Chapter 10 Something is wrong with her. The wealthy wife of the chairman
After playing at the horse farm for a day and having dinner together, Zhou Yangze finally took Du Ningyou home. He felt more tired today than a week of work.
Compared to his excitement when he left, Du Ningyou was noticeably quieter on the way back. After driving towards the city for about ten minutes, Zhou Yangze asked, "Are you thinking about the Fang family?"
"Yeah, I'm thinking that we're lucky we were born into the Du and Zhou families. If we were in my senior's situation, we might not even survive to adulthood."
"Don't think too much. Everyone has their own path to walk. If we were in an environment like the Fang family, we could strive to break through and take the initiative just like Fang Rongxin did. We were born into loving families like the Du and Zhou families. We should cherish and enjoy the present. We can also use the power in our hands to help those in need. It's that simple."
Du Ningyou was a little surprised that Zhou Yangze could live so clearly.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Are you impressed by my charm again?"
"I just never thought that one day I would hear such words from Master Zhou."
"Why, in your heart I am good for nothing except eating, drinking and having fun."
"I used to think so, but I've changed my mind about you recently."
"I know you think I'm responsible, I have positive values, and I'll work hard to accomplish what I set my mind to. Even though I'm a bit cocky and stubborn, I'm actually very accommodating to you. If you marry me, your life shouldn't be too bad."
"..." The more Du Ningyou listened, the more she felt something was wrong. Wasn't this exactly what she, Jiang Kehuan, Jin Yue and the others said that night? This person had indeed heard it, and now he could even repeat it word for word. He must have been thinking about it over and over again.
Ah~~~ She is too embarrassed to see anyone!!!
Looking at the person who was trying hard to hide himself, Zhou Yangze burst into a proud and hearty laugh, and his voice could be clearly heard on the empty street.
Shen Wanyun heard that Zhou Yangze was performing well in the company, especially recently, his enthusiasm for work was unprecedentedly high. She couldn't help but want to come and see it with her own eyes.
Finally, one day near the end of the get off work day, Shen Wanyun came to Zhou's.
Zhou Mingcheng accompanied his mother and stood quietly outside the conference room, where Zhou Yangze was having a meeting with team members.
Sister Zhang: "Mr. Chang responded and said he can cooperate with us in recording the new role."
"Well, have you contacted all the celebrity guests that were previously confirmed?"
"Everything has been contacted, just waiting for the final signing."
At this time, the legal representative handed over the contract and said, "Second Master, this is the new version. Please review it to see if there are any changes or additions that need to be made. If not, you can contact the guest directly to sign the contract."
"I'll come down and check again and see the reply."
"good."
…
Shen Wanyun looked pleased outside and said to her eldest son, "This kid is doing quite well."
Zhou Mingcheng agreed, "My brother's performance this time is really good. At first, I thought he was just a flash in the pan and wouldn't last more than a few days. I didn't expect him to not only stick with it until now, but also become more and more motivated. The preliminary work for this project is already mostly completed, and we estimate that we can start filming next month."
"Not bad, not bad. You've been working hard lately. I'll take you guys out for dinner after get off work, and I'll also invite Aze's team members along."
However, Zhou Mingcheng looked at his schedule and said, "I can't. I have an appointment with a client this afternoon."
"Hey, busy man~Okay, go and do your thing."
Zhou Mingcheng smiled and said, "I'll come back on the weekend to have dinner with you and father."
"OK OK."
Shen Wanyun watched outside for a while before turning around and leaving, preparing to go to her youngest son's office to wait for them to get off work.
In Zhou Yangze's office, Du Ningyou was lying comfortably on the sofa, holding a tablet, chewing potato chips, and occasionally drinking milk tea.
Recently, Zhou Yangze didn't know what was wrong. He often asked her to come to Zhou's on the pretext of work, and occupied her time after get off work with various reasons, causing her to turn down several invitations from his seniors. Today was the same. He said that they had been busy recently and wanted to invite the members of the project team to have a meal together, and asked her, his partner, to come along.
So now I am waiting in Zhou Yangze's office.
