Bait

Shen Zhen replied in a low voice, "No."

"It's okay to meet up." He stared at her closely, "I admit that I lost control and exceeded my limits, and I don't want you to call me big brother. I will restrain myself."

She buried her head even lower, her frozen red nose was very delicate.

Chen Yuan put his coat on her body and closed it tightly. His temperature was very warm, like a boiling stove, burning hot air, "Is it still cold?"

Shen Zhen moved away without a trace, "It's not cold."

He noticed her alienation and escape, "Do you hate me?"

She looked at her feet without making a sound, but didn't answer.

Chen Yuan circled her with his arms bent, blocking the wind around her, "I won't touch you."

The wind got stronger and stronger, and it blew past his thin shirt, causing a bulge on his back. Shen Zhen tore off his coat and stuffed it into his arms, "You wear it yourself."

"I'm a man." Chen Yuan wrapped her up again, "It doesn't matter if you catch the cold."

She backs away.

He paused, "Go upstairs and wait."

Chen Chongzhou left the Guobin Peninsula before him. Obviously, the original destination was not here. Chen Yuan swiped the access control card, "I have a contract to sign, and I will accompany you up there."

With his tough attitude, Shen Zhen understood that he would never leave her alone.Those two times when we were in the car, we almost caught fire. Being in the company is better than being alone in a car, and we are calm with each other.

While waiting for the elevator, Shen Zhen asked him, "Did you just get off work too?"

"Go back to the old house." Chen Yuan stood in front of him, his broad and heroic body covering most of the lights.

"Are you here on business?"

Chen Yuan discovered that the employees of the sales department were online collectively in the work group in the evening, and they drove here by accident.

He changed the subject, looked at his watch, "Are you sure to pick you up?"

Shen Zhen hesitated for a second, Chen Chongzhou's temperament was hard to guess, "Not sure."

Chen Yuan glanced at her and didn't ask any more questions.

"Chen Yuan." She called his name, "When will you get married?"

He put his hands in his trouser pockets and said nothing.

"I've prepared a wedding gift, and it's estimated to be completed by the end of the month. Will it be in time?"

Chen Yuan entered the elevator and pressed 5.

"What congratulatory gift?"

Shen Zhen still followed behind him, "Cross stitch, a pair of mandarin ducks."

"Can you embroider?"

Her ears turned red, "Mandarin ducks are a bit like big geese."

Chen Yuan laughed, "It's okay, just give it to me when you're done."

"What month is your wedding?"

He pursed his lips for a long time, "What if I don't get married."

Shen Zhen was stunned, "No knot?"

After uncovering the shadow projected on the door wall, Chen Yuan looked at her, "Yes."

"Aren't you already engaged?"

"Two different things." He kept looking at her, "Then why do you still avoid me?"

Shen Zhen didn't say a word.

On the 5th floor, Chen Yuan turned on the air conditioner, found An Qiao's suit from the secretary department, and gave it to Shen Zhen, "Sit here and wait for me."

He went straight to the city manager's office at the end of this floor, pushed the door open, "Manager Chang."

Chang Huan was sorting out the project proposal, turned his head, and immediately put aside the documents in his hand, "Mr. Chen."

"Working overtime recently?"

"In the peak season of October, three commercial buildings under Fucheng opened for sale, and the marketing department is really short of manpower."

Chen Yuan asked, "Which one is Shen Zhen in charge of?"

Chang Huan was taken aback, "Shen Zhu..."

There were rumors in the company that Shen Zhen was a woman raised by the boss, she was very doted on, and the rumors spread vividly, but Chang Heng didn't believe it.

Because I saw it with my own eyes, Shen Zhen got off Chen Er's co-pilot, and flirted intimately through the car door.

But when did Chen Yuan show kindness and stand up for an irrelevant female employee? He is a capitalist who does great things in the mall, has a hard heart, and can squeeze his subordinates.

Clearly, the relationship is unusual.

