Fu Yanzhou smiled helplessly. What couple would hug for ten minutes if they had nothing to do?
Of course, he only thought about this in his mind, because she would be unhappy if he said it out loud.
Last time she made a wish for him to hold her for ten minutes, he didn't meet her request. So much time has passed, but she is still obsessed with it.
She was spoiled by Min Ting since she was a child. Min Ting always did what she wanted. Over time, she might feel that everyone in the family should indulge her unconditionally, including him.
It was he who took the initiative to ask her to make the request. Fu Yanzhou did not spoil her fun. He put down the glass and handed it to her.
Min Xi was slightly stunned. She had prepared herself mentally for his ridicule and sarcasm, but she didn't expect him to be so straightforward.
She quickly stood up from the bed, did not grab the hand he extended to her, but put her arms around his neck and threw herself into his arms from the bed.
Fu Yanzhou caught him, and the softness and faint fragrance filled his arms.
Min Xi turned off the floor lamp, and the room suddenly fell into darkness. She could not see anything. She tiptoed slightly and hung on his neck.
Slowly seeing the other person's face clearly, her scent lingering at his nose. Fu Yanzhou lowered his head and was about to kiss her, but Min Xi turned her head away, avoiding his lips.
"It's about hugging you for ten minutes, not kissing you for ten minutes."
Kissing is often accompanied by desire, and the entanglement of lips and tongues is not controlled by reason. After the bodies have felt it, who would care about hugging for a few minutes?
She simply wanted a hug, a hug without desire.
Min Xi took his arms off his neck and hugged his waist.
Fu Yanzhou lowered his eyes to look at her. She hugged him tightly, leaning in his arms without saying anything. Normally, she was rarely so quiet and so dependent on him.
An indescribable emotion instantly passed through his heart.
We hugged each other for more than ten minutes.
Fu Yanzhou patted her back gently: "It's okay."
Min Xi looked up in dissatisfaction, but before she could complain, Fu Yanzhou kissed her on the lips.
She bit his lips slightly and said, "Hold me for a while longer."
She sounded like she was acting coquettish when she said it. Fu Yanzhou couldn't understand her. Back then at home in Shanghai, she had covered his photo with a silk scarf so she didn't want to see it, and now she wanted him to hug her for a while longer.
Capricious and stubborn.
He stared at her for a moment, then took her in his arms again.
--
The next morning, Min Xi forced himself to open his eyes after the alarm rang twice.
Before going to bed last night, she said she could only do it once, and Fu Yanzhou didn't say anything. Later, they indeed only did it once, but it lasted longer than any previous time.
I got up half an hour later than usual today, had a simple breakfast and rushed to the company.
In the company parking lot, Min Xi met Ju Youyou.
Before Ju Youyou had parked the car, he rolled down the window and shouted to her, "Sister Min, wait for me to go upstairs together."
Min Xi locked the car: "No hurry, just back up slowly."
Ju Youyou has had her driver's license for less than a year, and her reversing skills are worse than hers.
Finally, after backing the car into the parking space, Ju Youyou breathed a sigh of relief, unbuckled his seat belt and hurriedly got out of the car.
Seeing the familiar big diamond ring on Min Xi's ring finger, I felt relieved.
"Is the ring setting adjusted?"
"No, there's no need to adjust it." Min Xi smiled and said, "I don't know where it fell yesterday, and I was in a hurry to go to work so I didn't look for it."
The two chatted and entered the elevator.
Ju Youyou first went to the floor where Min Xi's office was, and then to the floor where the president's office was.
As Yu Chengtan's secretary, Ju Youyou never talks about her boss's schedule with other colleagues, but Min Xi is an exception.
"If Mr. Yu doesn't come to the company in the morning, I can relax for a few hours."
Being relaxed means slacking off.
The two of them laughed knowingly.
The elevator stopped on the first floor and the door slowly opened. The person waiting for the elevator was Yan Yinan.
