Depressed wife runs with the ball
Chapter 110 Children of the Stars (2)
The child's mother quickly came over and said, "I'm sorry, it was careless. How about I... compensate you?"
"No need." Chu Yue tugged at the splashed area, his pure white coat suddenly stained with a touch of orange. The child stared blankly, not saying a word. Chu Yue smiled at him and said, "Can I borrow your paintbrush?" The child nodded.
She took off her coat, spread it on the ground, and began to paint on it. Children gradually joined in, and the crowd grew larger and larger, their voices rising. The exhibition staff quickly pulled up a barrier to separate the onlookers from the painters, and asked the onlookers to speak in low voices.
Seeing the future president's wife lying on the ground in a thin dress, she hurried to Zhou Xingzhi to report. Zhou Xingzhi stood up in a hurry and didn't care that his knees hit the corner of the table.
The president left, and the host on stage could only bite the bullet and continue hosting according to the program. As the president left, the crowd gathered towards the children.
The exhibition manager pulled up the banner and let Zhou Xingzhi in. He also called in two security guards to maintain order at the scene.
Chu Yue was wearing a white dress, the hem of which was held up by the children, and some of them even got paint on her dress while drawing.
The weather in December is already cold, and a dress and a coat can only be worn in a heated place. Now she is lying on the ground, and the coat is also provided.
Does she like children or does she like painting? Zhou Xingzhi could only take off his suit jacket and put it on her.
She was wearing multiple layers of clothing and she realized that there were so many people gathered.
"Are you done?" She stood up and spoke to him in a low voice.
"Everyone comes here to watch you paint." Zhou Xingzhi answered truthfully.
"Keep your voice down." She pointed at the child and asked him to be quiet.
The children had no concept of finishing. After finishing one place, they moved on to another. The children's guardians quickly stopped them.
"Are you cold?" Zhou Xingzhi pulled her away from the children.
The media around were taking photos and videos.
The children were pulled back to the easel, where the coat lay spread out on the floor. Chu Yue picked up a brush and walked over to the coat, painting the chaotic flowers and plants on it.
Zhou Xingzhi sat on the steps and watched. It seemed that she only felt happy from the bottom of her heart when she was painting.
The children had all finished their drawings, but Chu Yue hadn't yet. Before her mother took the child away, the child looking at the street scene ran up to her and said, "Sister, you're sick."
"I'm fine." Chu Yue put away the pen and answered her seriously.
"No." The child shook his head and ran away.
This was something she had not expected, and she stood there looking at the child's back.
"What are you talking about? Are you done with the painting?" Zhou Xingzhi handed her the thermos cup and walked forward to shake her hand, which was very cold.
"Nothing, the painting is finished, I'll find someone to hang it up." Chu Yue wanted to find the person in charge of the exhibition.
"Someone will take care of it." Zhou Xingzhi looked at his watch and it was almost time to set off for Haicheng.
"Chu Yue!" A female voice behind him echoed clearly in the exhibition.
She subconsciously turned around and saw the girl lifting the horizontal bar and picking up the bucket of water next to the easel to pour it on her.
Zhou Xingzhi quickly blocked her in his arms, and the dirty water splashed on his back, soaking his sweater and falling to the ground.
Security quickly dragged the woman away, and the exhibition manager rushed over to see what was happening. Many media and visitors pulled out their phones and cameras to take photos and videos. The woman continued to shout, "Your mother evaded taxes and was jailed for breaking the law. How can you still live so well? Everything I said online was true. Why did you make me lose my job?"
Chu Yue stared at Zhou Xingzhi, who had shielded her from the dirty water. He must be very cold. If she had known, she should have asked him to wear a coat before going out.
"Xingzhi, are you cold? Do you want to take off your sweater? Go back to the office to change clothes or..." Chu Yue wanted to take off her suit jacket and give it to him.
The person in charge of the exhibition found a blanket for him to cover himself with. Chu Yue wrapped him tightly and kept asking him if he was cold, as if he was panicked.
"It's okay, go back to the office and change your clothes first." Zhou Xingzhi was calmer than her. Seeing her so nervous, he thought it was a blessing in disguise.
