The annual meeting was very lively. All the employees of the company headquarters in S City were present. The banquet hall was grandly and warmly decorated. Zuo Chi gave an opening speech, thanking everyone for their hard work in the past year, and looking forward to a new year. As a result, he spoke into the microphone without any haste, without any stage fright.

Standing on the stage, his gaze wandered through the crowd, just in time to catch Sheng Changyu and Li Mingchuan walking in from the door hand in hand.

Sheng Li didn't come.

He was not very surprised, but there was still a moment of loss in his heart.

Zuo Chi's speech was concise and concise, which did not waste everyone's time.There was applause from the audience, and Zuo Chi's subordinates took advantage of the chaos and shouted Zuo Chi's name to express their support.

Next, various departments performed performances one by one, including singing, dancing, and talk shows. After the performance, everyone had dinner together, and there was a lottery and awarding session in the middle. The winning rate was high and the prizes were plentiful.

It was only at the end of the dinner that Zuo Yi stepped onto the stage and announced that he had reached a friendly cooperative relationship with the Sheng family.Sheng Changyu and Li Mingchuan also came to the stage and said a few words briefly.

Before this, many employees heard rumors that Zuo Chi and Sheng Li were about to get engaged, they quietly looked at Zuo Chi, Zuo Chi pretended not to notice, and stared straight ahead.

After Sheng Changyu and Li Mingchuan finished talking, he walked over to say hello: "Hello, Uncle, Hello, Uncle."

Sheng Changyu smiled at him: "Xiaochi, have you been busy with work recently?"

Zuo Chi: "Fortunately, it will be easier for a while after the busy work at the end of the year."

Li Mingchuan: "Seeing that you've lost weight again, it's time to pay attention to your health. I have some Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng in the car. I'll go get them together later."

Zuo Chi said, "Thank you, Uncle."

Sheng Changyu took the initiative to explain: "I'm going to call Sheng Li together today. He has something to do with work temporarily. It's rare for him to be serious about his work, so I'll let him go. Don't mind."

"It's okay, I understand." He knew that this was Sheng Li's excuse to hide from him.

Work?After a year and a half of fishing in troubled waters in the company, but they have something to deal with when it's their annual meeting?

Sheng Li probably hasn't figured out how to face him yet.

Sheng Changyu patted him on the shoulder: "On the 31st, come to our house to have a New Year's Eve together?"

Zuo Chi smiled and replied, "Okay."

On Saturday, Zuo Chi rarely worked overtime, and was going to read a book at home, but he couldn't concentrate, and he always forgot what the chapters in the book were about when he read it, and his thoughts drifted to Sheng Li.

Coincidentally, Cheng Xiangwan called to invite him to go shopping together, saying that he needed new equipment for the New Year, Zuo Chi felt that it would be better to find something to do by himself, so he agreed.

Cheng Xiangwan's combat effectiveness in shopping was very strong, Zuo Chi followed him with his shopping bags, and walked from the first floor to the fourth floor.The combination of the two is very eye-catching, and passers-by frequently turn their heads to look at it.

Zuo Chi glanced at the time, two hours had passed since they stepped into the gate of the mall: "Cheng Xiangwan, you've already bought three bags, two coats and one pair of trousers."

"Is there a lot? The year-end bonus will be issued soon, so spend it in advance." Cheng Xiangwan entered an original jewelry store and picked out a bite-resistant collar with rivets and metal chains.He picked it up and gestured to the mirror, "Isn't it sexy?"

Zuo Chi reached out and touched the material: "Don't you usually only use shielding stickers?"

Cheng Xiangwan said, "I bought it for you."

Zuo Chi raised his eyebrows: "Send me?"

"Your birthday is coming up, give it a try." Cheng Xiangwan was afraid that Zuo Chi would not accept him, so he blocked the conversation, "You're welcome, you have to give me a more expensive one on my birthday."

Zuo Chi's birthday is in January, so it's not long.He hesitated: "Is this one too ostentatious?"

"No." Cheng Xiangwan untied Zuo Chi's collar, put on a new one, and lifted the round mirror on the table.

The skin on Zuo Chi's neck is delicate, like pure white porcelain, and the perfect shoulder and neck line highlights the temperament.The collar was worn around his neck, making him cold and seductive.As he looked sideways at the mirror, the metal chains made a clashing sound, and he was like a dangerous work of art.

"Fuck." Cheng Xiangwan exclaimed, "If I were an Alpha, I wouldn't be able to hold on."

Zuo Chi: "...What nonsense."

The waiter saw the opportunity and came over to introduce him, and praised Zuo Chiyitong: "Sir, this anti-bite collar can prevent Alpha canines from entering in all directions and protect your glands. It is designed by a top domestic designer and has a unique style. It fits perfectly."

After Zuo Chi took off the collar, Cheng Xiangwan asked the waiter to wrap it up without hesitation, and paid quickly.

The gift box containing the collar was exquisite, and Zuo Chi said sincerely, "Thank you."

"Don't thank me, I'll see you later." Cheng Xiangwan suggested going to the lower floor to buy two cups of fruit tea and take a break, "How do you plan to spend your birthday?"

Zuo Chi didn't feel much about celebrating birthdays. He always felt that birthdays should be celebrated as usual, and there was no need to make special arrangements.

