Depressed wife runs with the ball

Chapter 132 Someone Wants to Make a Pretense Real

When Yu En came in the afternoon, Zhou Xingzhi was already sleeping in a chair. He was tall, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and the chair was a little small for him. Yu En carefully placed the prepared lunch box on the bedside table and pointed at him, looking inquiringly at Chu Yue.

"My boyfriend was passing by on a business trip. The teacher woke up twice in the middle of the night, groggy and talking to me for a long time. I wiped her body."

Yu En was somewhat grateful and pointed at her watch, signaling her to go back and rest.

Chu Yue woke Zhou Xingzhi up and took him back to the hotel. After leaving the ward, Zhou Xingzhi held her hand and said, "Next time, tell people you're my fiancé, not my boyfriend."

"Did you hear that? Still pretending to be asleep?" Chu Yue really couldn't figure out the bottom line of his energy. He slept little, but there was nothing wrong with his body. Why was there such a big gap between people?

After getting the suitcase back from the nurse's station, Chu Yue took him back to the hotel. After putting down the suitcase, they went downstairs to eat.

Zhou Xingzhi recalled that the last time he came to Beijing was when he had just graduated and accompanied his mother to visit the Academy of Fine Arts. At that time, Xinghui had a funding program for poor students in the Academy of Fine Arts.

"Can we go to your school?"

Chu Yue looked at the time. The hospital was not far from the school, so he could go there. Maybe he could even have a meal in the third cafeteria. "Then I can treat you to a meal in the cafeteria!"

"Do you have any memories of... back in school?"

In fact, what he wanted to ask was whether returning to school would remind her of Shen Yaolin.

"Yes, I stayed in the studio all year round. Once, I fell asleep in the studio and was kicked out by the security guard. My face was covered with paint and my hair had been washed several times. In fact, the studio was quite scary at night. The plaster bust and the nude model would reflect light." Chu Yue recalled and still felt that those days passed too quickly.

"Aren't you afraid?" Zhou Xingzhi stopped a taxi, got in, and asked the driver to drive to the Academy of Fine Arts.

"I heard it from the people in the dormitory, I didn't notice it myself." Chu Yue now thinks that at that time he was only thinking about painting and didn't pay attention to the surrounding environment.

Zhou Xingzhi actually wanted to ask if he would think of Ji Yan when he returned to school. If he didn't mention it, he might not think of him, but if he did, he would definitely think of him. "You definitely don't know, I saw your photo from the Academy of Fine Arts on the group's OA."

"Photos? Those must be from many years ago, right?"

"Yes, I searched for it on purpose. I didn't expect that I still had a back figure."

Hearing her say this, Zhou Xingzhi's eyes lit up and he straightened his back slightly. The fatigue brought by the journey suddenly disappeared. How could this not be fate? "Where is it? I'll find it when I get back to the office." He suppressed his inner excitement and asked calmly.

"What are you laughing at?" Even though he didn't smile, Chu Yue could still sense the change in his mood. "I... wasn't laughing." Zhou Xingzhi was a little shocked. He never showed his emotions, so few people could guess what he was thinking.

"You didn't smile on your face, but you were smiling in your heart. I felt it." Chu Yue didn't know what was so funny about this, and was even a little angry.

Now, she can sense everything I'm thinking. If I have any bad thoughts in the future, won't she be able to control me? "I just feel that we are destined to be together."

In winter, it gets dark early, so the school isn't crowded. The cafeteria is packed, with Chu Yue queuing for food while Zhou Xingzhi takes a seat. During a break, he still managed to ask, "How did you and... Shen Yaolin know each other?"

"Shen Yaolin is from the school next door and often hangs around our place. I don't know where he saw me, but he started to block me. I couldn't stand it anymore, and I had no way to complain, so I agreed to be his girlfriend."

Chu Yue said it nonchalantly, and Zhou Xingzhi was already a little angry when he heard this.

"But I'm very busy and often don't receive his calls. He rarely replies to WeChat messages, and we only meet twice a week. During college alone, he cheated on several girls, but I also heard about it."

"Why do you only hear things?"

