Cold violence

Although Zhou Yu talked about the "dinner", he didn't put it on the schedule that day, and then it dragged on for a long time.

A lot of things are like this, and they say yes, but they always find an excuse for "another day" because of big and small things, and they change it, and then they don't have a follow-up article.

He Chu was not in a hurry to urge him, nor did he take the initiative to mention it.

He didn't save the mobile phone number that He Chu called him that night, but he firmly felt that the two of them would probably have nothing to do with each other in the future, so it would be better not to save it.

After saving, I can't help but want to check my phone to see if this person has sent me a message.

But he really didn't have time to have a meal with He Chu.

Although Zhou Yu has just returned to China, Zhou's company has been established since his ancestors, and has a great reputation abroad. Even if it has just entered the domestic market, its strength is absolutely not to be underestimated. From his return to the present, Zhou Yu's daily The schedule is full, and there is no time to do other things at all.

Just on the day He Chu came here, from ten o'clock in the morning to when he got off work in the evening, he held four large and small meetings, and he worked overtime until ten o'clock in the evening before returning home.

It stands to reason that the company has been on the right track for many years. Even if he just returned to China, the senior management can share many things for him, and he does not need to do many things himself. However, Zhou Yu is in control, so he just can't rest assured.

He devoted himself wholeheartedly to his work, not as busy as a company boss.

In the end, there is still an excessive sense of responsibility, and I don't particularly trust the newly recruited top management in the country, so I overdraw myself without limit.

Zhou Yu worked overtime again today.

When He Chu called, Zhou Yu had just finished his overseas memories, and the mobile phone was still with the assistant. Under his signal, the assistant answered He Chu's call.

He Chu probably had been cold for a long time, and couldn't hold back anymore, so he still called.

But he didn't want to hear what He Chu said, he wasn't interested in the "pursuit" that He Chu said.

It can be said that there is no expectation at all.

Because they are former lovers, they both know the other's behavior and speaking way too well.

He really knew He Chu too well.

What he can't get is the more he wants to get it. After he really gets it, he will feel uninterested after a long time, and he will feel bored after a long time.

Wasn't it the same way he treated himself back then?

At the first glance, I felt amazing, but in the end it was not because he was tired of seeing this face that he dumped it.

It was because He Chu saw him at the party not long ago, and he probably felt that his ex-boyfriend was different from the one he remembered.

It's just a heartbeat, and it's even more worthless.

He knew that He Chu had always followed his word.

Just like when he said to himself "I will catch up with you within a month", they were together within a month.

Now that he said he was chasing him, it was definitely not a lie, but he seemed to know how to chase people, he was not chasing and beating like before, it seemed a little believable.

Maybe I really like it.

But what's the use of having this kind of emotion caused by a momentary heartbeat?

He pinched his eyebrows, heard his assistant talking to He Chu, and glanced at him from time to time.

"Mr. He, it's like this. Our Mr. Zhou is in a meeting. Well, yes, you know, there are a lot of company meetings... I'm afraid Mr. Zhou is not free today... Tomorrow? Wait, I want to see Mr. Zhou's first." For the itinerary, we need to ask for his own opinion..."

The assistant covered the microphone, and gave Zhou Yu a look of asking for help. Zhou Yu said "no time" with his mouth, and heard the assistant say to He Chu again: "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou's schedule is also full tomorrow. Yes, if you have something to talk to Mr. Zhou, please wait for him to finish the meeting and then go to him alone... Well, the end time of the meeting depends on Mr. Zhou's arrangement...Okay, you're welcome."

Zhou Yu turned her head silently, not expressing anything about the conversation.

Through the huge French windows, he could see that it was all dark.

This year's winter is extremely cold, and the light snow has fallen several times intermittently. The weather forecast says that there will be heavy snow today. At this time, he is sitting in a high-rise building on the 33rd floor, looking at the lights of thousands of houses in the city.

Zhou Yu is afraid of the cold, but likes to stare out the window in a daze. His office doesn't often turn on the air conditioner, so the temperature on his hands is always cold.

He squeezed the palm of his hand to relieve the stiffness in his hand.

The assistant handed over the phone, and heard Zhou Yu suddenly say: "I heard that there will be heavy snow tomorrow, you send an email to the company in the name of the company, saying that you will go to work at 08:30 tomorrow, and there will be a half hour delay. I don’t have to go to work in the morning.”

