Chapter 36 - The first day after waking up in a bed



The next day, Zhou Ziyi, who was complaining about being sleepy, got up early in the morning.

He was very confused when he woke up. He turned off the alarm on his cell phone and it took him a while to remember where this weird place was.

He sat up yawning, turned his head, and found Yan Xiuzhi one meter away from him.

——Okay, it’s worthy of being the president’s king-size bed, so I don’t have to worry about more people coming up and sharing the bed.

Zhou Ziyi sat at the head of the bed. Although he was up, he didn't want to move. He just wanted to sit there and relax. But in order to prevent himself from falling asleep again, Zhou Ziyi didn't dare to lean too comfortably. He just lowered his head and closed his eyes.

"What are you doing up so early?"

Yan Xiuji's voice suddenly sounded, a little hoarse, startling Zhou Ziyi. Zhou Ziyi opened his eyes and woke up completely: "Ah, good morning, Mr. Yan. Did the alarm wake you up? Sorry."

Yan Xiuji looked at his phone and asked, "It's not even seven o'clock yet, and you're already up?"

"Well, I'll go get some hand-ground coffee for you and Auntie, and order some takeout for breakfast..." Zhou Ziyi yawned as he spoke, and then he suddenly leaned over to Yan Xiuzhi, not knowing what he was thinking of.

Yan Xiuji:!!!

Zhou Ziyi almost lay down beside Yan Xiuji's pillow, stretched out his hand to pull his eyes, and stared at him very closely. Yan Xiuji, who was still a little hazy at first, was also awakened by the shock, and subconsciously asked: "What are you doing?"

"Look at your eyes." Zhou Ziyi said, "Do they seem to be getting a little better? Or maybe it's too dark and I can't see clearly..."

Yan Xiuji stretched out his hand and turned on the bedside lamp, then turned his head away uncomfortably: "Stay away from me."

Zhou Ziyi propped his chin up beside his pillow and looked at him with a smile: "Brother, are you shy?"

Yan Xiuji turned his head and looked back at him: "You haven't brushed your teeth yet."

Zhou Ziyi: “…”

"Brother, forget about me, but never say that to your wife in the same bed with you in the future." Zhou Ziyi got up in frustration, "If your wife gets up early in the morning to make you breakfast and you say that before she kisses you, it's a sure death sentence!"

Yan Xiuji glanced at him: "I didn't ask you to get up early in the morning to make breakfast for me."

"Brother, you can't say that. It's a double kill! You're really good at stepping on landmines." Zhou Ziyi got off the bed. "I remind you again, your wife cooks for you, you just need to thank her and be grateful, don't say those words."

"What are you thinking about?" Yan Xiuji asked, "I mean you don't have to insist on getting up to make breakfast. I didn't stipulate this."

"It was fine before. Anyway, I didn't have anything to do at home. After I got rid of you, I could go to bed." Zhou Ziyi yawned and walked to the cloakroom. "I didn't plan to be here so early today, but isn't your mother here?"

Yan Xiuji was stunned for a second, then said, "Don't worry about that."

Zhou Ziyi had already gone into the cloakroom. Hearing this, he poked his head out and said, "Brother, if you answer some questions incorrectly, you won't lose points, but you will lose your life. If you say something like this in front of your wife in the future, you will definitely stir up conflicts between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Don't do that."

"I'm talking about you, don't keep talking nonsense to me." Yan Xiuji said, "Why do you always put yourself in the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law?"

Zhou Ziyi probably got bolder after having slept with the big CEO for one night, so he said, "Am I not your 'wife' now?"

After saying this, he shrank his head at the speed of light.

President Yan was shocked and speechless by his words. After a long while, he managed to utter: "...You will have no pocket money for next month!"

"No, Mr. Yan!" Zhou Ziyi, who had just taken off the buttons of his pajamas, was startled and immediately jumped out again, "I was just kidding, I was wrong! Mr. Yan, may you have great fortune for generations to come!"

He rushed out with his chest exposed. Yan Xiuji glanced at him and didn't even bother to complain about his nonsense: "Put on your clothes!"

Zhou Ziyi pulled his pajamas together on the spot: "Brother, please don't deduct my pocket money."

Yan Xiuji: "If you bother me again, I will really deduct my money."

Zhou Ziyi ran away.

***

As expected, Chu Ling woke up before the couple went out. Zhou Ziyi served her a cup of hand-ground coffee with double the amount of sugar, and then reported that he was ready to go out.

"We will be back later after seeing the eyes." Zhou Ziyi said, "Brother Yan has to go to work tomorrow. Black sunglasses are a bit too much. Let's go to the eyewear store to have a look."

"Okay, go ahead." Chu Ling waved her hand. "You guys can just rest anyway, so go out on a date and don't rush back. How can I starve to death at my age? I'll go out to party with friends later, and I don't know what time I'll be back, so don't worry about me all the time."

Yan Xiuji asked, "Do you have any arrangements for a car?"

Chu Ling looked nonchalant: "Why not just book a ride online?"

This wealthy lady and wife is quite casual.

Yan Xiuji thought for a moment and said, "If it's inconvenient, tell me and I'll send someone to pick you up."

"No problem, let's go." Chu Ling paused, and then said, "If your uncle calls and asks you, just tell him that I'm fine and don't worry. He asked me twice to go back and live there, but I refused. If I go back, your grandfather will control me and even scold me."

Yan Xiuji said: "Grandpa is doing this for your own good."

Chu Ling: "Are you two trying to piss me off? Go away!"

Only then did Yan Xiuji and Zhou Ziyi go out.

***

When entering the hospital, Zhou Ziyi was worried that Yan Xiuzhi had "misjudged the distance" again, so he forcibly held his hand.

