My friend's uncle took a fancy to me

Liu Dongyi was stunned by Zhou Qizhen's address.

I thought to myself, why is this guy so easygoing today? Is he asking for help with something?

No matter how hard he tried to get close to him before, he always remained polite and only addressed her by her last name and position. Today, he was a little surprised.

"Haha! Qi Zheng! How come you have time to call Uncle Liu today?"

Zhou Qizheng's cold voice came from the other end of the phone, and he said slowly, "Uncle Liu, it's like this. As you know, Shen Yi and I's technology company has just gone public, and we have a lot of things to do. But even so, I have to consider the people and things I cherish. I have been working hard to run the company and follow all the regulations."

Liu Dongyi didn't quite understand what he said, but he knew what he had encountered: "Qi Zheng! What happened to you that needs Uncle Liu's help?"

Zhou Qizhen spoke in a neither humble nor arrogant tone, maintaining the calmness and elegance of a business man in every word. He walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the bustling city scene outside with his deep eyes.

"Uncle Liu, let me be frank. I did encounter some minor issues involving the behavior of some young people, which may have unnecessary impacts on me, my family, and those around me."

"I know you're busy with government affairs, but with your keen insight into the city, I think mentioning this to you might offer some guidance. It would be best to encourage young people to focus their energy on more appropriate matters, rather than getting bogged down in misguided emotions and causing unnecessary turmoil for both families. Uncle Liu, what do you think?"

Liu Dongyi listened to the words with a frown. In the business arena, people said that Zhou Qizhen was extremely cunning and unfathomable, like a deep abyss.

To describe him as versatile is nothing more than a display of humility. Compared to his actual abilities, it is also a great compliment to his opponents.

Just like the current situation, Zhou Qizhen did not say it so directly, which was considered to give him enough face.

Liu Dongyi felt guilty and helpless towards his son Tang Qian. He wanted him to settle down earlier so that someone would take care of him, but that bastard had very high standards. He looked at many girls but didn't like any of them. However, he fell in love with a woman who was related to Zhou Qizhen.

Tang Ci called him a few days ago and said that Tang Qian has changed a lot and everything is developing for the better.

He was relieved for a long time at that time. As long as he could be fine and stop worrying about others, it would be fine. However, after just a few days, people came to sue him.

"Qi Zheng, I'll ask what happened later. I won't make things difficult for that girl."

Zhou Qizheng's eyes darkened, and he said quietly, "Okay, then my wife and I would like to thank Uncle Liu first."

Liu Dongyi was stunned: "Madam? What do you mean?"

Zhou Qizheng raised his lip on the other end of the phone. "My wife and I registered for our marriage certificate at the beginning of last month, but we haven't announced it to anyone yet. Of course, Uncle Liu, I don't treat you as an outsider, so I wanted to let you know first. When the wedding date is set, I'll definitely be the first to notify you."

Liu Dongyi was shocked at the moment. As far as he knew, the girl had no family background. Zhou Qizhen was able to break the conventional way of marriage and marry such an ordinary woman. The position of this girl in his heart must be extraordinary.

Provoking Zhou Qizhen's woman and provoking Zhou Qizhen's wife are two different things.

Liu Dongyi held his breath and no longer had the attitude of a superior. His tone was full of the helplessness and earnestness of a father.

"Qi Zheng, don't worry. I will give you a satisfactory explanation for this matter. I promise not to let him disturb your wife again."

Zhou Qizheng finally said with satisfaction: "Okay, sorry to trouble you!"

Liu Dongyi was a little embarrassed: "Alas, it was Uncle Liu who caused you trouble."

The two exchanged a few polite words and then hung up the phone.

……

After Lu Xiaoqiao sent Tang Qian away, he spent the entire morning revising the blueprint of Jiang Heng and Hongfa. Just before lunch, he uploaded the revised blueprint to the group of people that Hongfa had previously created.

She also @ everyone and asked if they were satisfied, because time was tight. If there were no objections, she would start making samples.

There were four people in the group, including Lu Xiaoqiao. After the three party A members gave their consent, Lu Xiaoqiao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After solving a big problem, lunch tasted much better.

While eating in the cafeteria, Zhao Jia looked at Lin Lin, who was poking at the rice grains with chopsticks and had not taken many bites.

"Lin Lin, you don't have a good appetite! You eat so little, even Xiao Qiao doesn't eat as much."

Lu Xiaoqiao ate a chicken drumstick and now used his chopsticks to pick up the scrambled egg skin with dried radish on the plate: "Yeah, Lin Lin, why didn't you eat much? The dried radish today is delicious."

Lin Lin said weakly: "What's delicious? It's so sour."

"It's very refreshing, try it." Lu Xiaoqiao said and then picked up another piece with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.

Lin Lin shook her head: "I don't want to eat. I'm upset."

Zhao Jia asked her, "What are you upset about?"

Lu Xiaoqiao took another bite of dried radish and asked Lin Lin, "Yes, is there anything else that can bother you?"

Lin Lin took a sip of soup and looked at Lu Xiaoqiao: "Did my uncle tell you that his family comes to visit my grandmother's grave every Qingming Festival?"

Lu Xiaoqiao nodded: "I did. I mentioned it when I called yesterday. What's the matter?"

"She has a daughter who is two years older than us. She just graduated from graduate school this year. My grandmother said that she will not go back this time and will come to work at my uncle's technology company."

"She goes to her job, what's it to you?"

Lin Lin said miserably, "Alas! She said she would stay at my grandfather's house. You don't know, she is very skilled in Taoism. I'm afraid that I will be as miserable as Xiao Qiao."

Lu Xiaoqiao couldn't help but laugh out loud: "How is that possible? You have so little confidence in your grandpa? Even if she looks like Zheng Yan, you are not me. If she really bullies you, you can move in with us."

Lin Lin pursed her lips and said, "My uncle won't welcome me."

……

Two days later.

Lu Xiaoqiao got the sample clothes made for Hongfa.

She @ed a few people in the group and asked them to take the samples to show them when she had time in the afternoon.

The head of Hongfa's logistics department felt that the boss had already made the decision and that looking at the samples was just a formality, so he told Lu Xiaoqiao directly in the group.

"Your company is so close to Jiang Heng, why not just show it to Team Leader Jiang? That way you don't have to run back and forth."

Team leader Jiang is the short-haired woman who made things difficult for Lu Xiaoqiao when they first met.

But the drawings have been confirmed, so there shouldn’t be any mistakes. It’s so close and I don’t have to travel so far to Hongfa.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiaoqiao packed up her things and went to Jiang Heng with the samples.

This time, her mood was completely different from the last time. When she thought of Zhou Qizhen, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.

He has been on a business trip for several days. Although I call him every day, I still can't help but miss him.
