Upon hearing that it was Liang Qing speaking, Zhao Qingzhou looked up, his gaze softening.
"Just come in, no need to knock."
He thought it was one of his other subordinates.
Your tone was definitely a bit harsh just now...
"What's the matter?" he asked proactively.
He even got up from his chair, walked to the office door, and closed the half-open door.
No one dared to break into Director Zhao's office; he didn't need to lock the door, he could simply close it.
Liang Qing didn't notice Zhao Qingzhou's subtle action; she handed the document to Zhao Qingzhou.
"These are the reports that Deputy Director Wen asked me to compile. She said that these important reports should be presented to you for review first."
Zhao Qingzhou took the articles and glanced at them briefly, focusing on the titles and dates of the reports, as well as the events they covered…
No problem.
He took it and put it on the table.
Then, looking at Liang Qing, he said, "Are you afraid of me? We've been married for a while now, and I feel like you're still a little afraid of me."
"I didn't," Liang Qing said, but she still stepped back when Zhao Qingzhou approached.
Zhao Qingzhou said, "You're not like this at home. How come you're a completely different person when we get to work?"
As he spoke, he took Liang Qing's hand and pulled her closer to him.
Liang Qing stood rooted to the spot, as if facing a formidable enemy.
He gave a dry explanation: "It's different at home. We're at work now, so we need to keep a proper distance. You're a big boss, and I'm just a small employee."
Zhao Qingzhou pulled the person closer to his arms.
“But at home, you’re my boss. If you tell me not to touch you, I won’t dare.”
Liang Qing stared in disbelief at Director Zhao, who had uttered such absurd words…
Before they officially became a couple, Liang Qing would never have imagined that Zhao Qingzhou would say such flirtatious things to her.
"I want to kiss you." Zhao Qingzhou said, wrapping his arms around Liang Qing's waist without giving her a chance to refuse, and kissing her. When it came to how to win over his young wife, Zhao Qingzhou had specifically called Wen Qiao's husband, Shen Jichuan, for advice.
Shen Jichuan gave him a sentence that was direct, sincere, and expressed his needs.
Having received personal instruction from his teacher, Zhao Qingzhou also started to play the straight game.
His directness really caught Liang Qing off guard.
However, she also saw Zhao Qingzhou's feelings for her. To be honest, when faced with an excellent, mature, stable man with good conditions in all aspects, she was direct and straightforward when it came to expressing her feelings.
She had never met a man like this in her life; it was hard for her not to be attracted to him.
Noticing Liang Qing's initiative to approach him, Zhao Qingzhou felt that Old Shen's teachings had finally worked.
Wen Qiao is on vacation.
The happiest person was of course Shen Jichuan.
He even thought that Wen Qiao's successful leave might have been partly due to his efforts.
After all, Director Zhao had personally called him to ask how he had made Wen Qiao completely devoted to him.
Wen Qiao was curious when she learned that Zhao Qingzhou had called her husband, Lao Shen.
Why would he call you out of the blue?
If she wasn't mistaken, in Shen Jichuan's eyes, Zhao Qingzhou had once tried to steal his wife—(unsuccessfully).
But in Shen Jichuan's heart, there was a sense of wariness and hostility towards Zhao Qingzhou.
Therefore, when Shen Jichuan later learned that Zhao Qingzhou was going to marry Liang Qing, he felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
He wished Zhao Qingzhou would never contact Wen Qiao again, so naturally he wouldn't take the initiative to contact Zhao Qingzhou.
But Zhao Qingzhou, why did he contact Shen Jichuan out of the blue? What does he want to do?
Shen Jichuan glanced at his wife and asked, "You seem more worried about Zhao Qingzhou than me. Do you think I would bully him?"
Wen Qiao chuckled, "Don't mention it. I just feel that Zhao Qingzhou has no reason to contact you alone."
Shen Jichuan said softly, "I was just kidding. He came to me for advice, wanting to know how to make my wife devoted to me. Of course, I told him the truth."
"What truth?" Wen Qiao's face immediately turned red as she spoke. "You didn't tell everyone, did you? Shen Jichuan, did I forget to tell you? Don't tell anyone about our private matters as husband and wife. If you dare to say anything, I..."
Shen Jichuan immediately burst into laughter.
What are you going to do?
"Comrade Wen Qiao, you acted impulsively. Do you think I, Shen Jichuan, am that kind of person? Even if I were stupid, I would never talk about private matters between husband and wife."
Fearing that Wen Qiao might overthink things, Shen Jichuan immediately added, "I told him to be sincere and direct with people, not to beat around the bush, and to speak his mind directly about any needs he might have. Generally, the wife will not refuse."
Wen Qiao was relieved to hear this.
"No way. You wouldn't refuse someone you truly like. If you didn't like them, you wouldn't be able to sleep together at all. Your so-called advice is only suitable for people who already have feelings for each other."
After saying this, Wen Qiao suddenly realized that Liang Qing might also be developing feelings for Zhao Qingzhou, but she herself was unaware of it and always deliberately kept her distance at work.
Moreover, Liang Qing seemed very afraid of being found out that she had fallen for Zhao Qingzhou.
As for the specific reasons, Wen Qiao was unsure and didn't want to speculate.
However, Wen Qiao never expected that one day Zhao Qingzhou would take the initiative to seek advice from Shen Jichuan on how to find a wife.
However, Wen Qiao was also quite happy for Liang Qing.
At least Zhao Qingzhou really liked Liang Qing.
Wen Qiao and Shen Jichuan planned to travel to a southern city for about five days. She had a seven-day holiday, so she could spend two days with the children on the weekend.
The time was set, and Wen Qiao also told her mother, Ms. Lü Yazhi, to come and see the children when she was not busy.
Lü Yazhi agreed, saying that she would be staying at the Shen family's house for the next few days.
Xiao Wei is older now, and his family has a nanny who takes care of him, including meals and taking him to school.
Let Wen Qiao and her son-in-law Shen Jichuan have a good time.
After all, the couple had been married for many years and had never taken a proper trip together, so Lu Yazhi was very supportive of her daughter and son-in-law going on vacation.
