24: I think your husband has some mental issues.
Pei Yanxiu rushed into the kitchen to cook noodles for Shang Zhi, feeling a little regretful. He wondered if he had been too strict with her these past few days and had underestimated her ability to cope.
He quickly prepared a bowl of noodles, brought it directly to the bedside, and sat down to feed her.
After eating half a bowl of noodles, Shang Zhi's complexion improved considerably.
"Don't go to the office tomorrow. You need to rest now."
"No, I have to go. I have so many things to do."
"Mom and Dad have entrusted Ruikang to me. I can handle it, Uncle Pei."
Pei Yanxiu's feelings were complicated. He felt sorry for her, but he also knew that this was an inevitable part of everyone's growth. Of course, he could stand by her side, hug her gently, and tell her that he could actually help her out, and that he could just invest more money. But if he did that, she would never grow up and would always feel that she didn't have to take responsibility.
She is Ruikang's heir; she can't be so easily defeated.
Many, many times, we can only walk through the long night alone.
But while that's what he said on the surface, he still took many actions in private, using almost all his connections to find out what the current situation of PPS was, where there was any stock left, and managed to get some more for her.
When Shang Zhi arrived at the company in the morning, she found two small children had entered her office at some point and were climbing up and down her desk and chair.
“Whose children are you? Don’t climb here, it’s not safe.” She gently lifted the two children off the table, her voice tender.
Looking at her soft and cuddly baby, her mood improved considerably.
Kids are so cute, unlike those old guys in the company, they're all cunning!
"Sister." The little girl being held by Shang Zhi giggled, only then remembering that the two of them were from Jiang Dayuan's family.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Shang, my wife went to the hospital today. These two children came with me. I was just looking for Mr. Chen to sign some papers and they slipped in without me noticing. I'm sorry to have troubled you." Jiang Dayuan also came in from outside at this moment.
"Get down here. Didn't I tell you not to bother others?"
"It's okay." Shang Zhi gently squeezed the little girl's soft little arm.
"When Mr. Jiang is busy with work in the future, you can leave your child in the rest area on the 17th floor. I will tell the receptionist there to pay more attention to the child's safety."
"Thank you, Mr. Shang. Actually, I came here today because I have something to discuss with you."
“I know the company is currently short of PPS. I have an old comrade who specializes in this, and I've discussed it with him. We can still offer us the same price as before. Don't worry, the specifications are the same as before. My old friend isn't a small workshop; he has a certain reputation in the industry, and the quality is fully guaranteed.”
"What, what did you say?" Shang Zhi was a little excited, and even doubted that she had heard correctly. She never expected that Jiang Dayuan would help her at such an important juncture.
"Mr. Shang, we've become friends through a misunderstanding. Although we had some misunderstandings before, I know that the money transferred to my account and the hospital that came to my house to treat my wife were all arranged by you privately."
"You may not know this, but my wife's legs are much better than before. The doctor said there is a possibility that she can stand up again."
When he spoke of his wife, tears welled up in the eyes of this rough man, and his voice trembled slightly.
"Speaking of which, money is truly a wonderful thing."
Shang Zhi hugged the little girl sitting in her lap. When her father mentioned her mother, the little girl seemed to be thinking about something.
"Thank you, Mr. Jiang."
“You really helped me a lot. You know how important this is to Tiancui.”
“You’ve really helped me a lot. My wife has been getting happier and happier these days. Once the project is finished, we’ll invite you to our home for dinner.”
"must."
With Jiang Dayuan's introduction, Shang Zhi successfully negotiated the amount with the manufacturer. She immediately shared this news with Pei Yanxiu, and then had Mingyu inform everyone that the Tiancui project was proceeding normally and that everyone could rest assured.
I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
She hadn't realized that helping Jiang Dayuan was also helping herself.
【Xixi, you did a great job. I knew you could do it.】 Pei Yanxiu’s message came quickly. Before Shang Zhi could reply, her phone vibrated again. She picked it up and saw that it was from Yu Qing.