This attracted a lot of peeking from the little girls waiting for vaccination, who almost took out their phones to take pictures. Yan Xiuji noticed the gazes of others and felt a little uncomfortable, so he wanted to take the opportunity to let go of his hand. But Zhou Ziyi held on tightly, and even stopped to wait for him when he came to the steps, so Yan Xiuji had no chance to let go of him.

Forget it, just ignore other people's gazes.

Zhou Ziyi was so cautious, and the doctor said that there was nothing wrong after examining him. He prescribed eye wash solution, eye drops, and erythromycin eye ointment, and that was it.

Zhou Ziyi: "No drip?"

Doctor: "We don't recommend this now. Don't do it if it's not necessary."

Zhou Ziyi: "Then it doesn't matter if he can't see clearly and falls?"

Doctor: “How often?”

Yan Xiuji: "Just once, now I can see it clearly."

Doctor: "Then don't worry about it for now. It's not a big deal in the first place. If you make a big fuss about it, it will become a big deal."

Well, since the experts said so, we had to keep doing what we had done before. Zhou Ziyi went to get the medicine, and it was done quickly.

On the way, he went to the glasses store and bought a pair of brown sunglasses for President Yan to wear at work. When trying on the glasses, Zhou Ziyi deliberately wore a pair of pink sunglasses to tease him, and asked "President Yan, do you want to try a new look?", but President Yan ignored him.

Then when checking out, Mr. Yan bought the pink glasses and handed them to Zhou Ziyi.

Zhou Ziyi: “…” Okay, so you just want me to dress up and entertain your parents, right?

This trip only takes two hours, which is fast, and he can still get home in time for lunch. Zhou Ziyi checked the time, called Aunt Wang, and talked a lot. Yan Xiuji could tell that he was just checking and didn't make any requests. So when he hung up the phone, Mr. Yan asked, "Did you tell the housekeeping what dishes to make?"

"Yes, I sent you a message this morning." Zhou Ziyi said, "I still vaguely remember what we had when we went to your house that day. I felt that your aunt didn't like anything too spicy, so I told the housekeeping. But I didn't know what to do specifically, so I asked about the situation."

Yan Xiuji was quite surprised: "You actually remember the dishes from that day?"

"I remember, I remember you picked up two pieces of pork ribs for me!" Zhou Ziyi laughed, "They were delicious."

"..." Yan Xiuji looked away, "If you want to eat, tell the housekeeper. It's no use telling me."

"Ah, the taste is one thing, the intention of the person who picks up the food is another..." Zhou Ziyi chatted half-jokingly while checking his phone, then suddenly raised an eyebrow, "Hmm?"

Yan Xiuji heard his voice suddenly turn cold, and subconsciously turned back to look at him: "What's wrong?"

Zhou Ziyi directly handed the phone to him: "Look."

Yan Xiuji glanced around and saw that the phone screen was fixed on someone's information interface.

It turned out to be a message from Yan Meiyue.

President Yan glanced at Zhou Ziyi and asked, "Why are you still in contact with her?"

"It's unfair, brother!" Zhou Ziyi pointed at the words on the interface, "Look here, I added a friend right in front of your house, right? I even reported it at the time. And then I didn't say a word... I mean I didn't send a single word on Xmail, and suddenly I got a message like this."

Moreover, this piece of information has nothing to do with the fact that Yan Meiyue had previously advised Zhou Ziyi to divorce on behalf of Yan Wenwu.

She sent: [Can you draw a picture for me? A4 color board drawing, no specific requirements, but I like the pictures of men in black suits that you posted on your Moments, the same style will do.]

Zhou Ziyi was really confused.

"What does she mean?" Zhou Ziyi asked, "She said that to me before and still wants to ask me for an article? No, she didn't even ask for the price. Is she planning to do it for free?"

Just after I asked, Yan Meiyue added another message: [Last time, I was asked by my third uncle to do that. I had no choice. I will try my best to speak well of you in the future. My third uncle is just angry. He will slowly get over it after he calms down. After all, family harmony is the most important thing. My third uncle and my brother must think so. It’s just that they are a little embarrassed now because they are angry.]

Then there is another one: [At times like this, we, the younger generation, need to work harder! ]

Zhou Ziyi: “…”

With a blank face, he held up his phone to show Yan Xiuji: "What on earth does she want to do? She wants me to kneel down and ask her for help in order to get your dad to recognize me?"

Yan Xiuji sneered when he saw the words "family harmony". If his father wanted family harmony, he would not have thought of holding a board meeting to dethrone his own son while he was getting married and on his honeymoon.

The older Yan Wenwu gets, the more stubborn he becomes. He still thinks that most of the board members are his people. However, Yan Xiuji has been in charge of Huahao Group for less than ten years, and he has already gained power with the help of the major shareholder Chu family. Yan Wenwu still wants to be the emperor who commands the country, which is simply a pipe dream.

What he wants to do, not only will he not get a majority of votes, he may not even get the proportion to call for a board meeting.

"Yan Meiyue just wants to have her hands in both sides." Yan Xiuji said coldly, "Don't worry about her."

Zhou Ziyi said: "Then I should reply 'no time'?"

"No need to reply." Yan Xiuji paused, then said, "It's okay to block me."

"Okay, I'll follow your instructions." Zhou Ziyi smiled and exited the message interface. "By the way, brother, I have nothing to do recently, so I will go back to work and paint, okay?"

Yan Xiuji: "It's up to you."

"Draw one for us?" Zhou Ziyi thought that since Chu Ling was here, he should do some "show" to show their affection. "Then print it out and hang it at home?"

Yan Xiuji: "...It's up to you."
