After Chen Zhe replied to the message, Xie Yuhan sent another message immediately.
Are you free right now? Can I give you a call?
"Can."
Xie Yuhan called.
Chen Zhe thought she would make a video call, but she only sent a voice message.
Actually, he really wanted to see what Xie Yuhan looked like now.
Have you lost or gained weight since you last saw each other a few months ago?
"Chen Zhe, are you busy?"
Xie Yuhan's voice was as light and pleasant as ever.
"It's alright, not too busy. How about you? Have you been out lately?"
Xie Yuhan often goes out with her grandfather, which is why Chen Zhe asked that question.
"Go out in a few days. By the way, Chen Zhe, I called you to tell you something."
Hearing Xie Yuhan's tone become serious, Chen Zhe listened attentively.
"you say."
"I recently had your fortune told, and the situation isn't good. You shouldn't go to places with water lately."
"Hmm? What's wrong? Is there some danger?"
Xie Yuhan hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
"Yes, your luck is not good this month. It's best to stay at home and not go anywhere."
Seeing how serious she was, Chen Zhe figured she must have figured something out. Xie Yuhan was very good at divination, so he chose to believe her. After thinking for a moment, he replied, "Don't worry, I've been staying at the company the whole time and haven't gone anywhere."
"Okay, that's good. You must remember this and keep it in mind."
"Yes, I remember."
A voice came from the other end of the phone; it was Xie Laodao's voice.
[Xiaoyu, where did the coat I bought go?]
[Grandpa, I'll find it for you later!]
[Come find it for me now, I need to wear it in a couple of days.]
[Okay then.]
"I have to talk to you now, my grandpa is calling me. Remember, don't go anywhere else this month, and especially don't go to places with water."
"Okay, I understand."
Xie Yuhan hung up the phone in a hurry. Several months later, the two talked again, but they didn't say much.
Chen Zhe looked at his phone, recalling Xie Yuhan's adorable appearance, and suddenly felt a warmth in his heart. Xie Yuhan was really kind. They hadn't been in contact for so long, yet she still told his fortune and took the initiative to call him. To be honest, he had a slight impulse to run over to her, but in the end, he rationally suppressed it.
He's too complicated now, not good enough for Xie Yuhan. Although he's wealthier and has achieved some success compared to his past self, people still feel inferior when facing someone they like. Besides that, there's another reason: he's bound to have conflicts with Hu Ling later, and he doesn't want his problems to drag Xie Yuhan down with him.
Evening arrived quickly, and Li Tianci came over tonight.
He has been harassing Wu Yuanyuan ever since he arrived here, demanding an explanation from her.
"Yuanyuan, what are you really thinking? Isn't it good to be my girlfriend? If you're my girlfriend, I can support you completely, and you can buy whatever you want."
Li Tianci was deeply in love with Wu Yuanyuan, but unfortunately, his feelings were unrequited. Because of past heartbreak, Wu Yuanyuan did not trust any man.
She was more calculating than affectionate towards men.
"Young Master Li, I am very grateful that you like me, but matters of the heart cannot be forced..."
Wu Yuanyuan had already tried to be very tactful, but Li Tianci remained stubborn.
"Am I that bad? I have money and connections. To put it bluntly, women who would throw themselves at me could line up from the North District to the East District, but I don't like any of them. I only like you, Yuanyuan..."
Li Tianci held Wu Yuanyuan's hand tightly.
"Please say yes, will you be my girlfriend? I promise I'll treat you well!"
Wu Yuanyuan was at a loss because of his pressure. Just then, Chen Zhe walked in.
"Young Master Li, why didn't you let me know you were coming? I could have made arrangements for you..."
Upon seeing Chen Zhe, Li Tianci snorted.
"Manager Chen, you've gone a bit too far this time. You know perfectly well that Gu Jingping isn't a good person, so why do you still let Yuanyuan get so close to him? Don't you know how I feel about Yuanyuan?"
"Young Master Li, you've misunderstood me. I'm also facing difficulties. If I didn't care about you, I wouldn't have sent you my address, right?"
“This kind of thing shouldn’t have happened. You could have just taken Yuanyuan home when she was drunk. Why did you drag her to the hotel? Did you have other ideas? Let me tell you, don’t use your position as manager to force Yuanyuan to do things she doesn’t want to do.”
"Oh dear, no, Yuanyuan wasn't feeling well at the time..."
Chen Zhe glanced at Wu Yuanyuan, who immediately chimed in after understanding what he meant: "Yes, Young Master Li, I was really feeling quite unwell at the time and just wanted to rest. I never expected Gu Jingping to have such inappropriate thoughts about me."
Li Tianci gritted his teeth when Gu Jingping was mentioned.
"That bastard! I knew he wasn't a good person. Giving him a beating was too lenient. You can't go near him again, understand?"
"I understand, Yuanyuan understands, right, Yuanyuan?"
Chen Zhe looked at Wu Yuanyuan.
Wu Yuanyuan nodded; "Don't worry, Young Master Li, I'll take a detour when I see him from now on."
Li Tianci nodded; "That's more like it. You must remember what I just told you, Yuanyuan, I really like you..."
In front of Chen Zhe, Li Tianci was still holding Wu Yuanyuan's hand and expressing his love.
Wu Yuanyuan looked at Chen Zhe pleadingly.
Chen Zhe immediately said, "Yuanyuan, you go out first. Sister Li needs to talk to you about something."
