As for the positions in the Information Administration Bureau, Lin Ling could become a special envoy from any of them if she wanted to, especially since Zhou Siyu also contributed to the newly implemented grading system.
Therefore, Zhou Siyu deserves all of this.
"You should have told me beforehand." Zhou Siyu bit into her meat, glared at Yu Wei, and muttered in dissatisfaction, "Luckily I washed up. If I had just gone out in slippers and a tank top, how embarrassing would that have been..."
“You look good in anything.” Yu Wei took out a tissue to wipe the grease from the corner of his mouth and grinned. “My wife is so beautiful, she looks good even in a bed sheet.”
"Is that the point?" Zhou Siyu was flattered by the praise, but she still kept a straight face. "You and Uncle Lin didn't even ask for my opinion before using me as free labor. Is that appropriate?"
"I didn't have time to do it." Yu Wei fawned over Zhou Siyu, placing the chicken leg from his plate onto Zhou Siyu's plate and grinning shamelessly. "These are all so that it will be more convenient for you to stay here. You don't have to do anything."
"Will I get paid?" Zhou Siyu asked, biting into a chicken leg without any hesitation. "I feel bad taking up space without doing any work, but I don't want to work for free either..."
"Yes, I'll give you all my money as your salary."
Yu Wei chuckled and eagerly handed Zhou Siyu various meats from the plate, watching him eat with a smile as he rested his chin on his hand.
"That's more like it."
Zhou Siyu nodded in satisfaction. He wanted to see how much money Yu Wei had to pay him to work for him.
After all, he's a CEO worth hundreds of billions, the kind who can earn tens of billions in a minute.
However, in the current chaotic situation, money alone is useless; in fact, it makes one more vulnerable to being targeted.
"I see you're assembling troops. Are you planning to attack somewhere?"
Zhou Siyu tried to hide the disappointment in her tone and pretended to be nonchalant as she buried her head in her food.
"Yes, I was just about to tell you." Yu Wei nodded, lowered his eyes, then looked up at Zhou Siyu. "This time I might be gone for a while, you'll be here..."
"I'm fine." Zhou Siyu raised her head, forcing a smile that looked worse than a grimace, and took a deep breath to suppress the surging emotions in her heart. "Go ahead, don't worry about me, I can... take care of myself."
"I..." A thousand words were stuck in his throat, but he couldn't utter a single one. Yu Wei opened his mouth, but in the end, he only managed to utter a few words: "I'm sorry, I..."
"No need to apologize, you have your own things to do." Zhou Siyu pursed her lips, picked up the cup, swirled it slightly in her hand, and smiled slightly. Her fan-like eyelashes covered her eyes as she pretended to be relaxed and said, "I'm better off without you nagging me."
"Stay here and relax. If anything happens, just go to Wu Ming or Qin Ge." Yu Wei placed his hand on the back of Zhou Siyu's left hand, which was resting on the table, and gently stroked it. "I promise I'll be back soon and won't keep you waiting too long..."
"It's okay, really." Zhou Siyu leaned forward slightly, lowered her head, and pressed her face against Yu Wei's hand. "No matter how long it takes, I'll wait for you."
“Well, after this mission is over, I’ll step down to a second-line commander position and won’t be on the front lines anymore.” Yu Wei sat down next to Zhou Siyu and pulled him into his arms. “Then I’ll have more time to spend with you.”
"You really didn't need to do this..."
Zhou Siyu broke free from Yu Wei's embrace, raised her head, and eagerly tried to express her true feelings, but was interrupted by Yu Wei.
“We have to leave a way out for young people.” Yu Wei smiled and gently pinched Zhou Siyu’s nose. “The alliance has many promising young talents. We can’t let them be ordinary soldiers for the rest of their lives.”
“Chairman Yu, you’ve been eating for an hour and a half, and the food is all cold.”
Qin Ge and Wu Ming watched from afar for a long time, neither of them wanting to be the third wheel. However, the troops were already prepared, and they couldn't postpone their departure just because the commander was in a relationship.
"Well... I'm leaving." Yu Wei stood up, kissed Zhou Siyu's forehead, and sighed softly. "Take good care of yourself and the child."
"Okay, go ahead."
Zhou Siyu waved her hand and turned her head away, no longer looking at him.
"I'm leaving this place to you."
Yu Wei composed himself, straightened his clothes, put on his hat, and strode away.
Wu Ming quickly followed, leaving Zhou Siyu and Qin Ge behind.
"Don't be too sad. Maybe he'll be back in a day or two."
Qin Ge scratched his head, unable to think of a single word of comfort.
"Which eye of yours saw me sad?" Zhou Siyu picked up her glass, drank half of it in one gulp, and slammed the glass down on the table. "I'm not sad."
What's there to be sad about? All good things must come to an end.
Besides, Yu Wei will always come back, and they will meet again. That's enough. Why worry about parting?
Each parting deepens the longing and strengthens the bond between the two. What's wrong with that?