"It's really busy! I have to participate in competitions and study at the same time. Moreover, I am the key training target of teachers in various subjects. I will be called out if I slack off at all." Now that I think about it, it's probably because I was young that I was regarded as a key protected target by teachers in various subjects.

Zhou Xingzhi nodded, fortunately she was busy in college.

The two walked around the school hand in hand, and Chu Yue introduced him to various buildings and some student works. At that moment, Zhou Xingzhi felt that her university life, in which he was also a participant, had filled a certain void in his heart.

After leaving school and taking a taxi back to the hotel, Chu Yue felt that he seemed to be in a good mood tonight. He even jumped over the roadblocks after getting off the car.

"Aren't you a little arrogant because you're in such a good mood?" She couldn't even understand how he got so good.

"No, I just... thought the meal was pretty good, and the environment in your school is also very good." I hurried to explain, fearing that she would misunderstand that I was gloating over her teacher's illness.

Li Wanyun felt strangely irritated when she saw Zhou Xingzhi return. When she discussed the project budget and receivables cycle with Guo Tongchu, he again appeared clueless, which only made her even more angry, slamming documents and throwing them around.

"No, man! Cycles are time, and time is money. How can you not consider that? How can making 100 million back in two months be the same as making 300 million back in three months? How many times have I told you this? You still don't understand?"

"No, returning 300 million in three months will make things easier for the company." He just felt that at least it would save a lot of financial work and the process would be simpler.

"Brother! You're working on the annual operating budget! You're applying for a budget from the group, not... I really..." Li Wanyun was speechless, holding his forehead and sighing. After calming down, he said weakly, "The annual operating budget is a budget, and facts are facts. These are two different things. You need to follow the group's requirements and do it in detail."

Guo Tongchu nodded, half understanding. Li Wanyun had never lost her temper like this when Jiang Tao was attending an internal meeting of the investment department at the group. Even when the documents submitted by the lower-level staff were riddled with loopholes, she would revise them herself and then throw them in front of the staff to have them redone.

Moreover, this new director wouldn't be in such a bad mood when he was working at the group. On the way back to the hotel that night, he advised, "Boss Zhou asked you to come here to help him, not to cause trouble."

"What do you mean?" She felt a little annoyed, as if someone had seen through her bad intentions.

"Nothing special, Director Li, have a good rest." Jiang Tao blocked the elevator door and asked her to leave. "How could a secretary like you lecture me?" She stamped her foot, snorted, and walked out of the elevator.

It's not his turn to teach him a lesson, but as the president's secretary, he always has to have the ability to see through such things.

Before Chu Yue went to sleep, she received a WeChat message from Ji Yan. It contained several screenshots of Li Wanyun leaving Zhou Xingzhi's hotel room. Zhou Xingzhi even stood at the door and watched her go back.

Chu Yue made a voice call, but Ji Yan didn't answer. Zhou Xingzhi's phone kept vibrating, and she couldn't help but glance at it. It was from Li Wanyun: "That Guo Tongchu is so stupid..."

She suddenly remembered that Guo Tongchu had been transferred to an overseas branch by Zhou Xingzhi, and she thought that he didn't let her go with him because he really understood that she was not feeling well.

Before I could come to my senses, another message came through my phone: [Your father knows I’m here…]

If you say this is really nothing, Chu Yue would never believe it. The ex-girlfriend is probably the real ex-girlfriend, and someone just wants to get back together.

Another message popped up on the phone: [What the hell is going on with you?...]

Zhou Xingzhi came out of the shower, and Chu Yue looked up at him. "Why aren't you asleep yet? Are you waiting for me?"

"Are you still busy with things in Singapore? Are you flying to Singapore tomorrow?"

"Jiang Tao and Wan Yun are in Singapore. Didn't you tell me to go back to the group to take charge of the overall situation?" Zhou Xingzhi turned on the computer and wanted to look for the photo she mentioned.

"Ah~ And Wanyun, how could I forget!" Chu Yue said sarcastically. "You didn't let me accompany you on this business trip. Are you afraid I'd see Guo Tongchu or run into Li Wanyun?"
