Zeng Ziqian spoke to me in an awkward tone, I looked at the expression on his face and teased: "You don't like married women, right?" It's an amazing taste. ”

Zeng Ziqian glared at me and said, "What if I say so." ”

When I didn't know Zeng Ziqian at the beginning, Yang Heng and I were ready to get married, and I was a playboy who didn't understand and hooked up with a married woman, which can still be said in the past, and I have been with Zeng Ziqian for so long, and I know very well that he is not this kind of person.

"Don't say it's love at first sight, I don't believe it."

Zeng Ziqian sighed slightly and said, "Yuan Xiaojie, I have liked you for many years. ”

Obviously, it was me who was drinking, but Zeng Ziqian was a little drunk, and I gently rubbed my eyes to make sure that I was not dreaming.

"Zhao Yang said that the only thing you and I have in common is stubbornness, I didn't notice it before, but now it's getting clearer and clearer, I know that I have indeed wronged you in the past few years, because there are too many uncertain factors around me, I want to give you a home, but in the end you were forced out of that home," Zeng Ziqian stared at me and said: "Our family environment is different, so when we decide to communicate with each other for a long time, we will always be affected by external factors, and I also thought that after having Lele, my mother may accept you without hesitation." …… You don't have to take my mother's words to heart, she and my dad are the most typical marriages for profit, so she may not know what she likes in her life. ”

Listening to Zeng Ziqian's words, my tears poured out involuntarily, and said: "I'm worried that we will quarrel, I don't want to see these intrigues after Lele is sensible." ”

"I understand, and I understand your self-esteem," Zeng Ziqian took a breath and said, "Xiaojie, I live downstairs from you, including me, I have never been able to let go of you, there is only one reason, I care about you." ”

"Look at me......" I wiped away my tears and said, "Talk to you well, what are you crying about......"

"You take this," Zeng Ziqian said this, handing me an invitation card, "I know you need time to think about some things, so there are some things I want to tell you when you think about it, and if you think about it, come here to find me." ”

I took the invitation card handed by Zeng Ziqian, glanced at him suspiciously, and heard him say, "Go up, it's too cold." ”

"What about you?"

"I'll leave when you see you go up." Zeng Ziqian's gaze fell on my stockings and said, "This kind of thing will be worn less in the future." ”

I nodded and said, "Why don't you go first?" ”

"Go," Zeng Ziqian waved his hand and said, "I'll catch a cold in a while." ”

I listened to Zeng Ziqian's words and walked back, glanced back at him, the scene from a few years ago suddenly flashed in front of my eyes, and that heart-warming feeling seemed to come back in an instant.

As soon as I got on the elevator, I opened the invitation card and my name came to my eye.

"Little Princess Yuan Xiaojie, the train to 5201314 will depart at 22 o'clock in the evening of January 16th, are you ready?"

Signed, your Mr. Zeng.

I looked at the small card with a unique design on my phone, and I couldn't help laughing, counting the days, it was the night after tomorrow. Zeng Ziqian's sentence "I have liked you for many years" seemed to pull me to the starting point of our acquaintance, and once again ignited the flame of hope in my heart.

In the past few days, although I have strongly restrained my inner weakness, pretended to be strong, and told myself that even if I can't be with him, I have to work hard and give Lele the best life, in the final analysis, it is because I see the gap between me and Zeng Ziqian, I can't accept Zeng's mother's provocations again and again, I can't accept that she still wants to pass me after passing Wang Luoqi, and she also wants to match Zhou Ruxue's thoughts, however, at this moment I understand that even so, I still love this man.

Loving a man who hides a secret, from the beginning, I felt very unreliable, but I still came over, and I can understand from all the details of Zeng Ziqian that this man treats me sincerely, at this time, should I let go of the so-called self-esteem and try to unravel this layer of frost between me and my great-mother?

Some of Zeng's mother's attitudes are from the bones, I have made efforts, but I am more worried that Lele will become a victim of our fight, compared to a materially stable family, warm and harmonious, is the best environment for a child to grow up, because of Wang Luoqi's matter, I once lost confidence in the relationship between me and Zeng Ziqian, so I didn't want to try how to communicate with Zeng's mother, the fatigue period made me tired, but all this is not Zeng Ziqian's fault.

I suddenly realized my selfishness, at least, my contest with my great-mother tortured a man who loved me and Lele in disguise.

