Chapter 14
Compared to the structured schedule that indicates to students when to take their breaks and when to rest that a school provides. The workplace schedule is clearly subpar.
Wen Ai sat next to a small office desk towards the side of the office and snuck a look at the time, it was already 12:15. However the person who was sitting at the big office table showed no signs of wanting to rest. Fully focused on typing away on the keyboard. Completely immersed in his work.
Since the team leader had yet to speak. Wen Ai dared not to go eat without authorization. And thus could only let his hungry stomach accompany him in maintaining his station.
It was only after a long time did the sounds of the keyboard come to a halt. Wen Ai cheered in his heart, thinking it was finally time for lunch. In the end Xu ChangZhou merely took out a piece of document from the files and marked notes on it with a pen while reading. This new task would no doubt not be finished anytime soon.
Wen Ai’s emerging cheerful mood was immediately squashed. His empty stomach finally gave in and growled.
Xu ChangZhou moved, pushing back his sleeve to look at his watch. He furrowed his eyebrows “It has already been half an hour since lunch break started, why didn’t you remind me?”
Wen Ai cradled his stomach, feeling wronged: “I thought you knew the time ah, don’t you feel hungry when it’s lunchtime?”
“I’ll pay more attention to it next time.” Xu ChangZhou pinched his nose and grabbed the blazer atop the chair. “ Let’s go, to eat..”
Wen Ai did not want to walk alongside him, and as such jumped up from his seat, and ran away like a wisp of smoke. “See you later!”
Xu ChangZhou watched as he ran like that of an airplane taking flight, and didn’t know wheter to laugh or cry. It looks as if he were to follow him, Wen Ai would not enjoy the meal.

Kelly was surprised when she saw that he was alone. But immediately recovered with a smiling expression and conversed with him.
Wen Ai asked Kelly in a roundabout way regarding whether she knew how his professor was able to obtain the internship quota. Kelly apologetically shrugged her shoulders, indicating that she did not know. And quickly finished her salad that had little to none salad dressing and left after bidding farwell.
Wen Ai was not acquainted with anyone other than kelly, and as such could only stifle his curiosity and continue to eat his food.
Americans do not undergo the practice of an afternoon nap, instead they prefer to drink coffee to solve the problem. He felt drowsy right after he finished his meal. He would usually be able to sleep in his dormitory bed, but as of now, he was unable to find a spot for sleeping.
Returning to the office was not a viable option. Sleeping in the presence of Xu ChangZhou was like sleeping on the edge of a cliff, where you have to be ever vigilant. It would be a miracle if one could get any sleep in that situation.
Wen Ai sat down at a shaded spot on the rooftop terrace, when an unknown number rang just as he had counted the 35th floor of the building opposit to him.
Wen Ai swiped the screen : “Hello? Who is this?”
The otherside was silent for a bit: “Do you not have my phone number? I remember giving you my business card.”
Hearing the voice of Xu ChangZhou, Wen Ai was slightly stunned.”I……forgot.”
“Save it in your contacts after hanging up.” Xu ChangZhou followed up by saying “ Are you done eating? where are you now?”
Wen Ai answered truthfully “I’ve finished, I’m on the rooftop terrace.”
Xu ChangZhou “Do you want to turn yourself into beef jerky? Come back “
Wen Ai wiped a drop of sweat from his forehead “No need, the sun’s not that strong”
Xu ChangZhou “You have 3 minutes, if you’re not back by then, you don’t need to come to work tomorrow.”
Wen AI ‘Don’t Don’t Don’t! Hello? Hello?!”
The call had been disconnected!
Wen Ai depressingly put the phone back into his pocket. If he messes up this internship, the professor is sure to be merciless when deducting his marks. “Sigh” lets return to the office.
When Wen Ai carefully pushed open the office door, the whole office’s lights have been turned off. Even the curtains were drawn, there was only darkness.
Wen Ai did not dare to close the door, his hand holding the door nobb. Looking nervous like a rabbit that would jump and escape at any given moment. He timidly asked towards the darkness. “Chairman Xu?”
Suddenly came Xu ChangZhou’s voice next to his ears “en”
Wen Ai did not expect Xu ChangZhou to be so close, and was so scared that he jumped backwards a few steps.
Xu ChangZhou chuckled in a deep voice. “Scared?”
Wen Ai stuck himself against the wall and shook his head. “No No”
Xu ChangZhou turned on his phone’s flashlight function and shone the road ahead of Wen Ai “I’ll take you to the resting room for a rest.”
Wen Ai stuck himself even closer to the wall, wanting to use *502 to glue himself to the wall.
“No need, I’m not tired.”
“There’s still a lot of work to be done this afternoon.” Xu ChangZhou walked and stopped in front of him. And grabbed his hand while speaking in a tone that did not take no for an answer “Let’s go”
The Resting room was an individual room with a bed placed in the middle. Xu ChangZhou led Wen Ai to the bedside and let go of his hands. ‘Sleep”
Wen Ai made an attempt for the exit as soon as his hands were released. “No need, I really don’t want to sleep.”
The room was also pitch black, as such Wen Ai did not know which direction to go, accidentally tripping over the bed post. Xu ChangZhou reached to grabb him, but both ended up falling onto the bed. The bed was of quite high quality indeed, as it even bounced twice when the two fell onto it.
