reborn heir

Zhang Jian has been living in trepidation recently. The invitation to invite the boss to his wedding ceremony has been in the drawer for several days, but he dare not take it out.

Just look at the dark clouds hanging over each colleague's head to see how bad the boss is.

The manager of the financial department came to hand in the financial report of this quarter, but the folder was dropped by the boss in person, and then he was called into the office by the boss seven times in one day. The manager who is usually chubby and smiling like a Maitreya Buddha does not even need makeup when he gets off work You can play Yang Zhi.

There was an intern in the reception department, who was about to become a full-time employee, but the boss found out that the instant noodles in the office smelled too strong in the morning, and after paying the internship salary, he went home crying with his things in his arms.

Even the security guy downstairs was not spared. Because the uniform and tie were not fastened properly, which damaged the corporate image, the boss criticized the security team by name at the meeting that morning.

The list goes on and on.

Moreover, this situation has been going on for half a month, and the company has been rumored that the boss intends to save resources and streamline the staff, and now it is just to vaccinate them.

Many colleagues secretly came to Zhang Jian to inquire: What happened to the boss?Zhang Jian said with a wry smile many times, "I don't know too well, but you'd better be careful and ask for blessings."

There is only one truth, but he cannot tell it.The furthest distance in the world is not between life and death, but that you know the secret but you can't tell it.

Do you want him to tell everyone that the relationship between the boss and his son is not going well and use you as a blowing bucket! ? ! ? ! ?

Zhang Jian secretly looked at the boss who was bowing his head to sign, thought about it, and said cautiously: "Mr. Zhou, next Tuesday..."

Zhou Ren suddenly raised his head to stare at him, Zhang Jian froze: "Uh..."

Zhou Ren moved his gaze to the calendar on the table and said, "I almost forgot, thank you."

Zhang Jian: "..." That day was his wedding day, the boss seems to understand that the posture is not right, what should I do? !

Zhou Ren handed back the signed documents to him, and bowed his head again.Zhang Jian hesitated, took the documents and went out.

After a while, Zhou Ren took the desk calendar, drew a circle on the date of next Tuesday with a pen, and marked it with "son's birthday".

After setting up the desk calendar, he also noted the day on his phone, then returned to the desktop, clicked on the call history, and eight days had passed since Zeyan called him last time.

This is not a big deal.

Twelve days have passed since the last time Zeyan had the cheek to kiss goodbye before going out in the morning.

Seventeen days have passed since the last time Zeyan groped into his room in the middle of the night after taking a shower.

These are too unusual, and directly lead to Zhou Ren's mood getting worse day by day.

He thought about it for a long time, and suspected that he was not doing well enough, so Zeyan deliberately showed his temper to him, but he couldn't figure out what went wrong.

In a few days it will be the birthdays of the two brothers, why not buy a gift to coax them, but what should I buy?Zeyan's taste is not ordinary - when Zhou Ren celebrated his birthday last year, he still remembers the weird cat ear dress.

Zhou Ren leaned back on the back of the chair, lost in thought with a blank expression.

Outside the glass partition window of the office, the employees immediately rushed to tell each other in fear: Be careful!The boss is trying to figure out who to attack next!

Zhou Ren sat behind his desk with a cold face, recalling all the birthday presents he gave Zeyan in the past, such as balls, toy guns and [-]x[-]s when he was a child, and NBA jerseys, game simulators and various models of aircraft carriers and warships after middle school.In the past, when the father and son were at odds, Zeyan would smile in front of Zhou Ren almost only on this day in a year.

Isn't it just to make his son smile because he has chosen carefully for so long?Fortunately, for several years, he thought that Zeyan didn't like to laugh, which was very similar to him.

My eyes were really blurred by that.

Having said that, this year's gift is very important, he thought vaguely happily, this is Zeyan's first birthday after he and Zeyan established another layer of intimacy other than the father-son relationship.

On such a commemorative day, a more ingenious gift should be given, preferably one that can make Zeyan "hum" in his mind and immediately burst into tears.

But choosing a gift is really, really nerve-wracking.What should I give away?

He was a little annoyed, and he was even more annoyed when he thought that Zeyan hadn't bothered him for seventeen days.He knows Zeyan's enthusiasm for this kind of thing better than anyone else. Last time, he cried because he didn't do it for two days. How did he hold back this time?

And it's really annoying how long it lasted.

It wasn't until after get off work that all the employees breathed a sigh of relief. When they left the company, everyone had an expression of "I can finally go home alive QAQ" on their faces.

Zhang Jian bit the bullet and went to Zhou Ren, handed over the invitation, and invited Zhou Ren to attend his wedding.

Zhou Ren looked surprised and said, "Why have you never heard of getting married?"

Zhang Jian said with some embarrassment: "The decision made during the Spring Festival, you will always be busy after the year, so I didn't say it in advance."

