"Brother Chuan, treat us to a meal."
Just as Zhou Chuan and Si Yuan returned to the office, everyone started to tease them.
Zhou Chuan was also a bit baffled. What's going on? I just stepped out for a smoke; why am I suddenly being asked to treat again?
"Why should I treat you guys for no reason?"
"Isn't it because Si Yuan is going to resign? Don't you need to organize a farewell party?" Wang Chao teased.
"Yeah, let's all chip in for a meal to see off Si Yuan," Li Kang said.
"The barbecue place we went to last time was pretty good; let's go there again," Tian Yunrui suggested.
"I think you just want to eat grilled kidneys again," Zhang Kaixuan remarked.
"Brother Chuan, can you take on some of Si Yuan's workload, so not all of it falls on me?" Chen Hao said.
...
For a while, everyone was chattering away, with even the ladies Lin Manzhi and Li Wenjuan joining in the commotion.
Si Yuan simply looked at them with a smile, not offering any explanation.
