After the funeral, everyone told Luo Qi to mourn in peace, then they gradually left.
Luo Qi looked back and found that Ye Ranran was still there.
"Ranran." She took a step forward, taking Ye Ranran’s hand.
Ye Ranran’s hand was warmer now, no longer as cold as it was a few days ago, Luo Qi felt a small hint of warmth.
"Don’t be upset, birth, aging, sickness, and death are natural." Ye Ranran comforted her.
She knew, the words were bland, but she didn’t know what else to say.
Even if they had little effect, hearing them would make one feel a little better, right?
"Mmm, I understand." Luo Qi nodded.
"I gave you two days off, was that enough?"
"You can’t stop talking about work, Ranran, you’re not cute anymore." Luo Qi tried to say it lightly.
She had been upset for two days, she couldn’t keep being upset.
Cute? Ye Ranran looked a bit confused, that word seemed far from her.
"It’s good to stay busy, it helps avoid overthinking." Ye Ranran took a long time to say this.
She knew that Luo Qi didn’t need any wisdom now, what a woman needed at this time was a warm embrace and some comforting words.
"You’re right, I’ll get back to work tomorrow, remember to give me a raise at the end of the year." Luo Qi joked.
"Depends on your performance." Ye Ranran answered seriously.
Had it been any other day, Luo Qi would’ve pretended to hit her, but today, the mood and the place weren’t right.
"I will, Ranran, don’t worry." Luo Qi assured her.
"Mmm, moving forward is the best!" Everything will get better!
Luo Qi leaned heavily against Ye Ranran, feeling the warmth from her body, drawing strength from her!
When she felt she couldn’t go on, she would think about Ye Ranran, who was going through more hardships than she was.
If she could face it bravely, why couldn’t she?
Ye Ranran glanced at Ah Chuan standing not too far away, the distance and atmosphere between them seemed a little weird.
"Ranran, don’t ask, I will tell you when all this is over. I don’t want to see him now, can you take him away, please?" Luo Qi pleaded.
These days, she had often wondered, if her mother had been honest, or if she had broken up with Ah Chuan earlier, would she still be here?
She shouldn’t be here!
"Ranran, I’m begging you, can you help me out?" If Ah Chuan stays any longer, she will suffocate.
But no matter how much she tried to push him away, he would not leave. She really didn’t know what to do.
"Alright, I’m leaving then, take care of yourself."
Luo Qi let go of her, looking at Ye Ranran’s face, skinny with no meat left: "Ranran, you must take care of yourself, Mr. Jun will come back."
Ye Ranran curved her eyes: "I will, don’t worry!"
Why does everyone keep saying that? As if she were torturing herself.
But the truth was, she took all her meals, never missing one!
Yet everyone was saying she had lost weight. Ye Ranran thought, it must be because she was tired!
Mmm, that must be it!
"There’s an urgent matter at the company today, come with me." Ye Ranran stood in front of Ah Chuan and said in a tone that didn’t allow for refusal.
Ah Chuan hesitated, looking at Ye Ranran in confusion. How could his boss make such a request? According to his understanding of her, she would be considerate and give him a few days off!
"What? Are you unwilling? You’ve taken a three-day leave, haven’t you? As a special assistant, you’re not allowed to take more than half a day off, didn’t you know that?"
