Chapter 57
Yan Jiayu took it very seriously as it was her first time visiting Rong Susu's house. She was so excited that she even couldn't sleep well the night before.
After the typhoon, some flowers and plants in the yard were blown down. There was no time to clean them up. Rong Susu felt a little embarrassed and said, "I'm sorry, I haven't had time to clean them up recently. The yard is a bit messy."
"It's okay, I'll clean it up later." Yan Jiayu was eager to try. He knew Rong Susu liked these flowers and plants, and she must be heartbroken to see them blown like this by the strong wind.
Aunt Wang enthusiastically brought over coffee. "This must be Xiao Yan, right? I've heard Su Su talk about him a long time ago. He's such a handsome guy."
A few days ago, she heard Rong Susu say that a guest was coming, and she became alert. Cheng Huaian has moved across the street, and it is obvious that he wants to reconcile. Susu brought someone else over, and it turned out to be a dating partner. I wonder if President Cheng is embarrassed.
Rong Susu took Yan Jiayu to visit the layout of the house. The basement was almost all Cheng Huaian's former exclusive territory. When passing by the table tennis racket, Yan Jiayu was quite interested and asked whether Cheng Huaian liked it or she liked it. Rong Susu glanced at her guiltily and blushed instantly.
"We all know how to fight."
With a "bang", the colorful balls scattered everywhere. Yan Jiayu shook his head while holding the club, laughing self-deprecatingly, "I haven't played in a long time. I'm a bit rusty."
A forced smile appeared on her beautiful face, which was like a blow to Rong Susu's heart. The player was not Yan Jiayu, but Cheng Huaian from that night.
She didn't dare stay here any longer. The situation that night was too intense, not only in her heart but also in her body. Even passing by the billiard table made her heart beat faster.
"The audio-visual room is just ordinary. Let's go upstairs." Rong Susu went up the stairs first. If she went to the audio-visual room, she would have even more wild thoughts.
When I went upstairs, I heard Aunt Wang talking in a low voice. She turned around when she heard the noise, and her smile was even more forced than Rong Susu's just now.
"Susu, um, Mr. Cheng is here." After saying that, he immediately rushed into the kitchen as if he was afraid that the fire in the city gate would affect innocent people.
Cheng Huaian sat leisurely on the sofa in the living room, with his arms stretched out, as if he was completely at home. This made Rong Susu very angry. This man was definitely doing it on purpose. He must have known that Yan Jiayu was coming, so he chose this time to cause trouble for her.
"What are you doing here?" Rong Susu gritted her teeth in hatred.
"The property management said neighbors help each other. I came to see if there's anything I can help you with. Mr. Yan, don't be shy. Feel free to sit down."
As he spoke, he smiled at Yan Jiayu, asked everyone to sit down, and drank his tea calmly, as if he was the host and the two of them were uninvited guests.
Rong Susu pursed her lips and did not sit down as Cheng Huaian said. A shameless person is invincible in the world.
"Since you are here to help, don't just sit there, get to work." She also gave orders. This was her home, and it was not Cheng Huaian's turn to make the decision.
They have all volunteered, so why not use their free labor?
Unexpectedly, these words worked. Cheng Huaian happily stood up, rolled up his sleeves and was about to go out. Rong Susu even doubted her own eyes. When did Cheng Huaian become so obedient?
"Mr. Yan, won't you come along? Since you're here, at least you can help out a little."
Cheng Huaian's original target was himself, and Yan Jiayu gladly accepted the invitation. If his rival wanted to meet him, he would just accept the challenge.
When buying this single-family villa instead of a large flat, Cheng Huaian himself didn't care. What he considered was that Rong Susu had lived in a house with a private door and yard since she was a child, especially having a yard to grow flowers and plants. Later, their yard was really full of vitality, with all kinds of flowers and plants.
But most of the buildings were destroyed by the typhoon. Cheng Huaian felt very sad when he saw it. If he had known earlier, he would have moved indoors.
"Mr. Yan has been pampered since childhood. He has never done this kind of physical work."
"Even though I haven't done it, I'm not necessarily worse than Mr. Cheng."
