Cold violence

Today was the first time that Zhou Yu was late since the first day of work, and everyone in the company felt a little strange.

The night before because of He Chu's arrival, Zhou Yu couldn't fall asleep for a long time, and his heart was in a mess until 05:30 before he felt a little drowsy. Unexpectedly, he fell asleep until 07:30.

His home is not very close, so it was almost 08:30 when he arrived.

In fact, as the boss of the company, it's no big deal if he doesn't come to the company, but Zhou Yu adhered to the principle of "never be late and leave early", so he insisted on coming to the company.

When they arrived at the company, everyone was already busy. Zhou Yu was quite satisfied with this, but couldn't help feeling a little annoyed at his lateness.

Little did they know that except for Zhou Yu, everyone in the company felt relieved that he was late this time.

These days when I return to China, the boss has 30 days a month, and I wish I could rush to work at the company at 31:07 for 30 days. The earliest one goes to the last one every day, rain or shine. Can catch late employees.

The employees on duty are conscientious and only hate that the boss can't be late once when he gets sick.

The old employees are already used to Zhou Yu's style. When he was abroad a few years ago, the newly appointed president acted vigorously and unambiguously, not at all like a young man in his early twenties. One's own requirements are even higher, in order to convince the people below.

The new employee wants the boss to be late because he is miserable, and the old employee wants the boss to rest because he feels sorry for the boss.

The boss was late for no reason today, and all the staff in the company wanted to send a congratulatory message to the boss.

——Congratulations to the boss for being late for work for the first time.

Half of the reason is because I don't have to wake myself up abruptly by seeing the indifferent handsome face of the boss when I am still drowsy, and the other half is because I am glad that the boss finally knows to rest.

Zhou Yu has become more and more good-looking over the years. Many girls in the company call themselves "face fans" and "mother fans". Girlfriend fans don't dare, because the boss is too aloof. Maybe one day they will hear that they are being raped by others. Called "Husband", waved his big hand and everyone collectively left.

But there is another reason why Zhou Yu doesn't have a girlfriend fan... Back when he was abroad, at a company meeting, the boss announced his orientation... all his girlfriend fans turned into mother fans.

But this does not hinder the enthusiasm of "fans" for him, after all, no one can resist a handsome face dangling in front of him every day.

However, Zhou Yu actually knew about this matter. He had just taken office at that time, and one time when he was working overtime, he saw a female secretary holding a mobile phone and chatting about this matter in a WeChat group. He made public his orientation, and didn't mean to hide it at all.

One or two want to become Mrs. Zhou if they don't work hard?Then just reject it outright.

As soon as Zhou Yu arrived at the company today, the female secretary greeted her. Zhou Yu was about to explain all the matters of the day to her, but this capable professional elite showed his embarrassment.

"what happened?"

The female secretary hesitated, and Zhou Yu watched for a long time before he hesitated and said, "Mr. Zhou, someone came to see you today."

"Looking for me?" Zhou Yu frowned.

This has been a subconscious action he has developed over the years, because for so long, anyone who wants to meet him has to make an appointment, but the secretary did not mention this matter the day before, and he felt a little strange for no reason. great.

He walked into the elevator and asked, "Did you say what it was called?"

He is actually not in a very good mood right now. He didn't sleep last night. He woke up this morning and drank a cup of coffee to refresh himself. At this moment, his stomach is hurting again. In addition to the person who hasn't shown up yet, he has a vague guess. So the frown deepened.

"He said his surname was He."

The secretary stood behind him, holding the thick document in his hand, and stared closely at Zhou Yu's expression.

"He Chu?"

He was not surprised to hear the name.

Naturally, everyone just met yesterday, and now when this surname is mentioned, it is easy to think of that person. He looked at the secretary's expression and knew it in his heart.

It really was He Chu.

There are only so many people with the surname He in the circle, and those who can find them directly must be dignitaries in the circle, and the secretary naturally knows them.

"What is he doing here?"

"Mr. He said that he verbally made an appointment with you yesterday. We are not sure whether this is true or not."

The female secretary was a little guilty when she said this. When He Chu came over, she went straight to Zhou Yu's office without even saying hello. At that time, she almost made a small basket to stop He Chu.

"Then why didn't you call me?"

"I... I'm sorry, Mr. Zhou, it's my fault."

The secretary lowered her head. She couldn't say that everyone in the company, including herself, was very happy that Zhou Yu didn't come to work today, so she expected him to arrive later...

"He hasn't asked me out with you, so can you just put him there?"

