I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week

Chapter 3119: Chapter 3111: The Right to Choose

"Don’t say that, women your age are in demand. If it were someone else, they might not be able to handle it."

"You’ve been through so much, how can ordinary people compare with you?"

"I’m just a pure-hearted young man, don’t tarnish my reputation."

"Pure-hearted young man, you? Just eat up."

As she spoke, Xu Wen picked up a piece of meat and placed it on Lin Yi’s plate, "Eat more, I’m on a diet."

"Then you should be careful. With dieting, it’s not about losing weight everywhere; you might lose weight in places you shouldn’t."

Xu Wen held her chopsticks and unconsciously puffed out her chest, "Don’t worry, I’m naturally gifted, only losing weight where needed."

"Sister Wen, you’re awesome!"

"Hurry up and eat."

Lin Yi ate quickly, and after putting down his chopsticks, Xu Wen considerately handed him a napkin.

After wiping his mouth, Lin Yi stood up and said:

"You get busy, I’ll get back to work."

"I’ll be here today, the work at our branch is up to you, work a bit harder."

"What’s hard about it? You’re paying my salary anyway."

"Go, go, go, get to work."

Lin Yi turned to leave but was stopped by Xu Wen.

"What else?"

"Do you have plans tonight? I’m arranging dinner for the guys who came to help. If you’re free, you should come with me." Xu Wen said:

"I’m a woman, might find it hard to handle the situation, with so many people."

"I’m just idle, nothing tonight, but I still think it’s better to let Brother Qiang and Li Xin go."

"Them?" Xu Wen looked at Lin Yi and thought:

"Old Sun is honest and doesn’t talk much at the table. Li Xin is a bit flashy, after drinking, he says whatever comes to mind, I’m afraid it won’t be pleasant. In this case, you’re more reliable."

"If you really want me to go, we’ll go together."

Lin Yi said:

"I’ve been staying here with you for so long, they might already be gossiping behind our backs. They’re all from different branches. If these rumors spread, your reputation in the district might be affected."

Previously, she didn’t think much about it, but after Lin Yi pointed it out, Xu Wen realized it could be a possibility.

She didn’t expect him to be so considerate, thinking of these things.

"Let’s do as you say," Xu Wen said:

"I’ll call Old Sun and Li Xin too."

"No problem."

After discussing the matter, Lin Yi left the Peace Road branch.

Back in the district, he called Sun Qiang.

Delivering his own parcels himself.

The day’s parcel deliveries were completed smoothly.

There were even many female homeowners who insisted on giving fruits and mineral water, refusing was not an option.

After eight in the evening, the courier car came to collect parcels, marking the end of the day’s work.

Xu Wen had already informed the two about dinner arrangements, which would be at a hotel below Xinsheng Garden.

Although it wasn’t high-end, for common people’s spending, it was decent for treating guests.

By the time the three arrived, Xu Wen was already seated with the helpers, with a few cases of beer on the table.

Reaching the private room, Li Xin naturally sat to Xu Wen’s left.

Sun Qiang was considerate as well, leaving the right spot for Lin Yi and sitting to the side instead.

But Lin Yi pulled out a chair first, sitting apart from Xu Wen and leaving Sun Qiang to sit beside her.

Xu Wen glanced at Lin Yi, but he didn’t look back, settling comfortably and greeting the other couriers from different branches.

Xu Wen smiled, habitually fixing her hair, understanding Lin Yi’s intention.

If avoiding suspicion, do it thoroughly.

"Boss lady, well done," Li Xin whispered next to Xu Wen.

"What do you mean well done?"

"Look at him, he’s sitting next to Brother Qiang," Li Xin said slyly:

"I guess you turned him down, didn’t give him a good face, looks like he’s retreating."

Xu Wen was a bit helpless, unsure how to describe Li Xin.

A grown man, always thinking about these things, his perspective is far different from Lin Yi’s.

Even if one day, something did happen between them, he’d probably be clueless like an idiot.

"Hmm," Xu Wen gently nodded.

Even though nothing substantial happened, maintaining this ambiguous relationship, she wanted to avoid letting others know as much as possible.

"That’s exactly what you should do," Li Xin, with a cigarette clipped, said smugly:

"Boss lady, I’ve met many people, and people like him are clearly no good, you should not get too close to him, better to find a reason to fire him."

"Stop bad-mouthing others," Xu Wen said:

"And, don’t call me boss lady anymore, find another title."

Xu Wen’s voice was cold.

If it weren’t for Lin Yi, the store would’ve gone under long ago, truly clueless.

"Alright."

Li Xin grinned, thinking Xu Wen took his advice.

"Sister Wen, haven’t you handled your paperwork yet? It’s better to handle such matters sooner."

"I know what to do, just eat."

"Understood."

Although most people at the table didn’t know each other, under Lin Yi’s mediation and a few drinks, everyone became quite friendly.

After the meal, which wrapped up past midnight,

seeing the scene before her, Xu Wen felt that without Lin Yi, she really wouldn’t have managed the situation.

Sigh...

Xu Wen shook her head silently, feeling that without a man around, she really couldn’t manage.

Since it was a residential area, there weren’t many people on the street after they came out.

Everyone exchanged polite words, then waved goodbye.

Lin Yi also knew his duties, ensuring all the helpers left safely.

In the end, only he and Xu Wen were left.

"You drank quite a bit, you can’t drive now, right?"

"Just ten or so bottles, it’ll all be gone after a trip to the bathroom."

"Stop talking nonsense," Xu Wen said:

"If you’re not worried about gossip, you can stay at my place tonight, or you can call a driver. It’s your choice."

Xu Wen didn’t wait for Lin Yi’s decision, picked up her bag, and walked away.

Displaying a woman’s pride to the fullest.

Lin Yi touched his chin. In this situation, if he walked away, it would be like a monk ignoring temptations.

After Xu Wen walked some ten meters ahead, she realized there was no movement behind, and she got a bit anxious.

Did he really leave?

The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong, so Xu Wen couldn’t help but turn around to check.

There was no one!

Lin Yi had indeed left!

Sigh...

With a sigh, Xu Wen didn’t think much more of it.

It wasn’t anyone else’s fault, just her own wishful thinking.

With uncertainty, Xu Wen carried her bag and despondently walked home.

But just as she exited the elevator, she saw Lin Yi standing at her door.

"You, why are you still here?!"
