Chapter 30: An Excuse Commified for the Sake of Encounter
"Smack!"
A resounding slap fell on Zhou Yaqi's face, making her unstable and sitting crookedly on the sofa.
The owner of this slap, his apricot eyes widened, and said to Zhou Yaqi on the sofa: "You have worked so hard to cultivate you, and you still haven't caught a golden beetle son-in-law, what's the use of asking you to use it for flower arrangement?"
"Mom, I've been following the path you paved for me, maneuvering among all kinds of famous and noble gifts, but they didn't choose me in the end, can you blame me all?" Zhou Yaqi looked at the invincible woman in front of her with red eyes.
The woman pushed Zhou Yaqi's head, "The company's situation is getting worse, the company's survival is tied to you, your parents raised you so big, it's time for you to do something to repay us, so you put away your cheap grievances." ”
Looking at the woman's indifference, Zhou Yaqi couldn't help but guess whether she was their own child.
"Now, I can only break the oath I made with the deceased, Cheng Yueze is your last chance, you must seize him, otherwise you can only marry the chairman of the Wang Group. The woman picked up the goblet on the table, poured some red wine, and shook it in her hand, without giving Zhou Yaqi a look.
"Haha! Wang Jiancheng is that old man, his sons are older than me. Zhou Yaqi staggered to his feet, grabbed the bag at hand, and walked out of the house.
Just now, she learned a big secret, that is, Cheng Yueze's other identity, the illegitimate son of the daughter of the multinational group Mo's daughter, this secret even Cheng Yueze himself does not know.
Mo Lan's daughter Mo Lan was a friend of Zhou Yaqi's mother Yuan Li, Yuan Li has always kept her life history secret, Mo Lan has committed suicide for so many years, and now she has to betray her original promise for the survival of her husband's company.
At that time, Mo Lan was deeply in love with Cheng Yuanshan and refused to marry the marriage object set by the family, so he broke off the relationship with the family and followed Cheng Yuanshan, but Cheng Yuanshan finally had to marry his current wife Lin Duxue, Mo Lan couldn't extricate himself and still never gave up on him, and gave birth to Cheng Yue Ze with him, Lin Duxue learned that the newborn baby boy was taken away from Mo Lan, Mo Lan finally became depressed and chose the most extreme means of revenge against Cheng Yuanshan and committed suicide.
Cheng Yuanshan felt guilty about Mo Lan because of this, and attached great importance to Cheng Yueze, Cheng Jingxiu knew that he had indirectly taken away everything from Cheng Yueze, so he always wanted to return everything to him one day.
Zhou Yaqi came to the door, and the assistant was already waiting there to pick her up in the car, thinking that she was a wealthy daughter and a hot supermodel, but in fact she was just a bargaining chip used by her parents to gamble in the business world.
On the day Cheng Yueze went abroad, Tao Zisu specially asked for leave to see him off, although Tao Zisu was already trying to be as forbearant as possible, but at the moment of separation, his eyes were still red.
"Take care of yourself, whatever happens, wait for me to come back, and I will explain all the doubts to you. Cheng Yueze hugged Tao Zisu in his arms and whispered.
Although Tao Zisu didn't quite understand the meaning of Cheng Yueze's words, he still nodded in agreement.
Back at the company, Tao Zisu felt that his heart was suddenly empty, and without Cheng Yueze by his side, the air was much colder.
"What's wrong today, the temperature of the air conditioner is not as high as usual. Tao Zisu rubbed his arms and put his coat on.
The weather outside is gray, and I wonder which day the first snow will fall this year?
Tao Zisu was looking at the sky in the distance in front of the window, thinking that Cheng Yueze's flight was sailing on a certain route, when the phone rang to interrupt her thoughts.
Picking up the phone, the other party was a young man.
"Hello Miss Tao, I am Lan Yuji, the representative of Blue Ocean, and I would like to make an appointment with you to discuss matters related to the entry of the restaurant. ”
Cheng Yueze handed over everything to others before going abroad, but handed over this matter to Tao Zisu.
"Hello Mr. Lan, the time and place are up to you to book. ”
After agreeing on the time and place, Tao Zisu went through the information compiled by Cheng Yueze before to ensure that he had a complete grasp of the entire case.
Rather than handing over this case to Tao Zisu, it is better to say that Cheng Yueze is remotely controlled, and all decisions must be reported to him before making a decision, Tao Zisu can't make any decisions, and her role is a spokesperson.
The location was about to be at the Blue Ocean Restaurant in the city center, and Tao Zisu arrived at the meeting place early after work, but he didn't expect the other party to be waiting there.
"Sorry, I'm late. Tao Zisu hurriedly apologized when he saw Lan Yu.
"Miss Tao is not late, I came early. Lan Yuyu motioned for Tao Zisu to sit down.
After sitting down, Tao Zisu saw Lan Yuji's appearance clearly, and he was clearly impressed, especially his pair of peach blossom eyes, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
After ordering the meal, Lan Yuyu looked at Tao Zisu and said, "Miss Tao doesn't have any impression of me?"
"I'm sorry, we seem to have met somewhere, but my impression is not too deep anymore, can you hint at it?" Tao Zisu was a little embarrassed.
"At the jewelry store, I accompanied my sister to look at the jewelry that day. Lan Yujian smiled at the corner of his mouth when he spoke.
