Wu Jue and Cheng Yuzheng's not so pleasant conversation did not affect the harmonious relationship between her and his superiors and subordinates. He is polite, she is polite and polite, coupled with the flawless cooperation at work, on the surface, the two are a golden pair.

However, this is only the surface.

For Cheng Yuzheng, Wu Jue knew that he was a frank and clear person, but he always had a feeling of being stuck in his throat and unable to speak. What's more, he is still Lin Jiahe's friend in life, a confidant at work, and she has to be a little cautious about every move in front of him. And she also believes in Cheng Yuzheng, and she always has doubts about her, a subordinate who is young and shallow but inexplicably promoted, but also claims to have an innocent relationship with the boss.

In fact, Wu Jue sometimes thinks that she would rather be less innocent with Lin Jiahe. If that were the case, she might have taken fewer detours.

Since that time in the hospital, Wu Jue has not seen Lin Jiahe again for several days. He was at the top of the pyramid of the Lin Zheng Kingdom, and she had only just secured a small position, so she didn't want to meet him if she wanted to.

What's more, she didn't want to see him.

For Wu Jue, the top priority is to figure out the work at hand. After being promoted to deputy manager, Wu Jue began to get in touch with some of the core businesses of Lin Zheng's finance department. This undoubtedly filled her with enthusiasm, and her overtime hours increased by a few percent compared to before. At first, the colleagues who were dissatisfied with her promotion, seeing her desperate posture, had to suppress the slander in their hearts.

On Friday evening, Wu Jue worked until almost eight o'clock. When she looked up from the computer report, she was the only one left in the office.

turned off the computer and was about to leave, Cheng Yuzheng hurriedly walked in from outside the office: "You are really still there." ”

"Something?" When Wu Jue saw him like this, he couldn't help but wonder.

"There's a party. Said to bring a female companion to attend. I knew that my female companion had an urgent matter halfway and temporarily retreated, so I could only run back to the office to see if I could get lucky. ”

"Bumped into?" Wu Jue smiled.

"Bumped into." Cheng Yuzheng nodded and smiled, "I hope Miss Wu will lend me a night." ”

"What's the pay?" Wu Jue left his seat, walked up to him, and raised eyebrows at him.

"I will reimburse all the snacks you have when you work overtime in the next month."

Wu Jue nodded thoughtfully: "That's worth considering." ”

"Oops. Sister, don't think about it. The party has begun. Cheng Yuzheng's face wrinkled with a smile, and he pulled Wu Jue and ran towards the elevator.

When he got to the car, Wu Jue remembered and asked, "By the way, I don't know what kind of party it is?" I didn't prepare anything. ”

"It's just an elder's birthday party, you don't need to prepare anything, just pretend that you're my girlfriend-to-be. The elders always can't see the single juniors, and if I attend alone, I don't know what I will be like. It's really embarrassing that I, a lonely man, had found a female companion, but I retreated temporarily. Thankfully, you're here, and you saved my life. ”

"So I'm your savior." Wu Jue smiled.

"It's just my reborn parents. Thank you very much. ”

"Good son, no thanks."

Cheng Yuzheng burst out laughing: "I can't see it, you still joke, I thought you were a workaholic who buried numbers all day long." ”

"You can't see much." Wu Jue also relaxed at this time. Probably because Cheng Yuzheng is really a person who makes people feel relaxed.

"Yes." He nodded thoughtfully, a bright smile on his face.

Wu Jue also smiled, and suddenly remembered something and asked: "It's strange that you don't have a girlfriend on your terms." Don't all the beauties around you see your big diamond? ”

"I also think so, why didn't anyone find me with such a big diamond?" He smiled, disapproving.

"It can't be that you're too ambitious, right?"

This time, Cheng Yuzheng actually hesitated for a moment, pursed his lips and thought about it: "It seems to be really high." ”

Wu Jue thought he was joking, so he only smiled.

