After a day of repairs at home, Fu Jichen arrived at the company half an hour early the next day.
Shen Jia Nian lived with him under the same roof and was forced to go with him.
After sitting down at the workstation, Shen Jianian yawned and lay on the table to catch up on his sleep. She stayed up until two in the morning reading the meeting materials last night, she was too sleepy.
There is no way, she doesn't know anything at the moment, she can only work hard and spend more time than others.
The sound of a string of high heels disturbed her dream. Shen Jia Nian sat up in confusion and found that the person who came in was Zhu Yilan. He quickly stood up and said hello: "Good morning, secret."
"morning."
Zhu Yilan nodded lightly, his eyes flickering across her face, and walked towards his independent office.
To be honest, aside from the fact that she was jealous of Shen Jia Nian being Fu Jichen's woman, there was nothing to criticize about Shen Jia Nian. At most, Shen Jia Nian was not proficient in business and could not keep up with the overall office efficiency of the secretarial office.
Since she came here, she has not relied on her status to ask for help, nor has she been arrogant to anyone, nor has she cheated or cheated. Instead, she has worked harder than others. That alone is worth admiring.
Zhu Yilan put his bag on his desk and took out his mobile phone. It was half past eight, and there was still an hour before the meeting started.
She glanced out through the glass door. Shen Jia Nian was here, which meant that that person was also here and should be in the office at the moment.
Zhu Yilan thought for a while, left the secretary's office, went straight to the president's office a few meters away, raised his hand and knocked on the door.
While waiting for a second or two, her palms became sweaty, and her throat seemed to be choked by something, making her breathless. Recalling that she had never been so nervous on the first day she joined Junshan Group.
That night was so rushed and hectic that I didn’t have time to say a lot of things to express my stance.
Hearing a low "come in" from inside, Zhu Yilan took a deep breath and pushed the door open. Even though she had been mentally prepared before, the moment she saw him, her heart still trembled.
"Mr. Chen." Zhu Yilan stopped in front of his desk.
Fu Jichen put one hand on the open folder on the table, raised his eyelids and looked at her indifferently, his tone was as cold as before: "You have something to say."
Zhu Yilan blushed uncontrollably, out of shame and embarrassment, mixed with a hint of uneasiness. She didn't know if she could continue to stay with him.
"What happened that night was that I was confused and couldn't recognize myself. I hope you can forget it." Zhu Yilan lowered his voice, "I will definitely focus on my work in the future and not think about other things. Please , give me another chance and I will prove it to you."
Fu Jichen withdrew his gaze and looked at the documents in front of him without saying a word.
Zhu Yilan swallowed, feeling that there was a sword hanging above her head, which would fall down at any time and sentence her to life or death.
For a long time, Fu Jichen responded with one word without emotion: "Yeah."
For a moment, Zhu Yilan felt that the sword above her head had moved away, and she was rescued. A smile appeared on her tense face: "Thank you, Mr. Chen. I won't disturb you anymore."
She turned around to go out, and just as she held the doorknob with one hand, she heard the person behind her suddenly stop her: "Wait a minute."
Zhu Yilan stopped and looked back, waiting for his instructions.
Fu Jichen looked relaxed and said, "Take Shen Jia Nian to the store to pick out some dresses after get off work in the evening."
Compared with daily clothes, dresses have higher requirements on the body shape, so it is best to try them on in person.
Zhu Yilan looked unharmed and asked with a slight smile: "What occasion is it used for?"
"Party or something."
"Okay, I know."
Zhu Yilan packed up his mood and went out, adding a new itinerary to his memo. Staring at the line of words above, she still couldn't help but feel sad.
Feelings can't be taken back just by taking them back. It will be difficult for her to truly feel calm in a short period of time.
However, since she decided to control her heart, there will be many such things in the future, and she must learn to pretend not to care.

After work, Zhu Yilan went to find Shen Jianian with his bag.
"Choose a dress?" Shen Jianian looked at her in surprise.
Zhu Yilan nodded: "Mr. Chen arranged it."
Shen Jia Nian was a little confused. She had never heard Fu Jichen mention it.
After thinking for a moment, she thought of the invitation the night before yesterday. The wedding banquet of Qin Fan and Yin Shuyao was about to be held at the Yinhai Hotel owned by the Qin family. Fu Jichen wanted to attend?
But she didn't say she was going.
"It's getting late, hurry up, take my car there." Zhu Yilan raised his wrist and looked at his watch, without asking her what she wanted. For her, the boss's words are orders and they must be completed.
Shen Jia Nian reluctantly followed Zhu Yilan and got into her car.
In the car, she called Fu Jichen, but he didn't answer the first call. She called the second call, and the other party answered the call. She said directly: "I don't want to go to the wedding, can I not go?"
Her uncle and aunt must be present at Yin Shuyao's wedding. She doesn't want to see that family again, let alone let them see her and Fu Jichen together.
