"Well, thank you then." Lin Feng understood that last night's experience had earned him recognition as a newcomer, so he decided not to be overly polite. It was just a breakfast, after all, and he accepted it without hesitation.
Initially, Lin Feng didn't think much of it. His appetite was much larger than average; he could easily handle not just these two breakfasts but even three more if needed. He knew he could finish them all.
However, at that moment, Liu Yan ran over and asked Lin Feng, "Lin Feng, can you eat both of these breakfasts by yourself?"
"Hehe... I have a big appetite, it's fine," Lin Feng thought Liu Yan was just being considerate, worried that he might feel uncomfortable from overeating. He chuckled and replied.
"What I mean is, I haven't had breakfast yet," Liu Yan said directly when she saw that Lin Feng was too dense to understand her hint.
Even Lin Feng, no matter how oblivious he was, understood what Liu Yan meant. Indeed, under normal circumstances, one person only needed one breakfast; eating more would be too much. But Lin Feng's appetite was astonishing. At that moment, he didn't pay attention to this aspect and answered Liu Yan based on his own thinking, making her seem like she was begging for breakfast.
Through this brief interaction, Lin Feng realized that Liu Yan was a girl who had just stepped out of her sheltered life. She was cautious and guarded in the new environment, which made her seem quiet and not very talkative.
However, Lin Feng believed that Liu Yan must be a lively girl at school, not overly bold but at least cheerful. After his performance last night and their recent interactions, along with the fact that they were the closest in age within their group, she seemed to be warming up to him.
She was even asking him for breakfast; how could they not be familiar?
"Hehe... here you go, one for each of us." Liu Yan wasn't bad-looking either. Compared to Chen Li, they each had their own charm—one exuded mature beauty while the other radiated pure beauty. Naturally, Lin Feng wouldn't refuse such a request from a pretty girl. If she asked him for breakfast, it meant she thought highly of him. So he smiled and handed her one of the breakfasts.
"Hmph... at least you know what's good," Lin Feng underestimated the change in Liu Yan's personality. Before long, she was already able to speak to him like this.
However, Lin Feng also understood that Liu Yan's ability to talk to him this way came from her complete trust in him; she considered him a friend.
"By the way, Liu Yan, how come you and Lin Feng got to the office so early? Did you come together?" Before Lin Feng could continue speaking to Liu Yan, Chen Li had already noticed something unusual and asked.
"Yeah, I ran into Lin Feng on the bus. I didn't expect he was heading in the same direction as me. Sister Li, you wouldn't believe it, but Lin Feng was being a hero again in the taxi. Look at this!" Upon hearing Chen Li mention it, Liu Yan excitedly spoke to Chen Li. After that, she took out two coins from her wallet that the driver had given them, looking a bit proud, as if she were the one who had acted heroically on the bus.
"Isn't that just two coins?" Zhao Gang and his wife Liu Hong overheard Liu Yan and came over. At that moment, Liu Hong looked at the ordinary two coins in Liu Yan's hand and asked.
"Hehe... Hong Jie, you don't know. These two coins were given to us by the driver after we paid when we got off," Liu Yan continued excitedly, unknowingly building suspense among everyone.
Of course, among those present, Lin Feng was the only one who wouldn't be intrigued by Liu Yan's teasing.
"Oh, did you overpay?" Zhao Gang sensed that things weren't that simple; otherwise, Liu Yan wouldn't have brought it up so seriously. However, he was also annoyed by Liu Yan's teasing and asked with a smile.
Since you're not going to say it, don't blame me for not asking you in the way you want. It was clear that Zhao Gang was a bit mischievous too.
"No, it was Lin Feng who acted bravely on the bus and exposed two pickpockets, then sent them to the hospital. The people on the bus were touched by Lin Feng's character, and even the driver was moved and didn't charge us for the ride. So tell me, aren't these two coins quite meaningful?" After Zhao Gang's prompting, Liu Yan lost her desire to tease and explained directly.
After saying that, her earlier disappointment from not being able to build suspense vanished, replaced by excitement that made one think she was the one who bravely stood up to expose the pickpockets on the bus.
"Oh, that is indeed meaningful. But why do I feel like Lin Feng, this heroic person, isn't as excited as you are? Little Yan," Chen Li said as she understood the whole story and admired Lin Feng for his bravery on the bus while playfully teasing Liu Yan.
