – all soft and charming in front of male colleagues, showing off her charms, but always bossy and domineering towards her, acting like she’s superior.

“Oh, that’s good then. It shows she’s capable, which is why she’s given important tasks,” Shu Pan said with a puzzled look. There are many competent people in the company, and having them demonstrates the company’s growth and ability to attract talent.

“Sister Shu, the key point is that you’re about to be replaced, and you act like you don’t care at all,” Lu Xiaoran said indignantly.

“Well, what can I do? It’s not like I can control the fact that I’m not as skilled as her,” Shu Pan replied, feeling that this wasn’t something she could change.

“Ah, I knew you would say that. Right now, she’s in the boss’s office. Later, she’ll be meeting an important client. You’ll see then,” Lu Xiaoran said with a touch of frustration.

Shu Pan smiled and returned to her seat.

After a while, a figure surrounded by several company executives entered. It was a tall and straight figure, dressed in a suit, with a confident stride.

As he came closer, Shu Pan was stunned. It was actually Su Yuan. Since their last encounter, they hadn’t been in touch due to an unspoken understanding. Shu Pan comforted herself that she owed him money and favors, and she would gradually repay them. She hadn’t expected to see him again so soon, and in the company of all places.

Shu Pan had always known that Su Yuan was an exceptionally handsome individual. She had learned that during her university days, otherwise, he wouldn’t have monopolized the title of “campus heartthrob” for all four years.

Shu Pan had been captivated by his handsome face for a long time; she never tired of looking at it.

However, this face had also brought her the most painful hurt.

Now their situation was that they had broken up, but they were still friends. Actually, she used to find such a situation laughable, but the fact was Su Yuan had helped her during her most difficult times. She couldn’t be ungrateful and deny their past.

She took a deep breath, smiled ahead, and looked straight ahead. Obviously, Su Yuan had already spotted her and was heading in her direction.

“Pan, it’s been a while,” Su Yuan couldn’t help but greet her.

“Yeah, it’s been good,” Shu Pan nodded.

“Mr. Su, I didn’t realize you know Shu Pan,” the director He Guoping said with surprise.

“Yeah, Shu Pan and I were classmates,” Su Yuan explained.

“That’s great. I didn’t expect the world to be so small. It’s nice to run into each other like this,” He Guoping thought to himself with satisfaction. With this relationship, this cooperation seemed even more hopeful.

“You go ahead, we’ll talk later,” Su Yuan said, noticing that it was work hours and not the right setting for an extended conversation.

“Okay,” Shu Pan nodded.

Shu Pan returned to her seat, but in her heart, she hoped that she wouldn’t have to work late tonight and that she wouldn’t come home too late. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if Gu Shaoting came home and there was no food for him..
