Zhu Hong also showed surprise, and the other people in the office all looked at each other blankly, only Meng Jiaojiao, who was stunned for a few seconds, almost jumped up with joy.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Zhan Tingyu asked Gu Zixi rhetorically, he was helping her in disguise, and Meng Jiaojiao couldn't help but feel a little proud.

Gu Zixi blocked for a long time, and finally said: "If the big boss thinks it's my fault, I'm willing to accept the punishment." ”

Meng Jiaojiao was overjoyed, but Zhan Tingyu frowned and didn't say a word.

Zhan Tingyu was very dissatisfied, her face was clearly full of grievances and unwillingness, but she refused to give a word of explanation, and would rather accept punishment?

Is that really that tough?

The corners of Zhan Tingyu's mouth hooked, and his voice was indifferent, "Okay, then deduct half a month's salary to set an example." ”

After speaking, he didn't look at Gu Zixi and Meng Jiaojiao again, and walked away.

As soon as the elevator door closed, Chen Lu got up and stood in front of Zixi, "Zixi, are you okay?"

She originally wanted to help Zixi speak, but seeing that the big boss had a bad face, and even Zhu Hong beside him helped to speak, but to no avail, it made his face even more gloomy.

Later, when he heard the deduction of wages, Chen Lu really didn't have the courage to stand up.

After all, the big boss was obviously helping Meng Jiaojiao this time. She still wondered in her heart, could her analysis be wrong? The big boss is really a layman, and he likes Meng Jiaojiao's vase with no connotation?

Meng Jiaojiao stepped on high heels, proudly arrived in front of Zixi, and raised the corners of her mouth, "It seems that the big boss doesn't attach much importance to you." ”

Gu Zixi didn't speak, she was deducted this month's bonus last time, and this time she was deducted half a month's salary, and when the salary was paid at the end of the month, she only got a few hundred yuan.

This month's hard work is equivalent to almost all of it being donated to the company.

As soon as I thought of this, Zi Xi felt distressed with blood.

She didn't expect Zhan Tingyu to distinguish between right and wrong, and would rather punish her than help Meng Jiaojiao!

But if you think about it carefully, isn't he this kind of person? He has always been as noble as an emperor, and he cannot be refuted, and he is so domineering that people are speechless.

Meng Jiaojiao was a little angry when she saw her return to her seat, ignoring herself, but when she thought that she had just lost face in public and was deducted half a month's salary, she didn't feel better.

Ha~~ She thought that the big boss liked her so much, but it turned out to be nothing more than that!

The big boss helped her in public this time, does it mean that he actually likes himself a little bit? It seems that she has to buy a few clothes well, and she has to fight for the big boss's next chance to come over!

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but be excited in her heart, and walked away humming a little tune.

The elevator went straight down, Zhu Hong had been following behind Zhan Tingyu, and when he got on the bus, he hesitated for a long time but decided to speak.

"Sir, actually, ......"

Zhan Tingyu stopped and turned his head to look at him, with a cool meaning in his eyes, "What do you want to say?"

I have followed him for so many years, not in vain. Zhu Hong knows Zhan Tingyu's character very well, and many times it is so accurate that he only needs a look to understand what he means immediately.

Therefore, at this moment, he also saw the warning in Zhan Tingyu's eyes clearly.

Zhan Tingyu knew what he wanted to say, but his meaning was also obvious, no matter what he said, it would only make him hate Gu Zixi even more, and he would not let him withdraw the order just now, and he would change his opinion of Gu Zixi.

Zhu Hong lowered his head and swallowed the words back, "It's nothing." ”

Zhan Tingyu smiled with satisfaction, "Then let's go." ”

…………

was deducted from his salary, and Zixi was depressed for a while.

Sure enough, when I got the salary slip, the column of the actual salary was clearly written, 800 yuan.

The column for illegal deductions reads one thousand eight.

Zi Xi felt that his whole heart was dripping blood, and he didn't dare to scold in front of Zhan Tingyu, so he could only hold the salary slip and silently greet his ancestors for the eighteen generations in his heart.

After a month of hard work, I only got 800 yuan, which was really miserable.

It's rare to get off work early today, Zixi didn't go back to the Blue Bay Villa, but took the 800 yuan, went to the supermarket, bought some fruits and food, and took the car to review home.

Seeing the courtyard of the Gu family from a distance, Zixi took a deep breath, spit out all the bad things in his heart, patted the corners of his mouth, and made his expression look relaxed and happy.

The Gu family's yard is still as clean as ever, and on the lawn, Uncle Zhang is weeding with a weeding machine.

Seeing Zi Xi, he immediately turned off the buzzing machine and walked over with a smile, "The eldest lady hasn't been back for a long time, how are you doing lately?"

"Hmm. Zixi nodded, with a bright smile on the corner of her mouth, "I'm fine, is Uncle Zhang okay?"

"I'm fine. "Uncle Zhang is about the same age as his grandfather, and the people who have been with his grandfather all his life have also watched Zixi grow up, just like a family member.

Standing outside and greeting Uncle Zhang for a while, Zi Xi stepped into the house.

