The next day, Yan Qing went out to discuss cooperation with the director. After coming out, he wandered around the hotel somewhat bored, with his hands behind his back, looking here and there, like a villager who had never seen the world.
"Hey, Cheng Zijue!"
Yan Qing saw a familiar figure from a distance, and after taking two quick steps, he found that it was indeed Cheng Zijue.
Yan Qing didn't know what he was thinking. His brain suddenly jumped and he ran a few steps quickly. Before Cheng Zijue could react, he patted him lightly on the shoulder.
Cheng Zijue was thinking about something when he was suddenly startled. He turned around quickly and saw that it was Yan Qing.
"sister in law!"
Yan Qing was a little confused. Why did this man call her sister-in-law? Logically speaking, she was the girlfriend of one of his employees. Well... she could barely be considered a girlfriend!
Calling your employee's girlfriend "sister-in-law" is not wrong, but why does it feel so awkward?
When Cheng Zijue saw Yan Qing's confused look, he felt annoyed and had actually forgotten Huo Beiting's current identity.
"What a coincidence!"
Cheng Zijue turned his eyes away guiltily and said something meaningless in a restless manner.
"Yes! I saw a figure from a distance, but I was afraid of making a mistake, so I observed it for a long time before I dared to come up!"
Yan Qing chuckled twice, but Cheng Zijue wanted to slap himself twice in his heart.
Someone had been following me for such a long time, but I didn't even notice it. I must have been living in such a comfortable life that my vigilance has decreased so much.
"Are you here alone? Huo... Beiting isn't with you?"
Cheng Zijue looked back a few times but didn't see anyone. He thought that someone had gone to buy something for his sister-in-law, but when he came to his senses, he found that his sister-in-law was looking at him with a very strange look.
"What's wrong?"
Cheng Zijue touched his head in confusion and recalled what he had just said. There was nothing wrong with it!
"Didn't he go to work at the company? A few days ago he said there was a lot of work to do at the company. He's been running to the company these past two days, and sometimes he even brings back some work!"
Yan Qing spoke softly, successfully giving Cheng Zijue goosebumps.
I was regretting what I had just said, and now how to smooth things over.
Fortunately, Yan Qing didn't want to find out the truth. After all, Cheng Zijue was the boss of a company. No matter how much he valued his employees, it was impossible for him to know everything and what every employee was doing. So he casually asked about Huo Beiting's situation in the company.
"Is Beiting okay at the company? It's his first time in the workplace, and I'm always worried about what might happen. If anything does happen, please be patient!"
Yan Qing said this sincerely, and wondered whether he should give Cheng Zijue a gift someday.
Although Cheng Zijue is highly regarded in the industry, it is definitely not wrong to give him a gift.
"Ah! Very good! Huo Beiting is down-to-earth and hardworking. Even though he's new to the workplace, he's not as good as some of the veteran employees in some areas. Now I basically leave all the big and small things to him, because I only feel at ease with things he takes over. Over here, since Huo Beiting helps me handle most of the work, I have time to come out for a stroll!"
Cheng Zijue spoke with both lies and praise, and after he finished speaking, the back of his shirt was a little wet.
I thought to myself that I was the best buddy in the world, and I was almost wasting all my brain cells for my brother.
"Really? That's really good!"
Yan Qing frowned. This was a little different from what Huo Beiting had said. He felt something was not right.
Cheng Zijue was not a person who just sat there for nothing. He had noticed that something was wrong with Yan Qing a long time ago. His heart suddenly started beating fast, and he quickly found an excuse to leave.
"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. We can talk again later when we have time!"
Having said that, Cheng Zijue slipped away in a hurry.
Originally, Yan Qing just felt something was wrong, but Cheng Zijue had just said that he was fine today. Now he just said a few words and didn't even answer the phone, but said that he had something to do. Isn't this just an excuse to leave!
I'm not a man-eating monster, so why should I leave without saying a few words?
The more Yan Qing thought about it, the more puzzled he found it, and finally he blamed everything on Huo Beiting.
Huo Beiting's behavior became so strange when she was talking to Cheng Zijue about it, so it would be right to go back and ask Huo Beiting.
After dinner that night, Yan Qing grabbed Huo Beiting who wanted to go upstairs, pulled him to the sofa, and looked at him with a scrutinizing look, folding his arms.
Huo Beiting felt a little uneasy when Yan Qing looked at him. He was worried that Yan Qing would know what he had done to Gu Mingche, but he shouldn't do that!
But apart from this incident, he has not done anything recently. He has been staying at home honestly and being a househusband.
"What's going on!"
Huo Beiting thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so he decided to take the initiative.
So he gently pinched Yan Qing's cheek and spoke proactively.
Yan Qing told Huo Beiting about what she saw Cheng Zijue this morning and wanted to hear his explanation.
When Huo Beiting heard this, he cursed in his heart, his mind racing, trying to think of an excuse.
Yan Qing did not urge him and waited quietly.
"Um... do you know what's been going on with Gu Mingche recently? I don't know how Gu Mingche offended Cheng Zijue, so he asked me to help deal with Gu Mingche these past two days. After all, Gu Mingche is your ex-boyfriend, so I was worried that you might think too much, so I kept it a secret. I also told the boss not to tell anyone if he sees you!"
Huo Beiting thought about it and finally decided to tell a half-truth. This would not only give himself a good excuse, but also prevent Yan Qing from being angry with him when she found out that he was dealing with Gu Mingche. More importantly, he could put all the blame on Cheng Zijue.
It's not that he doesn't want to do good things, but the other person is the boss and he is just an employee. The boss has given the order, so he can't refuse!
Huo Beiting had a very good idea and was very happy in his heart, but he pretended on his face that he was forced to do it.
Yan Qing sighed softly and silently apologized to Huo Beiting in her heart.
Or maybe I was too suspicious and actually thought that Huo Beiting was hiding something from me.
"Is that so! I've completely let go of Gu Mingche. If you want to deal with that kind of scum, don't think about me, just go for it!"
Yan Qing leaned her head on Huo Beiting's shoulder as she spoke, holding his hand and playing with it slowly, secretly sighing that Huo Beiting's hands were really big!
"I'm just worried that you'll be angry!"
"Why should I be angry? He was the one who wronged me first, so you're indirectly helping me vent my anger. I can't thank you enough, so how could I be angry? Aren't you being too petty?"
Yan Qing smiled and tapped Huo Beiting's forehead, and the matter was over.
