Tan Shaoshi never thought that there would be a day when she would run to her boss to flatter her and beg for mercy.

There was nothing she could do.

The deadline for submitting the first draft has passed, and Tan Shaoshi has no draft, no ideas, dragged her tired body numbly to the discussion meeting, and listened numbly to director Yu Zhi's talk about the "work of the majority" this time.

She is one of the few who did not submit their works.

Thinking of this, Tan Shaoshi couldn't help sighing, feeling sad for her performance this time.

The theme is love, such a clichéd topic, every year major brands will launch couples' styles for festivals, and there are countless related designs, why is her mind blank and uninspired?

It’s okay to have no inspiration. As a low-level drawing worker in a company who strives to increase sales and attract orders, when her colleagues kindly reminded her to “find a random model to imitate and draw it for business”, she even forgot the pressure of her life. When I first entered the industry, I was restless.

It is difficult to protect the rights of design works, and the market is highly homogeneous. Even if she follows the advice of her colleagues and finds a hot model that has been imitated all over the street, it will not cause too serious consequences.

However, Tan Shaoshi couldn't pass the test of conscience.

She gave up, and appeared in the meeting empty-handed like a fool, and would tremble when she met the supervisor Yu Zhi, wondering what kind of thoughts were hidden behind such gentle eyes.

After spending more than two hours on pins and needles, Tan Shaoshi returned to her seat like a wandering soul, and made a heavy decision in front of the unsightly manuscript on the computer.

She had to talk to Yu Zhi and ask for a few days of grace to get the manuscript out.

At 6:13, the colleagues basically left, but the light in Yu Zhi's office was still on, and the white light shone through the gaps in the blinds into the dimly lit large office room, which was a bit dazzling.

Tan Shaoshi stood up with her hands in a daze, took the prepared manuscript, and slowly moved over with hesitant steps.

However, with a distance of more than ten meters, she rehearsed the beginning of several versions in her mind, and kept struggling on how to praise Yu Zhi-if you want to ask someone, of course you must speak nicely.

After knocking on the door twice, Tan Shaoshi heard the familiar "Come in", which was vaguely blocked by the door.

Her heart skipped a beat, she couldn't figure out whether Yu Zhi was in a good mood or not, so she pushed the door open and entered.

Yu Zhi raised her eyes and smiled when she heard the sound, her voice was still soft and delicate, the tone was just right, neither high nor low at a comfortable level, as close as chatting with a friend, "Shao Shi, Are you still off work so late?"

It was clearly a word of concern, but to Tan Shaoshi, who had not finished her work and was forced to work overtime, it sounded a bit off.

"Yeah." She laughed dryly, and after closing the door, said a blunt sentence, "You're so late, thank you for your hard work."

Yu Zhi smiled deeper, "I'm waiting for you."

"..." Tan Shaoshi couldn't answer, she lowered her head and pinched the creases in the corner of the design draft.

"Sit down." Yu Zhi said softly, "Let's have a good talk."

Tan Shaoshi pulled the chair and sat down, her movements were light, she wanted to straighten her back but she was afraid that it would be too stiff, she pursed her lips and looked at Yu Zhi who was opposite, thinking that the long-term pain is worse than the short-term pain, she gritted her teeth and said, "I'm sorry, I didn’t turn in the first draft on time this time.”

"It's okay," Yu Zhi's eyes fell on the design draft in her hand.

Tan Shaoshi bit the bullet and showed it, "This is my unfinished first draft. I have already completed part of it. The rest is estimated to take three days. My initial expectation is..."

She felt that she didn't have the confidence to extend the time directly, so she expressed her thoughts to let Yu Zhi know that she had a plan and arrangement and would not keep procrastinating.

Yu Zhi listened quietly, looking up at her from time to time.

Tan Shaoshi almost stuttered.

She doesn't think Yu Zhi is a temperless leader like others.

To be able to sit in the current position, Yu Zhi must have her own set of management methods. While maintaining the stability of the team, she can leave such a good impression on people. It can be seen that she is extremely capable, and she is a person she can't see through but admires.

In front of powerful people, Tan Shaoshi thought that her tricks were not enough, and when she thought about Yu Zhi's position in whether she would go or stay, her heart trembled, and she kept watching her words for fear of making a mistake.

Fortunately, Yu Zhi didn't mind the nervousness behind her. After listening to it, she nodded and praised routinely, "It's a very good idea, let's finish the draft as soon as possible."

"Thank you Director!" Tan Shaoshi breathed a sigh of relief, "I will definitely finish it well!"

She was thinking of going to work overtime to show her diligence, but she was about to speak when she heard Yu Zhi's next sentence.

"It's getting late." Yu Zhi looked at the time, "Let's go have a meal together."

-

Yu Zhi was the boss, and she said that she wanted to go out for dinner. As a subordinate who asked for mercy, Tan Shaoshi had no room to refuse.

She was smiling, but her heart was bitter: the food outside was oily and salty, and the taste was a bit heavy.

Tan Shaoshi was ready to continue to toss her spleen and stomach, forced a smile and followed, but found Yu Zhi's car parked in front of an elegant Chinese restaurant.

