Zhou He and Sister Liu exchanged a few words of greeting, and then went directly to the topic. The situation on Sister Liu's side is more tricky than on her side, when she went over, the person in charge of the company over there was a veteran under Meng Shan. She probably wanted to give her Ma Wei in the past, but she didn't even have a place to live. The person in charge hung her for a week before meeting her.

She talked about her experience of fighting wits and courage, and asked Zhou Hexian not to take any action. Wait until you fully understand the company's situation, and then take action slowly.

Sister Liu said that Zhou He took a note on paper, and the two talked for more than two hours before she wanted Sister Liu to thank her and hung up the phone.

Being outside is completely different from following Meng Shan. Following Meng Shan's side, Meng Shan has everything going on. And when she was outside, she had to think of her own way to deal with big and small things, and she couldn't help but be anxious for a while.

Fortunately, Brother Cai's business level is excellent, which has relieved her of a big worry.

In N City, Zhou Hebi was much busier with Meng Shan. Overtime is commonplace, and rest is almost non-existent. For a while, she had a bad cold and eventually had a pneumonia. The doctor asked to be admitted to the hospital and get a good rest. She was hospitalized, but she brought her work to the hospital, and she didn't rest until late at night.

The busy days always pass quickly, and the months pass by in a flash. The hot summer passes, and the cold winter arrives.

Zhouhe's efforts have paid off, the market in N City has gradually been opened, and everyone's efforts have paid off. Meng Shan handed out a large bonus, and the company was boiling for a while.

Zhou He paid out of his own pocket to invite everyone to dinner, and he made trouble until late. She was so tired that she fell asleep during this time, and although she was poured a lot of wine and poured on the bed in the humble dormitory, she couldn't sleep at all. My mind was empty, and I didn't know what I was thinking.

It was the first time she had really relaxed since she came here. It should be relaxed, but the bottom of my heart is inexplicably heavy.

She stared at the mottled ceiling with her eyes open, and then closed her eyes and fell asleep after a long time.

N City is much colder than Yucheng and Kyoto, and in early December, Xu Yuanning sent a large package of things to Zhou He, all of which were sweaters and coats bought according to Zhou He's size.

Because he was busy, Zhou He had very little contact with him. After receiving the things, I called him and said that it was not as cold as I thought, and that it would be good to get used to it.

The two hadn't seen each other for half a year, and Xu Yuanning asked her if she would return to Beijing for the Chinese New Year. Zhou He said that he would have to wait until the end of the year to go back. She had to go back and report the situation to Meng Shan.

Xu Yuanning asked her to call him after booking a ticket, and he went to pick him up. He should also return to Beijing at the end of the year.

Zhou He's okay.

Because of Meng Shan's request, Zhou He returned to Beijing half a month earlier than expected. She's lost a lot of weight, but she's also much smarter than she used to look.

She didn't call Xu Yuanning in the end, and it was Meng Shan who sent the company's driver to pick her up. When Meng Shan arrived at the company, she was not there, so she distributed the specialties she brought from N City to her colleagues.

Meng Shan came back half an hour later, and when she saw Zhou He, she said, "Didn't you let you rest well and come back tomorrow?"

Zhou He smiled and said, "I'm not very tired, it's the same when I come to report to you and go back to rest." ”

Meng Shan didn't say anything more, and asked the assistant to make two cups of coffee.

It was two hours after Zhou He finished reporting the details one by one. There will be a holiday in a short time, Meng Shan knows her hard work, let her have a good rest, and she won't use the company during this time.

The company has expanded a lot in the past six months, and will move to a new building next year. Naturally, the staff dormitory was gone, and she remembered that Zhou He had lived in the staff dormitory before, and asked her if she had a place to live. If you don't have a place to live, go to her for a few days, and then move to a new place after the New Year, and then you can move into the staff apartment there.

Zhou He naturally wouldn't trouble her, so he said that he had a place to live.

