Chen Ming was telling the truth, but Qin Yanyu thought he was joking.
The two found a hot pot restaurant and ate leisurely for two hours before going back. The next day they were still busy with work.
Finally, by the weekend, Chen Ming had booked a restaurant, but Liu Xiujuan called and their world of two came to an end again.
Qin Yanyu felt a little guilty.
"I'm sorry. Next week, I will definitely make time to have dinner with you. Brother Ming, don't be angry. I promise not to work overtime or go home!"
She spoke seriously, holding up three fingers and looking at Chen Ming seriously.
"I am not angry."
Chen Ming reluctantly turned his head and kissed her.
"Anyway, I have a lot of time. Whenever you are free, we can go out to eat."
"To me, it's the same no matter where I eat, as long as you're by my side."
This sentence is a bit disgusting.
Chen Ming rarely expressed his feelings so directly. Qin Yanyu felt soft after hearing this. She couldn't help hugging his waist and rubbing her soft face back and forth against his waist muscles.
"Brother Ming, why are you so nice to me!"
"Since I've been with you, life has gotten better and better."
"Tell me, are you my lucky star?"
Qin Yanyu suddenly raised her face buried in Chen Ming's arms, and her flushed face became even cuter.
Chen Ming's rough hands touched her cheek, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "You are my lucky star."
Without you, I would have died long ago and would not be alive now.
Chen Ming didn't say the second half of the sentence, but his focused eyes made Qin Yanyu feel strangely shy.
After working overtime on the weekend, Chen Ming drove Qin Yanyu to the Qin family's old house.
When you push the door open and enter, the house is brightly lit and the dining table is fully decorated.
"Oh, I'm finally back, my family is waiting for you!"
Liu Xiujuan stood up happily and went to the bedroom to help Mrs. Qin out. Others were also called to the living room one after another.
"Tsk, it's different to have a relationship with Political Commissar Fu. You're so arrogant. Everyone has to make time to wait for you two. It's really incredible."
Qin Peng looked strangely beside him.
He was praised by everyone in the sales department this week, and everyone was asking him privately what the relationship between Chen Ming and Fu Shi was like.
Seeing their gossipy eyes, Qin Peng was annoyed to death.
Under his cold face, fewer colleagues came over, but the voices of discussion never stopped.
Most of them praised Chen Ming.
After a whole day of work, Qin Peng was depressed to death, but there was nothing he could do.
Because Qin Yuanzhou asked him to stay in the company and be more peaceful, so that the old lady could regain her confidence in their house.
Otherwise, when Mrs. Qin waits for a hundred years, the Qin family will not fall into their hands at all.
"What are you talking about? Your cousin is busy at work and the entire company depends on her alone."
"If you can't help me, forget it. What are you talking about?"
Sure enough, just after Qin Peng finished speaking, Qin Yuanzhou gave him a warning look.
"Dad, I'm just talking. It's a joke. Why are you so serious?"
Qin Peng pouted, but did not say any more sarcastic words.
"Okay, okay, what do we care about as a family?"
"Sit down, everyone. Today I made your favorite codfish and pickled fish. Please try it."
Liu Xiujuan smiled and smoothed things over, "You young people don't have a regular meal schedule. According to me, you should come back every week to check on me. This will save me from being bored at home and not daring to disturb you."
"There are a lot of things going on in Yanyu Company, and the meal time every day is like a war. I feel heartbroken when I see it."
Under the eyes of everyone, Qin Yanyu opened her mouth, but after all, she still didn't want to shame Liu Xiujuan in front of so many people.
"I'm fine now. Brother Ming is taking care of me and I'm eating well."
Qin Yanyu told the truth.
Although Chen Ming was promoted to deputy supervisor in the company, he still went home to buy groceries and cook meals every day. He rarely attended department gatherings and did not go out to socialize.
He took good care of Qin Yanyu's stomach and gave her acupuncture at home from time to time.
Chen Ming's support in life is indispensable for her to be able to handle the company's affairs freely.
Thinking of this, Qin Yanyu looked at Chen Ming with gentler eyes.
"Newlyweds just have a good relationship, which is different from us old couples."
Liu Xiujuan smiled, then looked at Mrs. Qin, "Mom, I think Xiao Chen is someone who knows how to live a good life, otherwise he would have taken over the companies at home with average revenue."
"Didn't you say last week that the documents of those companies were incomplete and you were afraid of being investigated?"
"Xiao Chen and Political Commissar Fu are good friends, why don't you let him do it?"
After successfully bringing the topic down to business, the smile on Liu Xiujuan's face disappeared.
Dafang's two children both left the company from the old lady, and Qin Yuanzhou also had several of them.
Only their second bedroom had nothing.
Liu Xiujuan has always been dissatisfied, but because Qin Yuanshan is a failure, she can't say this.
Now finding an excuse, she immediately put the matter on the agenda.
"Second Aunt, what you said is wrong," Qin Yanran, who had not spoken much, suddenly said, "Chen Ming's connections depend on his mother, and he has no ability himself."
"Political Commissar Fu is probably polite to him because of the Han family's sake. If you ask Chen Ming to take charge of the company, will he do it?"
"It wasn't much business to begin with. If he intervenes again, it might be gone in less than half a month."
"And Political Commissar Fu may not sell his face."
"It's a small thing to say a few words to someone outside, but it's a big deal to get the certificate."
Qin Yanran spoke eloquently and blocked Liu Xiujuan's words.
"But, but..."
Liu Xiujuan pursed her lips and couldn't refute for a long time.
She took a sneak peek at Mrs. Qin's expression, pinched Qin Yuanshan with her hand under the table, and motioned for him to help.
"Ahem, why don't you let Xiao Chen ask first?"
Qin Yuanshan thought for a moment and said slowly: "Mom, what documents do we lack? You might as well tell me so that Xiao Chen can ask."
Throughout the whole process, Chen Ming didn't say a word.
He carefully peeled the shrimps for Qin Yanyu, picked off the shrimp threads, dipped them in vinegar and put them in Qin Yanyu's bowl without raising his head.
"It's just that the health permit has expired. It's not a big deal. I'll just wait for someone to come over and get it done next week."
Old Mrs. Qin glanced at Chen Ming and said, neither salty nor cold, "I gave property to everyone in the first house, and Yan Yu is in charge of the Qin family in the second house."
"No matter how much you have, you can't handle it, so just look at what's in front of you first."
As soon as the words fell, Liu Xiujuan's face fell on the spot.
Qin Yuanzhou enthusiastically served soup to Mrs. Qin, and then said: "Mom, you are right, the second brother and sister-in-law don't know how to help the family, and they look outside the bowl before they finish eating. How can this be done? "
"Yianyu is working so hard, so you should lend a hand as well."
He looked at Qin Peng as he spoke, "Xiaopeng, you too, don't just let your cousin do things, take the initiative."
"A family should be like a family."
