Chapter 245 Formal Termination of Contract
In what seemed like the blink of an eye, Ji Meng had reversed the vehicle and turned it around.
On a cold winter night, the young couple embraced each other tenderly.
Yu Huan slowly released his embrace, gazing at Lin Yourong's eyes, which were as clear as autumn water, peeking out from between the brim of her hat and her mask, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.
"Honey, see you next weekend."
"Okay, see you next weekend~"
Lin Yourong took a step back and waved gently.
Seeing the relaxed state of the young couple, Sister Ru took a closer look at Lin Yourong and teased, "Not bad, Susu, you seem to have a very good mindset now."
Yu Huan kept smiling and continued the conversation: "Things are almost done. After wandering for so long, I can finally go home and stay for a while. Of course I'm in a good mood."
Lin Yourong nodded slightly and said in a light tone, "You're right!"
Yu Huan took a step and slowly walked around to the other side of the car, opening the passenger and rear doors for them.
He watched Lin Yourong gracefully get into the passenger seat and whispered, "Wife, remember to send me a message after you land in Shanghai."
"Okay, but I probably won't arrive in Shanghai until almost midnight, so you should get some rest." Lin Yourong replied while fastening her seatbelt.
"I can go to bed early, but you have to send the message." Yu Huan leaned down and looked at Ji Meng, who was holding the steering wheel in the driver's seat: "Thank you for your hard work today, female driver."
Ji Meng turned around, smiled and waved, "It's no trouble at all, bye-bye, Mr. Y!"
"Bye-bye." Yu Huan smiled and closed the car door.
Through the car window, he saw Lin Yourong take off her mask, a sweet smile on her lips, waving goodbye to him.
Yu Huan lightly touched her lips with her finger, raised her chin slightly at a 15-degree angle, and blew her a kiss.
The car slowly started and gradually disappeared from Yu Huan's sight.
A moment later, only a bright red taillight remained.
A strange feeling welled up inside him, as if he could sense Lin Yourong watching him in the rearview mirror.
Standing under the dim streetlights, Yu Huan raised her arm high and waved to the departing BMW.
He took a deep breath of the cold air, watched the taillights disappear from sight, felt a little empty, turned around, and walked into the dimly lit stairwell.
A moment later, Yu Huan stepped into the house, locked the front door, shuffled to the TV cabinet in her slippers, and turned off the power to the TV and DVD player.
A sudden silence fell over the area.
She then took out her pajamas and a change of underwear from the bedroom, intending to take a hot shower to relax her tired body.
However, when his gaze inadvertently fell on the wall clock, he realized it was still early, so he put his clothes on the sofa and moved to the guest room.
With a "click," the light was switched on, and the room, which was already dimly lit by the orange streetlights, was instantly as bright as day.
Yu Huan's gaze lingered on the two bags of sound-absorbing cotton for a moment before she went to the bedside.
He stroked his chin, glancing at the bed in front of him.
Solid wood beds are usually detachable, and there's no mattress in the way.
Yu Huan had a sudden thought: she could simply dismantle the oak bed and find another place to put it—
For example, under the bed in the guest room.
With this thought in mind, Yu Huan took off his coat, casually tossed it onto the sound-absorbing cotton, rolled up his sleeves, and got to work.
Not long after.
He had already disassembled the entire bed, moving each part to the guest bedroom and stuffing them all under the bed.
Afterwards, Yu Huan was slightly sweaty.
He then took a small stool and sat down next to the coffee table in the living room to rest for a while.
Looking through the doorway at the somewhat empty second bedroom, a satisfied smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
He decided to keep the long table, and move the small wardrobe from the second bedroom to the guest bedroom.
The solid wood wardrobe is too heavy, and it's really difficult for him to move it by himself. Since his foot injury has just healed, he'll wait until Xie Gouhua helps deliver it tomorrow before asking him to help move it.
Yu Huan played on her phone for a while, rested for fifteen minutes, then grabbed her clothes from the sofa and took a refreshing hot shower.
After drying my hair, I sat on the balcony as usual, turned on my laptop, and started working intently.
As time quietly passed, Yu Huan gradually felt a chill coming from his legs. He rubbed his legs from time to time, trying to dispel the needle-like chill, but the effect was not significant.
It will definitely get colder and colder in the future, so I feel like I should buy an electric heater and a blanket.
