Chapter 60 Fiancée
Cheng Yu walked around the door, and when his eyes finally caught sight of the person sitting on the couch, his pupils contracted slightly.
I stopped unconsciously, I didn't expect to see Zhou Zhou here.
I'm wearing light makeup today, and my face is very plain.
She sat upright beside her parents, her bright black pupils fixed on him, a look mixed with confusion and regret.
It turned out that I was just as clueless as he was.
After a moment, he raised the corners of his lips again, and said in a non-serious tone: "Hongmen Banquet? You called me all the way here, you can't be arranging a marriage for me, right?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Uncle Cheng glared at him. "Why don't you call someone?"
"Uncle and aunt." Cheng Yu called out lazily, his eyes sliding across the unbelievably perverse face. His tone was light, with a hint of sarcasm that only the two of them understood, "So Miss Zhou is also interested in a marriage?"
Zhou Zhou: “…”
Yes, Cheng Yu is the only one who can do whatever he wants in front of his elders.
In front of their elders, Chen Yiyang and his companions were as docile as cats, not daring to breathe. Yet, he was so rebellious, and no one dared to call his behavior disrespectful.
She didn't expect this scene.
The purpose of the marriage wasn't likely to be discussed today; Lin Yue had said they would prioritize her wishes. But it was pretty much the same. They'd specifically called them together, perhaps to get to know each other.
There aren’t many choices for marriages among wealthy families.
Given Yueda's status in the capital, the Zhang family was a poor choice, but they had a long-standing partnership. Shengyi was a good choice; a marriage between them would allow for deeper strategic cooperation, benefiting Yueda's development.
Zhou Zhou could accept it even if someone else came.
It happened that it was Cheng Yu who came, and she also felt that this was a Hongmen Banquet.
I still remember what we said that night. It doesn’t matter who wins or loses, but I didn’t expect to be slapped in the face so quickly.
Zhou Xianda asked: "Do you know each other?"
Zhou Zhou hummed, "The night I came back, Chen Yiyang held a welcoming banquet, and Mr. Cheng was trapped in a suburban villa with us."
"It turns out that we have had such a fate." Aunt Cheng said with a smile.
fate?
Zhou Zhou disagrees.
It must be fate, not injustice, that makes him linger so much.
Zhou Zhou complained in her heart and secretly glanced at Cheng Yu next to her. She found that he was also looking at her with a playful look in his eyes.
"Yes." Cheng Yu's tone changed slightly, sounding a little disappointed. "Ms. Zhou is so distant. After all, we are still trapped together. You still call me Mr. Cheng."
"Don't you also call me Miss Zhou?" Zhou Zhou blurted out subconsciously.
After saying this, I found that several elders looked at each other with indescribable expressions.
She realized this meaning belatedly.
My throat feels dry and astringent, making it hard to swallow.
Their communication didn't seem like a simple casual encounter. Zhou Zhou's retort seemed to be a complaint against him for using such a polite and distant name to address her.
It feels a bit like flirting.
She didn't mean that.
Cheng Yu was too difficult to figure out, and he was sure that she dared not speak out in front of her elders, so he dared to act recklessly in such an occasion and deliberately teased her.
Zhou Zhou bit his lower lip and remained silent.
Cheng Yu glanced past her and smiled, following the false complaint: "Okay, it's my fault."
He admitted his mistakes quickly and seemed easy to talk to.
Being easy to talk to was a false facade. He quickly changed the subject, deliberately twisting the misunderstood part of the scene, and called her seriously, "Zhou Zhou."
Zhou Zhou: “…”
Even when everyone was sitting at the dining table, Zhou Zhou still had a splitting feeling in his heart.
The man and woman who had parted ways in bed actually sat together to eat, with their parents sitting next to them.
This scene happened so suddenly that she still finds it hard to digest it.
The original intention of today's meal was to get them to know each other, and we didn't plan to talk too much, so the topic rarely revolved around the two of them.
When Uncle Cheng heard that Zhou Zhou was planning to start a business, he asked a few simple questions and Zhou Zhou answered them one by one.
"That's great. It's a good thing for young people to want to start a business." Uncle Cheng looked dignified, but his words were quite approachable. "Cheng Yu is also starting a business. You two can exchange experiences when you have time."
Just as Zhou Zhou hummed in agreement, Cheng Yu beside him spoke up: "You call my little darling, whose profit growth exceeds that of your Tailin Investment, an entrepreneur?"
Uncle Cheng's face didn't look good after hearing this.
Cheng Yu didn't feel guilty about ruining his mood at all, and even the curve of his lips stretched out, as if he was still a little unsatisfied.
Zhou Xianda said with a smile: "C.Y Investment has developed into this situation in just a few years. It is really better than the original."
"My uncle praised me."
Cheng Yu's venomous tongue clearly hadn't reached the point of complete madness, and he was much more restrained in front of Zhou Xianda. "That technology company you acquired at a low price some time ago is truly a hot commodity. To be able to drive the price down so low, I still have a lot to learn from you."
Zhou Xianda was very happy with these two words of praise, and he praised Cheng Yu a few more times in front of Uncle Cheng.
Cheng Yu glanced at Zhou Zhou and found that she had hardly moved her chopsticks.
He smiled, thinking she would be unable to swallow. After all, after all the harsh words, this incident had only tightened the bond between them.
He had no intention of loving her, nor did he want her to love him. What they had said in the alley that night had already broken their relationship. Plus, at the Huiqi Bank dinner, he saw Yan Yiqi kiss her.
He had originally planned to let her go.
Just a woman. Zhou Zhou just piqued his interest. She was not the most special one.
So after returning the clothes to her, he suddenly felt bored and his interest in her returned to the starting point.
But now, he doesn't want to let it go.
This time she brought it to me herself.
Cheng Yu took the phone, found Zhou Zhou's WeChat, and sent a message.
CY: [Fiancée?]
This kind of teasing would probably be ignored by her, he thought.
But Cheng Yu had a worse idea in his heart. He wanted to see her angry but unable to do anything to him.
This thought flashed through his mind briefly and was quickly replaced by a few lines of small words. His eyes suddenly darkened and his smile suddenly became as cold as if it was wrapped in a layer of ice.
very good.
She deleted him.
