Early the next morning.
Zhuli showed up at the company as usual. She pinched her dizzy temples and stood at the elevator entrance.
Ding-
The elevator door opened, and she lowered her head and entered.
Suddenly, a pair of sharp-jointed hands grasped the elevator door, and then the man stepped in with long legs.
Zhuli closed her eyes slightly and didn't want to pay attention to who was next to her.
Just as the elevator door closed again, another pair of bony hands held it.
"Morning, Mr. Jing." Qiao Jue's voice was like jade, slowly chanting.
After greeting him, he turned his head to Zhuli and said, "The breakfast I brought to my friend turned out to be eaten by him."
He scratched his head slightly embarrassed, with a low voice, and handed over the still warm breakfast in his hand.
"Help me sort it out."
Zhuli naturally knew what Qiao Jue meant, and her clear eyes flashed.
"Thank you, Manager Qiao, I've had breakfast."
She tried to wake herself up a little and smiled.
Qiao Jue paused, unable to force himself to withdraw his hand.
"Manager Qiao, let me help you solve it. I haven't had breakfast yet."
The man behind him slowly turned his head to the side, lowered his eyes and said with a smile.
Qiao Jue was obviously shocked, but he couldn't refuse and had to give him the breakfast in his hand.
Jing Huaizhi took it naturally, holding the breakfast sent by his love rival in his left hand, and put his right hand on Zhuli's shoulder.
There was a touch on his shoulder, Zhuli's eyebrows moved slightly, and he quietly hit him with his elbow, signaling him not to be too presumptuous.
Qiao Jue quickly noticed the two men's actions. His eyes were filled with narrowed eyes, but he could only clench his fists tighter.
In his eyes, Jing Huaizhi's actions only meant that he was using his status as CEO to suppress Zhuli.
Zhuli didn't dare to resist and could only acquiesce.
That's all.
It seemed like he had to be more obvious.
"Zhuli, you are free tonight..." Before Qiao Jue finished speaking, the elevator door opened.
"Manager Qiao, we're here." Jing Huaizhi let go of his hand a second before the elevator arrived and smiled lazily.
He could only give up.
Zhuli turned her head and glared at him, then followed Qiao Jue down the elevator.
In the office.
"Did you have any clues that fell into Mr. Jing's hands?"
As soon as he returned to the operations department, Qiao Jue pushed Zhuli into his office.
He sounded anxious as he closed the door.
Zhuli was confused and shook her head.
"Mr. Qiao, stop kidding me." Her face was calm and her eyebrows arched.
After Qiao Jue looked at it for a few times, he sighed: "If you really have something to hide, I can..."
Seeing that Qiao Jue was getting more and more outrageous, Zhuli could only change the topic.
"Manager Qiao, have you chosen the new product spokesperson?"
He came to his senses and thoughtfully took out a stack of documents and pushed them in front of her.
Zhuli bent down to take it, and glanced at it, his delicate facial features were instantly filled with panic.
This is?
"She was selected through votes from netizens and internal voting within the group." Qiao Jue said calmly with his fingers clasped on the table.
His words also explained that this spokesperson was not intentional on his part, it was indeed a coincidence.
"Okay, I understand, I will communicate with her properly." Zhuli pursed her lower lip, her expression a little erratic.
Ding-
The screen of the mobile phone placed on the desk lit up.
Du Jianzhou: Brother, come out for a drink tonight? Let you witness a miracle.
At the same time, a new message came into Zhuli's mobile phone.
Boss (arrears version): I’ll treat you to dinner tonight.
With just a few words, Zhuli's heart rose to her throat again.
She looked around to make sure no one noticed her, then decided to decline.
Halfway through saying no, I suddenly remembered what happened last night.
He just rescued me yesterday and took care of me for one night, so refusing like this is a bit repaying kindness with enmity.
Besides, it’s just a meal and there shouldn’t be anything else to do.
With so many thoughts in her mind, Zhuli replied well.
Rhine Mall.
When Zhuli arrived, she realized that it was not just Jing Huaizhi. She was stunned for a moment and her eyes averted a bit.
He originally wanted to sit far away from him, but today he chose only four seats.
Now it seems that only Jing Huaizhi's side is empty.
She sat down hesitantly, and suddenly a voice sounded in her ears.
"Zhuli?"
She raised her head, and Qiao Jue's familiar face appeared in front of her eyes.
She opened her mouth not knowing what to say. She turned sideways and glanced at the man beside her, and immediately understood the meaning of the meal.
"Manager Qiao." Zhuli stood up and said politely.
After everyone sat down, the atmosphere felt indescribably weird.
Especially between Jing Huaizhi and Qiao Jue, even though neither of them spoke, there was a chill that made Du Jianzhou shiver.
"Look what else you want to eat." Du Jianzhou picked up the menu on the table and handed it to Zhuli, taking the lead in breaking the weird atmosphere.
She paused with her raised hand and waved: "Don't bother, I can do it."
After speaking, she picked up the cup in front of her and took a sip of water.
"Order what you want to eat, otherwise others will think I'm abusing you." A lazy voice sounded in my ears.
Jing Huaizhi reached out and rubbed the top of her hair, and what he said was very thought-provoking.
"Oh, by the way, I forgot to introduce."
Jing Huaizhi pushed up his glasses and slowly said words that shocked Qiao Jue.
"Zhuli is my wife, the legitimate one."
He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, then took out two marriage certificates from his suit jacket and placed them on the dining table.
Qiao Jue rubbed his hands and deliberately didn't look at it: "Zhuli, I'll help you mix the sauce."
It must be a lie made up by Mr. Jing to get him to quit. He is so sophisticated that he can even fake the marriage certificate.
Zhuli will definitely not be happy if she follows him. Only by following him will she be happy.
Yes, that’s right!
He was so distracted that he spilled the sauce on the counter.
When he came back again, the marriage certificate on the dining table had been opened.
Zhuli's delicate eyebrows and Jing Huai's handsome facial features were caught in his eyeballs.
The date, ID number and even the stamp are all there.
this......
Snapped-
His hands shook, and the dishes in his hands fell to pieces on the ground.
"Are you okay?" Du Jianzhou didn't know what was going on, so he quickly stood up and walked to his side.
Qiao Jue's whole body was tense and trembling. He tried to calm himself down.
"No, it's okay."
He looked at the broken dishes as if his heart was in pieces. He wanted to pick them up and put them back together but could never go back.
Jing Huaizhi casually took in all Qiao Jue's movements, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "What's going on, Manager Qiao?"
"Why are you so careless?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a pair of sweaty fingers under the table pinched him hard, signaling him to stop talking.
Zhuli only confirmed this morning that Qiao Jue did have different feelings for her. She wanted to find an opportunity to explain the situation to him, but there was someone more anxious than her.
In the second half, Qiao Jue stopped talking and just ate hot pot and drank wine alone, constantly adding chili pepper to the bowl to numb his broken heart.
