~4 min read 623 words

Team Member A asked, bewildered, "If his hand is broken, how can he still manage to wear it?"

"Use a prosthetic," Liam Woody replied.

"String it up and hang it around your neck," Team Member C suggested.

"..." Team Member A suddenly realized why he was still single.

"You guys, not hungry for lunch?" James Black coldly asked, glancing at the three who were chatting like they were performing a crosstalk.

Liam Woody shook his head repeatedly and quickly stepped back.

Team Member B, who also had a girlfriend, thought he could share his Valentine’s Day feelings with his chief.

"Chief, what Valentine’s Day gift did you get for your sister-in-law?" Team Member B curiously glanced at the watch on his own chief’s wrist.

After looking closely, he lamented to himself, "Poverty really limits my imagination."

James Black did not answer, but threw the same question back at Team Member B, "What did you give your girlfriend?"

"I’ve been stuck here in the guard team for so long, what could I buy her? I just sent her two red envelopes, one 520 and one 1314. She’s easy to please, she was really happy to receive them," Team Member B laughed, "I plan to order her a bouquet online tonight and video call her to chat."

"Hmm," James Black nodded and then did not continue the personal chat with them. Instead, he spent the subsequent time arranging work and discussing official matters.

It was like having a small meeting with these three, and by the time they left his office, it was more than an hour later.

After they left, James Black stood up to stretch a bit and moved around.

When he sat back down, he suddenly remembered what his subordinate had said just now.

Just sent her two red envelopes... she’s easy to please, she was really happy to receive them.

James Black thought, Jane Sampson was also easy to please.

What others have, she must also have.

Thinking this, James Black immediately took out his mobile phone and without a second thought, sent Jane Sampson a red envelope.

It was only after sending it that James Black realized, today’s WhatsAPP red envelopes didn’t have a limit on the amount.

A 520 and a 1314 really went through.

After sending them, James Black waited two minutes and not seeing Jane Sampson claim them, he put his mobile phone aside and then looked down to continue reading documents.

For a while, he glanced at his mobile phone every minute or two, until half an hour later, when Jane Sampson claimed the red envelopes, James Black once again put down the documents to pick up his mobile phone, just waiting for Jane Sampson to reply to the messages.

A few seconds later, James Black received an emoticon thanking him for the red envelope from the boss.

James Black frowned immediately and sent a message back.

It’s husband, not boss. —— Jane Sampson’s Mr.Black.

On the other side of the mobile phone, Jane Sampson who received James Black’s message, just held her phone and stood there, then burst out laughing a few seconds later.

The rather serious James Black was truly quite an old-school figure.

And, a seriously prideful one at that.

After laughing enough, Jane Sampson then manually typed a message and sent it back to James Black.

Thank you for the red envelope, hubby! Mwah! —— James Black’s wife.

After sending the message, Jane Sampson quickly sent another one.

You already gave me a Valentine’s Day gift, how come you thought to send me a red envelope all of a sudden? —— James Black’s wife.

Someone said he sent his girlfriend two red envelopes, and she was very happy. —— Jane Sampson’s Mr.Black.