"Hehe... This guy has always been low-key. Enough about him; let's get back to work." Liu Yan suddenly felt embarrassed and realized her behavior had a bit of an "emperor is anxious while the eunuch is not" vibe. She quickly turned around while talking and went back to her seat with the breakfast Lin Feng had given her.
There was a partition at her seat that could at least temporarily shield her from view.
"Hehe... Alright, everyone get back to work." Seeing Liu Yan's actions made Chen Li find her quite adorable. She clapped her hands and said before heading into her office.
She paused for a moment, then stopped her steps toward the office, turned around, and said to Lin Feng and Liu Yan, "Lin Feng, Liu Yan, eat your breakfast first. Remember, you can't come to work on an empty stomach."
This team leader and big sister truly cared about Lin Feng and Liu Yan, two young people who had just graduated from university.
"Okay, got it," Lin Feng and Liu Yan replied in unison, then began to eat their breakfast.
In the morning, under Zhao Gang's guidance, Lin Feng quickly familiarized himself with the work. He had a good memory and strong abilities, so he got the hang of it quickly. By the end of the morning, he was basically able to complete some tasks independently.
Chen Li was not responsible for design in this workgroup; her role involved negotiating with external clients. Of course, Zhao Gang and his wife also assisted her, attending client meetings when necessary.
Liu Yan was solely responsible for advertising design. She had her own ideas about advertising design during her university days, which helped her stand out among many applicants and secure a position at Colorful Advertising Company.
Therefore, aside from design work, she was not responsible for anything else. It would likely be difficult for her to take on additional responsibilities.
Lin Feng guessed that Liu Yan applied for this position considering her personality. After all, she was quite talkative and comfortable around familiar people but became somewhat flustered when facing strangers.
As for Lin Feng, he played a more versatile role. To put it bluntly, he was more of a jack-of-all-trades. Chen Li might call on him to help with client negotiations, while Liu Yan would discuss her ideas with him, and he would also offer his own opinions.
In fact, Lin Feng wasn't particularly fond of advertising. He felt that advertisements were often deceptive and believed that this was a common sentiment among the public. In later years, people would directly associate products heavily advertised as being of lower quality since only inferior goods needed advertising.
Of course, this view might be extreme, but it reflected a widespread belief that had some validity.
However, despite his lack of enthusiasm for advertising, Lin Feng was quite familiar with it. The reason was simple: almost everyone who had encountered television knew what advertisements were. Those few minutes of airtime played repeatedly throughout the day made it hard not to remember them.
Thus, when Lin Feng discussed so-called advertising ideas with Liu Yan, he inevitably infused her with concepts he had seen in later years. This impressed Liu Yan greatly; she applauded many of Lin Feng's ideas as brilliant.
"No, Lin Feng, you can't help Sister Li. Zhao Ge and the others are already assisting her. With your ideas, you should come help me instead. I'll talk to Sister Li; we can't let someone like you go to waste," Liu Yan finally couldn't hold back and said to Lin Feng.
"Come on... please don't be like that, Auntie. I don't have anything else to do right now. Helping Sister Li get familiar with the company's business is fine; it won't interfere with our discussions about these ideas," Lin Feng quickly pulled Liu Yan back when he saw her being so impulsive.
"Well, that's okay then," Liu Yan replied somewhat sullenly. Although Lin Feng didn't know exactly what was bothering her, he had a feeling it was related to him.
"Alright, it's about time. Let's go eat," Lin Feng said, eager to change the subject.
"Okay, let's go. We should call Zhao Ge and the others," Liu Yan nodded and said to Lin Feng.
"Zhao Ge, it's time for dinner. Want to join us?" Liu Yan called out to Zhao Gang as she walked ahead.
"Sure, I'll tidy up a bit and be ready soon," Zhao Gang replied while organizing some client information. He had a habit of tidying up if he had to leave in the middle of work, placing heavier items on his desk before stepping away.
It was precisely his cautious nature that kept his work error rate extremely low.
"By the way, where's Sister Li?" Lin Feng asked after glancing into Chen Li's office and noticing she wasn't there.
Although Chen Li usually kept her office door closed, she never drew the curtains. This allowed her to maintain closeness with her subordinates, which was one of Chen Li's habits.
