Seeing the big boss walking towards them, not only did Zhu Xia's legs go weak, but her colleagues and secretary also felt that something was wrong and took a step back together.
The assistant's mind was buzzing with many guesses.
Is there something wrong with Zhu Xia? Is she a commercial spy?
That’s not right. Zhu Xia has passed the identity assessment, and the company even plans to focus on training her. Why would the boss have such a big reaction?
Just when her mind was in a mess, the big boss was already standing in front of them.
"Sister Xia."
Xia, Sister Xia?
The colleagues and secretaries were people who had seen the world, but the boss's call of "Sister Xia" still frightened them so much that they could not control their expressions and showed surprise and horror.
The colleague turned to look at Zhu Xia with mixed feelings.
My colleague who rides an electric bike to and from work is actually someone whom the big boss calls "sister". It's so absurd that even TV dramas dare not film it like this.
Someone above you should have told you this earlier. Do you know how much effort the entire department has put in to verify your identity?
The atmosphere seemed to become stagnant after Yan Ting called out "Sister Xia".
Sister Xia really wanted to sit down on the ground trembling, but when everyone turned their eyes to her, she surprisingly calmed down.
There was only one thought in her messy mind: she was Zhao Zhao's sister, and no one could hurt her by relying on status or money.
The corners of her mouth moved slightly, but she couldn't bring herself to call out "Xiao Yan".
Yes, who could have thought that the legendary big boss who was elusive would be with her brother?
Qin Xiao noticed that something was wrong, and he said to his secretary: "You go to work first."
The secretary and his colleagues recovered and hurriedly left the scene.
In the face of salary, all curiosity seems insignificant.
After her colleagues and the people from the secretariat left, Zhu Xia finally spoke up: "Does Zhao Zhao know?"
Yan Ting was silent for a moment: "Sister Xia, let's go to the office and talk slowly."
Stepping into the big boss' office, Zhu Xia found that she was not excited at all, and even began to doubt Yan Ting's purpose of getting close to Zhao Zhao.
Who wouldn't be able to get a big shot like Yan Ting?
What is his attitude towards Zhao Zhao?
Yan Ting's office style, like him, is full of coldness and alienation.
The only thing that seemed out of place in this office was the pillow on the office chair. The Q-version doll on the pillow looked very cute. Sister Xia recognized it at first glance; it was a portrait of Zhao Zhao.
"Sister Xia, please sit down." Yan Ting took the water cup from Qin Xiao and placed it in front of Zhu Xia himself: "Zhao Zhao doesn't allow me to drink coffee and tea, so I have to let you drink boiled water for the time being."
"Drinking boiled water is good for your health." Zhu Xia took a deep breath and tried to make her posture more natural.
Qin Xiao glanced at the two of them, left the office, and closed the door for them.
"Boss, although it's working hours now, please forgive me for talking to you about something unrelated to work in my personal capacity." Zhu Xia picked up the water cup and drank a big gulp to relieve the tension in her heart: "I want to find out whether Zhao Zhao knows that you are the boss of Cang Huan."
Yan Ting lowered his eyelids and looked at the steam rising from the cup: "I'm sorry, he doesn't know."
"Why did you lie to him?" Zhu Xia didn't understand: "Are you worried that Zhao Zhao would covet your money after knowing your identity?"
Even if he is a big boss, he can't look at her Zhao Zhao like this!
"If money can make him stay with me forever, why would I keep it secret from him?" Yan Ting's hands are very beautiful, slender and clean. A man with such hands can easily arouse women's sympathy even if he has no expression.
"Zhao Zhao and I first met because of a misunderstanding." The water in the cup accidentally shook out and spilled on the back of Yan Ting's hand. The water droplets slid down the back of his hand like two lines of tears.
"You don't know how beautiful his eyes are when he smiles, like a warm little sun." Yan Ting looked at Zhu Xia: "I want him to stay by my side, that's all."
These eyes were so sincere that Zhu Xia felt that no matter what Zhao Zhao asked Yan Ting to do, Yan Ting would agree to it.
"In front of the person you love, it is very important to be honest." Zhu Xia put down the cup: "You should understand that lies will be exposed one day."
"Sister Xia, I don't dare to gamble." Yan Ting took out a handkerchief and slowly wiped the water off the back of his hand: "I can gamble big on many things, but when it comes to Zhao Zhao, I am a coward who can't afford to lose."
