heartstrings

"Is she your girlfriend?"

Unexpectedly, it was exposed at a glance.

"My mother seems to have woken up!" Ke Ruochu evaded his eyes and said bluffing, successfully avoiding the topic.

As expected, she still couldn't easily talk about her relationship in front of her elders. Ke Ruochu didn't dare to admit it in front of Ke Zhihan because she was worried that Ke Zhihan would tell Yuan Luzhi.

In this regard, Ke Ruochu has shadows over Yuan Luzhi.Her mother's desire to control her was almost breathless. Ever since she was a child, Yuan Luzhi had to strictly control what kind of friends she made, let alone who she was dating.

Yuan Luzhi has emphasized to Ke Ruochu more than once, saying that if Ke Ruochu wants to date in the future, she must first let her see it.

In fact, Ke Ruochu was worried that Yuan Luzhi would not support her being with Sheng Ruqi, because Yuan Luzhi always said that the partner must be of the same family, and all conditions must match.

Sheng Ruqi is ten years older than her...

In terms of age alone, Ke Ruochu was a little uncertain.

"Mom, you're awake."

On the hospital bed, Yuan Luzhi forced herself to sit up.

Seeing that she wanted to drink water, Ke Ruochu hurriedly picked up the water glass on the side and handed it over, "Why are you so careless, you fainted, did you go for surgery without eating?"

After Yuan Luzhi took a sip of water, she began to chant, "Do you still remember me as a mother? I don't know what I'm busy with all day long. I used to go home on weekends, but now it's good. I don't see anyone anymore."

Although it is easy to make troubles when she returns home, Ke Ruochu knows that Yuan Luzhi is looking forward to her going back every week, but she just wants to save face and speak up.Seeing Yuan Luzhi's exhausted appearance, Ke Ruochu felt uncomfortable, because of the cold war before, she hadn't cared much about her mother for more than a month, and she didn't even make a phone call.

Ke Ruochu lowered his head and compromised first: "I will go home when I have time."

Yuan Luzhi turned her head away, "You are busy with your work, and you don't need to come back in the future. You talk back to me and make me angry when you come back. Why do I want you to come back?"

"If you are sick, don't say a few words. Ruochu is usually busy, and the school still has classes." Ke Zhihan interrupted the conversation between the mother and daughter, she bent down, picked up a pillow and put it on Yuan Luzhi's back, "I didn't say you, Working overtime is like working hard, Doctor Yuan should have a long memory this time, right?"

After being told by Ke Zhihan, Yuan Luzhi became quiet, paused for a while, and asked again: "Why are you here at night, it's nothing important."

"I've found that you haven't changed your stubbornness for so many years. It's okay to faint?" Ke Zhihan looked at Ke Ruochu, "Are you still going to work tomorrow? There's nothing else going on here. I'll just stay here tonight, tomorrow weekend , I rest."

"How can this be done." Ke Ruochu immediately objected, letting her aunt take care of her mother here but go back by herself, it is impossible to justify, "You go back, little aunt, I will stay and take care of you."

Yuan Luzhi rubbed her forehead and said, "You all go back, I don't need to accompany you to the bed. I will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow."

"Mom, I'll stay with you."

"You go back, what's the use of staying here, don't you plan to go to work tomorrow? You still want to go to work tomorrow and then go to bed, don't embarrass me in the hospital again."

Ke Ruochu was speechless because her mother was so amazing that she could say words of concern like insults.

In the end, Ke Ruochu went back, and Ke Zhihan stayed. Normally, no one could convince Yuan Luzhi, except Ke Zhihan.Regarding this point, Ke Ruochu also finds it inconceivable, maybe there really is a saying that "one thing subsides one thing".

Yuan Luzhi leaned on the hospital bed and looked at Ke Zhihan: "Are you really not going back?"

"I can't sleep, you can chat with me."

Yuan Luzhi laughed it off, and had nothing to do with her.

"Are you being too strict with Ruochu? If you put all your focus on her, she will be very tired." Ke Zhihan pulled the chair and sat down beside the hospital bed, "Don't always think about your good daughter, Think about yourself too."

"I have nothing else to think about right now."

Ke Zhihan tilted her head: "For example, remarry."

Yuan Luzhi answered simply: "I don't think about it."

Seeing Yuan Luzhi's disappointment in marriage, Ke Zhihan subconsciously said, "Not everyone is like my brother..."

Halfway through speaking, Ke Zhihan fell silent.

I knew I had stepped on a thunderbolt.

"What about you, when will you consider getting married?" Yuan Luzhi threw the question to Ke Zhihan, who is seven years younger than her and will be forty this year.

Ke Zhihan smiled, "I don't want to get married."

"why?"

