Leisurely reborn

As the end of the year approached, Zhou Yanzhi unfortunately caught a cold because he went back to City B and then returned to City Z. The time was too short and the temperature difference between the two sides was too great.

Zhou Yanzhi's health has always been very good. Generally speaking, it is difficult for him to catch a cold and have a fever again in a year. It is precisely because of this that once he gets sick, he always strikes aggressively.

He didn't measure his body temperature either. Anyway, Zhou Yanzhi knew that he must have a fever right now.

"Young Master Zhou, you have another itinerary tonight, which is the Z city government's year-end summary reception. If you are not feeling well, I will postpone this itinerary. There is no real content in this reception. If there is something, it will naturally happen Someone came to look for you." Shi Bing said.

Zhou Yanzhi sat on the sofa, closed his eyes and remained silent, as if he had fallen asleep.

Seeing that Zhou Yanzhi's lips were chapped and peeling, Shi Bing hurried to get a glass of warm water and cold medicine.

"Master Zhou, take some medicine."

Zhou Yanzhi was silent for a while, then slowly opened his eyes, nodded tiredly, took cold medicine, and drank a large glass of warm water.

"I'll rest for a while, call me when the time is up." Zhou Yanzhi said.

Shi Bing frowned, "Are you going?"

Zhou Yanzhi nodded, "Yes."

"But your body?"

"no problem."

Seeing that Zhou Yanzhi insisted on saying this, Shi Bing had no choice but to nod helplessly. What Zhou Yanzhi said was hard to change.

Shi Bing could only let Zhou Yanzhi rest for a while as much as possible.

Zhou Yanzhi, who had taken cold medicine, soon fell into a drowsy sleep.

After sleeping for two hours, Shi Bing gently woke him up.

However, Zhou Yanzhi felt that his headache was getting worse and his body temperature was extremely high.

But for him, he didn't want to show how tired he was. After getting up and washing up, he got into the car.

At this time, his face was still flushed sickly, but because of the hazy night, he couldn't see clearly.

Zhou Yanzhi arrived late, and when he arrived, almost everyone invited to the reception had arrived.

Sure enough, Zhou Yanzhi saw Chen Youran again.

The moment he saw Chen Youran, Zhou Yanzhi knew that although he deliberately stopped paying attention to his news for such a long time, it is undeniable that this person has done many incredible things in the past for such a long time.

Thinking of the means behind those so-called major events, Zhou Yanzhi couldn't help frowning, and his face, which was already ugly due to illness, immediately became even more ugly.The whole person exudes an aura of not getting close to strangers.

In the past, whenever Zhou Yanzhi was present, there would always be many people surrounding him. From the time he entered the arena to the time he left the arena, there would always be obsequious and courteous figures around him.

It's the same today, but it's probably because his face is too ugly today, so the people who came to chat with him, they all said a few polite words, then got up and left.This calmed him down quite a bit.

Having a headache, Zhou Yanzhi couldn't help but lightly poked his temples.

After all the staff arrived, the relevant government personnel gave speeches, and the tone was the same every year, and there were also some different things every year.Not too verbose, because there's no need for that.

After all the relevant personnel had spoken, Zhou Yanzhi was named and asked to say a few words.

This is also a convention.

Because the speech was notified long ago, Shi Bing had already asked his assistants to write the speech, and Zhou Yanzhi could just read it.

On the way here, Zhou Yanzhi also briefly read the speech. It was well written and he was not ashamed of his salary, but he was not in a good mood.

After taking the stage, Zhou Yanzhi first roughly talked about the contents of the prepared speech, and then changed the subject to talk about businessmen and social responsibilities.

Capable people should assume more social responsibilities instead of asking for it by any means.

Zhou Yanzhi didn't say too much, he just mentioned a little bit, but it was still obvious that he was talking about someone.

On this kind of occasion, all the elites came to participate, so naturally they would not be too explicit, but after Zhou Yanzhi finished speaking, there were still many people who cast veiled glances at Chen Youran.

Chen Youran smiled calmly, as if he didn't care at all, but those who are familiar with him will find that his smile is not so natural.

After Zhou Yanzhi finished speaking, he stepped down.

