"What do you mean by this?" The latter’s expression stiffened, and then he asked coldly.
Shen Weiyi, however, did not explain to the other party. She picked up her cell phone, checked the company address on the document, and booked the fastest plane ticket, saying, "The ticket is already bought. Don’t worry, I’ll try my best to finish my work."
"It had better be that way," the latter huffed, then left.
That evening, Sheng Ting returned to the apartment and found Shen Weiyi packing her luggage.
Just as Shen Weiyi was finishing up her packing, she closed her suitcase, looked up, and said, "I need to take a trip for work. It might take two or three days before I return."
Upon hearing this, Sheng Ting couldn’t help but frown slightly. "You’ve just started your internship. Why do you have to go on a business trip?" New interns often don’t have the experience, so the company usually does not arrange for interns to go on trips.
Not to mention an intern who hadn’t even been at the company for a month.
Thinking about the attitude of her colleagues the day before, she could guess a bit, "Is someone deliberately making things difficult for you? Do Uncle Shen and Secretary Jiang know about your trip?"
"I haven’t told them yet," Shen Weiyi shook her head. Her father would certainly not agree to her going on a trip alone, so she planned to inform Secretary Jiang once she had arrived.
Knowing what the other person was worried about, she added, "It’s okay. I actually want to take this opportunity to train myself."
If she wanted to take over the company smoothly, she had to convince everyone of her abilities. If she couldn’t handle such a small matter without Shen Juanzhi’s help, how would she manage the enormous Shen family business in the future.
"When are you leaving?" Sheng Ting asked.
"Then remember to be careful out there," Sheng Ting said, knowing she was determined and thus not trying to persuade her further.
Shen Weiyi nodded, "Don’t worry, I’ll take care of myself."
"What time is your flight? I’ll take you to the airport," Sheng Ting offered.
Shen Weiyi: "At nine in the morning. If you don’t have time, I can take a taxi myself!"
Sheng Ting: "I have time."
The next morning, Shen Weiyi got up early, and Sheng Ting had already made breakfast.
She greeted her with a smile, "Awake? Eat your breakfast first!"
"Thank you!" Shen Weiyi walked over and sat down in front of the chair Sheng Ting had pulled out for her.
While passing her the breakfast, Sheng Ting reminded her, "You’re going to be on a plane soon, so don’t eat too much or you might feel sick."
"I know!" Shen Weiyi nodded and took the milk and sandwich handed to her.
Since Shen Weiyi moved into the apartment, Sheng Ting had taken over the cooking duties.
No matter what time Shen Weiyi got up, Sheng Ting always reserved breakfast for her on the table.
Both were quite busy during the day, so lunch was usually settled at school. As for dinner, sometimes they ate out, but if the lab was not too busy, Sheng Ting would go home and cook.
Of course, all Shen Weiyi did was eat.
She didn’t stay in the apartment every day; she only lived there from Monday to Friday and would go home to accompany Shen Juan on the weekends.
After her internship began, it was the same.
Because of this, although Shen Juan had his opinions, his daughter was grown up, and he couldn’t demand too forcefully that she move back home to live.
Instead, he could only remind her indirectly, emphasizing that she should protect herself.
This often left Shen Weiyi both amused and exasperated.
The two had lived together for more than a year, genuinely just as roommates, each with their own room. Sometimes even Shen Weiyi couldn’t help but wonder if perhaps her own charm wasn’t sufficient.