But Sheng Li doesn't think so, he always feels that birthday is a day that comes into the world and needs to be celebrated, and living alone is a bit bleak.Therefore, after Zuo Chi met Sheng Li, every birthday of his had a shadow of Sheng Li.When he was young, he bought cakes and ate them together. When he grew up, Sheng Li would help him organize parties or prepare a "surprise" for him.

In junior high school, Zuo Chi liked to play basketball, and Sheng Li paid a high price to get a limited-edition sneaker signed by Zuo Chi's favorite star.Those shoes are still in Zuo Chi's bedroom drawer, and he hasn't worn them once.

Sheng Li laughed at his fan mentality and cherished the sneakers as treasures. He did not refute, but in fact he regarded the sneakers as treasures not because of the signature on them, but because the sneakers were given to him by Sheng Li.

In high school, an author Zuo Chi liked went to S City to hold a new book signing event, but he couldn't go because he had to participate in a national competition. Sheng Li skipped class and went for him, and even helped the author write on the title page. Happy birthday.

"Happy birthday to A Chi, remember to smile more." The words are written by the author, and the words are what Sheng Li wants to say.

Sheng Li is the only one called Zuo Chi "A Chi".

In college, Sheng Li wore a thick doll costume and sang happy birthday to him... Scenes were played back in Zuo Chi's mind, touching his sensitive nerves.This is not what it used to be, and there may be no "surprise" this year.

"I didn't think about it." Zuo Chi pretended to be calm, "That day was Wednesday, I should spend it at the company."

"Tsk." Cheng Xiangwan asked, "What gift did Sheng Li give you?"

Zuo Chi didn't answer.

Cheng Xiangwan: "If he doesn't take the initiative to give it away, you can ask him for it."

Zuo Chi: "I don't lack anything."

"Stupid." Cheng Xiangwan said, "Who said it has to be material things."

Whether it was before or after the differentiation, as a descendant of the Zuo family, Zuo Chi had never been wronged in material matters, nor did he have a particularly large need for material things.

What he wants is very simple - like many birthdays in the past, Sheng Li will accompany him to celebrate.As long as Sheng Li is with him, even a day of doing nothing is worthwhile.

He and Cheng Xiangwan separated after eating at the restaurant, Zuo Chi drove back and passed by Sheng Li's house, he couldn't resist stopping the car to look for him.

He has never been a very patient person. Once he has a goal, he will be eager to achieve it. His most patience is on Sheng Li, which is why he has been secretly in love with Sheng Li for so many years.

He can't always wait.

Zuo Chi rang the doorbell, but no one answered, took out the key, but couldn't open the door.He couldn't believe it, and tried again unwillingly, but the result was the same.

Sheng Li actually changed the lock.

To avoid his harassment, Sheng Li changed the lock.

How could Sheng Li do that?

In an instant, Zuo Chi seemed to be in an ice cellar, his whole body was chilled, and he hammered at the door hard as if venting. A pain spread from his knuckles, but he seemed to be unable to feel it, and hit it with his fist again.

Was the locked door that couldn't be opened the answer Sheng Li gave him?

Sheng Li is not at home, maybe he is having a party with Tai Xingyu and the others, maybe he is drinking and having fun with a group of friends, maybe he is walking to the hotel with an Omega in his arms...

It has nothing to do with Zuo Chi.

What is he?

Zuo Chi sat down on the steps at the door, his whole body became stiff.If Zuo Yi hadn't called and asked him to go to the police station to bring Zuo Lie out, he might have sat down forever.

Zuo Chi learned about the situation on the way to the police station.Zuo Lie was speeding in his sports car and collided with other cars. The collision was not serious, but the two of them fought each other and went to the police station.

Because it was Zuo Lie who made the first move, if the other party refused to reconcile privately, according to the punishment of public security management, he would be detained for five to ten days.

Zuo Chi wished that Zuo Lie would be detained for a few days, but when he arrived at the police station, he and the lawyer sent by Zuo Yi still found another car owner to negotiate.

No one will have trouble with money, and the other party quickly agreed to a settlement.

Zuo Chi was angry, and when he saw Zuo Lie's indifferent appearance, he became even more angry. He pointed the camera at Zuo Lie's injured face and took a photo with the name of the police station on the background.

Because the camera function of the mobile phone is rarely used on weekdays, the mobile phone makes a "click" sound when taking pictures.Zuo Lie stood up excitedly: "What are you doing!"

"Brother, your stupid behavior has delayed my time for an hour and 23 minutes... Now it is an hour and 24 minutes." Zuo Chi whispered in Zuo Lie's ear, "I have no obligation to help you, just look at you This appearance is not calm at all, not like the successor of the Zuo family."

"What are you doing today..." Zuo Lie was stunned for a moment. Normally, as long as he didn't take the initiative to provoke Zuo Chi, Zuo Chi wouldn't speak ill of him, "So what if I don't look like you, no matter how much you look like you."

Zuo Chi stared at him coldly, that look made Zuo Lie feel like a poisonous snake sticking out its tongue to lick his cheek.

He said, "Zuo Lie, please do it yourself."

Zuo Chi is not a fool, this matter does not require him to come forward at all, Zuo Yi may want to put pressure on Zuo Lie through him, or maybe he just wants to control him and remind him to assist Zuo Lie to become a qualified leader.

Either way, it made him feel extremely bored.
