Once Upon A One Night Stand novel Chapter 199

The next day, Shu Tian went to the company with Li Han as usual. It was almost the end of the year. The busiest time had passed, and they finished the work they were doing. Now arrived the time of relaxation and expectation, followed by plans for the new year shift.

Most of the employees of the HY Law Office were from outside the country. Shu Tian and Zhang Rui'er were the only locals in this group, so Shu Tian volunteered to be on duty.

"I have time from the fifth day to the eighth day." The last three days were the last days that others liked to be on duty. It was tiring to go home all the way and come back again.

With Shu Tian's words, everyone let up for spending a peaceful year. They didn't need to run back and forth like before.

Everyone thanked Shu Tian one after another. After coming to the company for so long, she felt the warmth between colleagues for the first time.

In fact, it was just a matter of taking care of each other. She would try her best to do whatever she could do. Over time, everyone's opinion of her would change.

"By the way, you all know about your year-end bonus this year, right?" Colleague Liu whispered, "How much can you get?"

"Probably a lot this year. Didn't director Wei insinuate at the last meeting?"

"Yes, our company give away a really big year-end award to everyone every year. I heard from the Purchasing Department that they have bought a lot of electronic products for the annual meeting. We will have one of them."

"Really..."

Shu Tian's heart warmed up as she listened to the various discussions around her. The gossip and laughter that she used to hate the most now seemed so human. After more than half a year of getting along and contacting, from being ostracized at the beginning to now, Shu Tian had the feeling of integrating into the collective for the first time.

In the evening, her colleagues organized the last group dinner of the year. Wei Xiangming also went. Shu Tian told Li Han in advance and went to a restaurant near the company in her colleagues' car.

Wei Xiangming booked a private room in advance, and the twelve people made a circle around the table.

They each ordered a dish, and Shu Tian ordered boiled duck-blood curd and tripe in chili broth, a total of 12 dishes. After that, Wei Xiangming asked everyone for the first time, "This is the last dinner of our department this year. Do you want to drink?"

Liu was the first to agree. "Not liquor. Just beer!"

"Okay, I'll drink with you!"

One of them said that, and the rest lost their reserve. A few female colleagues who liked to drink also ordered a few bottles of specially brewed beer.

They spent a pleasant night during the meal. In the end, everyone toasted Wei Xiangming and said polite words to each other. It was Shu Tian's turn. "Director Wei, I especially thank you for trusting me and giving me great support on my work. If you weren't in company, I might not have been able to stick to the work for so long."

If Liu Wei had always been her boss, she might have given up halfway.

Wei Xiangming, who had left office, no longer had the leadership style and got along well with everyone. Hearing Shu Tian's words, she smiled like a little girl who had been rewarded. "I'm so embarrassed by your praise."

A gossipy colleague looked at Shu Tian. "Shu Tian, I really didn't expect you do well at work. To be honest, I had a lot of prejudice against you back then. I thought you were a vase. Now it seems that even if you are a vase, you are also a powerful vase!"

A few drinks had loosened everyone's tongue. Of course, Shu Tian did not mind what he said. She replied jokingly, "I accept it as praise."

"This year has come to a successful end. Next year, we will work hard together. If anyone has done anything wrong in the past, we should support one another." Wei Xiangming's words were like keys to each other, opening the locked heart.

Shu Tian was also happy and inevitably drank a few glasses, but she controlled the amount and did not drink too much.
