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

After lunch, Lin Xixi suggested going back to the hotel, but Song Qing suggested that Zhou Hanzhi take her to the commercial street.

Zhou Hanzhi had no objection, and after telling Zeng Zhi to go back to the hotel to handle the work, he led Lin Xixi straight to the commercial street.

Song Qing and Lin Xixi were old friends. The two of them were talking and laughing, but I, the accompanying person, seemed unusually awkward.

It doesn’t matter whether I leave or not.

After shopping for a while, Lin Xixi stopped in front of a time-honored tea shop.

"Hanzhi, can I go in and take a look?" she asked cautiously.

"Want to buy tea?" Zhou Hanzhi saw through the little girl's thoughts and said, "Are you ready for my uncle and aunt?"

"No," Lin Xixi lowered her voice and explained, "Auntie, doesn't she like to drink tea? I think it's a rare occasion for me to come to southern Anhui. The Lu'an Guapian here is famous throughout the country, so I want to bring some to her."

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhou Hanzhi and Song Qing were both slightly startled.

Lin Xixi caught the strange look on the man's face and asked tentatively: "Isn't it appropriate?"

"No."

Song Qing immediately answered: "Mr. Zhou, look, Xixi is really good. She went through all the trouble to come to southern Anhui. Not only did she go to the scenic spots, but she was thinking about her future mother-in-law."

"Sister Song Qing," the little girl said with an embarrassed look on her face, "Don't make fun of me. I just want to thank auntie very much and want to fulfill my responsibilities as a junior. Just like this trip to southern Anhui, without auntie's encouragement, I would not be able to do anything. You won’t come here without saying hello.”

Auntie’s encouragement.

So Shen Hualan also knew about Lin Xixi coming to Wannan?

Zhou Hanzhi had the same doubts as me: "Does she know you're coming?"

"Yes, auntie said that the climate in the mountains is different from that in Beijing and Hong Kong. She was worried that you couldn't take care of yourself, so she told me a few words." Lin Xixi explained patiently, and then changed the subject: "Hanzhi, don't you Will you blame me for being nosy?"

When she asked this question, she raised her eyes and looked at Zhou Hanzhi, her eyes full of panic.

"No, how could it be?" Zhou Hanzhi responded lightly and said, "Go and choose tea cakes."

Lin Xixi breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay."

While they were talking, the two of them entered the tea shop side by side. Song Qing followed behind. Seeing me standing motionless, she smiled and said, "Is there something wrong with Manager Meng? Why doesn't your face look good?"

I calmed down, and suddenly the box of family planning supplies flashed through my mind, but I didn't answer.

So, does that count as Shen Hualan’s instruction?

Lin Xixi spent more than an hour shopping for tea cakes, and finally selected the one worth five figures.

She was also startled when she heard the shopping guide announce the price. After barely maintaining her composure, she said carefully: "Auntie will probably like it."

The mouth is quite eloquent.

But this tea cake cost her one or two months' salary.

It seemed that she had tried her best to please Shen Hualan.

I understand Lin Xixi's financial situation, and so does Zhou Hanzhi. The moment the girl took out her bank card, he stopped her: "Wrap it together with the other two pieces."

He said this to the shopping guide.

Lin Xixi was stunned when she heard the sound and asked, "Hanzhi, what are you doing?"

"Isn't uncle also fond of drinking tea?" Zhou Hanzhi looked calm and said softly: "I've come here, but I can't go back empty-handed."

"But it's too expensive," Lin Xixi hurriedly refused, "Hanzhi, I can't have it."

The corners of Zhou Hanzhi's lips raised slightly, and he said warmly: "What's mine is yours, why do you think it's so innocent?"

Song Qing was also helping: "Yes, Xixi, Mr. Zhou said so. After all, we are a family sooner or later, isn't what's his yours?"

The three tea cakes add up to nearly 40,000 yuan.

Zhou Hanzhi paid the bill directly with a wave of his hand.

In his words, it is a gift to his father-in-law.

My stomach suddenly turned, and I retched, making an excuse to leave the sales area.

After walking a few steps, I leaned over and after vomiting several times, I vomited some sour water.

I didn't have much appetite for lunch and didn't eat many chopsticks in total.

At this moment, I felt a little hungry for no reason.

"Sister?" A clear voice suddenly whispered in my ears, "When did you go down the mountain?"

I raised my head and saw Yuan Tianye, dressed in sportswear, standing two steps away, looking at me in disbelief.

"This morning," I pretended to be calm, "Why are you here?"

"In the morning?" Yuan Tianye looked at me directly and said, "Your foot injury has not healed yet, how can you go down the mountain? If you are not my sister, why are you so worried about me?"

Of course I would not tell him that I was looking for clues about Qiao Yaoke, let alone my plan to make a deal with Zhou Hanzhi. I could only write lightly: "After all, I am here to work."

"You can't do this," Yuan Tianye took out his mobile phone and said, "I'll tell Han Shuo first and I'll take you back to the hotel later."

"No," I stopped hastily, "I haven't finished my work yet, don't worry, it's okay."

Yuan Tianye couldn't resist me, and finally agreed not to escort me back to the hotel.

"Anyway, you have to get off work on time before dark," he said in a harsh tone, "otherwise I will come here to arrest you."