And then the one who came to the stage by Zhou Yan was miserable, and he didn't know what to say at all.The people below were obviously very touched by Zhou Yanzhi's words, and they were also very curious, and many of them were whispering.This guy had no choice, so he told a joke first to draw everyone's attention back.

After Zhou Yanzhi came down, he sat on the sofa to rest.He is very tired.

In fact, he really wanted to leave now, but there were still people talking, so it would be too impolite for him to leave now, this is not allowed by his tutor.If you don't come, it's fine. If you come, you can't be too rude.

Finally, all the representatives of the enterprises had finished their speeches, and it was time for free exchange.

Zhou Yanzhi just paused for about ten minutes, then greeted the officials who presided over the reception, and left.

Because the place where the reception was held was a five-star hotel, Zhou Yanzhi had a long-term rented suite here, and he was really tired at the moment and didn't want to move, so he asked Shi Bing to take him to the suite.

After sending Zhou Yanzhi back to the suite, Shi Bing went out and had to do some things.

So, when someone knocked on the door many times, Zhou Yanzhi, who was dizzy with a splitting headache, had to get up and open the door.

Opening the door and looking at the person standing outside, Zhou Yanzhi was stunned for a while, his mind was not clear and he didn't react.

"Would you like me to come in and sit for a while?" Chen Youran said with a smile.

Zhou Yanzhi frowned, because he was sick and took cold medicine that made people feel dull. His brain was really slow, and after a while, he let out a oh, let the door open, and let Chen Youran walk in.

"What do you want to drink?" Although Zhou Yanzhi was very dull, he did not lack the courtesy he should have.

"Plain water is fine, I'll do it myself." Chen Youran poured two cups of warm water by himself, gave Zhou Yanzhi a cup, and himself a cup.

The two sat on the sofa, facing each other.

Zhou Yanzhi was indeed dull at the moment, he just sat there blankly and didn't speak.

Chen Youran was even worse, and she didn't say a word, the two just sat like this.

Sitting and sitting, Zhou Yanzhi even dozed off!Head bit by bit is the same as fishing.

After a while, someone knocked on the door again. Zhou Yanzhi seemed to have been awakened. Just as he was about to get up to open the door, Chen Youran had already stood up.

"It should be the waiter, please sit down, I will open the door."

After finishing speaking, Chen Youran went to the door to open it, and soon, he pushed a dining car in, but the waiter didn't follow.

Zhou Yanzhi was a little confused.

Chen Youran directly lifted a lid on the dining car, and a pot of pumpkin porridge was cooked very well.

He took a small bowl, filled a bowl of pumpkin porridge and put it in front of Zhou Yanzhi, "Eat it while it's hot."

Zhou Yanzhi looked at Chen Youran in confusion.

Chen Youran smiled, "Why, let me feed you?"

Seeing that Zhou Yanzhi was silent, Chen Youran actually sat beside him, scooped up some porridge with a spoon, blew it cold, and brought it to Zhou Yanzhi's lips.

After swallowing a mouthful of porridge, Zhou Yanzhi seemed to have a sudden reaction, took the porridge bowl from Chen Youran's hand, and ate it slowly by himself.

After eating two bowls of porridge in a row, he put down the bowl.

Perhaps because of eating, Zhou Yanzhi's reaction ability seems to have recovered a little bit.

But looking at Chen Youran, Zhou Yanzhi suddenly didn't know what to say.

"I see that your complexion is not very good, your lips are red and dry, you have a fever, have you taken any medicine?" Chen Youran asked.

Zhou Yanzhi wanted to shake his head, but for some reason, he finally nodded slightly.

Chen Youran smiled, "Eat lightly and drink more warm water these two days."

"En." Zhou Yanzhi hummed a little stiffly.

Chen Youran sat for a while, then got up, "Go to rest earlier."

After seeing off Chen Youran, Zhou Yanzhi couldn't sleep.

Has this man always been like this?

After thinking wildly for a while, Zhou Yanzhi couldn't resist the medicine and sleepiness after all, and fell asleep again.

Early the next morning, around the time Zhou Yanzhi woke up, Shi Bing came over.Shi Bing had the key to the room in his hand, so he didn't need to knock on the door.

