At the first sight, Cindy was shocked by Elsa's beautiful dress. She didn't expect Elsa to be so outstanding. She put on a smile and said unhappily, "Elsa, it must cost a lot of money to buy such a dress on the site of Taobao, huh? Can you send me a link of this online shop? My cousin keeps asking me to get her some clothes."
Elsa did not want to lower herself to the same level as her. She said indifferently, "I'm sorry. There's no such link. It was a gift from someone else."
"Is it a wedding gift?" Cindy asked. She had known said that Elsa got married with a poor man, who was a P.E. teacher of a suburban high school. A man of an unpromising job, who didn't invite any of the colleagues to their wedding, nor took advantage of this opportunity to build good relationships with their superiors. It seemed that he had spent a lot of money buying this dress for Elsa. She really wanted to see what else Elsa could change. It would be a big joke if she had to wear her white shirts and black trousers again later.
Elsa didn't reply but slowly walked towards Johnny.
"Didn't your P.E. teacher come to send you here? Oh, I forgot that it's far from here in the suburbs." Apparently, Cindy was not satisfied with Elsa's reaction. With a smile on her face, she said, "Wow, he just leaves you alone so soon? What a pity! Since you are so beautiful."
"If you have so much time to care about me, why don't you put more effort to learn the 5W theory?" As soon as Elsa finished saying that, she walked away, leaving Cindy behind.
Cindy was so angry that her face turned red.
Elsa approached Johnny and said, "I saw that you were appointed to be the chief editor now. I wonder why you want to meet me."
"Come to my office, Elsa." Johnny said seriously.
Elsa followed him in. She really hoped that he did have something of the work to talk with her. The figure of his back was so familiar as if it had been engraved in her mind. She closed her eyes and slowly opened them before she took a step forward.
"I am the new chief editor. You must be surprised, right?" Johnny said in a leisure manner, sitting on a chair.
Elsa shook her head and said, "It's normal for those competents to occupy this position."
"Elsa, the newspaper has a plan recently. I want you to join it with me." He used to lean on the back of the chair, but now he suddenly supported himself with both hands on the desk. He approached closer to Elsa, looked a little anxious.
"Okay." Elsa responded at once.