In the midst of this thought, I fell asleep, but I was still awake for one thing - if I wanted to live peacefully with my great-mother, I had to improve my ability to withstand and withstand pressure.

After going to the company the next day, I told Xiaobai about it, and after Xiaobai heard me say this, he said with a smile: "As far as I know, Zeng Ma has been able to bring Zeng Ziqian so well for so many years and can take care of Hengyu up and down, this woman is not simple, you are not an opponent." ”

"That's what I thought before."

"If you want Zeng Ziqian to persuade Zeng's mother to leave, I think it's relatively unlikely, after all, Lele is here, and Zeng's mother is absolutely impossible to leave for the sake of the Zeng's incense issue," Xiaobai looked at me and said, "This means that you may have friction when it comes to food, clothing, housing and transportation, down to the worldview and outlook on life and values, are you sure you want to challenge a mother-in-law with such a high difficulty factor?" ”

"I don't know about these problems, so after Zeng's mother made a little trick, I hurriedly escaped," I looked at Xiaobai and said, "Zeng Ziqian and Zhou Ruxue had dinner together the day before yesterday, and it was also arranged by Zeng's mother." ”

"This old lady is very interesting, her son wants it, her grandson wants it, and she wants to find a stepmother for Lele...... said that I couldn't understand," Xiaobai looked at me and said, "It's okay for you to come to work, in case one day Zeng's mother chooses a legal weapon, we can also say that we have a stable job and financial support." ”

I was so frightened by Xiaobai, I was really a little afraid, and then said with a smile: "Since I am not my opponent of my great-mother in IQ and EQ, then use my heart, you look at my little mother, it used to be money when she opened her mouth and closed her mouth, but now that Yuan Xiaohao is back, she mutters and hugs her grandson every day, and the concept of money has also diluted a lot." ”

Xiaobai nodded, took my hand, and said, "Xiaojie, be brave, you have come over Wang Luoqi's hurdle, think about this female nerve, just treat it as a monster, okay?" ”

I smiled and said, "I came out of the drinking party that day, and I didn't ask how you and Zhao Yang were doing......

A trace of shyness flashed on Xiaobai's face, and he said, "What else, he can still escape the old lady's Five Finger Mountain." ”

Although Zhao Yang seems to be attentive on the surface, it is obvious that he is serious about Xiaobai.

After the emotional matter is discussed, I have to continue to work hard, Xiaobai's words reminded me that even if I have to have a protracted psychological battle with my great-mother, I can't lose my job, and I have to do a good job.

I am still responsible for the activities of "Australia One Week Tour" launched by Hengshang Bank at the end of the year, Zhou Hengyi seems to be a little unkempt, but the work is really clear to the company, and this activity is to cooperate with a more famous travel agency in the city, not only to show some of the advantages of Hengshang Bank, but also to drive the business of travel agencies, which is undoubtedly a challenge for me. No, other colleagues are preparing New Year's goods or something, and I have to go to Hengshang Building in person.

Zhou Hengyi did not come forward in person, came to talk to me was a person in charge of the travel agency, this person from one o'clock began to talk about how good their travel agency is, by the way to me did an advertisement, until three o'clock, there is no sign of stopping, I heard that tour guides need to be eloquent and excellent, I have seen it today.

After a cup of coffee, the person in charge of the travel agency was about to talk again, I glanced at the time, and suddenly felt helpless, it happened that the office door opened, I glanced at the door, but saw Zhou Hengyi standing there with a calm face, and said: "I'm sorry, I'm delayed in dealing with some official business, how are you talking?" ”

The person in charge of the travel agency immediately stood up and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhou, Miss Yuan's comprehension ability is very strong, and we have almost talked about it." ”

I couldn't help but smile and thought to myself, shouldn't this man praise me for my ability to listen?

Zhou Hengyi handed me a stack of documents and said, "These are the major features of Hengshang holding this event, you can see if it can inspire you." ”

I looked at the document in front of me, and although I was a little dissatisfied, I still smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll take it back and take a look." ”

"This time the time is tight," Zhou Hengyi looked at me, looked at his watch again, and said, "Why don't we discuss and discuss together?" ”

The person in charge of the travel agency glanced at me, then looked at Zhou Hengyi, and said, "Mr. Zhou, I'm sorry, I made an appointment with Mr. Lin from Dahua today......