The meeting place was an old-style private bungalow, with a courtyard and a garden, which at first glance was owned by wealthy and tasteful capitalists.

Seeing Cheng Yuzheng appear at the door of the hall, several people greeted him, and one of the beautiful women smiled and said, "Cheng Yuzheng, you are even later than Jiahe this time." I'm talking about you! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, an old man with white hair walked up to the two of them: "Yes! I'm still thinking, did the Guo family kid forget about me, an old man. ”

"Sorry, there's a traffic jam on the road. How could I forget Grandpa Qin's birthday? My parents specifically told me to take their place to wish you a long life! It's a pity that they are working and can't come to Jiangcheng in person. Cheng Yuzheng laughed twice and took Wu Jue's hand: "Introduction, this is Wu Jue." ”

The old man glanced at Wu Jue with a smile and nodded without a trace.

Wu Jue stepped forward very cooperatively: "Grandpa Qin is good." ”

"Good, good! Seeing young people like this, I, an old man, am also happy! The old man smiled, turned to greet the crowd, "Everyone sit down." ”

Originally, Wu Jue was not sure, but after walking into the hall and inadvertently catching a glimpse of the painting on the wall, she believed her thoughts, and couldn't help but leaned into Cheng Yuzheng's ear and whispered: "I didn't expect that I would be able to get so close to this kind of character in my lifetime." ”

The old man just now, that is, the elder in Cheng Yuzheng's mouth, is Qin Yuanzhi, the master of Chinese painting. Wu Jue doesn't know much about Chinese painting, but this Qin Yuanzhi has been famous in Jiangcheng for a long time, and it is impossible for Rao to be a lonely and unheard person like her.

Cheng Yuzheng smiled, and replied to her mysteriously: "Do you think her granddaughter is very beautiful?" ”

Wu Jue looked at the woman in front of him and said sincerely: "Very beautiful, Miss Ming, and her temperament is also good." ”

After speaking, she turned her head to look at Cheng Yuzheng, but saw him staring at the direction she had just achieved, his eyes were burning and shining, and there was a vague obsession. Wu Jue had to sigh to himself, it turned out that this was Cheng Yuzheng's "quite high".

Well, it's quite high.

Although the villa is old-fashioned, the interior is quaint with some luxury, the living room is very spacious, and the dozens of people inside are not crowded.

Wu Jue glanced at the people in the hall hastily, and saw a few familiar faces. I can't help but sigh at the truth that people divide into groups.

And what made her sigh even more was that in this hurried glance, she saw a figure that she couldn't ignore.

It turned out that the Jiahe in the mouth of Qin Yuan's granddaughter just now was Lin Jiahe. This title of being close to the people really doesn't match him well.

At this time, there was a woman standing next to Lin Jiahe, tall and beautiful, such a beautiful woman was very in line with his identity. Judging from the distance and posture of the two, it is roughly his female companion tonight, but Wu Jue doesn't know if this beauty is the same as her, the kind that is indiscriminate.

On this occasion, Wu Jue is naturally not suitable to step forward and be courteous to his boss. So, the moment she was sure he saw her, she smiled at him and nodded as a greeting.

Lin Jiahe also nodded, which was a response to her. Under the light, his face looked a little deep as water, which was really not suitable for such a party.

After Zhou Zhou turned to his seat, Wu Jue unfortunately found that he was sitting next to Lin Jiahe for some reason, and only sighed at the magic of fate.

This table is full of young people, except for Qin Yuanzhi's granddaughter, the rest seem to be very familiar. After a while, I realized that most of them were friends who had known each other for many years.

Cheng Yuzheng was originally an empathetic person, and when he was present, he quietly explained Wu Jue's identity to others. Everyone was kind and didn't pay attention to Wu Jue who came to make soy sauce.

Helpless, the beauty was on the side, and it didn't take long for Cheng Yuzheng to just care about smiling with his "very tall", obviously ignoring Wu Jue who played the friendship on the other side most of the time.