Yan Yinan is the director of the media department. He nodded slightly to Ju Youyou and ignored Min Xi who was standing behind Ju Youyou.
Min Xi worked in the media department for a year. Yan Yinan was once her immediate superior. The two had unpleasant experiences at work and the conflict was once irreconcilable.
In order to resolve the conflict, Yu Chengtan transferred her to the president's office as his assistant.
Since then, Yan Yinan would treat her as air when they met in the company, and she had gotten used to it. At that time, Ju Youyou had not come to the company yet, so she didn't know about the grievances involved.
Jiachen Public Relations' office area has three floors in total, located from the 20th to the 22nd floors of this office building. The media department was on the 20th floor. When the elevator stopped, Yan Yinan walked out with her back straight, wearing five-centimeter high heels and an expressionless face.
The elevator door closed, and Ju Youyou whispered, "They all say that Director Yan likes President Yu, but I don't know if it's true or not."
Before Min Xi could say anything, the elevator arrived at Min Xi's floor.
A colleague also came down from the elevator next door. Min Xi said nothing more and waved his hand and went down.
When she arrived at the office, she found out that the Crisis Public Relations Department had taken on a difficult crisis public relations case, and Yu Chengtan personally stepped in to solve it.
Min Xi was planning to report his work to Yu Chengtan in the afternoon, but he didn't come to the company that day.
When it was almost time to get off work, Min Xi received a message from Fu Yanzhou: [I won’t be home for dinner tonight, so you don’t have to wait for me. 】
Min Xi: [Social engagements? 】
Fu Yanzhou replied: [No. Get together with Yan Heyu and others. 】
He put down his phone and handed the document that needed to be signed to Secretary Bai.
Bai Shan stood quietly by the table waiting, her eyes inadvertently sweeping across the coffee table in the reception area. The wedding candy that Zhu Youran had sent last night was still on it. This morning when the aunt was cleaning the house, she specifically asked her whether she wanted to put away the box of wedding candy and where to put it.
They would not touch the boss's personal belongings without permission.
But it was not appropriate to leave the box of wedding candy on the coffee table all the time, so after Fu Yanzhou signed the documents, Bai Shan asked, "Mr. Fu, where is the box of wedding candy? In the car or in the cabinet?"
Fu Yanzhou paused for a few seconds and said, "Take it and divide it among you."
"Okay." Bai Shan took the box of wedding candy with her when she left.
Fu Yanzhou's phone vibrated again, and Yan Heyu asked: [You haven't come yet? 】
He replied: [Soon. 】
Yan Heyu had just returned from Jiangcheng and invited a few friends to have dinner together. Min Ting also went there.
Min Ting dislikes Fu Yanzhou because of his reputation. During his relationship with Lu Zhen, he cheated on two women in a row. Min Ting also heard about this recently.
Yan Heyu organized the party tonight to clarify the matter for Fu Yanzhou and to continue attracting investment for Jiangcheng.
The others were still on their way, so there were only him and Min Ting in the private room.
Min Ting held a cigarette in his mouth. He hadn't smoked a cigarette since his sister gave him an ashtray, but now he felt the urge to smoke.
Yan Heyu asked the waiter to turn on the purifier and poured out a cigarette.
"I ran into Lu Zhen when I went to Jiangcheng this time. Do you know Lu Zhen?"
Min Ting put his hand on the chair next to him, tapping it from time to time, and said, "I have seen it."
He had encountered Fu Yanzhou and Lu Zhen having dinner alone twice, both times were before his sister got married, and at that time their family had no plans for an alliance marriage.
To be precise, their family had never thought of letting their sister marry out. He and his father would not trade his sister's marriage for other benefits, but he couldn't persuade his sister. She said that since she didn't have anyone she liked, she might as well marry a handsome and capable man.
His mother had never been principled towards his sister. Whatever his sister said was the truth. In the end, he and his father had to compromise.
Fu Yanzhou had a bad reputation and he couldn't stand it, but his sister still spoke on Fu Yanzhou's side.
