Chapter 849: Zhuang Zhou Dreaming of a Butterfly (4)

“This idiot, sold me out…”

“This is too much. Brothers, he scolded me. Help me…”

Instantly, a series of crackling sounds rang out.

A moment later.

“Zhao Yu, quickly come and play with us…”

I can’t do without you. Just meeting some idiots…”

“Four missing one, come quickly…”

Hearing his colleagues ‘invitations, Zhao Yu hesitated for a moment before opening the game.

It was another day of hard work.

“Beep beep beep —1”

Someone’s alarm clock rang, and the few people who were playing hurriedly stopped.

“It’s almost time. We can close it after this round. Old Yu will be here in a while…”

After the game ended, Zhao Yu opened the photoshop app again and the door was pushed open.

The supervisor, Old Yu, walked in.

“Meeting!”

“That’s all for today. On New Year’s Day, our company is organizing a team-building event at Love Island. No excuses for leave or tardiness…” After saying this, Old Yu was about to leave when Zhao Yu suddenly stood up. “Supervisor, can I stay back?!’¹

Old Yu immediately paused and turned his head to look at Zhao Yu meaningfully.

Then he continued, “Everyone else, you’re dismissed. Zhao Yu, come with me to the office…”

Zhao Yu was a bit confused but had no choice but to follow.

He hadn’t been to Old Yu’s office much and only knew that Old Yu usually wasn’t at the company, only coming in around the end of the day.

In the hall, colleagues from other departments had already left, leaving only two rotating shifts of cleaning staff.

Entering Old Yu’s office, Zhao Yu casually closed the door.

Old Yu sat in the boss’s chair, scrutinizing Zhao Yu from top to bottom, his eyes revealing a hint of assessment. After a while, he asked, “Can you explain about your reason for not going?!”

Zhao Yu felt a bit bewildered. The usually easygoing Supervisor Yu seemed quite serious today, especially with those eyes that appeared to see through everything, exerting a strong sense of pressure.

“Uh…”

Initially, Zhao Yu wanted to say he didn’t really want to go. Since waking up hungover yesterday, he had felt muddled and wanted to spend New Year’s quietly alone.

But now, with Old Yu’s questioning, Zhao Yu felt a bit guilty. After all, he had been slacking off and playing games with colleagues during work hours.

“Well… my girlfriend broke up with me. I’m not in a good mood…”

“Oh, I see. Hey, that’s nothing significant. Women are just fleeting concerns. As someone who’s been there, let me tell you, there will be plenty of encounters on Love Island…”

For some reason, Zhao Yu felt like Old Yu was somewhat relieved, his tone becoming much friendlier.

“Xiao Zhao, let me tell you, the native women on Love Island are plentiful.

They all want to marry into our Great Xia…”

“Once you get there, I’ll teach you. You don’t need to take responsibility. Enjoy yourself with the women…”

Zhao Yu was stunned and hesitantly said, “Isn’t that not right…” “What’s wrong with that? You don’t know, the women there are very open. Some don’t necessarily want to marry; they just want to experience foreign men…”

Old Yu chuckled, “I’ve been there several times. Tsk tsk, the women there can drain you dry, but make sure you take safety precautions…”

Talking about this, Zhao Yu relaxed a lot. Thinking his ID card had already been taken by the company to process the visa.

His confusion and melancholy seemed like post-breakup symptoms. Maybe having some fun would help.

“Alright then, I’ll join the team-building…”

“That’s the spirit!”

Old Yu smiled and waved Zhao Yu off.

The next two days, as the departure approached, many people were excited, looking up guides and imagining how to enjoy and take photos on Love Island. Time quickly passed, and on New Year’s Day morning, the company employees gathered downstairs, and the tour bus was ready and waiting.

“Counting the number of people…”

Old Yu and several other department heads stood at the bus door and counted one by one.

Thirteen, everyone from my department is here…”

“Sixteen, everyone from my department is here…”

Eleven, my department is one person short…”

Old Yu frowned and was wondering who was absent when Zhao Yu hurried over from afar.

“Coming, coming…”

“Little Zhao, hurry up. Don’t be late at a time like this…” Old Yu immediately beamed with joy and let Zhao Yu get into the car with a smile.

Soon, everyone was present and the bus started moving.

“Later, I finally learned…”

“How to love…”

No one knew who started it, but soon the people on the bus began to sing loudly.

Old Yu, sitting in the passenger seat, stood up and smiled at everyone, a certain indescribable joy in his eyes.

Zhao Yu noticed this but felt a bit uneasy.

“Zhao Yu, we’re going out to have fun. Why so serious? Smile a bit…”

A female colleague beside him patted Zhao Yu on the shoulder.

Zhao Yu smiled and then joined in with the singing crowd.

The people on the bus continued to play and joke around for quite a while until they finally arrived at the airport.

“Why are we going to Canaan?!”

At the airport, everyone looked at their tickets, feeling a bit confused.

Old Yu stepped forward to explain, “The visa for Love Island takes time and can’t be done in time for New Year’s. So, we have to transfer through Canaan. Don’t worry, it won’t cause any delays…”

No one thought much of it since they were already there. They queued up, checked in, and boarded the plane.

“Canaan…”

A trace of worry flashed through Zhao Yu’s mind. He seemed to recall seeing some negative news about Canaan in the media.

But with so many colleagues from the company going, he figured it should be fine..
