—”I’m still busy, let’s talk later.”
—”Not yet.”
—”I’m in a meeting.”
—”Just wait a bit longer, it’s almost time.”
It was almost midnight! I had sung until my voice was hoarse. I told myself, this would be the last call! However, the response I got was, “It’s almost time, come to the company and wait for me now.” I hung up directly; he actually, actually wanted me to go to him and wait?! My phone rang again; it was Qi Yufeng’s usual deep voice, “Tell me, where are you right now.” This time, I turned off my phone, took a sip of my drink, but couldn’t resist, and grabbed the MIC to scream, “Ah! Ah!!!!!!” The entire room fell silent, listening to my shouts, and even the waitstaff and manager outside peeked in several times, probably thinking we had all gone mad.
After venting, I made a wish, blew out the candles, cut the cake… and then everyone went wild again. No one dared to provoke me anymore, but then, the CEO Qi Yufeng, whom no one dared to mention, appeared with a face that was both exhausted and irritated. Holding his removed suit jacket in one hand, he grabbed me with the other and dragged me towards the exit, “Do you know how long I’ve been looking for you! Come with me.” I remained silent, forcefully shaking off his hand. He turned his head, puzzled and angry, “I’ll say it again, come with me, now!”
“I’ll only say this once, I won’t!”
“Tonight is my birthday, and I’ve waited for you all day, past midnight, there’s no show left, let’s go, I don’t want to see you anymore!” I slammed the door in front of everyone, no longer seeing his expressionless face. This certainly hurt his pride, but I didn’t feel any joy…
