I spoil the domineering president
Chapter 44
"Miss Wu, Mr. Du." Xu Zhuo nodded in greeting.
"Manager Xu!" Wu Shu exclaimed exaggeratedly, and walked over with a smile, "You're here, where is Ziyou? Haven't you come down to eat yet?"
As she spoke, her eyes fell to the dining table, the smile froze on her face, and she immediately fell silent.
There was only a pair of bowls and chopsticks on the table, filled with half-eaten rice and dishes, placed in front of Xu Zhuo, it was obvious that he was the only one eating.
Xu Zhuo only noticed her words and raised an eyebrow. "Ziyou"?It was too intimate.
Aunt Wei at the side rubbed the apron in front of her uneasily, and stammered: "Young Master, Miss Wu, have you eaten? There is soup in it, let me serve you some?"
"No need." Du Yongfeng said slowly, looking Xu Zhuo up and down with hair-raising eyes, "Are you... the one who accompanied my brother back to the old house last time?"
Xu Zhuo didn't need to deny it, and nodded: "It's me. I'm sorry, why did Mr. Du and Ms. Wu come to visit suddenly?"
Du Yongfeng didn't answer his question, and the corner of his mouth curled into a contemptuous arc: "You have a good relationship with him, even my elder brother couldn't stay for dinner, you opened the table alone. Or," he turned his head to look Aunt Xiang Wei, "The servant doesn't know the rules, so he just let outsiders stay at home?"
Aunt Wei's face turned pale in an instant: "No, it's not..."
Simply deceiving.
Xu Zhuo looked straight at him, and said in a flat tone: "Ziyou is very hospitable, and it's not the first time to invite someone to eat. Mr. Du will know when he comes a few times."
Although Wu Shu was bold and unrestrained, she was actually quite afraid of Du Yongfeng. At this time, she was intimidated by the undercurrent of their conversation, and she stood silently, not daring to move.
Du Yongfeng ignored her, turned his head around and scanned the room, and asked, "Where is Du Ziyou?"
Aunt Wei looked at Xu Zhuo reflexively when she heard the words, her eyes were bewildered, begging for help and urging.
Can it be hidden so soon?A few thoughts flashed through Xu Zhuo's mind, whether to lie and tell the other party that Du Ziyou was not off work, or to tell the truth that Du Ziyou had gone on a business trip abroad.
If it was the former, according to their posture, they would probably wait for Du Ziyou to come back from get off work, maybe they would call to remind them, and they would still be exposed at that time.And a lie needs countless lies to complete, they have too many ways to know the truth.
If it is the latter, they will definitely have doubts: why is the master far away abroad, and you and others can come in and out at will, and why do you stay generously and let the servant cook for you?
During the few seconds of his ideological struggle, Du Yongfeng turned around and took a few steps towards the stairs, and said leisurely, "Is there anything you can't say, why do you still have to think about it for so long?"
As soon as Xu Zhuo gritted his teeth, forget it, he died early and was born early.
"Ziyou went abroad a few days ago. I have a good relationship with Aunt Wei. I come here to help out when I have time."
Du Yongfeng stopped in his tracks, turned his head suddenly, and looked at him gloomyly over his shoulder.
"The master is not at home, and the servant invites people into the house casually and cooks. Do you think this is your home?" He shifted his gaze to Aunt Wei, "Aunt Wei is getting older, and she is becoming less and less ignorant of the rules. , I'm afraid I have to retire early to take care of my life?"
Aunt Wei's pale lips were trembling. When she was young, she was afraid of Mr. Du, and later she was afraid of the young man. She has worked in Du's family all her life and has no other relatives or skills. Where can she go at her age?Although her savings were not small, the feeling of being abandoned and disgusted, as well as the fear of being old and homeless, were enough to defeat her.
"Master, I don't have one——Mr. Xu is a good friend of Mr. Du. He usually eats at home. Mr. Du also knows about it..."
"Du Ziyou knows?" Du Yongfeng repeated her words, and said, "Even if he knows, he won't be able to play with his temper in the future."
Xu Zhuo frowned when he heard this, this man is too lenient, this place is his younger brother's territory after all, what prestige is he trying to show off here! ?
