Chapter 29 Sorry to bother you
"Well, go eat!" Feng Yizhou suppressed his displeasure, his voice was low and cold, as if squeezed out from between his teeth. There was obvious dissatisfaction in the voice, but also a hint of helplessness that was not easily detected.
When Jiang Mu heard this, his body trembled slightly. He stood where he was, not daring to move.
He secretly glanced at Feng Yizhou's gloomy face, and complained in his heart: President, how can I dare to go down to eat when you are like this?
Feng Yizhou was sitting at his desk at this moment, with the documents thrown aside casually by him, his mind already drifting away.
He was fiddling with his phone in his hand, his eyes shifting from time to time between the screen and the azure sky outside the window.
He stared at the screen of his mobile phone with a focused look, as if he was waiting for some crucial news.
But as time passed, the phone screen remained dead silent, and no message was received from Li Ruchu.
Just when Feng Yizhou was feeling annoyed and his stomach was rumbling, the cell phone in Jiang Mu's pocket suddenly rang.
The sharp ringing sounded particularly harsh in this slightly dull study.
Jiang Mu was startled and hurriedly took out his mobile phone, only to see that it was a video call from Nan Zhiyu.
He looked up at Feng Yizhou, who was in a bad mood, and began to worry.
His finger hovered over the answer button, hesitating whether to answer the call.
Unexpectedly, Feng Yizhou seemed to be ignited by some emotion due to the ringtone. He moved faster than Jiang Mu and reached out to grab the phone.
He pressed the connect button decisively, then pointed the camera steadily at Jiang Mu.
Jiang Mu's eyes widened in shock, but he didn't dare to protest.
"Hey, little brother, we have prepared a delicious meal, please come down quickly!"
Nan Zhiyu's enthusiastic voice instantly came out from the phone.
Behind is a dining table filled with delicious food. The steaming dishes exude an enticing aroma that seems to be smelled through the screen.
"I...this..." Jiang Mu stuttered, his eyes switching back and forth between Feng Yizhou and the phone screen in panic.
My mind raced, but I couldn't come up with a suitable answer.
Dead brain, turn around!
"Little brother, is it because your boss won't let you leave? No matter how hard you work, you can't exploit your employees. You still have to eat!"
Seeing that Jiang Mu was hesitant, Nan Zhiyu simply spoke out what was on her mind.
When Jiang Mu heard this, his heart sank suddenly, as if he was hit by a huge rock.
He secretly glanced at Feng Yizhou, and saw that Feng Yizhou's face suddenly became terribly gloomy, and his originally deep eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of frost.
Jiang Mu secretly groaned, thinking that he was in big trouble now. Nan Zhiyu's words were simply plucking hair from a tiger's head.
On the other end of the phone, Li Ruochu was standing next to Nan Zhiyu. She keenly noticed that Jiang Mu's expression was not right.
She leaned close to Nan Zhiyu and whispered, "Secretary Jiang, is President Feng here? I think you haven't prepared the food yet. Ask President Feng if he wants to come down to eat something."
Li Ruochu knew clearly that Feng Yizhou was a workaholic.
During the two-day weekend, other people would have relaxed long ago, but he was still immersed in work and didn't stop for a moment.
It’s no wonder that the Feng family’s business is so prosperous nowadays; with such a workaholic at the helm, it’s hard not to be successful.
"Yeah!" Feng Yizhou couldn't help it and answered directly for Jiang Mu.
His voice was low and calm, without any emotion in it, but this short word made Nan Zhiyu's face freeze instantly.
Her eyes were wide open, her mouth slightly open, and her face was full of fear and regret.
Only then did he realize that he had just said bad things about him in front of his boss.
It’s over, it’s over. Am I going to be in big trouble now?
She subconsciously looked at Li Ruchu, her eyes full of help.
When Li Ruochu saw this, he quickly gave Nan Zhiyu a reassuring look, patted her shoulder gently, and signaled her not to worry.
In Li Ruochu's impression, although Feng Yizhou is usually serious at work, he is actually quite friendly in private and should not get angry over such a small matter.
Two minutes later, there was a crisp knock on the door.
Li Ruochu took a deep breath, calmed his nervous mood, walked quickly to the door, and reached out to open it.
Feng Yizhou was standing at the door, wearing simple yet elegant home clothes.
The hair was not deliberately groomed, but it unexpectedly added a casual touch.
There was a faint smile on his face, which was completely different from his usual stern look when he was working.
"Secretary Li, sorry to bother you!" His voice was gentle and low, as if it carried a magical power that could make people feel at ease.
Nan Zhiyu looked at Feng Yizhou who suddenly appeared in front of her, and her eyes instantly widened.
The worry in my mind about saying the wrong thing just now was blown away like a breeze and was completely forgotten.
Her eyes were fixed on Feng Yizhou's handsome face, as if she was under a spell.
Feng Yizhou's facial features are like carefully crafted works of art. His deep eyes seem to hide the vast stars, and under his high nose bridge are lips with beautiful lines.
Nan Zhiyu only felt her heartbeat suddenly quicken, and even a string of pink bubbles began to pop up uncontrollably in her mind.
However, Nan Zhiyu was still rational after all. After a brief moment of distraction, she secretly reminded herself in her heart.
People like Feng Yizhou, who are at the top of the pyramid, are out of reach for me, so I must not be wishful thinking.
"Hello, Mr. Feng. I'm Chuchu's friend." The voice was clear, but with a hint of barely perceptible nervousness.
"Well! I've brought the person here. I'm sure Miss Nan won't think I'm a boss who exploits employees anymore."
The corners of Feng Yizhou's mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile.
As soon as Feng Yizhou said this, Nan Zhiyu's face instantly became extremely embarrassed, as if her secret had been exposed in public.
Oh my god, this man really holds a grudge!
Seeing this, Li Ruochu hurriedly stepped forward with a smile, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere: "Boss Feng, my friend is timid, please stop teasing her."
As he spoke, Li Ruochu turned around and brought a plate of strawberries, "We picked these this morning, President Feng, please try them!" "Secretary Li, how do you know that our president likes strawberries the most?" Jiang Mu walked in behind Feng Yizhou, and when he saw this scene, he smiled and flattered him without losing any opportunity.
However, it would have been better if Jiang Mu hadn't said it. As soon as he said this, Li Ruochu felt like he was struck by an electric current, and the embarrassing scene in the elevator emerged uncontrollably in his mind.
Keep your brain, keep your brain!
She avoided looking at Feng Yizhou and said in a panic, "Well, let's eat. I don't know what you like, so I just made a few dishes."
As she spoke, she hurriedly turned around, picked up the bowl and chopsticks beside her, filled a bowl of rice, and handed it to Feng Yizhou with both hands.
Looking at the table full of delicious food with good color, aroma and taste, Feng Yizhou felt his appetite increase greatly.
Li Ruochu took the lead in reaching out his chopsticks, picked up a chicken leg and placed it in Feng Yizhou's bowl, his movements gentle and natural: "Boss Feng, I ate one of your chicken legs last time, try what I made and see if it suits your taste!"
Li Ruochu's action made Feng Yizhou in a good mood.
He looked at the chicken legs in the bowl, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose, revealing a satisfied smile.
Without any hesitation, he picked up the chicken leg with chopsticks and put it in his mouth to taste it.
Feng Yizhou's eyes lit up. "Secretary Li's cooking skills are great!"
