[Zhizhi sneezed. Can cats catch a cold?]

[1 don’t think so. He just had one sneeze.]

The two messages from Chen Lan were only a few minutes apart.

Song Qingyou replied that she was about to get off work as she walked into the elevator.

Satisfied, she saved the photo that Chen Lan had sent her. Just as she was about to enter the office, she heard voices coming from the corner.

“Assistant Yu, please help me this once! Otherwise, 1 really don’t know what to do…”

“This is not the place to talk. You should go back first.”

“Then what happened to me today-”

“I’ll mention it to the supervisor, but I’m only working here temporarily. I don’t know if the supervisor will listen to me.”

“It’s fine, it’s fine. As long as you’re willing to help…”

The two of them exchanged words and even exchanged contact details.

Song Qingyou could only tell that one of them was Yu Muhuai. The other had a request and was very humble.

Unfortunately, they talked for a long time and didn’t say what they wanted to do specifically.

Song Qingyou stood at the office door for too long and was noticed by Yu Muhuai, who had taken a few steps forward.

The middle-aged man behind him also stopped and looked up.

The man’s face was haggard and pale, as if his vitality had been sucked out.

Song Qingyou took a few more glances at him.

“This is Secretary Song.” Yu Muhuai introduced her to the man.

“Hello, Secretary Song.” The man smiled apologetically and greeted him. “Assistant Yu has something else to do, so 1 won’t bother you for now.”

With that, she turned around and left.

Song Qingyou watched the man leave. “I heard him asking you for help just now?”

“It’s something about work.” Yu Muhuai explained in a low voice,” You know that I’m the assistant to the manager of the Planning Department. He had a problem with a project and asked me to put in a good word for him. He said that he didn’t want to lose his job.”

Song Qingyou thought back to that person’s face and couldn’t help but remind him, “He looks like he hasn’t rested for a long time.”

“Some people in the Planning Department like to stay up late to write business proposals.”

Yu Muhuai didn’t seem to take it to heart. “He’s a famous workaholic in the Planning Department. He might have been working overtime recently.”

“Don’t you need to work overtime?” Song Qingyou asked jokingly.

“I’m just an assistant. I don’t have much work.”

Yu Muhuai said gently, “I came because I heard that something happened in the Secretary Department today. I was a little worried about you.”

“It has nothing to do with me.”

Zhuang Wei’s dismissal was an internal matter of the Jiangyuan Corporation. She had no reason to tell Yu Muhuai about it.

Fortunately, Yu Muhuai was tactful and didn’t ask further. He changed the topic and asked, “We’re just on our way; do you want to go have dinner together?”
