-Sweetie: Oh, okay then~
The other party was surprisingly easy to talk to, and then asked another question.
- Sweetie: Little brother, what are your hobbies?
Hobbies? Zhou Zhou thought for a moment when asked the question. Normally, he would have answered playing games without hesitation, but in this situation, Zhou Zhou hesitated for a moment.
I need to give some insightful answers.
- Zhou Zhou: Reading a book.
When the other end didn't reply for a while, Zhou Zhou started to think about it again. He felt that his reply seemed too rigid, so he finally added a message.
Zhou Zhou: And playing video games.
The message was sent and the other party replied instantly.
-Sweetie: Me too~
- Sweetie: What games do you usually play?
Zhou Zhou: Play them all.
- Sweetie: Wow, that little brother is awesome!
-Sweetie: Can you play with me? I'm so bad at this game...
Zhou Zhou: Either is fine.
Zhou Zhou: I go online promptly at 8 PM.
Zhou Zhou: Time to work, see you in the canyon tonight.
Having managed to find a common topic, Zhou Zhou forced himself to end the chat. It wasn't exactly lying to the other person; after a few days of slacking off, it was time for him to write something.
It's because his assets are still in the negative.
"Sigh." Life is tough, Zhou Zhou sighed.
"Sigh—" Fu Hengzhi had just finished handing over the follow-up project with his partner and was sitting in the back seat of the van when he sighed softly.
Her voice was very soft, but it was enough to alert He Qingqing, who was keenly observing her boss's every move.
"President, was there a problem with the contract we just discussed?"
He Qingqing, sitting in the passenger seat, leaned back, already taking out her notebook, ready to take notes at any moment. Just as she started writing, she heard her boss speak.
"Where do you see the difference between me and the vice president of Ye's Group?"
The question automatically translated into He Qingqing's ears as: the difference in corporate capabilities between the Ye family and the Fu family.
"Both the Fu and Ye families are top-tier family businesses in J City, with countless chain industries under their names. The Fu family focuses more on domestic development, with subsidiaries settling in major first-tier cities to form a new business network. In recent years, the Ye family has shown an intention to disperse its subsidiaries overseas, but regarding..."
"Not these."
He Qingqing's analysis was suddenly interrupted by the president, who then continued.
"I'm asking myself the difference between Ye Misheng and me."
"..." He Qingqing's pen slid across the paper, successfully skewing an arc on the record sheet.
He then looked at the president in the back seat, who was staring straight ahead with an indifferent gaze.
They were clearly waiting for me to answer their question.
He Qingqing knew very little about Ye Misheng, but she had investigated a lot of information about his elder brother Ye Qisheng.
Because back when the president's wife was still in the entertainment industry, she was a huge fan of actor Ye.
He Qingqing thought this was still a work-related issue, so based on the information about Ye Misheng that she had investigated for the company's recent cooperation needs, she began to make an official statement.
"Without a doubt, President, your business acumen far surpasses that of Vice President Ye, which is why the Fu family's profits from this project are ten percentage points higher than the Ye family's..."
What do you think of Ye Misheng?
"..." He Qingqing remained silent. She didn't understand why the other party was asking only one person. After thinking for a long time, she didn't know where to start and asked, "President, why...why do you ask this?"
He Qingqing dared not look her boss in the eye, feeling that the atmosphere around him suddenly dropped after she asked the question.
She was being insensible; how could she question her boss?
"Ye Misheng and Zhou Zhou have been getting very close lately."
“?” He Qingqing looked up, her eyes lighting up instantly.
The CEO is jealous!
"Then, what was Madam's reaction?" He Qingqing asked cautiously, suppressing her joy at shipping the couple.
“…Fair and just.” Fu Hengzhi couldn’t help but chuckle as he recalled how they had both tried to help each other up at noon, only to have their hands shaken off.
"President, your wife is definitely a sensible person. If there are any conflicts between husband and wife, they should talk them out in time. There must be trust between them." He Qingqing advised him to prevent a rift in their relationship. However, as a fan of the couple, she couldn't help but add, "Couples can make up in bed. Sometimes, adults can solve problems very well."
Fu Hengzhi gave an approving reply, "Very good."
The initial suggestions were reasonable, although some of the later ones were beyond the scope of the topic.
He Qingqing: "The Vice President of Ye's Group currently has no family and is unsupervised, so he does indeed indulge in some promiscuity in private. This may be unavoidable, but as long as you and your wife have a strong bond, these problems will be easily solved."
After saying this, He Qingqing felt like she wasn't a businessman.
Fu Hengzhi hummed in agreement, then turned to look out the window. The roadside was bustling and vibrant, with various brand chain stores and buildings in sight. Suddenly, Fu Hengzhi seemed to remember something and changed the driver's route.
"Don't go back to the company yet, go to the winery outside the city to pick up two bottles of wine."
The car window reflected Fu Hengzhi's sharply defined face, and at that moment, President Fu's lips curled into a slight smile.