Shi Bing also brought a can of porridge, which he said was prepared in the kitchen.

Zhou Yanzhi ate the porridge, and the memories of last night came back one after another.Was this porridge prepared by Chen Youran?

"Call someone to ask, who made this porridge..."

Although Shi Bing was surprised, he didn't say much, so he asked immediately, and got the answer quickly, "The chef made it."

Zhou Yanzhi hummed, and didn't say anything more, but there was an inexplicable sense of loss in his heart.

At this time, Zhou Yanzhi didn't know, and the chef was also puzzled: "How does Mr. Chen know Mr. Zhou asked who made the porridge? Besides, why didn't Mr. Zhou know about the porridge made by Mr. Chen?"

Such unsolvable mysteries are destined to be taken to the grave.

What happened this time was over, and Zhou Yanzhi didn't think much about it.It's just that he started to unknowingly pay attention to Chen Youran again!

Perhaps, he is not what he imagined.Zhou Yanzhi constructed a lot of good ideas in his heart. If Chen Youran wasn't as unscrupulous as he appeared on the surface, maybe they could become friends.

Thinking of this possibility, Zhou Yanzhi felt a sense of joy in his heart, which was really indescribable and quite exciting.

If Zhou Yanzhi shared this mood with others, he would know that his current mood is very much like a girl in first love.

It's a pity that he is destined not to share this feeling with others.

It was probably because of this feeling, so the next time, when Chen Youran asked him out for dinner, he agreed.

This time, Chen Youran invited him to his house.

Chen Youran's apartment is bigger than his. In a [-]-square-meter house, the kitchen is partitioned with transparent tempered glass, while the bedroom and living room are partitioned with hollowed-out soft partitions.The study is not separated separately, but belongs to a whole with the living room.

After entering the door, Zhou Yanzhi's eyes lingered on the ridiculously large kitchen.

This kitchen can be said to be larger than the kitchens of some small restaurants, with all kinds of modern cooking equipment in it.There is no problem in making Chinese food, and there is no problem in making Western desserts!

Two large side-by-side refrigerators with plenty of space.Equipment such as ovens are embedded in the wall.

The entire kitchen is very clean, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is spotless, at least Zhou Yanzhi did not see any traces of oily smoke.

After one refrigerator was opened, it was full of fruits and vegetables, as well as various drinks, and in the other refrigerator, it was full of various meats.

Seeing that Zhou Yanzhi was still in a suit and leather shoes, Chen Youran smiled, "Aren't you tired of wearing such serious clothes?"

Zhou Yanzhi didn't speak, and silently took off his suit jacket, undid two buttons on the collar of his shirt, undid his cuff buttons, and rolled his sleeves up to his elbows.

Chen Youran was even more straightforward, directly hanging an apron on her body, "Come help me tie it, my hands are stained with oil."

The corners of Zhou Yanzhi's mouth twitched, but in the end he didn't say anything, and came over to tie Chen Youran's apron belt.

Chen Youran in a white shirt and black trousers, wearing a bear-printed apron, this image is really...pretty good.

"Can you eat spicy food?" Chen Youran smiled.

"a little."

"Let's have a slightly spicy one." Chen Youran said, "Can I eat sweet ones?"

"Fortunately."

The dishes Chen Youran cooked this time were completely different from the last time in the hotel. They were less delicate, but more homely.All in all, although Zhou Yanzhi didn't want to say it, he had to admit that Chen Youran's dishes were really delicious!

After this meal, Zhou Yanzhi's mood was even more inexplicable.

Next, Chen Youran's company and Zhou's had another cooperation project. Chen Youran intended to back down, and Zhou Yanzhi also intended to reach a cooperation agreement, so the matter was successfully concluded!

However, what Zhou Yanzhi never expected was that Chen Youran approached him with the purpose of reaching a cooperation case from the very beginning.

At this time, Zhou Yanzhi completely forgot what his old man often said: Don't listen to one side or believe one side in everything.

In other matters, Zhou Yanzhi could not listen to one side or believe in another, but he couldn't do it in Chen Youran's matter.

Subjectively, Zhou Yanzhi believed that Chen Youran approached him only to win the Zhou's project, and everything Chen Youran did was scheming and serving his goals!