Compared to the beginning, this office has gradually added a lot of things. It can be clearly seen that the reception area has been replaced with a more comfortable sofa; then there is a cabinet placed in the corner, which is full of Du Ningyou's favorite snacks, which are replenished and replaced from time to time; there is also a small refrigerator next to it, which contains fresh juice, milk tea, and her favorite small cakes; in addition, there is usually a tablet in the drawer on the right side of Zhou Yangze's desk, which is specifically for her daily entertainment.
This place looks more and more like her office in the Youran Foundation.
Shen Wanyun followed her assistant's instructions and came to her youngest son's office. After opening the door, she saw Du Ningyou lying comfortably on the sofa, holding a tablet in his hand and laughing. On the coffee table was a half-drunk milk tea and an opened bottle of potato chips.
Du Ningyou noticed someone coming in and thought it was Zhou Yangze. Without even turning his head, he just waved for him to come over. "Zhou Yangze, come and see. I just saw a really funny clip."
Shen Wanyun walked over with a smile, took a look at the clip she was talking about, and couldn't help but covered her mouth and laughed out loud.
Du Ningyou finally realized something was wrong. After turning around to see who was standing behind him, he quickly flipped over and stood up, and greeted politely: "Auntie Shen, why are you here?"
Seeing his masterpiece on the coffee table and the sofa, he was busy cleaning it up, wiping the water stains on the coffee table and the crumbs that accidentally fell on the sofa with a paper towel, and then enthusiastically invited Shen Wanyun to sit down, "Auntie, please sit down~"
Shen Wanyun pulled him over to sit down next to her. "After not seeing you for a while, why is Xiao Ningyou still so estranged from Auntie? Where's that coquettish energy you used to have?"
Du Ningyou laughed, "Hehe," and then asked, "Auntie, are you here to look for Brother Aze?"
"Yeah, I heard he's been working really hard lately, so I came over to see for myself and treat the team to a meal. It would be even better if you were here, Ningyou. Let's join us later."
Du Ningyou nodded awkwardly, and at the same time blamed Zhou Yangze in her heart, why didn't he tell her earlier that it was her aunt who was treating her, otherwise she wouldn't be lying here in such an ungraceful manner.
Zhou Yangze announced early in the morning that he would treat everyone to dinner today, so everyone's spirits were obviously high after the meeting. They quickly packed up the materials on hand and prepared to leave as soon as work was over.
Pushing open the office door, Zhou Yangze said, "Pack up and get ready to go."
But he saw that besides Du Ningyou, there was also his mother, and he asked in surprise: "Mom, why are you here?"
"What? Did I come here to disturb something good?" Shen Wanyun asked with a smile on her face.
Du Ningyou always felt that this was a bit strange, so Zhou Yangze explained, "I was planning to take the team members out for dinner after get off work, and I invited Ningyou to come along as a partner."
"I came here today to check on your work status. I was standing outside when you were having a meeting just now. This is the first time I've seen you work so hard, so I'm going to treat your team to a meal together." Then he patted Du Ningyou's hand on his knee and said, "Ningyou happens to be here too, so let's get together today."
Du Ningyou understood after hearing this. It turned out that Zhou Yangze didn't know either.
When Zhou Yangze heard that his mother was going to treat us, he was of course happy. He immediately contacted Guan Zhuo to change to a more upscale place. In front of Shen Wanyun, he said sweetly: "Notify everyone that the chairman's wife is treating us today. We will not go to Honglai, but take everyone to Maiyue Building for a seafood buffet."
"Okay, I'll go and notify them right away."
Shen Wanyun deliberately complained: “Good boy, you took the opportunity to kill me, right?”
He smiled shamelessly, "How can I call you Zai? I'm making my mother famous. Although my mother is not in the company, everyone will know that Zhou has a wealthy chairman's wife."
"Okay, okay, I won't argue with you today for Ning You's sake."
Zhou Yangze looked at Du Ningyou next to him, tilted his head slightly and winked at her.
In addition to the rich variety of dishes and delicious taste, another highlight of the seafood buffet on the top floor of Maiyue Building is its vast view, which allows you to take in the entire central city.
In addition to the main members of the project team, Zhou Yangze also invited members from other departments with whom he had daily work interactions to the dinner. More than a dozen people occupied all the seats near the windows in the store.
Zhu Xue took a few plates of her favorite food, filled a table with other colleagues, and then took several photos and sent them to her friend group.
The first person to speak was Ma Xiaopang, who excitedly sent several heartbroken emojis in the group.