Who says it's unavoidable?
The ward was dimly lit, with only the computer screen as a light source. The clatter of the keyboard accompanied Zhou Zhou's slender fingers typing rapidly. For some reason, Zhou Zhou was bursting with inspiration today—
Many people admire idols with high levels of education, and I am no exception. As I approached the transition from elementary to middle school, I was under immense pressure and immersed myself in the vast sea of books every day, absorbing the fragrance of knowledge from every inch of the pages.
My spirit was teetering on the brink of collapse, and at that time, I desperately needed a strong spiritual pillar.
God said, “Let there be light,” and there he appeared.
It was a leisurely time after dinner, and the three of us sat happily in front of the TV, watching variety shows.
The main guest is an actor with a stable career in the entertainment industry. He remained remarkably calm during the variety show quiz segment and won the top spot with his extensive knowledge.
In the face of questions and answers, he said that everything he achieved was through hard work. He reads a lot of books in his spare time because knowledge is endless and nothing can be accomplished overnight. His glamorous appearance is actually the result of going through many trials and tribulations in private.
This greatly shocked me, as I was under immense pressure to get into a good junior high school. I secretly vowed that once this episode of the variety show ended, I would start studying.
An idol is indeed an idol. When discussing his views on a famous work, he spoke with reason, evidence, and originality.
Just as I was about to clap, I heard my father yell in my ear.
"What the hell?! This is my paper published on KI!!"
Ha, this is the wall that collapsed the fastest for me.
...
-I've discovered a problem: why does the person you support always seem to fall from grace?
-Holy crap, the person upstairs is really creepy. Does that mean my brother Qi Sheng escaped a disaster?
-Thank you to the author, Prodigal Son Returns!
-Just wondering, who are you still a fan of?
-Holy crap, I think I know which paper it is, I cited it in my graduation thesis.
The novel garnered numerous comments immediately after its release, and the number of negative comments has visibly decreased, yet its popularity remains undiminished.
Zhou Zhou stretched his stiff neck, turned off the computer and cut off the light source, only then realizing that it was completely dark.
He reached his hand towards the bedside in the dark, and just as the light was turned on, the door was pushed open from the outside.
Familiar faces entered carrying familiar lunchboxes.
Fu Hengzhi met Zhou Zhou's gaze on the bed, paused slightly, and smiled apologetically, "I'm back late, I had some things to take care of. Are you hungry?"
“…It’s alright.” Zhou Zhou’s eyelids twitched, looking at the other person’s undisguised joy with some confusion.
What's making you so happy?
[Author's Note]:
No prize for guessing: What is Mr. Fu so happy about, and what kind of *** action will he take?
Chapter 45 If you can't handle it, tell your parents.
After nearly half a month of recuperation, Zhou Zhou was finally discharged from the hospital and returned to the Fu residence. Looking at herself in the mirror, she sighed.
The original owner had a strong ability to recover, as evidenced by the injury on her forehead last time. It's unclear whether this was due to her constitution or a benefit of being a transmigrator.
'Bang bang'
A knock sounded outside the bathroom door, accompanied by Fu Hengzhi's voice.
"I've put your clothes on the bed. Remember to change after you take a shower."
"no problem."
Zhou Zhou hadn't even started taking a shower yet. Actually, based on his recovery, he should have been discharged three days ago. However, Fu Hengzhi felt that it was too risky to discharge him so soon after such a serious injury, so he had him stay in the hospital for a few more days of observation. If it weren't for the fact that the Li family patriarch was holding a full-month celebration for his youngest son in early June, and the Fu family was going to visit him, Fu Hengzhi would have planned to have him stay in the hospital for another half month.
As the sound of running water in the bathroom stopped, Zhou Zhou, wearing a bathrobe, pushed open the bathroom door, and steam rose behind her. She saw Fu Hengzhi coming out of the dressing room and her eyes lit up.
"So handsome, Mr. Fu."
I've seen him in black suits so often lately, this is the first time I've seen him in clothes with such eye-catching details.
Zhou Zhou really likes clothes with decorations on the collar and cuffs.
Zhou Zhou's gaze fell unabashedly on Fu Hengzhi, full of admiration. Fu Hengzhi thought the other was looking at him and felt uncomfortable being stared at. He lightly coughed twice, covering his lips with his right hand, and pointed to the clothes neatly spread out on the bed, which were more than 85% similar to his own.
"This is yours."
Zhou Zhou walked over and was slightly taken aback when he saw the formal attire. He hesitated for a moment, then picked up the clothes and looked at them. After a moment of silence, he said, "This is... a couple's outfit?"
"I only found out about the designer's intentions after I received the clothes." Fu Hengzhi absolutely could not tell the other party that he had asked the designer to change the clothes into a couple's style when the finished product was about to be completed.
“Hmm.” Zhou Zhou didn’t suspect anything. After all, no matter what, the two of them were seen as a married couple by outsiders, and they needed some external things to support this persona.