Meng Shan got up and said, "I'm just going out, I'll send you back by the way." ”

After she finished speaking, she didn't wait for Zhou He to refuse, so she got up and asked the assistant to arrange the driver, and then Zhou He went downstairs together.

When the two arrived at the parking lot downstairs, the driver was already waiting, and after politely greeting her, Meng Shan asked, "Are all the things ready?"

"It's all ready as you commanded. ”

Meng Shan nodded and got into the car.

She didn't look like she was going out to talk. Without waiting for Zhou He to ask, Meng Shan said: "Mr. Cheng is sick and hospitalized, I only heard about it at noon today, I'll go over and take a look." ”

Zhou He was stunned when he heard the word 'Mr. Cheng', Meng Shan probably knew what she was thinking, and said, "It's Mr. Cheng from Yucheng." I don't know what's going on, but I heard that I've been hospitalized for more than a week. ”

The two companies cooperated, and since she heard about it, she naturally had to visit.

Zhou He nodded and did not speak.

The company was not far from where she lived, and it didn't take long to arrive. Meng Shan wanted the driver to carry the luggage for Zhou He, but Zhou He refused.

The corridor was still deserted, and when he went to open the door, Zhou He looked at the door opposite, and quickly withdrew his gaze, opened the door and entered the house.

It had been uninhabited for too long, and the house was deserted and dusty. She put down her things and cleaned them up, it was already late, and she didn't bother to buy things, so she directly ordered takeout. It was only when he was eating that he called Xu Yuanning and told him that she had returned.

Xu Yuanning has returned to Beijing, but the little guy has a cold.

The little guy still remembered Zhou He, and when he heard Zhou He's call, he asked her to go to see him at home. He had a cold and the doctor said he couldn't go out.

Zhou He's heart was soft, and he answered, and asked the little guy what he wanted to eat or what gift he wanted, and she brought it to him.

Xu Yuanning did not live in the old mansion of the Xu family, but lived outside alone. It was still early when she passed, the little guy had just gotten up, and Xu Yuanning had just finished washing him.

He was happy to see Zhou He, and he screamed one by one, sticking to Zhou He's body.

Zhou He picked him up. The little one is three years old, and he speaks much more neatly than before. Take Zhou He to see his toys and comic books.

Xu Yuanning called for dinner, and he sat down at the dining table obediently, and he didn't need to be fed at all.

I don't know if it's because the little guy is sick and hasn't slept well or what, Xu Yuanning's face is not very good. He needed to get some work done at home, and when Zhou He played with the little one later, he went to the study to take care of his business.

The little guy caught a cold and was still weak, and after playing for a while, he yawned. Zhou He gently carried him to his small room and gently patted him to sleep. Waiting for the little guy to fall asleep, she closed the door and went to the study to see Xu Yuanning.

The door of the study was not closed, Xu Yuanning was holding the phone in his hand and was standing by the window in a daze. Zhou He knocked on the door, but he didn't have any response, so he called his senior brother.

Only then did he Xu Yuanning come back to his senses, stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, a smile appeared on his face, and asked, "Is the little guy asleep?"

Zhou He replied and fell asleep. Seeing that he seemed to have something on his mind, he asked, "Senior brother, is there something wrong with you?"

Xu Yuanning squeezed out a smile and said that it was okay.

Zhou He didn't believe it, but Xu Yuanning didn't want to say it, and she was silent and didn't speak.

The study was very quiet for a while, and after a while, Xu Yuanning sat down on the sofa, propped his hand on the center of his eyebrows, and said in a low voice: "Shen Yue is back." ”

Zhou He couldn't help but be stunned, and immediately remembered the little guy and asked, "Is she going to take Lele away?"

Xu Yuanning shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be." If she really planned to take Lele away, she wouldn't have left him behind. ”

It was because he didn't know what Shen Yue wanted to do that he was upset. With Shen Yue's character, he won't come back for no reason.