"Okay," the assistant laughed, and then teased Zhou Yu again: "Why don't you post it in your own name?"

"What the company means is also what I mean."

Zhou Yu is the largest shareholder of the company, so his meaning is naturally the company's meaning.

"They don't know. If you care, it doesn't matter if you let them know."

"No." Zhou Yu still looked out of the window with a calm tone.

He knows that everyone in the company says he is cold and difficult to get in touch with. Since he is such a persona, he shouldn't show his concern so bluntly. It will only make them feel that the boss is abnormal and that he panic.

Rather than that, it's better not to care.

The assistant stood by his hand and smiled bitterly.

Zhou Yu is such a person. He holds a high position in the company, but he is never late. He will come to the company early every working day, and sometimes he will work overtime until midnight. It is rare to see him having any entertainment on weekends. For activities, everyone in the company is restrained by his almost non-smiling face, and dare not violate discipline, but every time Zhou Yu adjusts the working time when the weather changes, and often holds parties during the holidays, But never in his own name.

He will always treat you silently, so that you don't feel it at all, it's just a unified arrangement of the company.

"Si Yan, you seem to have been with me for a long time." Zhou Yu said suddenly.

"Yes, it has been seven years since you came of age."

Chen Siyan stood by Zhou Yu's hand, looking down at this handsome young man.

It turned out that seven years had passed in a trance.

The Zhou Yu in front of him can be said to be that he watched step by step until today.

He watched Zhou Yu grow from a young boy who was awkward when talking to the directors, to the man who played an important role in the mall today.

Now this person holds the largest share in the company, and no one can shake his position.It was rare for him to laugh when he was young, and it is still so rare now. He seems to have never seen real happiness in this person.

He seems to be born different from others. The burden on him is too heavy, so he can only force himself to be a boring person in order to bear his responsibility.

His life is so simple, he only fights for the company every day, but Chen Siyan feels that he can't see through the mind of this simple person.

He disguised himself with his indifference and turned everyone away.

"It's been a long time."

Zhou Yu nodded and asked, "I remember how much older you are than me. Are you still married?"

When he is free, he likes to talk to Chen Siyan about topics that have nothing to do with work, so he takes it as a rest.I don't know what happened today, but I suddenly remembered this question.

Maybe it was too tired, maybe it was because of He Chu's appearance that the "emotional" switch in his heart was turned on again, and he became curious about the stories of the people around him.

Chen Siyan had already graduated from university when he stood beside him, and now even he has reached the age where he can talk about marriage, but this person seems to have been standing by his side without desire or desire, and he has not even seen him in love for so many years Talked about it once.

I don't want to waste my energy on these things, but what about Chen Siyan?

"It's not important, Zhou Yu."

Zhou Yu asked him this question during working hours, which meant that he no longer regarded him as his assistant, and he no longer regarded himself as an assistant, calling Zhou Yu's name directly.

For so many years, the two people have been getting along very harmoniously, completely beyond the relationship at work, and more like friends.

They have been able to switch between the two relationships of "boss and employee" and "friend" very skillfully.

"Not everyone needs to get married, unless they meet that person. This is something that cannot be forced."

"Really?" Zhou Yu asked softly.

"Aren't you the same?"

"Ah...you're right, this kind of thing can't be forced."

Zhou Yu nodded again, as if he didn't intend to continue the topic, as if what he said just now was just a casual mention.

"Would you like to sit down and drink some red wine?" He raised his chin towards the wine cabinet.

"You want to drink it yourself."

Chen Siyan smiled, went to the wine cabinet, took two goblets, and asked him, "Which bottle do you want to drink?"

He knows Zhou Yu very well, this person is sometimes a very duplicity, he won't say what he likes directly, he always seems to feel that something is preventing him from expressing his heart.

Only those who know Zhou Yu well enough can judge his psychology from an occasional change in his eyes.

But he didn't show it on the surface when he got what he wanted, and he would only know that he was in a good mood now if there were more words in the next conversation.

It just so happened that Chen Siyan was the person next to Zhou Yu who knew him well.

But sometimes he couldn't help but smile wryly, obviously he was still a young man, but he wanted to live so maturely.

"Open any bottle you want, I don't really have any research on red wine. Remember to turn off the light as well."

