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

After Lin Xixi left, Wu Ling immediately came over and said, "You can smell the fragrance of tea from afar, and it's quite decent."

I pinched my eyebrows and said nothing.

"What did you give her? I'm very happy to see her."

I told the truth about the secret book of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Wu Ling raised his thumbs up and joked: "Manager Meng has a way to provide help in times of need, but what if she regrets it?"

Lin Xixi was not stupid. With this guide for mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, it was only a matter of time before she got involved with Shen Hualan. How could she not tell the difference between the wife of the CEO of Rongyu and a small project?

"Aren't you happy?"

How could I be unhappy? With Lin Xixi's attitude, there is a high probability that Rongyu will not withdraw our capital.

I just feel unwilling to give out a good card just because I think of it.

Previously I had hoped to make a lot of money with it.

"Go back and wait for the news," I comforted Wu Ling, "Maybe I can have a good sleep tonight."

It was night, and I turned back to the community. As soon as I got downstairs, I saw Zhou Hanzhi walking from the other side.

The man was wearing a two-row navy blue wool suit, which made him tall and straight. Standing under the bright moonlight, he looked like a square gentleman with a cool look.

I paused and took the initiative to start chatting: "Come to see Manager Lin?"

I wanted to test whether the two of them had met before.

Zhou Hanzhi nodded slightly, walked into the corridor side by side with me, and asked after a while: "Did you give me the guide?"

It seems that the two have met before.

I told the truth: "President Zhou has paid the deposit, I have to show some sincerity."

"You're very considerate."

His voice was very flat and could not be heard as bad.

I wasn't modest either, so I smiled and said, "I always keep my word. As time goes by, Mr. Zhou will naturally understand."

I still want to bring the topic to the issue of cooperation.

But Zhou Hanzhi did not answer immediately, but stood quietly aside.

No intention of letting go.

The elevator door opened and we stepped forward and backward. I felt a little discouraged for no reason, and I couldn't help but rub the wristband of my left hand twice.

"Who sent it?"

I looked at Zhou Hanzhi doubtfully, followed his eyes, and realized that he was referring to the wristband.

He added: "I can't put it down, could it be a family heirloom?"

I don't know where he saw that I couldn't put it down, but suddenly I felt a little hot on my wrist, which made me very uncomfortable.

Then I heard Zhou Hanzhi say in a joking tone: "Is the winter so miserable?"

It seems that there was a misunderstanding that the wristband was given by Yan Dong.

I looked down at my toes, pulled my cuffs to cover my wristbands, and didn't answer his words.

But it felt like something was being torn apart in my heart, which made my heart and lungs hurt.

"Manager Meng is very clever, so why bother asking Lin Xixi to intercede with me?"

Hearing the important point, I suppressed the discomfort in my heart, looked up at Zhou Hanzhi, and said, "Mr. Zhou, you and I both know the uniqueness of the project, why should we hurt our harmony over a trivial matter."

"A little thing?" Zhou Hanzhi suddenly increased his tone, and a hint of grievance flashed in the cold Ruifeng eyes.

Did I see it wrong?

"It's my fault that I used the wrong word," I corrected myself, "I mean, once the game is launched, Mr. Zhou's efforts will definitely be rewarded."

After working with Wu Ling for a long time, I also learned how to draw cakes.

Zhou Hanzhi sneered coldly when he heard this, and asked: "Will there be such a day?"

My heart suddenly "thumped", and after a few seconds of pause, I met the man's bottomless black eyes, trying to figure out something.

But unfortunately, nothing was found.

My voice was very soft: "Yes."

The man sneered: "The goal has been achieved."

I clenched my palms nervously and forced myself to calm down. However, when I looked at Zhou Han, I realized that he was talking about the arrival of my floor.

I secretly breathed a sigh of relief and gave a commercial fake smile: "Mr. Zhou, sweet dreams."

Zhou Hanzhi didn't respond, but the anger in his brows was gone.

I leaned against the wall, took a while to regain my composure, and immediately called Wu Ling.

"Are you really not going to divest?" Wu Ling exclaimed, "In the past two days, I finally know what it means to be in the world of ice and fire."

I rubbed my temples and said, "Lin Xixi's words are more useful than us."

Wu Ling sighed on the other end of the phone.

I understand what that means. How can Lin Xixi's love be so easy to accept?

Sure enough, on the third day after the crisis was resolved, Lin Xixi took the initiative to find me.

The little girl looked like she was asking for help. She took a long time to say the topic: "Sister Nan Xu, I have read all about Mrs. Zhou's preferences in the past two days. Do you think I can find an opportunity to practice it?"

It turned out that I was asked to create opportunities for her and Shen Hualan.

I thought about the last time Shen Hualan invited me to have dinner at home, and said, "Well, we'll go to the supermarket later, you buy some gifts, and we'll go to the Mid-Levels Villa together after get off work."

Lin Xixi blinked and said in surprise: "Is it okay, Sister Nan Xu? Isn't it too abrupt?"

Lin Xixi suggested that I call Shen Hualan in advance.

It's a suggestion, but it's better to say that you want me to give it a try.

I thought about it, I always have to repay favors, so I did it.

On the other end of the phone, Shen Hualan was very happy, but when she mentioned Lin Xixi, she immediately changed to another tone: "No, it's an eyesore."

I sent the Buddha to the west and said, "Auntie, mother and son have a strong bond. You have to think about Mr. Zhou. Besides, Manager Lin is thinking about you. This kind of filial piety is very rare."

Only then did Shen Hualan relax.

So after get off work, Lin Xixi and I came to the Mid-level Villa together.

Looking at the antique single-family villa, Lin Xixi was as surprised as I was, and she was dumbfounded.

When Shen Hualan came out, she was still staring at the podocarpus at the door.

I quickly reminded: "Manager Lin."

Lin Xixi became more discerning and took the initiative to say hello: "Auntie, it's our first time meeting you. I've prepared some small gifts, please accept them."

Shen Hualan looked at the Indonesian bird's nest held in Lin Xixi's hand, her expression not too ugly.

But not long after entering the house, she asked a tricky question: "The aunt who cooks at home has something to do and went home temporarily. I'm afraid I won't be able to eat the dinner."

The implication is that no one is cooking tonight.

I took a sip of tea and secretly glanced at Lin Xixi. She immediately understood and volunteered: "Auntie, I usually cook by myself. If you don't mind, I will prepare dinner."

Shen Hualan showed a meaningful expression: "Can you cook?"

Lin Xixi glanced at me, nodded and said, "I can cook a few home-cooked dishes."

Shen Hualan showed her mother-in-law's unique authority and said lazily: "Then there is Miss Laurin."

Lin Xixi entered the kitchen obediently.

Shen Hualan was not idle either and took me to the backyard to see the bougainvillea.

Not just one, but in patches, with luxuriant branches and leaves, even stronger than those on the market.

It's obviously been cared for with care.

And in this bright red, a white bougainvillea looks particularly eye-catching.

It looks very much like the one I kept in the apartment earlier.

In Zhou Hanzhi's eyes, that potted couple's potted plant was a waste of time.

"Did you say that the silver-rimmed pot in position C is white?" Shen Hualan said with a smile: "Who knows, the gardener said that Han Zhi brought it back from outside. Maybe it would be more beautiful to match it like this?"

If you please come back, it probably won’t be the pot I raised.

I remember that the landlord had clearly told me that all the furnishings in the room had been cleared out, including this pot of flowers.

Probably just a coincidence.