Xu Zhuo was about to speak rhetorically, but Du Yongfeng raised his finger and pointed to Wu Shu who was standing aside, as if to Aunt Wei, or to Xu Zhuo: "Miss Wu will be the hostess here from now on, what's the matter?" She has to agree, do you need time to get used to it?"
Wu Shu, who had not dared to make a sound all this time, also froze in surprise when she heard this sentence, and looked at the speaker suspiciously.
Xu Zhuo was so angry that he squeezed out a smile instead, and glanced at Wu Shu from the corner of his eye: "Oh? Why didn't I know when Ziyou got married? We didn't invite us to the wedding wine, it's so embarrassing." .”
"Getting married is a matter of time. He is such an old man, and his father has long been looking forward to having a grandson. Miss Wu's family background, knowledge, and appearance are all good, so she is worthy of him."
When Du Yongfeng said this, his tone was as if Wu Shu was not present, and he casually commented on her as if he were evaluating a commodity.
Perhaps for him, marriage is a commodity, and his own brother and Wu Shu are part of the commodity and have no right to bargain.
"Sorry, I have a question." Xu Zhuo nodded to Wu Shu, then looked back at Du Yongfeng, "Ziyou talked to me about marriage by chance, and his attitude was clear—Miss Wu is indeed very qualified. But it is not suitable for him, so marriage is absolutely impossible, and what Mr. Du said may be premature."
Wu Shu held back for so long and finally had a chance to speak.She retorted: "That's because we haven't gotten along much. When we get in touch with each other and understand each other, I don't believe that he doesn't like me!"
Auntie, don't get meddled!The person you are looking for has already belonged to you, and you have no hope!
Xu Zhuo shouted in his heart.He doesn't hate this woman, he just finds her annoying: "Ziyou will be on a business trip for half a month, you have to contact him after he comes back ten days later. Sorry, I want to eat now, what else can you do?"
He was clearly chasing away guests, although in the eyes of these two people he was the guest, but Du Ziyou had long regarded himself as a family member, so he was the owner of this house!
Du Yongfeng shook his sleeves and left, Wu Shu looked at Xu Zhuo complicatedly, and then left.Xu Zhuo sat down and sat down, then picked up his rice bowl and continued to eat.
After the door was closed, Aunt Wei came back to the living room and babbled at Xu Zhuo for a while without uttering a word.
"Aunt Wei, just say what you want, don't be embarrassed." Xu Zhuo said.
Aunt Wei showed a weak smile. She was hit by the ups and downs of emotions just now, and she finally calmed down.
"Don't worry... Mr. Du won't like Miss Wu." She said.
Xu Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and asked curiously, "I agree with that—but why are you so sure?"
"I'm thinking," she said in a low voice, "Mr. Du stays with you... the whole person is alive, so you are very suitable for him, and he can't give up you and choose someone else."
Xu Zhuo's smile couldn't be suppressed: "I accept your good words." Unexpectedly, it was a big gain to get Aunt Wei's support smoothly.
Aunt Wei hesitated to speak, and after a while she asked tentatively, "What about you?"
"Huh? Me what?" Xu Zhuo was puzzled.
"The old house won't let it go, what are you going to do..." Aunt Wei looked at him full of doubts.
Xu Zhuo immediately understood what she meant, put down the bowls and chopsticks, straightened his back and said seriously: "Don't worry——I won't give up on him either."
Due to busy work and jet lag, Xu Zhuo and Du Ziyou had limited time to communicate. They could only talk before going to work every morning and after dinner at night, and they were often interrupted by other things.
"Are you in the car?" Xu Zhuo asked after seeing his background through the video.
Du Ziyou nodded "Yes" and said, "The journey will take 40 minutes." We can talk for a while.
It was 07:30 in the morning on his side, and he was driving to the venue.Originally, the organizer planned to let him ride in the same car with another executive, but in order to facilitate the video talk with Xu Zhuo, he insisted on renting another car and hiring a driver at his own expense.
