Chapter 328 Xu Ge, Casual and Free
Zhou Chen raised his thin lips, pressed the back of her head and kissed the corner of her lips.
"That's right."
Xu Ge hummed softly and turned to look at his desk, "Are you done?"
"not yet."
"How much longer?"
"An hour?"
"Okay, then you go ahead and do your work. I won't bother you anymore."
Zhou Chen patted her waist, and Xu Ge got up from his arms and walked to the sofa. She had long regarded the office as her living room.
He took off his shoes and lay down on the sofa. Anyway, no one else usually came into his office, and those who could come in were all acquaintances.
Xu Ge took out the headphones and mobile phone from his bag and started watching TV series.
I've been so busy lately that I don't have time to watch TV series.
Zhou Chen curled the corners of his lips when he saw her relaxed and carefree look, which was much better than the nervousness, restraint and discomfort she had felt in the first year after arriving at the Zhou family.
The current Xu Ge is what he wants to see.
Casual and free.
Although Xu Ge's eyes were fixed on her phone, she could feel his gaze on her.
"Why are you looking at me? At work? What do I have to look good at?"
"You're prettier than anything else to me."
Xu Ge paused and turned to look at him.
The two looked at each other, but no one spoke. They just smiled and looked away.
Time passed quickly, and Zhou Chen had completed today's finishing work in the time it took to complete an episode of a TV series.
Xu Ge didn't look up until the headphones were taken off. "Okay?"
Zhou Chen nodded, "What do you want to eat?"
Xu Ge thought for a moment and asked, "Is it okay to eat hot pot?"
"good."
Zhou Chen took their coats off the hanger, put on his own suit first, and then looked at her.
Xu Ge walked over, opened her arms slightly, and put on her clothes with his help.
"Let's go."
When the people in the secretary's office saw the two of them coming out arm in arm, they all stood up and greeted them.
"Mr. Zhou, goodbye, Madam."
Zhou Chen didn't respond, but Xu Ge smiled and waved goodbye to them.
"Bye-Bye."
It wasn't until they got into the elevator that Xu Ge said, "You're too cold to your employees."
“Do you know how many employees the company has?”
"You know?"
"Know."
Xu Ge: “…” It was indeed quite unexpected.
"Is this true?"
"If I responded to everyone, I'd probably be busier than the lucky cat at the hotel front desk."
Xu Ge was stunned for a few seconds before he reacted and immediately burst into joy.
"Pfft, that's true. Even if it's not a lucky cat, it's still a nodding machine."
“So, treat everyone equally.”
Xu Ge blinked and turned to look at him, "Zhou Zimo greets him normally, but you don't even respond?"
"Um."
Xu Ge nodded, "As expected, everyone is treated equally."
The elevator door opened, but Xu Ge paused when he saw the people outside the elevator.
I thought to myself that I really can’t talk about people behind their backs…
Zhou Zimo was about to go in with the documents in his hand when he saw the two people in the elevator and stopped in his tracks.
His gaze swept across Xu Ge's face and finally landed on Zhou Chen's face.
"Uncle."
Zhou Chen looked at him calmly.
Zhou Zimo pursed his lips. He was not unfamiliar with this kind of look, the invisible sense of oppression.
It's more like a silent warning and threat.
Zhou Zimo silently clenched the documents in his hand and looked at Xu Ge, "Aunt."
Xu Ge: “…”
She looked at Zhou Zimo flattered. Although she didn't know what had stimulated this man, she still smiled and nodded.
After hearing the call of "Aunt", Zhou Chen took Xu Ge out of the elevator, and then walked past Zhou Zimo without looking at him.
Zhou Zimo didn't look back, but just listened silently to the footsteps of the two people leaving together and gritted his teeth.
The front desk staff greeted them happily when they saw them.
"Mr. Zhou, Madam!"
Hearing the voice, Xu Ge turned around and waved to them with a smile.
"Wow, what a handsome man and beautiful woman! Every time I see them walking together, it's a visual feast. How did they get to be so handsome and beautiful?"
"Reincarnation is a skill, I can't envy it."
After walking out of the company gate, Xu Ge turned around to look at him, "What happened to him just now?"
"It's okay." Zhou Chen whispered to her.
"Okay, then where should we go to eat?" He took out his cell phone and started looking for it.
"The Sir's house is still there. How about we eat there? I haven't been to his house for a long time."
"As you say."
The two went to the Beijing Jueye Hot Pot Restaurant, but while eating, Xu Ge received a message from Qin Lei.
At this moment, she had already eaten and was eating dessert. She stared at the message for a long time and then replied to him with a question mark.
Zhou Chen saw her staring at her phone without blinking, "What are you looking at?"
Xu Ge turned the phone around to show him, "Lei Zi sent me a message three minutes ago, but I didn't understand what it meant."
Zhou Chen took a quick look and then looked away, "Maybe it was an accidental bump."
Looking at this string of garbled characters, it really seems like something I came across accidentally.
So she waited for three minutes and put away her phone after receiving no reply from Qin Lei.
"I'm full, shall we go?"
Zhou Chen picked up his coat and stood up. Xu Ge also stood up, paid the bill and left.
On the way back, passing by the Chi Group, Xu Ge's eyes flashed slightly and he turned his head to look at the person in the driver's seat.
"What's the situation with the Chi family now? I heard from Sister Min that Miss Chi rejected your proposal?"
"Um."
"So you're just going to let it go?"
"Won't."
"If it were me, I wouldn't want to give my company to others," said Xu Ge.
Zhou Chen glanced at her sideways, "If it were you, what would you do?"
Xu Ge fantasized for a moment, then thought for a moment before saying, "I will also reject your merger and acquisition conditions."
Zhou Chen seemed to be interested, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Oh?"
Xu Ge supported his chin with his left hand and said softly: "I will find a suitable person to marry, and we will both get what we need."
Zhou Chen chuckled softly upon hearing this, "What constitutes a suitable person?"
Xu Ge frowned. "I've also come into contact with those people in the financial street in Country M. They all have executive CEOs who specialize in helping others manage their companies. If it were me, I would hire someone, or find a suitable person to marry, and negotiate the terms in advance. It's much better than being acquired by someone else."
Zhou Chen's lips curved slightly, "It seems that your four years in Country M haven't been wasted."
Xu Ge curled his lips, "Unfortunately, I'm not Miss Chi. She might not be able to do what I can do. After all, she's devoted to you. Asking her to marry someone else would be like cutting out her heart..."
Zhou Chen patted her head and said calmly, "Speak properly."
"How's the investigation going?"
Xu Ge knew he was asking about Xu Hongsheng's case. "So far, it's going pretty smoothly, but it still takes time."
"Do you need help?"
Xu Ge turned to look at him, "Do you have any clues?"
"So do you want it?"
Xu Ge looked at him quietly for a long time and then turned his head. "No, I want to rely on our own abilities to investigate cases. If I rely on you every time, it doesn't matter whether this detective agency is open or not. We still have to work without you."
Zhou Chen didn't force it, "Okay, whatever you want."