[Ah Zhi? Are you there? I just arrived in Hong Kong. If it's convenient for you, would you do me the honor of having a simple meal with me?]
[Yu Qing, what brings you here?]
The dance troupe is performing in Hong Kong this week. Would you like to come if you're free? Ah Zhi, I just got off the plane. Is it convenient for you to come find me?
"Sure, I'll send you an address, let's go grab a coffee."
Shang Zhi instantly forgot about Pei Yanxiu's information.
Shang Zhi had heard about Yu Qing's upcoming performance in Hong Kong before, but she didn't expect it to happen so soon. She quickly tidied herself up and went out, not noticing Pei Yanxiu's car waiting for her in the corner.
"President Pei, President Shang went that way, should we follow?" The driver secretly observed Pei Yanxiu's expression. This boss was unpredictable, and was notoriously difficult to work with in the entire Hong Kong Island. Working for him always required being on your best.
However, the salary and benefits are much higher than those of similar employees, which is why he has never resigned.
"and."
Pei Yanxiu seemed to be in a bad mood. He had originally wanted to come and celebrate with Shang Zhi as soon as possible to share the joy, but she didn't seem to care about him at all.
The air pressure inside the car is very low.
"Yu Qing!"
"Ah Zhi! Long time no see!" At the entrance of the coffee shop, Yu Qing gently patted Shang Zhi's shoulder, which made Pei Yanxiu, who was sitting in the car, furious. He frowned repeatedly, crossed his long legs, and tapped his fingers on his leg. The driver in front secretly watched the drama unfold but didn't dare to say a word.
"Ah Zhi, how have you been these days? If you haven't been, tell me! I think your husband has some mental issues!"
Shang Zhi was amused and wanted to laugh, but she also agreed with Yu Qing's opinion to some extent. He could monitor her, what else could he be but a pervert?
"I'm fine. Although I've encountered a lot of difficulties recently, things are going very well so far! I think once I've sorted out the company matters and everything is back on track, I'll go back to finish my studies."
"real?"
"Of course, that is my dream after all, and I think I have to give it a result."
"That's great, Zhi! I thought you'd never come back!"
When Yu Qing got excited, he picked up Shang Zhi and spun her around several times, making Shang Zhi dizzy.
"Yu Qing, what are you doing? Put me down!"
They couldn't hear what Pei Yanxiu was saying in his car, but they could clearly see their movements. The driver gasped when he saw them going around in circles and secretly looked in the rearview mirror to see how Pei Yanxiu would react.
He was still tapping his fingers rhythmically.
Yu Qing and Shang Zhi chatted for a long time, discussing their general plans in Hong Kong and even suggesting they go to Disneyland together after the performance.
When Shang Zhi finished her coffee, she glanced up and caught a glimpse of a familiar car outside the window, with the window half-lowered.
She could vaguely see the person inside, shrouded in shadow.
My heart suddenly tightened.
She didn't know how long he'd been there, or why she hadn't noticed him when she arrived. He hadn't even uttered a sound. What a jerk!
"Azhi, what's wrong?"
"Nothing? I... I probably have to go home. Yu Qing, let's talk again next time."
Shang Zhi reluctantly got into Pei Yanxiu's car. She originally wanted to pretend she didn't see him, but he was clearly coming for her. Pretending not to see him would only make her suffer more.
"Uncle Pei, what brings you here? You didn't even tell me you were coming. I came here to buy a cup of coffee."
“There are seven coffee shops downstairs at Ruikang, and you like three of them. What, have you changed your taste?” Pei Yanxiu’s tone was clearly suppressing his anger. He had been waiting for her here for two hours, and she came up here and started making things up.
They're not afraid of breaking their teeth.
And that guy surnamed He, he even dared to hug her and spin her around. He wished he could break his hands off!
"This place is newly opened, and I'm curious to try it out."
Pei Yanxiu paused, chuckled, and then pulled Shang Zhi over and pressed her onto his knees. He slapped her buttocks twice, fiercely and hard, and Shang Zhi's face instantly turned as red as the evening glow.
"Lies come out of their mouths without warning."
