Last time around, when Zhou Sui was taken back to the city by her wealthy parents at the age of eighteen, she thought her life was about to change.
But her timid, submissive nature and consta...
On her first day back at work, Zhou Sui heard the young women in the office talking about how Zhou Peng had been seen with a beautiful woman the past two days.
If this were someone else's business, I might not be interested, but since it's Zhou Peng's, she's extremely interested, given how many people in his family are concerned about his marriage.
The meeting had just ended when Zhou Sui threw her notebook into her office and rushed into Zhou Peng's office.
The two companies were located next to each other, and everyone knew about the siblings' relationship, so Zhou Peng's office was easy for Zhou Sui to come and go from.
Just as Zhou Peng reached out to shut down his computer, the office door suddenly slammed open, startling him so much that he pulled his hand back.
"Did I scare you?" Zhou Sui walked in with a smile, just like she always did.
If there were people in Zhou Peng's office normally, her assistant would let her in before she entered. It's only because there was no one in the office that she dared to come in so boldly.
Zhou Peng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, he was really startled, thinking that Tang Jia had come again, because Tang Jia's visits had almost always been like this.
"No," Zhou Peng said before getting up and shutting down the computer. "How have you been these past few days?"
Because the company received several orders, he had to work overtime on the weekend; otherwise, he would have gone out to play with them.
"It's alright." Zhou Sui pulled out the chair in front of her desk and asked gossipily.
"Brother, I heard you've had a beautiful woman with you these past few days?"
Zhou Peng doesn't have any women actively appearing around him. Although the two don't see each other every day, they meet two or three times a week. Zhou Sui has never heard him mention any woman.
"What beauty?" Zhou Peng asked Zhou Sui, but he immediately thought of Tang Jia.
Then he rubbed his forehead helplessly, "Miss Tang is just too enthusiastic."
He couldn't find any adjectives to describe it, so he could only use "enthusiastic".
Zhou Sui never expected that this beauty was actually Tang Jia.
These two have gone so far as to call the police. When will their relationship improve and they go out for a meal together?
"You guys?" Zhou Sui leaned her upper body on the table, her eyes full of curiosity.
Before she could finish speaking, Zhou Peng placed his finger on her forehead, signaling her to be quiet.
"We have nothing; they just invited me to dinner."
"Besides, Miss Tang only had dinner with me to inquire about Qi An, so don't overthink it."
Despite the simplicity of the sentence, Zhou Sui immediately grasped its key point.
So Tang Jia likes Song Qi'an?
That's not the main point. The main point is the tone of Zhou Peng's voice just now.
Zhou Sui noticed a slight awkwardness in his tone, but she couldn't figure out why.
"Okay." Zhou Sui lowered her eyelids in disappointment; it seemed she had been disappointed again.
Her expression was too obvious, and Zhou Peng looked at her amusedly, changing the subject.
"I heard from Miss Tang yesterday that Qi An has a girlfriend. You're close to him, have you heard about this?"
"Cough cough cough, what, cough, what girlfriend?" Zhou Sui choked on her own saliva as soon as she opened her mouth.
"Did Sister Tang Jia say that?" Zhou Sui's eyes flickered. "How did she know?"
"I haven't heard of this."
Zhou Sui was almost unable to sit still. She had clearly agreed with Song Qi'an that they wouldn't tell their families about this for the time being, so how did Zhou Peng find out now?