He lowered his head and glanced at the secretary, only to see that his secretary's face was even more "unspeakable", as if there was something difficult to say, and he said, "Say what you have to say."

The secretary hesitated for a moment, this is the first time this strong woman has shown such an expression since Zhou Yu came to power, with a bit of entanglement and embarrassment, but I have to say, the complexion is very ugly.

But the face of the boss...

She took a deep breath, and decided to confess that "basket" to Zhou Yu:

"It was because he... said he was your boyfriend... He was at the front desk at the time, and there were a lot of people coming to work. We were not sure if it was true, but we didn't want to expose your privacy... so we took him Went to your office."

"..."

Zhou Yu suddenly fell silent when he heard the word "boyfriend".

Because speechless.

Zhou Yu was studying abroad and had been working abroad for the past few years. The branch office was transferred to China not long ago. The folk customs abroad are relatively open. The grassroots employees here may not know it, but his sexual orientation has long been known in the circle. It's no secret.

But He Chu was the first one who dared to say that he was his boyfriend.

He really didn't expect that after so many years in He Chu, his skin would become thick instead of thin...

They are already sitting in this kind of seat, but they are still so speechless.

But he changed his mind, didn't He Chu look like this when he was the squad leader?Abandoning the body to stalk and beat all kinds of shameless.

The air was quiet for a while, Zhou Yu looked at the numbers scrolling continuously on the elevator screen, and suddenly asked, "Don't you know if I have a boyfriend?"

After he finished speaking, he strode out of the elevator without waiting for the secretary's answer.

The secretary hurriedly followed Zhou Yu out, feeling a little ashamed.

——she really doesn't know.

He is just a secretary. The person who really takes care of the boss's affairs is the person who has been by his side since college.

Zhou Yu stood at the door of his office, looking at the leisurely "uninvited guest" with a deep expression.

Standing behind the boss, the secretary looked at the boss's "suspected boyfriend", and was suddenly in a dilemma.

At this time... When the boss is obviously a little unhappy, do you want to go up and say hello?But will this offend the boss?

But...the boss has worked for so many years, and finally found a "boyfriend"... The gossip mentality of women made him a little reluctant to leave.

But at this time, the uninvited guest didn't consider the secretary's thoughts.

He Chu was sitting in front of Zhou Yu's reception table, fiddling with his expensive set of antique purple clay teapots, as if he was at home.

Hearing footsteps, he turned his head and smiled at Zhou Yu: "Come?"

He said this in a tone as if he was the owner of this office, Zhou Yu forced a "polite but awkward" smile, and sat across from He Chu: "Mr. ?”

"Is it still early? Don't you usually arrive at the company at 07:30? It's already nine o'clock now." He said, pouring a cup of tea for Zhou Yu, "Lapsang Souchong, I made it, it must be better Your secretary is doing well."

After finishing speaking, he glanced behind Zhou Yu and winked at the female secretary.

Zhou Yu stared at the tea He Chu handed over, and the corners of his eyes twitched.

Xin said that you really don't regard yourself as an outsider, and you even found out the tea leaves I put away, which is really capable.

He waved his hand towards the door, and the secretary closed the door tactfully. Then he took a sip from his cup, and then looked at He Chu expressionlessly.

It's only natural for someone to entertain you in your own office.

He Chu looked at him with a smile, "It's delicious".

Zhou Yu didn't say a word as if he couldn't see his expression.

Then he remembered an unimportant thing.When He Chu came this morning, it was almost an hour after he sent the text message to He Chu came over. It was almost two o'clock when He Chu returned. He Chu should have come to the company to wait for him after seven o'clock. , why don't you see him a little bit sleepy?

Wait, he actually knows what time he goes to work? !

Zhou Yu couldn't help but want to help his forehead.

Why, when I was with He Chu, I couldn't grasp the point?

In the past, he often made this kind of mistake. His focus is always on some small details, and sometimes it is easy to ignore what others really want to express, although sometimes it is a very touching thing to grasp the details. things, but if you can't grasp the key points after a long time, it's easy for people to doubt whether this person cares about you.

Tsk...why did I start thinking about these things again?

"You haven't answered my question yet, what can I do for you?" He collected himself, put down the cup, sat on the chair and looked at him expressionlessly.

"Didn't you answer my question, is it good to drink, huh?" He Chu slowly brewed the tea, and the technique was actually very skillful.

"This is my office."

So I have the right to choose not to answer your question.

He really didn't save any face for He Chu.

"It's okay, I just came to talk to you."

He Chu didn't mind his attitude. Instead, he poured himself a cup of tea and helped Zhou Yu refill the tea. Before he could speak, he explained why he came: "I came to chase you."

