I worked all day and by the time it was time to leave work, I was already starving. I quickly packed up my bag and prepared to go home. "Ding dong—" Suddenly, my phone received a message.
Electronic boyfriend: Dear, I'm a bit busy today and can't pick you up after work. Be careful on your way home. Then, a few cute cat emojis came at me.
"Electronic boyfriend" is the nickname I gave to my boyfriend Lin Haoming. Due to the nature of his work, we only see each other a few times a year. When we are in a long-distance relationship, we can only communicate through phone calls or text messages. Once, when I was shopping with a friend, we happened to mention this. My friend was shocked, "Your boyfriend is an Electronic boyfriend, right? Who dates someone exclusively online?"
Isn't it just an Electronic boyfriend? I murmured in disappointment as I looked at the text messages on my phone. I finally came home for a visit, and he had promised to pick me up from work and go home together, but now he's stood me up. If it weren't for the fact that he was the one who pursued me first in college, I would have thought I had been dating a robot all this time.
Forget it, I don't want to think about him anymore! I sighed deeply and angrily stuffed my phone into my pocket.
Suddenly, there was a burst of cheers from outside the door. "What's going on, what's going on, is tomorrow a holiday?" Apart from a sudden day off, I really couldn't think of any news that would make everyone cheer like this.
"No, it's not! It's the manager's wealthy boyfriend coming to pick her up after work, and he even brought flowers and afternoon tea. We all get to enjoy it together!"
Manager? I quickly searched for information about her in my mind. Is she the woman who completed several major projects perfectly within a month and became the youngest manager in our company before the age of thirty?
"Yes, it's her!" explained my colleague next to me in a gossipy tone. The manager's wealthy boyfriend comes to pick her up every few days, and each time he conveniently brings gifts for the office colleagues, making everyone have a good impression of him.
I held the phone in my pocket, thinking back to my Electronic boyfriend hidden in the screen, and sighed deeply once again. Sigh, comparing oneself to others only leads to frustration! "They are so loving! But this man is so mysterious, always staying in the car. I really want to see what a real handsome and rich man looks like..." She started to daydream, with pink bubbles appearing in her eyes. I couldn't help but shiver; women who daydream are truly terrifying...
Before long, I also became a lovesick woman. Of course, I wasn't interested in that wealthy boyfriend, but rather in the legendary, decisive and promising manager. I saw a tall, delicate-featured gorgeous woman carrying afternoon tea walking towards us. "You must be the new intern, I have high hopes for you!" she confidently and generously smiled at me, exuding the confidence of a strong woman, yet also revealing a stable sense of happiness in her eyes. OMG, I love this beautiful sister! She's beautiful, capable, and has a boyfriend who loves her so much. She's truly a winner in life! The key is that she's so gentle with me, a plain intern, that I'm starting to see pink bubbles in my eyes too.
I'm really curious about what the beautiful sister is thinking at this moment. I quickly grabbed her hand as she handed me the milk tea and said, "I'm so annoyed. How does that ugly guy always block me when I get off work, pretending to be my boyfriend..."
I felt like I had just discovered a shocking secret. So the guy downstairs isn't actually the manager's boyfriend?
"If it weren't for the sake of our parents' face, I really couldn't stand him anymore." After hearing her heartfelt words, I was truly surprised. I never expected that the handsome and wealthy boyfriend that everyone envied was just a nuisance she couldn't get rid of!
After the manager left, a colleague with a gossipy look on their face approached and said, "So, did you expect our office to have this kind of benefit? The manager is really lucky~" I smiled mysteriously, shrugged, and didn't answer. Then my phone beeped.
Electronic boyfriend: Baby, have you arrived home? I bought your favorite cake, and I'm on my way home too.
Before long, my phone chimed with a few message alerts. When I checked, they were all about my favorite snacks. I locked the screen, bid farewell to my colleagues with a smile, and said, "Every family has its own troubles. I'm off work first!" "Hey, you're smiling so brightly, could it be that you've found a partner?"
My colleague's shout came from behind, but I didn't pay attention. I'm going home to see my Electronic boyfriend!
