After marrying a scientific research tycoon, I retired early and won
Chapter 68 Looking for My Wife
At this moment, the arrow is on the string and must be shot.
Zhou Xiaoli had no choice but to walk over and said, "Cousin."
She is obviously my cousin, but she acts like she is weaker.
And she is indeed much shorter. She is only 1.56 meters tall, while her cousin Zhou Zhixi is about 1.7 meters tall and her cousin Zhou Jingmo is 1.9 meters tall. It is obvious that they all grew up with their grandparents.
Zhou Jingmo smiled, "What's the matter?"
Seeing him ask this, Zhou Xiaoli spoke very quickly as usual, "Yes, cousin, I am now..."
However, this time she still didn't finish her words before she was interrupted by Zhou Jingmo, "Let's talk about it later."
Zhou Xiaoli has gotten used to it. Their cousin appears to be polite and gentle, but is actually a sinister person behind the scenes. He always says, "You can talk, but I don't have to listen." Then, he will definitely say that he is busy with something.
"I'm busy looking for my wife."
Zhou Xiaoli looked up in surprise. This was similar to what he usually said, but also subtly different.
His wife? His wife is here today too?
Zhou Jingmo stood high up, so he could see far. With his height, it was easy for him to see clearly, especially since she was such a beautiful and elegant girl, he could spot her at a glance in the crowd.
But today, he really put in some effort to find her.
She was surrounded by three layers of people inside and outside, wrapped tightly in the crowd.
He said how come he couldn't see her all of a sudden, she was really capable, in just a short while she made it look like a parade on the street.
Zhou Jingmo curled his lips.
Ji Ning was standing in front of the manager, her cheeks puffy like a crystal bun.
With her as the backbone, Wang Shuqin told her all the grievances she had suffered during this period.
After listening to what Wang Shuqin said, other people also began to complain about Zhou Xiaoli.
"I came here to buy a hairpin once, and her eyes rolled up to the sky."
"She left me alone to deal with foreigners."
"Tsk! She's a salesperson at a state-owned store. She's in the service industry! Aren't customers God? She's even more arrogant than us customers!"
The manager was about to speak when he suddenly saw Zhou Jingmo standing not far away.
The man was dressed casually today, and the grey slacks made his legs look longer.
A strand of hair fell unruly on his forehead, making him look a bit unruly, but this casualness further deepened the three-dimensionality of his facial features.
The manager is also in a dilemma today.
Even if Mr. Zhou protects Zhou Xiaoli, given the current situation, this matter probably cannot be resolved amicably.
"I fully understand what you are saying." The manager clasped his hands together.
When Ji Ning heard this, she realized that this was clearly the press release that business people usually use, with the main point being not to offend anyone.
She just stretched out her hand, ready to show her strength and do whatever she wants.
Ah?
Suddenly, her body felt lighter and her feet were suspended in the air. She was actually lifted up by someone.
Still looking for accomplices?
She turned around and grabbed the other person's clothes with both hands.
Upon closer inspection, she was a little dazed, and then again, she saw that this was clearly what she had picked for someone today.
Zhou Jingmo has excellent taste, but his clothes are very formal, and apart from work, he seldom goes to any casual occasions.
He asked Ji Ning to choose for him. After choosing again and again, Ji Ning frowned and picked out this black turtleneck sweater with a dark gray long coat. The man had broad shoulders and long legs, and was a natural clothes hanger, so the coat was perfect for him.
He also said that he would go to the department store today and buy him a few more sets of casual New Year's greeting clothes.
"Cousin!" Zhou Xiaoli chased after him, panting. Her short legs were inconvenient.
Ji Ning was stunned. Cousin?
But she was not at all confused, and now she was in a difficult situation.
Regardless of whether Zhou Jingmo supports the principle or the relatives, her position is definitely determined, otherwise Wang Shuqin will only suffer more.
So, she would not just quit.
"Cousin?" Zhou Xiaoli's suspicious eyes fell on Zhou Jingmo's hand, which was still grasping Ji Ning's collar, in an orderly manner.
Her cousin usually doesn't have close contact with others. When he goes to his grandparents' place, they don't dare to pick up food for him.
But he is powerful and has the final say. But now he is clearly pulling the girl's clothes and his fingertips are rubbing the back of her neck.
It's a bit like the way they lift a cat.
Zhou Xiaoli understood everything at once and her face turned pale. She looked at Ji Ning and gave a dry laugh, a smile that was uglier than crying.
This is the nth time she has changed her attitude today, so forget it.
Ji Ning also looked at her and smiled, her smile as bright as a blooming flower.
The manager was a smart guy and understood it at a glance. He had heard that Mr. Zhou was married but had not sent a gift yet, so he had to recognize this face carefully.
He frowned and said something he wanted to scold her about before, but now he didn't care about it and just poured it all out, "Zhou Xiaoli!"
"……exist."
Zhou Xiaoli was frightened by him. She had never heard such a serious and sharp voice from a manager before. She stood there weakly and timidly.
The previous arrogance has been extinguished.
"You have been complained about more than once or twice. I have decided that from today on, you will be suspended from work without pay for observation."
Zhou Xiaoli was stunned by the news.
Being put on leave without pay is only one step away from being laid off.
That shouldn’t be the case. Didn’t she just steal some of Wang Shuqin’s orders?
It's common for regular workers to take orders from temporary workers, so why should she be punished?
She burst into tears and wailed, "Cousin, I apologize to you. Please forgive me for the sake of our family."
Ji Ning remained unmoved, she was determined.
Zhou Xiaoli turned her head and looked at Wang Shuqin, the poor-looking woman whom she had looked down upon the most. In front of so many colleagues, she gritted her teeth and lowered her head, "Shuqin, I apologize to you. I will never ask you to do anything again."
The crowd was applauding. Zhou Xiaoli saw that those colleagues who were closest to her were also applauding secretly, and they looked happy that the evil forces had been defeated.
She was so angry that her lungs were about to explode. This was really a case of everyone pushing the problem down when the wall fell.
"Mom...Mom..." Zhou Xiaoli returned home crying out of breath.
"Oh, my dear daughter, why are you crying like this? And..." Wu Fenfang looked at the wall clock, "Why are you back so early? Isn't it the busy season for department stores these days?"
Zhou Xiaoli slapped the table, her hand aching and shedding a few tears, "Mom, you are right, Zhou Jingmo is a lunatic, he doesn't care about the feelings of his family at all, that sister-in-law is a disaster."
Other families value family ties so much that when one relative becomes successful, everyone will help him/her.
Even though Zhou Jingmo was so rich, he never mentioned introducing her to his company as a small boss.
Wu Fenfang was confused. Zhou Xiaoli told her the whole story while crying. Wu Fenfang sneered and said, "Before, I was busy with Miao Xiu and Zhou Jingmo's affairs, and you didn't worry about it. Now the fire has burned you. Do you know the pain?"
In her opinion, although Zhou Jingmo belongs to the second brother's family, he is hers, and his things are hers.
But now he doesn't spend money on his own family, but instead spends money on women outside.
Ayuan doesn't listen to her now, but she will have something to cry about in the future. Isn't it enough that he forgets his mother after he gets a wife?