"Oh, okay! Young Master Li, I'll head out now..."
Wu Yuanyuan ran away as if fleeing.
"Yuanyuan!!!"
Li Tianci wanted to chase after him, but Chen Zhe stopped him.
"Young Master Li, don't be in such a hurry..."
"Manager Chen, let me go. I must tell Yuanyuan how I feel. I risked being scolded by my dad tonight. I must get an answer."
Chen Zhe comforted him, "Young Master Li, don't worry, let me talk to you first..."
“What’s there to talk about with you? Call Yuanyuan over. This is between Yuanyuan and me, and I hope you won’t interfere.”
“Young Master Li, I don’t necessarily want to get involved. I just want to tell you that this matter can’t be rushed. The fight between you and Gu Jingping has caused quite a stir. Gu Jingping has already been kicked out by Gu Zhendong. Your father will definitely put some restrictions on you. If you start dating Yuanyuan at this time, it won’t be a good thing for her.”
"Why isn't it a good thing? I truly love her."
"Of course I know that Young Master Li is sincere towards Yuanyuan, but you are not an ordinary person. You have a status, and your Li family is a prominent family in the North District. I believe your father will care a lot about this matter. If you force yourself to be with Yuanyuan now, do you think your father will treat Yuanyuan well?"
"this……"
Li Tianci hesitated because he knew his father's personality. He was fine with going out to have fun, but if things got serious, things were hard to say.
"Then what do you suggest we do?"
Li Tianci looked at Chen Zhe.
“Young Master Li, we need to think about this matter carefully. I’ve always been thinking about you two. You see, the reason Yuanyuan doesn’t want to be a technician is because she wants to get rid of that identity. You and I both know that it’s hard for your families to accept Yuanyuan’s profession. I’ve seen that, which is why I want to promote her to management. With someone as talented as you, Young Master Li, I think we must cultivate Yuanyuan to be outstanding enough that your family will look at her with new respect. Only then can you two be together.”
Li Tianci was persuaded by Chen Zhe's flattery and praise.
"That's true... Manager Chen, you're very thoughtful. But Yuanyuan is already the deputy manager, isn't that enough?"
"Of course not. Your Li family is so powerful and influential, and you associate with celebrities and business tycoons from all walks of life. Yuanyuan needs to reach my position to be worthy of you, right?"
"Well...when will you abdicate?"
Li Tianci really has absolutely no emotional intelligence at times.
Chen Zhe was speechless.
However, he still said, "Don't worry, it will be quick. I was transferred from the East District, and I'll be transferred back soon. I'll just talk to my boss about it then, and he'll take care of it."
"Okay! I'll trust you one more time, but you can't fool me."
"Young Master Li, you're so smart, it's hard for me to fool you!"
"That's true, hahaha."
"That's more like it, Young Master Li. Now that you're here, shall I arrange a technician for you?"
Li Tianci nodded.
"I'm still a bit tired today, one might not be enough, so please arrange two."
"Hehe, okay!"
Chen Zhe left.
As she closed the door, she smiled and shook her head. Actually, all men are pretty much the same.
For them, "infatuation" may sometimes be a personality trait. It may not be that he is infatuated with Wu Yuanyuan, but rather that he enjoys being "infatuated".
...
At the hospital.
Because of Gu Zhendong's obstruction, two days have passed and Xiao Dingdong still hasn't been able to see Gu Jingyan. She stands helplessly at the door waiting, but the bodyguard keeps watching her. If she makes any move, the bodyguard will stop her.
She couldn't speak, and her incoherent babbling went unanswered.
She sent Gu Jingyan many messages, but they all went unanswered; Gu Jingyan didn't reply to a single one.
In the hospital ward.
Cao Xue's lips twitched as she fed Gu Jingyan a bowl of white porridge.
She didn't want to come here to do this kind of thing at all; it was all because Gu Zhendong forced her to come.
Only she and Gu Jingyan were in the room.
Gu Jingyan also stopped performing.
When offered a soup spoon, he casually brushed it aside and threw it on the ground.
Cao Xue was so angry that her teeth itched. She stood up and smashed the bowl aside.
"What do you want? I'm kindly feeding you, and you're not going to drink it, are you?"
Gu Jingyan gave a cold laugh.
"Alright, Cao Xue, stop pretending. Who knows if there's poison in your porridge?"
"You! What nonsense are you spouting? How could I possibly do that?"
"Hehe, how could it be impossible? Don't think I'm stupid. The reason I got into this car accident was because of you, wasn't it? Too bad I'm lucky. You can't kill me."
Cao Xue's forehead was covered in cold sweat.
How could he have known?
Cao Xue would definitely not admit it; "Have you hit your head? I'm your mother, how could I do such a thing? Don't bite the hand that feeds you, you don't appreciate a kind heart."
"Hehe, Cao Xue, sometimes I really admire you. You don't even blush when you lie. You're much harder to deal with than that guy Gu Jingping. You're really good at hiding your feelings. You act like you care about me a lot in front of my dad, but I know in my heart that you want to kill me right now, don't you?"
Cao Xue crossed her arms and sneered.
"I don't know what you're talking about. You're slandering me. You're saying I harmed you, but what evidence do you have?"
"Who says I have no evidence?"
Cao Xue's heart skipped a beat, and her heart pounded.
[Wasn't it done cleanly enough? Did he actually discover something?]
