In the private room, the furnishing was elegant. There was a big round table and a lounge on each side. An LCD TV was hanging on a wall covered with stylish wallpaper and playing a popular TV series.
There were all sorts of fruits, exquisite desserts, and tea on the tea table.
sitting on the sofa, Rosiley reached out for a piece of Crystal Osmanthus Cake and took a bite. Instantly, the fragrance of osmanthus permeated her mouth and nostrils.
“Yayoi, Xiaoxiao, it’s delicious. Would you like… a piece?” Rosiley turned her head and was suddenly stunned.
What was going on?
Both Yayoi and Ying Xiaoxiao were crying, the sound of their sobs rising and falling. They both looked extremely sad.
Rosiley quickly put down the cake in her hand and wiped her mouth before asking anxiously, “What’s wrong with you girls?”
Ying Xiaoxiao turned and looked at her, pointing at the TV with tears in her eyes. “The TV series is too moving. We couldn’t help but tear up.”
She looked in the direction her finger was pointing and found a couple on the TV screen quarreling. The woman ran angrily from one side of the road to the other, and as a result, a tragedy had happened.
As the man gasped, the woman was hit by a car, which sent her whole body soaring. She crashed heavily to the ground like a broken doll. Blood trickled slowly out from under her body.
Seeing such a scene, Rosiley’s heart trembled. Suddenly, for no reason, she became flustered. She quickly said, “Don’t watch such exaggerated TV dramas. You will go brain-dead.”
Ying Xiaoxiao was speechless.
So was Yayoi.
In fact, out of the three of them, Rosiley was the one who most enjoyed such silly clichéd TV dramas, and yet she was now telling them not to, claiming that it would make them brain-dead.
“Rosiley.” Ying Xiaoxiao wiped her tears and looked at Rosiley seriously. “You’ve watched so many of this kind of cliché TV dramas, so are you brain-dead?”
“I… ” Rosiley was gagged and could not reply.
“Xiaoxiao, do you think Rosiley looks like she’s brain-dead?” Yayoi also asked with a very solemn expression.
“Well… ” Ying Xiaoxiao scrutinized Rosiley, her hand pinching her chin as she answered very seriously. “since she said watching too much would make you brain-dead, she must have suffered that effect herself. That’s why she is warning us in such a tone.” Rosiley stared at them and chuckled drily twice, then said unhappily, “Alright, I know you two are making fun of me. Go and watch your TV drama then.”
Ying Xiaoxiao and Yayoi exchanged glances and burst into faint laughter.
“Are you angry?” Ying Xiaoxiao hit Rosiley with her elbow.
The latter squinted at her. “Am I such a petty person?”
Ying Xiaoxiao smiled. There was no reason for them to continue this topic. Instead, she turned back and glanced at the three men drinking wine. “How long do you think they will drink for?”
Hearing this, both Rosiley and Yayoi turned to look at them.
“They haven’t had much,” Rosiley said. “They are chatting about work.”
As soon as she mentioned this, Ying Xiaoxiao became displeased. “Didn’t we agree to celebrate on your behalf? Why has it turned into a work exchange session for the three of them?”
Rosiley smiled, seeming not to mind. “I’m just the new chairperson of the Group. What’s there to celebrate?”
In fact, it was something of a headache for her.
“Of course it’s worth celebrating. Just think. You’ve won today. Rorey, that b*tch, has lost. This time, we have finally taught her a good lesson. She stole another girl’s fiancé, and even wanted to seize someone else’s properties. She’s totally shameless and covetous!”
Ying Xiaoxiao’s words were full of disdain for Rorey Guo. As soon as she thought about Rorey Guo’s futile ambitions, she felt herself avenged.
