Thinking of his parents, Zhou Jiyun couldn't help but clench his fists, but his face remained gentle and polite: "Don't worry, Grandpa, I know how to deal with it."
In his previous life, Zhou Zhida had instigated the shareholders, allowing him to successfully take over the company. Now that he was doing it again, would he be unable to deal with these people? A fierce glint flashed across his eyes, and Zhou Jiyun couldn't help but pinch his fingers.
Since returning to the present, most of his thoughts have been on cultivating his relationship with Xie Jing. Now it is time to confront Zhou Zhida and others. Zhou Jiyun has no fear at all. He only has one thought now: revenge if there is revenge and grievance if there is grievance.
After signing the equity transfer agreement, Zhou Jiyun was about to stand up when he heard the housekeeper outside the door say, "Zhi Da, why don't you go in?"
Zhou Zhida smiled disguisingly: "I came to talk to Dad about something. If Dad is busy, I won't disturb you."
Mr. Zhou frowned and said in a loud voice, "Come in, I'm not busy right now."
Zhou Jiyun was about to get up: "Then I'll go back to my room first?"
"No hurry," the old man raised his hand: "It just so happens that your second uncle is here. If you go to the company, it will be smoother if you let your second uncle take you."
As soon as Zhou Zhida came in, he saw the equity agreement on the desk. After hearing what the old man said, he knew that Zhou Jiyun's joining the company was a sure thing. In this case, he simply went along with it.
"Dad is right. Jiyun, if there's anything you don't understand about the company, you can always come back to me. Second Uncle will definitely tell you everything he knows."
On the surface, Zhou Zhida was easy to talk to, seemingly a caring uncle. But in reality, he hated Zhou Jiyun and couldn't help but blame the old man for being partial.
Zhou Jiyun also feigned agreement with him: "Thank you very much for your care, Second Uncle."
"Grandpa, Second Uncle, I'm going back to my room first." Standing up, Zhou Jiyun took the agreement from the desk and said, "You two can chat slowly."
When Xie Jing woke up, the sun was already setting. She rubbed her head against the pillow contentedly, half-closed her eyes, and asked, "What time is it?"
Zhou Jiyun looked at the time: "It's almost three o'clock, do you want to sleep any longer?"
"I'm not going to sleep anymore. I won't be able to sleep tonight. Besides, I haven't finished my mission for today." Xie Jing stretched and said, "Didn't you say that Grandpa wanted to talk to you about something?"
"It's already been negotiated," Zhou Jiyun leaned over and took the agreement next to him: "Starting next Wednesday, I will be busier than I am now."
Xie Jing quickly reviewed it: "Grandpa is going to step down? What about your own company?"
Zhou Jiyun: "Yes, Grandpa is old, and it's time for him to go home and recuperate. As for my own company, Special Assistant Lin and the others will take care of it, don't worry."
Xie Jing sat up: "I'm not worried about that, I'm worried that you're too busy. And your second uncle..."
She leaned closer to Zhou Jiyun and lowered her voice slightly: "Your second uncle and second aunt are in that situation, and now they are close to the Shen family. Grandpa handed the company to you. Will they make trouble behind your back?"
"No, they'll just try to trip me up openly." Zhou Jiyun patted Xie Jing's head: "Are you worried about me? Don't worry, I can handle it."
Xie Jing sighed: "I just think you're working too hard, and it's too... dangerous."
Zhou Jiyun's heart skipped a beat: "So you should be more careful when you go to school. Come back as soon as the get out of class is over. They... are used to playing dirty tricks."
Xie Jing nodded: "I understand, you should also be careful."
Seeing Xie Jing's acceptance and no objection, Zhou Jiyun couldn't help but feel curious: "Why don't you try to persuade me?"
"What am I trying to persuade you about?" Xie Jing was puzzled. "From a public perspective, you already have a stake in the Zhou family's company. If your parents hadn't had an accident, considering your age, you should have joined the company by now."
"Personally, you want to find out the truth about your parents' accident and seek justice for them. This is what a child should do. If even you don't remember them, who else will care about them?"
"So I support you, I just hope you stay safe."
Zhou Jiyun looked at Xie Jing for a long time: "It's great to meet you."
Xie Jing knelt on the bed and hugged Zhou Jiyun for the first time: "I also think it's great to meet you. Don't keep anything unpleasant in your heart. Didn't we promise? To be honest with each other."
Zhou Jiyun took the initiative and put his arm around Xie Jing's waist, burying his cheek in Xie Jing's shoulder: "Yes, we must be honest with each other."
How could he be sad now? He was overflowing with joy. Xie Jing took the initiative to hug him. How memorable was that?
Xie Jing patted Zhou Jiyun on the back of the head: "If you need my help, just tell me, I will not refuse. Since I am your wife, I will take on the responsibilities that belong to Mrs. Zhou."
Zhou Jiyun thought about how Xie Jing had always done well in her previous life. Whenever she had to attend a banquet, Xie Jing always behaved very well, even though she herself did not like such social occasions.
"I'll try to postpone what I can. At this stage, if there are any social events, we still need to attend them. Once my work gets back on track, I'll have fewer social events."
Zhou Jiyun hugged Xie Jing, his warm breath spraying on Xie Jing's ears: "I just feel a little wronged you, you obviously don't like this kind of place."
"You've been very good to me, and this isn't really an injustice." Xie Jing pushed Zhou Jiyun away slightly and looked him straight in the eye. "Family and marriage are about two people. How can only one party make the sacrifice?"
"I'm not some brainless little wife who needs my husband's protection all day long. It makes me look like a useless piece of shit."
Zhou Jiyun paused, a smile flashing across his eyes, "Call me again?"
Xie Jing sighed, and seeing Zhou Jiyun's expectant eyes, she couldn't help but soften her heart a little: "Husband?"
Zhou Jiyun raised his eyebrows and pressed the issue further: "A few more screams won't be enough."
Xie Jing was helpless, "Hubby, hubby hubby hubby, is this ok? What's your fetish?"
Zhou Jiyun was happy: "I just want you to call me more often. Why are you so well behaved today?"
Xie Jing shuddered: "Zhou Jiyun, that's enough, it's never going to end, right? Aunt Yun doesn't need to add oil to the cooking tonight."
"I'm greasy?" Zhou Jiyun complained: "What did I say? It's greasy?"
Xie Jing couldn't help but laugh: "Maybe I'm just enjoying being romantic. Will there be a lot of social engagements coming up?"
Zhou Jiyun thought: "I guess, after I officially take office, my family will definitely hold a banquet. This is unavoidable, we all have to attend."
"There are invitations to various company banquets later, and you can attend them as appropriate. However, the week after next is Mr. Li's 80th birthday party, and I can't refuse it."
Xie Jing understood: "I guess I'll see acquaintances, the Xie family, at that time. We'll always run into each other in such occasions."
