Zhu Yuan tightened her grip on the hem of her clothes and bit her lower lip, "Sister, we are from the same family after all..."

"Do you still remember that we are a family?" Zhu Jin raised his eyebrows.

Zhu Yuan saw some contempt in her eyes, but she was not valued in the team in recent days. She had to help with chores every day without any tasks. She was scolded by the team leader for helping with chores. She was really fed up with this kind of life.

"Zhu Yuan, you don't think that I forgot who tried to push me down the stairs, but ended up falling down myself, right?" Zhu Jin asked back.

This sentence successfully made Zhu Yuan's face turn pale instantly.

Of course she knew what the other person meant.

However, ever since that incident, Zhu Jin never mentioned it again. Zhu Yuan just thought that he didn't care, but she never thought that he still remembered it.

"I won't help you with this matter." Zhu Jin said calmly, "Our team is not short of people at the moment. And aren't you doing well in the team next door?"

"Zhu Jin, we are sisters. You treat me like this, aren't you afraid of hurting Dad's feelings?" Zhu Yuan tried to use her father to make the other party compromise.

After all, what Zhu Jin cared about most in the past was his family’s opinion.

What Zhu Yuan didn’t know was that that was the previous Zhu Jin, not her current self.

Now when Zhu Jin heard that sentence, he felt it was both sad and funny.

Even Zhu Yuan knew how much she cared about her family and kinship, so would the so-called father not know that?

It's not that he doesn't know, he's just used to giving up his own interests to pave the way for his beloved daughter and wife.

Zhu Jin felt that she was hopelessly stupid for climbing into bed with Zhu Chen.

She closed her eyes and suppressed the unhappy emotions that were rising up in her.

"Then go ahead and file a complaint. You let Zhu Chen threaten and intimidate me, and blackmail me into bringing you into the Huo Group." Zhu Jin's words were cold, without any warmth.

Zhu Yuan shuddered all over and felt the cold air descending around her, making her shiver with cold.

"You, if you don't want to help, then forget it. But why are you glaring at me?" Zhu Yuan yelled at the person and left quickly.

Zhu Jin just stared coldly at her back without saying a word.

After a long while, Cheng Zhizhi finally reached out and gently pushed the other person's arm, "Jinjin?"

Zhu Jin retracted his gaze, "Hmm?"

"Are you okay?" Cheng Zhizhi asked hesitantly.

She saw that Zhu Jin seemed to be in a bad mood.

Zhu Jin shook his head, "It's okay, get busy first."

Seeing that she didn't want to talk more, Cheng Zhizhi didn't force her. She just patted her arm twice and said, "Jinjin, if you have any questions, you must tell me. Got it? I will be your most loyal listener."

The serious words dissipated a lot of the gloom in Zhu Jin's heart, and his mood became cheerful.

"Well, I know."

She didn't need to focus on that family anymore.

Ever since Zhu Yuan tried to push me down the stairs last time, Zhu’s family hasn’t contacted me again. Could it be that they really have a change of heart?

Zhu Jin touched his chin thoughtfully, and finally said nothing.

After get off work that afternoon, Zhu Jin took the team members to the restaurant where they had gathered for dinner.

Everyone gets along much better than when Zhu Jin first took over, and occasionally you can hear them joking with each other.

Zhu Jin liked the current atmosphere in the group very much and drank quite a few glasses of wine.

When the party was over, Zhu Jin was reeking of alcohol and felt a little dizzy.

She leaned on Cheng Zhizhi's shoulder.

Cheng Zhizhi flicked her forehead and said, "Jinjin, don't drink so much next time. It's not good for your health."

"Yeah." Zhu Jin responded calmly. She closed her eyes and said, "I was happy today, so I drank a little too much."

Of course she would feel happy that she could be promoted to chief designer in a short period of time, which meant that her talent was seen and recognized by others.

"Did your driver come to pick you up today? Otherwise, should I take you home?" Cheng Zhizhi asked.

Zhu Jin looked up and said, "Yes. It's over there, in the black Bentley. Help me over there."

Cheng Zhizhi's face was full of worry.

Zhu Jin can't walk steadily now.

While waiting for the bus to take her home, is there anyone who can help her get off?

"Jinjin, does your family have a nanny or a maid? Given your current situation, I don't dare let you go home alone." Cheng Zhizhi said.

Zhu Jin narrowed his eyes and said, "No. The cleaning lady will leave after cleaning in the morning. There should be no one at home now."

"How about you come to my house and rest for a night?" Cheng Zhizhi suggested.

Zhu Jin's head felt dizzy as if there was a ball of paste.

"kindness……"

"Okay. Help me over there, and I'll tell the driver to go back first," said Zhu Jin.

When Cheng Zhizhi helped the man to the car, she felt like she was meddling in other people's business.

The back window of the car rolled down, revealing the man's perfect jawline and a profile that was almost flawless.

His narrow eyes glanced at her coldly, and Cheng Zhizhi couldn't help but stand up straight.

The pressure from this glance was too strong.

"Huo. Mr. Huo." Cheng Zhizhi called out stutteringly.

She had been in the Huo Group for a long time, so naturally she had met Huo Jingcheng in person.

"Yes." Huo Jingcheng took back the time and said in a cold tone, "Please help her to the car."

"Okay, okay."

Cheng Zhizhi quickly put Zhu Jin, who was still drunk and confused, into the car.

"Thank you today." Huo Jingcheng said.

Until the black Bentley drove away in front of her, Cheng Zhizhi was still immersed in the surprise that she was thanked by Mr. Huo.

"Drip."

Cheng Chenan rolled down the window of the driver's seat and glanced at his dazed sister, "If you don't get in the car, you can walk back by yourself."

Cheng Zhizhi reacted immediately, got into the car, sat down, and fastened her seat belt.

"Brother, I just saw Mr. Huo." Cheng Zhizhi's voice was full of surprise, "I didn't expect Mr. Huo to be so approachable. He even said thank you to me."

Cheng Chenan didn't even turn his head back and focused on driving. He said in a cold tone, "Don't have any unrealistic fantasies. People thank you because you helped his wife."

"Oh. I know." Cheng Zhizhi rolled her eyes. "You don't think I have any bad thoughts about Mr. Huo, do you? I just think it's amazing that someone like him would thank others."

While waiting for the traffic light, Cheng Chenan's fingers tapped the steering wheel rhythmically. "He is a human, not a god, so he naturally knows how to be grateful. Also, about the matter with the Jian family, are you really going to do that?"

Cheng Zhizhi curled her lips, "You're not going to be a lobbyist for that scumbag, are you? You know better than me what he did in the beginning."

"I'm not trying to be a lobbyist." Cheng Chenan said calmly, "I just hope you can think it through and not regret it. After all, if you do that, you will not only offend the scumbag, but you may also offend the Jian family."

"Don't forget, this invitation was sent by the Jian family."
