"Don't worry! We'll definitely secure all the business and help you make your company the top one in the industry as soon as possible!"
Jianyu, “…”
Huo Qizhen, who happened to be walking in, was speechless.
The employees are more ambitious than the boss, and Jian Yu doesn't know what expression to make for a moment.
He could only raise his fist and encourage himself, "Then I'll leave it to you!"
The assistant also raised her fist and waved at Jian Yu, "We can do it."
Jian Yu smiled with utmost kindness.
After the assistant left, Huo Qizhen finally laughed out loud, "You have a very good employee!"
Jian Yu nodded, "That's right! They've only been in kindergarten, and they're already trying to turn them into postdoctoral fellows."
Kenneth Fok laughed uncontrollably.
Jian Yu rested for two days and then returned to normal.
I went to the company that day.
His assistant sent him home, citing the importance of health.
When Huo Qizhen returned home, he saw Jian Yu lying on the sofa, sighing and complaining!
"What's wrong?"
Jian Yu turned around and asked a completely unrelated question, "How do you feel about our life now?"
Huo Qizhen stared into Jian Yu's eyes with deep affection. "It's great. Tingzhen has her life, and I have you. So I'm very happy now."
Suddenly confessed to, Jian Yu blushed slightly and said somewhat shyly, "Me too."
Just then, the maid came over, and Jian Yu stood up and pulled Huo Qizhen to the dining room for dinner.
The following day, due to work reasons, Kenneth Fok went abroad for a period of time.
Jian Yu started spending all his time in the office again. This time, George was instructed to keep a close eye on Jian Yu's condition.
One day, he choked on his water too quickly, and it soon reached Huo Qizhen's ears.
After calming Huo Qizhen down via video call, Jian Yu and George sat face to face on the sofa. "George! Mr. Huo is too busy abroad, let's not bother him unless it's important!"
George said, "You've been coughing, how can this be a small matter? I know how hard it is for you to get better with a cough. President Huo was worried about you. You don't even know that when he heard you were coughing, he dropped what he was doing and called me to take you to the hospital for a checkup right away."
"I choked on my water."
There are many types of coughs, and not all of them are caused by this reason.
Jian Yu sat up straight, ready to have a good talk with George.
George frowned. "You drank an iced coffee this morning. That's probably why you're coughing."
Jian Yu felt a little guilty. "How did you know?"
"When everyone else orders coffee, they all default to hot coffee, while everyone else gets iced coffee; it's only when you order that it's an exception. Today you ordered all iced coffee, and I saw the label on it."
Jian Yu raised his hand, signaling George to stop talking.
"The temperature is over 20 degrees Celsius today, so I can drink an iced coffee without any problem."
George, "Are you coughing?"
“…”, Jian Yu said, “That was from choking on water.”
To prevent the topic from going on, Jian Yu pretended to be thirsty and went out to get some water.
That evening, Jian Yu sat alone on the second-floor balcony, gazing at the dim lights outside the window, his mind filled with countless thoughts.
She misses Huo Qizhen.
I really, really want to.
She picked up her phone, typed a message, but remained motionless on the send button for a long time.
She knew that as long as she sent this message, Huo Qizhen would make time to come back and see her, no matter how busy he was.
However, this would make Huo Qizhen very tired.
She didn't want him to be so tired.
In the end, I deleted the message.
As a result, due to being distracted, I accidentally pressed the send button.
But she herself was completely unaware of it.
She pulled her shawl over her shoulders and went back to her bedroom.
In a corporate building tens of thousands of kilometers away, Huo Qizhen's phone rang.
Upon hearing a specific ringtone, Fok Kai-chun quickly picked it up to check.
【I miss you】
Huo Qizhen's pupils shrank sharply. He had been with Jian Yu for so long, and Jian Yu had never said such coquettish things to him before.
The upturned corners of his mouth revealed his inner joy.
Huo Qizhen closed the plan and said, "No overtime tonight, everyone go home and rest!"
In her sleep, Jian Yu felt a slight itch on her cheek. She groggily opened her eyes, and the sleepiness immediately vanished.
"Why are you back? Didn't you say it would be another two weeks?"
Huo Qizhen put his arm around Jian Yu's waist, "This is the first time you've said you missed me, so I had to rush back."
"ah?"
Jian Yu stared blankly at Huo Qizhen's face. When did she say that?
Huo Qizhen's eyes were full of doting affection. "I know I haven't spent enough time with you these past two months. I will try my best to spend more time with you in the future."
Jian Yu shook her head. "I know you're busy, and I understand how hard you work. You don't need to tell me these things."
Huo Qizhen felt a warm current surge in his heart after hearing this, and gently bit Jian Yu's ear, "But I miss you too."
He lowered his head and gently kissed Jian Yu's forehead. "Sleep well, goodnight."
Jian Yu closed her eyes, feeling Huo Qizhen's embrace and warmth, and soon fell asleep again.
......
Jian Yu realized she had mistakenly sent the message on the very day Huo Qizhen left again.
The new message she received contained the four words she thought she had deleted.
Jianyu, “…”
No wonder Huo Qizhen made a special trip back to see her.
When sending messages to Huo Qizhen again, Jian Yu was much more cautious, checking the content before sending each message.
Once you've confirmed everything is correct, then send it over.
