Ask her to come home?
hehe!
That sounds nice!
Doesn't he feel uncomfortable saying those kinds of things?
She and he had no relationship for five years. So how could they have a home together?
"Shadow, are you alright over there?" Cheng Ye asked again, probably because she hadn't responded for a long time.
"That's great. I just took Zizai for a walk outdoors a few days ago."
Zhu Qianying didn't want Cheng Ye to worry. Although it was a secret meeting with her son, she described it as a wonderful mother-son reunion.
In fact, those three days and two nights were indeed a wonderful time for the mother and child to reunite. As for how this reunion was made possible, it doesn't matter. The fact that the result was good is enough.
"Really? That's good!"
Cheng Ye, on the other end of the phone, originally planned to tell her about Yan Han's trip to the United States to find her and how he had efficiently resolved the threats and obstacles she faced.
But when he was about to say it, he changed his mind.
"Yes, so I obediently came back to report for duty. Boss, look how proactive I am! Can I get a bigger bonus?" Zhu Qianying replied with a smile.
"Sure, I'll give you a one percent increase in your sales commission!"
Cheng Ye has always been a generous boss, especially since this employee, Zhu Qianying, is someone he appreciates and cares about.
Zhu Qianying was only joking at first, but after hearing this, she couldn't help but be taken aback.
"Cheng, I was just kidding! You should save that one percent to invest in the next branch."
Who doesn't want money?
Especially Zhu Qianying, who is obsessed with money, but her obsession with money is only about what she deserves.
She wouldn't take even a penny more than she deserved!
Cheng Ye must have anticipated that she would spend a lot of money after returning to China, so he tried every means to give her money. But she was just his employee, and she received her full salary and bonuses. Getting an extra percentage for no reason gave her the illusion that she was being kept.
Five years ago, she threw herself into that huge pit because of 200 million yuan. Five years later, she doesn't want something similar to happen again.
Cheng Ye seemed to have anticipated her rejection.
"I'm not letting you take it for free! Since you're in L City now, help out the business there. If you reach the target, I'll give you a 1% increase in your sales commission."
Zhu Qianying actually liked Cheng Ye's "you're nice to me, I'm nice to you" approach!
"Okay, deal!"
Although he was also trying to give her money, Cheng Ye knew how to exchange it for the value of her labor.
But Yan Shao only ever offered bribes! Whether it was money or anything else.
Perhaps because she had returned to L City, Zhu Qianying always subconsciously compared Cheng Ye and Yan Shao.
But clearly, there is no need to compare these two people, nor is there any way to compare them.
After finishing her phone call with Cheng Ye, Zhu Qianying casually cooked some noodles, ate them, took a shower, and then had a wonderful sleep.
The next day, she slept until after eight o'clock, got up, washed up, put on sunglasses and went out. First, she went to Ying Jewelry to make some effort for her one percent sales bonus. Then, she left Ying Jewelry and wandered aimlessly on the street.
To say she was aimless wouldn't be accurate, because during that time she visited two real estate agencies, looked at houses, and gathered some useful information.
The rest of the time, she really just wandered around.
Five years after I left, this city is still exactly the same as it was five years ago.
Even the dessert shop around the corner still had colorful wind chimes hanging in front of its door, just like before. As she walked past, she habitually extended her hand, and the strings of wind chimes jingled melodiously under her touch.
Further ahead, there is a small boutique that displays all sorts of interesting little things.
There are antique bamboo pen holders for holding pens, and small grass baskets for holding crickets. In the past, Zhu Qianying could stand here for hours at a time.
Zhu Qianying lifted the beaded curtain and went inside.
The proprietress was slightly taken aback when she saw her, but quickly her eyes lit up with surprise. "Oh, little sister, it's been so long!"
Zhu Qianying started coming and going here when she was twelve or thirteen years old, so the proprietress always called her little sister.
"Hello, Auntie!" Zhu Qianying did not resist the title that had been with her for years; on the contrary, it sounded very heartwarming.
In Country M, she never knew that she missed City L so much.
Only then did she realize that every blade of grass, every tree, every brick, and every tile here was filled with her old memories.
Those familiar scenes and faces seemed like tentacles, and what she thought she had forgotten and scattered was gradually stirred up from the depths of her heart, slowly solidifying into a clear image of the past.
She is an optimistic person, so all she remembers are the happy things from the past.
When she was twelve, she hid in this little shop to avoid Zhu Haokang, and it was here that she discovered a wonderfully interesting and vast world.
"We've got a lot of new stuff lately. It's in section B. Go check it out yourself, little sister."
For ten years, the proprietress has treated her just like the little sister who used to clutch her pocket money tightly and run over to buy a few interesting little things.
Zhu Qianying, on the other hand, has seen and experienced far more than these small items, and what she can buy is naturally much more valuable than what is in front of her.
But after listening to the proprietress's greeting, she still walked to Section B with great interest, squatted down in the corner where she used to like squatting the most, and picked up one little treasure after another to savor.
Her world has always been vast.
It can also be very small.
In this vast world, she can spread her wings and fly freely.
In her little world, she could squat or sit cross-legged whenever she wanted without any restraint, all for a small item she had fallen in love with, costing ten or eight yuan.
She squatted in that corner for two or three hours. When she stood up, there were ten or eight good things she had picked out in the basket in front of her.
"Auntie, I'll take these."
Zhu Qianying carried her basket to the cashier. As usual, the proprietress handed her a glass of water, then took out the small items from her basket, calculated the total, and, as usual, gave her a 10% discount.
Zhu Qianying finished her water in one gulp, paid, said "Thank you, Auntie," and happily lifted the curtain to walk out, carrying the little treasure she had just bought.
While browsing the trinkets in the shop, she put away her sunglasses and into her backpack. Now, as she lifted the curtain and looked up, she was greeted by a beautiful view of a clear blue sky. She couldn't help but smile contentedly.
"Did you find a gold mine? You're so happy?!"
Without warning, a teasing voice entered her ears!
Zhu Qianying was shocked and tried to run away, but the other party was prepared. With a long arm, he pulled her away, and the next second, she crashed heavily into a broad chest!
