Ouyang was reluctant to do this at first. After all, Uncle Zhuo was her elder, and logically speaking, she shouldn't interfere in the elders' private affairs. But Grandpa Zhuo said he would never let an actor into his house, and said that if Zhuo Qiang really married that woman, he would never let Uncle Zhuo set foot in the house again. This matter was serious. You know, it took a lot of effort for the father and son to reconcile after all these years. If they had a conflict because of this matter, Grandma Zhuo would be worried sick. So she agreed to go and see the woman's character first, and then persuade Uncle Zhuo to reconsider.
In the Zhuo Group elevator, just as she was about to press the button for the highest floor, she noticed a woman in the elevator going to the same floor as her. The staff around her seemed to recognize the woman wearing sunglasses, and someone took out their phone to secretly take the first photo.
Ouyang, who was standing behind her, also looked her up and down. She looked about the same age as himself. Her skin was very well maintained and had a certain luster. Not to mention men, even women would be unable to take their eyes off her.
The elevator reached the top floor, and Ouyang followed her. Seeing the secretary who was familiar with Zhuo Qiang, Ouyang walked up and asked, "Has the chairman signed the document sent yesterday?" She winked at the secretary.
"Well," the secretary said very cleverly, "signed."
The woman walked towards the chairman's office, pushed the door open without knocking, and walked in.
When the secretary saw the big star leave, he let Ouyang sit on a chair nearby.
"Have they been like this for a long time?" Ouyang asked.
"Are you talking about Chen Qiao?" the secretary said, "In the past month, she has been coming to the chairman's office and waiting until he gets off work before going out for dinner."
She searched for Chen Qiao's name on her phone. She was the same age as her and good-looking. She had signed a contract with the company a year ago and had filmed several campus youth dramas during that time, which had become popular. She checked the time. It was past three in the afternoon. "Isn't she filming recently?"
"She has another movie to shoot," the secretary said a little embarrassedly, "but the chairman has specially approved that she only needs to work half a day."
Ouyang looked at the secretary. They had known each other for a long time, so it was easy to tell whether she was lying or not. Perhaps there was something fishy going on here.
She stood up and tried to approach the office, but was stopped by the secretary: "Ouyang, why don't you go to the lounge and wait for the chairman."
Ouyang immediately understood what she meant. It was indeed inappropriate to ruin Uncle Zhuo's good deeds at this time. She went to rest, drank a few cups of coffee, and when she saw that it was almost time, she called Uncle Zhuo first: "Uncle Zhuo!"
"Ouyang," Zhuo Qiang answered the phone, "Why did you think of calling me?"
"I'm at your company," she said without hiding the fact, "Let's have dinner together."
The person on the other end of the phone paused: "Did your grandparents ask you to come?"
"I can't hide anything from Uncle Zhuo," she said. "I have to listen to my grandparents."
"Okay," the other party also knew her purpose, "just come directly to my office."
Ouyang stood up, walked out of the lounge, and nodded to the secretary at the office door.
Shen Qiao was sitting on the sofa on the side. When he saw Ouyang come in, he remembered the scene outside the office just now.
"Uncle Zhuo!" Ouyang called out.
"Let me introduce you. This is Ouyang Zishan," he said to Ouyang, "Ouyang, this is Chen Qiao."
"We've already met in the elevator," Ouyang said without hesitation, "It's time for you to get off work. How about I treat you guys to dinner?"
Chen Qiao was behind Ouyang and shook his head at Zhuo Qiang.
Ouyang was not in a hurry and sat down on the chair first, waiting for them to decide whether to go out for dinner together. In fact, she did not act unfriendly at all. In addition, this was a task assigned to her by her grandparents, so she had to pretend to be unhappy about the two of them being together.
"Ouyang," Zhuo Qiang said, "We were originally planning to go out to a concert. Since you're here, why don't we go together?"
Ouyang thought about it and decided that he had to eat before the concert, so this would be considered completing his task, so he agreed.
Shen Qiao didn't have a very good impression of Ouyang because she never looked at her directly from beginning to end when she was in the office.
Ouyang followed behind them and saw Uncle Zhuo's arm being held by Chen Qiao, then she looked back at the place where he was being held. The people in the company seemed accustomed to this, but this time they were all speculating about Ouyang's purpose. You have to know that Ouyang is half-Zhuo Qiang's daughter, and she also has the trust of Zhuo Qiang's parents. This time, she might have bad intentions.
Chen Qiao also sensed something was amiss. Previously, when she'd followed Zhuo Qiang out, the company's people would just keep their heads down, not daring to comment. This time, with Ouyang following behind, not only did everyone look up at them, but they were also whispering about something. Before this, she'd been somewhat familiar with Ouyang Zishan's name, her relationship with the Zhuo Group, and her place in Zhuo Qiang's heart.
After getting in the car, Ouyang sat in the back, not caring what the two people behind him were talking about. He looked at the message Grandma Zhuo sent him: Ouyang, ask your Uncle Zhuo to come back tonight. If he doesn't want to, just say Grandma fainted.
She frowned. She could lie, but she couldn't bear to use her grandmother as an excuse. Zhuo Qiang saw Ouyang's mood change in the rearview mirror. This child could deceive people with anything, but his eyes would never reveal anything fake.