That day, Jian Yu was reviewing a contract when she suddenly felt a chill on her neck. Looking down, she noticed a simple yet exquisite necklace.
"How is it? Do you like it?"
Huo Qizhen placed his hands on Jian Yu's shoulders and massaged them a few times.
Jian Yu immediately felt a lot of relief in his shoulders.
Just as Huo Qizhen was about to withdraw his hand, he noticed Jian Yu's body relax instantly, so he continued to squeeze.
Why didn't you tell me you were coming back?
Huo Qizhen coughed lightly, "I just wanted to give you a surprise."
Jian Yu deliberately refused to cooperate, saying, "More like being frightened."
Huo Qizhen exaggeratedly admitted that he was wrong.
Jian Yu was laughing very happily.
So, Huo Qizhen's shoulder-massaging movements became even more precise. "Can I massage you a little longer as an apology?"
Jian Yu pursed his lips, pretending to think, "It's just so-so."
Huo Qizhen raised an eyebrow. "Oh? Just so-so? Then I'll have to practice more."
Jian Yu shrugged, signaling him to stop.
He picked up a small mirror from the drawer, looked at himself, and nodded in satisfaction. "Not bad."
Huo Qizhen hugged her from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder. "Of course, look who designed it."
Jian Yu casually asked, "Who designed it?"
"you guess?"
Huo Qizhen chuckled softly and lowered his head to kiss her neck.
Jian Yu shuddered, becoming much more sober. She gently pushed him away, saying, "Stop fooling around, this is the office."
Huo Qizhen reluctantly let go of her. "How much work do you still have?"
Jian Yu replied, "About half an hour."
"Okay. I'll wait for you."
Since there was no place for Jian Yu to take a nap, Huo Qizhen could only sit on the sofa in her office.
Just as Jian Yu was about to leave work, a very important client suddenly arrived at the company.
Jian Yu couldn't refuse, so he led the person to the conference room.
This conversation lasted for more than an hour.
When Jian Yu returned, Huo Qizhen was already asleep on the sofa.
Jian Yu quickly took out a blanket from the side and covered him with it.
Huo Qizhen woke up as soon as the blanket was put on.
"Are you done with your work?"
"Um."
Huo Qizhen pulled Jian Yu away.
On the way back, Huo Qizhen fell asleep in the car again.
Jian Yu looked at the dark circles under his eyes and couldn't help but feel sorry for him. She wanted to ask the driver to slow down so that he could sleep a little longer, but she was worried that sleeping for too long would cause his back to hurt.
More than twenty minutes after the car stopped at the living room door, Huo Qizhen finally woke up.
As soon as he woke up, Jian Yu pulled him back to the bedroom. "Do you want to go straight to sleep, or take a shower before you sleep? If you want to take a shower, I'll run the bathwater for you."
Huo Qizhen grabbed her arm. "No need, you can lie down with me for a while."
The large hand gripped the person very tightly.
Jian Yu couldn't refuse him, so she had no choice but to lie down next to him.
Huo Qizhen held her in his arms, smelling her scent, and soon fell asleep.
Jian Yu looked at him sleeping soundly and gently tucked the blanket around him.
Huo Qizhen slept until midnight.
As soon as he woke up, Jian Yu also woke up.
Huo Qizhen felt a little guilty. "I'm sorry! Are you hungry?"
He helped Jian Yu put on her coat and then took her downstairs to the restaurant.
The maids in the restaurant hadn't finished their shift yet.
Seeing them arrive, I quickly set out the food.
Huo Qizhen was in a good mood, so he had someone open a bottle of red wine.
Jian Yu drank a few cups with him.
Since Jian Yu's alcohol tolerance had increased recently, Huo Qizhen didn't stop her.
Before the meal was even over, Jian Yu's face was already flushed.
He was clearly a little drunk.
Jian Yu felt a bit hot, so she took off her coat.
Huo Qizhen looked at her flushed face, his eyes burning with desire.
He put down his wine glass and carried the person upstairs.
Jian Yu muttered softly, "I'm thirsty."
Huo Qizhen quickly poured her some water.
Jian Yu reached out to take the cup, but Huo Qizhen had already brought the water to his lips.
Jian Yu finished the water in the glass in one gulp. "My head hurts a little."
These words instantly extinguished any romantic feelings Huo Qizhen had.
He blamed himself, saying, "I forgot you can't hold your liquor."
The restaurant's maid, who was about to leave work, started cooking hangover soup again.
Jian Yu was upset all night, and Huo Qizhen also didn't sleep a wink.
The next day, Jian Yu woke up and saw Huo Qizhen's sleeping face.
All she could think of was him blaming himself for her drunken state that night.
Unconsciously, I touched Huo Qizhen's eyebrows and eyes. How could there be such a handsome and considerate person in the world?
And this person still belongs to her.
Gently resting her head on his shoulder, Jian Yu felt utterly content...
Huo Qizhen rolled over and instinctively pulled Jian Yu into a tight embrace.
Before falling asleep again, I mumbled a question to her in my sleep: "Does your head still hurt?"
Jian Yu silently smiled, her eyes filled with a happy grin.
"It doesn't hurt anymore, go to sleep!"
As soon as he said those words, Huo Qizhen, who was still slightly frowning in his sleep, completely relaxed.
Jian Yu closed her eyes with a smile, preparing to take another nap!