Zhou Yanzhi was very angry, very angry, a kind of anger beyond his own imagination.

friend?Shit friend!

From this moment on, Zhou Yanzhi was completely unwilling to trust Chen Youran anymore.A person full of lies, an unscrupulous person, a person without limits, a person without kindness... Zhou Yanzhi would not be friends with such a person, never!

Angry from embarrassment is probably the best word to describe Zhou Yanzhi's mood at this time.

It's a pity that Zhou Yanzhi was in it without knowing it.

That is to say, from this moment on, Zhou's and Chen Youran's companies have completely become competitors.

Zhou Yanzhi was merciless in terms of source of customers, projects, and market share. Chen Youran didn't seem to expect Zhou Yanzhi to be so ruthless at the beginning, and he didn't react for a while. When he reacted, he would fight back without mercy.

So you come and go, it's really a wonderful and intense annual drama!

People in the circle are very strange. Zhou has always been relatively gentle. Many companies are willing to cooperate with Zhou, because Zhou has always done things aboveboard. If you cooperate with Zhou, as long as you are serious and meticulous, then forever You don't have to worry about Mrs. Zhou setting you up, and you don't have to worry about Mrs. Zhou stabbing you in the back.

And most of the time, the Zhou family is more moderate in doing things, not extreme, and will not say that relying on their own strengths, they will try their best to suppress others' market...

But during this time, Mrs. Zhou was really strange.How did you meet Chen Shi?

The Chen family is a new army that has sprung up suddenly, while the Zhou family is a veteran with a deep foundation.The two come and go, and the Zhou family has a wider chance of winning. Moreover, the Zhou family's network is incomparable to the Chen family.

Those of the Zhou family are called real connections, while those of the Chen family... are just a group of people gathered together by interests. Once the interests are impacted, this group of people will fall apart and disperse.

All in all, everyone is optimistic about Zhou.In fact, this is true, Zhou's wins are more, but Chen's is not inferior.

This made people in the circle look at Chen Shi with admiration. The young boss of Chen Shi is really not an ordinary person.That's right, how can ordinary people at this age be able to control a large company with assets worth tens or even tens of billions?

……

Zhou Yanzhi was not happy.

Even though he had won Chen Youran many times and made Chen's annual report quite ugly, he was still unhappy.

he would rather...

Sighing, Zhou Yanzhi didn't know what he was thinking, he seemed a little bored.

He is already in his 30s, the old man's health is very poor, his eldest brother and second sister are all urging him, wanting him to get married early.Everyone knows that he, the old man's old man, has always been the most concerned thing in the old man's heart. Although the old man doesn't say anything, everyone knows it.

But Zhou Yanzhi wasn't interested at all.

Marriage... For him, there was a very strange feeling.

There is no shortage of excellent women of all colors around him, but he has no feeling at all that he wants to spend his life with them, and their words and deeds can't make him feel a little bit turbulent.They couldn't touch his emotions. Wouldn't it be boring to spend a lifetime with such people?

Is that necessary?

If you talk about children, it's not that he doesn't want his own children, but if he doesn't like the mother of children, will he like this child very much?

Being so annoyed by his family members, Zhou Yanzhi could only helplessly, speechless.

On the contrary, Chen Youran seems to be living a very relaxed and comfortable life. I saw him appearing on the headlines of the entertainment section with his arms around a beautiful actress twice in three days. I don't know why, but I saw Chen Youran with a sunny face Zhou Yanzhi couldn't help feeling gloomy when he saw the pictures of the beauties.

Why is he so happy and why is he so unhappy?

……

No matter what Zhou Yanzhi thinks in his heart, life is still going on.

And the confrontation between him and Chen Youran was still going on, each time getting sharper and more merciless.

The more he got to know Chen Youran, the more angry Zhou Yanzhi felt in his heart.

He is a little unclear now whether he can't understand Chen Youran, or his style of doing things, or both.

Zhou Yanzhi didn't know when he became so mean, no, he was only mean to Chen Youran.

Life is a play, the scriptwriter is God, and you never know what the next act will be.

God is definitely the worst screenwriter ever.

Suddenly one day, Zhou Yanzhi accidentally discovered a serious problem, very serious!

