“I’ve lived at her place without paying a single cent, so helping out is the least I can do.”
Yun Shaoye instinctively defended Xiao You. Although he was initially used as a laborer, he was also somewhat surprised.
Was that called helping out? He was basically treated like a handyman. But Lou Yingji could see his friend’s defense of Xiao You.
“You’re defending her so much. There must be a special reason, right?” His tone was suggestive.
“If you had spent time with Xiao You, you’d understand my feelings.”
He gave a look of polite refusal, “No thanks! I’m not interested in being a handyman.”
Yun Shaoye didn’t insist.
Lou Yingji’s curiosity wasn’t satisfied, “You came back so suddenly. Didn’t she say anything?” He wanted to further understand the relationship between his friend and Xiao You.
Remembering what Xiao You had said, Yun Shaoye smiled bitterly, “She was very eager to get rid of me.”
Lou Yingji was surprised. Given Yun Shaoye’s conditions and family background, he couldn’t imagine a woman being so eager to get rid of him.
“Didn’t she ask for your phone number, address, or any contact information?” He was skeptical and couldn’t believe there was such a carefree woman.
“No address, but I did voluntarily write down my phone number for her.”
Although Xiao You hadn’t called in these three days, he had called her several times but never got through.
“What about her? Did she call?”
Surely she must be eager to call!
“If she had called, I wouldn’t be unable to find her.”
Didn’t call?
How could this be possible!
But Lou Yingji still asked, “Why are you looking for her?”
“I want to arrange a job for her at Yun Corporation.”
“Why would you arrange a job for her out of the blue?” Lou Yingji’s tone was loaded with meaning.
“Her current job is too complicated, and her work schedule is irregular. If she could work at Yun Corporation, at least she’d have a stable job.”
For the first time, Lou Yingji saw his friend so proactively considering a woman, and he had a vague idea. He was about to speak when his phone rang.
It was Yun Shaoye’s phone. He answered, “Hello, Yun Shaoye.”