Hearing what he said, Zhou Yu sneered, the laughter was soft, but it was like the cold wind in winter: "Frivolity, Mr. He, I don't think we need to establish other relationships other than business partners."

"Why isn't it necessary?" He Chu's smile paused, and then he smiled brighter: "You kissed me yesterday."

"Correction, it was this morning."

Zhou Yu said coldly: "Also, that kind of kiss doesn't prove anything. If you need me to do it again to prove that I don't have feelings for you, it's okay."

"Okay, then you come."

He Chu leaned on the sofa generously, waiting for Zhou Yu to carry out what he said.

He saw Zhou Yu stand up expressionlessly, step over the coffee table and stand in front of him, staring at him without saying a word.

There were still red bloodshot eyes left after staying up late last night in his eyes, and the corners of his eyes were still a little wet, which made people want to move.

He Chu smiled and licked his lips.

"What do you think this can prove? He Chu."

But in the end, Zhou Yu still didn't bend down as He Chu wished, but just looked down at this old man with a flattering face.

Why did He Chu become like this?

After all these years he found himself again and told himself that he had always liked him.

The indifference and disgust that once appeared on this face have disappeared now, and have become full of tenderness.

Give a slap and a sweet date?

The sweet date was given a little late.

"Even if I can't prove anything, I want to kiss you. Mr. Zhou, the door is closed now."

As he spoke, he stood up and pushed Zhou Yu to the side door, wrapping him into the small space formed by his two arms.

"This is my office. Do you think it's appropriate to do this kind of thing to me in your capacity, Mr. He?" Zhou Yu glanced at the seat where He Chu was sitting just now, and there was a document lying quietly beside him, " Since we want to talk about things, aren't we afraid of being rumored if we do such a thing?"

"Why are you afraid, Mr. Zhou? Didn't you tell your orientation in the company very early on? Isn't it normal for us to be together now?" He Chu leaned forward and whispered: "The newly appointed president is with a well-known businessman... Isn't it very touching?"

"Oh, so what if it's made public? I choose people to like it."

"Doesn't Zhou always like my dignified appearance?" After he finished speaking, he let go of his arms and politely pushed back a step.

"Your behavior makes you a brute at best."

"You can't accept being a beast in clothes?"

Zhou Yu looked at this "beast in clothes" and finally smiled and said, "Yeah, I can't accept it." Then he walked behind the desk and motioned He Chu to sit down in front of him: "Since you're here, let's do business." , Mr. He."

He said "Mr. He" one by one, making clear the meaning of alienation.

After hitting a snag, He Chu felt a little pain in his head, but he also knew that Zhou Yu might really get angry if he continued talking.

So he withdrew his playful smile, picked up the document and sat down in front of Zhou Yu, and once again looked carefully at the carefully crafted person in front of him.

The aura on his body is not the same as before. The young man who used to be extremely indifferent in front of others but a little cautious in front of him has now become one of the best new stars in the business circle. He stands at the top of the industry and looks down from the highest posture. Looking at the people in the audience.

His eyes, which used to always contain stars, are now surrounded by real ice and snow.

But the only thing to be thankful for is that something in his bones has not changed. If Zhou Yu had accepted He Chu's kiss just now, He Chu would have felt uncomfortable.

His Zhou Yu has never been a casual person.

Thinking of this, he wanted to smile bitterly again, Zhou Yu was no longer his.

He started to pay attention to Zhou Yu when he first emerged in the business circle. He had a very high starting point and immediately put himself on the cusp of the storm. It was also at that time that He Chu knew that Zhou Yu was the one People from the Zhou family.

He watched Zhou Yu walk along the way, his temperament gradually settled, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.

Because along the way, Zhou Yu was alone.

He knew that Zhou Yu was never afraid of being alone, but he felt sorry for him.

In front of him is the person he has been thinking about for so many years, even if they are separated from each other in the past seven years, they can't stop his thinking.

He knows that he hurt him deeply back then, and now he wants to make up for him.

But he also knew that recovering Zhou Yu was not such an easy task.

He Chu will never forget how he treated Zhou Yu back then, and Zhou Yu will never forget the pain. If he doesn't say anything, neither of them will act as if they don't know.

He settled down and began to explain his purpose.

If he wants to get Zhou Yu back, he will do what he says.

Zhou Yu watched him spread out the documents and explained the contents of his proposal.

He Chu wanted to cooperate with him.

But it's not so much a cooperation, it's better to say that He Chu came back to give him money.

