[Full-time Zhou Ye] Shenghua

After the lecture, Zhou Zekai asked Du Ming to take care of other things, and stayed behind to see Ye Xiu off.The great god, who can only be seen once in all samsara, was surrounded by enthusiastic audiences on stage, and his witty remarks made the circle laugh from time to time.He waited patiently on the spot for a while, and only took a few steps to the podium when it looked like the show was really over.

Seeing him coming, a few courageous people whistled and shouted, "Shen Ye, why don't you think about our President Zhou?"

Those present are all people who are running around, even if they haven't been in the romantic field, they have been immersed in the big dye vat for many years, and they have already passed the age where people will be flushed when they are teased casually.Ye Xiu stood on the podium, smiled generously and looked over, and did not avoid the gaze of the other party: "Tsk, how can you say this in front of the right owner? Do you want a year-end bonus?"

Zhou Zekai looked back at him, also smiled, ignoring the pretentious begging for mercy around him, and said softly, "It should be deducted."

When the two were going out, they happened to meet Jiang Botao coming back from work outside.Previously, Zhou Zekai searched hard for a diagnostic list but failed. He once mentioned his pheromone problem to him. As an old friend and full-time secretary for many years, Jiang Botao made a list of Zhou Zekai's strange behaviors since he was in the police station. .As the only "insider", when he sees Ye Xiu now, he feels that he has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and every second he can't wait to use his life to create an assist: "Oh, God Ye, long time no see! Are you in such a hurry to go back? I heard that Xing Xin is also playing in Hongguan, why haven't we met before? When will our two families have an appointment? Your skills are well-known in the circle, and it also gives us the opportunity to experience the demeanor of the great master!"

Ye Xiu was arguing with Zhou Zekai about who should get the computer bag. When he heard this, he waved his hands again and again: "I'll let it go, old people, I can't take it anymore! They all make reservations at staggered peak hours, usually Thursday afternoon or evening. If you're free Jo, no problem!"

Jiang Botao laughed and said Ye Shen, you are so humorous. Zhou Zekai picked up the bag with one hand, and immediately took out his mobile phone with the other hand and started sending messages to the venue to set the venue. , Then start to infiltrate in a planned and step-by-step manner from the people around you.

It wasn't until the night that Zhou Zekai brought a large team to the arena that he realized that life was full of surprises: there were not many people in the arena, but Xingxin's arena happened to be next to them, and Ye Xiu was waiting by the side with a lollipop in his mouth— —Although the whole person exudes a listless and unwilling aura.A female Beta with a high ponytail was standing next to him and talking. Zhou Zekai had been able to recite the information on Xingxin's official website since he took a fancy to Ye Xiu, so he naturally recognized that this person was Xingxin's managing partner Chen Guo.He scanned the other people present. On the 1st court, the second-year lawyers Tang Rou and Bao Rongxing were playing lively, and on the 2nd court were the compensation partners Wei Chen and Fang Rui, who had just left Excellent Era. Su Mucheng was sitting behind Ye Xiu, holding a glass of orange juice and smiling while watching the play.

Jiang Botao walked over directly to say hello: "Oh, coincidence, God Ye and you are here too! Choosing a date is worse than bumping into the sun, why don't we have a friendly match today?"

Ye Xiu didn't expect them to be so active, so he nodded and glanced at Zhou Zekai in surprise. Two minutes later, Jiang Botao and Chen Guo finished communicating, and they stood in the middle of the venue and clapped their hands: "Good afternoon everyone from Xingxin, the venue is so big, it's fate to meet each other, why don't we give us a chance to compete in Samsara today? Compete? The first men's doubles match, let's see how we win?"

On Samsara's side, Jiang Botao and Zhou Zekai had already set the tempo.On Xingxin's side, Wei Chen rolled his eyes, hooked Bao Rongxing's neck and left the battle circle first: "Baozi and I will go buy some drinks first, let's take the lead, of course we have to hand over the top card!"

Everyone in Xingxin had relatively low qualifications, and Chen Guo was only in charge of management. Strictly speaking, only Ye Xiu and Su Mucheng from Excellent Era, and Fang Rui from Whistling were worthy of the title of "top card".Hearing this, Fang Rui let out a long sigh, picked up the racket and said in deep pain, "Lao Ye, it's all up to you, the frontcourt is all up to you!"

