Depressed wife runs with the ball

Chapter 51: It’s not like you haven’t eaten human blood steamed buns before

As the company's financial officer, Huang Yunfu was well aware of the company's current situation. However, after the incident with Xie Yanzhou, his daughter hadn't replied to his messages, and he couldn't get in touch with her, let alone schedule a meeting.

"Why don't we let Jin Yue contact him?" Her beloved son should be returning home by the end of December.

"You ask first. If that doesn't work, I'll go meet Zhou Xingzhi." Chu Jie'an thought that since he hadn't met Zhou Xingzhi yet, maybe he could bypass Zhou Jihuai and get in touch with Xinghui directly.

"I can't ask her. She has become too independent and refuses to reply to any message." Huang Yunfu couldn't bring herself to do this. If it weren't for Xie Yanzhou's incident, perhaps it would be easier to explain.

Chu Jie'an sighed, Zhou Jihuai's words still ringing in his ears: "It's not like you, Chu Jie'an, don't know how to eat human blood steamed buns."

It's a bit harsh to say this, but there are hundreds of people waiting for food in the company, and Chu Jinyue's study abroad will cost a lot of money. He can't just close the company and go back to his hometown to farm, right? Besides, just using this daughter to get in touch is not considered eating human blood buns.

Chu Yue had a very happy weekend because Zhou Xingzhi didn't go back to Cuiyuan with her. He had to go back to the company to work overtime to finish the things he had done in the past few days, and Chu Yue also had to finish the calligraphy work.

Her excuse was: "Calligraphy requires quietness the most. Writing in your office will be distracting."

Zhou Xingzhi listened to the excitement in her voice on the phone and then compared it to the empty office. How could the special assistant take a day off when the president was working overtime?

"Monday's schedule, last week's weekly report, and reports for several overseas projects, haven't you given me any of them yet?"

"You! Didn't you tell me not to let me get involved in those overseas projects?" She had just spread out the roll of rice paper.

"Jiang Tao hasn't taken over yet, so you still have to take responsibility. I'll pick you up." Zhou Xingzhi had just finished breakfast and thought that she should not have gotten up yet.

"No! I can make things at home." Since the work cannot be pushed out, just take a step back.

"Yueyue, we haven't seen each other for more than 8 hours." One night seemed very long to him.

"Hmm." More than 8 hours, just the time it takes to sleep, what's there to be proud of?

"I'll pick you up tonight." He originally wanted her to move to his place, but then he remembered what Teacher Yang had said and added, "Let's go eat."

"No, I have an appointment with the teacher tonight, you can eat by yourself." Chu Yue hasn't been with the teacher for several days. The review of the art festival needs to be closed, and today is the day the review ends.

"Yueyue, I'm your boyfriend."

"and then?"

"So, when you meet the teacher, you can bring your boyfriend along." Even if you're not used to treating him as your boyfriend in your heart, you have to get used to it in your actions.

It seemed like there was nothing wrong with what she said. Chu Yue was still hesitating, but Zhou Xingzhi took her as his tacit agreement over the phone and didn't give her a chance to refuse. He continued, "I'll pick you up tonight and have dinner together." Then he hung up.

Chu Yue sat on the stool in her study, in her pajamas, staring at the phone call screen with a blank look in her eyes. She was thinking about Zhao Mengfu's running script, which was so difficult.

When he saw the teacher in the evening, Zhou Xingzhi couldn't wait to shake hands with the teacher and reintroduce himself: "Teacher Yang, I'm not the organizer today, I'm Yueyue's boyfriend."

This made Chu Yue feel a little guilty. He opened his mouth and wanted to explain. The teacher didn't care and just said, "Eat first."

During the meal, Zhou Xingzhi had little say. He only occasionally talked about some remarkable works at the art festival, and he would say a few words along with Chu Yue. When the teacher talked about some people in the art association, he could also say something.

After dinner, the three of them walked together to send the teacher back to the hotel. Two people walked up to him, and Zhou Xingzhi followed behind.

The teacher warned Chu Yue: "Just follow your heart and don't force yourself."

She had heard her teacher say this many times, but when it came to actually putting it into practice, she still didn't understand what it meant.

