Li Jingran turned around and said calmly, “You saved me a lot of money. You deserve it.”
Xu Wanwan reached out to pinch the corner of his shirt and asked with a smile, “Can I have anything I want?”
“Of course.”
“Then I won’t stand on ceremony.” Xu Wanwan quickly compromised. After all, she was about to start school soon, so she really needed something.
She walked up to him and honestly said, “Well, I’m about to start school. I want a computer with the best performance so that I can study computers.”
Li Jingran’s interest was piqued, and he raised his eyebrows slightly. “Have you thought about what major you want to apply for?”
“Yes! I want to study computers.”
In her past life, she had to rely on self-taught programming to survive on the black market. In this life, she would definitely seize the opportunity to further her studies in this major.
Li Jingran looked a little surprised and reminded her. “The computer major is kind of boring. Are you sure you want to take this?”
Xu Wanwan nodded without a second thought. “I know this major is a little boring, but I believe that I can definitely learn it well.”
The evening sunset lingered in front of the French windows. Her face was covered with a shallow halo as she smiled so confidently and beautifully.
She was like a flower blooming at sunset, giving people endless yearning.
Li Jingran’s heart was faintly touched. He restrained the emotions in his eyes, and his voice was still steady. “Don’t worry about the computer.”
He paused and said, “School will start in a week. You don’t have to work for a few days. I’ll transfer your salary to your private account.”
“I have salary?” Xu Wanwan was surprised.
“What, Miss Xu thinks I’m the kind of boss who would cheat the employees of salaries?”Li Jingran laughed as he looked into her bright eyes.
“No, no…” Xu Wanwan gulped and explained seriously, “Didn’t we agree before that I’m here to help you? That’s why you don’t have to pay me.”
“Miss Xu, the money you saved for me is enough to pay you,” Li Jingran said in a relaxed tone. “You deserve it.”
Xu Wanwan said in a muffled voice, “Okay then.”
She originally wanted to help Li Jingran, but she didn’t expect she would get sick a few times while working and would always rest.
After careful calculation, she didn’t help much.
Xu Wanwan sighed lightly and had no choice but to accept the expensive salary.
Two months of summer vacation passed very quickly, and school was about to start in a few days. Xu Wanwan did not have time to come back to the company to work. She still had to prepare for the start of school.
On the last day in the Internship Department, she finished all her work and used her pocket money to buy a gift for all her colleagues who were present.
Looking at everyone’s happy expressions, she smiled. “I’m very happy to have spent this period of time with all of you. I hope that in the future, we can all move toward a better future.”
The colleagues in the Internship Department looked puzzled, and they began asking one after another, “Team Leader Xu, why are you saying such things when you’re okay?”
“Yeah, we still have to work hard together.”
Xu Wanwan shook her head and explained, “I’m going to university soon. I won’t be able to work with everyone from now on.”
“Ah? We still haven’t passed our internship yet. Why are you leaving first?”
“Yeah, we’ve been together for so long. We can’t bear to part with you.”
When Zheng Feng heard this, his expression was complicated. He forced a smile and said, “Team Leader Xu, why don’t we have dinner together tonight to send you off?”
“No need,” Xu Wanwan rejected him immediately. “I’m very busy these few days. If there’s a chance, then let’s meet again.”
Zheng Feng looked lonely. He could only watch as Xu Wanwan packed her things and left the company.
Xu Wanwan walked downstairs and saw the driver’s car from afar.
Li Jingran’s side profile can be seen through the car window. He leaned his elbow against the window and waved at her casually.
Xu Wanwan smiled at the man and quickly crossed the road. Just as she was about to get into the car, her wrist was grabbed.
She subconsciously pulled her hand away and looked back.
Zheng Feng stood straight, and his eyes were filled with a stubbornness that she’d never seen before.
Xu Wanwan asked, “What’s wrong?”
“I… After spending time together, I think I like you,” Zheng Feng said word by word, and his tone was especially serious. “Can you give me a chance?”
Li Jingran was looking out of the car window and staring at Zheng Feng unhappily.
Who gave him the courage to pester Xu Wanwan time and time again?
Xu Wanwan was completely stunned.
She had never experienced such a thing before, so it was inevitable that she was at a loss.
“I’m sorry, I don’t have that kind of thought right now,” Xu Wanwan declined tactfully. “I want to study hard. I believe you will meet a good lover in the future.”
Zheng Feng’s voice tensed up. “I know it’s very abrupt, but I don’t want to leave any regrets. If you’re willing, I’m willing to wait… After you graduate–“
Before he could finish, Xu Wanwan interrupted him. “I’m not willing.”
Zheng Feng’s expression froze. It took him a long time to come back to his senses. “Well then… I wish you happiness.”
“Thank you, I will.” Xu Wanwan smiled as she said this. She opened the car door and sat next to Li Jingran.
Her gaze was calm and composed as she looked straight ahead. Her ponytail was tied behind her ear, making her look neat and tidy.
Just like how she rejected Zheng Feng just now, it was neat and tidy.
Li Jingran was in a good mood. He glanced sideways at the girl and teased, “You don’t like him?”
“We’re just colleagues.” Xu Wanwan seemed to have changed into a different person. When she faced Li Jingran, she always had a smile on her lips. “Besides, I have to focus on my studies now. I can’t think about such trivial things.”
Li Jingran nodded in satisfaction. “I hope you can continue to keep this idea.”
“Ah?”
“What I mean is, when you go to college, you’re not allowed to have such thoughts.” Li Jingran stared into the girl’s eyes and said something possessive out of the blue.
After that, he seemed to feel that it was inappropriate and added, “This is more conducive to your study.”
Xu Wanwan did not think much of it and nodded in agreement. “I definitely won’t do anything that will delay my studies.”
Li Jingran tilted his head and chuckled.
That was more like it.
Xu Wanwan returned to her room. She had just dumped her backpack on the table when her eyes were caught sight of the big gift box on the bed.
The pure white flower gift box was lying on the bed. There was a string of English words on the box, making it look exceptionally high-class.
Xu Wanwan felt a faint excitement in her heart. She walked to the bedside and reached out to stroke the flowers on the gift box.
She carefully opened the lid and saw what was inside. Her eyes instantly widened, and her heart felt like it was bursting with fireworks. She was pleasantly surprised.
It was a brand-new computer!
She took the computer out of the box and shook off a small card.
The white card was printed with magnificent handwriting——
“Study hard.”
Xu Wanwan recognized this handwriting. It was Li Jingran’s handwriting. He had seen it in the folder before.
She just didn’t expect him to write a card for her..