Ye Xiu was helplessly pushed onto the field, and he looked unlovable with the candy in his mouth: "It's really going downhill, and you have to rely on the elderly to support the field!"

Chen Da's partner showed 12 points of disgust for the mental outlook of his two-headed cards: "Promise! If you win, you will get a red envelope at the end of the year, and if you lose, you two will get it back!"

The four decided to choose sides and serve, and took their positions on the field.Jiang Botao served first. He and Zhou Zekai were old partners. The two stood up front and back, one on the left and one on the right. According to the usual practice, he was responsible for blocking the net, and Zhou Zekai was responsible for pressing down from the backcourt.Over there, Ye Xiu and Fang Rui seemed to be playing doubles for the first time. They turned around and discussed for a long time, and finally they both stood near the center line, with Ye Xiu in front and Fang Rui behind.Jiang Botao's style of play was steady, and he sent a small ball to test the water first. Ye Xiu stood where he was, and with a flick of his wrist, he pushed it back directly.Probably due to the lack of strength in the first hand, the ball flew limply to the front of the net and bounced on the net belt for a while, then trembled over the "big mountain" and landed vertically while holding the breath of the audience.

After all, they are all non-professional players. It was too unlucky to fight in front of the net at the beginning of the game. Jiang Botao stepped forward and simply picked the ball to the opposite backcourt: He guessed that Fang Rui had been waiting for a long time, so he caught a ball now Definitely press down—but Zhou Zekai is tall and has long legs and quick reflexes, so it shouldn't be a problem to pick it up.Who would have guessed that Fang Rui was going in a wretched way of thunder and rain, grinning his teeth and pretending to be a heavy dunk when he saw the ball coming, but he lost his strength at the moment of hitting the ball, and in a blink of an eye he hit the net again in the middle.Ye Xiu took a few leisurely steps to the side, made up his position, and said with a loud smile, "Of course you can't give the ball to Xiao Zhou! Everyone be gentle, it's hard work!"

Jiang Botao was sweating from saving the ball, and he couldn't help but slander you for letting me run back and forth in front of the net alone.It just so happened that Fang Rui returned the ball a little high, so he took advantage of the opportunity and threw himself into the backcourt.This shot accelerated so fast that Fang Rui had no time to think, so he subconsciously chose Gao Yuan.After the ball flew over the net, its momentum weakened, and it became a mermaid half court. Jiang Botao heard the sound of sneakers rubbing against the ground behind him, and gave up a position without turning around. Sure enough, a smear of white came from him in the next second Skimming sideways and heading straight for Fang Rui, it was a well-timed smash.

Fang Rui was hunted down by the two together, and he struggled to retrieve the ball. He looked up and saw Ye Xiu was still paddling in the front court, so he could only call Lao Ye Lao Ye to hurry up while running.Ye Xiu grinned and replied, Fang Butler, why was he panicked, he deftly intercepted Jiang Botao's return ball, and repeated his old trick to put it in front of the net.But this time, he was caught early by Zhou Zekai. After the smash, Zhou Zekai quickly went online to switch defenses with Jiang Botao. He flipped his wrist, and with a light rub, the ball followed the original path and returned to Ye Xiu's side.Both of them have unyielding characters, and immediately launched a fierce competition in front of the net. The eyes of both sides were tightly glued to the white shuttlecock across a net, and the rotation speed was so fast that they could only swing by instinct.Sometimes the ball has fallen, and people's eyes have not turned away, and they can only hit straight in the air.

Even after many years, it was still hard for Ye Xiu to forget the young face he saw at this moment.The strenuous exercise made Zhou Zekai sweat a lot, and Alpha opened his mouth slightly to pant while running, sweat gradually rolled down his temples, showing another kind of handsomeness that was more eye-catching.But what attracted his gaze even more was the other party's eyes full of urgency—he saw light, fire, and his own reflection in these dark eyes.

Labels such as "shy", "shy", and "not good at speaking" that had been attached to the young man before fell off one by one. After a few more shots, the two of them staggered again before fully reacting.