Zhou He fell silent and said, "Maybe she just came back for the New Year." ”

Xu Yuanning showed a wry smile and said, "I hope so." ”

Because of the mention of this, for the rest of the time, both of them were silent and did not speak. Shen Yue is like a time bomb that will explode at any time.

After a long while, Xu Yuanning regained his spirits and said, "Maybe I'm thinking too much." He didn't want the atmosphere to be so dull and divert the subject.

Auntie went back for the New Year, and during this time, Xu Yuanning would be alone with the little guy. Zhou He was idle, so he went to the kitchen to open the refrigerator, planning to get some cooked food for him to put in the refrigerator, and sometimes he was too busy to eat it hot.

He still has to work, and it's hard to be alone with the little one. Zhou He asked him when he would go back to the old mansion, and he replied that there was still some time.

Because Shen Yue exists like a time bomb, he subconsciously reduces the contact between parents and children. I am afraid that one day the child will be taken away by Shen Yue, and my parents will not be able to accept it.

Although he would do his best to keep the little guy behind, if Shen Yue really wanted to take the little guy away, he had no position to stop it.

Zhou He stayed at Xu Yuanning's side until it was almost dark and had dinner before leaving. When she stood on the side of the road to stop the car, she looked up at the dark and gloomy sky, and her heart was inexplicably depressed.

The weather is cold, and the car is not easy to stop. When Zhou He returned to his residence, it was already past eight o'clock. When I got out of the elevator, I saw a black cat wandering down the hallway.

The cat was lazy, and when he heard the footsteps, he raised a pair of green eyes and glanced at Zhou He, and squatted down lazily.

I have never seen anyone have a cat on this floor, and Zhou He didn't see anyone's door open when he looked at it. She was about to squat down and touch the cat, when she suddenly remembered that when she used to clean up for Cheng Wei, the black cat in his house came.

Her movements froze, and she subconsciously looked at Cheng Wei's door. In the end, he didn't touch the cat, opened the door and went home.

She had just entered the house to change her clothes when there was a knock on the door. She went over and opened the door, and it was Lao Cao standing outside. Probably Cheng Wei had already said it, he was not surprised to see Zhou He, smiled apologetically, and said, "I'm sorry Miss Zhou bothered you, did you see a black cat just now?"

The cat really belonged to Cheng Wei's family.

Zhou He looked into the corridor, it was empty, and the cat didn't know where it was.

Then she said, "I saw ...... in the corridor when I came back just now."

Lao Cao was a little annoyed and said, "Then I should go downstairs." It's not used to coming here, and it will run outside when it opens the door. Disturbing Miss Zhou, I'll go down and have a look first. ”

He said and left in a hurry.

Zhou He originally wanted to ask him if he needed help, but finally swallowed the words and closed the door.

Lao Cao should have finally found the cat back, and when Zhou He came out of washing, she faintly heard a few weak cat meows, and she didn't go out to see.

Suddenly I was a little uncomfortable with being idle, and I lost sleep at night and couldn't sleep all the time. She didn't fall asleep until two o'clock in the morning.

When she woke up the next day, it was already past ten o'clock, and it was about to be the New Year, and she was going to go to the mall to buy something. But just as he was about to go out, there was another knock on the door.

Zhou He walked over, and it was still Lao Cao standing outside.

With apologies on his face, he said, "Miss Zhou, I have to go out, Mr. Cheng can't leave people during the infusion." Call Auntie to come over, she hasn't come over yet, can you please help take care of it. Auntie should be there in a moment. ”

He used to take good care of Zhou He, and aside from that relationship, it was just a trivial matter. Zhou He couldn't refuse, and said hello. I went back to the house, got the key, and closed the door.

Lao Cao told her again and again that he was bothering her, and took medicine for her to replace it if she lost, so she left in a hurry.

The layout in Cheng Wei's house is very simple, the old cat nests on the sofa, and he doesn't even bother to bark when he sees people coming, so he droops his eyes and continues to doze off.

The room was very quiet, Cheng Wei's bedroom door was open, he should be sleeping, and there was no movement.

