Lin Yuxi had a little insomnia again at night, and her mood was always easily affected by Zhou Yanjing.
She thought that she was still not cruel enough or cold-blooded enough, so when faced with his hot love, she still felt an unspeakable sourness in her silent heart.
How could it be possible to remain indifferent? In her more than twenty years of life, she had only loved one person, and he once occupied her entire soul.
He gave her strong love and taught her what hate is.
Everyone has their own interpretation of the meaning of vast love. The meaning of these two words to Lin Yuxi is engraved with Zhou Yanjing's name.
The reason why first love has such unshakable power over a person is because it defines your love.
Your first kiss, your first heart-to-heart look at each other, what you think love looks like, and how you love someone are all constructed by him and you.
From now on, everyone you love will have his indelible shadow.
For Lin Yuxi, love means being hurt to some extent.
When you love someone, you hand the deadly knife into his hand.
Therefore, Zhou Yanjing can be fearless, but she does not have the courage to experience it a second time.
Her childhood survival experience has shaped her outlook on life, just like her attitude towards financial management, where stability outweighs risks.
When I turned over, I saw the phone on the bedside table light up.
She picked it up and found a WeChat message from Shi Tang.
[Sister-in-law, my brother seems to be sad today. He drank a lot and was so drunk that he passed out. Can you come and pick him up?
After sending this message, Shi Tang sat on the sofa shaking his legs and looked at Zhou Yanjing next to him.
"Brother, do you think my sister-in-law will come?"
of course not.
Lin Yuxi's heart hardened, that was diamond.
But Zhou Yanjing still couldn't help but have a little expectation, wondering if she would care about him at all.
"Come back!" Shi Tang slapped Zhou Yanjing suddenly.
He glanced over and saw that in the dialog box, Lin Yuxi didn't say anything but sent a series of phone numbers.
"What do you mean? Whose number is this?" Shi Tang was about to dial it strangely.
Zhou Yanjing had looked away, his face was expressionless, and his voice was duller than the moonlight outside.
"No need to fight. It's Lao Liu's."
In the morning, Lin Yuxi heard the doorbell and glanced through the peephole. Sure enough, it was Zhou Yanjing outside carrying breakfast.
She didn't open it, pretending she didn't hear anything, and went back to wash up and put on makeup. When she changed clothes and opened the door, Zhou Yanjing was still standing there.
The door opened, and his eyes cast a deep look, which seemed to contain thousands of emotions.
But it only took a moment, and he returned to his usual self: "It's still early, have something to eat before going to work."
Lin Yuxi was like a selectively deaf and blind man. She turned a blind eye to him and walked to the elevator with the door closed.
Zhou Yanjing rang the neighbor's doorbell, and soon, Lin Yuxi heard a woman's surprised voice: "Handsome man, you are here to bring warmth again!"
Zhou Yanjing said with a smile in his voice: "I brought an extra portion along the way. How was the restaurant last time?"
"It's delicious! That shrimp dumpling is the best, the shrimp are big and fresh, and the passion fruit pudding is sour and sweet. My son likes it very much."
"What a coincidence, your taste is the same as my wife's." Zhou Yanjing said gracefully, "This seafood porridge is also good. She likes it very much. You can try it."
Lin Yuxi stared at the metal door of the elevator and listened to him chatting with others expressionlessly.
A few words spoken calmly and measuredly, the relationship between neighbors was closer, and at the same time, he established himself as the "husband next door" without leaving any trace.
The time was very accurate, and when the elevator arrived, he came over just in time.
He blocked the side of the elevator door with his hand, watched Lin Yuxi walk in, and said helplessly: "If you don't eat breakfast, your neighbor's son will be fattened by me."
Lin Yuxi stared at the numbers on the display screen and ignored them.
After the elevator door closed, Zhou Yanjing said: "I didn't sleep well yesterday and had a dream."
Lin Yuxi didn't respond.
"I dreamed that I hadn't come back for three years, and you secretly gave birth to a daughter without telling me, and you hid it from me. My daughter didn't recognize me, hugged Tan Yu's legs and called her daddy, which made me angry."
Lin Yuxi: "..."
Something strange.
