Chapter 6 A crisp knocking sound suddenly rang out in the silent office, and Xia Yu rolled up the document and gently...

A crisp knocking sound suddenly rang out in the silent office. Xia Yu rolled up the document and slammed it lightly on the table. He jumped up from his chair and glared at Chen Zheng angrily.

Chen Zheng raised her eyes slightly and tilted her head in confusion.

Under Shen Zheng's indifferent eyes, the momentum that Xia Yu had finally built up seemed to be doused with water, weakening a little.

She coughed lightly, frowned, pointed at the manuscript she had slapped on the table angrily, and stuttered a few words:

"Chen Zheng, you...how could you do this...a manuscript with so many words...how could I...I possibly memorize it. I can tell you are trying to make things difficult for me. Change it." Towards the end, she spoke more and more fluently, and felt more and more justified. She straightened her chest, raised her head high, and looked at Chen Zheng.

Chen Zheng put down the pen in his hand, his dark eyes fixed on the person in front of him, without saying a word.

Seeing this, Xia Yu's originally high spirits dimmed a little. She took a step back slightly, and her hands on the table unconsciously tapped the surface with her fingers.

Xia Yu said weakly in her mind, "Xiao Tongzi, did I go too far? She is silent. Is she angry?"

The system worked its brain full of data lines for a moment and analyzed rationally: "Well, it seems that the host is right when he puts it that way."

Chen Zheng was silent for a while, and seeing that Xia Yu had calmed down, she gently scolded, "Don't even think about it, do your work independently. Don't act like a spoiled child." But compared with her cold and ruthless teachings to the younger generations of the Shen family, her words now didn't sound like a scolding, but rather a reminder.

Xia Yu: “Ah?”

System: “Ah?”

The grinning cat's outstretched paw froze in mid-air, its big eyes staring blankly at the air for a while, and then, as if nothing had happened, it retracted its paw and proudly returned the same way it had come, following its cat steps.

Seeing Xia Yu lowering his head and scribbling on the paper, Chen Zheng sighed softly and walked to Xia Yu's side.

She lowered her eyes and gently touched the hair that had fallen on her cheeks. She tucked the strands of hair that were swaying with her breathing behind her ears, revealing her delicate and pretty profile.

"Nervous?"

Originally Xia Yu thought it was nothing, but when Chen Zheng asked her so gently, she pursed her lips, and her tense fingertips trembled slightly, as if there was indeed a little.

This was her first time to truly take charge of power. As the president, she came to the company to deal with the fraudulent finances, to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, and to completely leave her own mark on the company. Even if she had thousands of opportunities in the future, this was her first step.

Xia Yu rehearsed the process countless times in his mind. Enter the company aggressively, preemptively throw the fake financial report in their faces, call a shareholders meeting, and let all those who embezzled go.

But even though she knew all the procedures, she still had no idea. She silently asked herself in her heart. Would she really not mess up? Could she really handle the power with ease like her father and brother in the past, and like Chen Zheng now? She...

"This is not the President Xia I know. President Xia always holds his head high and is arrogant. Even if he is wrong, he will still stubbornly swallow all the bitterness and tears and will never admit defeat even if he dies." Chen Zheng quietly described her impression of Xia Yu, with a hint of tenderness flashing in her eyes.

"Chen Zheng, are you praising me or scolding me?" Xia Yu raised his eyes and retorted in a low voice.

The arrogance in her eyes rekindled, like two jumping flames, glittering and beautiful. All the doubts vanished under Shen Zheng's teasing and encouragement.

She was no worse than anyone else. She had read the books of sages since she was young and was proficient in archery and horse riding. Even though her spine was broken and she fell off a cliff, she stubbornly grasped the last bit of life and came into this world.

If she fails this time, there will be next time, and thousands and thousands of times. As long as she is not dead, nothing will count. There is always room for turning back. She must get it.

This time, Xia Yu was finally able to face the ambition that had been hidden deep in her heart for a long time and bravely hold it in her hands.

Chen Zheng looked at Xia Yu, who looked as majestic as if he had been reborn, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his lips.

Very good, I finally lived up to her teachings these days. What was the desire in her eyes and what was bound by it, Chen Zheng knew it better than anyone else.

It was a very illusory thing called ambition that had been suppressed for a long time and finally broke out like a blowout.

Now, even if Chen Zheng is no longer behind Xia Yu, it will lead her forward, climbing up step by step, never stopping.

Looking at Xia Yuchen Zheng was like seeing myself when I was little, except that I was not as lucky as her. It took me a long time to understand what she really wanted.

In the Shen family, a top-notch wealthy family with strict rules and etiquette, she was just unwilling at first. She was unwilling to accept that her brother, who was just the eldest son, could step on her head.

Chen Zheng took a step forward, opened his arms, hugged the girl in the air, and gently rubbed Xia Yu's fluffy head.

Xia Yu rarely struggled, and gently placed her head on her shoulder, letting the sandalwood wrap her up quietly. In the silent office, the only sound was the two people's heartbeats, beating endlessly, thump, thump.