The new leader has changed, and unfortunately for Chen Youran, his style of doing things is completely different from that of the new leader.

In order to get various projects and open the door for her company, Chen Youran used to give away a lot of money, real estate, cars, etc. openly and secretly, but the new leader disliked these things the most.

The most important thing is that those who used to take Chen Youran's money and things to do things for Chen Youran, even if they are high-ranking and powerful, will be finished in the wind of the new leader's purge of the team.

Chen Youran...

As soon as he got the news, Zhou Yanzhi became nervous.

The Zhou family has never had such a problem. For a while, Zhou Yanzhi didn't know what to do.He suddenly began to regret it.

If he could stop making so much trouble with Chen Youran, make it clear to Chen Youran earlier, let him know what to do is right, and correct his mistakes... Then wouldn't he be able to get to the point where he is out of control today?

What made Zhou Yanzhi even more angry was that there was also a problem within Chen Youran's company.

In other words, the current Chen Youran is a target!

Before Zhou Yanzhi could think of any effective solution, Chen Youran had already been taken away, and the company was also sealed up for strict investigation!

Chen Youran lost completely, and lost in a mess.However, Zhou Yanzhi did not have any joy of victory.

Many people who watched the show thought that Zhou Yanzhi would be very happy, but that was not the case at all.He wasn't happy at all.

After being depressed all night, Zhou Yanzhi immediately used his connections to find out about Chen Youran's involvement in the case.

No one will not give the Zhou family face.

No matter how the leadership changes, the Zhou family has always stood firm. This has to be said to be a very beautiful political art.

If it were someone else, it would be impossible to get the first-hand information, but Zhou Yanzhi got it.

However, Zhou Yanzhi, who got the information, was also extremely uncomfortable!

Chen Youran did a lot of things, enough to be sentenced to death!

Zhou Yanzhi threw all the materials into the shredder and crushed them. His heart seemed to be crushed as well, and he was so uncomfortable that he could hardly breathe.

He really wanted to say that Chen Youran deserved it, but he couldn't say it.

He didn't understand that Chen Youran already had enough money, but he still wanted to earn it desperately. Is it useful to earn so much money?There is no life at all now!

Zhou Yanzhi locked himself in the room for three full days, an inexplicable thing kept lingering in his heart.

Just when Zhou Yanzhi's mood was stirring, Shi Bing brought some more information.

After Zhou Yanzhi saw it, he didn't feel good.

"If he had a bottom line in his heart, he would not agree to do these things. With his ability, as long as he is not willing, no one can force him. So in the final analysis, he is still willing to do it." Zhou Yanzhi's voice carried With an uncontrollable sadness.

Feeling extremely sad.

Shi Bing said no more.

Because of the wind direction above, the trial speed of such cases was very fast. In just half a year, a major case that was enough to cause a sensation in the whole country was completed.

Those who stood on the cusp were those big bosses who used power for personal gain, and Chen Youran, as a representative of profiteers, was also well known throughout the country.

The court ruled, death with a reprieve.

This is the limit of what Zhou Yanzhi can do. If he tries harder, he won't be able to convince himself!

Zhou Yanzhi thought, as long as Chen Youran behaves well in prison, after a few years, the suspended death sentence can be changed to life imprisonment, and the sentence will be reduced to 20 years, and then reduced to 15 years...

He's still so young, he could be out of prison in his 40s.At that time, if he has nowhere to go, he can go to Zhou's. In Zhou's case, under his nose, even if Chen Youran wants to make a mistake, he has no chance!

After hesitating for a long time, Zhou Yanzhi decided to visit Chen Youran.

Originally, he had a lot of thoughts in his heart, and there were a lot of things he wanted to say to Chen Youran, but when he saw Chen Youran, he couldn't get angry all over his body!

What is his expression?

What is his attitude?

He looked like a fool, with an indifferent expression on his face, as if life or death didn't matter, even in prison, he was still smiling, as if he was on vacation!

The anger in Zhou Yanzhi's heart surged upwards, how could he do this? !

As an outsider, he was worried outside, but he looked like he didn't care at all.He doesn't care about his own life at all, so why should he care for him?

Zhou Yanzhi was about to die of anger.