The two of them chatted back and forth, their movements and words never stopped.
Cheng Huaian wanted to put up the swing frame, and Yan Jiayu went over to help. It was a rare pause, and as soon as the frame was set up, they continued immediately.
"I built this swing myself. Rong Susu said that children will definitely like swinging on it." Cheng Huaian sighed.
"It's a pity that no children seem to be able to use it."
"That may not be the case."
At this rate, neither of them would be able to keep quiet today. Rong Susu didn't bother to care about their childish behavior and called Xie Yinhe to ask her to come over. After all, with this big sister around, no one dared to be presumptuous.
"Susu, you know what, this kind of physical work has to be done by men, it's really fast." Aunt Wang was happy, but then she thought that these two people would be at loggerheads again soon, and she was still worried.
"Whose taste do you think this dinner should be prepared for?" Rong Susu said that Yan Jiayu likes sweet and sour food, but Mr. Cheng likes light food. How about half and half?
"Spicy!" Rong Susu didn't care about them. When they came to her house, they had to follow the host's wishes and eat according to her preferences.
"Add some prawns in tomato sauce." This dish has a sweet and sour taste. If not for Yan Jiayu, we have to consider Xie Yinhe.
Aunt Wang didn't understand what she meant and thought it was prepared for Yan Jiayu. She looked at Cheng Huaian with some sympathy. He worked so hard but couldn't even have a satisfactory meal in the evening. How pitiful.
"Mr. Cheng probably doesn't have many friends." Yan Jiayu was irritated by Cheng Huaian in her heart, but she still had a warm smile on her face.
Looking at this hypocritical face with a mask, Cheng Huaian really wanted to take Rong Susu to test her eyesight. Was she too nearsighted to be able to distinguish such a fake face?
"I'm sorry to disappoint you. I don't have the same problems as you foreigners." For foreigners, if someone tells them that no one loves them or they have no friends, the damage can be as severe as conventional weapons, but for him, a true Chinese, it is completely useless.
Cheng Huaian threw the broken pieces of porcelain from the flowerpot aside. His gloves were covered in dirt. He was a mysophobic, but he didn't care at all. He even became more and more excited as he worked.
When Xie Yinhe arrived, he saw two men worth hundreds of billions of dollars working in a hurry, and his jaw dropped.
"Rong Susu, is your family holding a labor competition?" People were busy outside, but relaxed inside. Xie Yinhe really admired Rong Susu's composure. If it were someone else, they would have been unable to sit still. Only this little alley queen could treat the domineering CEO as a laborer.
Rong Susu disagreed. It was all voluntary, so what did it have to do with her? "Have you decided on a spokesperson?"
Don't waver back and forth, sometimes it's Zhang Qianni, sometimes it's Fang Xianze. You'll end up becoming a laughing stock.
Xie Yinhe gets a headache whenever this matter is mentioned. Zhang Hao supports Zhang Qianni. He took the blame for the company back then and it was not entirely his personal responsibility. Although he could not be promoted, Cheng Huaian, out of nostalgia, gave him the treatment of director and did not act arbitrarily in this matter, which was considered to give Zhang Hao enough face.
"Tsk, what do you know? This is called giving a slap in the face and then giving something sweet." Rong Susu had long seen through Cheng Huaian's methods. Last time he supported Xie Yinhe, it was a slap in the face of Zhang Hao.
If there is another fight over the spokesperson issue, Zhang Hao will definitely turn against him. It is no small matter if a founding employee turns against him. He knows too many secrets of the company. Cheng Huaian now wants to keep him stable and take it slowly.
Xie Yinhe suddenly understood and gave a thumbs up to express her admiration. Her little sister was getting smarter and smarter. She felt a sense of pride that her daughter had grown up.
Cheng Huaian is best at winning people's hearts. For example, he and Yan Jiayu now probably plan to make the other party give up. Rong Susu knows him too well.
Just looking at the busy figures outside the window, Yan Jiayu is fine, but why does Cheng Huaian look more and more like a married man?