Fortunately, he has now left campus and is no longer a fragile college student.
My body, being in its early twenties, can hold up for now.
When she finished what she was doing, Yu Huan turned her head and looked out the glass window at the dark, inky sky.
After letting his sore eyes relax for a bit, he picked up his phone next to the mouse pad, turned on the screen, and took a look.
It was 10:53 p.m. when he turned off his laptop and stood up to stretch his body.
After relieving myself in the bathroom, I took off my clothes and went to bed.
I was idly browsing Tianya Forum when I received a message from Lin Yourong at 11:40.
Honey, I've arrived in Shanghai!
Yu Huan squinted her sleepy eyes, quickly typed a message, and clicked send: 'Okay, I'm going to sleep. You should get some rest too.'
"good night!"
Yu Huan then tossed her phone onto her pillow and quickly fell into a deep sleep.
The moon moves, the clouds fly, the sun rises at dusk.
As the sun gradually sets in the west, the entire city of Xingcheng is immersed in a dazzling blend of golden and orange-red hues.
At the weekly executive meeting on Monday, President Xu and Editor-in-Chief Lin officially finalized the decision to expand the staff of the new media department.
A new round of competitive selection and research for the new media department is about to begin.
So, even though the clock had already leisurely pointed to 5:30, Yu Huan, unusually, did not leave on time.
Amidst some noise, the sound of office chairs moving could be heard throughout the workspace.
While her colleagues were leaving for the day, Yu Huan remained seated in front of her computer, her fingers flying across the keyboard.
Soon, he touched the mouse with his right hand, his eyes focused, and checked the document again and again.
After careful revisions and confirmation, he tapped his index finger and sent the research proposal document to the HR department's email address.
At that moment, a feeling of relief washed over me from head to toe.
Yu Huan leaned back and stretched out a big yawn.
He looked around and saw that besides himself, there were only two other people in the workspace.
Niu Ma Wei Quan.
There's also Wang Xianjiao, the little loudspeaker.
Just then, Little Trumpet came into his line of sight and walked over quickly.
After standing in front of the desk, she smiled excitedly and said softly, "Brother Yu, Brother Yu, good news!"
Yu Huan raised both hands, interlaced her fingers behind her head, and crossed her legs under the table.
Seeing Wang Xianjiao's energetic state, I couldn't help but feel a little curious: "What's wrong? Is there some good news?" Wang Xianjiao giggled and said, "Great news! At 2:30 this afternoon, Lin Su released a statement on Weibo, officially terminating her contract with Canwen!"
“Oh, I know that.” Yu Huan nodded.
Seeing his calm and composed demeanor, Wang Xianjiao couldn't help but suppress her own smile.
He changed the subject: "Brother Yu, you know that's all. I just wanted to let you know."
Upon hearing this, Yu Huan was left speechless, unsure whether to laugh or cry.
After a moment's thought, Wang Xianjiao continued, "There's another piece of gossip these past few days. Apparently, a popular male contestant from 'The Voice of China' is also threatening to terminate his contract, but Canwen's side has directly replied that there's no room for negotiation and they won't release him until the contract expires. This is in stark contrast to my Susu's situation!"
"Is that so?" Yu Huan raised an eyebrow slightly.
After a moment's thought, I vaguely remember this.
This person should be Bald Ping An, because he sings patriotic songs and has appeared on the Spring Festival Gala five times.
However, apart from that, he was indeed somewhat obscure and had no works of his own, so Yu Huan did not have a clear impression of him.
"I'm not sure either, I can only say to be rational when observing this!"
Wang Xianjiao chuckled again:
"However, my Susu terminated her contract without saying a word. Even the official Weibo account of Canwen posted a message saying 'Let's part amicably' in response. Isn't my Susu truly a flower of wealth and beauty?"
“Indeed, it is a flower of worldly riches and honor.” Yu Huan nodded in deep agreement.
Now she can be associated with the word "expensive".
As her husband, Yu Huan will undoubtedly become a true socialite once he rises to prominence.
Wang Xianjiao suddenly waved her hand and said in a light and cheerful voice, "I have to go now, I'm rushing home for dinner, bye-bye, Brother Yu."
"Okay, bye-bye." Yu Huan nodded in response.
His gaze slowly returned from Wang Xianjiao's retreating figure. He glanced at the lower right corner of the computer screen; it was already a little past six.
