I obediently put on my slippers. "What are you doing here so late? You didn't even call. What if I was asleep?"
"I saw the lights on, so I came up to check," Zhou Chenyu said as he took off his coat. "Still working late?"
"Yeah, revising the design." I pulled him into the bedroom and pointed at the computer. "Almost done, take a look."
I studied interior design, and although Zhou Chenyu was studying law, he could still offer some insights. The projects we worked on included not just interiors but also various events. This time, it was a design for an auction venue.
Zhou Chenyu glanced over and pointed out an issue. "Your design is a bit too overpowering. In this kind of venue, the focus should be on the auction items, not the venue itself."
Not bad; even someone outside the field could spot the problem.
"Did the supervisor say the same thing? Why didn't he just tell me directly?"
I revised the design based on Zhou Chenyu's suggestions and took it to my supervisor the next day. After reviewing it, my supervisor looked surprised. "Did you really do this?"
"Of course."
He placed the proposal on the table. "Xiao Wen, do you know what your biggest problem is? You're too superficial, always favoring flashy designs while neglecting the essence."
Superficial? Did he just call me superficial?
"This time it's good; keep it up, and you'll be a supervisor in no time," he finally smiled at me.
He was genuinely happy for me.
So...
"Supervisor, you used to criticize me all the time. Why didn't you point out the problems directly?"
"What else would you like me to do? Does it make sense for me to target a young girl like you every day?"
That made sense.
I no longer cursed him in my heart.
"Thank you, Supervisor."
Back at my desk, I immediately sent a WeChat message to Zhou Chenyu, letting him know that the proposal was approved.
Zhou Chenyu replied with a "Congratulations" sticker.
Is that it? How cold.
"Is that all you have to say?" I couldn't help but send a voice message.
Zhou Chenyu responded, "What else do you want?"
"I secured the proposal, there's a bonus, and we should celebrate with dinner tonight. Maybe throw in a little reward for me."
Zhou Chenyu simply replied, "Sure."
After dinner, on our way back, Zhou Chenyu suddenly asked, "What kind of reward do you want?"
I leaned closer to his ear and whispered a few words.
Zhou Chenyu frowned, "Is that really a small reward?"
Yin Cheng and Li Xiang had reconciled again.
Li Xiang, though silly and stubbornly naive, was truly devoted to Yin Cheng.
Ever since Yin Cheng got upset about him driving female colleagues home, he wouldn't even let me in his car anymore.
I complained to Zhou Chenyu, "Li Xiang is such a bully. While you were away these past few days, he made my life difficult."
Zhou Chenyu laughed, "You can still be bullied?"
"Hey, what's wrong with you? When I come to you for help, you should always take my side, regardless of who's right or wrong!"
Zhou Chenyu nodded with a smile, "Of course. Next time I see him, I'll stand up for you."
Saying this, he pulled me into his embrace. "Now let’s talk about something serious."
"Okay."
"Tomorrow I'm going to meet my parents for dinner with your family. Let's settle our matters then." He looked serious as he spoke.
"Is this really a proposal? It lacks any sense of ceremony!"
"You think you can just marry me like this? Not a chance!"
"No matter what, there has to be a proper proposal ceremony. First, you kneel down. If I refuse, you ask again, and if I refuse a second time, only then will I agree on the third."
Zhou Chenyu nodded slightly, "Alright, I'll do as you say."
"And after we get married, you have to listen to everything I say. No interfering with me, and you must compliment me every day. You've never praised me before."
Zhou Chenyu recalled, "Have I really never praised you?"
"No, you always say I'm unreasonable. You need to make it up to me; otherwise, I won't marry you."
He smiled and nodded, "Alright, I'll make it up to you, but I have one condition too."
I crossed my arms and said proudly, "Go ahead."