"It's too early for the meeting." Xu Zhuo got out of the elevator, took out the key and opened the door, "Can you have breakfast in time? If you can eat, you should eat some, or you will spoil your stomach."
"Eat," Du Ziyou twitched the corner of his mouth, and said sullenly, "It's better to make it at home."
Xu Zhuo laughed out loud, "You've been abroad for a few years, and you haven't gotten used to the food there?"
"I used to have a private chef, so I didn't need to eat food from an outside restaurant."
They talked nonsense about their parents like this, and they talked with great interest. One wanted to finish the work at hand and fly back to the country, and the other wanted to get into the screen of the mobile phone and cross to the other side.
"There's still a week left..." Xu Zhuo sighed and collapsed on the sofa.
Du Ziyou was silent for a moment before whispering: "It's not a week, it's five days."
Xu Zhuo was amused by him, held up the phone and moved closer, looking at the handsome face on the other side of the screen, the spontaneous impulse made him lean up and kiss it fiercely, and let out a chirping sound.
Although he was not actually kissed, Du Ziyou's face turned red visibly, like a ripe fruit.He panicked and looked up at the driver in front of him, who was focusing on the road conditions and didn't pay attention to the movement of the passengers.
Xu Zhuo was still not satisfied, and asked him earnestly, "Did you miss me after being away for a few days?"
This is a routine homework, you have to ask me to answer every time you call.However, after so many routines, Du Ziyou still felt shy and sweet, and softly replied in a mosquito-like voice: "I think."
The driver in the front row couldn't understand Chinese, but his ears were touched by his honeyed tone, and he subconsciously raised his head to look at the passengers in the rear row through the rearview mirror.There was a smile on his face with delicate features and smooth lines, his cheeks were flushed, and the pinnae of his ears were also dyed pink, which added a bit of gaudyness to him.
Probably some Asian star, the driver thought to himself, really good looking.
Xu Zhuo on the other end was elated after receiving the answer, and then teased Du Ziyou relentlessly until Du Ziyou's car arrived at its destination, and when he was about to hang up, Xu Zhuo suddenly called out to him, "Ziyou?"
Several executives who were traveling with him were already waiting, and when they saw Du Ziyou, they walked towards him.Du Ziyou seized the time to respond: "What?"
Xu Zhuo stared at him fixedly, and finally shook his head discouragedly: "No, it's just a call. You go to work and we'll talk at night."
After hanging up the video call, he threw away the phone and covered his face with his hands.
Regarding the matter of Du Yongfeng and Wu Shu's visit, he pondered over it for a long time, not sure whether he should tell Du Ziyou.
I told him in advance that I hope to deal with it early, otherwise I don't know what kind of storm Du Yongfeng has caused when I come back from a business trip for half a month.
If you don't tell him, you are afraid of affecting his work. This business trip is very important to Bingyou's future, and there is no room for loss. The marriage will only disturb his mood.
After much deliberation, Xu Zhuo finally chose to endure the psychological torture alone. From time to time, he sidestepped the martial director so as to catch the wind in advance. Fortunately, no abnormality has been found so far.
Xu Zhuo counted the days when Du Ziyou would return to the country day by day, and finally waited for this day.Du Ziyou's plane would arrive at the airport in the afternoon, and he couldn't pick it up in person, so he planned to go directly to Du's house after get off work, and the other party came back from the airport around that time.
Now it is the end of summer, and it has been raining lightly for two consecutive days, and the scorching heat is no longer there, but the coolness is beginning to appear.
After all, after the last rain, it will officially enter autumn.
Xu Zhuo came out from the light food pavilion after discussing business, and held up an umbrella for Ye Wenfei in a gentlemanly manner.
The phone vibrated in his pocket, and he was overjoyed. It must be Du Ziyou calling, telling himself that he got off the plane.
However, when he took it out, he saw three striking big characters of "Old Man", accompanied by a serious head portrait.
He connected: "Hello? What's the matter?"
The deep disappointment couldn't be concealed, and Ye Wenfei who was on the side couldn't help but look up at him.
"What's the matter!?" Xu Youcai's angry voice almost pierced his eardrum, "I should have asked you what good deed you did!"
