Depressed wife runs with the ball

Returning to Qiancheng to attend the wedding, he saw this so-called big brother. His eyes were completely dull, like a completely different person. He must have never agreed to this marriage, but his resistance was futile and he could only pretend it was a lie. He actually began to sympathize with him. Li Li was happy at the wedding, dragging her son around to introduce him to other women, hoping to find him a partner. After all, he had been working for two years and should consider these things.

Looking at the ladies from prominent families at the wedding, who were wearing formal gowns and exquisite makeup, he suddenly remembered the girl he had saved, who was lying on the hospital bed, pale and plain-looking. He didn't know what had happened to her that made her want to jump into the sea to commit suicide.

Old Master Zhou still pulled Zhou Xingzhi to the study and talked about Zhou Jihuai's marriage. He expressed his dissatisfaction with his previous attitude of resisting marriage.

Zhou Kecheng had always admired his youngest son, finding him steady and composed, unlike his brother, who was capricious and reckless. Even after he'd been assigned to the company for training, he hadn't achieved much. He had plenty of scandals and girlfriends, though, and the old man felt embarrassed to share them. This youngest son was different: uncompetitive, a good student, and self-disciplined in his career.

Zhou Xingzhi just sat on the sofa and listened quietly without expressing his opinion. He didn't know whether his future marriage would also be a deal carefully planned by Zhou Kecheng. Thinking of this, he felt a little lonely.

"Xingzhi, I think you should come back to the group and help an old man like me inherit this family business. You should also take good care of your brother and save him from some crises. Now that he has started a family, he should control his temper and think about starting a career." The old man sat at the desk, took off his glasses, and looked at his youngest son thoughtfully.

"Okay, I'll get ready." This day was finally coming, and he had no choice but to accept it.

The old man was satisfied with his attitude and did not make things difficult for him. He stayed in the old house for two days and then returned to the Municipal Bureau to submit his resignation application.

After Mo Xiaoxiao and Zhou Jihuai got married, they took time out to return to the Zhou family's old house for dinner and to meet their parents-in-law. It was then that they saw their uncle. They'd heard people in their circle mention that Zhou Er took after his mother and was considered a standout in appearance, but few had ever met him. Furthermore, Xinghui's father had been so focused on disciplining his eldest son over the years, rarely mentioning his second son. This led everyone to believe that Zhou Er wasn't valued by his father and wouldn't have a good future in the Zhou family, so they focused all their attention on Zhou Jihuai.

Now that she saw him, she felt that she had been at a disadvantage. Since they were strangers with no emotional basis, she might as well choose a good-looking one so that she would be pleasing to the eye when they quarreled in the future.

Although Zhou Jihuai is not ugly, it would be a bit cruel to compare him with Zhou Xingzhi.

On their wedding day, the bride was sent home alone for dinner. The old man flew into a rage at the table, smashing several ceramic bowls. Mo Xiaoxiao said nothing, concentrating on eating and... observing her brother-in-law. He was indeed handsome, radiating righteousness and youthfulness.

"Don't be offended, Xiaoxiao. The old man loves Ji Huai deeply and criticizes him harshly." Zhou Xingzhi's mother Li Li came out to smooth things over.

In Zhou Xingzhi's impression, his mother always obeyed his father's words and took care of all the affairs of the family. The only time she rebelled against his father was probably when he threatened to return to China to take the civil service exam and become a policeman. His mother slapped him on the spot and turned back to persuade Zhou Kecheng.

Zhou Kecheng didn't want the two brothers to argue over the family fortune. Since his son had no ambitions for the group, he agreed. If the group needed him, he could come back. Seeing his agreement, Li Li felt immature if she continued to ask him to work for the group. She could only watch helplessly as her son donned a police uniform and went to work as a police officer in another province.

Mo Xiaoxiao didn't know if it was because of Zhou Xingzhi, but she also had a good impression of Mrs. Zhou. She was pretty and dignified, and spoke softly.