When returning to the car, he could vaguely hear the girl cursing: "Your mother is in jail, how can you be a good person! Why do you make me unemployed! Bitch!" Chu Yue had met this girl before. She was a trainee lawyer under Lawyer Jiang.
For a law student, finding an internship at a law firm, working under a prestigious lawyer, must be a rare opportunity. "Did you say anything to Lawyer Jiang the last time she came to the company?" Sitting in the car, Chu Yue knew without hesitation that Zhou Xingzhi was definitely responsible for the girl's job loss.
"What did you say? I'm still cold, hug me." Zhou Xingzhi took off his sweater and only wore a shirt. Chu Yue wanted to take off his suit, but he wouldn't let her and insisted on sticking to her.
"That's Lawyer Jiang's trainee lawyer. She came here twice to handle my mother's case. Did you say something to Lawyer Jiang that caused her to lose her job?" Chu Yue rubbed his back back and forth, fearing that he would catch a cold or fever.
A trainee lawyer? So this girl was the one who broke the news online. She's so young, yet she's ruining her own future by filing a complaint first. Losing her job would be the least of her worries. "I'm not some gangster. I don't even know a trainee lawyer, so why would I bother with her?"
He could act like a little white rabbit in front of his girlfriend with ease and without blushing or getting nervous.
"It's really not you?" Chu Yue was half-believing and half-doubting. If it wasn't him, who else could it be?
"We'll be going to Haicheng soon, and I might have to let the driver drive. I'm afraid I'll be driving while tired." It's really not worth it to spend time on a trainee lawyer.
"With so much going on today, it's not absolutely necessary to go. We can go in a few days."
"No, how can I go back on my word?" How can I not have the heroine appear?
After returning to the office, taking a shower and changing into clean clothes, Chu Yue made him some brown sugar ginger tea and asked him to drink it. Zhou Xingzhi frowned, as he couldn't stand the taste of ginger tea.
"Why don't you drink it?" Chu Yue came out pushing the suitcase and saw that the cup of ginger tea was untouched. "Let's go, we're running out of time." He took the suitcase and tried to get away with it.
She could only pour the brown sugar ginger water into a thermos and take the thermos with her into the elevator.
"Actually, we don't have to go every year. We can go during the Qingming Festival in the future." Anyway, the main purpose is to visit the grandparents. Chu Jie'an and Huang Yunfu can still go during the Qingming Festival this year, but they can't go next year, so only she, the granddaughter, can go.
"Yeah." Zhou Xingzhi also felt that it was busy and cold at the end of the year, so it would be appropriate to go to the Qingming Festival to offer sacrifices.
They slept late for the opening ceremony and woke up early in the morning, so they spent most of the journey sleeping in the car. The driver wondered if Mr. Zhou would be angry because Mr. Zhou was proposing and a group of people from the company were going to Haicheng for team building. The Youth Art Festival was all busy with the branch office staff.
He had worked with Mr. Zhou for years and now drove for Mr. Zhou Jr., who had grown up under his watch. He had no problem getting what he wanted. Everyone else thought his dream of becoming a civil servant or a police officer after graduation was just a ploy to confuse his brother, Zhou Jihuai.
Taking the civil service exam and becoming a policeman can, firstly, make the brother let down his guard, and secondly, if the brother commits something, it will be easy for me as a policeman to collect evidence.
During the years that Mr. Zhou was president, he seemed to obey Mr. Zhou's orders. In reality, Mr. Zhou's former team had been largely sidelined, leaving them with little real power. Those who obeyed were allowed to remain in the company and receive dividends and equity. Those who disobeyed were directly assigned to manage unpopular, marginal companies. The old shareholders were aging and unable to afford any major changes. Even if they tried to assign their children to the company, they would easily be eliminated.
This Miss Chu came to work beside him and became his girlfriend. I don't know how she managed to win over him. If one day, Mr. Zhou no longer likes her, it will be difficult for the girl.
"Uncle Miao, how long will it take to get there?" I glanced out the window and it seemed like we had gotten off the highway.
"About twenty minutes. Mr. Zhou looks tired." Uncle Miao had never seen Mr. Zhou sleep so soundly in the car.