"Teacher, I must have been careless, that's why I am alive today." Thinking of the past, she still felt a little sad.

"Don't talk nonsense! You are so arrogant when you paint, but you always belittle yourself when you talk about life." Teacher Yang always worried that one day she would receive the child's obituary, precisely because she was so pessimistic about life.

"No need to say anything. With the teacher here, I'm naturally going to be angry." Chu Yue quickly put on a smiling face.

Huang Yunfu couldn't contact Chu Yue, but she could see Ji Yan. Early Monday morning, she arrived at the door of Qucho's office, gift boxes in hand. Ji Yan had been scrambling to find connections for his father's affairs, and the office had lost another key member. He had become quite haggard over the past six months.

Seeing this plague god at the door of the office so early in the morning, I felt so unlucky. Fortunately, that junior sister was not in Qucho. "Auntie, Yueyue has indeed resigned from my company. It's not that I don't want her to see you, but I really can't help her." Ji Yan rejected her bluntly at the door of the office.

"Auntie knows. Auntie just hopes you can pass a message to her, saying that her brother, Jin Yue, will be back in a few days and asks her to go home so that the family can have a meal." Huang Yunfu shamelessly handed over the tea in her hand.

Ji Yan confiscated it, but just glanced at her unhappily, went into the office, and sent a WeChat message to Chu Yue.

It was early Monday morning, and Xinghui was busy, leaving Chu Yue no time to check her phone. She had to go through the OA process for various documents from the CEO's office, get approval from the various directors, and negotiate various issues raised by various departments. She was in a meeting with Zhou Xingzhi, taking notes. In short, even with her phone in hand, she didn't see the message.

Jiang Tao had already left work, but Chu Yue still had to work overtime with Zhou Xingzhi. It was during dinner that he noticed the Sanxingdui cultural and creative product on the table.

I thought it was a gift from Chu Yue, so I took a closer look. It was just an ornament, and everyone was praising it. When did her taste become linked to money?

"The teacher is going back to school tomorrow. Can I go and see him off?" Chu Yue sat on the guest sofa, placed the food and chopsticks in place, and sat down to eat.

"You still have a lot of work to do tomorrow." Zhou Xingzhi was thinking about whether to go to Cuiyuan tonight or take her back to his place.

Come to think of it, we can't always give her this kind of exception.

He placed the ornament on the coffee table next to the guest sofa and sat down to eat with him.

"This ornament is quite cute," she said politely.

"How about taking it back to Cuiyuan and using it as a paperweight for you?"

It seems that every time she writes calligraphy, she uses a book to press down a corner of it.

"It's not suitable, is it? This was given to you by someone."

"Other people?" Wasn't it her who gave it to him?

"Well, a pretty girl. She always dresses up when she comes to the president's office. Isn't there any note or business card attached to it?" She leaned over to look at the ornament.

"So... this morning coffee wasn't given by you?" He paused with his chopsticks. Another girl gave him something, and she wasn't jealous at all?

Chu Yue didn't notice his abnormality at all and just found it funny. He had come back from business trips before and talked about how many times he was late and how many times he arrived at work on time.

"Why would I come so early? It's already a rare opportunity to get to work on time every day."

He continued to concentrate on eating. The ornament now looked not cute at all.

Chu Yue finally saw the WeChat message, and her face darkened. She replied to Ji Yan: "Don't worry about her."

"The closing ceremony of the Youth Art Festival is coming soon. Do you want to go and see it?" Zhou Xingzhi originally wanted her to attend the closing ceremony as his female companion, but he felt that she didn't like this kind of hustle and bustle.

"I don't want to." She was still wondering what Huang Yunfu wanted to do with her.

"If you don't want to go, then don't go. Just go home and have dinner with your parents." He didn't really want to attend either.

"Zhou Xingzhi, our relationship hasn't reached that level." She felt that being together all the time was not a good thing.

"They knew about our relationship and approved of our relationship."

"These are two different things. With your status, I have my own pressures."

She felt that liking someone and loving them were always different. If their relationship wasn't long-lasting, there was no need to meet their parents.