After Zhou Yu finished speaking, the headlights in the office went out, as did the last light on the 33rd floor, so the whole floor was plunged into darkness, only the light from the lights outside the window penetrated a little bit, illuminating the whole area in front of the window. Small piece of open space.

He reached out and turned on the lamp on the table, the warm yellow light made him feel a little warmer around him.

Zhou Yu leaned on the chair, his eyes were empty.

He always drinks with Chen Siyan, sometimes just for a drink, sometimes they go to the bar for a drink together.

This person has occupied a very important position by his side, just like Yu Jingzhou back then.

Speaking of drinking, he suddenly remembered that when he and He Chugang broke up, he drank himself until his stomach bleeds, and it was Wang Zhi who sent him to the hospital.

Wang Zhi... In fact, we still keep in touch with each other occasionally these years, but for various reasons, the two of them can't make an appointment together.

Zhou Yu couldn't get away abroad, and Wang Zhi gradually got on the right track in China. The year of being suppressed by his elder brother seemed to be busy with no end in sight.

"Forget it." Chen Siyan put the wine glass on Zhou Yu's desk, moved another chair and sat next to Zhou Yu, and looked out the window with Zhou Yu.

"Haven't you been back for many years? I haven't asked you how you feel."

"Well, it's the first time in so many years, maybe I'll leave after making arrangements here."

He took the wine glass and shook it lightly. The dark red liquid streaked across the glass without leaving any traces. He took a sip and asked, "Is that bottle of Chateau Latour from 05?"

"Hey, isn't this quite understandable, you can drink the year?" Chen Siyan clinked glasses with him, and drank the crimson liquid in one gulp.

"The wines in my cabinet are all given by others. Each variety has only one year. I probably remember it."

Zhou Yu drank the wine and said slowly, "I thought you would open that bottle of 87 Bernstein. I remember you liked it."

"It's hard for you to remember." Chen Siyan said with a smile: "I don't want to cheat you, I will drive back later."

Chen Siyan filled the glasses of the two of them with another quarter, began to shake the wine slowly, and asked, "Why are you rushing back after you settle down here?"

"..." Zhou Yu didn't speak, his eyes were a little dark.

Chen Siyan waited for a while, and was about to speak, but was preempted by Zhou Yu: "It's changed too much, I'm not used to it."

"Is there no other reason?" Chen Siyan asked sharply.

"Have."

Zhou Yu answered frankly, and had nothing to hide from Chen Siyan.

"Then let me guess...the He Chu who called you...was the one you used to? It's probably the same person for your other reasons, right?"

Zhou Yu's smile stopped, he didn't expect Chen Siyan to ask so straightforwardly.

"Well, yes, but we haven't been together for a long time." He lowered his head and smiled, and asked, "How do you know?"

"They directly called your private number. As soon as they opened their mouths, they were so excited that they asked you if you were free today. I told you that you were not free, and they kept asking me."

Zhou Yu smiled lightly, He Chu was no different from before.

"Since when have you had such familiar people around you? Besides, after so many years, there are not many people who can call you 'Zhou Yu', right?"

"Ah..." Zhou Yu thought for a while, and felt that what he said made sense.

There are not many people who know his private number now, and most of them are business partners with a lot of contacts.Over the years, Zhou Yu has heard the most titles "Mr. Zhou" and "Director Zhou". People of the older generation will call him "Xiao Yu" by themselves. There are really not many people like He Chu.

"He used to be..." Zhou Yu murmured, he wanted to say something but thought of something, and suddenly changed his words: "Forget it, it's nothing."

"What was it before? Like to call you something else?" Chen Siyan smiled, and asked with great interest: "What happened to you back then, he still has no affection for you after so many years?"

"How can you guess everything?" Zhou Yu didn't answer his question directly, but asked an irrelevant question. He remembered that Chen Siyan's major was finance.

"When I was in college, I took psychology in our school as an elective."

When he said this, there was a sense of complacency, "At that time, there were quite a few girls chasing me in our school."

"Because of your elective major, uncle will arrange you to work with me, right?"

Although Zhou Yu's words were a question, but his tone was firm, obviously he already knew the answer.

He always talks like this with Chen Siyan, and the interrogative sentences that he usually utters are those that he has already determined the answer and does not need Chen Siyan to affirm, they are just to confirm what he thinks in his heart.

Chen Siyan has long been used to Zhou Yu's way of doing things. Whenever this happens, he never refutes or admits it, because rebuttals are invalid.

