"You are going to the Zhou family's company today. You should be careful with your second uncle." Looking at Zhou Jiyun tying his tie in front of the mirror, Xie Jing leaned against the door of the fitting room with her arms folded.
"I know," Zhou Jiyun reached out and pulled Xie Jing in: "My tie doesn't look right, can you help me?"
Xie Jing glanced at Zhou Jiyun and knew that his request for help was fake and that he was just trying to get closer to her. But Xie Jing certainly wouldn't refuse such a small request. Doing something for someone she liked made her happy.
"I won't go to the Zhou family's company. After all, you just took office. If I go there again, it will be a bit arrogant." After adjusting Zhou Jiyun's tie, Xie Jing took a step back: "Very decent."
Zhou Jiyun hugged Xie Jing with some regret: "What a pity, why don't I go back to Rongsheng."
"You're talking nonsense," Xie Jing tapped his back. "The truth behind my parents' death has to be revealed. Besides, you already have a stake in the company. Even if you quit, they won't let you go easily."
"People who have done evil will not turn back, but will only become more rampant."
Zhou Jiyun sighed deeply: "Yes, the evildoers must be brought to justice. I'm just worried that you will be implicated."
"We are husband and wife, so we should face this together. It doesn't count as involvement." Xie Jing patted his shoulder and said, "You should go out. It would be bad if Aunt Li came over and saw it."
"No, Aunt Li will only be happy that we have a good relationship, otherwise she will have to call me Mr. Zhou again." Zhou Jiyun rubbed Xie Jing again, like a big cat sniffing catnip, as if this could gain motivation and courage.
Xie Jing thought that Li Ma used to think that Zhou Jiyun was not good to her, so she called him Mr. Zhou in her conversation. Later, she realized that she had misunderstood, and now she calls him son-in-law all the time. It can be said that she is very realistic.
"Mother Li just misunderstood. Look how nice she is to you now."
"Okay, stop acting like a spoiled brat. Why are you like Dali? Do you like to rub shoulders with others? Let's go quickly. I don't have classes today. I'll wait for you at home."
After watching Zhou Jiyun go to the company, Xie Jing curled up on the large sofa in the living room and continued to study the rebirth article on her phone. She had spent all her thoughts on this for the past two days, and now Zhou Jiyun's secret attracted her more.
When Li Ma opened the door and came in, Xie Jing was engrossed in her phone. Li Ma didn't bother her and went to the kitchen to get busy. Her job was very easy now. She only needed to come and cook a meal when Xie Jing and Zhou Jiyun needed her.
Sometimes he didn't even have to come for a whole day, so Li Ma felt guilty and always felt that she was just taking money without doing any work.
Therefore, whenever she came over, Li Ma would consciously cook more dishes. For example, she would make more dumplings and freeze them in the refrigerator so that Xie Jing and Zhou Jiyun could have a bite in the morning.
Now when you open the refrigerator at home, you will see it piled with various pastries and frozen foods, all of which are what Li's mother has been busy with these days.
Around twelve o'clock, Aunt Li wiped her hands and said, "Miss, it's time for lunch."
Xie Jing put down her phone and pinched her brows. "Okay, Aunt Li is busy with so many dishes today? I'm in for a treat today."
Aunt Li looked at Xie Jing lovingly: "I'm glad you like it, Miss. This is the first time we've sat down to have a meal together since you got married."
Xie Jing felt a little sad: "I just couldn't spare the time before."
Li Ma smiled and said, "I understand. It's because the son-in-law can't leave the young lady."
Xie Jing's ears were hot: "Don't tease me, how are you feeling lately?"
She said as she served Li Ma some soup: "Are you feeling well?"
"No, I'm fine," Li Ma took the soup from Xie Jing and said, "You don't have much work to do here. I like to go square dancing when I have time. It's so relaxing..."
After dinner, Xie Jing wanted to help Li Ma clean up the dishes, but just as she was about to decline, her phone rang. Li Ma hurried into the kitchen with the dishes. She was very fashionable, so she wasn't a third wheel.
Xie Jing looked at Li Ma's back, shook her head, and went to the balcony with her phone. "Have you eaten yet? Did everything go well today?"
"We just had a simple meal," Zhou Jiyun also stood in front of the French window. "Grandpa is here today, so they are still very restrained. However, a few shareholders have some ulterior motives, which I can handle."
Xie Jing said: "I believe you. If you feel unhappy, please tell me at any time. Don't keep it to yourself."
"I know. I told you I'd be honest with you." Zhou Jiyun said with a smile, "You don't have to worry about me. I know how to deal with these people."
Xie Jing heard his cheerful tone and knew he really didn't take it to heart. She smiled and said, "Okay, then can you leave work on time today? We can talk tonight."
Zhou Jiyun's heart skipped a beat, but he refused to admit defeat: "Have you finished your homework?"
"That's about right. I can make a rough guess. Let's meet tonight and we'll know if I'm right." Xie Jing tapped the stamen of the Kalanchoe. "Don't worry, don't overthink it. Just work hard. As long as you don't make any mistakes of principle, I won't abandon you."
Zhou Jiyun took a deep breath: "Really?"
"Really, don't worry." Xie Jing shook her head helplessly. Zhou Jiyun is so worried now. Could it be that they are divorced in his memory?
Come to think of it, it seems that this is possible.
However, this guess is somewhat contradictory, because Zhou Jiyun said that their experience would only be more bumpy than in the novel... Thinking about this, Xie Jing gradually became absent-minded.
Li Ma wiped her hands and came out: "Miss, I'll go back first. I'll come over at five in the evening?"
Xie Jing looked at the weather forecast: "The forecast says it will rain heavily today, so don't come over tonight. Jiyun and I will make something simple, so you don't have to worry about us starving."
Li's mother hesitated: "This is not good. I get paid so much..."
"Listen to me," Xie Jing said a little forcefully, "I have something to discuss with Ji Yun tonight."
"Okay, then I'll come over at ten o'clock tomorrow morning?" Aunt Li immediately changed her mind. She just thought that Xie Jing and Zhou Jiyun were newlyweds and were in the midst of love, so they didn't want any third wheel around them.
"Okay, come over tomorrow at ten o'clock." Xie Jing knew that Li Ma had misjudged her, but she couldn't explain it, so she could only accept Li Ma's guess. She had really sacrificed too much for Zhou Jiyun.
After Li Ma left, the house fell completely silent. Xie Jing stopped reading those rebirth stories this time and instead wrote and sketched in her notebook. She had to finish a draft because that evening was Zhou Jiyun's confession, and she needed to get every detail clear.
It was quite a subtle thing to say. On their wedding night, it was her turn to confess, and now it was Zhou Jiyun's turn to confess. In fact, Zhou Jiyun's secret was even more complicated and bizarre than her own. Thinking of this, Xie Jing was a little excited.
A reborn person, and her husband, it’s quite exciting to think about it.