After the Spring Festival, the city hall project undertaken by the company broke ground, and Zhang Jian followed Zhou Ren to the construction site.Zhou Ren is busy, which means that he is also very busy. He probably has to wait until after get off work to rush to prepare for the wedding, and he doesn't know how many smiling faces he has to accompany his fiancee.Zhang Jian's fiancée, Zhou Ren, has also met her. She is steady and stable, and she is a good match for Zhang Jian.

Zhou Ren thought for a while, and said: "The annual leave is passed in advance, combined with the marriage leave, you have 45 days off."

Zhang Jian said in surprise: "Ah? Really?!"

Zhou Rendao: "Think it's too long?"

Zhang Jian hurriedly shook his head: "No, no, no! Thank you, Mr. Zhou!"

He said goodbye to Zhou Ren and left work with a smile on his face.

Zhou Ren thought silently, let's pick a wedding gift for Zhang Jian by the way.

Zhou Zexu was thrown by Zhou Ren to work as a supervisor on the construction site, and he was disgraced every day when he returned home.He came out after taking a shower and changed his clothes. Seeing that Zhou Ren was still sitting alone in the living room, he asked, "Has my brother not come back yet?"

Zhou Ren said: "Yes."

Zhou Zexu wondered, "Why doesn't he come back for dinner recently? What's he busy with?"

Zhou Ren said dumbly, "I don't know."

Zhou Zexu sat on another sofa and gossiped, "Did you two quarrel?" He was very busy during this period, and he didn't have much time to meet his father and brother, so naturally he didn't realize that there was something wrong with these two.

Zhou Ren shook his head: "No."

Zhou Zexu squinted his eyes, smiled and said, "Dad, you have to be careful. My brother's confidante outside can load several trucks and always come home late. It's really hard to say."

Zhou Ren glanced at him coldly, thinking to himself, why are you so annoying.

Zhou Zexu spoke more and more vigorously: "Not only the beauty, but also the blue face, he is too attractive..."

Zhou Ren suddenly said: "Bai Kun liked him before, I know this."

Zhou Ze continued: "..."

Zhou Ren stood up and called the servant: "Sister Wang, let's serve dinner."

Zhou Zexu blinked vigorously, who is sowing discord? ? ?Dad must have taken the wrong script! ! !

At 27:[-] p.m., Zhou Zeyan entered the house.

Zhou Ren sat at the desk, listening to the voice downstairs, Zeyan greeted the servant, went up to the second floor, walked through the corridor, passed by his door, entered the baby's room, laughed and teased the child, came out of the baby's room, passed by again The door of Zhou Ren's room stopped diagonally opposite, opened and closed the door.

At eleven o'clock in the evening, the Zhou family was silent.Zhou Ren sitting at the desk almost became a monument.

He's a little angry, it's been No. 18 days.

The next day was Friday, and Zhang Jian was very happy because he was approved to extend the wedding leave yesterday. When he saw Zhou Ren, he immediately put away his smiling face, sneakily sent invitations to various departments, and asked everyone to wish him well Don't be too loud.

The boss's expression is clearly four characters: desire, begging, no, full.

Showing sweetness and affection at this time is the rhythm of courting death every minute!

When getting off work at noon, Zhang Jian cautiously knocked on the door of Zhou Ren's office, and asked, "Mr. Zhou, is lunch in the restaurant or outside? Do you want to help you locate a place?"

Zhou Ren took his coat and put it on, and said, "No, I'm going out for a while."

Zhang Jian dutifully said: "Director Zhang from the Construction Committee will come over this afternoon, and the time is very tight at noon, where are you going?"

Zhou Ren buttoned his button and said, "I'm going to school in time."

Zhang Jianfu was in his heart, of course he guessed what Zhou Ren was going to do, and immediately showed a sudden smile.

Zhou Ren looked at him coldly: "What are you laughing at?"

Zhang Jian shook his head vigorously: "No."

Zhou Ren took the car keys and said coldly, "I guess, you still think the marriage leave is too long."

Zhang Jian: "..." Kneel down to the boss, okay? ! !He no longer speculates on the boss's mind! ! !

When Zhou Ren arrived at the gate of B, he just heard the bell for the end of get out of class from the campus, and groups of energetic students came out of the school gate.

Foreign vehicles are not allowed to enter the campus, so Zhou Ren parked his car in the parking space outside the door and got out of the car.

The students in the past gave Zhou Ren a lot of attention. If Zhou Ren's iceberg aura was not too strong, someone might have gone up to talk to him.

Zhou Ren dialed Zeyan's number twice in a row, but no one answered.He frowned, unhappy.Zeyan went out early in the morning, and Zhou Ren didn't even see his face.

At this time, someone shouted in surprise: "Uncle Zhou?"

Zhou Ren raised his head and looked over. He remembered this round-cut guy with big eyes, surnamed Chen, but his name was unclear.

Chen Peiyuan squeezed through the crowd and walked up to Zhou Ren, and said in surprise, "It's really you! Uh... are you here to see Zhou Zexu?"

