"Speak, what do you want?" Xi Mo was a very humorous person. "Do you want to treat me to dinner or something else?"
Lin Tan: "Where are you?"
Xi Mo: "You don't even know where I am? Are you even my friend?"
Lin Tan calmly replied, "You talk as if you know where I am."
"How could I not know something so simple?"
"Then you tell me."
"Of course it's in my heart."
Lin Tan paused, then a smile unconsciously curved her lips, and a genuine smile spread across her eyes.
So much time has passed.
She still has the same personality.
"Yes, you're in my heart too," Lin Tan replied calmly.
"Aren't you filming a movie lately? How come you still have time to ask me out for dinner?" Xi Mo said seriously.
Lin Tan felt most relaxed when she was with them: "I don't think I said I would treat you to a meal."
Xi Mo gritted her teeth and said, "Try not to invite me to eat, and I'll come over and chop your head off!"
Lin Tan: "Okay, okay, let's eat."
Xi Mo snorted softly, "That's more like it."
Lin Tan felt a warmth in her heart.
A while later.
Xi Mo spoke again: "Is there anything else you want to say?"
"A little." Lin Tan was straightforward with her and another friend, and the three of them had an almost inseparable relationship. "I'd like to get some sleep aid packets or sachets."
"You have insomnia?" Xi Mo asked with concern.
"It wasn't me, it was an elder." Lin Tan didn't hide it from her. "She gave me something when we last met, and I wanted to give her a return gift."
"Tell me about the patient's symptoms, and I'll have my father prescribe a medicine for me." Xi Mo's father is a professor of traditional Chinese medicine at one of the top medical schools in the country. His family has been practicing medicine for generations. Although he is now retired, his students are still very difficult to book an appointment with.
She had suffered from insomnia for a while before.
But after she gave her a sleeping pill pack, she never had insomnia again.
The medicine is very effective.
Lin Tan told her what Jiang Ruan had told her, and then tentatively asked, "Would it be convenient to give me a copy of the recipe later?"
The Xie family was a wealthy and influential family.
When an ordinary person gives away sleep aid packets and sachets, it inevitably makes people worry about whether they are all-natural, whether they contain fragrances or other high-tech ingredients.
Having the formula makes the other party feel more at ease.
“What’s inconvenient about that?” Xi Mo replied while texting her husband, adding a gossipy comment, “Who is that person that you’re so concerned about?”
For a normal return gift, just choose something decent.
But to specially return the favor by sleeping with the other party is no longer a simple matter of returning a gift.
“A very good senior,” Lin Tan said.
"No way," Xi Mo drawled, "Is he someone you like, a senior?"
Lin Tan: "No, it's really not."
Xi Mo: "I don't believe it."
Lin Tan: "Oh."
Xi Mo: "Try one more time."
Lin Tan: "I've only met her twice, but the gift she gave me was quite expensive. I didn't know what to give in return, so I thought I'd start with something practical."
"Is he really not an elder of the person you like?" Xi Mo still refused to give up.
Lin Tan: "No."
Xi Mo: "So you have someone you like?"
Lin Tan: "..."
There are pitfalls everywhere.
"Who is it?" Xi Mo asked curiously. "How could someone win the favor of our Tan'er?"
"If things work out, I'll introduce you to him," Lin Tan readily admitted.
Although she had been suppressing her feelings for Qin Mo and distancing herself from him, she didn't want to have too much contact with him, worried that it was just a passing interest or a youthful obsession.
But everything Qin Mo did during this time told her that he was serious.
He was seriously planning their future.
He is also seriously considering her needs.
Xi Mo: "?"
Xi Mo was so shocked that her voice rose several octaves: "You're really pregnant!"
Lin Tan did not speak.
"When did this happen? How come we didn't know?" Xi Mo continued to chatter on. "Who is he? Is he in the industry too? Did he pursue you or did you pursue him?"
A barrage of questions rained down on Lin Tan.
It's clear she's really curious about this.
"With so many questions, which one do you want me to answer?" Lin Tan remained gentle.
"Answer one by one." Xi Mo was very curious. "Anyone who dares to conceal anything will be executed without mercy!"
"I'll tell you when we meet later," Lin Tan said.
Xi Mo: "You two are together?"
Lin Tan: Not yet.
Xi Mo asked many other questions.
Lin Tan answered them one by one.
However, Qin Mo's name and identity were not mentioned at all.
"Alright, you guys better hide well so the reporters don't take pictures." Xi Mo didn't check Lin Tan's situation much, since everyone was busy. "Keep it under wraps with the company too."
Lin Tan replied with an "Mm".
After we finished talking.
Xi Mo then said the closing remark: "I'll send you the medicine package by express delivery in a few days. Please give me a mailing address."
Lin Tan agreed and gave her the mailing address.
After ending the chat, Lin Tan was thinking about another question.
The problem of medicine packets and sachets has been solved.
How should we present this to Lady Jun?
Going there rashly seems inappropriate, but asking someone to guide you would seem insincere.
The problem was resolved on the same day she received it.
Wednesday.
Lin Tan had just received her package when Secretary Qin sent her a message: "The boss wants me to come to his office."
Lin Tan: [Okay.]
Despite her doubts, she went there immediately.
But she didn't expect to see Madam Jun there. She was wearing autumn and winter clothes, with a beautiful shawl draped over her shoulders, and she was as elegant and gentle as ever.
She paused at the door, her mind momentarily blank.
"Don't just stand there, come in quickly." Qin Jiangye still spoke in that drawn-out tone, "Aunt Jun came all this way just to see you."
"Look at me?" Lin Tan was somewhat flattered.
"I happened to be running errands nearby, and when I heard you were working here, I came to check on you." Madam Jun spoke gently, glancing at the red mole on her earlobe. "Are you settling in well here? Has Jiang Ye been bullying you?"
“Aunt Jun, those words really hurt me.” Qin Jiangye smiled and said, “It’s rare to find a boss as kind, excellent, considerate of his employees, handsome, and kind-hearted as me.”
Secretary Qin glanced at him.
There was no response.
"Yes, yes, yes, our Jiangye is the best." Madam Jun laughed at his words.
"Don't you believe me?" Qin Jiangye was a master at lightening the mood. "Ask Lin Tan."
"The boss is the best boss I've ever met." Lin Tan's words came from the bottom of her heart.
Madam Jun smiled and said, "That's good."
Looking at her smile, Lin Tan couldn't help but feel happy too, though she didn't know why.
"Come and sit down." Madam Jun patted the sofa next to her. "I didn't stay long when I came to your house last time. There are so many things I haven't had a chance to talk to you about yet."
Lin Tan walked over and sat down.
Lady Jun couldn't help but glance at her a few more times.
The more I look at it, the more I like it; a dense, overwhelming feeling of emotion spreads through my chest.
"Tan'er," Madam Jun looked at her, "may I call you that?"