"You need a reason to get married, but do you need a reason not to get married?" Ke Zhihan said freely.

Marriage is also a tragedy if you don't meet the right person, indeed it's better not to get married, Yuan Luzhi didn't refute Ke Zhihan.

"You don't plan to remarry, and I don't want to get married either," Ke Zhihan said in a joking tone, "I think...we might just get along together in the future, just to relieve boredom."

Yuan Luzhi took Ke Zhihan's words: "I told you seriously before, if you don't mind, you can live in my place, there are several vacant rooms."

"You have a good plan. I will live in your house, and someone will cook for you every night from now on."

Yuan Luzhi rarely laughed, "I won't charge your rent."

Ke Zhihan lowered his head and smiled, but didn't continue talking.

Monday, ten o'clock in the morning.

JM headquarters building.

Sheng Ruqi sat at the desk, lowered her head and held on to the pen, signing the documents one by one. The office was quiet, except for the sound of the tip of her nose rubbing against the white paper.

The intercom phone rang.

Sheng Ruqi lowered her head and took the microphone, "What's the matter?"

It was the secretary's voice: "Mr. Sheng, is it convenient for you now? Mr. Ke wants to see you."

"Mr. Ke? The newly appointed legal director?" Although Sheng Ruqi doesn't manage legal matters, she must be aware of changes in the company's top management.

"Well, Mr. Ke is in charge of the legal affairs now."

"I have time now."

Not long after, there was a knock on the door.

Sheng Ruqi signed the last document, "Please come in."

"Mr. Sheng, Mr. Ke is here."

Sheng Ruqi got up and walked a few steps. After seeing the person in front of her clearly, she didn't speak for a few seconds. I have to say that the world can be so small that it's unbelievable when it gets small.

The newly appointed legal director, Ke Zhihan, turns out to be Little White Rabbit's sister-in-law.

Ke Zhihan was also surprised.

Although she only met once, she still recognized Sheng Ruqi at a glance. She was the woman who was with Ke Ruochu in the hospital the night before yesterday.For such a beautiful woman with excellent image and temperament, it is hard not to be impressed even if it is just a one-sided relationship.What's more, she thought it was Ke Ruochu's girlfriend.

It's just that the feeling Sheng Ruqi gave Ke Zhihan this time was completely different from last time. The night before yesterday, Sheng Ruqi had no makeup and dressed casually, but today, Ke Zhihan was really amazed by the woman in front of her.

Whether it's face, body, or temperament.

Sheng Ruqi wore a tight-fitting sweater on her upper body, and her curves were indeed perfect. She was full where she should be full, and thin where she should be thin. The advantages of long legs and thin waist are displayed to the extreme.

Ke Zhihan doesn't have much height advantage in front of Sheng Ruqi, but she can feel the oppressiveness of Sheng Ruqi. Also, at the age of 32, she is definitely not an ordinary person who can sit in her position in the company.

After a while of silence.

Although the two recognized each other, they had a tacit understanding that they did not have a private matter at the hospital the night before. After all, they are still in the company and it is still working time.

"Mr. Ke, welcome to join JM."

"Mr. Sheng, I've admired you for a long time." Ke Zhihan shook hands with Sheng Ruqi, and said with a smile, "I've always heard them talk about you, and today we finally meet."

Sheng Ruqi smiled lightly, she was self-aware, if Ke Zhihan had heard something about her from the company, then Ke Zhihan's impression of her would not be much better.Because she heard from Lin Yan that people in the company privately gave her a nickname, "Scumbag of the Prosperous Age".

After joining JM, Ke Zhihan did hear a lot of gossip about Sheng Ruqi. She didn't take it seriously at first. For her co-workers, she always only cared about her work ability and ignored her private life. Will you be so close to Sheng Ruqi?

"President Ke, what would you like to drink?"

"Coffee, thanks."

"President Sheng, do you want coffee too?" The secretary asked Sheng Ruqi again.

Sheng Ruqi also wanted to drink coffee, but remembered that Ke Ruochu had repeatedly reminded her to drink less coffee, so she said to the secretary, "Pour me a cup of warm water."

The two sat down on the sofa, because they had a project this week and they were going on a business trip together, so Ke Zhihan thought about coming today to say hello to Sheng Ruqi in advance and chat first.

"Mr. Ke, you just came to JM, and you are on a business trip. It's really hard."

"I've been idle in Nancheng for almost half a month, and I can't wait to get busy with work." Ke Zhihan also couldn't be free, she took a sip of her coffee, "President Sheng, I won't disturb your work if there's nothing else, you're busy. "

Sheng Ruqi got up and sent Ke Zhihan to the door of the office.

When Ke Zhihan was about to turn around, he suddenly said, "By the way, Mr. Sheng, you..."