Zhu Yilan, who was driving, glanced at her distractedly. She heard it right. Shen Jianian actually rejected the boss.
On the phone, Fu Jichen's tone was lazy, but what he said was unquestionable: "No."
Does he like to force others into difficulties so much? Shen Jianian was so angry that he hung up the phone, his chest heaved violently several times, and he cursed in a low voice: "Crazy."
Zhu Yilan's face was full of surprise and he looked at her again.
Shen Jia Nian was confused with anger. When his eyes met hers for a moment, he asked, "Does he treat you like this too?"
"What?" Zhu Yilan didn't understand.
"I said Fu Jichen, he often asks you to do things you don't want to do in private?"
Zhu Yilan was stunned. Her words sounded strange. Did she misunderstand something?
"That night at Rose Manor, my meeting with the boss was a work matter, not what you think." Zhu Yilan explained in a calm tone.
Shen Jia Nian looked at her in astonishment. She ran out of Fu Jichen's bedroom that night, her clothes were messy, her eyes were red, her hair and makeup had lost their previous exquisiteness, she looked obviously bullied, anyone who saw her would misunderstand her and What did Fu Jichen do inside?
Zhu Yilan looked forward, tapping the steering wheel with his fingers, thinking about how to save his dignity. After thinking about it, he couldn't find a good way to say it, so he said dryly: "I always have wishful thinking towards Chen. Other than that, there is nothing else." of."
Shen Jianian was silent all the way.
The destination is a high-end luxury brand store in a shopping mall. After parking the car in the underground parking lot, Zhu Yilan got out, locked the car and walked to the elevator.
Zhu Yilan felt wind under her feet as she walked, and Shen Jia Nian barely kept up with her pace. He entered the elevator and turned around to stand, watching her press the fifth floor button.
"What about you?" Zhu Yilan suddenly asked, "Are you dating Chen?"
Zhu Yilan didn't look at her as he spoke, staring at the numbers that kept jumping above the elevator.
Shen Jianian couldn't answer. She and Fu Jichen were just making a deal. They didn't even have feelings, so how could they talk about dating. Of course she couldn't tell this to an outsider.
Her friendship with Zhu Yilan was not that deep, so she could only remain silent.
Zhu Yilan didn't insist on an answer. Shen Jia Nian refused to say it, so she pretended that she hadn't mentioned it.
The elevator stopped on the fifth floor and the two of them walked out.
"This way." Zhu Yilan had been here many times and was familiar with the surrounding area. He pointed to the right and said to Shen Jianian, "This brand is more suitable for you."
Shen Jianian followed her into the store. A shopping guide wearing a dark blue skirt came over and greeted her cordially: "Miss Zhu, are you here with your friends? Do you want to choose a dress?"
"Help me pick out some dresses for the banquet." Zhu Yilan pushed Shen Jianian forward.
The shopping guide's eyes moved to Shen Jianian's face, and his eyes suddenly lit up. We receive all kinds of female customers every day. There are some who are beautiful and have excellent temperament, but I have never seen one as outstanding as this one.
"This lady has fair skin, outstanding appearance, and a slender and well-proportioned figure. I feel that many styles are suitable for her." The shopping guide used to praise customers with the intention of inducing consumption, but this time he was sincere.
Zhu Yilan browsed around the store and asked Shen Jianian: "Is there anything you like?"
Before Shen Jia Nian could speak, the shopping guide began to sell enthusiastically: "You can try the treasure of our store. The goods were just shipped from Europe last week. They are catwalk styles and limited edition worldwide. Last night there was a female star. The stylist came to borrow it, but our store manager didn’t lend it to me.”
As the shopping guide spoke, he led them to a slightly open area. In the glass display window, a smoke blue gauze skirt hung on a mannequin. The gauze is very thin, like clouds and mist, and the color of the skin seems to show through when worn on the body. The upper body and skirt are staggeredly decorated with three-dimensional pale pink and mint green silk flowers, and the branches and leaves are embroidered with lustrous silk threads.
The whole dress is fairy-like, elegant and gorgeous. The shopping guide can imagine how stunning it would be on Shen Jianian.
"Is this the one you want?" Zhu Yilan turned to ask Shen Jianian for his opinion, "Pick out two others for important occasions in the future."
When the shopping guide waiting nearby heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Shen Jianian used to fly abroad with her best friends to watch high-end luxury brand shows, and she had a certain understanding of the dresses in the shows. The one in front of her was not cheap just based on the material and design. If it is a work by a well-known designer, the brand effect and personal fame will be even more expensive, and seven figures should not be exceeded.
Female celebrities in the entertainment industry usually borrow their clothes for the red carpet and then return them when they are done. It would be too luxurious to buy them directly.
"Or else..."
As soon as Shen Jia Nian finished speaking, a familiar and arrogant female voice suddenly came from behind: "I want this dress, please wrap it up for me."
Shen Jia Nian froze.
There was no need to look back to verify anything, she knew that the person speaking was Yin Shuyao.