Yan Heyu explained: "Lv Zhen is not Fu Yanzhou's ex-girlfriend, the two have never dated, and cheating on two women is completely false."
Min Ting looked at Yan Heyu leisurely: "In order to get Fu Yanzhou to invest in Jiangcheng, you started to whitewash Fu Yanzhou?"
Yan Heyu was speechless and said with a smile: "Believe it or not. Fu Yanzhou has already decided to invest in new energy in Jiangcheng. There is no need for me to speak well of him."
Before I finished my cigarette, several other people arrived one after another.
Fu Yanzhou was stuck in traffic longer than them and was the last one to enter the private room.
There was only an empty seat between Yan Heyu and Min Ting. Fu Yanzhou certainly would not sit next to Min Ting. He walked to and stopped behind Yan Heyu, patted Yan Heyu's chair, and asked him to sit in the middle.
Yan Heyu thought of the Jiangcheng project and resigned himself to moving to another position, sandwiched between their brother-in-law and elder brother-in-law.
After three rounds of drinks, Yan Heyu did not forget the second thing to do at the dinner party tonight, which was to attract investment.
"Jiangcheng Park now has preferential policies for acquiring land."
When he said this, he was talking to everyone at the table, and then he deliberately glanced at Fu Yanzhou beside him.
Fu Yanzhou: "Why are you looking at me?"
"Of course I have a reason to look at you."
Because what I am going to say next is related to Fu Yanzhou.
Lemeng Food has two major shareholders. The second largest shareholder is Fu Yanzhou’s Lingyu Group. Of course, the investment must be approved by both major shareholders.
There are basically no problems with the largest shareholder, and now we just have to wait for Fu Yanzhou's nod.
Yan Heyu then said to Fu Yanzhou: "Do you, Lemeng Food, consider setting up a production base in Jiangcheng? I have asked a professional team to evaluate it for you. Setting up a production line in Jiangcheng is better than choosing a location in any surrounding city."
Fu Yanzhou: “…”
In order to pursue that person and to become Jiang Cheng's son-in-law, Yan Heyu has gone crazy and is more concerned about Jiang Cheng's development than Secretary Jiang Cheng.
Min Ting listened carefully but did not participate in their conversation.
He listened carefully because his sister was interested in the fast-moving consumer goods case and wanted to win the public relations agency business of Lemeng Food.
By the end of the meal, they had finished chatting.
As for whether Lemeng Food should set up a factory in Jiangcheng, it is impossible to make a hasty decision at the dinner table. We have to go to Jiangcheng for an on-site inspection before making a long-term plan.
It's time to pay the bill again.
The restaurant manager knocked on the door and asked who would pay the bill.
Yan Heyu asked: "Can I buy on credit?"
The manager had dealt with this group of people so many times that he dared to joke: "No need to sign orders or buy on credit." He added: "The boss said so."
They are very stingy when they have private gatherings, and seem to know how to live their lives. They don't pay for anyone and are unwilling to spend a penny.
Yan Heyu looked around the table and asked, "Is there anyone who would be generous enough to pay the bill today?"
The room was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly burst into laughter.
This scene is too familiar. If you pretend to be dead and silent, no one will be willing to pay for it.
"Who brought the red wine tonight?" Fu Yanzhou asked.
Yan Heyu replied: "Min Ting."
Fu Yanzhou didn't want to drink Min Ting's wine for free, so he said, "I'll pay the bill."
As soon as the voice fell, the phone rang, and the screen showed a note: rare
Fu Yanzhou answered Min Xi's call with one hand and casually took out a card from his wallet and handed it to the hotel manager with the other hand.
When the call was connected, Min Xi asked, "What time can you come back?"
"What's up?"
"I'm sleepy. How can I rest my head on your arm if you don't come back?"
Maybe because she was already lying in bed, her voice was not as cold and sharp as usual. When it came from the phone, it was lazy, gentle and tired. Fu Yanzhou couldn't help but lower his voice: "I'll go back now."
