Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

Fu Corporation building was bathed in the warm morning sunlight. The entire city had just woken up, busy with traffic on the roads.

Mu Tongrui busied herself with Ya Hua's animation draft ever since she reported to work at 9:30 a.m.

The draft to be submitted to Ya Hua was due by the end of the day. She needed to finish drawing the characters before leaving work. She had already thought of the appearance of the characters, so there would not be any problem drawing them. It was just a time-consuming process.

When she was about to end work for the day, Mu Tongrui printed out the draft and entered Xiang Nanqian's office.

“Ms. Xiang, this is the animation draft for Ya Hua. I have completed it.”

Xiang Nanqian glanced at her draft and sneered, “I thought you were really competent. Are you thinking of winning me by submitting such a draft?”

“It is not up to me to decide if I can win you or not. Neither is it up to you. We can only wait and see the final results of the competition.”

“Let me tell you this, Mu Tongrui. You have no chance of winning!”

Xiang Nanqian was unhappy with her. She also could not be bothered to argue with her. “Let's wait and see then!”

After Mu Tongrui handed in her draft, she sat at her desk and looked at the time on her phone.

She had thirty more minutes to go before work ended for the day. The thought of watching a movie with Fu Lingye made her heart jump wildly with excitement.

She was preoccupied with her date with Fu Lingye tonight, so she sent him a message to ask——

“What shall we have for dinner later?”

His reply came very quickly. “You decide.”

Mu Tongrui felt that his lukewarm response did not show much enthusiasm. “The movie begins at 18:30. Let's buy some snacks and have them in the cinema then head to a restaurant to have dinner after the movie. How does that sound?”