Mistake, he thought, unexpectedly meeting the same kind.

After a few back and forth, it was Ye Xiu who saw the timing first, and when the ball climbed to the highest point, he suddenly exerted his strength, and took the risk of jumping into the gap between Zhou Jiang and the two of them.The quality of Zhou Zekai's return was good, and it was easy to get caught or even touch the net in such a cull, but Ye Xiuyi was so bold that even the slant forward went with confidence - he expected the two to think that he would not dare to cull and neglect defense, so he Immediately grabbed the first point of the opening.

Du Ming sat on the referee chair and sang "1-0" loudly.Ye Xiu held the attitude of the deputy senior, and smiled meaningfully at Zhou Zekai across the net: "Xiao Zhou, you are still a little tender."

It was Ye Xiu's turn to serve the second ball.After changing zones, Ye Xiu and Zhou Zekai formally faced each other. He nodded at the latter, raised his racket with his right hand, and slowly let go of his left hand. It seemed that he also wanted to serve a steady net shot.However, when the ball made contact with the racket, there was a solid sound that could be heard—this was actually a backcourt ball that was approaching the bottom line behind Zhou Zekai.At this time, it was too late for Zhou Zekai to retreat to the bottom line, so he could only take two quick steps back, leaning up and returning a somewhat reluctant high ball.On the opposite side, Fang Rui had long been waiting in the backcourt with his racket in hand. When he saw the high ball flying towards him, he pressed down in the middle without saying a word.

Samsara's spectators saw Xingxin go straight to the middle of their own team again and again, sweating coldly, and couldn't help feeling that it was fortunate that Zhou Jiang and his two were standing on the field.After all, Jiang Botao grew up with Zhou Zekai, and he can tell whether the next shot is going left or right just by making eye contact.Hearing the panting sounds coming closer behind him, he consciously moved two steps to the side to make room for Zhou Zekai.Zhou Zekai immediately stepped forward, changing the formation on the court into a parallel position on the left and right. Without stopping for a moment, he backhanded the ball to the middle of Ye Fang.

After all, the duo of Xingxin set up a stage to sing temporarily, Fang Rui subconsciously stepped forward to block, Ye Xiu had to say "Hey", and then stabilized the front and rear formations.Probably because the last point wore out all his patience in front of the net. When Ye Xiu returned the ball, he simply changed the line and didn't engage in any tactics.After the ball changed direction, it rushed straight to Jiang Botao, showing a faint momentum of chasing him.With a "tsk", Zhou Zekai changed the formation into front and rear positions, and simply fought with Ye Xiu along an invisible straight line.

Jiang Botao and Fang Rui waited by the side with their rackets in hand, ready for the two of them who were in the midst of a fierce battle to suddenly give them the ball—this is a routine in doubles, after all, group confrontation mainly relies on surprise and tacit understanding.But this time seems to be a bit unusual: Whenever Ye Xiu just shows a hint of intention to pass the ball towards Jiang Botao, Zhou Zekai's return will be faster, more dangerous, and more chasing. With one shot, the ball was almost nailed to the heart of the person.Well, a doubles match turned into a one-on-one match, both sides were under a lot of pressure. In the end, Zhou Zekai couldn't bear it and made the first mistake-he missed a ball and returned too high. Zhou Zekai was a few steps away on the sideline of the left half of the field.

The audience on the sidelines watched with bated breath for such a long round-trip, seeing that it finally landed, they couldn't help but all heaved a sigh of relief.Du Ming put "2-0" to his mouth and waited to open his mouth, but saw Zhou Zekai leaping towards the ball with a big stride, trying to lose his center of gravity and returning the ball back to the net - it was a diving save !The whole audience gasped, but Ye Xiu on the opposite side was completely immersed in the game. Seeing the ball fly back, his face was calm, he ran a few steps to adjust his position, and continued to smash; Zhou Zekai quickly bounced off the ground , Continue to save the ball.The two soon fell into a new round of stalemate, but the latter was in a passive position after all, and was pushed to the bottom line by Ye Xiu without knowing it.For the last ball, Ye Xiu jumped up and smashed again, the ball was directly on the left sideline, this time Zhou Zekai finally couldn't save it.