Chang Huan said, "Shen Zhu is currently in charge of sales and taking stock of the advantages and disadvantages of the apartment types."

Chen Yuan was silent for a moment, "Deploy people from other departments to share her work, without having to work overtime."

"I understand." Chang Huan teased him politely, "It's rare for Mr. Chen to feel sorry for her. She seems to have been divorced?"

He said lightly.

"Chen Dong asked me if you have any daily contact with the assistant surnamed Shen."

Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes, Chang Huan continued, "I answered no."

"Don't tell her that canceling overtime is what I mean." Chen Yuan put down this sentence and turned around.

Over there, Chen Chongzhou held Shen Zhen's hand, exhaled, and rubbed it, "Where did you go, it's so cold."

"At the door." Shen Zhen got angry and withdrew his hand, "Didn't you pick me up at 6 o'clock, it's already 9 o'clock."

He unbuttoned his coat and put his arms around her, "Stupid, wait for me outside?"

She sniffed aggrievedly, "I thought you'd be here soon, why didn't you reply to the text message?"

Chen Chongzhou covered her face with his palms, warming her up, "Add another operation temporarily."

"There are no doctors in your department?"

He smirked, "The patient's family member is a little girl, and I was named as the surgeon."

Shen Zhen stared at him, "Is it pretty?"

Chen Chongzhou was thoughtful, with a look of aftertaste, "Beautiful."

"Compare it to me."

"Not at the same level."

She softened slightly, "Not as pretty as me, but you are quite enthusiastic."

"You misunderstood." Chen Chongzhou put his lips against her cheek, and kissed her as if he hadn't said anything, "It's your poor class."

Shen Zhen was about to break free immediately, he leaned over slightly, and pressed against the corner of her mouth, with a very strong taste of bitter coffee, "I'm teasing you, are you really annoyed?"

He didn't really kiss her, he just hooked her and fondled her, like ambiguous icing, the slower it melted, the more sultry, "Have you had dinner yet?"

"I didn't eat."

Chen Chongzhou sniffed at her neck, which was hot and moist, "The strength of kicking me was not small, why was it so weak in those few nights."

This man has always been cold and ruthless, unreasonable, seldom talkative, doesn't like to laugh, and has an aura of not being close to strangers and not disturbing acquaintances.

It's not used to seducing women suddenly, making them itchy and sullen.

Chen Yuan came out from Chang Huan's place and went to the general manager's office to get the medicine box in the drawer, which was for her.

That day, I overheard her tell An Qiao that her dysmenorrhea was severe. Although he avoided it on the spot, he specially invited the Maternal and Children's Hospital to prepare a blood-tonifying ointment. He knew that she was greedy for sweets and feared bitterness, so he specially made it sweet, and planned to put it on her quietly. Desk, but the project of the International Club has not been going well recently, so he kept on managing the wine bureau and didn't pay attention to it for a while.

Returning to the office hall, the scene in the corridor made him stop suddenly.

Chen Chongzhou was facing his position, so it was easy to be exposed. He quickly dodged and hid with his back against a wall, not wanting her to panic and embarrass him.

Chen Yuan looked at the floor-to-ceiling glass on the opposite side. He had lived for 35 years and had never been so absurd and destitute.

"Where are you going back?"

"my home."

"I'll come back too?"

Shen Zhen glanced at him, "How many times have you visited the door, have you brought any gifts?"

Chen Chongzhou's lips were still attached to her earlobe, "There are in the trunk."

She pushed and pulled away from his chest, "And then."

"Move me there."

She ran into the elevator and pressed the door to close.

Chen Chongzhou moved his foot and squeezed in.

The man behind the wall squeezed the medicine box tightly, the veins on the back of his hands were faintly bulging and turning white.

The incandescent lamp was shaking on the roof, and the night was too deep, and a hole was opened silently.

Chen Chongzhou drove across the North-South Bridge, and suddenly asked, "Do you know how to smoke?"

