Reincarnation: Multi-skilled Goddess Is So Beautiful!-Chapter 979 - 979 Encounter
979 Encounter
Dou Yunhao’s girlfriend had also returned to the country and she worked in the research lab just like him. The two of them planned on getting married during the winter break.
Dou Xiangling and Ian were getting married on the first day of October.
They had already decided on the date a long time ago.
After telling Elder Dou and the others about the date, Zi Yi did not leave right away. Instead, she stayed behind to read and chat with Elder Dou about some books.
!!Fourth Madam brought up Dou Yue’er during lunchtime.
“She has completely forgotten me. Initially, she would call every day telling me what she was doing. Eventually, it became that she only called once every few days. Now, she doesn’t even call and it’s been over a week.”
Dou Yue’er was at an Egyptian pyramid with the archeological team now. Zi Yi smiled and said, “Fourth Aunt, don’t worry. She’s with the archeological team, so I’m sure she’s safe.”
“I’m not worried about her physical well-being. She’s already forgotten about me now. In the future, if she does this professionally, she won’t call me for months at a time.”
Second and Third Madam Dou had first-hand experience regarding the matter.
Third Madam said, “Xiangling does that too. She leaves for a few months but only calls me a handful of times.”
Second Madam chimed in. “Fourth Sister, you just have to get used to it. After the kids grow up, they have more things to do on their own.”
Fourth Madam said, “I’m just not used to the idea of her growing up. In my heart, she’s still that same annoying, little girl.”
Everyone could not help laughing.
After chatting for some time, Zi Yi left.
Before she knew it, the international racing competition would take place, so Zi Yi planned on going to the club to prepare.
Unexpectedly, she received a call from Dou Zerui shortly after leaving.
It sounded noisy over the phone and Dou Zerui was probably at work.
“Hello?” answered Zi Yi.
Dou Zerui asked shamelessly, “Do you still have tickets for the race?”
Zi Yi was caught by surprise. “Didn’t you buy them?”
Dou Zerui replied powerlessly, “I don’t even want to talk about it. When you released the tickets on the official site, I was in a meeting. By the time I was done, they were sold out.”
[Futuristic Racing Club] had released details about the sale of tickets a day in advance. The next day, the moment they were released, they were sold out. It really came down to each buyer’s internet speed. Also, the tickets were sold globally. Even though 20, 000 tickets were available, they were gone in the blink of an eye.
Zi Yi got the manager robot to save over 20 tickets. Since Dou Zerui had asked, she replied, “I still have some spare, so you can just go in.”
Dou Zerui was delighted. Zi Yi could hear people asking him if there were more tickets on the other end of the phone.
Zi Yi had already promised to save some tickets for Dou Zerui’s friends and so she said, “Tell them to log into the official site with their IDs. The system will release tickets to them.”
The IT guys were so excited that they shouted in joy.
Someone offered to buy Zi Yi dinner, but she said no.
After hanging up the phone, Zi Yi headed to the club.
Meanwhile, on Dou Zerui’s end.
All the guys were unable to buy tickets previously. Now that they suddenly had tickets, they laughed and hugged each other as they jumped excitedly, overwhelmed with joy.
Yang Peng made a suggestion. “We have closed a big project and now we have racing tickets. This calls for a celebration.”
Zhang Yang replied, “I totally agree. It’s a joyous occasion, so we should celebrate.”
Dou Zerui agreed that they ought to celebrate, so he picked up the phone to make reservations.
Zhou Yulin hurriedly said, “Let’s have seafood. I haven’t eaten seafood in ages.”
Dou Zerui made reservations at a seafood restaurant.
At the same time, Situ Qin received a call from Zhang Ya.
Zhang Ya said over the phone, “Situ Qin, we booked a table at the seafood restaurant for your farewell party, so you have to come.”
Situ Qin did not want to go.
Zhang Ya said, “Li Yong has already calculated your dividends. Since you were too busy to come to the office, other than just getting together to say goodbye, you can also use the opportunity to collect your money. Are you sure you’re going to say no to the money?”
Situ Qin would never say no to the dividends. She had worked diligently for the past few months and she did not work for free. She pondered for a moment and then agreed to go.
She had already made up her mind. She did not mind eating with them but she would definitely leave the moment she was done. If any of them brought up Zi Yi, she would not play nice.
Situ Qin went over to the restaurant at five o’clock in the evening.
It was a renowned seafood restaurant located in the capital. It was large but it did not have private rooms. However, the atmosphere was excellent. Lots of people came over to eat their seafood.
“Situ Qin, over here.”
Situ Qin walked up to Zhang Ya and the others and sat down.
Zhang Ya said in a griping tone, “Situ Qin, why are you suddenly quitting? We have worked together for so long, and I really like you. I wonder if I’ll be able to find anyone as good as you in the future.”
Situ Qin laughed coldly inside. More like wondering if she could encounter someone as stupid as her.
The three other colleagues also tried to make her stay.
Situ Qin remained determined to quit.
After the seafood was served, Zhang Ya poured Situ Qin some wine.
As they raised their glasses, Li Yong said, “Situ Qin, even though we’ll miss you, you have something more important to do, so we can’t stop you. Allow me to offer a toast to you. I hope you can come back to the company after you are done settling personal matters.”
Situ Qin promptly turned him down. “I’ll pass on the wine. I have to leave early to take care of something.”
She did not even feel like staying for dinner after hearing all the hypocritical things they were saying.
Meanwhile, at the other table.
The moment the men entered the restaurant, they looked around.
Zhang Yang was sitting beside Dou Zerui. He elbowed Dou Zerui and said, “Doesn’t that girl look good?”
The rest of the guys turned to sneak a peek with their eyes glinting.
“Not bad at all. She looks clean and refreshing. I’m sure she’ll make a good wife.”
“She kind of looks like the faculty belle. She also looks clean and refreshing.”
“I really want to ask for her number.”
Dou Zerui touched his forehead and said, “Can you f*ckers cut it out? You are starting to look like perverts.”
Zhou Yulin said angrily, “What do you mean by perverts? We are openly admiring beauty. You are destined to stay single for the rest of your life, I tell you. I don’t know why God gave you such a pretty face.”
Dou Zerui felt annoyed. “Hey, watch it. Talk if you want to, but did you have to curse me? What makes you think I can’t find a girl?”
Zhou Yulin replied, “Then use your God-given good looks and find a girl. Our company is cursed with single men. It’s about time we broke the cycle.”
Dou Zerui felt speechless and decided to stop talking.
Subsequently, their seafood was served while they were just talking. Once the food was served, they started bantering as they ate and drank wine.
Halfway through dinner, Dou Zerui went to the bathroom since he had a drink too many.