Wei Chen, who came back with a sack of drinks with Baozi, was in the last few back and forth. When the ball really hit the ground, he whistled softly. He was about to lament with the juniors beside him that Jiang was still hot, but he sat on the side Tang Rou, who was the lineman, raised her hand first: "Out!"

"1-1!"

——This ball turned out to be Ye Xiu dunking out of the baseline.

Zhou Zekai pursed his lips and smiled smugly.Ye Xiu set up the net and sneaked into their field, marveling at the half-crippled shuttlecock lying near the bottom line: "No way, you're good?"

The young man looked at him with a smile on his face and silently mouthed: "It's just the beginning."

After the friendly match, the two teams made an appointment for supper, and they scattered and went home until late at night.Zhou Zekai got drunk and couldn't drive, so Jiang Botao had to take the keys and send him home.Du Ming, who also drank several bottles of beer, happened to drop by, and the three of them sat in a car.

Zhou Zekai didn't drink much tonight, but he felt a little uncomfortable from the wind when he went out just now, so he rested alone in the back row.Du Ming really drank too much. Although he is not nervous when he sees these two mountains on weekdays, he is definitely not too talkative, but now he has completely opened up the conversation: "Oh, I said that today's men's doubles is really a pity. I really can't see how powerful Ye Shen is! The last 20-21 was so tense, Fang Rui was a little timid in the fight, but he was in a brave state, scoring three points in a row by himself! And Tang Rou from Xingxin was also the same. In the face of the immediate boss, the killing is really courageous!"

Jiang Botao had a headache when he thought of the last scene where Ye Xiu chased him and smashed him. Seeing that Zhou Zekai in the back row didn't respond, he said after thinking about it: "A great master is a great master! But let me tell you, it's really necessary to play three rounds seriously. In the two-win system, maybe we can win, after all, the gap is really small."

Zhou Zekai, who was closing his eyes and resting his mind, heard this, but couldn't sit still: "Xingxin is an AO, physical strength is not fair."

Du Ming in the passenger seat suddenly realized: "That's right! Although Fang Rui is an A, God Ye is an O! Ah, my admiration for God Ye is like the surging river——wait, wait, Zhou Boss, why are you helping God Ye and the others to talk like this? And the glass of wine tonight is the same, isn’t that my respect to God Ye, how come you drank it after a long time?”

Zhou Zekai paused, and replied, "He can't drink."

"God Ye is the one who should be happy if he can't drink—"

"Cough, cough!" Jiang Botao couldn't take it anymore, rolled down half of Du Ming's car window, and said, "You did drink a little too much tonight, sober up."

"Hey, I'm asking Mr. Zhou—"

Jiang Botao rolled down the remaining half of the window, and turned on the refrigerator in front of Du Ming by the way: "Understood! Do you understand!"

Du Ming was staggered by the cold wind blowing in. He was so cold that he was shivering. Finally, the two merchants came back into the cage: "Huh?——Is it not? What do I mean? Is that what it means?"

Now it was Zhou Zekai's turn to cough lightly in the back seat: "It's cold, close the window."

The second day was Friday, Zhou Zekai and Ye Qiu met at a private restaurant.The address was provided by Ye Qiu. In a high-end residential area in the suburbs, it is impossible to drive in without prior contact.Zhou Zekai deliberately arrived half an hour earlier, and when he got out of the car, he was about to check the location again, when he suddenly heard the Audi next to him honking its horn briefly.

The car window rolled down slowly, revealing a familiar yet unfamiliar face.

It's Ye Qiu.

Ye's successor put his hand on the window sill, nodded at him, and showed a meaningful smile: "It seems that Mr. Zhou is very concerned about today's meal."

Zhou Zekai nodded slightly, and cut to the chase: "I'm very concerned about Ye Xiu's affairs."