The Chinese restaurant was elegantly furnished and the tea was fragrant. She held the cup and took a sip. While pursing her lips to moisten her throat, she smelled the faint smell of smoke from her fingertips.

Feeling guilty, Tan Shaoshi hastily put down her cup and put her hands under the table.

"Look at the menu." Yu Zhi didn't notice, and suggested with a smile, "The signature soup here is pretty good."

Tan Shaoshi said good, and glanced over the menu: Well, the price is within acceptable range, I can afford it.

They each looked at the menu, Yu Zhi ordered two dishes, Tan Shaoshi felt that it was not enough, and added three more with dim sum.

"Shaoshi, this snack tastes sweeter." Yu Zhi said, "Do you want another one?"

The director doesn't like sweets either?Tan Shaoshi thought it was a coincidence, and ordered another mint cake with a fresh taste according to the waiter's recommendation, and handed back the menu. When handing the menu back, the hand with the faint smell of smoke moved closer to Yu Zhi.

She shrank back again, secretly rubbing out the perfume in her bag and rubbing it on her hands.

Tan Shaoshi remembered that Yu Zhi didn't like smokers.Last time, some people thought it was too cold to go up to the rooftop, so they went to the window of the conference room to smoke a couple of cigarettes, and Yu Zhi deliberately reiterated the company's ban on smoking, with a rare seriousness on his expression.

After finally getting a grace period of three days, she has to behave better, so as not to make Yu Zhi unhappy.

Seeing her lowering her head, Yu Zhi expressed concern, "It's been a hard time rushing to draft."

"It should." Tan Shaoshi replied obediently.

"Take a good rest today." Yu Zhi added tea to her empty cup, "You already have an idea, the rest is the perfect steps, take your time, don't worry."

Tan Shaoshi thanked, "Thank you Director."

"You said your inspiration came from the shining lights." Yu Zhi asked her with a wink, "Where is the light?"

It was this chin-supporting movement that made Tan Shaoshi feel that the current Yu Zhi looks different from the one sitting in the office. It is more like her friends who don’t understand jewelry design curiously inquired about her work and subconsciously answered the truth. "bar."

Yu Zhi raised her eyebrows, "A bar?"

"...I went with my friends."

"Yeah." Yu Zhi was thoughtful, and said a polite word, "It's good to try more."

Tan Shaoshi was embarrassed.

Even though she knew that Yu Zhi didn't mean that, when she heard the word try, she still couldn't help but think of the nasty words said by the person who took her to the bar - if you see something that suits you, try it.

Tan Shaoshi was lazy and cowardly, she didn't try to make an appointment according to her friend's suggestion, every time she focused on enduring the booming music, and went home after staying for a while, she didn't find the inspiration of love and was despised by her roommate as a "coward" , I was so worried that I smoked a cigarette to calm down.

As a result, she didn't have an affair, and she didn't find any inspiration for love. Instead, she picked up the bad habit of smoking.

Tan Shaoshi was very regretful, so regretful that she told Yu Zhi the truth, "Yeah, I didn't know it was suitable for me until I tried it."

Yu Zhi smiled.

Tan Shaoshi didn't figure out what Yu Zhi meant, the door of the box opened, and the waiter came in with dishes, and put them on the table one by one. The delicately carved porcelain plates contained the carefully cooked dishes. The colors were plain, but they had an attractive charm .

Yu Zhi didn't talk often, Tan Shaoshi couldn't find a topic, they ate their own food, quietly.

Having eaten almost, Tan Shaoshi wanted to check the time and buy a bill in advance if it was suitable.As soon as she took out her mobile phone, she saw a call from her roommate. She thought that it was probably a big deal for the person who only wanted to be high this night to remember that she was here, so she answered it in confusion, "Hello?"

"Shaoshi, help me..." the roommate's words were vague, as if wearing a crying voice, "I'm so dizzy, I can't walk,"

Tan Shaoshi knew she was in a bar when she heard the blaring music from behind, her heart skipped a beat, "Are you intoxicated?"

"En." The roommate responded to her, and the next sentence was to say to the person next to her, "I won't go with you, let go!"

Tan Shaoshi remembered the chaos in the bar that she had heard from others, and panicked, "I'll go there right away, just hold on."

The roommate choked up and said yes.

After hanging up the phone, Tan Shaoshi was thinking about how to explain to Yu Zhi, but when she raised her eyes, she saw Yu Zhi just put away her wallet.

"I've paid the bill," Yu Zhi said calmly, "Are you in a hurry? I'll take you there."

Tan Shaoshi was stunned, "Then why not, I'll just take a taxi."

"Let's go out first." Yu Zhi didn't accept her refusal.

Time is the most important thing. Tan Shaoshi has no time to say polite words to Yu Zhi. When she went out to the door, she found that there was a long queue of people waiting for taxis. The location here is remote, and the subway and bus are not fast enough. She heard The roommate was too worried about an accident and had to rush over as soon as possible.

She compromised, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

"Fasten your seat belt and sit still." After getting into the car, Yu Zhi said, her voice was not as gentle as usual, but it had the firm force to make people obey.

