What's so interesting about Chapter 143? Let's get down to business.
A slender, smooth hand slipped under the hem of her clothes.
Zhou Songyan's body stiffened.
He asked in a hoarse voice, "Aren't you tired?"
Li Mai didn't answer, but pressed her warm, moist lips against his exposed collarbone and gently bit him with her pearly teeth.
"Sizzle!"
Zhou Songyan gasped.
"Don't you want to sleep, huh?"
Li Mai: "I don't have to go to work tomorrow."
Zhou Songyan: "..."
He grabbed her hand, rubbing his fingers which were wrapped in a bandage: "How did you get this?"
"It was from a piece of flowerpot."
"Let me see..."
"What's so interesting? Let's get down to business."
Li Mai raised her head and sealed his lips with hers.
The consequence of her taking the initiative to flirt was that she was kept up until 3 a.m., so tired that she couldn't remember anything and fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow. Zhou Songyan carried her to wash up, but she was still in a daze.
The next morning, Chengcheng got up and waited and waited, but neither of his parents got up.
He was very hungry, so he found some bread to eat.
While thinking, "Mom never sleeps in late, what's wrong with her today?"
He wanted to knock on the door, but he was afraid his father would scold him.
Oh well, let them sleep.
However, the bread wasn't as good as his mother's cooking, and he still preferred his mother's cooking.
...
Rongzheng Group.
Sun Yuanjie glanced at Zhou Songyan's office several times, then looked at his wristwatch.
It's already 10 a.m., is the boss not coming?
There are still a few documents waiting for him to sign.
Why don't we give them a call and ask?
Sun Yuanjie hesitated for a moment before dialing the number.
The phone rang for a long time before it was answered.
"Hello."
Sun Yuanjie: "..."
Is he still sleeping?
He coughed and reminded him, "Mr. Zhou, there are a few documents waiting for your signature. Also, you and Chairman Zhou have a lunch meeting with Chairman Sheng of Shengshi at noon."
After Sun Yuanjie finished speaking, there was no response for a long time.
After a while, he heard the boss say, "Sweetie, sleep a little longer."
Sun Yuanjie: "..."
This was definitely not said to him.
Then there was a rustling sound, and the phone call ended.
Sun Yuanjie: "..."
After the boss got together with Miss Li, he became lax in his work, trapped in a romantic relationship, and lost his enthusiasm for work.
Li Mai turned over and continued sleeping. Zhou Songyan covered her with a blanket, then quietly got out of bed and went to the second bedroom to wash up.
When I passed by the children's room, I saw that Chengcheng was already in class.
The teacher greeted him respectfully: "Mr. Zhou."
Zhou Songyan nodded, walked to Chengcheng's side, and patted his head twice: "Don't disturb Mom, she's sleeping. I'll have someone bring you lunch in a bit."
Chengcheng stared at him with his clear, big eyes: "What's wrong with Mommy?"
Zhou Songyan said without changing his expression, "I didn't sleep well last night."
Before Chengcheng could ask anything else, Zhou Songyan had already left.
His eyebrows were furrowed tightly, and his small mouth was pursed into a straight line.
...
Zhou Songyan walked into the company and saw Han Ying.
His eyes instantly turned cold.
Han Ying wanted to go up and talk to him, but Zhou Songyan turned his toes and entered the elevator without looking back.
Han Yingdun remained where he was.
Her son still refused to talk to her.
Han Ying arrived at Zhou Jingtian's office.
Zhou Jingtian's expression darkened when he saw her: "Why are you here?"
Han Ying sat down on the sofa as if they were old friends: "We haven't cleared things up about what happened last time. Mom keeps protecting Li Mai and that child, so I came to the company to find you."
Zhou Jingtian: "I've already said it, Chengcheng is a child of our Zhou family."
Han Ying: "How do we know if it's true or not without any testing?"
Zhou Jingtian stood up, walked over, took out a piece of paper, and slapped it in front of her: "Look carefully, Chengcheng is Songyan's child!"