Xu Zhuo's heart skipped a beat, did he know that he and Du Ziyou...
"Bastard! Who the hell have you offended!? Ah!?" Xu Youcai yelled and questioned, and was so angry that he was about to set the phone on fire, "I usually thought that although you have a wild temper, you are quite stable, but I didn't expect it to be my dog's eyes! The wrong person gave birth to you, a prodigal son!"
"Okay, don't scold yourself," Xu Zhuo restrained himself from yelling at him, "tell me what happened first."
"Your old man, I'm about to go bankrupt and sleep on the street! Tell me what happened!"
bankruptcy?Something is wrong with the company?
Xu Zhuo was not stupid, and his first reaction was to think of the Du family and the Wu family—after all, there are not many people with the ability and motivation, and they are the only ones.
The question now is what exactly they are based on.Did he discover the relationship between the two, or was he simply displeased with his confrontation, or put pressure on Du Ziyou by suppressing Du Ziyou's friends.
Xu Youcai was still howling angrily: "Get out of here immediately!!!"
Even if he didn't say anything, Xu Zhuo couldn't stay out of it.
He took a deep breath and stabilized his voice: "Don't get excited, I'll go back right away."
After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone neatly, and said goodbye to Ye Wenfei: "You go back to the company by yourself. If anyone asks, just tell me that you have time at home and ask for a temporary leave."
Xu Youcai was in a hurry, and Xu Youcai made several phone calls with perseverance. Xu Zhuo had to drive again, and he had to deal with him again. It wasn't until the car stopped in the parking lot downstairs that he found a chance to send a message to Du Ziyou, saying that he was back. I don't have time to go to Du's house to see him right now.
"Okay, okay, I'm here." He talked to Xu Youcai while going upstairs.
When Xu Youcai made a fortune doing engineering, the family of three was about to move to a big house, when the kidnapping happened.
So the Xu family decided not to reveal their wealth, and keep a low profile if they can usually keep a low profile, and they must not show off outside.So more than ten years have passed, and their family still lives in the old community. They just bought the two upstairs rooms and opened up the third floor.
The neighbors in the neighborhood are all acquainted with each other, and the relationship is harmonious. Xu Zhuo walked upstairs and was enthusiastically held back by several aunts who asked for their health, and Xu Zhuo managed to get rid of it with difficulty.
Before entering the house, he was treated completely differently—Xu Youcai stood guard at the door with a stick, and immediately rushed to beat him viciously.
"Dad!" Xu Zhuo rolled his eyes secretly, and easily grabbed his weapon, even if he exerted all his strength, he couldn't move, "Okay, don't be angry, let's sit down and have a good talk!"
Xu Youcai hummed loudly with his nose unwillingly, let go of the stick and sat down on the sofa.In fact, his anger was almost consumed by phone calls along the way, and he finally calmed down a bit.
"You bastard," he said, staring at his son, "starting last week, several construction sites have been stuck in procedures. At first I thought it was a temporary policy, but after asking, I found out that only my company is like this! I asked a few I have personally inquired about it, and someone sent a message saying that you offended the nobleman."
Having said that, he gave Xu Zhuo a hard look: "Tell me, who did you offend?"
Xu Zhuo was speechless for a while.He can't talk about the Du family, can he?After speaking out, they will be asked how to offend them.
He could only vaguely say: "I don't know either. Dad, you know me. I'm not a troublemaker."
Xu Youcai snorted again, and said, "Don't go back to work these few days, help me at the company immediately, at least find that person for me! It's just a stuck program now, and the impact can be great or small, but I'm afraid that person is still there." There are future moves waiting, and we must be prepared."
I knew it.Xu Zhuo thought in his heart, so bankruptcy is just an exaggeration, it really is the old man's usual style, first trick his son back and then talk about it.
Xu Youcai was not a vegetarian either, his morale was quickly aroused, and he immediately dragged his son out of the house and rushed directly to the company.
The company was the old man's painstaking effort, so it was impossible for Xu Zhuo to ignore it, and it was really because of him that this matter really started.
He devoted himself wholeheartedly to reviewing countless documents, met with batch after batch of project leaders, went to several construction sites overnight to inspect, squatted at the construction site to grab a few suppers, and rushed to the next one .
