Chapter 132: No Sweetness at All
The man spoke in a low voice, with a hoarse sound in it and fatigue between his brows. He had been directing disaster relief work for the past few days and was also very busy when he returned to the city. In the evening, someone finally took over from him. He was busy going home and asked Jiang Yushan to prepare a helicopter to go up the mountain. He had not slept much for several days.
Chen Zan calmed down and let him hold him. It seems that being a leader is not easy.
She wasn't sleepy at first, but the room was so quiet that only the sound of breathing could be heard, and she soon felt sleepy too.
She didn't know how long she slept. It must be because the heating came on in the middle of the night and she was hugged so tightly that she woke up from the heat.
She reached for her phone and looked at it. It was already six o'clock.
Zhou Jingyu was sound asleep, so Chen Zhan didn't wake him up and tiptoed out of bed. After washing his face, he checked the bathroom light and found that the power and heating in the room had indeed been restored.
Chen Zan left the room. The coat that Zhou Jingyu had taken off last night was still thrown outside. She picked it up and gave it to the room service to clean and then return it to Meng Jiaxin. She also stuffed some cash in it and asked them to pass it on later.
By the way, I would also like to know whether the hotel’s power supply and heating have been restored and whether a rescue team has gone up the mountain to repair it.
The hotel staff told us that it was the high-power generator that was brought up by the helicopter from Jiangyu Mountain requisitioned by Jingyu last week that played a big role in allowing the hotel to temporarily resume normal operations.
After doing all this, Chen Zan returned to the penthouse suite.
*
It's not seven o'clock yet
The door of the suite was open. Zhou Jingyu had already gotten up and was sitting lazily on the sofa. He was still wearing the black shirt he wore last night, with his sleeves rolled up and a dull expression on his face.
Zhang Qing and Bai Qi were standing in front of her reporting on their work. Chen Zan deliberately avoided them, but Zhou Jingyu had already raised his thin eyelids and looked over at her, motioning her to eat the breakfast that had just been brought to the table.
Chen Zan greeted Bai Qi and Zhang Qing before walking to the dining table. She ate quietly while hearing Zhang Qing reporting on the disaster relief work in her ears.
We learned that Zhou Jingyu's decision to go up the mountain last night was a personal decision and he would have to return to the city to continue his work. The hotel's department has cooperated with the Jiang family to deliver the necessary supplies to the mountain. According to the weather department, the snow will stop in the afternoon and all guests will be able to go down the mountain by tomorrow morning at the latest.
After finishing the report, Zhang Qing and Bai Qi went out first.
Zhou Jingyu then stood up and came over to sit across from Chen Zhan. Chen Zhan served him some porridge and couldn't help but ask, "If you're so busy, why did you follow me up the mountain last night? Wouldn't it be better to let your subordinates do these things?"
She also heard that Zhou Jingyu's work was mainly in the city, so there was no need for him to go to the mountains.
Zhou Jingyu glanced at her calmly, "Chen Zhan, it's pointless to pretend you don't understand. I called you yesterday and said I'd pick you up, so I had to come in person. I was worried about leaving you at the hotel with your colleagues."
It was indeed a selfish motive, and besides, there were so many beautiful women around her, so I had to come in person.
Chen Zan's eyelashes trembled when she heard that. She didn't expect that he really came to pick her up.
Her eyes fell on his chin and she changed the subject, "Your beard has grown out."
He has been really busy these past two days. He fell asleep last night while holding Chen Zan, and had to deal with work early in the morning. He didn't even have time to shave.
Zhou Jingyu raised his eyebrows lazily, "Then Miss Chen, do you want to do it for me?"
Chen Zhan imitated his expression and said, "That's a nice thought."
Zhou Jingyu laughed and accused her, "You really don't give me any sweet treats at all."
Chen Zan thought to himself, he has already gone too far, what will happen if he is given some sweet treats?
After breakfast, Zhou Jingyu had two conference calls to attend, so Chen Zan went downstairs to pack his luggage and asked Amy and Ian if they wanted to go down the mountain together.
The heating and heating have been restored. She didn't expect that the Chinese government was so efficient. The hotel staff also informed them that they could go down the mountain at the latest tomorrow. The accommodation for the next two days is free and there is compensation.
In addition, the car they rented was still on the mountain, so it made no difference to them whether they went back a day earlier or later. They decided to play here for another day and let Chen Zan follow Zhou Jingyu down the mountain first.
"Mr. Zhou has come to pick you up. How touching! You can go back with Mr. Zhou first. Don't worry about us." Amy said considerately.
Chen Zhan asked repeatedly, "Are you sure you don't want to go together? As for the car, we can pay the hotel staff to return it to us later."
Amy shook her head. "No, no, no. Ian and I have already made an appointment with yesterday's group of friends to continue playing mahjong today. It's more fun than Texas Hold'em, and I've decided to bring this leisure activity back home."
Chen Zhan understood that they were addicted to playing mahjong, but he was still hesitating about how to convince them to go down the mountain with him.
Ian also said, "Cynthia, just leave Amy and me to play in the mountains. We'll definitely have to stay in a hotel if we go back, and it won't be as lively as here. Didn't you also say that your country's government is very powerful? We will definitely be fine."
Seeing that she couldn't persuade them, Chen Zan had no choice but to give up and asked the hotel manager to help take care of her two colleagues.
Zhou Jingyu's trip to the mountain was a private one, and it was kept secret. Only the boss and important internal employees knew about it, and they also knew who Zhou Jingyu came here for.
Now that Chen Zhan had spoken personally, they naturally took it seriously. After Chen Zhan and his group left that day, they moved to a bigger suite for Amy and Ian.
Amy and Ian thought they had won the lottery and were happy all day.
As a rich young man, Jiang Yushan has no work pressure. Unlike his leader Zhou Jingyu, he has to get up early and work late to worry about things, and he can sleep until noon without feeling anxious.
Zhou Jingyu knew Jiang Yushan's character, so he didn't ask anyone to notify him when he left. After Chen Zan came down from upstairs, he sat directly on the sofa in the hall and waited for people.
Lin Xiao and his group were going to take the sightseeing elevator outside to the entertainment room. Li Ziye and the others had played mahjong, sang, and had snowball fights with Chen Zan and the others yesterday. When they saw her sitting there alone, they subconsciously came over to say hello.
As a result, just as Li Ziye walked up to him, Lin Xiao beside him quickly pulled him back, "Brother, listen to my advice, you can't reach Chen Zhan."
A hint of doubt flashed in Li Ziye's eyes, and he said with a bit of amusement: "Brother Xiao, what are you doing? You want to pursue her yourself and you won't let me go and say hello?"
Lin Xiao hurriedly distanced himself from the matter, "No, no, no, I don't have that idea. Stop slandering me."
Li Ziye thought that we were all men, so who couldn’t see through his little tricks? Why was Brother Xiao so cowardly today?
Before I could ask, a group of people suddenly came out from the elevator. The hotel manager and security personnel led the way. One of the two secretaries was carrying a briefcase, and the other was reporting to the man with a strong aura in the center while walking.
Li Ziye and a few others who were unaware of the situation were still wondering who was so arrogant, but then they saw the man's profile passing by in the crowd.
This person looks familiar, I seem to have seen him somewhere.
Then he saw the man walking straight towards the sofa area. Chen Zhan put down the magazine in his hand. The man leaned over slightly and said something. Chen Zhan stood up and followed him.
It wasn't until the group left the hotel that one of them suddenly realized, "Oh my god, was that Zhou...Zhou Jingyu?"