"Do you want to keep it a secret from Zhao Zhao forever?" Zhu Xia couldn't help but raise her voice: "But can you keep it a secret forever?"
Yan Ting: "I will find a chance to tell Zhao Zhao, Sister Xia, I hope you can..."
"I can't." Zhu Xia interrupted Yan Ting: "Zhao Zhao is my brother. He is the child I watched grow up. He is not someone you can deceive your feelings for."
"Yan Ting, no matter whether you are sincere or not, the most intolerable thing in the matter of love is deception." Zhu Xia shook her head: "I know what you want to say, I will not agree."
Yan Ting's pupils were dark, as if they were unfathomably deep, hiding countless dangers.
The screams of women and the roars of men suddenly came from all directions. His pupils trembled slightly, and Yan Ting's voice became hoarse: "Sister Xia, the only person I care about in my life is Zhao Zhao."
No one can take Zhao Zhao away from him.
No one can.
"When I first met Zhao Zhao, he was only ten years old." Zhu Xia didn't know why she told Yan Ting all this. It might be because Li Zhao had a very hard childhood, so hard that she couldn't bear to see him get hurt in any way in his relationship.
"He's 10 years old, but he looks like a 7 or 8 year old, and he still has old scars from being abused by his adoptive parents." Zhu Xia said in a heavy tone, "On the first day at the welfare home, the aunt gave him a chicken leg, and he gobbled it up, and even when he choked, he was reluctant to spit it out."
"Do you know why he is like this?"
Zhu Xia's eyes were slightly red. "Because he was in his adoptive parents' home, he was often beaten by his adoptive parents or his younger brother when he was halfway through a meal, so he was always hungry. Later, in order to get enough food, he stuffed it into his mouth as soon as the meal started, even if he was beaten."
"After he came to the welfare home, some kind-hearted people offered to adopt him, but he refused." Zhu Xia held the teacup tightly and calmed herself down: "He said he wanted to wait for his biological parents to pick him up."
"The national TV station has a program about finding biological children. Every time the program starts, Zhao Zhao does her homework early and stays in front of the TV, not wanting to miss any news about finding her biological child."
"Gradually, he stopped watching the show and stopped talking about his parents." Zhu Xia choked up a little: "A young man his age should have studied hard in college. But because of my illness, he gave up his studies and ran to a strange city to save money desperately."
"I'm not saying this to make you sympathize with Zhao Zhao, but to make you understand." Zhu Xia stood up, her legs no longer shaking, and her voice became firm: "Even if you are a big boss that no one dares to offend, I will not help you hurt him."
"The person who least wants to hurt Zhao Zhao is me." Seeing Zhu Xia preparing to leave, Yan Ting stood up and blocked the door: "Sister Xia, I don't want to hurt Zhao Zhao, please give me some time."
Zhu Xia looked at him without saying anything.
"Zhao Zhao, this is my life."
Yan Ting's voice was calm, as if he was explaining something simple: "Sister Xia, I can't bear the possibility of Zhao Zhao leaving me."
Zhu Xia was shocked, her intuition told her that what Yan Ting said was true.
But what kind of relationship is it to regard the other person as important as your life?
Zhu Xia admitted that she was a little soft-hearted.
She knew how important Yan Ting was to Zhao Zhao, and she didn't want him to be sad, but all this shouldn't be based on deception.
"One month." Zhu Xia sighed helplessly: "Yan Ting, I will give you one month. I hope you can explain it to Zhao Zhao yourself. During this month, I will not take the initiative to talk to Zhao Zhao about this matter, but if Zhao Zhao asks me, I will tell you the truth."
"Thanks."
"Don't thank me. I just don't want Zhao Zhao to be sad."
"If Zhao Zhao didn't value you so much that he even cared about what kind of water you drank, I would have told Zhao Zhao about this immediately even if I had to give up my job."
"Can you please tell me more about Zhao Zhao's childhood?" Yan Ting asked Zhu Xia to sit down: "I want to know more about him."
"With your status and position, is there anything you can't find out?"
"What I heard from you is more vivid than the cold investigation report." Yan Ting shook his head slowly: "I don't want to learn about his past in a way that disrespects Zhao Zhao."
Zhu Xia's expression eased a lot: "What do you want to know?"
