You are welcome to come often

Evening.

Bei Wei returned to the apartment carrying her brand-new bag. Although she could still feel a tearing pain, her heart was filled with sweetness.

"Hiss." As she entered the elevator, she accidentally twisted her ankle and quickly steadied herself against the wall.

Thinking of how Zhang Yang had asked her earlier if it would affect anything, a blush crept onto her face.

Brother Zhang is really... truly tireless.

Back at the apartment, Gu Jiani happened to be there.

"Oh? Bei Wei, you're back?" She walked over with a guilty smile, then her sharp eyes noticed something. "What's wrong? Did you twist your ankle? Is it serious?"

"It's nothing, nothing." Bei Wei limped over and sat on the sofa.

Gu Jiani took a closer look, and in an instant, it all clicked.

"You, you, you... you gave it to him?" she stammered.

"That's right, I gave it to Brother Zhang," Bei Wei admitted openly.

Gu Jiani's expression shifted rapidly, but she couldn't utter a single word. Recalling the snide remarks she used to make, she felt incredibly ridiculous.

"A Capucines bag, 150,000. Zhang Yang is really generous with you." Gu Jiani looked at Bei Wei's bag with a hint of envy.

"By the way, where did you two stay last night?"

At the mention of this, Bei Wei couldn't suppress the urge to share. "Jiani, let me tell you."

She showed her the view from the top floor of the Bulgari Hotel, the magnificent skyline of the Magic City, and the luxury and dreamlike quality of the 500-square-meter super suite.

Even for Gu Jiani, who came from a well-off family, these sights were breathtaking and left her speechless.

"You really hit the jackpot," Gu Jiani said, feeling bitter.

What else was there to say?

Driving a Bentley Continental GT worth over five million, casually dropping over a hundred thousand on a bag, and staying in the Bulgari Cloud Top Suite—the pinnacle of hotels at over a hundred thousand a night.

With such financial power, that so-called university campus heartthrob couldn't compare even in eight lifetimes!

At this moment, she felt a twinge of regret for her hasty decision back then.

"Um... Jiani," Bei Wei said, feeling a bit embarrassed. "Zhang Yang wants me to move out. I'm really sorry..."

"Don't!" Gu Jiani suddenly grew anxious.

Having been roommates for so long and university classmates, she was practically one of the few good friends she had in the Magic City.

If Bei Wei moved out, she would be so bored and lonely on her own.

"At worst, I'll apologize to Zhang Yang and ask for his forgiveness. If you move out, what am I supposed to do?" Gu Jiani grabbed Bei Wei's arm and shook it vigorously.

"He's broad-minded; why would he hold a grudge against a little woman like me?"

"It's better not to. Zhang Yang won't be happy," Bei Wei shook her head.

"He can come over whenever he wants in the future. I'll never speak out of turn again. How about you invite him over, and I'll apologize to him in person?" Gu Jiani shook Bei Wei's arm again. "Can you? Please?"

Coquetry only worked when Bei Wei did it; Gu Jiani's persona was that of a spicy woman, so her attempt at acting cute was just plain awkward.

"Alright, alright, Jiani, stop shaking me, it hurts." Bei Wei felt like her arm was about to fall off.

"Where does it hurt?" Gu Jiani leaned in close. "Come on, tell your good sister, how is he... like? How did it feel?"

"I'm not telling." Bei Wei pulled her arm away and slipped into her room.

Late at night, Zhang Yang was chatting with Bei Wei before bed.

"What? Gu Jiani is inviting me to your apartment? What is she up to?" Zhang Yang asked, puzzled.

"Brother Zhang, she just knows she was wrong and wants to apologize to you in person. She also said... next time... next time you're welcome to come over often," Bei Wei said. "Brother Zhang, what do you think..."

"She knows she's wrong?" Zhang Yang just took that with a grain of salt. "Fine, I'll go then."

Gu Jiani was such a proud woman; did she really know she was wrong? He didn't believe it for a second. He was just curious to see how she would go about apologizing.

So, he and Bei Wei agreed on a time to go over the next evening.

And while he was at it, he might as well not come back.

If Gu Jiani had no objections to him staying the night, that would truly prove her sincerity.

The next morning, as soon as Zhang Yang sat down at his desk, he saw Bei Wei walking over with small steps.

From a distance, Bei Wei shot him a look that only the two of them understood.

It was just a fleeting glance, but it was caught by Xiang Youde. To be precise, he only saw the way Zhang Yang was looking back.

"Still staring? It's Friday, we've got a lot to do!" Xiang Youde muttered, glancing in the direction of Zhang Yang's gaze. "Look at Bei Wei, is she even looking at you? Always so full of yourself."

At that moment, Bei Wei had indeed lowered her head.

Zhang Yang opened his phone and tapped away, casually ordering afternoon tea for Bei Wei from a nearby trendy dessert shop. This shop had recently become a hit in Shanghai and was very popular; many influencers had checked in there. The only downside was the high price.

Feeding Bei Wei from time to time and covering her coffee and afternoon tea was one of his little joys at the company.

It was Friday afternoon, and with the weekend approaching, the overall atmosphere in the office was relaxed and lively.

Many female colleagues had ordered milk tea, while others had it delivered remotely by their boyfriends. Every corner of the company had become an ocean of joy, filled with the scent of sweetness.

Before three o'clock, Bei Wei received a call, and her eyes immediately turned toward Zhang Yang with pleasant surprise.

"Okay, I'm coming out now."

She stood up and stepped out for a moment. Not long after, she walked back in carrying various afternoon tea treats.

Zhang Yang hadn't looked closely when he ordered; there were macarons, red velvet gift boxes, and plenty of milk tea, totaling several hundred yuan.

How much could food possibly cost?

"Chunmai's red velvet gift box?"

"Bei Wei, your boyfriend is so sweet! He was actually willing to order this for you."

The exquisite packaging caught everyone's eyes, and the surrounding female colleagues were immediately filled with envy. They all knew privately that Bei Wei seemed to have a wealthy boyfriend who drove a Porsche.

Look, even though he hadn't shown his face, his presence was everywhere.

Several guys who had been bold enough to pursue Bei Wei earlier lowered their heads, feeling a bit ashamed. It took this kind of spending to win her over; if they had known, they would have had a bit more self-awareness.

"Let's all eat together." Bei Wei smiled, her heart feeling sweet as she invited everyone to share.

Zhang Yang was working when he glanced at the bottom right corner of his screen.

Xiang Youde, who was committed to dissuading him, had sent another message.

"This old Xiang." Zhang Yang was a bit speechless, but he clicked on the chat box and scanned it.

Xiang Youde: Look, how can you compare yourself to her boyfriend? He spends several hundred to a thousand on a single afternoon tea—do you realize what that means? Don't waste your energy. I really don't want to watch you fall into this, old Zhang.

Zhang Yang: Why should I give up? It's just an afternoon tea.

Xiang Youde: Stubborn and unrepentant.
