I saw her and walked quickly to the door. Wang Su burst into tears before she said a word. She came up to me, hugged me, and cried on my shoulder.

I could tell she must have been wronged, so I quickly comforted her: "Wang Su, what's wrong with you? Don't cry first, is there something wrong?"

Wang Su then pulled off her mask to show me. Half of her face was swollen, and the corners of her mouth were broken. I quickly asked, "Who hit you? Why were they so cruel?"

Wang Su looked at me with despair and said, "It was his ex-wife who hired someone to beat me up. I'm afraid we can't be together anymore. His ex-wife even said that she would beat me up every time she sees me. Jingjing, since I introduced you to Sister Wang, could you please help me this time?"

I nodded. I had to help her no matter what.

"How do you want me to help you? Do you need money now?" I asked in a low voice.

Wang Su shook his head: "I don't want money, I want a job that can keep me safe."

"How about you come work for me?" I immediately pointed to the store behind me and said, "This is a joint venture between me and Sister Wang. We are all acquaintances."

Wang Su looked at me in surprise: "Jingjing, where did you get so much money to invest in this store?"

I told him the truth: "Actually, it was my boyfriend who helped me invest. I don't have the money, but the profits are mine."

Wang Su looked at me with envy, and then she made an unreasonable request: "Jingjing, can you lend me your boyfriend to help me support him?"

I:"……"

Seeing that I didn't agree, Wang Su started crying again. "That bastard cheated me. Li Shu has been sentenced. He will be in prison for six years. I didn't help him. I couldn't save him. Now I can't even protect myself. Jingjing, please, I don't want to leave this city. My house is here, and I can't sell it for a while."

Faced with Wang Su's earnest request, I had no choice but to agree to her.

In the evening, Zhou Ci came to pick me up from get off work. He looked as if nothing had happened. I guess the incident at his hotel has been resolved.

"Zhou Ci, I want to invite you to dinner tonight. There is something I want to ask you for help with." I took his arm and spoke softly.

Zhou Ci kissed me directly and pretended to be angry: "Do you treat me as an outsider? Do you need to beg for help? Tell me, what's the matter?"

I had no choice but to tell him about Wang Su. Zhou Ci was stunned at first, then he said, "If she has nowhere to go, let her work as a receptionist in my hotel. As long as she works there, I will definitely take care of her affairs."

I was stunned. This method seemed quite reliable. "Really? She has a facial injury now. Once her facial injury heals, she will go back to work."

"Well, it's up to you to decide on this matter." Zhou Ci acted like a good and obedient husband.

I pinched his arm cautiously and asked, "Do you still remember my friend? The one we had barbecue with that day?"

Zhou Ci shook his head: "I don't have any impression. That night, I was staring at you the whole time."

I immediately pinched his arm hard: "You clearly remember what he looks like, and you still dare to lie to me."

Zhou Ci was so hurt by my pinch that he quickly hugged me and said, "Jealous? That's good. I finally see you jealous of me."

I snuggled in his arms, listening to his smug tone, and sighed softly, "There's nothing I can do about it. Women are just petty and jealous."

"This also proves that I have a place in your heart." Zhou Ci was happy.

We went home together, and Zhou Ci asked his younger brother to bring us dinner. I had already taken the time to decorate his house. The spacious entrance balcony was also filled with flower pots. At this moment, the flowers were blooming beautifully, and there was the sound of flowing water beside, with many lively little fish in it.

"You bought so much?" I walked over to take a look. Zhou Ci said awkwardly, "I'm just afraid you'll be angry."

Of course I won't be angry with him, at least, he will make up for it immediately.

"Jingjing, you are making my home more and more like a home." As soon as I entered the living room, a strong body came up behind me, and Zhou Ci hugged me from behind.

I pretended to be gentle, turned around, and lay in his arms: "I just want to help you do something, but I'm afraid of doing too much, and I'm afraid it won't be good enough."

Zhou Ci chuckled softly and hugged me directly, supporting my legs with his strong arms, and my shadow was all in his eyes.

