Exclusive Pampered Wife: My Wife Came to My Door
Chapter 44 The Silly Designer
Yan Zuozuo was on the verge of tears and quickly pushed Chi Moqing away. She had already lost enough in front of Chi Moqing's parents, but she hadn't expected to be caught red-handed by her mother today. She might as well find a hole and bury herself.
Compared to Yan Zuozuo's embarrassment, Chi Moqing was much calmer. He smiled and looked at Yan's mother, asking, "Mom, what's the matter?"
Mother Yan quickly said, "It's alright, it's alright, take your time. I'm not hungry, I'm not in a hurry to eat, no rush." After saying that, she quickly left, making sure to close the door before she left.
Hearing her mother's words, Yan Zuozuo wanted nothing more than to strangle Chi Moqing. Ugh, this was so embarrassing! She grabbed a tomato to wash, but then heard Chi Moqing's teasing voice, "Mrs. Chi, are you trying to see who's redder than a tomato?"
Yan Zuozuo gritted her teeth and glared at him fiercely.
Chi Moqing, sensing her silent resentment, immediately became serious. "I'll cook, I promise I'll take it very seriously."
Yan Zuozuo was completely defeated. She silently gave up her seat and stood aside like a wronged wife, waiting for her master to give orders, whether she should serve tea and water or just stand by and do nothing.
Seeing the intimate scene between Yan Zuozuo and Chi Moqing, Yan's mother wore a gratified smile. Although she was very dissatisfied with Yan Zuozuo's whirlwind marriage, it seemed that it was a pretty good decision.
Jingle Bell!
The phone rang. Yan's mother glanced at the caller ID and quickly answered, "Mr. Mu, what's the matter?"
"My company is holding an anniversary celebration, and I'd like to order a few bouquets. Is now a convenient time?"
Mu Tianyang was a long-time and major client of Yan Mama. His wife died years ago, and he has raised his daughter alone all these years, which has not been easy for him.
“That’s convenient, but I’m not home. I’ll have the part-time worker deliver it to you. Are you in a hurry?” Yan’s mother asked.
"Going to your daughter's again? You're so lucky." Mu Tianyang said happily. "No rush this time, just deliver it the day after tomorrow morning. I'm letting you know in advance so you won't be caught off guard."
"Okay, okay, I've got it. Thank you so much, Mr. Mu, for taking such good care of my business these past few years."
"Not at all, you're too kind. In that case, I won't disturb your reunion with your daughter any longer. See you another day."
"Okay, goodbye Mr. Mu."
Yan Zuozuo came out of the kitchen carrying dishes and saw that her mother had just hung up the phone. She casually asked, "Mom, who was that?"
"A regular customer called to order flower baskets." Yan's mother helped bring out the dishes.
"Oh." Yan Zuozuo didn't ask any further questions.
Around 9:30, Yan's mother said she was sleepy and went back to her room. Yan Zuozuo put away the food and supplies that her mother had brought them into the kitchen before returning to her bedroom.
"Are you tired?" Chi Moqing asked her to sit on the bed and give him a massage. Yan Zuozuo smiled and said, "It's so good to have you."
However, her smile didn't last long, and she looked worried again.
Chi Moqing raised an eyebrow and pinched her head, knowing that she was worried about Yan's mother's unusual behavior today, so he said, "Mom will handle whatever happens herself. If it really doesn't work, then we children can get involved."
Having spent these days with Chi Moqing, Yan Zuozuo knew how wise he was, so she wasn't surprised that he could guess it. She just frowned and told him about what happened that day.
“He Cangyuan has never been a topic that my mother and I can’t talk about, but today it’s strange. I feel like my mother is quite afraid of him. To be honest, I’m worried that He Cangyuan might be threatening my mother.”
Chi Moqing massaged her back and said, "Don't worry, I'll have someone check it out later."
Yan Zuozuo nodded: "You saw it too, my mom was restless all night, she's never been like this before."
"I know, I'll find out." Chi Moqing hugged her and let her lean against him. "If you keep frowning, you'll get wrinkles. Be good, smile."
Yan Zuozuo forced a smile. Too many things had happened recently, and she felt overwhelmed.
The next day, Yan Zuozuo went to work and carefully reviewed the materials the design director had given her the day before. Having never handled such a significant case before, she studied them with exceptional focus. But the more diligently she worked on them, the more clueless she felt about where to begin.
She sighed irritably and got up to walk towards the break room. She overheard everyone talking about Cai Keren and the CEO again, mostly cursing the other woman to die. She couldn't help but think of Fu Zixin. Should she talk to her? But even if she did, what could she talk about? Given Fu Zixin's current state of being deeply in love, she might not listen to her. But if she didn't talk to her, she worried that Fu Zixin would be hurt in the future, which was the last thing she wanted.
She pretended not to hear the murmurs in the break room, got her water, and headed outside. Just then, she saw the director's assistant looking for her, saying that the design director wanted her to get ready and go out in a bit.
Yan Zuozuo nodded, and about half an hour later, the design director told her about potential future partners.
Lu's Design is the leading company in S City, and ranks among the top in the country. The president of Lu's Design is Lu Zhitu, whose business acumen is rumored to rival that of Chi Moqing. The reason Lu's Design has been able to maintain its dominant position in S City is rumored to be inextricably linked to their chief designer, Andre.