The two took the elevator upstairs together, knocked on the door, entered the room, and sat down. They were silent all the way, as silent as the last dawn before the confrontation between the two armies.Ye Qiu picked up the menu, politely asked Zhou Zekai for his opinion, and ordered a table of dishes with familiarity.Zhou Zekai sat on the opposite side of the table and concentrated on drinking tea with lowered eyes. His eyes fell on the tea soup, melting away all his emotions.This was the first time he had contact with Ye Qiu alone. Although he couldn't smell the pheromone, the excitement and trembling in his bones told him that the other party was not a weak Alpha either.When the strong meet, it is better to be cautious at the beginning.

After the waiter reported the names of the dishes, he retreated. As soon as the door of the private room was closed, Zhou Zekai gently put down his cup and said, "Good tea."

Mr. Samsara Zhou's taciturnity is well-known in the industry. Ye Qiu didn't expect him to take the initiative to start the topic, and a trace of surprise flashed across his face: "This tea...isn't a precious variety. The wild tea from the southwest It’s just bitter.” After speaking, Alpha paused, and his smile deepened: “I think it’s normal, but someone likes it very much.”

Zhou Zekai heard the words, and looked at the tea in the cup carefully against the light: "Thank you, I will remember."

"I'm not trying to help you, Mr. Zhou. There are too many good teas here, and the treasures that many people can't get are just a matter of ordering a little on the menu. But no one expected that this is what he likes—in fact, My brother often does the same with other things, and I can't use conventional thinking to speculate at all."

The lighting in the private room is a bit like the sunset in that evening, and the smiles of the twin brothers are as calm and breezy as the elder brother:

"Speaking of which, Mr. Zhou's condition is really a hundred miles—no, pick one out of ten thousand."

After a cup of tea, the dishes began to be served one after another.When the waiter closed the door for the last time, Ye Qiu put his hands on the table, with a smile on his face, but his eyes were as sharp as a life-and-death situation on the negotiating table: "Mr. Zhou is invited to come today. If you don't mind, I mainly want to Talk to my brother."

Zhou Zekai sat upright, nodded and said, "Me too."

"Want to know more...about him."

They sat facing each other, and the post-modern chandelier hung in the middle, like a deformed boundary river.Ye Qiu kept staring at Zhou Zekai, but the latter deliberately avoided eye contact by nodding, until the last word "he" landed.His eyes as black as ink looked straight across the boundary river, as if two clusters of dark fires were burning inside.

Of course, Ye Qiu didn't look away, but raised his eyebrows with interest: "It depends on what you think, Mr. Zhou. In my opinion, my brother probably regards you as a 'partner'? I don't know Zhou What do you think, sir?"

"companion."

"Huh?" Ye Qiu leaned back, folded his arms and said, "Partner? Mr. Zhou—I understand—you are a very good Alpha, and you need an Omega worthy of you. Unfortunately, my brother is not an ordinary Omega. If you're looking for an IKEA . . . with all due respect, I'm afraid he doesn't meet your requirements at all."

"The descendants of the Ye family have been raised as the strongest Alphas since they were young. If they can't be canaries in a cage, they don't bother to be them."

"..."

The expression on Zhou Zekai's face remained unchanged, he didn't say anything, he just stood up and refilled the glasses of the two of them.The private room was extremely quiet, and the sound of splashing liquid made the atmosphere even more depressing.Seeing that the other party had been silent for so long, Ye Qiu thought that the troops would be withdrawn before the battle was fought, and he was really disappointed.But after he thought about it, this was another good deed for Ye Xiu, and he couldn't help but look more forgiving when he looked at Zhou Zekai.Just as the topic was about to be brought to light, the young man suddenly said, "You didn't close the door properly that day, and I heard it all."

"Oh?" Ye Qiu, who has experienced many battles in this matter, did not expect such a development, straightened up from the back of the chair, and leaned forward with interest: "So, Mr. Zhou, what do you mean... ...are you going to face the difficulties?"

"I want him, not Omega." The young Alpha picked up his teacup, and took a sip of the reheated tea.Because it is already the second brew, the bitterness has faded, and the fragrance in the sweetness is just right.

"It will take time to get to him."

"You sound very confident."

Zhou Zekai lowered his eyes and restrained his voice again.The soaked tea leaves in the cup floated up, and slowly sank again.It wasn't until the ups and downs ended that he solemnly replied: "I don't lack time, as long as it's him."