Zhou He was not comfortable in an unfamiliar place, and finally sat down on the sofa. There was nothing to entertain, so she turned on the TV, turned off the sound and watched.

said that he was watching TV, but most of the time he was in a daze. After watching it for half an hour, I went into the bedroom to see if Cheng Wei's medicine was finished.

The potion dripped slowly, and there was a small half bottle. Cheng Wei's face was pale under the quilt, and there was no blood at all. He was still asleep, his eyes closed.

Zhou Ji didn't stay, and when he saw the medicine, he went back to the living room. I took out my phone and looked at the time. Lao Cao's aunt will come over soon, and I don't know why she hasn't come over yet.

Zhou He couldn't sit still and stopped watching TV. Standing by the window of the living room, I looked out at the gray sky and the cars coming and going. It wasn't until he estimated that the potion was about to run out, so he took the medicine and changed it.

She moved gently, trying not to make a sound. But when he pulled out the potion and inserted it into another medicine bottle, Cheng Wei still woke up.

He was slightly stunned when he saw Zhou Heshi, and then sat up with his hands on the bed.

Zhou He had to explain: "Uncle Cao has gone out, and Auntie hasn't come over yet, so let me come over to change the medicine." ”

Her tone was understated and detached.

Cheng Wei didn't speak, and after a while, he said in a dumb voice, "Can you pour me a glass of water?"

He hadn't spoken for a long time, and his voice was terribly hoarse. The lips are also chapped.

Zhou He said wait a while, and quickly went out of the bedroom to the kitchen. She wasn't familiar with this place, but fortunately there was nothing here, and she took a glass of water and poured a glass of water into the bedroom in a short time. It was handed to Cheng Wei.

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, Cheng Wei's fingers touched her hand when she took the water glass. Zhou He was like an electric shock, and quickly retracted his hand.

Her reaction was a little more sensitive. Cheng Wei lowered his eyes, took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and then said, "I'm fine, you can go back." Trouble. ”

His tone was equally polite.

Zhou He responded with a hello, didn't stay long, stood for a while, and then opened the door and went out. The door was quickly shut, and Cheng Wei rested the water cup on the head of the bed and closed his eyes.

Zhou He returned home and stayed for a while, originally planning to go to the mall. But after all, I promised Lao Cao that it would be irresponsible for her to come back before her aunt came, and she still didn't go out.

Fortunately, the aunt came over not long after, and when she heard the door opening on the opposite side, she saw the figure of the aunt from the cat's eye, and she was ready to go out.

Although Meng Shan let Zhou He rest, she couldn't be idle. In the next few days, I went out early and returned late, and went to the bookstore to read and buy books.

And after that day, she hadn't seen the door open on the other side. I don't know if I'm back in Yucheng or where I've gone.

The weather has always been dry and cold, and it snowed outside on New Year's Day. They fell from the sky one after another. The weather was cold and Zhou was too lazy to go out, so he nestled on the sofa to read books and watch TV.

The heating in the room was warm, and she dozed off as she sat down. Just as he was about to fall asleep, there was a banging on the door.

Zhou He reacted after a while, and then went to open the door with his slippers. Standing outside the door was Cheng Wei's aunt, with a polite smile on her face and a foam box in her hand. Seeing Zhou He, he said: "Miss Zhou, this is the seafood sent by the customer to Mr. Cheng, and it is still fresh." Last time, I asked you to take care of Mr. Cheng, so I'll send you some to try. ”

Zhou He didn't pick it up, and said politely: "It's just a trivial matter, you don't have to take it to heart." It's all neighbors, as they should. ”

The aunt stuffed the foam box into her hand and said, "Hurry up, there are still many at home, and if you can't finish eating, it will be wasted." Thanks to you that day, I was stuck in a traffic jam on the road. If it weren't for you, Mr. Cheng, if something had happened, I would have become a sinner. ”

She was afraid that Zhou He would refuse, so she immediately went back to the opposite room after stuffing it into her hand, and asked Zhou He to take it again and again.

