Chapter 62 How intense is it to bite like that
Dinner was home-cooked meals prepared by Ms. Xu and Director Gu. Chen Zan was a little full, so Zhou Jingyu was almost the only one eating at the table. Occasionally, they would feed her a couple of bites, but not more.
When I came out of the restaurant, I found that the maple leaves on both sides of the street had almost fallen this year, and they made a crackling sound when I stepped on them.
She had never taken such a peaceful walk with Zhou Jingyu before, especially after Zhou Jingyu said those words to her, it felt very novel.
In winter, her hands and feet would become cold. Sometimes, after a full night's sleep, her feet would still be cold in the morning. Zhou Jingyu was different. His palms were warm, and when he wrapped her hands in them, he also warmed her.
It’s like when she was a child in the countryside in the south, there was no heating, so when she went to bed at night, her grandmother would put a hot water bottle in her quilt.
Zhou Jingyu knew that Chen Zan's grandmother had been discharged from the hospital and she would definitely stay at home for the next few days, so he had no plans to bring her back to Jing Mansion. He got in the car and asked the driver to drive towards Chen Zan's home.
After being out for a while and sending her back downstairs, it was already 11 o'clock in the evening.
Zhou Jingyu kissed her for a while before letting her get out of the car and admonishing her, "Go to bed early."
Chen Zhan had just nodded obediently when the phone in his coat started vibrating non-stop. There were only a few people who would call at this time. He took it out and saw that it was Xu Anan.
Just when she was confused, the call was picked up, "An An, what's wrong?"
Xu Anan wailed on the other end of the phone, "Zhanzhan, you know what? I wore 12cm high heels to the cocktail party just to squat on Mr. Zhou. But guess what? I didn't even see him. When I asked, I found out that Zhou Jingyu showed up at the beginning of the party and left. I stood there for three hours, a full three hours. Sob~~~~"
Mr. Zhou himself was sitting next to Chen Zan.
Even though Chen Zan didn't turn on the hands-free mode, Xu Anan's complaints were so loud that even Zhou Jingyu looked at her sideways and raised his eyebrows slightly.
Chen Zan was so embarrassed that she was about to dig her toes into the ground. Xu Anan called to complain that she had been squatting for three hours tonight without seeing anyone, and that she could not complete the task for the school anniversary. She quickly comforted the other party with a few words, and Xu Anan hung up the phone crying.
Zhou Jingyu then slowly asked, "Who's calling?"
Not surprisingly, he heard it all.
Chen Zan said, "He's my roommate."
Only then did she remember that Xu Anan had gone to see Zhou Jingyu today to confirm, but she didn't see him at the cocktail party because he came to find Chen Zan and leisurely took her out for a midnight snack.
Chen Zan felt bad for An An, so while Zhou Jingyu was around, he quickly explained to her that Xu An An was responsible for inviting her to the school anniversary.
"Email?" Zhou Jingyu was clearly unaware of the situation. "The company's official email addresses receive at least several hundred emails every day. It's likely they haven't seen it yet. Perhaps they've been treated as spam."
Yes, for people of Zhou Jingyu's status, these things are usually left to his subordinates.
Chen Zan has already conveyed this matter. As for whether Zhou Jingyu wants to go or not, it is not up to her to decide. But what if she begs him?
Just as she was thinking about whether to do this, Zhou Jingyu asked her casually, "When?"
Chen Zhan was surprised and asked, "Are you coming?"
Zhou Jingyu: "Come when you are free. It would be bad to let your friends fail to complete the task."
Chen Zhan smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhou."
——
When I saw Xu Anan at school the next day, she was still dejected and had a bitter face. She told Chen Zan that at least half of the people at the cocktail party last night were there for Zhou Jingyu, and her father was no exception. As a result, Zhou Jingyu only chatted with Mayor Zhao for a while at the beginning and then left.
She wasn't the only one who returned home disappointed last night.
"Should I tell Jin Hanzhou that Zhou Jingyu is difficult to hire, so I might as well give up this task. If the External Relations Department wasn't short of people this year, these things wouldn't have been assigned to our department head."
Chen Zhan stuffed his notes into his schoolbag and turned to look at her, "Do you want to wait a little longer?"
Xu Anan looked confused, "Waiting for what?"
Chen Zhan said, "It's definitely not possible to reply to emails from large corporations instantly. It's normal to take ten days or half a month. Just wait and see. Maybe there will be news in the next two days."
Xu Anan frowned: "There's only one week left before the school anniversary. If we wait any longer, the event will be over."
Chen Zhan spread his hands and said, "Mr. Zhou is hard to invite anyway, so waiting a few more days won't be a bad idea."
After listening to this, Xu Anan said: "Okay, I think what you said makes sense."
But in fact, she didn't hold out any hope for this matter. However, speaking of this, Xu Anan suddenly remembered another thing. She was going to sue Chen Zan last night, but she was disappointed and her legs hurt, so she forgot about it.
"By the way, Zhanzhan, you might not know this yet, but Zhou Jingyu looks so noble and unfeeling on the surface, but he's actually quite lustful. How do you say that word?"
Xu Anan's eyes lit up, "A scoundrel of a gentleman."
Chen Zhan: “…”
Xu Anan raised her eyebrows, "You want to ask me how I know?"
Chen Zan nodded. She was indeed curious.
Xu Anan excitedly said, "At the cocktail party last night, there was a tooth mark near Zhou Jingyu's Adam's apple. They said it was obviously bitten by a woman. Even his shirt and tie couldn't cover it."
Chen Zan's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes widened immediately. "What...teeth marks?"
Xu Anan: "Yeah, it's exciting, right? You think it must be very intense in bed to bite like that."
Chen Zhan felt guilty and almost choked on his saliva. "Didn't you say you had never met Zhou Jingyu? How did you know there were teeth marks there?"
Xu Anan chuckled. The eldest lady seemed a little vulgar at this moment. "Well, I also heard from the sisters in the circle that they saw Zhou Jingyu. I guess it was the woman he was protecting some time ago who bit her. She was playing around quite a lot, daring to bite her in that position. Knowing that Mr. Zhou has many flowers and plants around him, she is not claiming her sovereignty, right?"
Chen Zhan was silent again: "..."
Help! She was just so angry at the harassment she suffered in the car that she bit him out of frustration!
Thinking about how Zhou Jingyu had been walking around the city with that tooth mark for so many days, he took a deep breath and tried to calm his pounding heart.
Xu Anan felt that her tone was wrong. She glanced at her, then saw Chen Zhan's face flushed red. She immediately exclaimed, "Why is Zhan Zhan's face so red?"
Chen Zhan quickly touched his cheeks and found they were indeed burning hot. He pretended to be calm and explained incoherently, "I... I am..."
Xu Anan laughed out loud, "Zhanzhan, you're too innocent. Your face is already red just by talking about it. If nothing else, I'll send you a yellow chain. What are you going to do when you get a boyfriend in the future?"
Chen Zhan shut up: "!"
Can she say that she is now a battle-hardened person?
The little episode is over.
During the morning break, Xu Anan still sent a message to Jin Hanzhou telling him that she might not be able to complete the task.
When the get out of class was about to end, Jin Hanzhou replied, "You have tried your best. Thank you for your hard work."
After reading it, Xu Anan pursed her lips and was about to put away her phone to go to the cafeteria to eat with Chen Zan.
Jin Hanzhou sent another message: "Did Chen Zan tell you that Zhou Jingyu couldn't be invited?"
Xu Anan was stunned for a moment. Just as she was about to reply, the message had already been withdrawn.
After waiting for a few seconds, there was no new message from the other side. I was a little speechless, but I gave up.