André's name is renowned throughout the country, but he is very low-key and has almost never appeared in the media. Apart from close friends, almost no one has ever seen this design genius.
Legendary and mysterious, Andrei has always been Yan Zuozuo's idol, and she really hopes to meet him.
Following behind the design director, Yan Zuozuo was very excited. However, this excitement didn't last long, and it vanished as she bumped into Cai Keren.
Cai Keren had just joined the company when she heard that the design director had assigned a major project to Yan Zuozuo, and naturally she harbored resentment. Now, seeing Yan Zuozuo instead of her by the design director's side, her anger flared even more.
She glared fiercely at Yan Zuozuo and gritted her teeth, saying, "You just wait!"
Yan Zuozuo couldn't help but shiver. If she could, she wouldn't want to participate in this kind of public display at all; leaving it to Cai Keren would have been much easier. However, she knew very well that the design director didn't like Cai Keren, and that she was only brought along because the CEO had given orders. But now things were different.
Firstly, the rumors surrounding Cai Keren and the CEO have spread far and wide, and the CEO no longer dares to protect her. Secondly, Yan Zuozuo's status has changed, and the design director is cleverly trying to leverage his identity to gain greater cooperation opportunities.
Yan Zuozuo couldn't help but sigh. That's how society is. Those without power or influence are looked down upon; once you gain power, countless people rush to your side to fawn over you.
"Ignore her, let's go," the design director said, glancing at Yan Zuozuo.
Yan Zuozuo smiled and got into the car with him.
Strictly speaking, her achievement this time was not very significant. She's just a designer and doesn't understand negotiation or collaboration. In short, she's just a pretty face.
The meeting lasted for more than two hours, ending close to midnight. The design director invited Lu Zhitu of the Lu family to dinner. Lu Zhitu glanced at Yan Zuozuo, hesitated for a moment, and then agreed.
With this nod, the design director understood that their cooperation with the Lu family was at least 70-80% certain. However, Yan Zuozuo, who knew nothing about this, remained completely silent.
In the elevator, Lu Zhitu asked, "I heard that President Chi was hospitalized a while ago. Is he feeling better now?"
Yan Zuozuo nodded and smiled: "It's an old problem, caused by overindulging in alcohol. I'm sorry to trouble President Lu."
Lu Zhitu nodded: "It's good that you're alright."
As soon as they stepped out of the elevator, they saw a handsome, well-dressed man with a head of striking, colorful hair walking towards them. He had an arrogant expression and seemed to have a free and unrestrained air about him.
Seeing Lu Zhitu, he nodded and smiled, "So many people, what's going on?"
Lu Zhitu glanced at him, a slight smile playing on his lips. "You've come at the right time. We're going to eat, let's go together."
The man politely declined, saying, "I'm just going upstairs to get something; I'll skip the meal." He then rushed into the elevator, but the moment the doors closed, he rushed out again, standing in front of Yan Zuozuo, looking her up and down. After a while, he suddenly grinned, "Girl, haven't we met somewhere before?"
Yan Zuozuo frowned and subconsciously took two steps back. "Sir, I am already married. I am no longer a young woman."
The man's smile deepened, and he extended his hand, saying, "Andrei, please guide me."
Yan Zuozuo was stunned, her mouth agape in shock. He was the mysterious and legendary designer, Andre?
So young!
She reached out and shook his hand, momentarily stunned. "Yan Zuozuo."
The man chuckled, looking at her with an ambiguous expression, then turned to Lu Zhitu, "I suddenly remembered that the things might not be in the office. I happen to be hungry right now, so why don't we go eat together?"
Everyone was stunned. As expected of a genius designer, they were all so...unique.
Since the hotel was nearby, the group strolled over. Lu Zhitu and the design director walked in front, followed by the others. Andre followed closely behind Yan Zuozuo, saying, "Girl, think carefully, we really have met before, but where exactly? Think quickly."
Yan Zuozuo looked at him strangely. She really liked his design style, but she didn't like a man with such a goofy personality at all. She shook her head, "Sorry, I don't remember."
Few women could reject him so directly and coldly in the face of his stunningly handsome face. Andrei became even more interested. "Don't be like this. Do you suspect that I have some ulterior motive?"
Yan Zuozuo turned her head, looked at him seriously, and then nodded solemnly. "That's exactly what I think. Besides, I'm already married, and I don't want a strange man to fawn over me."
Indeed, idols can only live in imagination; in reality, that's destruction.
But there are always some people who are just like that, the more they reject someone, the more they want to conquer them, just like Andrei right now. Hearing Yan Zuozuo's rejection, he didn't back down, but instead laughed loudly, "You have personality, I like it."
"I'm sorry, I don't like you at all." Yan Zuozuo looked at him coldly. "If you want to prove your worth by hunting for women, then I may not be a good prey. Mr. Andrei, please have some self-respect."
Interesting, really interesting.
Although Andrei couldn't quite recall where he'd seen this woman before, he swore that with his photographic memory, he was certain he'd seen her before. It was his loss that he hadn't had a chance to talk to her earlier; he wasn't about to miss out on this interesting opportunity.
