“An Ke, here, eat this. You look so thin,” Zhang Ning handed An Ke a grilled chicken leg. They only knew that An Ke had a brother in college and knew nothing else about her. Seeing her working from morning to night without complaining, helping others even after finishing her own work, everyone genuinely liked this outsider.
The young Chen next to them teased: “Old Zhang, why are you only giving An Ke one? I’m thin too, grill one for me!”
Everyone laughed. An Ke handed the chicken leg to Xiao Chen: “You eat it, I’ll grill my own.”
Xiao Chen protested: “No way, this is specially given to you by Director Zhang. Do you want him to fire me?”
An Ke laughed and took back the chicken leg, eating it slowly. In this month, she had gradually integrated into their lives. She was already used to their joking around. Everyone grilled and ate while laughing and teasing. An Ke looked up at the moon, thinking that she had made it through this month without Jun Hao. Only Zhang Ning in the distance saw the fleeting darkness in her eyes.

In a high-end pub in the bustling downtown of New York, with its red lights and green alcohol, the dim lighting provided a venue for open-minded men and women. Youzai Kensei, dressed casually, had one arm around a blonde beauty, occasionally whispering in their ears. The two beauties said something that made the three of them laugh loudly. Youzai Kensei turned his head to see Jun Hao arrive at this kind of place, still dressed in a suit, with a faint smile on his face, sitting to the side and shaking his wine glass, drinking one glass after another.
Waving away the women beside him and adjusting his slightly disheveled clothes: “Hao, this isn’t how you drink. As the saying goes, beautiful women and fine wine lose their flavor if either is missing. Want me to find a foreign girl to keep you company? These girls are first-class in bed, I guarantee you’ll be satisfied.” Youzai Kensei spoke with a hint of drunkenness.