"What he likes and what he hates..."
Zhu Xia stared at Yan Ting for a few seconds, then suddenly laughed: "Boss, children who grew up in an orphanage don't have the right to choose to like or dislike someone."
The clothes they wear and the backpacks they carry are all bought by welfare home staff or donated by kind-hearted people, and are of very good quality.
As long as it's intact and clean, they like it.
Yan Ting couldn't imagine how Li Zhao grew up.
"If, I mean if..." Zhu Xia's smile turned extremely bitter: "Zhao Zhao likes reading very much. If there is a chance, let him finish college."
Even she didn't know what Zhao Zhao liked most.
"Zhao Zhao likes sweets very much and hates carrots and konjac." Yan Ting said: "He likes to eat green leafy vegetables, but doesn't like vegetables like lentils, green beans, and okra, but he likes tomatoes very much."
Zhu Xia was stunned. In her memory, common vegetables such as lentils and green beans were often eaten in the welfare home, and Zhao Zhao always ate them all without leaving any.
"Tomato..." She remembered that Zhaozhao had a big appetite since he was a child. When he returned home from school, it was not yet dinner time and he was hungry. The cook would often call him to the canteen and stuff him with rice balls or tomatoes to fill his stomach.
Every time, Zhaozhao would squat obediently in the canteen, eat everything cleanly, and then help the staff sweep the floor or wash the vegetables.
Every time the hospital bought tomatoes, Zhao Zhao especially liked to go to the canteen, just to eat one more tomato.
At that time, she was busy taking the college entrance examination and going to college, and never seriously observed Zhaozhao's hobbies.
"Zhao Zhao also hates taro." Yan Ting lowered his head, looking a little lonely: "But he is so nice. No matter what the chef at home cooks, he always says it's good."
"Sometimes, I hope he can be a little more willful to me, and throw a tantrum and tell me that he wants to buy a car or a house." Yan Ting said: "I want Zhao Zhao to have what other children have. Whether it is financially or spiritually, he must have it."
Zhu Xia: “…”
Fortunately, you and Zhao Zhao are together and cannot have children, otherwise you would definitely raise a naughty child.
What?
Are you proud of yourself for making your own child do something naughty?
After dinner, Mr. Sun originally planned to invite Li Zhao and Lu Hao to an entertainment venue to relax, but when he thought of Li Zhao's relationship with Mr. Ting, he gave up the idea.
Although he wanted to take the two of them to a pure and clean place to play, he was afraid that the news would get to Mr. Ting's ears and turn into something else. Then he would have to take the blame.
Forget it, forget it, I'd better take it back to the company and stay in the office to be serious.
Back at the company, CEO Sun took out the script of the big-budget movie invested by Strawberry Entertainment. "The company has been preparing for this movie for two or three years, and the production team has basically been decided. If you are interested, Lu Hao, the male lead is very suitable for you."
Lu Hao took the script and read the introduction. This is a commercial film with a realistic theme. Both the configuration and the script are very attractive.
I just signed with the company and Strawberry Entertainment gave me such a big gift. It seems that they are really sincere.
"There is also a big-budget historical TV series, but it is somewhat similar to your role in Tian Ge, and it won't do much good for your future career." Mr. Sun said frankly, "Lu Hao, your acting is very stable. Most of the time, stability is an advantage, but in the current highly competitive environment, being stable all the time is a bit boring and will reduce the audience's expectations of you."
"The future belongs to young people, and the future of the entertainment market certainly belongs to them." Mr. Sun took out another TV drama script from the drawer: "Would you like to try a lighter theme?"
"This is a TV series with two male protagonists." Mr. Sun turned his head to look at Li Zhao: "Zhao Zhao can also watch it."
After deciding to sign Lu Hao, Mr. Sun felt that this script was very suitable for Li Zhao and Lu Hao.
Li Zhao did not open the script immediately and explained, "Boss Sun, when will the TV series start filming?"
"We should wait until the second half of this drama." Mr. Sun smiled and said, "We can start filming after you finish shooting the movie."
Li Zhao nodded: "I will think about it carefully."
"Okay." Mr. Sun smiled gently, "Think about it carefully. Both roles will be reserved for you until you explicitly refuse."
"By the way, Zhaozhao, aren't you going to pick up your friend after get off work?" Mr. Sun glanced at the time and said, "It's easy to get stuck in traffic from the company to there. You should leave early to avoid being late."