Originally, in this atmosphere of laughter and conversation, Wu Jue only needed to eat and drink with his head bored, and treat him as invisible. On the other side, Lin Jiahe's aura was too strong, and it became extremely difficult to even stretch out her chopsticks to drink a drink, and the topics that others at the table talked about were even more buzzing through her ears, and she couldn't listen to a word.

Lin Jiahe rarely spoke, and he did not change his usual solemnity and calmness, he still did not smile, and occasionally the female companion next to him would lean over and smile and say a word or two to him, and he just nodded expressionlessly in response. Even if the topic on the table brought him from time to time, he just shifted away without a trace.

He didn't even turn his head, even if he occasionally said a word or two to Wu Jue.

To others, they may simply be strangers.

Wu Jue thought that they were actually not familiar with each other. It's just that sitting at such a close distance, turning her head slightly is Lin Jiahe's side face, how can she be calm as usual.

Lin Jiahe was destined to be the focus of attention by nature, and after a few rounds of topics, unconsciously, someone led the topic to him: "Jiahe is the most uninteresting, he didn't come to the party nine times out of ten, if it weren't for Grandpa Qin's face, I don't know when I would see you." ”

"Yes! Since returning to China, I haven't even been able to ask you to go to a nightclub for a glass of wine in the past few years. If you hadn't come with Lan Fei today, I would have thought you were in a private collection by a woman from a good family. ”

"Hey, hey, I'm also a woman from a good family, okay, can't Jiahe be collected by me."

"How could Jiahe be buried at the hands of a demon girl like you, people like a light lotus type." The person who spoke paused and suddenly gestured to Wu Jue, "It's almost the same as Miss Wu." Not to mention, I remember that Jiahe had a girlfriend who looked a little similar to Miss Wu. ”

Wu Jue almost choked on the sip of the drink in his mouth, and his face became a little hot inexplicably.

Cheng Yuzheng patted her on the back and said "Hey" twice: "If you want to say Jiahe, don't be involved with my rescue benefactor." ”

Lin Jiahe glanced at Cheng Yuzheng's hand on Wu Jue's back without a trace, and suddenly picked up the wine glass on the table: "It seems that everyone has been complaining about me for a long time, so I will punish myself for a cup of apology tonight." ”

With that, he threw the wine in his cup up.

Seeing that he was so happy, he immediately hit the snake with a stick: "How can you apologize for a cup?" We don't know the amount of alcohol in Jiahe, at least two or three bottles. ”

The table is full of strong foreign wine, and even if the amount of wine is good, I am afraid that I will not be able to stand it.

Wu Jue suddenly remembered how Lin Jiahe looked in the hospital not long ago. I couldn't help but turn my head and frown at him.

Lin Jiahe didn't think so, only smiled faintly, then filled the wine glass himself, and drank another glass in the coaxing of everyone.

After three cups like this, Lin Jiahe's face was already slightly drunk.

However, he seemed to be in a state of interest, and when he filled the wine glass again, Wu Jue unexpectedly covered his wrist with a glass, and said in a low voice: "Don't drink it, you have a bad stomach." ”

His voice was really small, covered by laughter and music in the hall, and only Lin Jiahe could hear it.

He turned his head to look at him, his eyes becoming a little misty because of the wine, and he looked slightly surprised and confused.

"If you have anything to say later, Jiahe will drink first." Someone at the table spoke.

Wu Juezheng was a little embarrassed, and Cheng Yuzheng's voice sounded like a heavenly sound: "Being patronized by Guan Jiahe alone, everyone drinks together." ”

His words were quickly answered, and a table of people threw themselves into battle.

Wu Jue withdrew his hand a little sneeringly, turned his head to stop looking at Lin Jiahe, and drank the drink in his cup without taking care of himself.

Unexpectedly, Lin Jiahe really put down his wine glass and didn't take another sip.