Tan Shaoshi listened like a good boy, "Okay."

Yu Zhi checked the destination, started the car, stepped on the gas pedal, and rushed to the bar where her roommate was staying.

Tan Shaoshi grasped the handrail firmly, was dumbfounded, blinked and then looked to the side.

Yu Zhi's expression was calm, her hand holding the steering wheel was relaxed and comfortable, and her fingertips calmly beat the music in the car. Her calm appearance was no different from the safe driving appearance when she came here, and it was in stark contrast to the scenery passing by outside the window.

She was stunned.

Sure enough... Yu Zhi is an unfathomable person.

Thanks to the blessing of Yu Zhi who turned into a car god, Tan Shaoshi rushed to the bar that her friend mentioned as quickly as possible, and while searching for it on the phone, she got a dumbfounding news.

Another friend arrived before them and took the roommate home.

"My friend is gone." Tan Shaoshi lost her temper and apologized to Yu Zhi immediately, "Sorry for wasting your time."

Yu Zhi smiled indifferently, "It's okay."

"Let me buy you a drink." Tan Shaoshi thought that she would come here, and it would be silly to leave directly.

Yu Zhi was easy-going, so she agreed and sat down with her.

In a hurry to find someone just now, Tan Shaoshi ignored all the service staff, making herself look like a person who came to stroll around without spending money.Now it's time to order, and she has to call back the waiter who gave up on herself. She is not used to it in a strange place, and looks around the seemingly busy crowd, thinking about who is better to shout at.

She remembered being laughed at the last time she yelled.

Tan Shaoshi didn't know why, she just knew that she didn't want to show her timidity this time, so she hesitated for a long time and couldn't call her.

As soon as Yu Zhi waved, a waiter automatically came over.

In the bar, Yu Zhi ordered a cup of tea, smiled under her surprised eyes and said, "I want to drive."

"Oh!" Tan Shaoshi belatedly realized that she had made a wrong decision, and hurriedly said, "How about we change places and drink some good tea?"

"No, it's okay here." Yu Zhi scanned the surroundings, not affected by the loud volume at all, sat down gracefully, sipped the tea slowly, and was in a relaxed state.

Inexplicably, Tan Shaoshi thought of what her friend said - the old driver was always relaxed.

She was dazed, looked Yu Zhi up and down, and asked cautiously, "Do you really like this place?"

"Don't always think about accommodating me." Yu Zhi chuckled, "After work, you don't need to treat me as your boss."

Tan Shaoshi was about to say something when her phone vibrated and her best friend called.Best friend Zhuo Weilan is a family man, and if she doesn't accompany his wife to call her at night, she thinks it's probably a big deal, so she's embarrassed to answer it.

Probably it was Yu Zhi watching, she always had a businesslike manner when talking to her girlfriends.

"Okay." Tan Shaoshi panicked from being stared at, put away her phone and took a sip of the drink she ordered just now.

Yu Zhi was rarely surprised, "Hey."

That's too late.

She choked on the strong drink and coughed, staring at the glass in her hand with wide eyes.

"Sorry, I put it too close." The waiter helped change her real drink and kept apologizing.

Tan Shaoshi didn't listen, because her mouth was a little numb, and the waiter's words turned into a buzzing noise in her ears.She said a few words to the waiter briefly, took a sip of the drink to filter out the smell of alcohol.However, the stamina of the wine quickly picked up, and she felt hot all over, feeling the booming sound of the background music hitting her head.

Seeing that her expression was not right, Yu Zhi asked worriedly, "Shao Shi?"

Tan Shaoshi wanted to respond, but her tongue was tied up and she couldn't control her. She rubbed her brows and closed her eyes, intending to talk to Yu Zhi later.Just for a moment, she opened her eyes again, everything was not good, and the world in front of her eyes appeared distorted and deformed under the complicated lights.

Yu Zhi walked directly to her side, gently stroked her back, "Are you all right?"

Tan Shaoshi shook her head, all she cared about was the treat, "I...pay the bill first."

"..." Yu Zhi didn't answer.

She heard laughter in her ears, it seemed to be there, but it was fleeting, like the feeling of a petal floating in the wind and falling on the palm of the hand, gently, softly, wanting to grab it and being blown by the wind went.

Before getting confused, Tan Shaoshi paid the bill resolutely, and then went home with Yu Zhi who was supporting her, sat down and closed her eyes with peace of mind.

It was already morning when she woke up, she opened her eyes, and found that everything was strange - she saw a simple and chic chandelier at a glance, lying on a soft and spacious bed, covered with a soft quilt, exuding a pleasant fragrance, rubbing There is a wonderful tactile sensation when touching bare skin.

Tan Shaoshi didn't think she would have such a nice house, nor did she think that she suddenly had the habit of sleeping naked.She was dizzy, subconsciously thought it was a dream, turned around and planned to sleep for a while.

Then, she saw Yu Zhi lying on the pillow.

Tan Shaoshi was stunned for a long time, and when she recovered, she screamed in her heart:

she she she...

You really don't think of Yu Zhi as your boss!
