over ten thousand people

Although Zhou Qian took ten days off, we returned to the capital ahead of schedule.It's not that just a few days is enough to talk about lovesickness, but Zhou Qian still has other business to do-he is a professional athlete and a top student at the same time, so naturally he refuses to waste any time.The degree he wants has already been obtained, but this does not affect his determination to continue his studies.

"I'm going to find a mentor, you go to manage the company, just right, huh?"

In this regard, Zhou Qian described it this way, and it cannot be said that there is no joke.

I must admit that corporate matters do require me.But for me now, the only thing that matters is him.Now that he has said so, I can barely settle down and focus on dealing with the backlog of work in the past few days.The group hasn't made any big moves recently, and I quickly resolved it. I sat on pins and needles in the office and simply picked up the car keys and left.

Compared with being able to stay in the company until the end almost every day before, this is too unusual. Everyone who saw me going downstairs was dumbfounded, and they watched me off without blinking, with three big characters written all over their faces.Just before the elevator doors closed, I heard their sudden discussion——

"...The vice president is leaving now?"

"Is our company going to close down?"

"What nonsense! Can't you see the happy face of the vice president?"

"No, don't we have a princess..."

...with a happy face?I?

I couldn't help but look at my face on the mirror-smooth elevator wall.Basically, there is no difference, but the small arc at the corner of the mouth really cannot be suppressed no matter how much it is pressed.

Imagining their reaction when they knew that the so-called princess was Zhou Qian, I almost laughed out loud.It probably means that Cao Cao and Cao Cao will arrive soon, and the Bluetooth headset was connected at this time, and Zhou Qian's voice came to my ears: "Are you free tonight?"

"Of course." I replied without thinking, "Will Your Majesty invite me to dinner?"

He smiled lowly. "Reciprocity, it's my turn to invite you."

I couldn't help shaking my head. "What kind of reciprocity are we talking about between you and me? Your Majesty, if you say that, I will be sad."

There was a moment of silence on the other side, and suddenly there was a burst of joy. "I haven't seen you for many years, Xie Xiang really has become more sharp-tongued."

"You can't say that," I refuted him in a serious manner. "Statement of the facts is not a sharp tongue. Besides, with Zhou Xiangjinyu in front of me, how dare I fight against him?"

Zhou Qian was really happy.After chatting back and forth a few more words—talking with others is not nutritious, and talking with him becomes a pleasure—he first pulled the topic back: "Seriously, see you at six in the afternoon?"

I raised my wrist and looked, and the hour hand was pointing to eleven o'clock. "Are you still at school, Your Majesty?"

This kind of non-answer and rhetorical question obviously made Zhou Qian guess something. "Is it okay for you to leave work so early?" He asked suspiciously.

I'm not going to answer him either, since that's the obvious default. "Let's eat together at noon," I said quickly, without any intention of leaving him room to refuse, "I'm going to pick you up now."

Zhou Qian was quiet for a while. "You've wanted to do this for a long time, right?" He said in an affirmative tone, and all his previous suspicions became angry and funny.

"They will know sooner or later." My answer was very vague, but I believe he understands—the world champion plus the halo of being a top student, as well as the bonus of appearance, the men and women chasing after him may be able to go around the university city ten times; if I don't show up Town by town, the number is estimated to more than double.

"You are..." He muttered in a low voice, and the latter half of the sentence sounded like "what a joke", but he still agreed. "Low-point."

I agreed, but I was quite disapproving.low key?As the two of us, we can't keep a low profile even if we want to!

But when I parked the car in front of the teaching building, I realized why Zhou Qian made such a request.This building is located on the edge of the campus, surrounded by old trees and deep, ordinary people will not go there.There are many tourists on the main road, but only the chirping of unknown birds can be heard here.

No wonder he agreed so easily... I patted the steering wheel helplessly, got out of the car and waited for someone.He appeared quickly, and he was alone, which also verified my guess. "Your Majesty," I couldn't help saying when he walked out of the building door, "You know that there is no one around."

Hearing my complaint, Zhou Qian smiled. "Isn't it just right?" he teased.

Although I sincerely want to prevent others from coveting him, but then again, even if he tries his best to avoid possible troubles for me, he can't escape the first day of the junior high school but not the fifteenth day.I grunted reluctantly and helped him open the co-pilot's door.

