Chapter 40 is as plain as it gets.
After Xie Qing felt that there was nothing wrong with her body, she started looking through the messages that Sister Ting had sent her.
"Xie Qing, are you awake? How are you feeling?"
"By the way, I've resigned from [Infinite Entertainment], but I have some good news, guess what it is."
"I've started working at [Star Chaser Entertainment]. Now that I'm here, we can be partners again. Boss Huo must have told you, right?"
"Also, all four people who bullied you have been fired from their company. I heard that each of them had their leg broken. [Infinite Entertainment] is on the verge of bankruptcy."
Why aren't you answering? Are you awake?
"???"
"Okay, you're still asleep."
"Remember to message me when you wake up."
"..."
After Xie Qinggang finished reading Sister Ting's message, he immediately received another message from Liu Xin, the boss of [Infinite Entertainment].
"Xie Qing, we've already transferred the penalty money to you, and I've given you all the compensation you were due. This whole thing was definitely my fault. Could you please be lenient and let me off the hook?"
"Xie Qing, please, think about it again. When you signed the contract with the company, they treated you very well. You can't just forget their kindness and do something like this!"
"..."
Xie Qing thought carefully about where the company had treated her well, but after thinking it over, she couldn't find anything.
The person who truly treated him well was his agent, Xiang Yiting, not the company.
Xie Qing replied: "If we're talking about ingratitude, who can compare to you?"
【roll. 】
After sending the message, I immediately blocked the person and started thinking about what he meant by the penalty for breach of contract.
He checked his account and found that he had inexplicably gained 1,300 extra coins.
Xie Qing: !!
Xie Qing: ? ? ?
What's going on? It's only been a day, but it feels like a year has passed. I woke up to find the world turned upside down!
Just as Xie Qing was racking her brains trying to figure it out, there was a knock on the door.
"Young Master Xie, this is Chu Luo."
"Enter."
Chu Luo carried a beautifully packaged box and placed it on a small table to the side, then took out the food items one by one.
Xie Qing glanced around and saw nothing but porridge, well, and some small desserts as well.
But is he a monk? He's so austere, it couldn't be more so.
Noticing Xie Qing's mournful look, Chu Luo explained, "The boss asked me to buy this. He said you can only eat light food right now. But it's from the Imperial Kitchen, so it's quite delicious." As she spoke, she thoughtfully handed Xie Qing a bowl.
"Thank you, Assistant Chu. Have you eaten? There's a lot of porridge here. Would you like a bowl?"
"Thank you, Young Master Xie, I've already eaten." As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Qing heard the other person's stomach rumble.
"..."
Seeing the other person's embarrassed expression, Xie Qing couldn't help but chuckle, "Alright, don't refuse, let's eat together!"
Chu Luo glanced around almost imperceptibly, but not seeing her boss, she finally gave in to her stomach and said, "Then I'll gladly comply."
The two chatted as they ate, and Xie Qing discovered that Chu Luo was a hidden chatterbox with an incredibly vivid inner monologue.
"Young Master Xie, let me tell you, I used to think the boss would end up alone, but I never expected..." I never expected the boss to find a wife while he's still single.
If someone had told him before that the boss could find a wife, he would have punched that person into the wall so hard they couldn't be pried off, and then cursed them for spreading rumors.
Who would have thought that the boss would actually be found?
Xie Qing: "I didn't expect anything."
"I never thought the boss could find someone as good-looking as you."
"My previous boss was a complete workaholic. I thought he was going to spend his whole life working."
Although our company's working hours are 9 to 5 with weekends off, the boss always works overtime until 9 or 10 pm, and he never stops on weekends. Sometimes, when everyone else has left and he's the only one left, the boss just sleeps in the break room.
"However, during the time you were at the company, the boss always left on time, which had never happened before..."
Chu Luo rambled on and on, ending with, "Young Master Xie, remember not to tell the boss."
Xie patted his chest and assured him, "Don't worry, I absolutely won't say a word."
Chu Luo had an inexplicable trust in Xie Qing, and hearing him say this, she felt relieved and slurped down her porridge.
When I looked up again, I saw my boss standing at the bathroom door, looking like he had just finished taking a shower.
"Tingting, come and eat something."
When Xie Qing saw the person come out, he beckoned them over.
Chu Luo sat in a chair, holding a bowl of porridge in her hands, unsure whether to eat it or put it down, glancing at Xie Qing out of the corner of her eye.
Xie Qing blinked. "Why are you looking at me? You eat yours, there's more if you're not full."
Hearing this, Chu Luo decided that she should just eat it! It would be a waste not to finish it.
But when she was eating, her face was almost buried in the bowl.
Huo Yunting walked to the bedside, bent down and wiped the white rice grains stuck to Xie Qing's mouth, saying, "You guys eat first, I'll go next door to change my clothes."
Xie nodded with a light smile, and after watching him leave, his gaze fell on the person who was pretending to be a turtle, and he teased, "Assistant Chu, stop burying yourself, your face is almost in the bowl."
Chu Luo looked miserable. "Young Master Xie, why didn't you say the boss was here?"
Xie Qing looked completely innocent. "You didn't ask either?"
Chu Luo: ......
Oh no, the boss caught me slacking off, and my bonus is going to be gone.
Xie Qing looked on with amusement, "But... what impact will his presence here have?"
Chu Luo looked heartbroken, "Young Master Xie, you don't understand..."
His usual image of being diligent, conscientious, meticulous, focused, and working tirelessly was ruined during this breakfast.
Chu Luo channeled her grief and anger into her appetite, and quickly emptied the large bowl of white porridge in her hand.
Little did he know that his image had already been completely ruined in his daily life, and Huo Yunting knew exactly what kind of person his assistant was.
After Chu Luo finished eating with gusto, she immediately reverted to her professional demeanor, taking out a pen and several documents from her briefcase and handing them to Xie Qing for signature.
Xie Qing: ? ? !
Xie Qing pointed to herself, "This is for me."
Chu Luo was also surprised, "Young Master Xie, hasn't the boss told you yet?"
Xie Qing looked completely bewildered: "What did you say?"
He thought carefully about what his lover had said after he woke up, and well... apart from those perverted things, it seemed like there wasn't much else.
