Li Ye Invited Me

At ten in the morning, Supply Department of the Light Vehicle Company.

Ding Zhiwen checked the time, unhurriedly drained the tea from his cup, then tipped the tea leaves at the bottom into the trash.

The female colleague sitting behind him, Xiao Yue, immediately giggled. "Hey, Uncle Old Ding, didn't you say the first steep was water, the second steep was tea, and the third was the essence? Why did you stop at the second steep today? What, the tea not to your taste?"

Old Ding chuckled. "I'm going to a wedding feast at noon. If I fill my belly with tea now, will I still be able to eat when I see all those delicacies from land and sea?"

"A wedding feast? Where are you going for a wedding feast?"

Yue Lingshan put on an exaggerated look of surprise, then suddenly understood. "Uncle Old Ding, you're going to Little Li's wedding, aren't you?"

"Heh, you figured that out?"

Old Ding turned to Yue Lingshan, his smile carrying a hint of amusement.

The three of you had been watching me all morning. Aren't you just waiting to see whether I'm going to Li Ye's place for the feast? Still putting on an act?

Old Ding had eaten more salt than Yue Lingshan had eaten rice. On an ordinary morning, Yue Lingshan could wander into other departments eight times, yet after coming to work today, her butt had not moved from her seat. She kept glancing at Old Ding too. Wasn't she just waiting for a chance to provide an assist?

Sure enough, once Yue Lingshan finished speaking, Section Chief Wu, who had been intently studying the international situation, opened his mouth.

"Old Ding! You said you were going to Li Ye's place for a wedding feast. Did he invite you?"
