She was fired after she refused to be the CEO's dog licker.

In the office, Zhou Hanzhi, who was sitting opposite, said straight to the point: "Isn't it a bit too much?"

His voice was steady, but his condescending attitude was like an invisible hand, holding my heart tightly.

I thought, how anxious was he to come here from Rongyu just to complain about Lin Xixi?

Or be there in person.

I took a breath and said calmly: "Please give me some advice, Mr. Zhou."

Zhou Hanzhi glanced at me and said seriously: "It's just a small mistake. A good team should be a team that allows members to make mistakes. Besides, she hasn't graduated yet."

A small mistake.

I reluctantly twitched the corner of my mouth, and then I realized that the hard work we had been working on for more than a month was just a small mistake in Zhou Hanzhi's eyes.

I suddenly remembered that a long time ago, when I was licking Zhou Hanzhi, I went up to the pole to wash his clothes. Because I didn't pay attention to the ingredients of the sweater, it shrunk in the wash, but he ignored me for a whole week.

Seeing that I didn't say anything, Zhou Hanzhi said again: "I will sign her up for a class. As for you, you should be more patient with her."

I raised my head when I heard the sound, wanting to say something, but it felt like there was glue in my throat and I couldn't say anything.

A person who has been licking him for six years is now being questioned about his lack of patience.

"has a problem?"

I suppressed the discomfort in my heart and said, neither salty nor indifferently: "Mr. Zhou is thoughtful and considerate, I feel inferior to him."

"It doesn't look like it," his black eyes fell on my face motionlessly, and Zhou Hanzhi asked, "Is Manager Meng not satisfied with how I handled it?"

He is like a judge on the stage. He has obviously sentenced us, but inexplicably asks the prisoner whether he is satisfied or not.

I was thinking about the investment money that I had finally obtained, and when I met Zhou Hanzhi's gaze, I said politely and distantly, "Very good."

Zhou Hanzhi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and after sneering, he immediately stood up and left.

I walked him to the elevator mechanically.

As soon as the elevator door closed, I hurriedly held on to the wall and gasped for breath. It felt like I had eaten coptis, and there was a layer of bitterness in my mouth.

After a while, a message from Lin Xixi popped up on the phone: "Senior, I will work hard and I will not disappoint you and Senior Hanzhi."

I close the dialog box and continue pulling code.

The next day, Lin Xixi studied hard as she said, and even worked overtime for the first time.

I sighed in my heart about the greatness of love.

At nine o'clock in the evening, my stomach growled at an inappropriate time. I picked up the bucket of noodles on the table, got up and went to the tea room.

When the noodles in the bucket were soaked, there was sudden movement at the door. I looked up and thought I was dazzled.

Zhou Hanzhi stood at the door.

He was holding an exquisite lunch box in his hand.

The logo of Shiweiju is printed on it.

It was in sharp contrast to the instant noodles in my hand.

Our eyes met, and I heard him ask: "Where is Lin Xixi?"

Lin Xixi came out of the office after hearing the sound, looked at Zhou Hanzhi happily, and said, "Senior, I told you not to come over. Will it delay your work?"

The corners of Zhou Hanzhi's mouth curled up slightly, and he said warmly: "You are hungry, let's eat something first."

"After you said that, I'm really hungry."

After Lin Xixi finished speaking, she took Zhou Hanzhi into the office, took two steps, and then turned to look at me.

My eyes fell on the barrel in my hand.

"Senior, do you want to eat this unhealthy thing together?"

She meant well, but my heart still couldn't help but twitch.

The instant noodles in my hand suddenly didn't smell that good.

I don't know where the rebelliousness came from, but I blurted out: "It's okay, my stomach is not that valuable."

Hearing this, Lin Xixi's smile froze at the corner of her mouth, her eyelashes drooped like a wounded kitten, and she whispered: "Senior, I don't mean anything else."

Zhou Hanzhi, who was beside her, raised his eyebrows when he saw this and said seriously: "Manager Meng, Xixi also has good intentions."

kindness.

Also, the beloved princess rewarded the beggar with a candy in front of the prince. In the eyes of the prince, that was a great act of kindness.

Who cares about a beggar's self-esteem?

I suddenly realized that my structure was a bit inadequate.

After all, building a good relationship with investors is part of the job.

So I picked up the braised beef noodles in my hand and said, "I don't know how to eat lately, so I just think about this bite."

Lin Xixi showed an expression of sudden realization: "Yes, the food at Shiweiju is indeed a bit bland."

Even if the taste doesn't match, that's fair to say.

Things have changed, but I had a very unpleasant taste of this bucket of noodles.

After a while, I noticed something was wrong in my stomach.

It's a dull pain.

I didn't take it seriously at first, but after a while, cramping pain attacked my nerves from all directions, and the pain made me break out in a cold sweat.

I took out the stomach medicine, held my stomach and entered the tea room.

It hurts so much.

It hurt so much that I couldn't even hold the cup steady.

I heard a crisp "crash" sound, and the glass in my hand suddenly fell out of my hand and fell to the ground hard.

Fragmented.

I endured the labor pain, and as soon as I moved a step, I felt my feet go weak, and I fell down uncontrollably.

Thinking of the broken glass on the ground, I closed my eyes in panic.

The expected pain did not come.

His waist seemed to be hugged tightly by a strong arm, and the tip of his nose was filled with the sharp and refreshing scent of soap. In an instant, hot memories from long ago were brought up.

This hug is so real.

The truth is somewhat incredible.

I opened my eyes in confusion, raised my eyes slightly, and met Zhou Hanzhi's obsidian eyes.

Under the incandescent light above his head, the man's black eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of hazy fine sand, filled with concern and tenderness.

He said warmly: "Can you still stand?"

Only then did I suddenly realize that I was actually lying in Zhou Hanzhi's arms.

Just as he was about to speak, Lin Xixi's sweet voice suddenly interrupted: "Senior, what are you...doing?"

I endured the discomfort and broke away from Zhou Hanzhi's arms, and said politely, "Thank you, Mr. Zhou."

Zhou Hanzhi looked at Lin Xixi and said calmly: "Manager Meng is feeling unwell and couldn't stand firm just now."

He was explaining to her.

Lin Xixi glanced at me suspiciously and said, "Then let's take senior sister to the hospital."

Her voice was soft, obviously just polite.

I propped my arms on the bar, suppressing the pain in my stomach, and wisely made an excuse for myself: "It's my period, just take some medicine, it won't be a problem."

Lin Xixi was obviously relieved, but Zhou Hanzhi suddenly said: "I can't even stand still, so I'd better go to the hospital for a check-up."

The attitude is quite firm.

As if afraid that something would happen to me.

Also very abnormal.

Lin Xixi also noticed this, bit her lip, looked at Zhou Hanzhi timidly, and said, "Senior, you are very thoughtful."

Zhou Hanzhi's expression froze, he glanced at me, walked towards Lin Xixi in two steps, and pulled her out of the tea room.

Probably to coax the little girl.

I took the opportunity to swallow the stomach medicine, and after a while, I left the tea room.

As soon as I took two steps, Zhou Hanzhi's deep voice came into my ears: "She is the person in charge of this project after all. If there is something wrong with her health, wouldn't it delay your graduation defense next year?"

It was like I was suddenly doused with cold water, from head to toe.

Only then did I understand that the reason why Zhou Han kindly helped me was because he was worried that I, the person in charge, would affect Lin Xixi's graduation defense.
