Kai Huang's annual cocktail party was usually held in May or June. Aside from the company's employees and artists, some celebrities and investors in the circle would also receive invitations. To put it bluntly, the purpose of this cocktail party was to create an opportunity for people to hug golden things.

(TN: golden things - associating with people that have a lot of money so you could possibly leech opportunities)

Since Li Yan, an ordinary civilian, had never participated in such an upper class social event, it didn't come as a surprise when she rummaged through her closet and discovered that she didn't have any suitable dresses to wear to this occasion.

Glancing at the pile of clothes that had been thrown into a hideous mess, Li Yan finally gave up her struggle and sat down on the bed.

It looked like she could only buy a dress tomorrow.

The thought of having to spend money was painful. Although she had just been paid, her $5,000 salary would have to go through income tax and insurance deductions. As for the rest... There might not be enough to buy such high-end clothes.

Why did she have to spend all of her money when she had just gotten paid? T^T

# very tired, I feel like I'll never love again #

Fortunately, Tang Qiang had shortened her trial period to only a month. Starting next month, she would receive the salary of a formal employee.

Tang Qiang stated that it was because Mo Zhen had praised her work performance - although he did not know how an assistant who couldn't drive could be praised highly, he still raised her monthly salary to $8,000.

There was simply no free time for her to go out and spend money as her daily schedule was full from following Mo Zhen around. Even more, her housing and eating expenses were covered by living in Mo Zhen's house.

Her salary has not moved since being wired to her bank card. At this rate, she'll soon become a little rich woman!

After thinking in this perspective, Li Yan's heart finally felt comfortable.

Due to the reception in the evening, the scheduled scenes were shot in advance so that the crew could finish work early. Li Yan glanced at the time. She had only slept for three hours. This non-stop work was taking its toll on her lifespan.

Li Yan yawned as she walked downstairs. Mo Zhen was already sitting in the living room for breakfast.

He seemed to be accustomed to the lifestyle of sleeping two to three hours. Although there was a hint of tiredness in his expression, he looked refreshed compared to Li Yan.

"Morning, Zhen Zhen," Li Yan picked up the milk on the table and poured until it reached the half-mark on her cup, "Can I take a half-day off today?"

Mo Zhen looked up at her and took a bite of the freshly baked bread, "Do you have something to do?"

"I want to buy clothes for the evening reception." Li Yan sat down on the chair, struggling to keep her eyes open.

Mo Zhen's movements suddenly paused and glanced at the person who was dying beside him, "No need, I'll go with you after work today."

"Oh." Li Yan grabbed a piece of bread in her hands. Her body slipped in the direction of the bottom of the chair. Her words sounded like she was sleep talking in a dream.

Mo Zhen laughed, he walked up to her and tousled her soft black hair, "Go upstairs and sleep if you're feeling this tired. I'll call you in the afternoon once I finish work."

"No need, I'm not sleepy!" Forcing herself to open her eyes, Li Yan sat up straight and bit the piece of bread that was about to fall. "I'll be fine once I finish eating!"
