The Beautiful Time With You

Chapter 411: Wedding Day (1)

"I donned my tuxedo and put on a tie. For the first time in my life, I willingly called a cab to get to our boss' company. I did everything that I could to clear the interview. Do you know how happy I was when I received the acceptance call yesterday? In that instant, I thought that I was the most blissful person in the world.

"But today, when I reported to work at our boss' company earlier today, I realized that I had stepped into not heaven but hell. I was actually assigned to become the subordinate of our boss' elder sister! She was in the midst of berating someone when I entered her office with my documents. A second after I knocked on the door and opened it, I saw her crushing a glass cup with her bare hands…

"And that isn't the worst yet! What's even more terrifying is that your elder sister is clearly getting vengeance on me for accidentally seeing her bare body back then! For the entire day, she made me run around the place to get her food, and after the laborious effort I put into getting them, she actually refused to eat!

"I gave it some thought after that. As a capable undergraduate from G University, how can I allow myself to be bullied by your elder sister like that? So, I rose up and told your elder sister that she's fired! But in the next moment, she swung her fist toward me and said something about 'Do you think that my department is your family's living room? Do you think that this is a place where you can come and leave as you please?'"

"What happened next?" Gripped by the story, Lu Benlai urged Xia Shangzhou to carry on.

"So, what happened next is that…" The proud expression that Xia Shangzhou had when he talked about his uprising withered away like a miserable flower in the face of winter, replaced with the shrunken look of an eggplant before a hailstorm.

"… I gave in. I told her, 'Big sis, I was wrong. I won't try to leave anymore. I will serve you like a slave. Putting aside a mere 5-year contract, I would slave off for her for ten years if she wanted me to!' And a moment later, I was sold into our boss' company for ten years. Ten years! Ten whole freaking years! That's the ten most beautiful years of my life!"

Lin Jiage rolled his eyes at Xia Shangzhou's bitter wailings before turning to Lu Benlai, who was still laughing in glee at Xia Shangzhou's misery, and asked, "What about you?"

Right after hearing Lin Jiage asking about her, Lu Benlai's face immediately drooped sorrowfully as he began spitting out the bitterness he had been put through, "I am even more pitiful than Old Xia. Didn't I tell you a while ago that I got my future wife's AliPay account? I really sent her 520 RMB and blacklisted her so that she can't return my money back to me. So, recently, she came to our class to look for me. Words can't even begin to describe how happy I was then. I thought that I could finally get my future wife's phone number.

"Then, just earlier this afternoon, I got a call from a public phone. My future wife has asked me out in the little forest in front of our school. So, I got into my most handsome look before heading over, and a mere second after I arrived, my future wife threw the money into my face. Look! This red mark over here was the paper cut by one of the notes…

"My future wife said that there was no way she couldn't have possibly seen through those shallow thoughts of mine. So, I finally conceded and asked her just what should I do in order to get her phone number. Then, she replied that there's no way in the world I'll be able to get her phone number. She pointed to the sun and said, 'Get as far away from me as the sun is from us…'

"… Just like that, my plan failed. I've to start devising a new one now… Boss, don't you think that I'm really pitiful?"

Upon hearing Lu Benlai's words, Xia Shangzhou looked at Lin Jiage with sad, puppy eyes as he said, "Me too. Don't you think that I had it worse than Little Lailai?"

Lin Jiage glanced at the duo before him before leisurely leaning back in the chair as he said, "Since the two of you are so miserable, shall I share something happy with you to treat your wounds?"

Xia Shangzhou: "Wahh, I knew it! Boss still loves me!"

Lu Benlai: "Tell me, tell me!"

Before Lin Jiage began speaking, his lips had already curled into a smile, and he said, "Today is the wedding day between me and Yaoyao."