Aunt Li, who was wearing an apron, came out, grabbed Zixi's wrist with both hands, and looked up and down with her eyes earnestly, "The eldest lady has lost weight." ”

"I've been busy with work lately, so I've lost a little weight. Zixi explained with a smile that this family is still the same as before, everyone still cares about her so much, and treats her as a baby, which is warm, "It's good to be thinner, slimmer and have a good figure, and look good in clothes." ”

Aunt Li nodded, "I'll call the old man." He's been talking about you so many times, and he'd be glad to see you back. ”

Zixi stretched out her hand and grabbed her, "Aunt Li, I'll go up by myself." ”

As he spoke, he handed the fruit and food in his hand to Aunt Li, and went upstairs by himself.

The Gu family's house has been built for a long, long time, and before she was born, it was already an old villa left over from the last century.

After so many years, the stair handrails have been brushed over and over again, and when you step on the floor, you can make some crunching sounds.

At that time, when the Gu family's business was booming, everyone persuaded his grandfather to let him buy a villa again. But grandpa was reluctant, he was a nostalgic person, and he was reluctant to live in a house for a lifetime, so he was abandoned.

Later, something happened to the Gu family, the company was in danger, and there was no way to renovate the home.

Walking up to the familiar second floor and standing in front of the familiar door, Zixi's heart has been warmed all over again.

It doesn't matter how much you are hurt by Zhan Tingyu, at least it can be exchanged for the stability of the Gu family and the stability of your grandfather. Worth!

Knock Knock Knock –

Zixi raised his hand and knocked on the door.

Through the door, there were a few coughs from the old man, and then his deep voice came, "Come in." ”

Zixi couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart, although she hadn't come back for nearly a month, she seemed to have been away from home for a long, long time, and the fingers holding the doorknob at the moment couldn't help but tremble a little.

She pushed open the door and entered, seeing everything familiar in the study.

The bookshelves and desks are all old, the tall old man, his back has become a little rickety, and the gray hair on his temples shows that he has not seen him for a while, and he has become a little older. With a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose, the old man was lying on the desk, writing something hard.

Although it was daytime, the window was open, and the light came in, but the lamp on the table was still on, illuminating the square inch of the place, and also illuminating the old man's wide and rough hands.

Gu Song thought it was Aunt Li who came in, and said without raising his head: "Put the tea aside first, and drink it when it is cold." ”

When I heard this voice and saw that person, I felt like a fish in my throat, and I couldn't help but wet my eyes.

After not hearing the sound for a long time, Gu Song realized that something was wrong, stopped writing, and raised his head from the pile of books.

Seeing the person standing in front of the table, Gu Song was still a little incredulous, pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and squinted at her.

Zi Xi couldn't hold back any longer, walked over quickly, stood in front of Gu Song, and reached out to hold his calloused hand, "Grandpa." ”

The pen in Gu Song's hand fell on the table with a click, and the ink fell out, staining a small piece of the paper.

"Yes...... Pity?" Gu Song almost thought that he was dizzy and misunderstood, so he clenched Zi Xi's hand and asked in a trembling voice.

"It's me, Grandpa. Zixi didn't hold back any of her tears, and burst out of her eyes. Like a pearl with a broken thread, it falls in a flutter.

Gu Song also wet her eyes, held her delicate hand with both hands, held it in the palm of her hand, her voice was a little choked, there were thousands of words to say, there were thousands of questions to ask, but when it came to her mouth, she swallowed it back silently, turning into a sentence, "It's good to come back, it's good to come back......"

It's just four words, but it's repeated several times.

After a month, Zixi returned to this home, as if the walking dead who had been walking outside for a long time finally found his soul, and became flesh and blood again, more like a person.

Gu Song also became very happy because of Zixi's arrival.

When dinner was ready, Uncle Zhang and Aunt Li were pulled up, and they ate and talked around the dining table together, and the atmosphere was very good.

Gu Song was in high spirits, drank a few more glasses, and quickly got on his face, his cheeks were red, and he talked more.

Gu Song has a habit of talking a lot when he drinks too much, and he will talk about things a long time ago when he talks too much.

Zi Xi was listening energetically, and the doorbell rang.

Aunt Li put down her chopsticks and got up, and said with a smile: "It must be Aunt Chen from the next room, I asked her to help me bring some ginger star anise in the morning." I'm going to open the door. ”

After that, he got up and went to open the courtyard door.

Zi Xi saw that the wine in Gu Song's cup was gone, so he reached out and poured it for him.

After a while, I heard footsteps behind me, and knew that Aunt Li was back, so I subconsciously turned back. But after seeing the person behind Aunt Li, the smile immediately stiffened at the corner of her mouth.

Coming in behind Aunt Li was a man with a black trench coat on his shoulders, a handsome complexion, and an outstanding temperament. The corners of his mouth are holding a smile but not a smile, and his eyes are cold, which makes people feel cold in their hearts.

Zhan Tingyu!

Zi Xi stood up abruptly and looked at him nervously, "Mr. Zhan, what are you doing...... Will it come?"