"You're not really hiding a baby at home, are you?" Zhou Yanjing looked at her suspiciously, "You are guarding it every day, just because you are afraid that I will see it when I go in."
Lin Yuxi almost forgot that she was deaf and called him sick.
She endured it and still ignored him.
Zhou Yanjing hugged her from behind, and a helpless sigh fell from his head.
"If you don't eat breakfast, can you at least pay attention to me?"
When the elevator arrived, Lin Yuxi opened his arm: "When will you go with me to get the divorce certificate? I'll talk to you again."
Zhou Yanjing snorted: "Then I'd better poison you to silence."
Seeing the two people coming out, Lao Liu quickly got out of the car, opened the door, and waited respectfully. Lin Yuxi walked straight past, got into his taxi, and left.
For several days, Zhou Yanjing came to her door to report on time every morning. From the beginning, Lin Yuxi didn't open the door, but later he was so self-aware that he didn't even knock on the door.
Lin Yuxi didn't get off work on time at night, but almost every day when she came out, the Bentley was parked in front of the hospital.
Zhou Yanjing sometimes works on the computer in the car, and sometimes stands outside the car talking on the phone.
When working, he is much more serious than usual, and he has a decisive and decisive spirit.
Putting aside the things between them, Lin Yuxi could not deny that Zhou Yanjing was an undoubted genius. He was born to shine in the financial world and become a landmark figure.
But that didn't stop her from wanting to talk to him.
Lin Yuxi hadn't finished her work that day when she received a call from him.
She picked up and saw that Zhou Yanjing seemed to be busy there. Someone was talking nearby, about private equity or equity.
He spoke a few words quickly and methodically, and then turned to talk to her in a very patient tone: "I have something to do, will you wait for me?"
It was as if she was waiting for him to pick up.
"Why should I wait for you?" Lin Yuxi said indifferently, "I won't take your car."
Zhou Yanjing said, "Can't you sit down for a while?"
"Unless it's going to the Civil Affairs Bureau, I won't get in your car." Lin Yuxi hung up the phone ruthlessly after saying that.
Zhou Yanjing sat on the leather sofa in the office, took the phone away from his ear, and clicked his tongue: "A woman who lives at minus 105 degrees Celsius."
Several executives nearby looked at each other and did not dare to speak.
Zhou Yanjing put away his mobile phone and said to Yang Kang: "The day after tomorrow, you take Lao Fan to Germany. You will follow this acquisition case."
Yang Kang was stunned by the sudden heavy responsibility: "Mr. Zhou, do you want me to be responsible alone?"
Zhou Yanjing quickly flipped through the acquisition plan and made a few simple notes on it with a pen: "I can't leave now. Don't arrange any outbound trips for me in the near future."
"You used to personally handle such large-scale cross-border acquisitions." Yang Kang felt that the task was too heavy to bear. "Leave it to me, in case we don't win..."
"You have been with me for so long, let's see how much you have learned." Zhou Yanjing said, "Among the competitors, only Blonde Capital is worth looking at. They are in charge of David ChOW this time, and they will lose one of them. If you can't win, don't worry. Now that you’re back, just pack your bags and go back to your hometown to grow vegetables.”
Yang Kang's pressure suddenly felt like Mount Tai.
His professional ability is very strong, but his academic qualifications are not as good as those of returnees who graduated from prestigious schools. When he was looking for a job after graduation, he could only avoid the already famous big investment banks. He was lucky enough to choose Boyu, which was just starting out. .
In the past three years, following Zhou Yanjing, it would be no exaggeration to say that he has risen through the ranks.
Zhou Yanjing looked at the disheveled look on his face and changed his words in a gentle and kind voice: "It's just a project. If you lose it, just lose it. It's not a big deal. I won't really let you go back to grow vegetables."
The onlookers executives immediately praised him: "Yang Zhu, look at how kind Mr. Zhou is to you."
Yang Kang forced a smile and thought to himself, you still don't understand Zhou Papi well enough.
Sure enough, Zhou Yanjing closed the cap of his pen, put the approved plan on the table, and said without hesitation in front of several of his subordinates:
"You think of a way to get Lin Yuxi to deal with me."
