Chapter 43: Mr. Zhou or Mr. Han?
Zhou Yan sent Lin Xu upstairs and came back. As soon as he entered the office, the secretary came and knocked on the door.
"Mr. Zhou."
"What's the matter?" Zhou Yan asked.
"Well... it's like this. You were just discussing with your friends - they were just joking. Do you think you should control yourself? After all, it might not have a good impact on you." The secretary tried to express his meaning as tactfully as possible.
She knew that Zhou Yan and Lin Xu were sharing a house, but she didn't dare to say anything without Zhou Yan's permission.
Zhou Yan also understood. It was just that he had changed from supporting Lin Xu and Chen Jinhe as a couple to supporting Lin Xu and himself as a couple.
"It's okay, I don't care about these. Just don't let them get in front of Lin Xu and disturb his work." Zhou Yan flipped through the documents and gave instructions lightly.
"Ah...Okay then. I understand."
After Zhou Yan said this, the secretary stopped asking questions.
Although she suddenly felt that Zhou Yan and Lin Xu were a bit of a good match...
"Wait a moment."
The secretary walked to the door and Zhou Yan called her again.
"Mr. Zhou, please speak."
"Cancel my tonight trip."
"OK."
When the secretary came out of Zhou Yan's office, the office area became bustling again.
"Stop making trouble. Mr. Zhou will come out soon and see that you are so idle. If he asks you to work overtime, you will behave yourself."
"No, this is interesting. Do you know which company that handsome boy works for?" someone asked the secretary.
"have no idea."
She knew but didn't dare to say anything. Boss Zhou had said she couldn't disturb Lin Xu's work. It didn't matter how others knew about it; she hadn't said anything anyway.
"It's Qingying Yijing upstairs, the new designer."
The secretary wasn't too surprised: "Oh, you found it out so quickly."
"We didn't steal it. It was posted on the WeChat Moments of Qingying's boss, Mr. Han. Look."
The man showed the screenshot on his phone to his secretary.
Han Jingyi took a photo of the design department's office area. Three people were in the picture. Lin Xu was in the center of the picture, looking like he was working seriously.
The caption is: Nan Feng [Every moment of effort is worthy of praise]
secretary:…………
"Look, it's him, right? Oh, this is interesting. Mr. Han is really gay. Does he like this designer?"
"Of course, right? I like such a handsome boy too. Look at his big, watery eyes."
"Then what about our CEO Zhou? He's the first to see the moon because he's close to the water."
"That's right. They meet every day in the same company, and Mr. Zhou is so busy. But since he's a designer, Mr. Zhou should have some work-related interactions with him."
The secretary coughed lightly and said, "Stop making a fuss. This is all groundless talk. And let me tell you, President Zhou has already said that we can't disturb others at work."
"Ah? Mr. Zhou said that? Did he say that specifically?"
"Um."
"Oh my god, you're so spoiled! I support Mr. Zhou."
"Mr. Zhou is a straight shooter. I support Mr. Han. This could really come true."
"I stand for myself, little puppy, my favorite."
secretary:……
It’s up to you.
The artistic conception of green shadows upstairs.
Lin Xu was so busy in front of the computer that he had no time to look at his phone.
The project that he and Teng Qiu had previously worked on had reached the final stage and he was no longer needed to follow it throughout.
Mr. Feng’s design drawings need to be produced as soon as possible.
When Teng Qiu went to the teahouse to get water, he checked his Moments and saw it. He immediately showed it to Lin Xu.
"Look, I told you that President Han had some thoughts about you."
Lin Xu took a moment to glance at it. "...Aren't you in the photo too? Why don't you say he's interested in you?"
Teng Qiu curled his lips and said, "Come on, look at how good you look in this photo. I even closed my eyes. Have you ever seen someone you like take a photo of like this?"
Lin Xu couldn't help laughing.
Of course Lin Xu knew Han Jingyi's intention, but he was too lazy to pay attention to him.
Seeing that Lin Xu was too busy, Teng Qiu stopped teasing him and silently gave Han Jingyi a thumbs up.
Lin Xu was so busy that he was exhausted. If Nan Feng and Zhou Yan hadn't called him, he wouldn't even have known it was time to get off work.
"Ah... I'm so tired..." Lin Xu wailed, leaning back in his chair.
"Are you so tired? I wanted you to go shopping with me, but if you're tired, just go home."
Lin Xu became excited when he heard about shopping: "I'll go!"
"Aren't you tired?" Zhou Yan asked with a smile.
"Being tired from work has nothing to do with shopping. Let's go. I haven't been shopping for a long time."
Lin Xu said as he pulled Zhou Yan's sleeve and shook it.
Zhou Yan raised his hand and rubbed his head: "Okay, then you can rest for a while on the way."
Zhou Yan felt that Lin Xu had changed a bit after returning from this business trip, and the polite and unfamiliar feeling he had towards him before seemed to have been much less.
Now I can act like a spoiled child to myself.
Zhou Yan glanced at Lin Xu, who was resting with his eyes closed, in the rearview mirror and felt inexplicably good.
The area where they worked was not far from the city center. When Zhou Yan drove to the mall parking lot, Lin Xu had already fallen asleep.
Zhou Yan didn't call him. Worried that the parking lot was too cold, he took off his suit jacket and gently draped it over him, then got out of the car to smoke.
Lin Xu actually woke up when he was putting clothes on her, but she didn't move.
After Zhou Yan got out of the car, he squinted his eyes and secretly looked at the man leaning against the car.
Zhou Yan's fingers are very beautiful, with distinct joints and are very long. The tendons and blood vessels on the back of his hands show his strength.
Lin Xu tightened his grip on Zhou Yan's clothes, smelling his scent on his coat, his heart beating rapidly.
The rabbit headband they bought when they went to the amusement park together last time was still in his car and had never been put away.
Lin Xu closed his eyes, feeling grateful for Zhou Yan's unique indulgence.
Lin Xu didn't "wake up" until Zhou Yan had almost finished smoking a cigarette.
"Sorry, I didn't expect to fall asleep." Lin Xu opened the car door and said while rubbing his eyes.
"It's okay. If you want to sleep, then we can go home."
"No, I feel much better after taking a nap. Let's go."
"Yeah." Zhou Yan put out his cigarette and went into the mall with Lin Xu.
Zhou Yan came here to buy clothes.
"You have good taste, help me take a look." Zhou Yan pushed Lin Xu into a brand he often visited.
Lin Xu looked around carefully, feeling a bit embarrassed. "This is business attire. The colors and styles are mostly the same. What style do you want?"
"Yeah, then it's up to you. We'll go to whichever store you like."
"Why did you suddenly change your style?" Lin Xu felt strange.
Isn't it said that once a man starts to care about appearance, he's about to fall in love?
Who is Zhou Yan doing this rhythm of opening the screen for?
Could it be the one from the last blind date?
Although Zhou Yan said that the relationship would not develop, he had a good opinion of her and seemed to have added her on WeChat.
Could it be that he has realized his mistake and is ready to chase after her?
In these few seconds, Lin Xu's mind was full of ideas.
Zhou Yan didn't have the nerve to say that it was because he wanted to narrow the generation gap between him and Lin Xu and be on the same level with him.
He touched his nose and said, "The company has a team-building activity in a few days. I can't always wear a suit. I should buy some casual clothes."
