Chapter 10: Is it for her?
Xu Ru has been recovering well since the surgery a year ago, and there have been no problems in the examination in recent months.
The doctor said that if she could survive the critical period of three years smoothly, she would have a very good chance of recovery.
In this regard, whether it is Xu Ru herself or Zhou Niannian as a daughter, they all have an optimistic attitude.
Saturday is supposed to be a monthly check-up day.
However, because the attending doctor was transferred to another shift that day, the examination was rescheduled for Sunday.
Coincidentally, Zhou Niannian received a notice to work overtime.
"Mom, is it really okay for you to go alone?"
She was not at ease before leaving,
"Otherwise, I'll go with you, I'll find a reason to push off the job."
"Oops, you kid"
Xu Ru pushed her out,
"How many times have I said it, mom is fine, it's just a check, I'll go by myself - your work is important, don't let your colleagues wait too long, let's go!"
"That's good"
Zhou Niannian took the subway to the company.
Huo Ting is already there.
Look at the time, nine o'clock in the morning.
The overtime time announced before was ten o'clock, and he was really early enough.
Past knocking on the half-hidden glass door of the office,
"Mr. Huo"
"Come in"
Zhou Niannian walked in.
"This is the company's product analysis report for the past four years"
Huo Ting pushed a document to her,
"Cobest's line, sort it out for me"
"Good"
Zhou Niannian took the documents and wanted to go out.
Huo Ting curled his fingers and tapped the table twice, calling her to stop,
"No need to go"
He took out another laptop, raised his chin slightly, and motioned for Zhou Niannian to sit across from him.
"Uh...... No, I'm ......."
Before he finished speaking, Huo Ting had already spoken,
"Sit down"
After a few days of getting along, Zhou Niannian had a very clear understanding of Huo Ting's temperament.
Knowing that it would be useless to talk more, he had to sit down opposite him.
Holding a notebook, opening the office software and typing the data, his eyes involuntarily always sneak to the man opposite.
Zhou Niannian secretly scolded himself for being unproductive.
I think of a lyric that is just right at the moment:
- But who made Huo Ting too beautiful.
Huo Ting seems to be sending WeChat messages to someone.
After a few back and forth, the corners of his lips were already curled into a stiff line, and with a "click", he threw his phone on the table—impatience visible to the naked eye.
"Is it okay?"
He asked Zhou Niannian.
"Right Away"
Knocking down the last line of data, Zhou Niannian breathed a sigh of relief and raised his head,
"Alright, Huo—"
Hit a hard object overhead.
At some point, Huo Ting had walked behind her, leaning over and staring at the computer screen with her.
Realizing that it was Huo Ting's chin that was bumped into, Zhou Niannian's ears were directly red to transparency,
"I'm sorry, Mr. Huo......"
Huo Ting didn't care.
The hand came around from behind her shoulder and pointed at the computer screen,
"Here...... You have to mark the profit margin of the year and give me a longitudinal visual comparison."
Forget who said that the meticulous man at work, the most charming.
Zhou Niannian seemed to have felt it.
Huo Ting's other hand was propped up on the chair beside her.
Zhou Niannian didn't have to look back, he could imagine that picture.
He was similar to being "held" in his arms by Huo Ting from behind.
The two were too close.
She could even smell Huo Ting's body, similar to the crisp smell of pine and cypress.
For a moment, my heart was beating like a thunderous drum.
"What are you doing?"
A sharp and shrill voice dispelled all Zhou Niannian's reverie behind him.
Turning around, the delicate-looking woman stepped on high heels and walked up to the two of them menacingly.
She raised her hand, neatly and crisply, and slapped Zhou Niannian is face.
"Thunder"
She struck preemptively, looking stunned, as if she was not the perpetrator just now, but a victim.
"You're not going to pick me up at the airport today, is it just for her?"
