At the entrance of the neighborhood, Wang Xinyuan didn't wait for Xiang Yang to open the car door for her. She opened the car door herself and got out, "Special Assistant Xiang, thank you for driving me back!"
Although Xiang Yang had said she could just call him by his name after work hours, she still decided it would be best to maintain a clear superior-subordinate relationship.
"OK, then you get some rest early!"
Xiang Yang didn't say much more and only started the car to leave after seeing Wang Xinyuan enter the building.
Once Wang Xinyuan heard the car leaving, she came out from the dim entryway, and watched the car's shadow grow smaller and smaller. Finally, she sighed, turned around, and went upstairs.
She changed out of her evening gown, folded it neatly, and put it back into the gift box, planning to take it to the dry cleaners tomorrow. She didn't think she would have another chance to wear that gown again.