"what?"

"See you at the airport tomorrow." Ke Zhihan originally wanted to ask Sheng Ruqi how she and her niece met, but it was too inappropriate to ask such a question in a company.

Sheng Ruqi: "See you tomorrow."

In the evening, Ke Ruochu received a call from Sheng Ruqi when he returned to the dormitory after finishing his elective courses.

Sheng Ruqi told her before that when chasing a girlfriend, remember to call her every day. Since that day, Ke Ruochu has received calls from Sheng Ruqi every day, and she has never missed it.

"Have you arrived at the dormitory?"

"Just arrived, how about you, what are you doing now?"

Sheng Ruqi lay on her back on the sofa, touching sweet beans while talking on the phone, paused intentionally, and then whispered softly: "I'm thinking about the little fool."

Ke Ruochu laughed straight on the other end of the phone.

Sheng Ruqi listened: "I wonder why you are so happy, little fool?"

"I'm happy~~~" Ke Ruochu found that Sheng Ruqi could always say such things to tease her. At first, she was worried that Sheng Ruqi would think her naive, but now it seems that Sheng Ruqi is sometimes more naive than her.

Just like this, the two of you said something to each other, as if there was always something to say.

"Stupid, I'm going on a business trip tomorrow."

"I'm going on a business trip again."

"It won't be long, I'll be back in two days. Guess who I'm with?" Sheng Ruqi looked at the ceiling, holding a pillow in her arms, which was far less comfortable than the little white rabbit, and wanted to hug her again.

"Who?" Sheng Ruqi asked, Ke Ruochu thought it must be someone he knew.

"Ke Zhihan, do you know him?"

Ke Zhihan, a name that I am so familiar with.

"My sister-in-law... so my sister-in-law went to work in your company?!" Ke Ruochu felt so strange at first, the world is so small.

The next morning, Sheng Ruqi flew to City Y with a project team of seven people, and Ke Zhihan was among them.

JM's treatment is very good, and they are all arranged first class.

After a brief lunch in City Y, the group went to the partner company non-stop, mainly to negotiate and draw up the latest project contract.

Since it is a company that has cooperated for many years, the negotiation between the two parties went smoothly. In the end, at the negotiation table, Sheng Ruqi temporarily suppressed the other party's five profit points.

Ke Zhihan has also participated in many business negotiations, and she has never seen anyone who can perfectly combine tact and strength like Sheng Ruqi.

There are no rumors in the company that Sheng always relies on "showing off" to get his position, but after working with Sheng Ruqi, Ke Zhihan doesn't think so. She is sexy, charming and feminine, but she doesn't make people feel weak at all.

Not talking about private life, to be honest, Ke Zhihan admires a woman like Sheng Ruqi, who is confident and capable.

After the celebration banquet in the evening, several people in the same company clamored to go to the nightclub to get high.

"I'm a little tired, so I won't go, you guys have fun." In places like nightclubs, Ke Zhihan can't get involved, because young people like them.

"Mr. Sheng, shall we go?"

"Boss Sheng will definitely go~"

"Let's go, let's go~"

"I'm not going either, you play." Sheng Ruqi hasn't been to nightclubs for a long time. She used to go to nightclubs to drink and have fun, but now someone keeps her from drinking every day. Besides, if she has time, why would she go to nightclubs? Go early to accompany her The little white rabbit at home.

"No way, Mr. Sheng, you are the queen of nightclubs, why don't you go! You must go!"

"Yes, the nightclub queen must go..."

"Club Queen!"

"..."

A group of people started booing around Sheng Ruqi, probably because they were too excited to sign a big deal today, and they didn't care too much about the boss, but the main reason was because Sheng Ruqi usually had fun.

Club queen? ?What kind of nickname is this? Sheng Ruqi has a big head, and when he tilted his head, he happened to meet Ke Zhihan's eyes.

"I'm not going, I'm tired too." Sheng Ruqi refused again.

The boss refused twice in a row. Everyone understands that there is no point in continuing to boo.

Wait until the others leave.

Ke Zhihan asked Sheng Ruqi with a smile, "Why don't you go to the fun with them?"

Sheng Ruqi smiled, without changing her expression: "Actually, I don't usually like to go to these places."

Ke Zhihan was quite surprised, she thought Sheng Ruqi was just like the rumor in the company, she was the kind who could play, "Then they call you... the queen of nightclubs?"

Sheng Ruqi laughed again, and continued to explain: "You know, sometimes there is no way to socialize, so I have to go. I am also very helpless."

Never clubbing Sheng Ruqi (doge)

The old hooligan who is full of desire to survive and frantically brushes up his sister-in-law's favor, hahaha, let you waste time in the past