Zhou Ren nodded. He didn't like his son's classmate very much, because the first impression he had was negative infinite points.

However, the image of his facial paralysis is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Chen Peiyuan didn't think much about it: "Is it because no one answered his phone? When I came out, I saw him go to the cafeteria. The cafeteria is so noisy that I can't hear the phone ringing."

Zhou Ren put the phone back and looked up at the school gate.

Chen Peiyuan rubbed his nose and asked Ying, "How about I take you to the cafeteria to find him?"

Zhou Rendao: "I don't bother you anymore, I will find it myself."

Chen Peiyuan waved his hand and said, "No trouble, no trouble. I'm going home. There are no classes in the afternoon. There are several cafeterias in our school. It may not be easy for you to find them. I know where he often sits."

Chen Peiyuan took Zhou Ren into the school gate, about 10 minutes away from the cafeteria, and it was the first time he realized that the distance was so long.Embarrassed, he didn't know what to say, so he had nothing to say, and asked, "Uncle Zhou, what's the rush you came to see him?"

Zhou Ren said: "No."

Chen Peiyuan laughed dryly, and after half a minute, he looked for something to say: "Actually, Zexu often talks about you."

Although Zhou Ren still had a cold face, he was obviously interested in this sentence and asked, "What did he say about me?"

Chen Peiyuan immediately cheered up: "He admires you very much, and often talks about you, saying that you are the number one in the universe... Good father, hehe." The sentence "My dad is the most tyrannical bully in the universe" came out smoothly.Dad Zhou is so serious, how could Zhou Zexu grow up like that? This is totally against genetic science, right?

Zhou Ren remained silent, the best dad in the universe? !Hmph, not happy.

The ninth canteen of University B was full of people, Chen Peiyuan stood at the door, pointed to the corner next to the guide, and shouted, "Look! Zhou Zexu is there!"

Of course Zhou Ren saw it.

Zhou Zeyan was not eating with chopsticks in his hand, chatting excitedly with the person next to him.It was a girl with a ponytail, her face could not be seen, but she had a slim figure and a pretty face when viewed from the side.

Chen Peiyuan continued to shout: "You wait here for a while! I'll go in and call him!" He squeezed over there with difficulty.

Zhou Ren stood at the door and watched, the girl was not dressed fancy, unlike the girls Zeyan had befriended in the past, she was just a classmate, right?

At this time, Zhou Zeyan accidentally got a few grains of rice stuck to his hands, the girl came out with a wet wipe, held his wrist to help him wipe it off, and the two of them looked at each other and smiled.Some students who had no friends of the opposite sex cast envious glances.

Zhou Ren: "..." His mood will not get better in the future.

Chen Peiyuan finally squeezed to the side of the table, patted Zhou Zeyan on the shoulder, and pointed to the door.

Zhou Zeyan looked over blankly, his expression changed, and he stood up.The girl next to him also looked over and blushed immediately.

Zhou Ren thought indifferently, why would she blush?Most girls blushing is good-looking, but this is not good-looking no matter how you look at it.

Coming out of the cafeteria, Chen Peiyuan wisely left first.

The father and son stood outside the cafeteria, and Zhou Zeyan asked, "What happened? Why did you come to me suddenly?"

Zhou Ren didn't speak, his eyes were lowered, he stared at his son's wrist for a moment, and then said: "Next Monday is your brother's birthday."

Zhou Zeyan blinked, looking forward to it, "Well, what's wrong?"

Zhou Renmu said with a straight face: "Ze Xu hasn't celebrated his birthday in eight years, I want to give him some special gifts, and I'm here to ask your opinion."

Zhou Zeyan's face was full of resentment and inexplicable, he held his breath and said, "You came all the way here just to ask this?"

Zhou Rendao: "What should I give him?"

Zhou Zeyan was furious, and after a while he said coldly: "You owe him a tablet, pick a good one and give it to him." [Note 1] Zhou Ren nodded and said, "Okay. I'm leaving."

Zhou Zeyan: "!!!" He couldn't help but get angry and said, "Stop making trouble! What are you doing here?!"

Zhou Ren stared at his face intently, and said slowly: "You remember to prepare a gift for him too, be careful."

Zhou Zeyan: "..." Without a word, he turned back to the cafeteria with smoke coming from his head.

Zhou Ren returned to the car, rubbed his stiff face, and suddenly felt that it was meaningless.

This time he is probably about to lose love.

Young people have no sex, especially his eldest son, since he was a child.More than ten years ago, the Zhou family raised a rabbit. Zeyan liked it very much. He would feed it and eat grass every day when he came back from school. He even wanted to hug it to sleep at night. It looked like a baby, and Zeyan couldn’t even touch it. .After more than half a month, his novelty wore off, and he became obsessed with other things again.

Zhou Ren remembered that the rabbit in the cage looked at Zeyan eagerly, as if it was still waiting for him to feed and hug it.

But until it was given to others by Zhou's mother, Zeyan never thought of it again.