"If you have something to do, go get busy...... Zhou Hengyi said, and was about to send the person in charge away, then looked back at me and said, "You can read the information first, and we will discuss it later." ”

Seeing that it's time to get off work, is Hengyi deliberately making things difficult for me this week?

When I first came to Hengshang Building, I had a feeling that it was too deserted here, everyone was doing their work honestly, and it was even difficult for me to see colleagues joking, and the muscles on each of their faces were similar to Zhou Hengyi's, typical facial paralysis.

So I have to sigh, what kind of boss there is, what kind of employees there are.

However, the content of the advertisement still has to be solved, both come and be safe, I simply lowered my head and began to read the information, in more than an hour after I read the information, except for the little secretary came to bring me two cups of coffee, there was no disturbance, which gave me a good working environment.

At half past five, I listed my preliminary thoughts on the computer, and was about to send them to Zhou Hengyi, but he entered the conference room, I glanced at him, and said, "Mr. Zhou, I just sent the content of this advertisement to your mailbox, you can take a look." ”

Zhou Hengyi looked at me, looked at the time again, and said, "I'm hungry, can I talk while eating?" ”

"It's only past five o'clock."

"I didn't eat at noon," Zhou Hengyi looked at me and said, "Let's go, if I'm hungry again, my stomach hurts." ”

On the way to the restaurant, I learned that there is a kind of boss who never eats takeout, in Zhou Hengyi's words, the most delicious time for food is when it is just out of the pot, once there is a time gap, the deliciousness of the food will be lost.

I didn't speak, we wage earners who often work overtime can't appreciate such a high taste of life in Zhou Hengyi's mouth.

Of course, delicious food has always been very expensive, as can be seen in the restaurant we are in now.

The restaurant is more private, it looks large from the outside, but the distance between each table is very long, as if there is no need to consider the problem of saving space in the restaurant, and each table has a screen-like baffle, making it difficult to see the situation of other dining customers.

Zhou Hengyi used the tablet to check the information I sent in the past, and then ordered the food familiarly, I only needed a glass of lemonade, and then heard him say: "You have to change this plan for at least two hours, let's eat something to fill your stomach." ”

Is this the rhythm that directly tells me to work overtime?

Anyway, you don't have to pay for me, it's okay to eat two bites, right?

I ordered pan-fried cod and foie gras, and then I heard Zhou Hengyi ask for a bottle of wine.

I was wary, pretending to be unaware and continuing to read the information, and after a while, the waiter came over with a plate, really chatting while eating.

Zhou Hengyi means that the advertising should first consider the proportion of tourism and banking services, I am somewhat disdainful in my heart, after all, it is the cooperation between Hengshang and travel agencies, and whoever has a high proportion in the advertisement will take advantage.

Merchants are profit-heavy.

Zhou Hengyi heard that I didn't drink, and I didn't force it much, I poured myself a drink, but he drank freely, because of the discussion, a meal was eaten for nearly two hours, and when it came to the proportion of the advertisement, Zhou Hengyi's answer surprised me: "If you have to set the proportion, three or seven points." Travel content seven, our content three. ”

"Mr. Zhou, you are helpful." Forgive me for the sarcasm in this statement.

Zhou Hengyi has a treacherous and cunning eyes, but he can't see any emotion on his face, listening to me say this, he is not angry, but he said: "Sometimes, in an advertisement, it is not whose proportion is significant, who will benefit more, compared to some welfare services launched by the bank, you can travel to Australia for free to be more attractive, if a travel video is shot well, it will naturally guide the customer's deep yearning, yearning, only have the concept of consumption, want to spend money, naturally will eliminate a part of the customer group, but, when yearning can be free, you say, will it be a surprise? ”

I looked at Zhou Hengyi dumbfounded, I didn't know why this man was so frank.

"AIDMA Concept." Zhou Hengyi said word by word, "Is my use good?" ”

I picked up the lemonade and looked away, avoiding Zhou Hengyi's eyes. Well, I'll admit, this businessman is treacherous, but he's also honestly unobnoxious.

