Su Jinhui’s office was on the 18th floor as well, so he accompanied Zhuang Nainai all the way back to her seat.

The people around her all looked up and peered over excitedly as if they’d discovered new land.

“Thank you, senior!” Zhuang Nainai smiled. It was about time she repaid him the money, but she thought of her empty wallet and scratched her head. “I will bring the money to you later.”

“No rush.” Su Jinhui surveyed her work environment, patted her shoulder, and continued, “If you need help with anything here, let me know.”

He was… clearly trying to protect her!

Zhuang Nainai was not one to reject another’s favor and smiled. “Sure!”

Su Jinhui’s phone rang at that moment.

He pointed helplessly at his phone and Zhuang Nainai waved. “Bye!”

Only then did Su Jinhui take his leave.

He was not gone for long before the gossipy females in the department gathered at her desk.

“Hey, Zhuang Nainai, how do you know Leader Su?”

“Zhuang Nainai, is Leader Su trying to woo you?”

“Don’t talk nonsense, I only just met him when I was buying lunch just now,” Zhuang Nainai explained.

“He must have fallen for you at first sight, or why would he help you bring up all these lunchboxes?” the big-mouthed and friendly Su Mei offered.

Su Mei was the youngest in the crowd and was seated right next to Zhuang Nainai. The two girls had gotten to know each other well over the past two days. Zhuang Nainai rolled her eyes and patted her on the shoulder. “Eat your lunch, nothing can shut you up.”

Su Mei stuck out her tongue and went back to her food.

Having distributed all the lunchboxes, Zhuang Nainai brought the last lunchbox to Zhang Chaowen’s office. She knocked and entered.

Zhang Chaowen was looking at some documents on his computer. His face darkened when he looked up to see Zhuang Nainai.

Zhuang Nainai ignored his bad temper and put the lunchbox down. She then handed over the receipt from the cafe and said, “Leader Zhang, this is the receipt for lunch, please sign it so I could bring it to the finance department for the expense claim.”

Zhang Chaowen narrowed his eyes and kept quiet with his gaze on the computer.

Zhuang Nainai panicked at his reaction.

Damn it!

Would he not approve her expense claim?

She should not get petty with him over a thousand dollars, but… she had no money now!

She hated owing others money. She had to quickly repay Su Jinhui the amount.

Therefore, Zhuang Nainai pushed the receipt forward again. “Leader Zhang, please sign this for me.”

Zhang Chaowen finally looked her in the eye. “What’s this?”

Was he trying to feign ignorance?

Zhuang Nainai calmed the anger rising within her. “Lunch for the department had cost $1100.”

Zhang Chaowen looked surprised. “Aren’t you treating? Zhuang Nainai, there’s a tradition that new joiners have to treat the department. Did you not know that?”

Zhuang Nainai was lost for words.

She was a glib talker usually, but she did not know what to say at the moment, for what Zhang Chaowen mentioned was indeed an unspoken rule in the working world.

However…

How could he force it on her like that?

Zhuang Nainai bit her lips and replied, “Leader Zhang, I should indeed treat everyone to a meal, but I don’t think lunchboxes are appropriate. I will definitely buy lunch again when I get my pay.”

Zhang Chaowen raised his brows. “You can do that for next time. That’s all.”