Isn't this the hottest personality on the internet right now? Even after seven years of marriage, Rong Susu had never noticed any marital qualities in Cheng Huaian. She didn't know why she suddenly felt that way today.
He can make money and is generous, can work without complaining, meets physical needs, has a strong sense of service, and most importantly, he is good-looking. He has only been divorced for half a year. Who trained him to be like this?
The more I watched, the angrier I got, so I just stopped watching.
"Mr. Yan, you haven't had time to see Miss Wan Ling since you came back this time, right?"
Cheng Huaian had a feeling of wanting to be beaten up for watching the fun, and Yan Jiayu clenched her fists, but this was at Rong Susu's house, and if he threw a punch, his good impression of Rong Susu would be wiped out, and it might even give others the impression that he would commit domestic violence.
"It's such an honor. It seems that Mr. Cheng is really concerned about my affairs."
"No, you're wrong. I don't care about you at all. I care about Rong Susu."
"What's the point of caring? He's still my ex."
There was a "bang" sound, which was the sound of tiles breaking. Yan Jiayu raised her eyes, thinking that she had angered Cheng Huaian, but she didn't expect that the other party was concentrating on his work and didn't care at all.
"So what if I'm your ex? This place will be mine sooner or later. You're just an insignificant passerby."
When Cheng Huaian said this, he was extremely serious, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if condensed with endless sparks. This look was strange and familiar, and it actually made Yan Jiayu shudder.
After being lost in thought for a moment, he finally remembered that when he saw Cheng Huaian ringing the bell for the IPO, the other party had the same look in his eyes, confident and determined, like a chess player who had all the pieces under control.
Back then, his startup was also a mobile game, and he'd even proposed the concept before Cheng Huaian. But just as it was starting to gain momentum, it was snuffed out. Who was responsible? It was naturally this already successful man in front of him, who, for the sake of his career, would ruthlessly extinguish any threat.
"I wonder what your fiancée, Miss Wan, would think if she saw you working so hard in another woman's house?"
"She's not my fiancée, and I've never admitted it. If you were in this situation, you'd probably just admit it."
"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it. After all, the two families even exchanged tokens. Otherwise, how could the Yan family win the bid for the next port operation rights?"
It seems that Cheng Huaian knows much more than he thought. Yan Jiayu's eyes darkened and he remained silent.
Many people think that Cheng Huaian’s success was accidental, and that someone else would have succeeded at that time, but he never thought so.
Cheng Huaian is Cheng Huaian. In addition to opportunities, what is more important for his success is himself. He has the ability to strategize and make others work for him. He is a natural talent.
This is also what my grandfather hates most about them. He has cultivated them with all his heart, but they all lost to a greenhorn.
Maybe he was a little tired after working all afternoon, so he was surprisingly quiet during dinner. After dinner, Rong Susu wanted to take Yan Jiayu to the hotel, but Cheng Huaian didn't stop her. He was in a good mood and strolled back to the next door.
"Did he quit?" Xie Yinhe was puzzled. From the beginning to the end, she had never seen clearly what Huaian was thinking. Unfortunately, she guessed wrong every time.
Rong Susu didn't know what he was up to, but it was nice to be able to relax for a while.
Only Yan Jiayu suddenly felt alarmed. Cheng Huaian was retreating to advance. He had clearly mastered the Thirty-Six Stratagems.
After sending Yan Jiayu back to the hotel, Rong Susu said apologetically, "You've been tired all day and busy all afternoon. I'm really sorry."
She is a natural beauty with a strong complexion. She looks dazzling even with a little light makeup. A blink of her beautiful eyes can make people forget all their fatigue and anxiety in an instant.
It felt like three years since they last saw each other, not to mention they had been separated for two weeks. Yan Jiayu's lips were dry and his mouth was parched. He stepped forward and hugged her, with the scent of lily of the valley between his nostrils. If he had kept Rong Susu, he would have been able to defeat Cheng Huaian this time.
"Stay here tonight, okay?" he invited.
There was a hot breath next to her ears, and Rong Susu could feel Yan Jiayu tightening her arms. At that moment, her heart almost jumped out.