He was so busy that he was so busy that he was so tired that his back ached. When he returned to his home in the old community in the early morning, he didn't even have the energy to take a bath.
Xu Zhuo habitually touched the phone, squinting his sleepy and dry eyes, but no matter how he pressed it, the phone screen would not light up.
"Don't smash it! I'm up!" He got up very angry today, so he found a charging cable to charge his phone.
Xu Youcai seemed to be urging him to die. When Xu Zhuo was taking a bath and brushing his teeth, he muttered "Hurry up and hurry up", when Xu Zhuo had breakfast, he muttered "Hurry up and stuff it in one bite", when Xu Zhuo was finally able to go out, he muttered "Hurry up!" Hurry up, the company has a phone, don't take your mobile phone", while pushing him away.
Xu Zhuo was dizzy from his nagging, and when he arrived at the company, he started a busy day, even the time for eating and going to the toilet was shortened to the shortest, he became a robot that lived on air, exhausted Working hard for his old man, from day to night, endlessly.
"So," Xu Youcai's calm tone was filled with undercurrents, and he threw a stack of documents on the desk, "The Du family."
Xu Zhuo rubbed the center of his eyebrows wearily, and let out a "hmm".
Xu Youcai was terribly calm: "Tell me, what good things have you done?"
Can you tell?Must not!
Can you hide it?Of course not!
"The two brothers of the Du family have a bit of a conflict," Xu Zhuo said, considering his words, mixed truth and falsehood, "I am on good terms with Mr. Du again..."
Leave the second half of the sentence unspoken, and let the old man use his imagination.
As expected, Xu Youcai frowned and made up for a lot of brothers fighting against each other, fighting for the family property, fighting to the death, thousands of thoughts finally turned into a long sigh:
"Well... Fortunately, your mother only gave birth to you, so there are not so many troubles."
Then he looked at Xu Zhuo again, and said, "You and Du Ziyou are friends? Why haven't you mentioned it?"
"Just the recent matter... that's fine," Xu Zhuo stood up and stretched his waist, "I'm almost busy with things here, and it won't be so easy for Du Yongfeng to make trouble. I'll go back first."
Xu Youcai waved his hand: "Let's go, let's go, I haven't been home a few times throughout the year, and I want to leave as soon as I come back, even if you are the only child, you are heartless."
Xu Zhuo was too lazy to argue with him, and he was also guilty, so he quickly took the car keys and left.
In the middle of the night, the main road was drenched by drizzle, reflecting the dizzy street lamps and car lights, forming a beautiful urban night scene.
It was raining, there were not many people on the street, and there were few cars. Xu Zhuo's car was filled with soothing music. In this situation, his nerves, which had been tense for two days, finally relaxed a little.I have been busy running around all day, my body is smelly and sweaty, I just want to rush home to take a hot bath, and then crawl into the warm and comfortable bed and have a good sleep.
He took out the keys from his pocket, opened the door, and changed his shoes in one go. He was thinking about the bathtub and the bed. He began to take off his shirt and shake his socks at the entrance. Some fell to the ground.
"Ziyou!" It was a huge shock, but also a huge surprise, he rushed forward with a smile on his face to hug his sweetheart.
Du Ziyou was still wearing a suit of work suit and leather shoes, standing in the middle of the living room, staring at Xu Zhuo's face with wide eyes, with a dazed and dumb expression, and did not speak.
Xu Zhuo approached with a smile, kissed the corner of his mouth, and said softly, "Why are you here? I miss you so much! Don't move, let me hug you first."
Du Ziyou's body was a little cold, Xu Zhuo bent over slightly and lowered his head, buried his head in the other's neck, rubbed his back through the fabric of the suit with his palm, breathed the familiar breath of his sweetheart, and let out a contented hum.
Beauty Huai, Hero Tomb, Xu Zhuo was naturally reluctant to leave Du Ziyou, but he belatedly realized that something was wrong, the body of the person in the arms was a bit too stiff, and his breathing was a little unsteady.