In the eyes he looked at Chen Youran, there was nothing but disappointment, an extreme disappointment.

The two of them sat facing each other across a glass.

The phone that can be used for talking is hung on the glass baffle, but Zhou Yanzhi didn't intend to take off the microphone to speak, and Chen Youran didn't intend to take off the microphone to listen to him.

The two just sat face to face, neither of them talking.

Zhou Yanzhi knew that his expression at this moment must be very ugly, but Chen Youran was always smiling, a very gentle smile, just like the one he had when he first met him, gentle and harmless to humans and animals.

No one can imagine that Chen Youran with such a gentle smile, actually...

For some reason, seeing Chen Youran like this, Zhou Yanzhi's heart felt like it was being clenched.

Discomfort, very very uncomfortable!

They just stared at each other and sat without saying a word for a full hour, long past the visiting hours.

Finally, the prison guard came over and whispered to Zhou Yanzhi, "It's time for visiting."

Zhou Yanzhi turned his head, glanced at the prison guard in a daze, and when he looked at Chen Youran again, Chen Youran had already been led by the prison guard to leave the visiting room.

The moment Chen Youran was about to walk out, he suddenly turned his head and showed an incomparably bright smile at Zhou Yanzhi.

In an instant, this smile burned Zhou Yanzhi's heart!

How could he still be smiling so brightly?

After leaving the prison, Chen Youran's last smile was always engraved in Zhou Yanzhi's mind, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get it off.

For a moment, Zhou Yanzhi even wanted to smash his brains open, grab that smiling face and tear it into pieces.

Work, extremely busy work, the work on Zhou Yanzhi's case piled up like a mountain, and he used to let the people below do the work, but now he insists on seeing it himself.

Due to the extremely heavy workload, Zhou Yanzhi lost several catties in just one month.

His temper has also become not very good, and the people around him are even a little trembling.

That night, he worked until late at night again.

Suddenly, the study door was knocked bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang.

Immediately afterwards, before Zhou Yanzhi could say anything, Shi Bing opened the door and entered.

Zhou Yanzhi's face was ugly, and he looked at Shi Bing coldly, "Didn't I say not to disturb me casually?"

Shi Bing's expression was also ugly. He took a deep breath, as if trying to calm down, and after a while, he said slowly, "Young Master Zhou, something happened to Mr. Chen."

"..." Zhou Yanzhi was stunned for a moment, Mr. Chen?

He was a little bewildered.

The brain cells that had been taken over by countless jobs seemed to be on strike. He thought for a while before he remembered who Mr. Chen was talking about.

Zhou Yanzhi raised his head, looked at Shi Bing, and asked in a steady voice, "What's going on?"

Shi Bing held his breath and said slowly, "President Chen... committed suicide."

"..." Zhou Yanzhi didn't say a word, but lowered his head and continued to work.

Shi Bing was also stunned, not quite understanding what was going on, he was standing at the door of the study, not sure whether to leave or stay.

After a while, Zhou Yanzhi raised his head slowly and looked at Shi Bing: "Shi Bing, do you come to see me for something? Didn't I say that no one will disturb me?"

Shi Bing was dumbfounded.

What's going on, Young Master Zhou?Memory backspaced?

"Young Master Zhou, Mr. Chen... committed suicide." Shi Bing said hesitantly.

"Oh." Zhou Yanzhi nodded without any unnecessary reaction.

Shi Bing was quite worried.

Although he couldn't figure out what was going on between his young master Zhou and Chen Youran, Shi Bing could still tell that Zhou Yanzhi was in a bad mood after following Young Master Zhou for so long.

Chen Youran's death might make Zhou Shao even more sad.

After all, Zhou Shao also did something that made everyone unbelievable, that is, through his relationship, Chen Youran was finally sentenced to death with a reprieve.

You must know that it is simply impossible for the Zhou family to do such a thing.

Moreover, Shi Bing also knew that Young Master Zhou obtained a lot of materials in the prison, and even asked him to greet him in various ways, so as not to let Chen Youran suffer too much in prison.

It can be said that with regard to Chen Youran's matter, Zhou Yanzhi has already done what he can bear!

