Chapter 80 Chapter 80 Someone else wrote about you doing it eighteen times a night.
The sky was clear and blue, and the warm light illuminated the rosy cheeks in the room.
Yan Jiu looked at the words in disbelief, but at the same time didn't know why they were not crossed out.
She bit her lips tightly to prevent herself from making such an embarrassing sound.
Suddenly, the cell phone rang.
Yan Jiu was startled, his fingertips trembled uncontrollably, and the phone fell onto the bed with a thud.
When she found her phone and answered it, Yu Xue's gentle voice asked doubtfully, "Xiaojiu, did I disturb you?"
"No!"
Yan Jiu denied it in a hurry, and even raised his voice unconsciously.
A look of confusion crossed Yu Xue's face, but she didn't delve into it.
With a mixed look of joy and sorrow, she asked, "Xiaojiu, your father said that Yan Song went to work at Qingyu Group. Is that true?"
Yan Jiu knew that it was because she didn't reply to Yan Hongsheng that he asked Yu Xue to ask.
She didn't answer directly, but asked, "Why don't you ask Yan Song?"
Yan Song also sent a message to thank her this morning.
It wasn't that he truly understood her intentions, but Yan Song, like her, had always been reluctant to stay at home. Unfortunately, Yan Hongsheng had always wanted to train him as his successor, treating him with both strictness and doting, which led to frequent conflicts between the two.
Yu Xue's tone was helpless, as if she really had no other choice. "Your brother has moved out. We don't know where he is."
Yan Jiu was silent for a while before he said, "I don't know either."
Yu Xue: "Xiaojiu, I know Xiao Song listens to you the most as his sister. Can you please let him go home? Your father has been in a good mood recently and won't blame him."
"Why didn't he tell me in person? Or go directly to Qingyu Group to find my brother? Because he knew we would ignore him."
Yan Jiu didn't want to hear Yu Xue talk like this anymore, and his tone became increasingly sharp. "Why do you always have to be his lobbyist?"
Yu Xue thought of the conversation she had with Chen Yuchu. Her son-in-law, who came from a distinguished and noble family, was sitting opposite her. With the air of a superior, he asked her what fears Yan Jiu had had since childhood.
She didn't want to say it.
Looking at her son-in-law who looked very much like an old friend, she didn't want to say anything.
Saying it out loud is like exposing the entire, unbearable self.
It seems like everything I have persisted in these years is meaningless.
But she obviously underestimated Chen Yuchu, the businessman who had never failed in business negotiations. He easily broke down her psychological defenses with his calm tone.
Yu Xue knew that she had always felt sorry for her children.
Even though she knew Yan Hongsheng was not a good person, she still married him and became his accomplice for so many years.
Not only is their own life a mess, but their children also suffer from mental illness.
There is a saying on the Internet that makes a lot of sense: if a child has any problems, he must be the one in the family with the mildest symptoms.
In fact, she and Yan Hongsheng were already terminally ill.
Perhaps the only thing that still supports her is unwillingness and hatred.
Yu Xue's throat suddenly felt blocked. She had never been a good mother.
Now, as if he never learned his lesson, he hurt his child again because of the force of inertia.
"I'm sorry. Xiaojiu."
Yu Xue wiped the tears from her face. Knowing that Yan Jiu didn't like her crying, she suppressed her voice and said, "It's me who never protected you."
Yan Jiu was sensitive and immediately caught Yu Xue's sob. The dim light half-illuminated her face, and her expression was obscure and unclear.
She had been waiting for these words for a long time.
Yan Jiu had long since given up hope for fatherly love due to Yan Hongsheng's persistent badness. She felt it was just bad luck, like some of her classmates whose parents divorced, and there was nothing she could do about it.
But Yu Xue was different. She loved Yan Jiu and Yan Song, and she was always gentle, but this love was also the sharpest thorn that pierced their hearts. Her love only made them vulnerable, unable to hate them and afraid to love them.