Without knowing it, he straightened up and backed away a little, only to see Du Ziyou's eyes were still wide open when he first saw him, his eye sockets were red, his brows were frowning, and his pale lips trembled slightly.
This lovely face, two black pupils, and pitiful thin lips clearly expressed endless grievances. The moment he met Xu Zhuo's eyes, hot tears welled up in his eyes, rustling It fell down with a rustle.
The author has something to say: In order to write the last sentence, I had to write a thick and long chapter.
Thanks to the little angel who irrigated [nutrient solution]:
Dongfang Meowbai 3 bottles; Zuoyan 2 bottles; Xizhou 1 bottle;
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
"Manager Xu!" Wu Shu exclaimed exaggeratedly, and walked over with a smile, "You're here, where is Ziyou? Haven't you come down to eat yet?"
As she spoke, her eyes fell to the dining table, the smile froze on her face, and she immediately fell silent.
There was only a pair of bowls and chopsticks on the table, filled with half-eaten rice and dishes, placed in front of Xu Zhuo, it was obvious that he was the only one eating.

Aunt Wei at the side rubbed the apron in front of her uneasily, and stammered: "Young Master, Miss Wu, have you eaten? There is soup in it, let me serve you some?"
"No need." Du Yongfeng said slowly, looking Xu Zhuo up and down with hair-raising eyes, "Are you... the one who accompanied my brother back to the old house last time?"
Xu Zhuo didn't need to deny it, and nodded: "It's me. I'm sorry, why did Mr. Du and Ms. Wu come to visit suddenly?"
Du Yongfeng didn't answer his question, and the corner of his mouth curled into a contemptuous arc: "You have a good relationship with him, even my elder brother couldn't stay for dinner, you opened the table alone. Or," he turned his head to look Aunt Xiang Wei, "The servant doesn't know the rules, so he just let outsiders stay at home?"
Aunt Wei's face turned pale in an instant: "No, it's not..."
Simply deceiving.
Xu Zhuo looked straight at him, and said in a flat tone: "Ziyou is very hospitable, and it's not the first time to invite someone to eat. Mr. Du will know when he comes a few times."

"Eat," Du Ziyou twitched the corner of his mouth, and said sullenly, "It's better to make it at home."
Xu Zhuo laughed out loud, "You've been abroad for a few years, and you haven't gotten used to the food there?"
"I used to have a private chef, so I didn't need to eat food from an outside restaurant."
They talked nonsense about their parents like this, and they talked with great interest. One wanted to finish the work at hand and fly back to the country, and the other wanted to get into the screen of the mobile phone and cross to the other side.
"There's still a week left..." Xu Zhuo sighed and collapsed on the sofa.
Du Ziyou was silent for a moment before whispering: "It's not a week, it's five days."
Xu Zhuo was amused by him, held up the phone and moved closer, looking at the handsome face on the other side of the screen, the spontaneous impulse made him lean up and kiss it fiercely, and let out a chirping sound.
Although he was not actually kissed, Du Ziyou's face turned red visibly, like a ripe fruit.He panicked and looked up at the driver in front of him, who was focusing on the road conditions and didn't pay attention to the movement of the passengers.
Xu Zhuo was still not satisfied, and asked him earnestly, "Did you miss me after being away for a few days?"
This is a routine homework, you have to ask me to answer every time you call.However, after so many routines, Du Ziyou still felt shy and sweet, and softly replied in a mosquito-like voice: "I think."
The driver in the front row couldn't understand Chinese, but his ears were touched by his honeyed tone, and he subconsciously raised his head to look at the passengers in the rear row through the rearview mirror.There was a smile on his face with delicate features and smooth lines, his cheeks were flushed, and the pinnae of his ears were also dyed pink, which added a bit of gaudyness to him.
Probably some Asian star, the driver thought to himself, really good looking.
Xu Zhuo on the other end was elated after receiving the answer, and then teased Du Ziyou relentlessly until Du Ziyou's car arrived at its destination, and when he was about to hang up, Xu Zhuo suddenly called out to him, "Ziyou?"
Several executives who were traveling with him were already waiting, and when they saw Du Ziyou, they walked towards him.Du Ziyou seized the time to respond: "What?"
