Chapter 378: Work hard this year and I’ll give you a bonus at the end of the year

Chen Jinyue did not refuse, but of course he did not agree either.

It was just that starting from the afternoon, I stayed with him every moment, and then we were busy preparing the New Year's Eve dinner together.

Night falls.

I don't know when it started to drizzle outside the window. The raindrops were slanting, making the night even more gentle.

The warm golden candlelight flickered gently, casting a layer of warm light on the outlines of both people. The red wine in the goblet shimmered, and the sizzling sound of steak added a touch of smoky flavor...

"Chen Jinyue, happy New Year's Eve."

The man picked up the wine glass, and his clear voice seemed particularly gentle at this moment.

At this moment, she was brought back to the atmosphere of last year.

Midnight.

Fireworks were blooming in the night sky, and on the other end of the phone, he was sending her his blessings on time, Happy New Year.

She suddenly couldn't help but ask, "Did you like me at this time last year?"

Zhou Yichuan paused for a moment, then said helplessly, "Is it hard to tell?"

Chen Jinyue thought about it and said, "Maybe I noticed it, but you always have a magical power. You can destroy all the touching moments and atmosphere with just one sentence."

Zhou Yichuan stared at her, without refuting or reflecting.

But it is a question with confidence.

"You saw everything, but you didn't keep me last year?"

“…”

Chen Jinyue was speechless and too lazy to answer his rude question.

At that time, nothing mattered. If she kept him, would he stay in the provincial capital?

She didn't know that if she stayed, Zhou Yichuan would really stay.

Some people are extremely stubborn.

But I'm also so soft-hearted...

After dinner.

The two of them snuggled up on the sofa, playing the Spring Festival Gala and sending New Year greetings on their mobile phones.

Chen Jinyue greeted Rong's family, partners, and professors.

As usual, she gave red envelopes to her best employees.

The profits this year are good and the red envelopes have doubled.

68888——

Everyone's reaction has changed significantly compared to last year.

But what remains unchanged is that it is still Yu Jianing who replies immediately.

Yu Jianing, [Sister Yue! My dear sister! Do you need me to play with you this year? Although my parents haven't abandoned me, and although you should have someone to accompany you, I'm still here whenever you call!]

Yu Jianing, [ps: I will never make the same stupid mistake as last year!]

Yu Jianing, [Engrave this sentence in your DNA: My sister is beautiful and rich, and her personal safety must be put first!]

Chen Jinyue looked at the series of messages, the vitality overflowing from the screen, and smiled.

Reply, [No, I have a man to accompany me, you should spend time with your family. ]

Yu Jianing, [Understood! Take protective measures! It's okay if you don't do it well, I'll learn how to take care of my baby right now!]

Chen Jinyue, [……]

Her face felt slightly hot, and she turned her head to glance at the person beside her.

Zhou Yichuan just happened to put down his phone and suddenly turned to her and said, "Mrs. Zhou, is it possible for me to be officially promoted next year?"

Chen Jinyue, "Hmm?"

"It doesn't matter if we don't make it official. You have to set aside time next year so we can have our honeymoon first."

"Okay, once the urgent matters are dealt with, we'll go."

In fact, she wanted to too.

Since the opening of the Space-Time Exchange, it has changed her destiny and kept her working non-stop for almost two years.

A lot has happened in the past two years, and her mentality has been up and down.

There wasn't much time to digest and rest.

Gotta make time to relax...

…

Throughout the Spring Festival, the newlyweds were in love and spent most of their time together.

Time flies, and it's time to go back to work in a blink of an eye.

On the first day of work, Chen Jinyue received a call from Secretary Peng.

She said that the food she wanted had almost been allocated. Cultivated land would be increased as appropriate, exports would be appropriately controlled, and a portion of the existing grain reserves would be allocated for her to mobilize at any time.

"I saw it on the news, and I guess that's why I want it. Thank you very much." Chen Jinyue thanked politely.

Secretary Peng said hurriedly, "Miss Chen, you're too polite. This is all I should do. I also want to thank you for your dedication to the country."

They obviously noticed it too.

Chen Jinyue took the initiative to speak to them, and in return he got what they wanted.

I guess they don't intend to make any profit from it.

To a certain extent, this has expressed her attitude.

"It should be. My grandfather said a long time ago that only when the country is good can we be good."

"Yes, we have always admired Mr. Rong's vision..."

Secretary Peng exchanged pleasantries for a while, seemingly explaining the progress to her and indicating that they were all ready.

In fact, I was asking openly and secretly whether there was any news.

Chen Jinyue had actually been planning to contact them once work was done, so when he mentioned it, he took the opportunity to ask, "Have you used up all the psychic crystals you got last time? Do you need them urgently?"

Secretary Peng heard this and said without hesitation, "Yes! That thing is a very critical step. It connects to brain waves and can drive weapons with consciousness! But if we want to mass-produce it, we need a lot of it."

Having said that, he paused and said proudly.

"I'm not afraid to let you in on a secret: a new weapon, 'successfully developed', will be unveiled next year. It'll be even more sensational than the mecha's debut..."

Chen Jinyue could guess that as the materials became complete, many weapons would be made public by the authorities.

It will also cause a very sensational effect.

But when I really heard the news, I still felt a sense of pride.

Especially proud.

She smiled and reassured him, "Then please take some time to come over. It's during the Spring Festival. I got some here, so I thought I'd contact you when I get to work."

Secretary Peng's voice unconsciously rose. "Okay! Tomorrow! I'll come over tomorrow!"

Mainly because I just resumed work and have some things to deal with today.

Otherwise he would have wanted to go there today.

"Okay, see you tomorrow then."

…

Zhou Yichuan also just received the news which was consistent with Chen Jinyue's.

The new robots can be sold, but because their appearance is so realistic, some adjustments must be made to avoid being confused with real people and causing unnecessary confusion and trouble.

Chen Jinyue frowned slightly when he heard him say this. "Our realism is one of our biggest advantages. Why do we have to specifically distinguish it?"

Zhou Yichuan explained, "Actually, we discussed this before the New Year. It is indeed necessary..."

The development of science and technology is gradual.

Without process support in the middle, it is easy to lose control of the direction.

Try to control your pace as much as possible.

"And we have made preparations in advance, so it's not a big problem." Zhou Yichuan's voice was calm and he was obviously very confident.

Chen Jinyue continued to ask, "Are you going to completely change the exterior? Replace this material?"

Zhou Yichuan shook his head. "Of course not. We'll try to preserve the advantages and only make minor adjustments in other areas. Don't worry, once the plan is finalized, I'll definitely let Boss Chen review it."

Chen Jinyue felt relieved after hearing this. He patted him on the shoulder and gave him earnest instructions.

"That's fine. Work hard this year and I'll give you a bonus at the end of the year."

"We'll do a good job tonight too."
