On Saturday afternoon, the scorching sun was burning itself as it hurried to finish overtime work.

It gradually fell from the horizon after working hard, and the moon rose on the other side of the sky to go to work at night. They cooperated perfectly and tacitly.

In the Honglan Group Company owned by Li Chuyue's father Li Hongye, employees also left work one after another as the sun rose, finishing this week's work diligently.

In the chairman's office on the top floor of Honglan Group, Zheng Yanan hurriedly followed Li Hongye in, stood in front of the desk and asked Li Hongye anxiously:

"Honey, why didn't you agree to let me follow up on that important project during the meeting just now?"

Li Hongye lowered his head to sort out the documents and answered in a steady voice:

"Before, you always said that I was too busy with company matters and that I hadn't rested or traveled for a long time. Then you advised me to let go of company matters.

I think what you said is very true. I am not getting any younger, but I am always busy with work and I have not spent more time with my family or resting myself.

Especially when I see you worrying and working hard to help me share the pressure, I feel really sorry and distressed.

So I think you and I should reduce the work at hand and leave more opportunities for young and capable people in the company to do. "

Before hearing the first half of Li Hongye's words, Zheng Yanan was afraid that Li Hongye might have discovered something and deliberately prevented her from taking over the company's core projects.

When she was halfway through listening, the uneasy speculation in her heart was put aside and she even felt a little secretly happy.

But after Zheng Yanan heard the last part, panic surged in her heart. She wondered if she had heard it wrongly, frowned and asked carefully:

"You mean to ask me to assign the work I have now to my subordinates?"

At this time, Li Hongye packed up the documents, picked up his briefcase, walked to Zheng Yanan, took Zheng Yanan's arm and walked out of the office. When he entered the elevator, he said in a gentle tone:

“I didn’t ask you to give it all away, and I will try to reduce the workload.

We have to believe that young people can do a good job, and after you hand over the work, we will do as you said before and spend more time with each other."

Zheng Yanan looked as if she had eaten shit, with a half-smile on her face. She wanted to say something but was interrupted by Li Hongye.

"Okay, we're about to get out of the elevator, so let's not talk too much.

Today is Saturday, Chuchu and Shiqi should be waiting for us at home for dinner, let's go home quickly."

Zheng Yanan was hesitant to talk about it and decided not to talk about it for the time being. She planned to go home and find other ways to change Li Hongye's mind which was not favorable to her.

After the two got out of the elevator, they were picked up by the driver as usual and drove towards home.

……

At home in the Linyu villa area, Li Chuyue and Zheng Shiqi, who came home to rest during the holiday, stayed in their own rooms.

Zheng Shiqi in the room was standing in front of the mirror, trying on several newly bought skirts.

At the same time, she was talking on the phone with Wu Ziyao, expressing her longing and love for him, and was completely immersed in the pink bubble of love.

In another room, Li Chuyue was sitting at the desk, looking carefully at the information in the laptop.

These materials are the company information that her father Li Hongye sent to her these days, so that she can understand the situation of his own company in advance.

It turned out that Li Hongye had been secretly observing Zheng Yanan carefully since he heard the nightmare Li Chuyue told in the study.

He found that there was indeed something wrong with the way Zheng Yanan handled the company's affairs.

So just in case, he secretly investigated Zheng Yanan's operations in the company in recent years. Unexpectedly, he found a clue during the investigation.

Li Hongye looked at the information he had collected and saw how Zheng Yanan was working hard to get closer to the core of the company step by step.

Although Zheng Yanan did not do anything detrimental to the company, it is not difficult to see that her motives are impure, and there is no guarantee that she will not do anything detrimental to the company in the future.

In fact, Li Hongye still found it a little hard to believe. After all, it has been almost 5 years since he and Zheng Yanan met and got married.

Although he couldn't love Zheng Yanan as much as he loved his deceased wife, she knew and accepted it at the beginning, but he also promised that he would try hard to love her in the future. He did have feelings for Zheng Yanan during these five years.

He was very good to Zheng Yanan. Even when Zheng Yanan found out during a physical examination that she could no longer get pregnant, he was understanding and treated Zheng Shiqi as if she were his own daughter, spending all the money and care she needed.

Li Hongye couldn't figure out what made Zheng Yanan change, but in the end he had no choice but to accept it.

He thought again of the nightmare his daughter had told him, and he decided to do something to deal with the possible dangers that might occur later.

First, he thought of naturally keeping Zheng Yanan away from the core of the company;

Secondly, it is to find out who are Zheng Yanan's confidants or people she has planted in the company;

Finally, it is necessary to let Chuchu understand and take charge of the company in advance, so as not to give others the opportunity to swallow up the company.