After the waiter cleaned up the plate, I put the notebook on the dining table, changed the plan according to Zhou Hengyi's request, and then clicked on it and said, "Mr. Zhou, please check it." ”

Zhou Hengyi's cheeks were slightly red, he got up and walked around the table, and then stood beside me, bent down, and asked, "Where?" ”

I glanced at him and said, "In your mailbox." ”

Zhou Hengyi's eyes fell on my face and said, "Wouldn't it be faster for me to look at it like this?" ”

I moved the notebook to the side and moved it in front of him and said, "Look." ”

Zhou Hengyi sat next to me, stared at the notebook for a while, and said, "In general, there is no problem, and the details need to be slightly modified." ”

"Yes."

Sensing Zhou Hengyi's eyes, I rolled my eyes directly, and then heard him say, "Not a vase?" ”

"Mr. Zhou......"

Zhou Heng's eyes suddenly revealed a look called seriousness, I suddenly had a bad premonition, and the next second, his hand suddenly fell on my face, and then, his lips were on my lips.

The time when my brain was blank was only two seconds, I stood up suddenly, stared at Zhou Hengyi, and slapped me without hesitation.

After the "snap", there was also a pain in my fingers, and I quickly stuffed the notebook into my bag, stared at Zhou Hengyi viciously, and said, "Shameless." ”

Zhou Hengyi's eyes were surprised when he was beaten, and when he heard me scold him, he didn't get angry, but looked at me with a smile and said, "I'm shameless." ”

"Zhou Hengyi, you look like a human, I didn't expect it to be a well-dressed beast, so let's do it, this cooperation ends here, I hope we won't see each other again in the future," I walked around the table, walked two steps and turned my face, glared at Zhou Hengyi, and said, "Despicable." ”

I didn't notice the cold until I got out of the restaurant, because I was in too much hurry, and my coat was left in the restaurant, so I thought about going back to get it, and after thinking about it, I hailed a taxi and rushed directly to my mother's residence.

After calming down downstairs for a while, I came back to my senses, and my right hand was trembling.

Now that I think about it, I am really naïve, thinking that at least Zhou Hengyi will maintain respect for his partners, and now it seems that he is no different from the shameless people of Mr. Huang and Mr. Liu.

I went upstairs to see Lele, the little guy has been much closer to the old Yuan Xiaoma's relationship in the past two days, everything is very adaptable, and under the guidance of Yuan Xiaohao, he will play with the children's phone on the table.

The gloom in his heart dissipated because of Lele's smile, and he returned to his residence with Lele in his arms, and the little one kept being happy, and he slowly fell asleep at ten o'clock.

The next morning, I called Xiaobai, did not indicate the problem, but I was afraid that Xiaobai would be difficult to do, so I simply moved Lele out as a shield, and the doorbell rang after a while, and what I didn't expect was that it was Zeng's mother who was standing at the door.

Zeng's mother glanced at me, and then her eyes fell on Lele's body, and she walked straight to the house, I hurriedly went to the kitchen to make tea, and the back came up.

Lele and this grandmother are not close, Zeng's mother teased him with a toy, he didn't pay much attention to it, which made Zeng's mother a little embarrassed, she looked at me and said: "This house is so small, the furniture is still so fitting, Lele has just learned to walk, unstable, in case of bumping into it, it is also troublesome." ”

"Usually my parents bring it."

"Your parents?" Zeng's mother showed a look of disgust on her face, and said: "Xiaojie, I didn't say you, how important the child's growth environment is, if you are busy with work, you can take the child to me, at least the food and drink will not be bad." ”

I turned my back to my great-mother, and when I heard her words, I suddenly felt irritable, and then said, "Auntie, I will take care of Lele." ”

"Lele has tender skin now, look at this shirt, it's not cotton......"

"Aunt," I thought about the previous contest with Zeng's mother, and simply said straight to the point: "I know that you are dissatisfied with me, and I also know that no matter how hard I try, I am still a few streets away from the daughter-in-law in your mind, so I moved out of Zeng's house, I am not your opponent in terms of ability, but I am worthy of Lele and Zeng Ziqian, aunt, you are so smart, have you ever thought about what Zeng Ziqian really needs?" ”

My mother looked at me with a shocked face, and she didn't speak.