With a quick click of the mouse, the computer screen gradually dimmed, signaling the end of the workday.
After tidying up his desk, Yu Huan stood up and found that Wei Quan had also stood up at the same time.
The two walked towards the elevator, one after the other.
Wei Quan quickened his pace and soon caught up with Yu Huan.
Yu Huan pressed the down button and turned around.
With a smile on his face, he nodded slightly to Wei Quan: "Wei Quan, you voluntarily work overtime every day and are always the last to leave. You are truly a model worker in our department."
"Brother Yu, you flatter me! I just wanted to do my job better." Wei Quan replied modestly.
Upon hearing Wei Quan's reply, Yu Huan couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly.
This guy has been manipulated by him so much that his eloquence has quietly improved.
However, those who need to be manipulated will still be manipulated.
Yu Huan's face immediately lit up with an appreciative smile. He patted Wei Quan's arm and said softly:
"Wei Quan, I've seen your hard work, and this pursuit of excellence is exactly what our department needs. As a role model for everyone, you must continue to maintain this spirit; the future is bright!"
"Brother Yu, you flatter me!" Wei Quan replied cheerfully, then seemed to remember something and asked curiously, "I heard that our new media department is going to transfer staff to expand the team?"
“That’s right.” Yu Huan nodded affirmatively.
The elevator doors opened with a "ding," and he was the first to step into the elevator.
Wei Quan followed closely behind, watching Yu Huan press the button for the first floor.
He hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help asking again, "Brother Yu, how many people will you be adding?"
"The first expansion is to twenty-six people," Yu Huan said frankly, without keeping anyone in suspense.
"So many people were added on the first try..." Wei Quan scratched his head, feeling the elevator plummeting downwards, and wondered to himself.
The new media department currently has only twelve people, including Director Li, and this expansion will add fourteen more.
It seems that the new media department is truly going to become a major department of the newspaper in the future.
He asked casually, "Brother Yu, won't the expansion of the department create new management positions?"
The elevator did not stop for the entire journey.
The sudden fall halted, and the door slowly opened with a crisp "ding."
As Yu Huan stepped out, she was fully aware of the unspoken meaning behind Wei Quan's words.
He smiled and said slowly:
"Regarding the establishment of management positions, the specific arrangements will depend on a comprehensive consideration of each individual's abilities and performance, as well as the department's overall development strategy. Director Li and I have both witnessed your abilities and contributions. If a suitable management position becomes available, you will definitely be an important candidate for us."
The two walked side by side to the outside of the Lianhe Zaobao building.
The pie in the sky is drawn.
Definitely next time.
He turned around, patted Wei Quan on the shoulder, and continued:
"But now, our top priority is to ensure the stable operation and continued development of the new media department."
Wei Quan nodded thoughtfully: "I understand. See you tomorrow, Brother Yu. I'm going to wait for the bus."
"Okay, see you tomorrow." Yu Huan smiled and nodded in greeting.
The two said goodbye in front of the building, one on the left and one on the right, each heading in a different direction.
Yu Huan pondered to himself.
Although he and this ox had a bad relationship in their past lives, its current performance is quite commendable and acceptable.
It has to be said that when you reach a certain level of success, you are surrounded by good people.
Yu Huan walked leisurely towards the bike shed, and with a casual glance, he was surprised to find two bouquets of bright red flowers on the seat of his electric scooter.
One bunch is filled with deep blue irises, and the other with vibrant red roses.
He approached and examined it closely.
From the bouquet of irises, I pulled out a pink card with a red heart tucked inside. It read:
'Dedicated to the world's most handsome leader!'
'192373***'
Looking at the nine-digit number, Yu Huan thought to himself, "This must be a QQ number."
iris?
"The cunning Zero!"
Yu Huan mumbled something to herself and looked around.
Nearby and in the distance, small groups of people were walking, but no suspicious figures were found lingering.
He put the card back into the iris bouquet and then picked up the red rose to examine it.
Sure enough, a small, snow-white card was also tucked inside:
I mustered all my courage and tried to seize the opportunity, just so we could get to know each other!
This is my WeChat ID: queen123
Yu Huan put the card back, held the bouquet of flowers to her nose and smelled them, and stroked her chin with the other hand.
It does smell quite good.
However, the one giving the roses is definitely a girl.