Zhou He hugged the foam box, and it was not good to take it in, nor was it if he didn't take it in. Seeing that the door on the opposite side closed quickly, he had to bring it into the house.

There are several kinds of seafood in the foam box, all of which are airlifted and fresh. Zhou He opened it, looked at it, and put it in the refrigerator.

It's all been taken over, and it can't be wasted. At noon, she made seafood porridge. She had cooked so much that she remembered that the enthusiastic aunt had come, and was ready to send her a bowl.

Cheng Wei shouldn't be there at noon, so she served it in a bowl and went over to knock on the door. But it was not the aunt who came to open the door, but Cheng Wei.

Zhou He didn't expect him to be there, so he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then said, "Is Auntie there......?"

Before she finished speaking, Cheng Wei stepped aside and said in a dumb voice, "She's in the kitchen, come in." ”

As he spoke, he went inside. Zhou He paused slightly, but still followed.

She didn't stay long, gave the porridge to her aunt and left. Cheng Wei probably went back to the room and didn't see a figure.

Zhou He received a call from Xu Yuanning the next afternoon, saying that he had something to go out and asked her to come over and watch the little guy for a while.

If he wasn't busy, he wouldn't have called, so Zhou Heli responded and immediately took a taxi.

When she passed, Xu Yuanning had already packed up and was ready to go out, told Zhou He everything about the little guy's milk powder and other things, and said that he would come back soon and leave in a hurry.

The little guy was happy to see Zhou He, and he was not in a bad mood because Xu Yuanning went out. pulled Zhou He to play a game with him.

Xu Yuanning said that he would come back soon, but he did not come back. I called back, saying that there was a temporary delay and that it should be late.

The snow was falling heavily outside, and Zhou He asked him to drive slower, don't worry about the little guy, the little guy is very well-behaved.

He didn't come back until after the little guy had fallen asleep at ten o'clock, and he didn't know what he was dealing with, and his face was full of exhaustion. Zhou He was about to leave when he came back, so he went to the kitchen to heat up a meal for him. said that she was resting during this time, and he was busy with her coming over tomorrow to take the little one.

Xu Yuanning did not refuse and thanked her. The little one couldn't send her at home, so he told her to be careful on the road.

Zhou He responded, and when he saw that he was going to send her out, he asked him not to send her, closed the door and walked to the elevator quickly.

She thought it wouldn't be easy to get a snowmobile, but as soon as she got downstairs, a taxi came by. She told the driver the address and got into the car.

The road was slippery in snowy weather, and there was a traffic jam on the viaduct. It was blocked for almost two kilometers, and seeing that the front was motionless, the driver simply turned off the fire and waited.

Waiting for the car in front of him to start moving, he couldn't start the car when it started. The driver cursed a swear word and hurriedly got out of the car to check it.

The car didn't know what was wrong, he couldn't get it right, and Zhou He finally had to get out of the car.

The whole road was congested with traffic, and it was not easy to get a taxi, so she walked to a road that was not too congested, planning to take a taxi as she went. The snow is getting heavier and heavier, and no one will stop when a taxi is available.

Zhou He walked two stops, and saw that the snow was falling heavier, so he had to stand under the bus stop to avoid it.

I thought that as long as there was no traffic jam here, there would be cars coming soon, but there was no one. She looked at the time and was about to grit her teeth and walk back slowly when a black Volkswagen stopped in front of her.

The window was lowered, and Cheng Wei's slightly pale face was revealed. probably knew that Zhou He would only go home at this time, and said in a low voice: "Get in the car." ”

Zhou He didn't move, and said, "Thank you, I've already called a car, and I'll be over in a while." ”

Cheng Wei didn't speak, just sat in the car and looked at her.

Zhou He stood still, letting the dim yellow light stretch the shadow long. After a long interval of two minutes, Cheng Wei said coldly in a hoarse voice: "The snow is falling heavily, do you think there may be a car coming at this time?"