Seeing this, the smile on Zhou Qian's face became even brighter.I was just about to point out that you, Your Majesty, have a bit of a bad taste, but a third person's voice pierced | "...Wait, Your Majesty!"

At first hearing this title, Zhou Qian's eyebrows almost flew up.He stopped on the stone steps, stared at me suspiciously, and then looked back.A tall boy in a white coat rushed out of the building like a whirlwind, holding a brick-like original book in his hand: "Fortunately, I caught up..." He was out of breath, sweating from the tip of his nose, "The boss asked me to give this to you." You, he said you might be useful."

I blinked, thinking that boss should be what they call their mentor in private.But the point is not here, but in——

"Okay, thank you." Zhou Qian took it and asked calmly, "What did you call me just now?"

"Senior brother!" The boy scratched his head in confusion, and suddenly realized, "You mean His Majesty? It has been spread all over the Internet, senior brother, you haven't seen it yet, have you?"

Hearing this answer, Zhou Qian glanced at me with a half-smile on his face.Following his gaze, the boy also noticed me, and his expression was stunned for a moment: "This is not thanks..." As if realizing that he had lost his composure, he stopped abruptly, almost biting his own tongue.

"My friend." Zhou Qian explained.Seeing that the boy was still staring suspiciously at me and the opened car door beside me, he added lightly: "My boyfriend."

At this moment, the expression on the boy's face could no longer be described as bewildered, and it was not enough to turn pale with shock. "Brother, you..."

"What?" Zhou Qian asked patiently, completely unaffected.

The boy looked at me, then at Zhou Qian.Although his face was pale, he still nodded firmly. "Brother, don't worry! I won't talk nonsense!" He gestured to zip up the front of his lips, and ran up the steps.

Zhou Qian watched him enter the door, then turned and got into the car.When I stepped on the accelerator, he said lightly: "Do you owe me an explanation?"

When I saw his stormy eyes in the rearview mirror, I was almost shocked.Was I so unlucky to be caught face to face?

But this matter is as a foregone conclusion as I guessed before, even if Zhou Qian is upset, he will be powerless. "You and the fourth brother..." He seemed to want to grind his teeth after reading the commentary articles signed by pseudonyms, "There's nothing else to do, right?"

I struggled not to avoid his stare. "Of course not. Moreover, even if Zhou Xiang knew, he would definitely agree."

"Do you want to say three-to-one, the minority obeys the majority?" Zhou Qian was really grinding his teeth this time. "Okay, I'm getting fatter!"

If it wasn't for the car that was still moving, I was really worried that he would just walk away like this. "It's not that the minority obeys the majority, Your Majesty." I hastened to explain, "It's just a convenient name." It's just a change of status; this little selfishness, can't he satisfy us?

To this kind of answer, Zhou Qian rolled his eyes at me, but he stopped staring at me anyway. "It's just this time, it's not an example." He said angrily.

After escaping, I breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help cursing Yongmeng who had successfully escaped the storm because he returned to China. "This restaurant is not bad today, but I don't know if His Majesty has been there."

Zhou Qian gave me a sharp look of "I know you are changing the subject". "Give me the phone." He said without doubt.Seeing me stunned, he added angrily: "Mine cannot make international calls."

It turns out that His Majesty didn't mean to let Yong Meng go lightly... I was still slandering Yong Meng just now, but now I can't help but sweat for him, and at the same time suspect that His Majesty must be able to read minds, at least through mine. "Okay," I offered him with one hand, "the password is..."

That year, that month, that day.

Mid-Autumn Festival, Guanque Tower.

The first time he said he believed in me, the first time he took the initiative to reach out to me.

After hearing the string of numbers, Zhou Qian paused when he took it.For a long time, he fixed his eyes on me with a complicated expression. "Do you remember?"

"Never forget." I whispered.

All around is full of traffic and noisy.The traffic jam started again, and someone honked impatiently.But I hardly notice them; the tiny compartment is like a solitary paradise, just me and him.

Zhou Qian sighed softly, but it was as clear as if it was in my ear. "There's really nothing I can do about you." He said disgustedly, but pulled off his seat belt, leaned over and gave me a kiss, almost viciously.

There was a tingle on my lip, and I tasted blood, but I couldn't help laughing. "Your Majesty," I said when he drew back a little, "if anyone asks about this, can I say you did it?"