"No matter how much it is, as long as you are willing to come back to this home with me, it is enough for me." Zhou Ci kissed me gently.

I felt guilty and didn't dare to avoid him. When I thought about the kiss Zhou Minghe had given me in the afternoon, I felt guilty and uneasy.

Am I born with Zhou Ci's aesthetic sense? I heard that when a man likes a woman, that woman only needs to stay quietly by his side to bring him emotional value.

Now, Zhou Ci treats me as if I don’t need to do anything. As long as he sees me, he becomes very gentle.

That night, Zhou Ci did his best to love me, and I took the opportunity to tell him about his mother coming to see me. Zhou Ci just smiled and said that his mother was actually quite bored, and asked me to chat with her more when I was free in the future to relieve her boredom.

With his words, it will be easier for me to get along with Zhou's mother in the future.

The next day at noon, I personally brought Wang Su to Zhou Ci's office.

Zhou Ci has a beautiful building next to the river. His office is on the sixth floor. This is my first time here.

When I arrived, everyone who knew me was very polite to me. Zhou Ci's younger brother even called me sister-in-law, which made me feel embarrassed.

Wang Su cast an envious look at me: "Jingjing, I didn't expect that you are quite good at dealing with men."

I smiled awkwardly: "They are just too polite. Zhou Ci and I have only been dating for a short time. I can't take on the role of sister-in-law."

"Jingjing, you're here." Zhou Ci walked out from behind a door. Although he owned a company, his dress was not as formal as his boss's, but rather casual.

Today, he is wearing a sports suit, looking clean and refreshing, with the handsome charm of an adult man.

"She is my friend, Wang Su." I introduced her in a low voice.

"Hello, Mr. Zhou. Thank you very much for taking me in." Wang Su was a generous person, and she said politely.

Zhou Ci raised his finger and said, "I've already arranged a job for you. The Crown Hotel, which is about a kilometer away, is short of a receptionist. You can talk to the HR department about the salary and other things."

A girl who looked like an assistant led Wang Su to the Human Resources Department.

There was no one around, Zhou Ci took my hand and walked into his office.

His office, like his home, was elegantly decorated, but it was bare except for the necessary items.

"Jingjing, this is my office. What do you think of it? Do you want to help me decorate it?" Zhou Ci took a few steps back childishly, opened his arms, and asked me gently.

I looked around, then shook my head. "An office isn't like home; it needs something to make it feel warm. You're fine like this, clean and tidy."

Zhou Ci shrugged his shoulders, walked over, and involuntarily hugged my waist tightly: "I thought you had another idea."

I was at a loss for words: "Do I look like a housekeeper? I love to meddle in other people's affairs?"

Zhou Ci was also amused by me. He looked at me with burning eyes and said, "I just need someone who is willing to take care of me. If that person is you, I am willing to be controlled by you."

"No." I turned and walked to the French window, facing the rolling river outside the window: "I just take care of myself, don't worry about others."

Zhou Ci stood beside me dejectedly: "If you don't care about me, then you don't care."

I pursed my lips and smiled, "I do care, but caring for someone isn't just about saying it, nor is controlling it through action. I'm afraid you'll get annoyed and tired of it. It's better for you to be you and I to be me. As long as we're still attracted to each other, there's no need to control us."

Zhou Ci looked at me in surprise. The next second, he said forcefully and domineeringly, "I don't know how you, at such a young age, can come up with so many profound life lessons."

"I just figured it out by reading a few more pages of the book. I'll ask you to take care of my friend from now on." I said to him with a gentle smile.

Zhou Ci nodded and said righteously, "Don't worry, she's safe with me."

I am actually still a little worried, because I know that Wang Su and I are the same kind of people. We will do anything for money and will not care about our relatives.

The reason why Wang Su and I became friends was because we had common characteristics.

I looked at Zhou Ci and threw all my words of ignoring him behind my head. Instead, I reached out my hand domineeringly and gently patted his collar: "I asked you to take care of her, but you can't take care of her in bed."

Zhou Ci: “…”
