Chapter 349 The Cold War is Over
The next second, the bouquet of roses was in the trash can, and the petals fell.
I stared at Zhou Minghe in a daze, and a crack finally appeared on Zhou Minghe's calm face.
"I've only been ignoring you for two days, and you're already accepting roses from another man?" Zhou Minghe is a man who says whatever he thinks, and he's always like that, so I'm not surprised that he would take the initiative to talk about the cold war.
"Then why are you ignoring me? Just because I fired three aunts?" I was not angry, I just reasoned with him.
"You didn't fire the three aunts. You were angry that I pried into your privacy." Zhou Minghe's handsome face flushed red with anger, but for some reason, because he was handsome, when a blush gradually appeared on his jade-like white face, he seemed more humane.
"Do you think it's right to pry into other people's privacy without permission?" I raised my eyebrows slightly and asked unwillingly.
"We are boyfriend and girlfriend. Don't I have the right to know what you are doing?" Zhou Minghe's eyes turned red and he felt inexplicably wronged.
I took a deep breath and then smiled, "I never thought of prying into your privacy. This is the respect between people. If I really want to talk about it, how much do I know about your affairs?"
Zhou Minghe took a deep breath. Obviously, he couldn't continue talking to me once the topic came up.
He has many more secrets than I do.
Seeing his expression soften, I softened my voice, "We should face up to our relationship. Frankly speaking, we're not like boyfriend and girlfriend, but more like lovers."
"I never thought about it that way." Zhou Minghe glared at me angrily.
"I know, I know you don't think so, but I do." I closed my eyelids and stared at the floor. "This kind of relationship is not unbreakable."
"Jingjing." Zhou Minghe suddenly reached out and hugged me.
I buried my face deep in his arms, and at that moment, the ice and snow between us finally melted.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have had a cold war with you. I'm not suitable for it. These past two days, every time I saw you, I wanted to make peace with you, but I couldn't let go of my face and self-esteem as a man. I was expecting you to take the initiative to talk to me, but you didn't... You're always like this. You always give people the feeling that if you're cold to me for a few more days, you'll belong to someone else." Zhou Minghe also buried his face deep in my shoulder. He said this in a muffled voice, which made me want to laugh.
He felt wronged, innocent, and very insecure.
This may be my emotional hook. I hooked his emotions, and I... am fearless.
People who are favored are always fearless.
"Okay, someone outside saw us, let me go first." I gently pushed him away.
There was still redness at the corners of Zhou Minghe's eyes. He turned around and looked at the glass window. Wang Lele, the Finance Manager, was holding the documents with his fingers clenched.
She saw it, saw how Zhou Minghe snatched my flowers, argued with me, and finally took the initiative to hug me.
I also glanced at her through the glass window, and I always felt that Wang Lele was not someone who would give up easily.
Maybe she could be the spy sent by Zhou's mother in the company.
What Zhou Minghe said to me just now will be transmitted to Zhou's mother's ears in the next second.
Zhou's mother allowed me to return to Shanghai and work with Zhou Minghe simply because my relationship with Su Beicheng could help the company win projects.
Once the company is stable, Zhou's mother will kick me out of the company as soon as possible.
She would not let me occupy an important position in the company, nor would she let me monopolize all of Zhou Minghe's feelings.
Zhou Minghe said in a low voice: "Will you come home with me tonight?"
I immediately shook my head: "No, I'm on my period, it's not convenient."
Zhou Minghe: “…”
I turned around and sat back in my seat, looking up at him: "After I leave, I'll come find you, okay?"
Zhou Minghe looked at me reluctantly like a well-behaved little wolfhound, then opened the door and went out.
I leaned back in my office chair, my hands on the armrests, my legs crossed. Although I was sitting and looking at Zhou Minghe with a low profile, I somehow seemed to have found the handle that held the power. Although he was standing high up there, looking down at me, he had an obedient expression on his face.
Thinking of this, I pursed my lips and smiled. I heard that taming a man like a pet is the highest standard for a woman.
However, although I can do so, I won't.
I still believe that no matter who you are, you should respect each other. This is what a cultured, morally upright woman who can have a good ending should do.
At around six o'clock in the afternoon, the company had two very important social events. Zhou Minghe was responsible for one, and I was responsible for the other.
Before leaving, Zhou Minghe called me into his office.
He stood in front of his desk and said to me, "Here is all the information about Mr. Wu. Take a look."
I walked over, opened it, and saw that the company had conducted a detailed investigation into all matters concerning Mr. Wu.
"He is forty years old, has three ex-wives and six children, but I heard that he is still looking for prey everywhere. Jingjing, I feel that you are the type he likes." Zhou Minghe knew everything about Mr. Wu by heart. Presumably, he has also studied this man carefully.
I chuckled and said, "Don't worry, at most he'll just make a few dirty jokes, he won't really harass me."
Zhou Minghe looked at me in surprise: "I thought you didn't like men making dirty jokes in front of you."
I shrugged. "After working in the workplace for a long time, these are very common things. Besides, it's just a few harmless chats, so it's nothing."
"Jingjing, I don't like people talking to you about those disgusting things." Zhou Minghe showed an angry expression.
I nodded. "I don't like it either, but for the sake of the order, I'll just put it aside."
"Jingjing, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have let you see the disgusting side of human nature." Zhou Minghe suddenly apologized to me. He reached out and hugged me gently: "I should have let you live peacefully at home and not worry about money."
"No, you're wrong." I shook my head gently. "I don't want to be a canary kept at home. I hope you can give me wings and let me fly high. What you are doing now is what I want. I should thank you."
Zhou Minghe was stunned and gently pushed me away: "Really? I thought you didn't like this kind of life in the workplace."
"No, I like it." I looked up and met his gaze. "What I want is not life, but the ability to survive. Even if everyone abandons me, I can still firmly live the life I want."
"Jingjing, you always say such pessimistic things." Zhou Minghe kissed me on the forehead angrily: "Why can't you think of something positive?"
I pursed my lips and smiled: "No, I'm just being honest with you, you should be happy. I don't say this to everyone."
Zhou Minghe was finally coaxed into a good mood and nodded: "Jingjing, don't worry, a man in his forties is only good at talking."
I nodded. "I know. After the age of forty, both men and women are trying to prove one thing: men proving they're still okay, and women proving they're not old."
Zhou Minghe chuckled: "Then I have to take good care of my body. Don't wait until I'm forty, otherwise I won't be able to prove that I'm still okay."
I laughed too: "Okay, you prove that you are still capable, and I prove that I am not old."
"I think, even at forty, you must be very charming." Zhou Minghe placed his finger on my lips, lowered his head, and kissed me. "You know what? Your charm is the regret and sadness that often lingers in your eyes. It's gentle, firm, and powerful. People of all ages will appreciate it."
I was stunned. Was Zhou Minghe trying to see through me?
