As the end of the workday approached, Xu Pingliang once again came to the duty room, just in time to block Lin Fei, who had just woken up and was about to leave, at the door.

“The previous issues were all because of that kid Wang Minghui stirring up trouble.

He’s been fired now, and I’ve also recommended you to Mr.

Guo to take over as the supervisor of Team Three.”

“In short, let’s turn the page on the past.

Tonight, it’s just the two of us, brothers.

I’ve already booked the place, let’s head out now, I guarantee you’ll be satisfied tonight.”

“Manager Xu, I appreciate your kindness, and as colleagues, I really shouldn’t refuse you.”

Lin Fei sighed slightly with a hint of regret and firmly declined, “I can’t tonight!

I have plans that absolutely cannot be postponed.”

It’s said that you shouldn’t slap a smiling face, and as for Xu Pingliang, his immediate boss, Lin Fei had no intention of burning bridges entirely.

In fact, Lin Fei really wanted to go and have fun with Xu Pingliang (after all, it wouldn’t cost him anything).

The only reason he refused was that before Xu Pingliang came to find him, Lin Fei had received a “threatening” text message from Mu Shanshan.

“Come home tonight, we need to talk.

If you don’t come back, or you come back late, then don’t bother coming back ever.”

Considering Mu Shanshan’s decisive nature, unlikely to change her mind for anyone or anything, plus being caught red-handed by Mu Shanshan, the legally-wedded wife, in the parking garage that morning, Lin Fei really dared not stay out tonight.

“Brother Luo, that’s no fun.”

Xu Pingliang, unaware of Lin Fei’s predicament, frowned slightly in dissatisfaction, “We did have some small conflicts before, but that’s all in the past now.

I really want to be friends with you.

If you don’t give me this face tonight, it means you’re still mad at me, and then I’ll definitely have to treat you to this drink!

In short, I’ve booked the venue already, it’s up to you whether we go or not!”

“Why don’t you pick another day!”

Faced with Xu Pingliang’s persistence, Lin Fei felt quite helpless.

“We’re both married men, who doesn’t have inconvenient times?

Why can’t there be some mutual understanding?”

Just as Lin Fei was pondering how to tactfully decline Xu Pingliang, or just kick him to the curb to end the matter, his phone suddenly rang.

It was Shen Lexuan calling.

“Just in time.”

With a sigh of relief, Lin Fei immediately answered the phone and complained before anything else could be said, “Xuanxuan, I can’t have dinner with you tonight.

Manager Xu has booked a place and insisted on treating me to drinks, saying he’ll definitely satisfy me tonight, and I really don’t know how to refuse him.

So, you’ll have to dine alone tonight.”

“…Xu Pingliang?”

After receiving Lin Fei’s confirmation, Shen Lexuan let out a deep sigh on the other end of the phone, “I’m calling him right now, and you are not allowed to go with him!

If you dare go, I—I won’t forgive you!”

“Brother Luo, Brother Luo, I never knew you were under such tight control by your wife.”

Seeing Lin Fei hang up the phone, Xu Pingliang smirked teasingly at him, “You, ah, you are still too young, telling everything to your woman, sooner or later you’re going to face big troubles.

I’m telling you as someone who’s been there, listen to my advice, you can’t always be totally honest with women.

Now that you’re also a supervisor, you’ll definitely have more social obligations, you need to learn how to lie.”