"Ahhh, why can't I be a member of your project team? I also want to eat the seafood buffet!!!"
Then came Su Xiaokui. "I found a highlight in your photo. Mr. Zhou Er is handing peeled crab legs to Ms. Du. Wow! How can a childhood sweetheart, a perfect match, and even happen to be together?"
Xia Yiru's painting style reveals the bitterness of a working person. She simply quietly distributed a bucket of instant noodles, along with a message: "Working overtime, I hate all of you who have already left work and are eating out."
Zhu Xue @ed them one by one and replied.
@马小胖: "Xiao Pang, work hard and try to be in charge of the daily arrangements for the celebrity guests during the show next month, so you can work with me."
@Su Xiaokui: "There's not much genuine affection in a wealthy marriage; it's mostly about exchanging interests. Xiaokui, I advise you not to get too carried away."
@夏艺茹: "pat on the head.GIF" and then said: "I'll bring you soup dumplings from the house downstairs tomorrow morning."
Ma Xiaopang: "[clench fist][clench fist] I will work hard to have a good meal! Also, I want soup dumplings tomorrow too."
Su Xiaokui: "+1 for the soup dumpling. Also, I think my partner will be the exception. I already have a story in my mind about a wealthy young master who turns prodigal and dotes on his childhood sweetheart."
Xia Yiru: "Xuexue is still the best, [kiss][kiss][kiss]."
…
On the other side, Zhou Yangze peeled crab legs and opened lobster for the two ladies. Du Ningyou politely said "thank you" when he took it.
Zhou Yangze paused, wondering why she was being polite again. After eating for a while, he felt that something was wrong with Du Ningyou next to him. Although he was usually quite polite when eating, he was particularly particular today. He didn't pick up the crab meat and chew it, but picked it out bit by bit with chopsticks, dipped it in sauce, and then chewed it slowly.
Zhou Yangze touched her arm and teased in a low voice: "What's wrong? Are you feeling reserved because there are so many people here today?"
Du Ning peeled the shrimp slowly and methodically, and replied softly, "I'm usually so particular." Then he put the peeled shrimp into Aunt Shen's bowl beside him and said considerately, "Auntie, please eat."
"Wow, Ning You knows how to take care of others now. Auntie is so touched." She then deliberately showed off in front of her son: "Oh, little Ning You peels the delicious ones."
Zhou Yangze muttered softly, "It's like no one has ever eaten it before." Not long ago, he had eaten crayfish peeled by Du Ningyou himself, although he had used some tricks to get it.
Just as someone was putting a few slices of sashimi into his mouth, a white and tender shrimp was placed in his bowl.
"Brother Aze has worked hard, you should eat too."
Zhou Yangze looked at the shrimp in the bowl in disbelief, then turned to look at the smiling Du Ningyou. He couldn't believe it! Not only did she peel the shrimp for him, she also smiled so sweetly! When did she become so considerate to him?
He ate the shrimp with a look of suspicion, and couldn't help thinking, according to past experience, Du Ningyou usually showed his courtesy to ask him for something, and judging from the situation, it seemed that what he wanted was not small.
Seeing this, Shen Wanyun quickly let Du Ningyou eat first, "Ningyou! How could you peel it for him? He should be taking care of you."
"Brother Aze has been serving us the whole time. We didn't have time to eat much. It's as he deserves."
"You can't do that. I'm telling you, this kid is the type who will shine brightly if he's given a little sunshine. You can't compromise with him. In the future... well, just don't let him peel it. Just eat it. Let him get whatever he wants, okay?"
Zhou Yangze was immediately dissatisfied when he heard this, "Mom, am I still your son?"
"If possible, I would love for Ning You to swap places with you. Our family is in need of a cute little girl."
Zhou Yangze: "..."
Du Ningyou covered her mouth and laughed secretly. When she turned to look at Zhou Yangze, she no longer pretended, and her eyes were full of cunning.
He couldn't help but pinch her face lightly, but Du Ningyou slapped him away. After that, he suddenly realized that it was damaging to his image, so he quickly sat down and switched back to being a lady.
Shen Wanyun looked at the two of them and they became happier and happier. It seemed that it wouldn't be long before she could discuss the engagement with Boyan.
I also thought...why not get married right away after a while?
Yes, to avoid any unnecessary trouble.