"It's you! Tao Zisu remembered it and was very surprised, she had an impression of the events of that day, and that Miss Lan also took a fancy to the jewelry she designed.
"It's a coincidence. Lan Yuyu didn't say anything, just smiled and picked up the water cup in front of him and took a sip of water, the so-called coincidence was just an excuse for the sake of meeting. It was the third time he had seen her, but every time he saw her, it was a different feeling.
After eating, walking out of the restaurant, Tao Zisu met Zhou Yaqi who came over at the door, it was too late to hide, so he could only walk over to say hello, "Miss Zhou, I met you here so coincidentally." ”
Zhou Yaqi originally only noticed Lan Yuji, but as soon as Tao Zisu spoke, she caught her attention, and she was also slightly stunned, "You know?"
"I didn't know each other before, but before Mr. Cheng went to the United States, he handed over a case at hand to me to handle on my behalf. ”
Zhou Yaqi nodded slightly, and didn't say anything, just wrote down Cheng Yueze's trip to the United States in her heart.
Lan Yuyu also said hello to Zhou Yaqi briefly, and then sent Tao Zisu out of the restaurant, "Where does Miss Tao live, I'll send you back." ”
"Don't bother, I'll just take a taxi back, thank you for your kindness. See you soon!"
Seeing Tao Zisu's refusal, Lan Yuyu no longer insisted on it, after all, it was the first time on the river, and the purpose was too strong, which was a little abrupt.
After Tao Zisu finished speaking, he separated from Lan Yuji, turned around and walked towards the taxi place.
Lan Yuyu kept watching Tao Zisu get into the taxi, she was the first girl who didn't look sideways for him, thinking that he Lan Yuyu relied on a handsome face, especially those peach blossom eyes, coupled with his superior family background, how many women came and went, and they fell under the corners of his suit pants. Only this Tao Zisu was unmoved.
It seems that the news he got is true, Yun Ming told him that the relationship between Tao Zisu and Cheng Yueze is extraordinary, so when he asked Cheng Yueze to meet that day, he deliberately tried it, and the result of the temptation was that Cheng Yueze's opponent was very tricky.
During the conversation with Tao Zisu today, every time she mentioned Cheng Yueze, she would reveal different emotions, which further confirmed Yun Ming's guess.
He Lan Yuyu was tempted for a girl for the first time, how could he give up easily, no matter how strong the wall was, he was willing to lurk beside Tao Zisu and move with the times.
On the other side, as soon as Tao Zisu got home, he immediately sent an email to Cheng Yueze, Lan Yuyu raised a few objections just now, why did there be a problem when the cooperation case was already negotiated, Tao Zisu was worried that the other party was pinching soft persimmons.
The next day, in a special lounge of Xingyu Agency, Zhou Yaqi sat in the middle of the sofa with her arms crossed, "Assistant Zhang, Judy is shooting on the streets of New York, you want to find a way to get it for me." ”
"Why are you suddenly interested in that, you said you didn't want to accept anything when people approached you before, but now that you have been replaced, I'm afraid it's not easy to solve. Assistant Zhang leaned on the edge of the table, looking embarrassed.
"You have to fight for me at all costs, Assistant Zhang's methods, I know very well. Zhou Yaqi looked at Assistant Zhang with a smile, but her eyes were resolute and irreversible.
Assistant Zhang paused, and finally sighed, "You wait for the news." With that, he turned and left.
Knowing that Cheng Yueze was in the United States, Zhou Yaqi began to plan, and now that he and Tao Zisu are separated, it is a good opportunity to break them up, and what to do is to wait for the opportunity over there.
Two days later, Zhou Yaqi won the street photo as she wished and prepared to fly to the United States.
The taste of Christmas is getting stronger and stronger, as if the bell on the elk sleigh driven by Santa Claus is also ringing in her ears, Tao Zisu stands in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the office, looking at the gray weather outside, the first snow of this year is the first snow after the two of them are together, but Cheng Yueze is not by her side.
Looking at the scattered snow outside the window, Tao Zisu stretched out his hand to touch it, but all his fingertips touched was the cold glass.
She and Cheng Yueze just spoke on the phone yesterday, and he didn't say when he would come back. Thinking of this, Tao Zisu couldn't help but feel a little lonely in his heart.
"Come in!" there was a knock on the door, and Tao Zisu returned to his desk and sat down, answering the outside.
The door was opened, and the person who walked in was Cheng Jingxiu, Tao Zisu hurriedly stood up, "President, why did you come here in person." ”
Cheng Jingxiu smiled warmly, signaling that she didn't have to be restrained, "I'm here for the benefit of a certain employee who wants to wear it." ”
Tao Zisu looked puzzled, "What does the president mean?"
"Haha! ticket and address, you can go to him. Cheng Jingxiu handed Tao a plane ticket and a note with an address written on it.
"What is this?" Tao Zisu was even more puzzled now, opened it and looked at it, and suddenly understood something, "Thank you, President!"
Tao Zisu's joy is beyond words.
After Cheng Jingxiu left, Tao Zisu excitedly kissed the ticket on his hand, and hugged it to his chest as if he had a treasure.
I looked at the time of the ticket, just in time to accompany Cheng Yueze for Christmas.