He just opened the company back to China, so it's a great shortcut to cooperate with He Chu, and it can even make him a lot of money, not to mention that He Chu's offer is so attractive.

There seems to be a faint tea fragrance remaining between the lips and teeth.

Then he realized belatedly that the cup of tea just now seemed to be different from the one made by his assistant.

But the problem with the cooperation is that this person is He Chu.

If it wasn't He Chu, but someone casually, this plan was enough to make him tempted, and he could even sign someone more familiar with him on the spot, but he was He Chu.

Leaving aside the entanglement between the two, Zhou Yu really didn't want to have any contact with this person anymore.

What's more, when He Chu came last night, he had already expressed his meaning to Zhou Yu, and he knew He Chu well, but in his opinion, what He Chu did was nothing more than a way to pursue him. Just like back then...

He did exactly the same thing when he cheated on his feelings.

Ah...it was that year again.

Zhou Yu has never been a magnanimous person, he is even small-minded, and he still remembers what happened that year to this day.

For example, at those times they sneered at him, or they abused him for no reason, and He Chu's eyes.

Not only can't he forget, but his concern for these things is increasing day by day.

It's not that he was so stingy that he hated them for so many years, but just wanting to remind himself of his stupidity back then was enough for him to remember.

He has always felt that these years of tempering have made him feel relieved, or that he has long forgotten these trivial things that should have been, because he is Zhou Yu, and he shouldn't spend his mind on these past events.

But it wasn't until last night, after He Chu left, when his stomach hurt unbearably and huddled on the sofa alone, that he felt how obsessed he was with He Chu and those things. Even what kind of resentment.

This kind of resentment not only did not subside with time, but became more intense.

Whenever he was alone in the company working overtime until the clock ticked, in fact, he couldn't help but wonder, if it wasn't for them back then, would he be living a completely different life now.

Like a machine, it never knows to stop.

Now, whenever he thinks of He Chu's "I'm sorry", he wants to go back to that year and crazily ridicule his humble self back then.

"I'm sorry" is not useful even if you say it, nor can you express your apology to anyone, it depends on whether the person accepts it or not.

Over the years, he kept himself busy and kept himself busy every day, just to prevent his thoughts from popping up, but He Chu wanted to break the life he had managed to maintain, so he insisted on coming to force his way .

And he found himself a bit of a clean freak, in every way.

Yesterday, when He Chu said that he wanted to be with him, all he could think of was He Chu's old sentence "I'm with you because you look good... If you get tired of watching it, let's break up".

That was simply the greatest insult to Zhou Yu.

During that time, he hated his own face as never before, and also hated this relationship like never before. He even felt that the word "good-looking" carried extreme malice, tarnishing the purest beauty here.

He felt that a relationship was dirty, but he didn't throw it away. Instead, he let it moldy and rotted in his heart, and finally crawled with maggots. In his future decades, it would stink, and let him remind himself of how ridiculous he was. .

He still cared about He Chu so much at that time, and wanted to say "Come on for the college entrance examination" to He Chu before the college entrance examination, and even wanted to see He Chu for the last time on the last day before he left, but he waited for a day, and he still did not come.

From then on, that ignorant young man who relentlessly wanted to get out of the darkness for He Chu no longer existed.

See me once, even if only once, I won't just give up.

At that time, he wanted to see He Chu, but he couldn't achieve it no matter what. Now it is He Chu who wants to see him, how ironic.

His previous obsession with cleanliness was only reflected in life, but after He Chu, his obsession with emotional cleanliness became even more severe.

He can't accept that someone likes him for any other reason, out of money, fame, status or this face, you can only like me, you can only like me the most, you can see everything about me except me not on.

He can't accept that other people's feelings for him are unclean, and he doesn't like others who have experienced too much in the past, as if this person's soul is not pure.

It's funny to say, he knows that this requirement is difficult to achieve in modern society, because it is really too difficult to find a person with a pure heart in this mixed society, but he just wants to find someone who really likes himself .

Because I have been hurt before, now I am more eager for some sincere emotions.

Now the young man who said "You still like me" is sitting opposite him, and he can also admit without hesitation that what He Chu said is correct, he still likes me and he still cares, but as much as he likes, he can't forgive .

He couldn't accept that He Chu's liking for him back then was not pure, and it was just because of a face, or a little obsession that he didn't let go of many years ago, that he started to chase Zhou Yu fiercely now.

Back then, he felt that he let go because He Chu would never appear in front of him again.

Now that He Chu came back again, and with that kind of thought in mind, then forgiving... is not such an easy task.

