"Honey, it hurts."
After shouting, seeing that Shen Mingzhu ignored him, he continued: "Wife."
"Wife?"
"Wife, I just hit my head. It hurts. Can you help me with the pain?"
As he said this, he moved closer to Shen Mingzhu, but Shen Mingzhu pushed him away without any hesitation, "Shut up and sit still!"
"oh."
Pei Yang was slapped in the face and sat back in his seat feeling aggrieved.
The carriage became quiet again.
Shen Mingzhu glanced distractedly towards the passenger seat and found that the man had fallen asleep again with his head against the car window.
She stepped on the accelerator with an expressionless face.
…
the next day.
Pei Yang woke up and looked at the different room environment. He was dazed for a long time before he realized that it was the guest room at home.
Rubbing his head, he walked out of the room and found Shen Mingzhu and the two children were already having breakfast.
"Good morning~"
"Good morning, Dad."
Compared to Pei Tang's enthusiastic response, Pei Ziheng was much more reserved and called out "Dad" lightly.
Shen Mingzhu ate her breakfast with her eyes lowered and ignored his greeting.
Pei Yang pulled out a dining chair and sat next to her. "Wife, I don't know what's going on. My right head hurts."
Both brother and sister looked towards him with concern in their eyes.
In contrast, Shen Mingzhu, who was closest to him, turned a deaf ear to them, said "I'm done eating" to the brother and sister, then got up and went back to the bedroom.
It was not until the bedroom door was closed lightly that Pei Yang realized that his wife seemed to be in a bad mood.
He looked at his daughter and asked, "Did you make your mother angry?"
Pei Tang reacted strongly: "I didn't! Mom was fine just now, she became like this when you came."
As he spoke, he also imitated Shen Mingzhu's gloomy expression, and he did it very lifelike.
Pei Yang looked at Pei Ziheng.
The latter gave him a "yes, that's it" expression.
Pei Yang wiped his face and began to recall what had made Shen Mingzhu angry, until his daughter wrinkled her nose and reminded him: "Dad, you stink."
Pei Yang looked at his body. It was still the same shirt he wore yesterday, with his tie hanging loosely. He raised his elbow to sniff and smelled a mixture of cigarettes, alcohol, and other strange smells. It was indeed unpleasant.
Pei Yang ran into the bathroom as quickly as possible to take a shower and wash his hair.
While washing his hair, he found a lump on the right side of his head that hurt when touched.
Hiss, how much did he drink last night to make his head swollen? After taking a shower, he wrapped himself in a bathrobe and went back to the bedroom.
"Honey, there's a bump on my head. It's so weird. I have no memory of it."
Seeing that Shen Mingzhu was putting on makeup and ignoring him, he interpreted it as Shen Mingzhu being angry because he drank too much last night.
"Those guys can drink too much. I won't drink with them anymore."
Seeing that Shen Mingzhu still ignored him, he reached out to pull Shen Mingzhu's sleeve in a flattering manner, "Wife, please pay attention to me, why did I sleep in the guest room last night?"
Shen Mingzhu pulled back her sleeves, picked up her bag and prepared to go out to work.
Pei Yang followed her and didn't return to the living room until she left the door.
Walking to the dinner table, he met the sympathetic and compassionate eyes of the brother and sister, and pretended to be calm: "Your mother is angry because she cares about me, is concerned about me, and is worried about me."
Pei Tang asked innocently: "Then why did mom let you sleep in the guest room?"
Pei Yang changed the subject of his heart attack: "Let's go play after we finish eating."
Pei Tang shook his head, looking happy, "My brother and I are going to his company to play."
Pei Yang looked at Pei Ziheng in confusion, "What company?"
After saying that, he called Pei Tang to go upstairs to change clothes.
Pei Yang looked at the business card in his hand and fell into deep thought.
My wife has her own food factory, Shen Ji, and various investment projects. Now even my son has his own technology company.
In comparison, he seemed like a waste.
…
Halfway through her work, Shen Mingzhu suddenly threw away her pen.
The gold pen hit the paper with a snapping sound. Huang Ju, who was waiting on the side, was surprised and nervous. "Boss Shen, is there something wrong with the document?"
"I have to go out for something. Leave the documents here for now and I'll deal with them when I come back."
After saying this, Shen Mingzhu picked up her bag and left the office.
This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~
After watching her leave, Huang Ju closed the documents on his desk one by one and put them into the basket for processing.
After finishing, she returned to her workstation outside.
Not long after I sat down, Pei Wenping came over and asked, "Did Mr. Shen sign last month's payroll? I'm waiting to use it."
"No, Mr. Shen just went out."
Then he lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Shen is in a bad mood today."
Pei Wenping was aroused by gossip and curiosity: "What's going on?"
"I don't know. When I came in the morning, I had a cold face and I didn't dare to speak loudly."
Pei Wenping was an experienced person, and she guessed it was a family problem as soon as she heard it, so she called Pei Yang as soon as she returned to the office.
"Is there anything going on between you and Mingzhu?"
Pei Yang pretended to be confused even though he knew the truth. "It's okay. What's wrong, sister?"
"Xiaoju said Mingzhu was in a bad mood today and just went out."
"Did you say what you were going to do?"
"No, I wanted to ask you, what time did you drink last night? When did you go home?"
Pei Yang couldn't remember anything at all. He was just thinking about calling Chen Yi after he was done with his work, but Pei Wenping called first.
He didn't dare tell Pei Wenping that he was drunk.
Although he is 34 years old, he is still a younger brother in front of Pei Wenping, and Pei Wenping can peel off a layer of skin from him in a minute.
After responding vaguely for a few words, he hung up the phone with an excuse and called Shen Mingzhu.
After the mobile phone rang for the second time, Shen Mingzhu directly removed the battery and the car finally became quiet.
After sitting quietly for three or four minutes, she pushed open the car door, got out and walked towards the Hengxin pager store across the street.
"Welcome... Madam Boss, why are you here?"
I just had dinner last night. I didn't give any gifts but got a big gift package of Spring Festival snacks for free. The employees were particularly warm and respectful to Shen Mingzhu.
"I'm passing by, come in and take a look."
Shen Mingzhu glanced around the store casually, then looked away without making a sound.
"How's business lately?"
"It's much better than last month. It's almost the New Year, and everyone's pockets are bulging."
After saying that, he noticed that the store was too quiet, and quickly explained: "There are usually not many people in the morning, but there are more customers in the afternoon and evening."
Shen Mingzhu nodded, "I remember the manager of your store is He Tao?"
"Yes, Manager He is on vacation today. Assistant Dai is on duty. She just went out."
As they were talking, Dai Mingfang, who was dressed fashionably, pushed the door and came back into the store.
Seeing Shen Mingzhu, she was slightly stunned before she walked up to greet him: "Sister-in-law, are you here to see Brother Pei? He..."
Shen Mingzhu smiled and interrupted: "In the workplace, just call me Mr. Shen." (End of this chapter)