"My parents can't give Lele the best thing, but I still feel at ease to hand over Lele to them, because as Lele's mother, I know that what Lele needs is companionship and play, what about me? Try to work as hard as possible, I can't guarantee that everything given to him is the best, but it's all my heart," I looked at Zeng's mother and continued: "So, when you dislike me, can you consider Zeng Ziqian's feelings. ”

"I don't care ......about Ziqian," Zeng's mother looked at me and said: "His father left early, everything is pressed on me as a woman, if I don't care, where does Ziqian have the current achievements, Hengyu's burden is his responsibility, he can't throw it away, it is because I know how much pressure a person can support Hengyu, so I want to find someone to share with him, the old guys on the board of directors seem to be friendly, and they all covet the shares in our hands behind their backs, and when I leave, Ziqian is equivalent to fighting alone." , if there is no backup, sooner or later...... How could the Zeng family's foundation for so many years fall into the hands of others? ”

This is the first time I have had a heart-to-heart relationship with my great-mother, and as a mother, I can understand, but I can't understand it.

"Auntie, you have your ideas, I have my insistence," I looked at my great-mother and said, "I'm sorry, I may have disappointed you." ”

After closing the door, I went to see Lele and saw that he had a card in his hand, so I walked over, however, the invitation card sent by Zeng Ziqian was still torn in half.

At 22 o'clock tonight, what will Zeng Ziqian say to me?

It was already seven o'clock in the evening when I sent Lele to Lao Yuan, and after returning home, I changed my clothes and put on light makeup, standing in front of the mirror, I curled the corners of my mouth and immediately laughed.

I was horrified when I didn't make it clear to my great-mother, but after confessing to each other, I was much more relaxed, and after opening the mailbox, I received an email from Zhou Hengyi, and there were only three words on the email: I'm sorry.

I didn't hesitate to click delete.

At nine o'clock, I took the bus from home, and when I arrived at the Caesar Hotel, it was already 20 minutes later, and the waiter looked at me with a shocked face after hearing Zeng Ziqian's name, and asked, "Is it Mr. Zeng who booked the top floor?" ”

I nodded, and then the waiter asked me curiously, "May I ask who you are?" ”

"Yuan Xiaojie."

The waiter nodded, and then handed me a door card, with doubts in his eyes, too, everyone who came to Caesar Hotel was either rich or expensive, and there were definitely not a few people who had seen Zeng Ziqian, but they had never seen Zeng Ziqian and Yuan Xiaojie together.

I got on the elevator with the door card, pressed the top floor directly, and after a while, the elevator opened, and I stepped out of the elevator with a high heel and exhaled softly.

In addition to the star standard, another important reason why Caesars Hotel is so famous in the city is its top floor.

The top floor resembles a planetarium, arched, surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows and flowers, and is definitely a romantic first choice - I flashed these words in my mind and took a soft breath.

The heel of my shoe hit the floor with the "knock knock" echoed my heartbeat, and according to the instructions on the top floor, I nervously walked to the main entrance, surrounded by small flashing colored lights, extremely beautiful, my eyes stayed on a piano in the room, curiously looked twice, and then, I saw another scene.

In the glass room, she kissed him, the man lay on the sofa, and the woman half-knelt beside him.

That face seems familiar, if I'm not mistaken, she should be, Zhou Ruxue.

I stood in place in a panic, and it took me a while to react, and I walked directly towards the main entrance with my room card, and when I walked to the front door, I was stopped by the waiter.

"Excuse me, may I ask you ......"

"Open the door." I put my fingers in my palms and said, "Open the door right away." ”

The waiter was frightened by my momentum, looked at me hesitantly, and said, "Sorry, the customer has orders not to enter." ”

"I have a key card, can you handle it?"

When the waiter saw that I was about to break in, he immediately called the security guard, and in an instant, I was pulled to the elevator entrance, and it was not until I reached the lobby on the first floor that the manager on duty rushed over, and they let go of me.

The manager on duty looked at me and asked, "This young lady, may I ask which room are you from?" ”

I was furious and said, "Top floor." ”

The manager on duty looked at me with a puzzled look and said, "Do you know who booked the top floor?" ”

I was anxious and angry, and said, "Zeng Ziqian, you let me go up." ”

I was about to leave, but the waiter went to pull me up, and I heard the manager on duty say, "I'm sorry young lady, I might have to trouble you to go to the security room." ”

"Why?"

"We suspect that you are violating the privacy of your customers."

"I ......"

"Stop!" A voice came, scolding the security guard beside me, I turned my head, and saw Zhou Hengyi standing behind me.

ps: Continue to work overtime, only one shift.
