The cannon fodder female supporting role in the misplaced life

Chapter 247 Saving Love Brain 25

Soon after they finished eating the snail noodles and returned to the office, Xu Yingying was preparing to report on her morning work. At this moment, Lin Weiye suddenly came out in a hurry and said to Cheng Cheng, "Arrange for us to go to Huacheng later."

Special Assistant Cheng: "Okay, I'll arrange it right away. Mr. Lin, how long do we expect to stay?"

Lin Weiye: "It will take at least a week." He turned to Xu Yingying and said, "Cheng Chengdu and I will not be in the company these days, so you can take a look at the documents first. If there is nothing else, leave work early this afternoon to pick up Xinyi."

Xu Yingying didn't expect that Lin Weiye would suddenly go on a business trip. He didn't tell her when he had lunch just now. She probably encountered an emergency.

Xu Yingying: "Okay, I will take good care of myself and Xinyi, you can just focus on your work!"

Lin Weiye nodded and returned to the office. Fifteen minutes later, Xu Yingying saw Cheng Cheng enter Lin Weiye's office and then come out soon.

Cheng Cheng came out and tidied up while saying to Xu Yingying, "Assistant Xu, the red folders here are all the company's previous projects. You can take a look at them when you have time these days."

Xu Yingying: "Okay, I understand. Is there anything I can help you with?"

Assistant Cheng looked at his watch and said, "Not yet. We'll leave in half an hour. I'll call the office if you need anything."

Xu Yingying: "Okay, I understand."

Half an hour later, Xu Yingying saw Lin Weiye and Cheng Cheng leave.

Although she had been working for a long time in the morning and had not yet reported to Lin Weiye, Xu Yingying was not idle just because Lin Weiye and Cheng Cheng had left. She took the red folders that Cheng Cheng mentioned before leaving and started looking through them.

After watching two or three, I realized that it was time for Xinyi to go home from school.

After packing up, Xu Yingying went to pick up Lin Xinyi from school.

On the way to Lin Xinyi's kindergarten, Xu Yingying ran into someone she knew: Wu Yufei, the original owner's college classmate. They had been close in college, but soon after graduation, she got married, had children, and lost her job. Since Wu Yufei had just started working, they'd been seeing and contacting less frequently.

Wu Yufei looked at the woman in front of her with surprise, and said in a slightly trembling voice: "Yingying? Is it really you?" She widened her eyes, as if she couldn't believe her eyes, and her face was full of disbelief.

Xu Yingying was startled when she heard someone calling her name. Then she looked intently at the person in front of her, trying to match them up with the person in her memory. After a while, she finally showed an expression of sudden realization and replied with a smile, "So it's you! Long time no see!"

Wu Yufei asked curiously, "Where are you going in such a hurry?" Xu Yingying replied while sorting her bag, "I'm just about to pick up the kids from school."

Wu Yufei opened her mouth in surprise. "What? You've already given birth to a child?" Xu Yingying nodded gently, a hint of tenderness and happiness in her eyes. "Yes, I got married not long after graduation, and gave birth to this lovely little one the year after we got married."

Wu Yufei looked Xu Yingying up and down, praising her sincerely: "Yingying, you are becoming more and more feminine. Even after giving birth, you are still so beautiful. Back then, you were the undisputed flower of our department!" Faced with this compliment, Xu Yingying shook her head a little embarrassedly: "Oh, please stop teasing me. I have been a housewife for several years. How can I have any charm? How have you been recently?"

Wu Yufei sighed helplessly: "Oh, don't mention it. The company I worked for before suddenly said that it would lay off employees because of lack of profitability. Unfortunately, I was laid off. I'm currently looking for new job opportunities." As she spoke, her eyes revealed a hint of fatigue and confusion.

Xu Yingying: "Ah? Are you looking for a job recently?"

When Wu Yufei heard what Xu Yingying said, she said, "Yeah, so you're looking for it too?"

Xu Yingying frowned slightly and said, "Hey, look, my child is already in kindergarten! So, I've been thinking, I can't just stay at home like this forever, I have to go out and find a job! Otherwise, if I keep busy with pots and pans and the child all day, sooner or later I'll be out of touch with society!"

After hearing this, Wu Yufei, who was sitting next to her, nodded repeatedly in deep agreement, indicating that she fully agreed with Xu Yingying's idea.

Xu Yingying then asked, "By the way, I wonder how Yu Lili is doing now? Are you two still in touch?" As she spoke, she chatted with Wu Yufei, while trying to search deep in the original owner's memory for those classmates who had a good relationship with them in college.

Wu Yufei pursed her lips slightly, thought for a moment, and then replied, "Well... Actually, we used to keep in touch quite often, but then we all got busy with work, and gradually we drifted apart. It's been almost a year and a half since we last saw each other! But I do remember she mentioned it before, and it seems like she got a job at a clothing company. Why don't we take advantage of this weekend to ask her out and have a good time together!"

Xu Yingying's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she quickly responded, "Yeah, that's a great idea! That's settled then! But I'll have to trouble you to arrange the specific time. Just let me know when you're sure."

Wu Yufei readily agreed: "No problem, leave it to me! Once I finalize the time and place, I'll let you know as soon as possible!"

The two of them made a happy appointment.

As soon as Xu Yingying returned to the community after picking up Lin Xinyi, she saw Xu Lanlan carrying some fruits and talking to the security guard.

She took her daughter's hand and walked quickly towards the gate. She didn't intend to get involved with the original owner's sister any longer.

However, this scene did not escape Xu Lanlan's eyes. She rushed forward, blocking Xu Yingying's way, and said in a sweet voice, "Sister, please don't be angry with me, okay?" The voice was so coquettish that it gave people goose bumps.

Xu Yingying frowned slightly, raised her fair arm, and forcefully shook off Xu Lanlan's grip. Unexpectedly, Xu Lanlan lurched sideways, falling heavily to the ground with a dull thud. The fruit she was holding also fell with her, tumbling and scattering in all directions like a miniature rain of fruit.

At this moment, a group of neighbors gradually gathered at the gate of the community to watch the excitement. They whispered to each other, their eyes cast on the dispute between the sisters.
