Gu Xiaobei's depressed mood had improved by the time she got home. She washed a large peach she had bought in the morning and lay on the sofa nibbling at it, slurring, "Let's go for a barbecue this Sunday."
Lu Zhanguo nodded in agreement, chuckling at how quickly her mood had changed.
Come Monday, Xiaobei arrived at work to find that Li Hao had already left with a truckload of goods, but Jin Cheng, for once, was right on time for work.
Ling Yun arrived a bit late, looking a bit under the weather. Xiaobei asked with concern, "Is everything okay, Sister Ling?"
"I'm fine, I just got a bit overheated when I went out yesterday," Ling Yun said, shaking her head.
"You should drink more water and take a rest on your desk," Xiaobei suggested. She got up to fetch a glass of water for Ling Yun. As she handed over the glass, her eyes landed on a few English words on the document bag Ling Yun had brought along.