……

The dazzling sun sets, and dark clouds seem to be pressing down. The gloomy sky exudes a dull atmosphere, and the whole world is filled with damp depression.

After Li Hongye and Zheng Yanan returned home, the nanny Aunt He placed the prepared hot dishes on the dining table, and then went upstairs as usual to call Li Chuyue and Zheng Shiqi downstairs to eat.

Li Chuyue quickly closed the data in the computer, went downstairs to wash her hands, sat at the dining table and said to Li Hongye:

"Dad, thank you for your hard work. I studied hard today."

Li Hongye came out of the study room with a tired look on his face after putting away his briefcase. Hearing his daughter's caring words, he immediately felt that everything was worth it and smiled with relief:

"It's not hard. Dad is very happy if you can study hard. Thank you for your consideration, baby."

Zheng Shiqi was reluctant to hang up the call with Wu Ziyao, so she walked downstairs slowly.

When she heard the conversation between Li Chuyue and her daughter, she couldn't help rolling her eyes, thinking that Li Chuyue was a scheming girl who only knew how to please her father.

After Zheng Shiqi sat down, she acted well-behaved and said to Li Hongye with a smile:

"Dad, you've worked hard. When I study hard, I will help you with the company's work and stop you from working so hard.

And today I specially asked Aunt He to cook your favorite dish, Dad, come and try it."

After seeing Zheng Yanan sitting down, Li Hongye picked up his chopsticks and smiled at Zheng Shiqi:

"Okay, Shiqi is very thoughtful. I'll try it now. Let's eat, everyone."

The four of them sat at the dining table and ate dinner quietly. Occasionally, Li Hongye would ask about Li Chuyue and Zheng Shiqi's situation at school.

During the meal, Zheng Yanan was extremely anxious and couldn't help but say:

"Honey, this is an important stage in the company's development. I think it's more appropriate for me, who has a closer relationship with the company, to take over the project. Can we wait until after this stage to reduce the workload?"

Li Chuyue showed no expression after hearing this and continued to eat quietly.

When Zheng Shiqi heard this, she was horrified, her eyes widened, and she couldn't control her temper. She slammed her chopsticks on the table and asked loudly:

"Why don't you let mom take over the company?"

Zheng Yanan was frightened by Zheng Shiqi's sudden questioning of Li Hongye, and immediately shouted to stop Zheng Shiqi.

"Shiqi, how do you talk to your father?

Just listen to our adult affairs, don't get involved as a kid, hurry up and apologize to your father!"

Zheng Shiqi also realized that she had overreacted, and immediately bowed her head and admitted her mistake:

"Dad, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have been nosy and shouldn't have spoken to you in that tone. I'm really sorry."

Li Chuyue quietly watched Zheng Shiqi's expression changing like magic, finding it quite interesting, and snorted coldly with a curled lip.

After hearing Zheng Shiqi's sudden outburst of questioning, Li Hongye also understood the ambitions that Zheng Yanan and Zheng Shiqi, mother and daughter, had always had. It seemed that his efforts to become a family with them were in vain.

Li Hongye concealed his inner disappointment and said with a faint smile: "It's okay, it's good to correct mistakes.

The company has already made the decision and it will not change.

Even if the company reaches an important stage, it will take several years. How much time will we have to enjoy life then?

Yanan, just as you advised me, I appreciate your efforts. Now the company is developing steadily, I want you to enjoy yourself and don’t want you to work hard.

Of course, I also thought that you might not get used to not working that quickly, so I just reduced your workload.”

Zheng Yanan felt that it was Zheng Shiqi's disruption that made Li Hongye more determined, and she was angry at Zheng Shiqi for not fighting back.

Seeing that Li Hongye was so determined, she was afraid that if she continued to tolerate Li Hongye's unhappiness, he would not let her go to the company.

So Zheng Yanan used her superb acting skills like a movie queen, shed tears and said with emotion:

"Okay, husband. I will listen to you. I am very happy that you understand my hard work. Thank you for thinking about me so much."

After that, everyone had their own thoughts in mind, and after dinner, they went back to their rooms.

Zheng Yanan sat in front of the dressing table, feeling sad that all her years of hard work were about to slip away from her hands.

It was really painful, and I gritted my teeth and thought about how I could get back to the core of the company.

Zheng Shiqi returned to her room and originally wanted to complain to Wu Ziyao, but she didn't want to reveal too much information to let Brother Ziyao know that she and her mother had no say in this family.

So she angrily took out her cell phone and once again used her own method to get someone to spread rumors about Li Chuyue on the school website.

After Li Chuyue returned to her room, she secretly contacted her father in the study, asking about the specific situation and asking for advice on some things in the company that she didn't understand. Li Hongye also patiently taught her.