Chen Zheng had rubbed her enough, and leaned her head to whisper in her ear encouragingly: "Don't worry, President Xia is wise and brave, and he will surely return victorious. I'll be waiting for good news from President Xia at home." After that, she took a step back and took back the hug.

Xia Yu was slightly stunned for a moment, then smiled and joked: "Chen Zheng, I didn't expect you to speak so nicely. I thought you only knew how to scold people."

Isn't it a common thing? She is not like her brother, the young master, who was born with everything, nor is she like the eldest grandson nephew who was born later, who was pampered and spoiled since birth and could get applause for everything he did.

When she is weak, she will greet people with a smile, be humble, and win over all the forces she can integrate. She will secretly watch for them like a poisonous snake, wait for the opportunity, and then swallow them up.

She could bend down and lower herself, but now she could also straighten her back and crush everything he owned with her own hands.

But there's no need to tell her about this little thing.

Chen Zheng smiled lightly, her brows relaxed like the spring breeze, and she asked softly: "Does Xiao Xia like it?"

"I like it." Chen Zheng's face was clearly reflected in Xia Yu's dark and bright eyes. He responded crisply with a bright and clean smile.

Just like it.

She can have many chances to fail, and she will cover her up. This is the privilege she gave her.

The system lay on its back in Xia Yu's spiritual sea, playing games leisurely while secretly sighing: "Ah, the relationship between the villain and the host is so good. They are really a perfect match."

Assistant Qin gently pushed open the door with a stack of documents in her arms, and what came into view was the scene of the two of them quietly hugging each other. She was stunned for a moment, then gently closed the door and stood guard at the door dutifully.

But her face was three parts bewilderment, four parts doubt, and five parts puzzlement. Was this part of the plan? How could she not know?

Chen Zheng sat in the office, a bunch of jumping words appeared on the computer screen, but she couldn't read it. She was still thinking about the hug just now. Why didn't she know before that hugging with others was so comfortable. Soft, want to hug tighter.

At night, in the main hall of the Xia family's house, Chen Zheng leaned on the sofa, looking down at the documents, while Assistant Qin sat beside him, typing a bunch of words on the computer, and reported to Chen Zheng one by one. Chen Zheng cleared the area.

Chen Zheng leaned over to pour a cup of tea and placed it in front of Assistant Qin, then clasped her hands across her chest, tapping her arms irregularly with her slender fingers as she thought quietly.

After Assistant Qin spoke for a long time without interruption, he drank the tea without hesitation and said, "Oh, by the way, Mr. Shen, it seems that someone from the Shen family has infiltrated the Xia family. Now I don't know which side they are from. Do you want me to clean them up?"

"No need. If we handle everything, the child won't get any exercise and will never grow up." Chen Zheng shook her head lightly, obviously not intending to interfere in other people's housework.

Assistant Qin glanced at Chen Zheng again inadvertently, but still couldn't figure out what she thought of Xia Yu.

You can't really bring yourself into the role of a fake stepmother! Just kidding, even if her maternal love is overflowing, Chen Zheng won't be overflowing with maternal love.

"Chen Zheng! Chen Zheng!" A clear and excited voice came from not far away, instantly breaking the silence around.

Xia Yu waved vigorously at Chen Zheng from a distance, and then jumped towards them.

"Really? You're so grown up, but you're not steady at all." Chen Zheng shook her head slightly.

Mr. Shen, can you please put away the smile on your face before you say this? Don't you look like you're enjoying it?

Xia Yu rushed towards Chen Zheng like a firecracker. Chen Zheng smiled and opened his arms, without shaking at all, and caught her directly.

"Chen Zheng! I did it, I did it!"

"As soon as I arrived at the company, I took the initiative and convened a board meeting with great momentum. I threw the evidence in front of them and immediately asked them to pack up and leave. For a moment, the whole place was silent, and everyone was trembling under my overwhelming momentum. I still remember clearly the green faces of those old guys."

Xia Yu kept talking incessantly and gesticulating as he talked about his achievements.

Chen Zheng lowered his head and listened quietly, his right hand subconsciously wrapped around her shoulders, holding her in his arms, and occasionally hummed with a smile.

"Well done. You must be hungry after being busy for so long. I'll ask Butler Liu to bring the menu."

Assistant Qin, who had been completely ignored since Xia Yu came in, was stunned for a moment, then silently packed up the documents and walked out.

As soon as she saw Chen Zheng's smiling eyes with her head down, she understood everything. What plans or no plans were involved? It was that Mr. Shen, who had never understood romance and had never been in love, had fallen in love with the girl because his old house caught fire.

Moreover, Mr. Shen seemed to be unaware of it himself.

Is she hiding it, or is she hiding it, or is she hiding it? It's been a long time since I saw Chen Zheng, who has gradually become calm and indifferent in recent years, doing such embarrassing things. Hehehe.