"Have you considered it, Mr. Zhou?" He Chu interrupted his train of thought, and put the document in Zhou Yu's hand.

He Chu uncapped the pen and put it in Zhou Yu's hand. This valuable document was just waiting for his signature.

All he needed was a nod and a signature, and Zhou Yu could get the greatest benefit.

He Chu came with a document in his hand, more, in fact, more like his own wishes.

This plan has been in his hands for a long time, but He Chu has never thought of finding someone to cooperate with, but from the moment he saw Zhou Yu, he made up his mind in his heart.

He must make Zhou Yu do this plan.

"ask a question."

Zhou Yu didn't even look at He Chu's stuff, and looked straight into He Chu's eyes: "The things in this document, if you do it yourself, or if you do it with others in a fair way, you will benefit more than doing it with me. Why, Want to send me money in a hurry? You know, I don’t need this at all.”

In the world of people like them, or in Zhou Yu's heart, the least valuable thing is money.

In the past, the so-called "money" was the thing he despised the most, but now the thing he needs the most is money.

"I told you, I want to chase you."

He Chu stretched his arms and put Zhou Yu's pen into his palm, and said with a smile, "Sign it, Mr. Zhou, as you said, I'm rushing to give you money."

"Chasing me? Mr. He, you have great confidence in yourself."

Zhou Yu held the pen vaguely in Zhou Yu's hand. He still didn't intend to sign at all. Instead, he raised his eyebrows and said, "What if I say I don't need this project?"

"First of all, you need this project very much. Our company should be the largest company willing to cooperate with you in China so far. Secondly, if you really don't sign...then I will be very sad. Because this way we will lose one Opportunity to coorparate."

He Chu said, as if he felt a little regretful: "Do you want me to be sad?"

"Excuse me, what does your sadness have to do with me, Mr. He?"

He Chu's expression suddenly froze.

Yes, what does it matter?With this tone of voice, do you still pretend to be a "boyfriend"?

But Zhou Yu was no longer the person who let him act coquettishly and willfully.

Zhou Yu seemed to have said that he didn't like him anymore.It is obviously not qualified for me to use such rhetoric to persuade Zhou Yu.

"Ah... yes, but why did you give up this opportunity just to get angry with me? You don't need this little money, but some people lack the opportunity to cooperate with me. I'm so eager to send this opportunity to you Come on, why didn't you answer it? If you missed it... you may not have another chance. "

Hearing what he said, Zhou Yu's expression finally relaxed a little.

That's right, cooperating with the He family is an opportunity that many people can't ask for... Now that He Chu insists on giving it to him, why doesn't he pick up the fallen pie?

He was very moved by He Chu's conditions, just because the relationship between the two of them was extremely entangled...

But it's a fool who doesn't want the benefits that are delivered in a hurry.

Then he raised his wrist, slowly wrote down, and wrote his name next to that unrestrained signature.

——He Chu, Zhou Yu.

Looking at Zhou Yu's bold and powerful font, He Chu had mixed feelings in his heart.

After so many years, their names are finally listed together again.

That person's handwriting is still so beautiful, and each stroke carries his increasing strength with age.

It's just that he inexplicably remembered that one afternoon when they were still together, Zhou Yu stood behind him, held his hand and wrote down the names of the two people. Later, he thought it was not enough, and added a "" between the two people. &".

It means two people together.

Now there is nothing between those two names, and there is a dazzling "Party A and Party B" beside it...

Zhou Yu closed the document, pushed it in front of He Chu, and stretched out his right hand: "Then we have a happy cooperation."

He Chu stretched out his hand, held that hand tightly, and said with a smile, "Happy, Mr. Zhou."

The five fingers of that hand were long and slender, and the hand was cold. Once I grasped it, I didn't want to let it go...

"Last question. How did you convince your father and shareholders to work with me?"

He Chu smiled slyly at him, and the strength in his hands gradually deepened with the smile: "I said, I came to chase you. Those people are nothing to me. Want to have lunch together? Partners .”

For some reason, He Chu's smile suddenly reminded him of when He Chu was still in high school, when He Chu had small thoughts, he would smile at him like this, and it seemed like a lifetime away for a moment.

Zhou Yu withdrew his hand, stood up and made a sign to see off the guests. Chao Hechu smiled slightly and said, "If you are chasing someone, it is suitable for dinner. Mr. He, you should go back to work."

The author has something to say: ok I know this chapter is really long...

Adult biscuit to say hello to everyone?

Zhou Yu (expressionless): Hello everyone, I am Zhou Yu, and I am 25 years old.
