The morning began like a normal day, but things were never truly "normal" anymore.
Lin Xiaoyu walked into the office feeling like she was floating.
Li Wenxun walked in right behind her, pretending to be professional but failing miserably because he kept glancing at her like she was the sun.
Mei Lin noticed instantly.
"Oho… what is this atmosphere?" Mei Lin whispered dramatically.
"You two look like you shared the same air this morning."
Xiaoyu nearly choked on her coffee.
Wenxun coughed, turning away with a straight face that fooled no one.
Meanwhile, at the back of the room, Zhang Rui, the calm, quiet, slightly grumpy IT manager, watched Mei Lin with an expression dangerously close to… softness.
The office wasn't aware yet, but Zhang Rui had a massive crush on Mei Lin.
The problem?
She was loud, chaotic, dramatic, sparkly…
And he was the human version of a silent library.
But he liked her anyway.

Team Project → Chaos Begins
That week, the company started a new cross-department project.
Their team?
Xiaoyu
Wenxun
Mei Lin
Zhang Rui
The moment the four sat together in a meeting room, destiny sighed heavily.
Mei Lin leaned forward.
"Okay team! Let's brainstorm!"
Zhang Rui flinched.
"Can you… lower your voice by… 40 percent?"
Mei Lin gasped.
"You're so rude!"
"You're so loud."
"WHAT?!"
"Case in point."
Xiaoyu face-palmed.
Wenxun held back a laugh.
Xiaoyu whispered to Wenxun,
"They're like fire and ice."
Wenxun murmured back,
"More like fire and someone trying to escape the building."

The Sweetness Between Xiaoyu & Wenxun
During the meeting, Xiaoyu was writing notes when Wenxun leaned toward her.
"I like this side of you," he whispered.
"Focused. Serious. Beautiful."
She immediately forgot how to breathe.
Mei Lin noticed and pointed an accusing finger.
"YOU TWO ARE FLIRTING DURING WORK HOURS!"
Xiaoyu: dies internally
Wenxun: emotionally unbothered, secretly enjoying this
He replied calmly,
"We're discussing project details."
Mei Lin narrowed her eyes.
"Oh really? Was the project about calling Xiaoyu 'beautiful'?"
Xiaoyu turned into a tomato.
Wenxun simply sipped his coffee.

Zhang Rui's Unexpected Bravery
Later that afternoon, Mei Lin accidentally tripped while turning too fast.
Before she could fall, Zhang Rui — with reflexes the world didn't know he had — caught her by the waist.
She blinked up at him.
He blinked down at her.
Time froze.
Xiaoyu watched from a distance, eyes wide.
Wenxun smirked.
Mei Lin whispered,
"Wow… you have… muscles?"
Zhang Rui's ears turned red.
"I—everyone has muscles. It's basic biology."
She stared at him like he was some sort of hero.
Something changed in that moment.
For the first time, Mei Lin saw him as more than the quiet IT guy.

A Growing Web of Emotions
Weeks passed.
Xiaoyu and Wenxun grew closer — quiet conversations, shared coffees, soft glances.
Mei Lin and Zhang Rui grew… chaotic.
They bickered every hour.
"Why do you walk so slowly?!"
"Why do you talk so much?!"
"Why are you always judging me?!"
"Why are you so dramatic?!"
But underneath the arguments…
something warm was forming.
Sometimes, they shared snacks.
Sometimes, they shared eye contact without fighting.
Sometimes, they helped each other without admitting it.
Even Wenxun noticed.
"Your friends are falling in love," he 9whispered to Xiaoyu one day.
She gasped.
"Really?!"
He smiled softly.
"They look exactly like we did before we confessed."
Xiaoyu turned red instantly.

Career Growth — Together
The project the four worked on became a huge success.
Xiaoyu's creative ideas impressed the entire company.
Wenxun's leadership shined throughout.
Mei Lin's marketing skills brought life to the project.
Zhang Rui's technical expertise saved them from multiple disasters.
Together, they became known as:
"The Power Four."
They were unstoppable.
They laughed together.
Fought together.
Drank coffee at midnight together.
And slowly…
Two couples emerged naturally.

Two Proposals — One Beautiful Ending
. Wenxun → Xiaoyu
Wenxun proposed at the place where everything started — the office rooftop.
He said warmly:
"Xiaoyu… my days begin with you.
My happiness… is you.
Will you marry me?"
Xiaoyu cried and nodded until her vision blurred.
"Yes… yes… a thousand times yes."
He slipped the ring onto her trembling hand.
---
. Zhang Rui → Mei Lin
Zhang Rui proposed in the nerdiest, sweetest way.
He built a small program on the office computer.
When Mei Lin sat down, the screen lit up:
"ERROR: Your boyfriend wants to ask you something important."
She laughed.
Then another window popped up:
"Would you like to marry Zhang Rui?"
[YES] [ALSO YES]
Mei Lin burst into tears.
She turned to see him kneeling behind her with a ring.
"Marry me," he said quietly.
"Please."
She tackled him to the floor, hugging him.
"Yes!! Idiot!!"
---
— Double Wedding
Both couples got married on the same day.
Xiaoyu walked down the aisle, Wenxun waiting with soft eyes that held entire worlds.
Mei Lin walked down the aisle next, Zhang Rui crying even though he denied it.
There was laughter, chaos, dancing, and love.
And at the end of the night…
The four of them stood together, holding hands, smiling at the future they built —
a future full of love, coffee, arguments, promotions, dreams, and unbreakable bonds.
THE CHOAS IS END
(LOVE , COFFEE & CORPORATE CHAOS )
