Chapter 3: The Origin of the Jade Pendant (Revised Version)

Looking at the food on the table, she couldn't help laughing: "Mom, there are only two of us, wouldn't it be a waste for you to make such a sumptuous meal and not finish it?" ”

Zhang Hong smiled: "It's not that as soon as you come back, I added two dishes with excitement, or I learned it recently, you can try it." ”

When Zhang Maru heard this, he rubbed his hands and looked salivating: "Then I'm welcome!" ”

She picked up the chopsticks, took one of the dishes, put it in her mouth, tasted it for a while, showed a look of amazement on her face, stretched out her white hand, and gave a thumbs up: "It is worthy of my mother, the craftsmanship is as good as ever!" ”

"Alright, don't be poor! How did you talk about this collaboration? ”

Although Zhang Hong stopped her praise, her looming eyebrows were raised high, which was obviously very useful.

"Anxinla, as soon as your daughter comes out, she can win anything."

Zhang Maru gave a smile.

I don't know why, I can't seem to be happy talking to anyone outside, but when I come back here and see the person in front of me, I feel that I am really Zhang Maru, and my mood is half better.

"By the way, Mom, have you ever seen my jade pendant?"

Zhang Maru didn't forget to get down to business, took out the jade pendant from her chest and asked her mother.

Zhang Hong observed carefully, and after a while, he shook his head: "I don't know what you're wearing." ”

She seemed to have thought of something: "Ru'er, could it be that you have suitors, and they sent you?" ”

Zhang Maru didn't expect this, she was a little surprised in her heart, she was silent on the surface, and only changed the topic: "Dear mother, don't think about it, let's eat!" ”

Zhang Maru thought while eating, could it really be sent by the suitor? But it doesn't make sense that the other party doesn't send it in the shade, but puts it on her unconsciously, isn't this a bamboo basket to draw water?

After the meal, she packed up the dishes and chopsticks as usual and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.

"Mom, just finished eating, you go to the living room to sit down and watch TV, and I'll do the rest."

She couldn't refuse to push her mother to sit in the living room, and continued to go back to the kitchen to make a fuss.

Seeing her daughter's insistence, Zhang Hong obediently watched the TV, she remembered that she hadn't taken something, so she went back to the room.

"Huh? How did Ru'er's room get so tidy? ”

Zhang Hong passed by her daughter's room, because the door was not closed, everything came into view, neat and tidy, and even her daughter's favorite headtag was very clean, and she felt a little strange.

Turning around and moving to the kitchen, I looked at the busy figures inside, and wanted to ask something, but finally shut up and went back to the living room to watch TV.

Zhang Maru cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks and watched TV with her mother, and the time passed quickly, and it was more than nine o'clock in a blink of an eye.

"Mom, it's not early, let's rest early."

"Okay, you too, don't be too late, although work is important, health should not be neglected!"

Zhang Hong got up and told her daughter earnestly.

Zhang Maru smiled: "Okay~ I must rest early, good night dear mother~"

After some goodnight concern, the two went back to their rooms.

Zhang Maru sat on the desk in the room, picked up her mobile phone and asked all the people around her who had been in contact recently, but she didn't know what it was.

The uneasiness in Zhang Maru's heart became more and more intense, so how did this thing come to her?

She had just finished a business trip, and she didn't have the energy to continue thinking about it at the moment, so she took off her tiredness, slowly climbed into bed, covered the quilt, and fell asleep with a soft pillow.

"Zhang Maru, live well for me! Avenge me! Avenge! ”

"Zhang Maru, I have only one mother left, can you take good care of her for me?"

"Zhang Maru, you are me, I am you."

"Zhang Maru, why are you occupying my body? I hate you, I hate you!! ”

"Ah!!!h

In her sleep, Zhang Maru felt as if she had fallen into the abyss, and a group of people dragged her vigorously to prevent her from moving.

"Cher, don't be afraid, it's me." She felt a golden light rise all around her, warm.

"Who are you? Who is Cher? Are you talking? ”

Zhang Maru asked loudly in the air, but no one replied to her.

"Who the hell am I?" She hung her head and muttered, very lonely.

At the same time, the jade pendant on her chest actually flashed with a strange light, forming a golden air current, which slowly poured into Zhang Maru's body. A pattern looms behind the left ear, perhaps due to lack of strength or other reasons, but after a moment of appearance, as the golden light disappears, the pattern also disappears, as if nothing happened.

The sleeping man did not have the expression of pain and struggle before, but there were pearl tears that slipped down his temples and into his ears, his hands clenched into fists, and his mouth muttered as he did not know what to say.

After a while, as if nothing happened, he fell into a deep sleep.

Following

Zhang Maru got up as usual, she felt that she was sore, as if she had fallen apart, and couldn't help but wonder, is her sleep so bad? It felt like a fight outside.

Looking at the clock on the desk, it was half past eight, and it was time to go to work.

After packing up and preparing to go out, I saw that my mother was not there, so I guessed that I should have gone to square dance and hadn't come back yet.

At home, Zhang Maru rarely sees her mother in the morning, only knowing that breakfast is set on the table every morning, which is nutritious and not difficult to bring. She picked up her breakfast and her briefcase as usual, and headed for the office with the keys.

After arriving at the company, she always felt that her colleagues looked at her strangely, so she didn't guess too much and went straight to her office.

"Director Zhang, Mr. Li is looking for you."

The first time the assistant Xiao Chen saw Zhang Maru, he rushed over to walk side by side with her and informed her of his intentions.

Zhang Maru's calm eyes flashed slightly, but his footsteps did not stop, "Got it." Is there anything on schedule for today? ”

Xiao Chen pushed the frame of his glasses, and a clear voice sounded: "This afternoon, Mr. Jin has a dinner, and Mr. Lin has an appointment to meet and discuss cooperation." ”

Zhang Maru nodded slightly, walked towards another office.

At the door of the general manager's office, after Zhang Maru knocked on the door and heard the answer inside, he pushed open the door and walked in, sat down directly, put down the briefcase in his hand, looked up and asked: "Mr. Li, what are you looking for me?" ”

Mr. Li sat on the office chair, and when he saw that it was Zhang Maru, he leaned back on the chair, turned slightly sideways, squinted at her, and seemed dissatisfied with her behavior of sitting down without saying hello. "I heard that this cooperation failed?"

He reached out and picked up the hand-ground coffee on the table, pinched the spoon in one hand and stirred it slowly, his dark eyes were unfathomable, looking at the coffee in his hand lightly, there seemed to be anger on his slightly fat copper-colored face, and there seemed to be a smile, pulling words that were not yin or white.

"Mr. Li is relieved that although the cooperation has failed, there are also surprises."

"Oh?" His hand holding the spoon stopped stirring, and his vermilion mouth took a slight sip of coffee, and there was a twinkle in his eyes.

Zhang Maru picked up the briefcase on the side, took out a document from it, got up and put it in front of Mr. Li, and then sat down.

"This is a letter of intent from X Group, and this project is currently better than the previous one. The company can achieve the greatest benefits and win-win situation. I am already finalising the details of the contract with the other party and will let you know when there is progress. ”

Mr. Li's eyes flickered, with a hint of surprise and playfulness, put down the coffee in his hand, picked up the documents on the table unhurriedly, and put them down after a cursory look, but still did not face Zhang Maru, only put one hand on the side of the table, and kept knocking on the office desktop next to the documents.

It took a long time before he spoke, "Yes, turn the tide." ”

Zhang Maru breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the matter was over.
