Chapter 559: Chapter 559: Look at the Mess You’ve Made
In the afternoon, Shen Liangyin was hanging around the workshop. Different from her previously feigned approachability, her face had been dark these two days.
The rumors in the factory that she couldn’t suppress were bothering her, but what was even more annoying was that Suizi was here.
Today, Suizi was wearing a long-sleeve modified cheongsam. The champagne-colored jacquard had low-key lace edges on the collar and cuffs, making it look refined and elegant, with no hint of old-fashionedness.
Others saw Suizi and only thought that the Director Chen had a good figure, tall and thin, like a timeless beauty stepping out from a painting.
But to Shen Liangyin, this was like a direct provocation, some kind of challenge aimed at her.
"Director Chen, are you here for the factory director? Why are you dressed so beautifully today? " One of the workers passed by, stunned by Suizi’s new style.
So it turns out Director Chen is so thin. No wonder the Factory Director can easily lift her with one hand. This slim waist couldn’t have been guessed under her everyday cotton clothes.
"Someone at the office is getting married and asked me to host the ceremony, I kinda got roped into it," Suizi replied with a cheerful smile, not missing Shen Liangyin’s face twisted with jealousy.
"They even invited you to host? Truly, our Factory Director’s wife can do everything." The flattery fell on Shen Liangyin’s ears and became a grating, unbearable noise.
Shen Liangyin had no desire to greet Suizi, so she turned around and left in a huff.
"What’s so great about a cheongsam. Bunch of country bumpkins have never seen the world. What’s there to envy? I have one too!"
Shen Liangyin decided then and there. Tomorrow she’d bring out her own cheongsam that had been stored away at bottom of her closet. This wasn’t Suizi’s personal runway. Why should Suizi be the only one to live it up?
Shen Liangyin intentionally avoided Suizi, making a big round in the factory. When she felt Suizi had probably left, she finally felt a little better.
"Deputy Director, Factory Director wishes to see you in his office."
"Got it, I’ll be there right away." Hearing that Yu Jingting wanted to see her alone, Shen Liangyin felt elated.
Instead of rushing over, she went straight to her office and rummaged through her makeup bag, applying touch-ups.
Today, she wore a cool-toned red lipstick that she saw Suizi applying just a few days ago. It looked lovely on Suizi, and Shen Liangyin had searched all the department stores to find the exact same shade.
After fixing her makeup and adjusting her clothes, feeling confident, she strode into the Factory Director’s office upstairs.
Shen Liangyin didn’t even realize that her makeup style was increasingly resembling Suizi’s.
Much like Suizi’s, the majority of her wardrobe now consisted of black, white, and gray basics. Shen Liangyin had given up on her flamboyantly colored closet and had begun to adopt a more intellectual style.
These decisions were made subconsciously. She didn’t even understand why she wanted to find the same lipstick as Suizi. It was all impulsive.
The door to the Factory Director’s office was left ajar. Shen Liangyin raised her hand and knocked gently twice, but there was no sound from inside.
"Factory Director Yu, you wanted to see me?" Shen Liangyin pushed the door open.
A strong smell of baked goods greeted her. On the table was a small box containing a few pieces of pastries, along with two glasses of milk. At a glance, one could tell they were treats that a young woman would like.
Yu Jingting stood with his back to her by the window, one hand on his hip, and didn’t turn around.
A thrill of joy surged in Shen Liangyin’s heart.
Could it be— could it be that he intentionally invited her to have "afternoon tea", just like those romantic scenes in the novels? It was a gesture rarely seen during this pragmatic era. If he was willing to do this for her, did it mean something?
"Oh, have you arrived?" Yu Jingting turned around.
All the romance that Shen Liangyin had just fancied burst into pieces.
"Director Yu, your face——"
Shen Liangyin looked at the shocking smudge of red at the corner of his mouth. There was only one smudge, but paired with his handsome face, it didn’t look bad at all. It was incredibly lascivious and carried a unique charm.
Ironically, the shade of red was identical to her lipstick. But it wasn’t a mark left by her.
Obviously, this handsome man had just been hiding in the office, doing something out of sight with another woman.
"What’s wrong with my face—— Damn!" Yu Jingting wiped the corner of his mouth with his thumb and raised his voice when he saw the red on his hand. "Chen Hansui! Look what you have done! Why are you hiding? Come out!"
Suizi awkwardly came from the office next door. The two offices were connected by a door in the wall. As soon as Suizi heard Shen Liangyin knock on the door, she ran away.
While Shen Liangyin was lost in her wild thoughts, Suizi erased her smeared lipstick as quickly as possible.
Suizi glared fiercely at Yu Jingting. Did he have no shame?
She had warned him that she was wearing lipstick today and not to nibble. But as soon as he saw her in his cheongsam, he wouldn’t let her protests stop him and began to bite.
Now it’s seen by others! So embarrassing! Suizi’s face flushed as if tipsy. Though she cared very little about face, she still had a sense of decorum.
"The Deputy Director is here. Have a seat. You both should just ignore me and continue your discussion."
This was clearly an attitude of a lady of the house. Even though it was polite, it hurt Shen Liangyin to hear it.
Yu Jingting gestured Shen Liangyin to sit on the sofa. While he was wiping the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, he pushed a cup of milk on the table to Suizi.
"I ate a lot at the wedding..." Suizi said in a small voice.
"Drink! Stop dawdling!" Yu Jingting glared at her.
Don’t think he doesn’t know that this girl has been eating very little lately in order to look good in her cheongsam. She couldn’t eat much at the wedding either.
Yu Jingting recently met a pastry chef. After establishing a good relationship with the chef, he could frequently bring some pastries to feed Suizi. Only when he was watching, she would not restrain herself from eating for the sake of keeping in shape.
"You are a tyrant." Suizi added in her heart, a tyrant who likes chubby women!
"Eat quickly. I will check later, if you dare to leave anything——"
"Okay okay, isn’t it fine that I eat? Please stop using your divine power, stop nagging me. After all, Director Shen is here, don’t let people laugh at us."
Suizi was afraid that he would say something embarrassing in front of Shen Liangyin, so she hurriedly crammed a piece of pastry into her mouth.
"I don’t mind it." Shen Liangyin’s voice carried a hint of hanging by a thread. She regretted coming here immensely and even suspected that Suizi and Yu Jingting were being affectionate so they could worse her feelings.
In fact, Shen Liangyin thought too much. This was just a normal day at Suizi’s house.
"What the hell! The lipstick isn’t coming off!" After rubbing for a long time, there was still some print left. Yu Jingting was so annoyed that he threw the handkerchief on the table. Suizi got up and casually wiped it off for him.
Being an old couple, these little movements were quite natural. But Shen Liangyin felt her lips becoming hot. She decided to throw this damn lipstick into the cesspit after going back!
"Director Yu, you didn’t invite me here just to watch your marital bliss, did you?" There was already a hint of hostility in Shen Liangyin’s words.
"Oh, right. I called you here to give you this." Yu Jingting gave Suizi a look, and Suizi raised an eyebrow. What was he up to?
His mischievous look told Suizi obviously, he was up to no good.