"I understand." She looked at Zhou Xingzhi who was eating and responded politely.

Zhou Kecheng was very satisfied with his new daughter-in-law. Her performance at the dinner table made him feel that he had arranged a lady from a noble family for the Zhou family, and his mood also improved.

Although he submitted his resignation, the process took nearly half a year to complete. After leaving the police force, he joined Xinghui, first serving as CEO of a subsidiary investment company for six months before returning to the group to take over the position of president.

Although Chu Yue's house was settled, she still hadn't mentioned anything about moving or warming up, so Ji Yan had to ask about it himself. Chu Yue rested her left elbow on the table, her palm resting on her chin, squinting at him and saying, "Although it's settled, I have to decorate it myself. Besides, I don't like crowds. Just have a meal by yourself and consider it a way of congratulating me."

"You're treating?" Ji Yan knew that she was not interested in such lively events as housewarming and moving.

"I'm so poor, how can I afford to hire you? It would be better if I could ask you to stay in the kitchen and help wash dishes." She has been very tired these days because of the decoration.

"Let me see what you plan to decorate it like. I can give you some ideas." He wanted to see the blueprints and serve as an advisor.

Chu Yue stared at the stairs outside the glass door. He knew without thinking that the sound of high heels meant that this guy’s girlfriend must have come to make trouble. It would be another tough battle.

"Old Ji, you black-hearted capitalist, how long have I been asking you to upgrade your computer configuration? Have you done it? And Rui Cheng's client, he's so arrogant about spending 2.58 million, with gorgeous blue, colorful black, and even some blue with a hint of yellow. I think he's turned into a Minion! As soon as he mentioned his needs, he poked my computer screen with color positioning, and he really wanted to rely on me. How long have I tolerated him? How long have I tolerated you? If you can do it, do it. If not, get out!"

Old Ji was completely bewildered. He'd just wanted to see the renderings, so why was there such a fuss? Was his girlfriend here? He winked, hoping Chu Yue would give him a hint. Chu Yue kicked his leg, signaling she was indeed here.

"No, that person is the client. It's normal for him to discuss design requirements with you, the contractor. Why are you making a big deal out of it?" He also quickly got into the role.

"Normal behavior? Shake your head well before talking to me! If I don't treat you as a human being, you really won't behave like a human being, right?" Chu Yue said without forgetting to give him a blank look.

His girlfriend had heard the two quarreling a long time ago, so she quietly opened the door and asked softly, "Sister Yue, are you quarreling?"

When Ji Yan saw her, he pretended to be surprised and stood up and said, "Baoer, why are you here?" He turned back to Chu Yue and said, "I won't argue with you today. Hand over Rui Cheng's materials quickly!" After that, he pulled his girlfriend back to his office.

Chu Yue looked at his back, rolled her eyes, twisted her upper body, and made sarcastic noises in a sarcastic tone.

Sometimes, for people living at the bottom of society, being beautiful is also a trouble. For example, Chu Yue would receive some inexplicable gifts from the client from time to time at the front desk. Ji Yan's friends knew that there was such a beauty in his company, and they would come to the office from time to time.

She was so annoyed that when she returned to the office, she simply locked the door and pretended she was not there. She renovated the house bit by bit, and although it was still far from the renderings she had made, it was at least a model that was about 50% similar.

The firm's business grew rapidly, and Lao Jia's team hired several more marketing professionals. The design department also established Design Group 1 and Design Group 2. Design Group 1 handled government projects, while Design Group 2 handled corporate projects. Although Chu Yue was a designer, she had a design director overseeing her, and she was also a senior colleague of her boss, Ji Yan. Therefore, she mostly focused on her own projects, occasionally reporting to Design Director Jianing on business trips.

Ji Yan seemed quite free, but his social engagements were increasing, and he was becoming more and more greasy. When he returned home for dinner, Ji's mother asked him, "I always hear you mention Yueyue, but why don't you bring anyone home for dinner?"
