Chapter 153 It’s time to confess
Gu Yi's project was finally successfully completed. He immediately organized a team-building and relaxation activity for all the people in the institute at a famous southern island.
But before he could elaborate on the content of the team building, Zhou Cheng rejected him. Zhou Cheng just wanted to be quiet for a while and recharge his batteries.
Gu Yi had already expected this outcome and did not force him. Zhou Cheng was overjoyed. He packed up his things and drove to Su Qingyan's company.
When the receptionist saw Zhou Cheng coming in, she quickly contacted Su Qingyan's assistant and then greeted him with a smile on her face.
"Mr. Zhou, President Su is in a meeting, but it should be over soon. I'll take you to the lounge first."
"I can go by myself." Zhou Cheng nodded politely to her and walked straight to Su Qingyan's exclusive elevator.
The current style of Su Qingyan's lounge is similar to Jinghu's. He recently had it redesigned and renovated, with the main goal of making Zhou Cheng feel like he's back home.
Zhou Cheng found some clothes in the closet and went to the bathroom.
After He Zhu received the news that Zhou Cheng had arrived, he cautiously approached Su Qingyan and whispered to him.
Su Qingyan insisted on finishing the meeting, and then couldn't wait to walk to the lounge. As soon as he pushed the door open, he heard the sound of running water coming from the bathroom.
He closed and locked the door and went into the bathroom.
"The meeting is over so soon?"
Zhou Cheng turned around when he heard the noise. His hair was gathered behind his head because he had taken a shower, and water droplets were sliding down his smooth muscle lines.
Su Qingyan leaned against the door and admired the beauty coming out of the bath. He couldn't help it and rushed over to hug him.
"Your clothes are all wet." Zhou Cheng said as he was about to push Su Qingyan away.
"Make it a little more wet."
Zhou Cheng rushed to see Su Qingyan in such a hurry, not intending to do anything serious. After such a busy day, he felt like rewarding himself. The two of them were completely captivated, moving from the bathroom to the sofa and finally to the bed. Afterward, Su Qingyan even snatched the half-smoked cigarette from Zhou Cheng's hand.
"Aren't you going to quit smoking?" Zhou Cheng looked at his red cheeks and slightly closed eyes, then touched the small scar at the corner of his eye.
"It would be a shame not to have a puff." Su Qingyan blew the smoke into Zhou Cheng's face.
"I want to go back to Yingjiang recently." Zhou Cheng held Su Qingyan in his arms, looked at the ceiling, and patted him occasionally.
"Are you ready for daddy to break your legs?"
Su Qingyan didn't expect Zhou Cheng to be so fast. He thought that with Zhou Cheng's personality, he would make a detailed plan and prepare three or five backup plans, and plan all-round without any blind spots for several months.
"You have to be honest. Dragging it out is not a solution."
Zhou Cheng felt that if he delayed any further, he would be really sorry for Su Qingyan. No matter what the result was, he had to show his attitude first.
"I'll go with you." Su Qingyan volunteered.
"No need. I can handle my own problems myself." Zhou Cheng was afraid that once he said this, his parents' anger would spread to Su Qingyan. He didn't want Su Qingyan to be affected by the fire in the city.
"This is not your own business. I will be angry if you say that." Su Qingyan felt uncomfortable when she heard his words.
"Aren't you afraid of getting beaten with me?" Zhou Cheng pinched his cheek.
"It's okay to get beaten up. If you beat me up, you have to acknowledge me as your son."
"You're quite optimistic..."
"Follow me, and all roads lead to Rome."
But the reality was not as smooth as they expected. Zhou Cheng thought he could go home and deal with this important matter during his rest days, but he received a call from Li Yu the next day.
When he arrived at the hospital, the morning shift had just ended. Li Yu saw that he had arrived at the department in less than 20 minutes, and wondered if he was waiting downstairs in the inpatient department.
"Director, what's the matter?"
Zhou Cheng followed Li Yu to the office.
"Gu Yi said that your project is finished. How is your recovery now?"
When Zhou Cheng heard Li Yu ask this, he knew that he wanted him to return to the clinic.
"I've recovered. When can I return to the department, Director?"
"Let me see... Zhou Cheng, you don't have to work shifts when you come back. Spend some time managing the teaching in the department." Li Yu said to Zhou Cheng while looking at the desk calendar.
"Regular training or postgraduate study?" Zhou Cheng didn't expect that Li Yu would assign him a new task.
"Undergraduates, postgraduates, and residents should all be managed together. There was no one to manage them systematically before, and the materials in the department are all a mess."
Zhou Cheng thought for a while, then spoke carefully:
"Director, you can do these, but I don't want to do more than this."
"You're dreaming. You're indispensable in taking care of every patient's surgery. Come back quickly and start leading the team." Li Yu rarely joked with Zhou Cheng.
"Um... OK, thank you, Director." Zhou Cheng was a little uncomfortable with Li Yu's overly intimate attitude towards him.
"The day after tomorrow, Thursday, I'm in the outpatient clinic, and you can lead the team to make rounds." Li Yu circled it on the calendar.
"Director... can you come a few days later? I want to go back to my hometown for some personal matters." After being urged by Li Yu, Zhou Cheng felt that he could not delay any longer, otherwise he might really not have time in the future.
"Personal matter? Are your parents and elderly people at home in good health?" Li Yu showed concern for a rare moment.
"My own business..." Zhou Cheng didn't say much.
But when Li Yu saw his sudden shyness, he knew that this matter must be related to Su Qingyan, and it seemed that good things were about to happen to them.
"Okay, come back when you're done. I'm not in a hurry." Li Yu put the pen back into his chest pocket, indicating that he could leave.
"It will be quick. I will go back tomorrow. If everything goes well, I will be back to work in the department the day after tomorrow." Zhou Cheng has been itching to get back to the clinic for so long.
"Okay, get busy."
Zhou Cheng left the department and returned to Jinghu without stopping. Su Qingyan was already dressed and ready for work. Seeing Zhou Cheng come back so soon, she was very curious.
"Did you forget to bring something? You're back so soon."
"I'll go back to Yingjiang tomorrow." Zhou Cheng was rarely impatient.
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Su Qingyan stopped halfway through putting on her shoes and looked up at him.
"The director wants me to return to the department as soon as possible."
"You... I'm really impressed. Do all the leaders in your hospital like to exploit their employees? Gu Yi does, and so does Li Yu."
When Su Qingyan heard this reason, he was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"I can't just sit around at home doing nothing every day, right?" Zhou Cheng tried to clear Li Yu's name.
"If I go back to Yingjiang tomorrow, I have to make some preparations." Su Qingyan knew that he couldn't persuade Zhou Cheng, so he began to think about how to gain more face for Zhou Cheng when he returned.
"Wait a minute, I want to go back and confess, not ask you to propose marriage." Zhou Cheng immediately stopped him.
"This is my first official visit, and it's a very serious matter. Don't worry about it." Su Qingyan had quickly prepared 10 gifts in his mind.
Neither of them could persuade the other, so they could only acquiesce to the other's behavior.
It's almost time to open the cabinet door.