However, after doing so much, Chen Youran committed suicide.

Everything Young Master Zhou did was in vain.

Shi Bing couldn't imagine how strong Zhou Shao's sense of loss would be, and there might be other things.

"You go out first." Zhou Yanzhi whispered.

Shi Bing moved his lips, but he didn't say anything after all, he closed the door slowly and exited the study.

Zhou Yanzhi, who stayed in the study, continued to work.

After processing all the documents on the table, he slowly raised his head and looked at the study door.

Is it the Zhou family who can't do it?Why are there so few recent jobs?

Zhou Yanzhi was very anxious.

Time without work is tough.Why would there be no work?

He directly pressed the shortcut key on the phone: "Shi Bing, are there any unprocessed files?"

Shi Bing, who was on the phone call, paused for a moment before saying: "The recent work has been dealt with."

"Then what about my next itinerary, how do I arrange it?"

"...There is no particularly important itinerary in the near future."

"What's important and what's not?" Zhou Yanzhi said angrily, "Report me all my schedule for the next week! Including the ones you rejected."

"Yes." Shi Bing sadly began to report the itinerary, all kinds of meaningless time-wasting government meetings that would definitely be rejected, and even some local entrepreneur gatherings, etc., "Young Master Zhou, There is no need to go, I just ask the secretary to push it away."

"Go, why don't you go." Zhou Yanzhi made a decision directly, "Also, prepare all the data collected from the seawater desalination project. I will see it tomorrow morning and tell the people below to get ready to start this project."

"Young Master Zhou..." Shi Bing couldn't believe it at all.

The seawater desalination project is quite a huge project. Originally, Zhou Shao said that it would take another year or two to start, but now...

After giving Shi Bing a lesson, it was still dark.

Zhou Yanzhi stood in front of the window sill, looking at the misty night, feeling extremely irritable, no matter what he did, he couldn't calm down.

Uncomfortable, extremely uncomfortable feelings filled his heart.

Chen Youran, are you really dead?

suicide?How dare you use it this way!

Zhou Yanzhi was unwilling to believe that Chen Youran would commit suicide, but when he went to visit him, the expression on his face was so weird, as if he didn't care about life and death at all.

You are not even afraid of death, are you afraid of living?

Or is life scarier than death for you?

Zhou Yanzhi reached out and covered his eyes...

Early the next morning, Zhou Yanzhi came out of the study and went directly to take a shower and change clothes.

When Shi Bing saw Zhou Yan, his heart skipped a beat.

In just one night, Zhou Shao seemed to be a different person.

It seems that overnight, he lost a lot of weight, his face turned pale and ugly, and his eyeballs were bloodshot...

"Young Master Zhou, why don't you take a break, the meeting time is nine o'clock, we still have time..."

"Push it away." Zhou Yanzhi's voice was hoarse and extremely low, "I'm going to see him."

Shi Bing didn't dare to say anything.

Zhou Yanzhi didn't say who he was, but besides Chen Youran, who else could it be?

"Yes, I will arrange it immediately."

For Zhou Yanzhi, it was really not difficult to see Chen Youran, even at this sensitive moment.

He saw him.

He was lying on a medical gurney with white sheets. He seemed to be asleep, very quiet.

There was no usual smile on his face, the corners of his mouth were straight, without any expression, his face was very pale, without any blood.Is this what dead people look like?

Zhou Yanzhi turned back to Shi Bing and said, "Bring me some towels and a basin of warm water."

He seems to remember that he is afraid of the cold, even in the south like City Z, when the lowest temperature in winter is not lower than ten degrees, he will wear thick clothes, just like in the north, he can be recognized at a glance in the crowd come out with him.

The doctor said he committed suicide by taking medicine.No one knows how he brought in the banned drugs or how he committed suicide.

Maybe it was because he couldn't control his body when he was about to die, he fell to the ground, some skin was rubbed off his face, there were bloodshot eyes, and dust...

Zhou Yanzhi slowly wiped his face with a towel soaked in warm water...

This face is always smiling.

Even if he gave him countless cold faces and looked at him with contempt, he still kept smiling at him.

Is it just that you love to laugh?

Love to laugh why don't you keep laughing?

Do you know how ugly you look now?