Shen Zhen hardly thought about it, "No way.

He put his arm on the window frame, glanced at her from the corner of his eye, "Your clothes smell of smoke."

She froze.

"Ruanzhong, Chen Yuan usually smokes this." His tone was calm, and he tapped the steering wheel, "He's looking for you."

Shen Zhen grabbed the car mat, "Meet by chance."

Chen Chongzhou stared at her, with light dark circles under her eyes, her skin was extremely fair, very obvious, playful and soft.

This time, don't blame her, it's him who broke the appointment halfway.

He did go to the hospital. Ni Ying will have surgery tomorrow. She has no relatives, so he signed the consent form on her behalf.

This operation was urgently adjusted, and the director had a very full schedule. Cancer patients from other cities and even other provinces all asked him to be the chief surgeon. It was not easy to find time in the morning to perform it for Ni Ying.

It happened so suddenly that Chen Chongzhou rushed over.

"What to eat."

"Sweet."

He frowned, "Eat less sugar."

Shen Zhen obediently agreed, "I remember."

Chen Chongzhou turned around and drove towards the Food City, "What do you want to eat?"

"7 points sweet."

***

Chen Yuan returned to Nanjiang Road in the early morning and smoked in the car.

Chen Mansion is an independent building on the west bank of the lake, quiet and lonely, like him at this moment, very lonely.

Countless images flooded into his mind, he closed his eyes and meditated, with a cigarette between his fingers, he got out of the car.

The room was dark, only the shoe cabinet in the entrance was lit. Chen Yuan changed his shoes, and when he passed by the living room, the dining room inside instantly lit up.

He stopped.

There was a cake in front of Wan Xixi, the candles were extinguished, and An Qiao stood by the table, shaking his head at him.

Chen Yuan has always been an extremely calm man, but at this moment, there was no disturbance, "You haven't slept yet."

"Where have you been?"

He loosened his collar, "Entertainment."

"Where."

"Beautiful Bay."

She sneered, "I contacted the manager of Beautiful Bay, checked in the city last week, rectified and closed down."

"Mr. Chen." An Qiao rounded up the situation cautiously, "You are going to Shenghe to settle business..."

Wan Xixi interrupted, "Secretary An's adaptability is really excellent, no wonder Mr. Chen thinks highly of you."

She pierced it thoroughly, and the atmosphere became more and more heavy.

Chen Yuan simply stopped hiding it, "I went to see her."

Wan Xixi clenched her fists, "I watched that scene in the car, do you know how much pain I have? My fiancé, he ignored my birthday and even lied to me. Chen Yuan, even if you act, you act realistically A little, a little hypocrisy, can't you?" With a sweep of her arm, the cake hit the ground and shattered, "I only want one month, that's all."

With his back turned to her, he took a long puff of cigarette, as if he had weighed it over and over again, and became extremely calm, "Xixi, let's stop."

Wan Xixi was caught off guard, "Are you going to stop now?"

Chen Yuan said in a low voice, "Yes."

"One month, you also break?"

"It didn't take long." He pinched his cigarette and rubbed the space between his brows. "Now, if you are tired, I am tired too."

"Chen Yuan——" Wan Xixi barely stood still. He turned his head and looked at each other. Her eyes were dim with tears. "The charity dinner on Saturday is my father's group investment. You have to accompany me to attend no matter what."

She held him firmly, "All the directors are here, you just help me protect Wanjia's face."

After a long while, Chen Yuan took a deep breath, "Sunday break."

Wan Xixi lowered her hand powerlessly.

The next day, Chen Yuan went to Huayan Technology.

After Wan Youliang finished the meeting, he walked out of the conference hall. Chen Yuan greeted him, "Uncle."

He was surprised, "Why are you here?"

Chen Yuan was thoughtful and gentle, "I prepared some supplements for my uncle to try."

Wan Youliang patted him on the shoulder, "Family, you don't have to be polite."