How brave do you have to make Mr. Ting wait?
"Okay." Li Zhao stood up, walked to the door and suddenly stopped, turned to look at Mr. Sun: "Mr. Sun, how do you know where I'm going to pick up my friend?"
"Aren't you going to pick up Mr. Ting?" Mr. Sun realized that he had been exposed, but he didn't look flustered at all. He turned his head to look at the assistant next to him and said, "Xiao Cao, who mentioned that Zhao Zhao's friend works at Cang Huan?"
"Boss Sun, I can't remember clearly either." Cao Jia frowned: "Dake or Xiaoyuan?"
"Did I remember it wrongly?" Mr. Sun smiled at Li Zhao and said, "I'm old and my memory is not good."
"You're not mistaken. My friend does work at Cang Huan." Li Zhao smiled. "Then I'll be leaving first. Bye, Mr. Sun, Brother Hao, and Assistant Cao."
"Goodbye." Mr. Sun personally escorted Li Zhao to the corridor: "If you need anything, feel free to call me or Assistant Cao."
Looking at Mr. Sun and Assistant Cao's enthusiastic attitude towards Li Zhao, Lu Hao secretly sighed in his heart that the top management of Strawberry Entertainment was really courteous to the talented.
Mr. Sun’s reminder was very useful. The car was stuck halfway before it even reached Canghuan.
A car cut in from the side lane and with a squeak, the two cars scraped against each other. Li Zhao knew that his car was seriously scratched without getting out of the car.
The car that scratched theirs was a red brand-name sports car.
When driving on the highway, ordinary cars would want to stay away from it.
"How do you drive?" A man wearing sunglasses got out of the red sports car and tapped the window of Li Zhao's car: "Get out."
Li Zhao opened the car window and looked, his face suddenly darkened.
It was the bastard who ran to Tingting’s door last time, saying bad things about Tingting and making trouble.
After seeing who was in the car, Yao Yuguang's expression changed.
He remembered the huge suitcase that was big enough to hold him, the pain he felt when Li Zhao beat him, and the crazy look in Yan Ting's eyes that wanted to kill him.
My head hurts, my feet hurt, my whole body hurts.
There are so many cars on the street, how did he end up offending Li Zhao?
"It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding." Yao Yuguang was afraid that Li Zhao would jump out of the car and beat him up without saying anything, so he quickly took out his wallet, took out all the cash, and handed it to Li Zhao: "It's all because I don't know how to drive. All the compensation is mine. How about we add WeChat and I'll transfer the money to you via WeChat. Cash may not be enough."
Dake, who was driving, felt his mood change from confused, scared, shocked to bewildered.
At the moment when he had a scratch with the luxury car, he felt desperate, but he never expected that the car owner, who was so aggressive just now, would make a 180-degree turn in his attitude after seeing Li Zhao's face.
Could this be a stalker fan who deliberately scratched Zhao Zhao's car to attract his attention?
Oh, what a scheming person.
Li Zhao tapped a few times on his phone and held it out the window.
"What is this?" Yao Yuguang felt that this page did not look like a WeChat QR code.
"Payment code." Li Zhao said expressionlessly: "Aren't you going to transfer money to me? Go ahead."
Yao Yuguang: “…”
He just wanted to hug Yan Ting’s boyfriend’s thigh, but he didn’t expect it to be so difficult?
But he didn't dare not turn.
After he honestly transferred some money to the other party, the car window was ruthlessly closed in front of him and the exhaust gas of the car sprayed all over his face.
This is not a pretty boy, this is clearly a pretty girl.
What kind of vision does Yan Ting have to fall in love with this kind of man?
His cell phone rang and someone sent him a text message.
[I can cooperate with you and help you deal with Yan Ting.] 】
Yao Yuguang rolled his eyes.
[Idiot, get out!] 】
Ask him to deal with Yan Ting, is he qualified?
Only an idiot would think so highly of him.
The author has something to say: Baby Tingting sat in front of Sister Xia with a bowl of vegetables: Zhao Zhao told me to eat less sugar and more vegetables. Have you seen the toys in my house? They were all given to me by Zhaozhao.
Sister Xia:?
Baby Tingting: So you can’t stop Zhaozhao from playing with me.
