"What gift?" Wang Weixi asked anxiously. It seemed that Lan Ling was in a daze and did not hear what he said, so Wang Weixi had to repeat.
Lan Ling came to her senses. She embarrassedly took out a small gift box from under several documents and handed it to her boss. Wang Weixi took it and placed it beside him without a look.
"Got it, you may excuse yourself." Seeing Lan Ling's expression, Wang Weixi knew that he could not definitely open the gift on the spot. "No joke. If there is something about our past, am I burying myself? What a gossip Lan Ling is!" Wang Weixi shook his head. This female secretary had already disappointed him many times.
Lan Ling was going to see what was inside the gift box, but Wang Weixi asked her to leave in a tepid tone, so she had to get out quietly.
After Lan Ling left, Wang Weixi and Yi Duanfang looked at each other and took out the gift.
Unwrapped, a delicate gift box came into sight. It looked a bit familiar. Wang Weixi frowned and suddenly recalled the box of Chen Keren's gift on his wedding day... Thinking of it, he felt uneasy inexplicably.
"Tong Siqi should not be so nasty, right? She is so gentle and kind in my memory, but I don't know why... she became so indifferent and cruel." Thinking of this, he couldn't help but frown.
"Don't always be absent-minded. Let's see what your first girlfriend sent you?" Yi Duanfang interrupted his thoughts rudely. In fact, Wang Weixi always felt that Yi Duanfang frowned while talking about Tong Siqi.
Wang Weixi slowly opened the gift box and his heart was beating fast for no reason.
Yi Duanfang also watched it anxiously.
"What?" Seeing a strange doll lying in the gift box, Yi Duanfang sighed with somewhat disdain.
Wang Weixi knitted his eyebrows.
Seeing Wang Weixi's uneasy face, Yi Duanfang asked inquisitively, "What is this doll for? Is it your previous love token?"
Wang Weixi gasped and shook his head. He took the doll out and placed it in his palm. This was a doll in a prison uniform and its body was wrapped up by cloth.
"It is a voodoo doll." Wang Weixi said in a toneless voice.
Yi Duanfang was stunned and responded casually, "Voodoo doll? Isn't it used to curse people?"
Wang Weixi's face became stiff.
Yi Duanfang stared at Wang Weixi and paused for two seconds before he said with great disdain, "Is Tong Siqi a child? Why did she give you such a thing?"
Wang Weixi pinched the doll tightly. Actually, he was simmering with anger. "She dumped me! Why did she do this now?"
"It's really childish. When she broke up with me, she acted as if I owed her a lot of things. Now she sent me such a doll. Does she really think I owe her?" Then he threw the voodoo doll away and even flung the gift box into the trash can.
Yi Duanfang opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but eventually, he put on a big smile and patted Wang Weixi's shoulder, saying, "Don't be mad. What's in her mind has nothing to do with you."
Wang Weixi adjusted his spectacles. It was true that it had nothing to do with him, but what she did made him uncomfortable.
"Well, well, there is still an hour and a half before we can get off work. I am going to take a nap and you can perfect your own plan." Then he got up and left.
Wang Weixi sat on the sofa. After a good while, he sighed helplessly and picked up the voodoo doll again. Glancing at the gift box in the trash can, he thought for a second and took it out and put the voodoo doll into it. Then he came to his desk, opened the drawer, and put the box in it.
