AGAIN???
BRO
im about to crash out
you cant be serious
PSJ
Wait, are you sure?
zhuo小zhuo
Yeah
Wen xiao told me
xiaoxiao
i saw it in the firm’s booking portal :/
ying lei!
dude
zhuo小zhuo
I know
PSJ
What do we do?
xiaoxiao
well, nothing
except we have to be sure not to mention it or bring it up in any way
ying lei!
how can we know that’ll even work
as far as i’m concerned xiao zhao’s dick is like a homing pigeon any time that man is within 100 miles of him
PSJ
There are minors in this chat.
ying lei!
as far as i’m concerned xiao zhao’s nose can sniff out that man like a shark can sniff out blood in the water
gongying bai jiu daren
its okay i read webcomics lol
zhuo小zhuo
What
PSJ
Ying Lei’s right. Even if we don’t say a word, doesn’t he always just contact Zhao Yuanzhou directly?
xiaoxiao
he said he blocked his number after last time
zhuo小zhuo
I’m not sure i believe that
Maybe he did for a few days, but he’s fucking hopeless
I’ve seen with my own eyes a text come in when he was showing me a video from some unknown number but he was way too hasty with his swipe to get rid of the notification
ying lei!
maybe it was one of his crime friends
xiaoxiao
already??
zhuo小zhuo
No no this was like three fights ago after breakup 296
And no it was not one of his crime friends
The text said nothing but “In town if you’re free tonight” and nothing else
And where was he that night? gone
Couldn’t tell you where the fuck he went and didn’t get back till afternoon the next day
PSJ
I thought he went back to Macau.
For “offshore trading.”
xiaoxiao
regardless of where he went, the problem is he’s here, and given how bad their last fight was, i’m not sure xiao zhao should know
if he comes looking, we can just tell him he’s gone on business
ying lei!
wait it was bad?
zhuo小zhuo
Yeah
Sorry i only told wen xiao jie about it. it didn’t feel right to air out his business even though this shit annoys me so bad
xiaoxiao
♥♥ you were just looking out for him!!
zhuo小zhuo
No
PSJ
I suggest we go with Wen Xiao’s idea. Lie if he comes looking.
Also, make Zhao Yuanzhou share his location with one of you.
zhuo小zhuo
Lol he will never agree to that. it’s fine, i’ll just work from home more for the next few weeks and be pushy about asking him where he’s going at night.
One of you borrow his car so he can’t take mine. he hates driving stick
Maybe we need to plan some stuff for the weekends so he’s distracted?
ying lei!
OOOH
can i host a dinner party
zhuo小zhuo
You can host an orgy for all i care. anything to keep him away from that dickhead
ying lei!
YEEESSSSS
i’ll create an event in the groupchat
PSJ
Minors, Xiao Chen.
zhuo小zhuo
Wait speaking of xiao jiu. what do you mean you ‘read webcomics’?
What are you reading
BAI JIU
pei jiejie ♥ ↦
When Xiao Jiu says “crash out,” what does that mean?
↤ Wen Xiao from Zhuo & Baize LLP
i’ll be honest with you, i have no clue
just looked it up and i think it means something along the lines of ‘i’m going to lose my mind,’ to be used in a situation that upsets you greatly
that’s my guess!
pei jiejie ♥ ↦
I see…
Did you ever figure out what “Skibidi” was?
i’m afraid you’ve got demons
ying lei! has scheduled an event: Dinner Party This Weekend!
ying lei!
everyone pull up!!!! dressing up is encouraged
and don’t worry about the time just come whenever after noon, i’ll probably be cooking until around 5 or 6
xiaoxiao
do we have a dress up theme?
i want to do 20s!!
actually, i just wanted to wear this green qipao i haven’t had a chance to wear…
zhao大哥
wear it regardless you look gorgeous in it
anyway fuck yeah i’ll be there ying lei
what’s the occasion??
ying lei
just wanted to test some new recipes on you guys…
:3
PSJ
Cool. I’ll be there.

zhuo小zhuo

ying lei
hold on before i lose you guys can everyone check this list of your food allergies
and let me know if anything’s changed
[IMG_2923.jpg]
PSJ
Looks right, still nothing for me. Thanks.
xiaoxiao
pei jiejie and her stomach of steel ♥
nothing for me either! thanks ying lei
zhuo小zhuo
I don’t have allergies. my histamines are only robust when called upon. unless you count zhao yuanzhou
zhao大哥
so close! that is cannibalism
ying lei!
everyone can eat onions garlic cilantro and spice right
gongying ba jiu daren
ya
ying lei!
okay good
zhuo小zhuo
Moderate spice if possible
zhao大哥
weak ass
wen xiao jie ↦
any sign he knows?
↤ zhuo yichen
Don’t think so. hasn’t left his desk all night
Still bent over his case book and hasn’t looked at his phone either. heard him on calls but they were definitely work
wen xiao jie ↦
that’s good
ugh i can’t believe i’m this nervous
this isn’t even my ex
maybe i’m being too nosy, but that last fight they had was so upsetting. i can’t keep watching him do this to himself
he’s smart about everything except this!!
↤ zhuo yichen
Because he’s a fucking idiot lol
Except i can’t even say that to him because then he won’t say shit to us ever again. though i’m pretty sure he knows exactly how i feel
wen xiao jie ↦
yeah…
↤ zhuo yichen
Feel like i need to remind pei sijing of that sometimes. if she ever meets him again she might actually kill him
wen xiao jie ↦
and she’d be right!
but yeah, i know. the others don’t know everything right?
↤ zhuo yichen
Nope
Not the growing up together part
Definitely don’t know about the hospital stay and the bill payout. or the flowers on his birthday
Pei sijing might know about the plus one thing at zhao wan’er’s wedding just because of the old pictures in the office but she’s never brought it up
Xiao jiu hasn’t even seen the guy. he just knows his zhao da-ge refuses to own a single umbrella for dumbfuck reasons
wen xiao jie ↦
he gets sick every single winter because of it
drives me insane
↤ zhuo yichen
Why are we friends with him
wen xiao jie ↦
because he saved zhuo & baize llp and gave you a place in this city after your family was disgraced
↤ zhuo yichen
Uuuggghhhh
wen xiao jie ↦