Chen Siyan still didn't reply to his words that sounded like he was talking to himself, and heard Zhou Yu say again: "He dumped me, that's all."

His tone was indifferent, as if he was just talking about an innocuous matter that had passed for many years.

But Chen Siyan was overwhelmed by the gold content of these words.

He has been by Zhou Yu's side since he took over the company when he was in college.

In addition to the need to get used to the company's various affairs in the first year, which made him a little unfamiliar, Zhou Yu has shown his super business ability since the second year.

Not only did he manage the company as well as his mother who had been in business for a long time, but he even brought more benefits to the company than when his mother was still alive. In the end, not only Chen Siyan by his side, but also his Those uncles were all in admiration for this fledgling child.

Not only that, even though Zhou Yu spent a lot of time at work, he was still able to win scholarships every year with excellent grades in school.

Such a person, such Zhou Yu, was dumped by He Chu back then?

With Zhou Yu's strong character, how could he be dumped?

But when he knew that Zhou Yu had been in love, he was shocked enough. After all, Zhou Yu looked indifferent and hopeless. Nearly", being able to fall in love seems to him like a blossoming iron tree, but not only has he fallen in love, he has also become the one who was dumped.

Zhou Yu, who is so strong, can bear it?

However, it is not convenient for him to find out too much about the secretive affairs of the boss, no matter whether he is a friend or an assistant. His job is to let Zhou Yu control his emotions and to support Zhou Yu.

He frowned, and asked cautiously, "Does he still like you?"

This question was a bit private, Zhou Yu was silent for a long time, just when he thought Zhou Yu would not answer, he heard Zhou Yu casually say: "Well, yes."

After a while he added: "But it doesn't matter."

Zhou Yu didn't know why he had to think about this issue for so long.

Probably... because I really don't have much confidence in He Chu.

"Yes." Chen Siyan smiled and said nothing more.

If Zhou Yu is willing to speak, then he is all ears. If Zhou Yu is not willing to speak, he can't be curious. As a friend, he is actually not particularly curious about Zhou Yu's private life, and he knows how to respect other people's privacy.

He didn't participate in Zhou Yu's past, and he shouldn't need to know too much now.

"So will you arrange time to see him next? If you need, I can arrange it in your itinerary."

"See him?" Zhou Yu raised his chin at him, even in the darkness, his contempt could be vaguely seen in his eyes:

"Why should I see him? I tried to find him so many times but was rejected by him. Why should I see him now?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly realized that there seemed to be a bit of anger in his words.

Well.It turns out that after such a long time, I still haven't grown up in this kind of thing...

"Then next time Mr. He calls again, I'll just tell him that your schedule is already full. Do you think this is feasible?"

"If it's a private call, just tell him that, and talk about business matters."

Zhou Yu finished his last sip of wine, got up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows, saw the traffic on the elevated road from a distance, thought of something, and suddenly let out a sigh.

The sigh quickly disappeared into the air.

Sitting where he was, Chen Siyan looked at his indifferent profile and bottomless eyes, feeling that even the lights of thousands of houses could not find his eyes.

Even if the brilliance of the stars all over the sky fell into his eyes, they could all be sucked in by his pair of black pupils, and the brilliance could not be reflected.

There really is such a person in this world, he has no desires, no desires, no consideration for the future, and no idea about everything. You think he is not tall enough, but when he really reaches that height, there will be a lot of flowers around him. You will find that this person really doesn't need anything, the only thing he has done is to live.

The person next to him is Zhou Yu.

He is so young and promising, he even has everything, and the property left by his father is enough for him to squander his whole life, but he still tries his best to complete everything, but no matter what he has achieved Chen Siyan has never seen him really smile for any achievement.

When he took office as a new official, he would also greet people with a smile on his face. At the reception, he also learned to be polite and courteous, and occasionally put on a humorous look, but Chen Siyan always stood by his side. However, he never felt that Zhou Yu was really happy for a moment.

He is unhappy, even living a very sad life.

Chen Siyan even felt that Zhou Yu did so much for the company, not because of those desires in his heart, but because of his sense of responsibility. In order to inherit his father's last wish, he had to do his best in his current job .

He was already an adult man, but Chen Siyan often felt that he was still like a child.

A child who wanted everything when he was a child, so now he wants to keep everything.

There is a tenacity in him that allows him to get what he should get no matter what.

