Depressed wife runs with the ball

Driving to the airport to pick him up? Isn't the car parked at the airport? Secretary Jiang can't drive?

Everyone should be on the plane at this time, and there is no cell phone signal. I have no choice but to take the subway to the airport.

Sure enough, she had already landed before she even arrived at the airport. When she answered the phone, she was still on the subway.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Zhou, I haven't arrived at the airport yet. You may have to wait."

"It's okay, I'll wait for you." He was at the airport, waiting patiently.

He's waiting for... Where's Secretary Jiang?

"Uh...you may have to wait for me for ten minutes." Chu Yue looked at the subway station and saw that there were still a few stops left.

The car keys were in his hand, and Jiang Tao had already taken a taxi home.

"Well, I'm in the parking lot." After hanging up the phone, he put the luggage in the trunk.

The subway was moving slowly, as if eager to close the distance between the two young people. Chu Yue looked at the couple sitting opposite her, inseparable, and felt nothing.

After arriving at the airport, she ran to the parking lot and searched for a few minutes before finding the luxury car. Zhou Xingzhi was dozing off in the car.

It was already winter and the weather was a bit cold. Chu Yue was wearing a woolen coat, breathing out white air when he spoke, and his nose was a little red from the cold.

He got in the car, fastened his seat belt, and wanted to navigate to his home. Looking at him, Zhou Xingzhi uttered a few words: "Go back to Cuiyuan."

Chu Yue looked at the back row and saw the bag of clothes he had just thrown away. Uh... he shouldn't have brought it.

"Um... Mr. Zhou, your business trip must be very tiring. You'll have to sleep on the sofa when you return to Cuiyuan. Why don't I take you back home?"

Zhou Xingzhi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he looked up at her. She seemed a little thinner after not seeing her for a few days, but she was wearing light makeup today. Did she put on makeup specially to come and see him?

"Are you sure you want to go back to my house?"

Uh... How did he manage to switch between wolf and dog so easily? Forget it, let's go back to Cuiyuan.

Start the car, pay the parking fee, and return to Cuiyuan.

When she returned to Cuiyuan, she remembered that Teacher Yang would also be coming tomorrow, and wondered if she could take a day off to pick him up at the airport. So she attentively poured him a cup of hot water and was about to say something.

Zhou Xingzhi nipped this idea in the bud, took the cup and shook his head.

"Professor Yang has a special car to pick you up, so don't bother. You have work to do tomorrow."

Eh? There's so much work to do every day, but the teacher doesn't come every day.

"How about this, you sleep in the room, I sleep on the sofa, and you let me take a day off tomorrow to pick up the plane?" She tried to negotiate.

"If you really want to go, it's not impossible. It's just..." His gaze passed over her and fell on the room. How could he get her to attend tomorrow's opening ceremony?

"Zhou Xingzhi, forget it!" Chu Yue thought he was thinking about something shameful and quickly interrupted him.

"What are you thinking about?" He was confused. He was just thinking about how to get her to attend the event tomorrow. Why was she so excited? She guessed it so quickly?

"You...if you don't want me to treat you, then don't treat me, humph!" Chu Yue went back to her room angrily, and came out angrily again. She took the calligraphy works on the drawing table to the study and slammed the door.

Zhou Xingzhi looked at her angry and embarrassed expression, and suddenly realized what she meant by "don't even think about it", and laughed to himself.

I was woken up by Jiang Tao's call in the morning. There was still a lot of work to be done regarding the opening ceremony in the evening.

He walked to the balcony to answer the phone, trying his best to keep his voice low for fear of waking up the people in the room.

"Mr. Zhou, do we need to reserve a seat for Mr. Ji Huai and his wife at the art festival?"

"Stay on my dad's left. Yueyue and I will stay on my mom's side, facing behind Professor Yang."

"Okay. Do you need to make any changes to tonight's program?"

"Mr. Mo can arrange these things."

"Okay." Jiang Tao hung up the phone.

He started to wash up and make breakfast.

Chu Yue was awakened by the sound of breakfast being prepared in the kitchen. In a trance, she thought she was back to her childhood. Her grandparents slept little and always got up at five or six o'clock to prepare breakfast. They would start waking her up at seven o'clock. After breakfast, she would follow her grandmother to sketch, and would also bring her textbooks to her grandfather's office to study.