Yan Jiu has always known that this kind of family relationship is distorted and unhealthy.
But she had no choice. She knew she couldn't give up on her mother. Even though she was covered in blood, she was still willing to hug her.
Just like now, as long as Yu Xue said sorry, Yan Jiu's heart would be like the surging waves, floating in the sea, not knowing the way out.
But at least, it was right to let Yan Song work at Qingyu Group. Yan Hongsheng didn't dare to go to Qingyu Group to make trouble, nor did he dare to ask Chen Yuchu in person. He could only let Yu Xue ask her indirectly.
She forced back her tears and said, "Mom, my brother and I have grown up and don't need anyone's protection anymore. You have to protect yourself."
When Yu Xue heard Yan Jiu ask her to protect herself, even though she knew she couldn't see on the other side of the screen, she still forced a smile and said, "I will. Xiaojiu, I'm really happy to know that you and Yu Chu are doing well."
But who could have guessed the outcome right after we got married?
Yan Jiu originally thought that she and Chen Yuchu would maintain a relationship not much better than that of strangers.
Living under the same roof but not communicating, or not living together at all, only appearing together when they are required to attend family dinners.
Love needs to be managed, but her attitude is negative.
It was Chen Yuchu who pulled her out step by step.
She responded softly.
After hanging up the phone, she was not in the mood to continue browsing the super topic, but walked towards the window.
She was wearing a silk nightgown with thin straps hooked around her slender shoulders, revealing the delicate butterfly bones on her back. In the slightly drunken light and shadow, she was as beautiful as a butterfly flapping its wings, yet also a bit lonely.
The luxurious and cold door slowly opened, the silver car logo flashed dazzlingly in the light, and the black car drove in smoothly.
Her beautiful eyes, like glass, lit up instantly. Monday was always the busiest day. Given the size of Qingyu Group, there must be many things that Chen Yuchu needed to decide. She really didn't expect him to come home so early.
Her slender figure could no longer be restrained.
He hurried downstairs without even changing his clothes.
Chen Yuchu had already seen the beautiful figure in front of the window. A flash of light flashed across his eyes and he told the driver, "Stop the car."
As soon as the car door opened and the brown lace-up Oxford shoes stepped on the ground, a figure fluttering like a butterfly ran towards him. He stretched out his arms, hugged her tightly, and held her in his arms.
The familiar body temperature and fragrance enveloped Yan Jiu completely, filling her lonely heart.
Yan Jiu looked up and asked him, "Why did you come back so early today?"
Seeing the pile of documents in his office, I was even prepared for him not to come home for dinner.
Under the light, her beautiful eyes sparkled even more. Chen Yuchu smiled softly, his lips stained with thin smiles. "I missed you, so I came back."
Yan Jiu narrowed his eyes in satisfaction. The more he looked at him, the more he liked him. "By the way, did you know that we actually have a super topic? The pottery shop is doing very well right now. I'm considering opening a branch, but I'm worried that this is just a temporary wave of enthusiasm and that the business will die down after that."
Staring at Yan Jiu's porcelain-white skin and the fading pink mark, Chen Yuchu's Adam's apple rolled. He took off his suit and put it on her, "Don't catch a cold."
"Super talk?"
His expression shifted slightly, but Yan Jiu didn't notice. He explained to him, "Well, that day Qingyu Group officially announced our marriage, and then a lot of people started shipping us, almost like chasing stars."
Thinking of the article she read in the afternoon, her eyes turned, and she lowered her eyes inexplicably with a guilty conscience, and silently recited something in her heart.
Some people also wrote that you did it eighteen times a night.
What Yan Jiu didn't expect was that Chen Yuchu didn't want to extend the topic of "Super Topic" any further. After responding to this matter, he moved on to the next topic.
Without much hesitation, he said, "We can open one or two branches first to see how business goes. If the performance isn't good, we can cut our losses immediately. We can discuss the location together, or should we stick with the original pottery and coffee shop model?"