In fact, following Zhou Yu's side for so many years, he also discovered many problems with Zhou Yu.

The most serious thing is probably that Zhou Yu is a typical dependent personality, and he doesn't want to show his autism in front of others.

He is not good at communicating with people, and every time he listens to someone speak, he always replies with those few syllables; he is also very unwilling to accept new things. The daily necessities in life must be of the same brand as the last one, down to the pen holder on the table; even the style of music he has listened to has not changed for so many years, and he still stubbornly listens to those young people now Classical music that seems to be "out"; I don't like crowded places, I don't like noisy environments; I'm very familiar with life, but I will make small jokes and even have a bit of a vicious tongue on familiar people...

In fact, it is difficult enough to follow this guy.

Sometimes Chen Siyan would think the same way when he was too busy following him.

But this person... is really inseparable.

He is a person who will make people feel distressed as long as someone is willing to understand him, so distressed that he even feels that he will be unhappy as long as he walks away, and he will feel guilty even with himself.

Thinking of this, Chen Siyan put the oxidized red wine into his mouth, which was a little sour.

"Take the rest back." Zhou Yu saw Chen Siyan's movements through the reflective glass, and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Assistant, I asked you to work overtime again today."

As soon as Zhou Yu changed his clothes, there was a knock on the door.

He sighed in his heart, thinking that maybe He Chu would not let him go so easily.

Sure enough, as soon as he opened the door with a gap, it was pulled open abruptly.

Then He Chu's smiling face appeared in front of Zhou Yu's eyes.

Zhou Yu subconsciously wanted to close the door, but He Chu stuck his foot in the moment he pulled the door.

"Would you like me to come in and sit down, Mr. Zhou?" He asked with a smile.

"You came here uninvited, why do you still come in?"

"Because I want to see you."

"You've seen it, now I need to rest."

Zhou Yu tried his best, but He Chu resisted even harder.

That was a force that was completely inconsistent with the gentle smile on his face.

Zhou Yu was taken aback for a moment, and He Chu suddenly exerted strength in his hands, and opened Zhou Yu's room door, and stood in front of Zhou Yu.

He sniffed, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared: "Have you been drinking?"

The nose is so good?

Zhou Yu was puzzled, but just stared at He Chu without making a sound.

He Chu is not qualified to ask about his privacy, and Zhou Yu has no need to reply to what he said.

"Drinking without dinner? With whom?"

He Chu asked another question, his tone was as familiar as it was ten years ago, He Chu found that when Zhou Yu ate too little, he spoke with a bit of reproach.

"This has nothing to do with you." Zhou Yu said angrily.

"Why doesn't it have anything to do with me? After all, I'm also your ex-boyfriend, it doesn't seem like there's anything wrong with caring about you?"

"Oh, so? You know it's your ex-boyfriend. What did you say when you were in my company today?"

Thinking of He Chuchen's embarrassing "I'm his boyfriend" sentence in the morning, Zhou Yu felt that his complexion might not be pretty now.

"Oh, if you think my statement is okay, I can accept it. Now you say yes, and you get a boyfriend for free, how about it, huh?"

"No need. If you are fine, please go back."

Zhou Yu stood at the door all the time, and the door was held in He Chu's hands, so he could only act like "No entry for idlers", and let He Chu stop at the door of his house.

He Chu saw that Zhou Yu was clearly "refusing", so he curled his lips:

"It makes me sad if you stop me like this. I came here as soon as I got off work. I have been waiting for you for a long time."

It's a bit pitiful, like being coquettish.

After work?That's a long time?Zhou Yu was slightly taken aback.

At the moment of his hesitation, He Chu took the opportunity to walk sideways into Zhou Yu's house, then pulled Zhou Yu in, and closed the door.

By the time Zhou Yu realized it, he was already sitting on the sofa in his own home.

"..." Zhou Yu was silent for a while, then said in a deep voice, "He Chu, can you stop being so shameless?"

"If I'm shameless and useful to you, I'll admit it." He Chuman teased himself nonchalantly. He took off his coat and put it on the hanger, then turned and went into the kitchen, without any intention of looking outside.

Self-conscious as if in your own home.

Looking at He Chu's back, Zhou Yu frowned even deeper.

What exactly do you want to do?He Chu.

The author has something to say: stopped for a few days.

(Looking for something to say) But these chapters seem to be quite long.