A bit difficult to deal with.

But it makes sense.

After all, I wanted to get back to the hotel before dark.

After exchanging a few words with Yuan Tianye, I immediately turned back. Unexpectedly, I saw Zhou Hanzhi standing under the corridor just a few steps away.

The man was twirling a cigarette between his fingertips, and behind the smoke were those calm black eyes.

Staring at me.

I walked over expressionlessly, and as I got closer, I heard him say, "Manager Meng is really busy, he can do both work and flirting."

flirt?

I frowned slightly and said calmly: "To each other."

He insisted on saying something about Yuan Tianye and me. There was no point in arguing. It was better to just follow his words.

But as soon as I finished speaking, a dark cloud suddenly appeared on the man's sharp features: "Meng Nanxu, am I spoiling you too much?"

There’s this line again.

I couldn't help but sneer: "Yes, Mr. Zhou didn't forget to ask me to be his follower when he went shopping with his girlfriend. I'm really lucky."

Zhou Hanzhi glanced at me and sneered: "Why, do you mind?"

mind.

Who am I to mind?

I still have this bit of self-knowledge.

The next second, I heard Zhou Hanzhi say again, "You are not qualified now."

I have long recognized the fact, but when I heard Zhou Hanzhi mention it again, my heart couldn't help but clench into a ball.

I curled my fingers and said with a smile: "Manager Lin must have been waiting for a long time. Mr. Zhou, please don't worry the beautiful lady."

After I said this, I walked away, but because I walked in such a hurry, I didn't realize that there were steps at my feet.

My body suddenly lost balance. Suddenly, my waist tightened, and I was pulled into Zhou Hanzhi's arms.

It was too sudden and too unexpected.

Just when my face was full of astonishment, I heard a "click" sound, and there was a travel photographer standing directly in front of me.

"I'm sorry, you two," he explained with a smile, "I just passed by here and happened to see the two of you looking so inseparable. I couldn't help myself, so I captured this moment."

After he finished speaking, he walked towards us and politely handed the SLR to us: "You must have just been dating for a while, the love in your eyes almost spilled out of the camera lens."

Hearing this, I was startled. When I looked at Zhou Han again, I found that his face was also somewhat unnatural.

Just when both of us felt a little embarrassed, Lin Xixi's soft voice suddenly broke in: "Hanzhi, Sister Nanxu, what are you doing?"

I followed the sound and saw Lin Xixi and Song Qing standing two steps away.

I immediately distanced myself from Zhou Hanzhi, but it was already too late.

The situation when Zhou Hanzhi held me tightly in his arms just now must not be hidden from the two of them.

Song Qing made a preemptive strike: "Where did you come from for a travel shoot? Do you know how to look at people? What kind of couple? My real girlfriend is here."

The travel photographer suddenly looked confused. He looked at me, then at Zhou Hanzhi, and hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's just my eyesight. I'll delete it immediately."

The travel photography was very neat, probably because I was afraid of taking responsibility.

Lin Xixi, who was standing not far away, had her head drooped, looking like she was about to cry without tears.

When Zhou Hanzhi saw this, he immediately walked over and explained, "Manager Meng just stepped on the wrong foot."

He was telling the truth, and his tone was a little urgent.

Probably because she was afraid that Lin Xixi would misunderstand.

Lin Xixi didn't answer, but her little face looked more aggrieved than before, which made me feel quite helpless.

At this time, Song Qing interjected again: "Don't talk about it, Manager Meng's feet are quite intelligent. When they should hurt and when they will hurt, it's as if they have been set. It's quite convincing."

Listening to this sarcasm, my blood surged up for a moment, and I replied: "Thank you, Mr. Song. The incident did happen suddenly, but after Mr. Song reminded me, I suddenly felt that my feet are not suitable for following everyone to continue shopping. This way , I will go back to the hotel first, if the two bosses have any instructions, you can call me."

I turned around and left after saying this.

To be honest, I have really reached the limit of my tolerance.

I have a good temper, but I am not a soft persimmon.

But just when I was about to leave gracefully, my vision suddenly went dark and I lost consciousness.

When I woke up again, I was already lying in a ward filled with the smell of disinfectant.

I still have an IV drip on my hand.

Only then did I realize that I had ended up in the hospital for no reason.

Just as I was about to get up, Lin Xixi's sweet voice suddenly sounded in my ears: "Hanzhi, you'd better go back. Manager Meng is a girl after all, so it's more appropriate for me to take care of him."

Look, how considerate.

"It's okay, I'd better stay."

The low, hoarse voice sounded a little weak.

It's Zhou Hanzhi.

The conversation suddenly paused for two seconds, and the little girl's soft voice whispered in my ear: "Hanzhi, are you worried that I can't take care of Sister Nanxu? To be honest, when I heard the travel photos saying that you are a couple, I'm a little jealous, but no matter how petty I am, I won't take advantage of Sister Nanxu's body to make her angry."

It seems that I am lucky and have a good colleague.

After a while, I heard Zhou Hanzhi say, "What are you thinking about? It's a long night and the dew is heavy. I'm just worried that your body won't be able to bear it."

Oh, it turns out that even if I fainted on the road, what Zhou Hanzhi was most worried about was that I would tire out the tenderness of his palms.