She sat on the bed, feeling sad. It wasn't until Zhou Xingzhi knocked on the door that she threw off the covers and got up. She went to the study, facing the closet. Unsure what to wear, she simply threw on a sweater and jacket. She sat at the dining table, refusing to move.

"Why don't you change your clothes? Aren't you cold wearing so little?" Zhou Xingzhi's tone was unusually gentle. Early in the morning, he turned into a dog again.

Chu Yue's eyes flickered across the breakfast on the table. There was no coffee or tea, just bread, fried eggs, sausage, and fruit. She rested her face on her left hand, tilted her head, and said seriously, "Zhou Xingzhi, you sleep so little every night, always sleeping on the sofa, and getting up in the morning to make breakfast. Isn't this going to shorten your life?"

This nearly choked the man spreading cheese on his bread. "Do you really hate me that much? You're calling me a pervert and wishing me a quick death? After all, I saved you twice, so I'm a good person anyway, right?"

"I'm just analyzing the facts objectively." She picked up the water on the table, took a sip, and started eating breakfast. "Is it too late to make coffee today?" She looked at the wall clock. Today was ten minutes earlier than usual.

"Your period is coming soon, it's not good for you to drink coffee." Zhou Xingzhi roughly calculated her menstrual period based on his observations over the past few months.

This time it was Chu Yue's turn to be choked. As expected! It's inconvenient for men and women to live together!

"Don't you think it's inconvenient to live like this? What time do I get home from get off work? What else can I do? What do you distrust?"

"I was on a business trip for two weeks, and you were late for seven days. On three other days, you were late for work. Even when I drove you to work, you stayed in bed. There were always mistakes in the documents that passed through your hands. Why do you say I don't trust you?"

Chu Yue muttered quietly: "Maybe my ability is limited to this. If you have the guts, just fire me. Tsk."

"It's precisely because you always have these thoughts that I can't trust you." How could he not know the little tricks in her mind.

After breakfast, she lingered in the study for twenty minutes, changed her clothes, and reluctantly went out. Zhou Xingzhi seemed to have a lot of phone calls to answer this morning. When he saw her come out after changing her clothes, he was a little stunned. "Seeing the teacher, is she dressed so casually?"

A sweater, trousers, a down jacket, and a baseball cap. If he wore this to work, people would think this special assistant was a college graduate.

"Do you...want to change into something? This really doesn't look like a special assistant."

That's not the case. She has to meet the teacher today and she wants to be fired, so she is being willful.

"No time, let's go." She urged him from the entrance.

If she doesn’t want to, forget it. The stylist is already waiting for her in the company anyway.

There was no coffee or tea in the morning, and she felt a little sleepy and dozed off in the car. The winter sun shone on her face, the fur flickered fluorescently, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and the scarf almost covered half of her face.

The car was parked in the underground parking lot, and he didn't have the heart to wake her up. The ringing of the phone startled her.

"Sorry for waking you up." Zhou Xingzhi hung up the phone and got out of the car.

Chu Yue looked at his watch and was late for another day.

When she reached her workstation and wanted to go to the tea room to make herself a cup of coffee, a handsome older woman came up to her, observed her, and said, "Assistant Chu."

Didn't Zhou Xingzhi just come into the office? He finished his business so quickly and was about to leave? Chu Yue had no choice but to stand up, smile, and greet her: "Hello."

"Please." She gestured towards Zhou Xingzhi's office.

Huh? Chu Yue was a little confused. Zhou Xingzhi called her? But she still walked towards his office.

Then I saw a group of people in the office and several rows of clothes. Zhou Xingzhi was talking on the phone with his back to them.

This posture is to prepare her for the opening ceremony of the Youth Art Festival tonight. Her little tricks are useless to Zhou Xingzhi.

She sighed deeply, smiled politely at the woman, and said resignedly, "Thank you."

Fortunately, it wasn't some frigid dress. Just some normal winter wear. A pale yellow V-neck dress, a white cashmere coat, and ankle boots—pretty much her usual style.
