Chapter 9: Waking Up
Three years ago, Fu Zheng took Chu Siyi back to the old house.
She was still in college at that time. Although the school was far away from the old house, she still insisted on going back every day so as not to miss his occasional visit.
She didn't miss that day.
She saw with her own eyes that Fu Zheng introduced Chu Siyi to his family as his girlfriend.
Saw them hugging and kissing in the back garden.
She thought that she could only watch him from afar for the rest of her life.
The day she married Fu Zheng, she even thought she was dreaming.
Since it is a dream, there will always be a day when we wake up.
Chu Siyi was the one who woke her up.
Wen Liang felt a subtle pain in his heart and smiled faintly, "Long time no see, Miss Chu looks even more radiant and charming."
Now, she was afraid that she would never be able to call her "Second Sister-in-law" again.
Chu Siyi smiled and said, "Thank you, you too. By the way, Aliang, do you like that LX autographed record? I heard that you like LX before, and she happened to be a friend I met abroad. When I returned home this time, I specially asked her to sign it for you."
Wen Liang was struck by lightning. She was always calm and composed, but at this moment, she was confused and at a loss.
It's like a clown, being watched by everyone and bringing countless jokes to everyone.
She looked at Fu Zheng hesitantly, with some pleading in her eyes.
How she wished Fu Zheng could tell her that Chu Siyi was wrong, that he was the one who bought the gift and had someone do it specially.
Fu Zheng looked at her indifferently, but his words stabbed her heart like a knife, "Why? You don't like the gift Siyi brought you?"
Wen Liang's face was wooden and he couldn't make any expression.
After a long while, she calmed down and said calmly, "Let's talk about the past in private. Everyone has been waiting for a long time, so let's hurry up and sit down to talk business."
"Okay." Chu Siyi turned to Fu Zheng and said, "Zheng, go back to the office. Remember to have lunch together at noon."
"Um."
Wen Liang looked at his back, her mouth felt bitter, and she felt so uncomfortable that she couldn't breathe.
She actually thought that Fu Zheng had some intentions towards her.
She actually thought that Fu Zheng had some feelings for her.
How ridiculous.
…
The meeting ended at three o'clock in the afternoon, and the two teams shook hands with each other.
Wen Liang sorted out the folder in front of him and said, "Thank you all for your hard work. I'll treat you all to a meal. There's a new hot pot restaurant downstairs. It's very authentic."
Chu Siyi's agent, Wang Yan, said, "Okay, then I'd be remiss to refuse."
The staff from both sides responded, politely exchanged greetings, and went to the elevator together.
Wang Yan asked, "Siyi, Mr. Fu said he wants to have dinner with you, why not invite him along?"
Chu Siyi smiled and said, "I'll go ask. Ah Zheng may not agree."
"How could that be? He's so nice to you."
Chu Siyi's assistant joked, "Sister Siyi, don't be so modest. What's your relationship with Mr. Fu? As soon as you returned to China, Mr. Fu gave you the MQ endorsement. Doesn't this prove something?"
"Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense," Chu Siyi glanced at Wen Liang embarrassedly, "Aliang, take them down first, Azheng and I will be here later."
Looking at the smile on her face, Wen Liang felt a pang in his heart. He nodded silently, put the folder back in the office, and went to the hot pot restaurant downstairs with others to book a private room. He simply ordered some side dishes and started to liven up the atmosphere.
This is her job, and she is already very good at it.
The dinner table became lively, with staff from both sides talking and laughing.
Wang Yan turned the topic to Wen Liang. "I've heard of Director Wen's name for a long time. He must have been in this industry for quite a while, right?"
The product manager immediately answered, smiling and patting Wen Liang on the shoulder, a look of pride on his face. "Not long, just three years. Don't underestimate Director Wen's youth; he's very capable. Last year's popular MOBA mobile game, War of Legends, hired Director Wen as its marketing consultant."
Wang Yan wasn't interested in that and asked, "That does seem impressive, but I heard Director Wen is President Fu's sister?"
The product manager had a dark face and said nothing.
This sounds like Director Wen taking a backdoor approach.
"You can say that grandpa has raised me." Wen Liang said with a smile.
"It's not easy to be trained personally by Chairman Fu." Wang Yan said with a smile.
There was a vague hint in the words, and not only the product manager, but also the other staff members looked gloomy.
Wen Liang's expression remained calm. "My father and grandfather were close friends regardless of age difference. That's why I'm lucky enough not to end up living on the streets."
"Oh? Isn't it because your father donated his liver to Chairman Fu?" Wang Yan asked.