Yan Jiu was a person who sought stability and wouldn't react to someone's sudden affection. But when Zhang Siyu mentioned opening a branch, she became a little tempted. She knew that her future charity activities would undoubtedly increase her expenses, so she had to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.
But her business was just average, and the pottery shop she opened didn't lose money because of its location. If she opened another branch, it would be bad if she put in all the effort but ended up losing money.
There was only an initial outline, but I didn't expect that Chen Yuchu had already started thinking about the store's business model.
She started thinking, her long eyelashes fluttering. "Let's stick with the old model. There are already enough coffee shops in Juancheng. Do you have any suggestions for location?"
Chen Yuchu held her shoulders and walked inside, inhaling the fragrance of flowers. For his brain, thinking about this matter was more like a rest.
But he didn't make the final decision like he would at work. Instead, he spoke in a negotiating tone, "It might be a good idea to open a shop in a mall with office buildings nearby. Pottery usually requires three trips to the shop, which is too far and inconvenient. Nowadays, many people have to work overtime on weekends or are too lazy to go out. They can make pottery during their lunch break and relax."
Hearing the word "overtime", Yan Jiu smiled and teased him, "Chen Yuchu, you are an evil capitalist. You always ask your employees to work overtime, right? I never ask my employees to work overtime."
Zhang Siyu and Chu Yu are now boyfriend and girlfriend. She once heard Zhang Siyu complain about the intensity of his overtime work, and the two of them even had to squeeze out time for dating.
But Zhang Siyu also said that Qingyu Group's overtime pay is top-notch in the industry. Chu Yu himself wants to make more money while he is young so that it will be easier to spend on family expenses in the future.
"Yes, yes, yes." Chen Yuchu said in a coaxing tone, "But they can leave work early today thanks to you. I will send a notice within the company tomorrow to let them thank you."
Yan Jiu was amused by Chen Yuchu, his voice was a little uneven, and he covered his mouth, "Shut up! Don't..."
"Chen Yuchu, don't lick my palm!"
After deciding on the store's business model, Chen Yuchu sent a message to Gao Zhou, asking him to propose several locations.
Gao Zhou saw the scale and said, "What a waste of talent! Even during my internship, I've never worked on such a small project."
As soon as he said that, Zhu Shiqing hit him on the head with potato chips. "Just do it! Why are you talking so much nonsense? It's obvious that Xiaojiu is opening a new store. I'll bring Billion to show my support. If you don't like it, don't go!"
Gao Zhou begged for mercy quickly, "My dear wife, I was obsessed with appearances! Even the boss is personally watching this project. It is my honor to be chosen by the boss to choose a location. What's more, you are going to come in person. On that day, I will definitely dress up to set off your beautiful face!"
"Alright, alright," Zhu Shiqing curled her lips, "Your boss isn't here, so you don't have to flatter him. Also, I'm not your wife now, so don't yell at me!"
Gao Zhou cried out in grievance, "But I've been committed to you my whole life, and now you're not going to take responsibility for me?"
Yan Jiu was carried upstairs by Chen Yuchu. The weight of the adult woman seemed as light as a feather in his hands, and his shoulders were broad and steady.
She was restless in his arms, waiting for an opportunity to "retaliate" against Chen Yuchu by licking her. The palm of his hand was still wet, with a numb and tingling feeling.
Chen Yuchu held her down, his voice slightly deep, "Don't move."
Whenever he said these two words, Yan Jiu would always quiet down. She cleared her throat uncomfortably and changed the subject, "Chen Yuchu, did the company's directors give you any trouble?"
Yan Jiu didn't know Chen Yuchu's position in the company. Not to mention being a company director, even Chen Baichuan didn't dare to say anything disrespectful to him in person.
She couldn't help but feel worried when she said this, and her clear eyes stared at him without blinking.
Chen Yuchu paused, thinking that sometimes a white lie was not a bad thing.
He said calmly: "I will handle all the company's affairs."
His thin lips curled up, "But honey, I want a little reward."