Han Ying picked up the appraisal report with suspicion, and after seeing the conclusion, blurted out, "There can't be a problem with this appraisal report, can there?"
Zhou Jingtian's expression turned even uglier.
"Han Ying, if you're here to cause trouble, please leave immediately!"
Han Ying pursed her lips and put down the appraisal report.
"Alright, if it is, then it is. I'm doing this for the Zhou family's sake, to prevent you from being deceived."
Zhou Jingtian: "Is there anything else? If not, hurry up and leave!"
"Jingtian, we've been husband and wife for a while, can't you be a little gentler with me?"
Zhou Jingtian was speechless: "Han Ying, don't you know how we got divorced?"
"I……"
"Alright, I don't want to say anything more unpleasant. You should leave now."
...
After leaving Rongzheng Group, Han Ying called a friend and poured out her grievances.
Friend: "Han Ying, now that you're divorced, do you want to remarry Zhou Jingtian?"
Han Ying: "Our divorce was unpleasant, how could it be bigamy? Zhou Jingtian still hates me."
Friend: "Look, Zhou Jingtian hasn't remarried all these years, what does that mean?"
Han Ying: "What does that mean?"
"It means he still has feelings for you; he's been waiting for you to come back."
Han Ying: "..."
She asked uncertainly, "Is that really true?"
Friend: "Of course! A man of Zhou Jingtian's status, if he wanted to remarry, there would be plenty of women who would want to marry him, but he hasn't. He's been single for twenty years, so he must have someone in his heart, and that person is you."
Han Ying's heart skipped a few beats.
My friend's analysis seems to make some sense.
The friend continued, "The Zhou family is currently at the height of its power in Beijing. Why don't you remarry Zhou Jingtian and integrate into the Zhou family? Your son will gradually accept you."
Han Ying asked excitedly and nervously, "What if Zhou Jingtian refuses if I bring it up?"
Friend: "You went too far back then, so it's normal for Zhou Jingtian to reject you at first. You have to hold on, take the initiative to care for him, and slowly melt away his hatred."
"He still has feelings for you, and he will definitely give in soon."
Han Ying thought her friend's analysis was correct.
What happened back then was ultimately her fault, so it's only right that she take the initiative and put in some effort.
...
Sun Yuanjie walked into Zhou Songyan's office: "President Zhou, it's time to go to the hotel."
Zhou Songyan put down his pen, stood up, grabbed his coat, and walked out.
Zhou Songyan followed Zhou Jingtian into the private room. A middle-aged man with slightly graying temples smiled and shook Zhou Jingtian's hand: "Jingtian, you're here."
Zhou Jingtian smiled and said, "Sorry to keep you waiting."
Sheng Zhaohui: "I just arrived too."
He looked at Zhou Songyan and said, "Your son is becoming more and more like you."
Zhou Songyan reached out and shook hands with him.
"Uncle Sheng."
Sheng Zhaohui and Zhou Jingtian had some connection.
Zhou Songyan had met him.
Sheng Zhaohui had a favor to ask of the Zhou family.
The Sheng family has invested in a real estate project, but is now facing some cash flow problems and wants to get Zhou Songyan to inject capital.
In fact, Zhou Songyan had already refused, but Sheng Zhaohui brought up Zhou Jingtian again.
On the way here, Zhou Songyan had already made his stance clear.
He's a businessman; he only invests money when there's profit to be made.
He wasn't optimistic about Sheng's real estate project; if it went well, they might make a small profit, but if it went poorly, they would lose money.
He didn't want to get involved.
He wouldn't have come today if it weren't for his father's sake.
But he only met with me once and didn't make any promises.
To Zhou Songyan's surprise, Sheng Zhaohui didn't mention the real estate project; instead, he chatted with Zhou Jingtian.
Later, Sheng Zhaohui suddenly said, as if joking, "Our Sheng Xi and Song Yan are about the same age. It would be great if they could hit it off. It would be perfect if our two families could get married."