The accompanying subordinates looked at Chen Yuan, "Wan Dong, your son-in-law?"

Wan Youliang was very happy. Having such an outstanding son-in-law is not only decent, but also to save face for the Wan family. He took the initiative to introduce, "Chen Zheng's eldest son, Chen Yuan. You are out of town. You were not invited to the engagement banquet. I'm so sorry."

"I have long heard that the two sons of the Chen family are handsome and well-known in the province. The rumors are true."

Chen Yuan shook hands with the other party, "Your praise."

After a brief exchange of greetings, Wan Youliang took him into the office, "Xixi said, she lives with you, and you take care of her very well. You treat her kindly, and I feel at ease."

Chen Yuan's face was a little condensed, quite surprised, "Did she say that?"

Wan Youliang handed him the teacup, and said in a natural tone, "Isn't it? I can trust your character."

Chen Yuan took it and put it down instead of drinking, "Xixi is a good woman."

Wan Youliang laughed, "No matter how good a woman is, you are the only one who can bear the blessings. Xixi has a deep affection for you. Over the years, countless colleagues have asked me to marry her. She has never thought of getting married. After a few paragraphs, they broke up without any results. Xixi is very clear-headed and knows what kind of man will be her husband in the end."

Chen Yuan didn't make a sound, rubbed the cup with his fingers, and the tea leaves floated on the water.

Wan Youliang stared at him, "You have something to do when you go to Huayan."

"I found out the land of Xipo Mountain, who cut it off."

Wan Youliang looked serious, "Who?"

"It was a group of competitors who prevented Huayan from taking this land."

Chen Yuan didn't reveal the truth, mainly because he found Zheng Ye.

The Zheng family is very proud and crazy in the mall, and Zheng Ye is the only son, so there is no need to confront.

Furthermore, Zheng Ye's interception of Hu Wanyouliang was probably ordered by Chen Chongzhou. After all, the Zheng and Wan families have never had any feuds, and the Zheng family has no shortage of land. Land, he can't afford to get into this trouble.

Unless Chen Chongzhou asked him to do it.

The Chen family devoured the meat of the Wan family, and it was not pleasant to hear the rumors.

Chen Yuan could only suppress it.

"Uncle, I will try my best to get back this land for you. If I succeed, it will be regarded as my compensation."

Wan Youliang was puzzled, "Chen Yuan, you seem to have something in your words."

He put on his suit and got up, "Since Xixi didn't mention it, I can't do it for you, why don't you ask her."

Chen Yuan left Huayan headquarters and returned to Shenghe.

It happened to be a lunch break, and when I met Shen Zhen in the aisle of the cafeteria, she felt a little uncomfortable and turned her face away.

The colleague said hello, "Mr. Chen."

Chen Yuan nodded, and his eyes glanced at her who was the farthest away. Shen Zhen was very shy, his eyes were dim, and he moved away.

The colleagues behind stopped him, "Mr. Chen, I heard that you will be in Shenghe for this year's annual meeting. Are you going to Fucheng?"

"Not sure."

"Manager Chang praised you for your excellent Cantonese songs, standard subwoofer, please sing one."

Chen Yuan smiled, still saying, "Not sure."

Shen Zhen was by the side, not participating.

"Isn't Assistant Shen good at dancing?" The colleague tiptoed and tugged at her, "Partner with Mr. Chen."

Chen Yuan straightened his tie and looked elsewhere.

Shen Zhen pushed her hand away, "How could I?"

"Hey - you are lying! You are lazy to sleep in the morning, your feet are numb, and you have been tap dancing for half a day."

There was laughter all around, Shen Zhen blushed with embarrassment, and went to gag her colleague, but someone's leg fell there and tripped her, she staggered and fell forward.

Chen Yuan subconsciously stretched out his hand, grabbed her waist, and protected her.

The sweet floral and fruity fragrance, and the warm and strong woody male fragrance collide with each other.
