Chapter 310 – She didn’t consider the meat’s feelings or his feelings at all (3)
As the new year approached, big companies began to prepare for their annual meetings. Song Corporation wasn’t an exception.
The HR manager even specially came to Song Tingshen’s office to ask him for instructions. Although the HR manager didn’t explicitly ask about it, he wanted to know if Mrs. Song would be coming. If the boss’s wife was coming, then there had to be adjustments to the events and arrangements. He was worried about the situation where they planned as if the boss’s wife wouldn’t come, and then she did. If that happened, they would be in a great hurry to make last minute changes. Thus, the HR manager would force himself to come over and inquire with Song Tingshen every year.
Song Tingshen happened to see the post-its drawn by Ruan Xia on his desk. He didn’t like to drink water, but seeing the reminders she left behind, he would drink a few cups of water every day now. He picked up a cup, took a sip, and said, “My wife will come that day, but you don’t have to specially prepare anything, just leave the seat next to mine free.”
Mrs. Song had never appeared at the year end meetings. The HR manager froze in surprise for a moment. He was thankful for his cautiousness. Fortunately, he had come here to ask. Otherwise, what if they accidentally slighted the boss’s wife?
This year was special to Song Corporation. It had passed a criss and was about to reach another peak. Song Tingshen’s personal life had also taken a turn for the better.
He naturally wanted to share everything with Ruan Xia. When he got home, he mentioned this matter to Ruan Xia. “The company’s annual meeting will be held next Friday. Come with me.”
Ruan Xia hadn’t thought about this at all. She had been doing market research lately and had been very busy. She was stunned by his words.
Song Tingshen glanced at her and quietly asked, “You don’t want to go?”
Ruan Xia noticed that his tone was a bit dangerous and hastily shook her head. “Not at all. I’m just surprised. I’ve never gone before, right?”
Song Tingshen reached out and stroked her long hair. “This year is different. I’ve already said to the HR department that you’ll be there.”
So if she didn’t attend, he would lose face?
Ruan Xia had gone to Song Corporation more than once, but this would be her first time attending such an occasion. Her first reaction was to shake off Song Tingshen’s hand, run to the cloakroom, and step onto the weight scale. She took a deep breath and waited for the ruthless female voice to report her weight and body fat percentage.
Winter was the easiest season to gain weight. The colder the weather, the better one’s appetite and desire to eat something to warm up. She wasn’t an exception to that. She had a craving for hot pot every day. Because of this, she had avoided weighing herself for half a month. In her mind, as long as she didn’t weigh herself, then her weight hadn’t changed.
Song Tingshen followed her into the cloakroom.
What he saw was Ruan Xia’s sad face. She looked as if she had nothing left to live for.
She crouched down next to the weight scale. “Ah, I gained 1 kilogram. It’s only been half a month!”
Song Tingshen comforted her, “You’re still very skinny. There’s not much meat when I hug you. It’s good if your weight increases. It’ll feel more comfortable to hug you.”
Ruan Xia glared at him. “Just because it’ll feel comfortable for you to hug, I should gain weight?! What kind of logic is that? Don’t even think about it. I want to wear beautiful clothing. I want to show my face in front of all your employees!”
“Haven’t they already seen you?”
“That’s not the same!” Ruan Xia decided. “There’s still a week. I’ll go on a diet starting tomorrow and return to my original weight.”
Song Tingshen’s face showed his regret. It hadn’t been easy for her to gain 1 kg, and yet, she was going to abandon it without hesitation. She didn’t consider the meat’s feelings or his feelings at all.
