C14 Birthday Present
But when Su Nuannuan saw the 10: 30 on her phone, she rubbed her eyes in disbelief. Seeing that the number hadn't changed, she wondered if there was something wrong with her phone. She suddenly sat up, got off the bed, and ran to the living room to look at the clock hanging on the wall. Finally, she finally accepted this terrifying fact. She actually slept for twelve hours straight.
Su Nuannuan scratched her hair hard and stomped on the ground a few times in annoyance. She muttered to herself, "Su Nuannuan, are you a pig? You can actually sleep for so long!"
Su Nuannuan thought of the ten thousand words mission today and looked at the time on the wall again. She pursed her lips and quickly turned around to enter the bathroom. She took advantage of the time to brush her teeth and ran to the kitchen with a toothbrush in her mouth to warm the milk and roast the toast.
Then she went back to the bathroom to brush her teeth. She remembered that the egg had not been fried yet. She took the towel and rushed to the kitchen again. She took out an egg from the fridge and heated the frying pan. She poured oil on it and poured the egg down. While she was frying the egg, she quickly washed her face. When the egg came out of the frying pan, she used the extra oil in the frying pan to fry the few slices of bacon that she had just taken out. The bacon was a thin piece, and it would soon be out of the frying pan.
Su Nuannuan placed the toast, fried eggs, and the white porcelain plate of bacon on the tray, and then took out the hot milk from the microwave. In just a few minutes, a nutritious breakfast was ready.
To Su Nuannuan, anything could be done in a hurry. It was just that she had to treat the matter of eating well. It was best to have a little ceremony.
If Su Nuannuan had done this at home previously, she would definitely have been ridiculed by her sister-in-law, Zhou Jing. It was fine if she was scolded once or twice, but she had been scolded too many times. Moreover, her father still had to educate her earnestly. In the end... She did not have such thoughts at all.
Su Nuannuan thought about the two years at home and suddenly realized that she actually lived so simple and crude.
Su Nuannuan, who was focused on eating breakfast, did not notice that there was a pair of eyes in the office building opposite her that saw all of her actions just now.
"Mr Tang, the meeting is about to begin!" The secretary entered the CEO's office and respectfully reported to Tang Yifeng, who was standing in front of the French window.
"Okay, I got it!" Tang Yifeng turned around and casually pointed at a building across from him. "When did the building opposite become a single apartment?"
The secretary looked out the window and replied immediately. " The renovation was completed two months ago. The single apartment's clients were mostly office workers working around here, and it was said to be very popular. Most of the time, the tenants in front of them would refund their rent, but later on, someone would make an appointment. There are also many employees in the Tang's renting here, which can save a lot of work time!"
"Is that so?" Tang Yifeng casually replied and habitually tidied his sleeves. When he turned around and walked out of the office, he ordered, "Prepare a sandwich for me at noon, as long as it's eggs and bacon. Don't add anything else! "
"Yes, Mr Tang!" The secretary behind him was puzzled, but he still answered respectfully.
After Su Warm Man's stomach was full, he finally sat in front of the computer. She clenched her fists and encouraged herself. Today, she must complete this task with more than ten thousand words. Otherwise, if she delayed until the end of the month and could not hand over the script, Hua would definitely kill her.
After making such a gesture, Su Nuannuan took a deep breath and slowly placed her slender fingers on the keyboard. Her eyes stared at the computer screen and entered a state of selflessness.
Until a sudden ringing sound interrupted Su Nuannuan's train of thought. She looked at the number of words on the typing software.
5000 words, and it was only 1 PM now. It seemed that her speed had increased.
Su Nuannuan was in a good mood. She reached out and took the phone that was still ringing. She did not even look carefully at the caller before answering the call.
"Nuannuan, I have something to talk to you about!"
A familiar voice came over, but it made Su Nuannuan take the phone away to look at the caller ID in disbelief. It was actually her sister-in-law, Zhou Jing.
"Sister-in-law, why did you think of calling me? Did something happen at home?"
"No, I'm fine. Can't I call you and chat?"
Su Nuannuan was very clear about Zhou Jing's character. She would never call her if she was free. She called and even spoke so politely. She must have some ulterior motives.
Su Nuannuan looked at the time at the bottom right corner of the computer screen. She did not want to waste time on this meaningless conversation.
"Sister-in-law, it is my time to work. If there is nothing else, I will hang up first. If the leader sees that I am calling during work time, my salary will be deducted!"
Indeed, when Zhou An heard this, he immediately got to the point.
"Is that so? Then I'll cut to the chase. You should still remember that this weekend is Lulu's birthday, right? I discussed it with your big brother. We are preparing to give Lulu a gold pendant as a birthday present, but we do not have any beautiful designs in this small place. I heard from Dad that you are working in a big city now. Can you help me and your big brother go to the mall to pick one? "
Su Nuannuan's heart sank. This was to remind her to remember to buy Lulu a birthday present, and she had already thought of what to give to her.
As an aunt, it was only right to give her niece a birthday present to make her happy. But Su Nuannuan really did not like this feeling of being forced. Furthermore, it was a child's birthday and there was no need to give such a valuable gift.
"Sister-in-law, I can help you choose, but I am so far away from home. If I send it back via express delivery, aren't you afraid that there will be a problem in the middle?"
"You don't have to worry about this at all. I have already asked around. Nowadays, the express delivery companies all have guaranteed price services. You just need to guarantee the price. If there is a problem, the express delivery company will also compensate!"
This was a trap that had been set up long ago, waiting for her to crawl in!
But the more Zhou Jing acted this way, the more Su Nuannuan did not want to follow Zhou Jing's wishes. She would prepare Lulu's birthday gift but she had the final say on what to give.
"Alright then. Tonight I will go to the shopping mall to take a look. But sister-in-law, I just rented a house over here and paid the deposit. I haven't paid the salary yet, so I only paid the rent because I borrowed money from my friend. Why don't I send you a picture and a quote after I look at the design? If you think it looks good... You can transfer the money to my card first, and then I'll pay the rent!"
Once Su Nuannuan said this, the other end of the phone immediately quietened down.
After a few seconds, Su Nuannuan heard Zhou Jing's voice. "Nuannuan, buying a child's pendant is only a few thousand yuan. You can't even take out this money? Your brother and I are not very cultured, so we don't know how to make online transfers. If you really don't have money, you can borrow some from your friend first. Don't worry. When you return home during the new year, I will definitely return the money to you!"