Xu Zhuo stared at him fixedly, and finally shook his head discouragedly: "No, it's just a call. You go to work and we'll talk at night."
After hanging up the video call, he threw away the phone and covered his face with his hands.
Regarding the matter of Du Yongfeng and Wu Shu's visit, he pondered over it for a long time, not sure whether he should tell Du Ziyou.
I told him in advance that I hope to deal with it early, otherwise I don't know what kind of storm Du Yongfeng has caused when I come back from a business trip for half a month.
If you don't tell him, you are afraid of affecting his work. This business trip is very important to Bingyou's future, and there is no room for loss. The marriage will only disturb his mood.
After much deliberation, Xu Zhuo finally chose to endure the psychological torture alone. From time to time, he sidestepped the martial director so as to catch the wind in advance. Fortunately, no abnormality has been found so far.
Xu Zhuo counted the days when Du Ziyou would return to the country day by day, and finally waited for this day.Du Ziyou's plane would arrive at the airport in the afternoon, and he couldn't pick it up in person, so he planned to go directly to Du's house after get off work, and the other party came back from the airport around that time.
Now it is the end of summer, and it has been raining lightly for two consecutive days, and the scorching heat is no longer there, but the coolness is beginning to appear.
After all, after the last rain, it will officially enter autumn.
Xu Zhuo came out from the light food pavilion after discussing business, and held up an umbrella for Ye Wenfei in a gentlemanly manner.
The phone vibrated in his pocket, and he was overjoyed. It must be Du Ziyou calling, telling himself that he got off the plane.
However, when he took it out, he saw three striking big characters of "Old Man", accompanied by a serious head portrait.
He connected: "Hello? What's the matter?"
The deep disappointment couldn't be concealed, and Ye Wenfei who was on the side couldn't help but look up at him.
"What's the matter!?" Xu Youcai's angry voice almost pierced his eardrum, "I should have asked you what good deed you did!"
Xu Zhuo's heart skipped a beat, did he know that he and Du Ziyou...
"Bastard! Who the hell have you offended!? Ah!?" Xu Youcai yelled and questioned, and was so angry that he was about to set the phone on fire, "I usually thought that although you have a wild temper, you are quite stable, but I didn't expect it to be my dog's eyes! The wrong person gave birth to you, a prodigal son!"
"Okay, don't scold yourself," Xu Zhuo restrained himself from yelling at him, "tell me what happened first."
"Your old man, I'm about to go bankrupt and sleep on the street! Tell me what happened!"
bankruptcy?Something is wrong with the company?
Xu Zhuo was not stupid, and his first reaction was to think of the Du family and the Wu family—after all, there are not many people with the ability and motivation, and they are the only ones.
The question now is what exactly they are based on.Did he discover the relationship between the two, or was he simply displeased with his confrontation, or put pressure on Du Ziyou by suppressing Du Ziyou's friends.
Xu Youcai was still howling angrily: "Get out of here immediately!!!"
Even if he didn't say anything, Xu Zhuo couldn't stay out of it.
He took a deep breath and stabilized his voice: "Don't get excited, I'll go back right away."
After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone neatly, and said goodbye to Ye Wenfei: "You go back to the company by yourself. If anyone asks, just tell me that you have time at home and ask for a temporary leave."
Xu Youcai was in a hurry, and Xu Youcai made several phone calls with perseverance. Xu Zhuo had to drive again, and he had to deal with him again. It wasn't until the car stopped in the parking lot downstairs that he found a chance to send a message to Du Ziyou, saying that he was back. I don't have time to go to Du's house to see him right now.
"Okay, okay, I'm here." He talked to Xu Youcai while going upstairs.
When Xu Youcai made a fortune doing engineering, the family of three was about to move to a big house, when the kidnapping happened.
So the Xu family decided not to reveal their wealth, and keep a low profile if they can usually keep a low profile, and they must not show off outside.So more than ten years have passed, and their family still lives in the old community. They just bought the two upstairs rooms and opened up the third floor.
The neighbors in the neighborhood are all acquainted with each other, and the relationship is harmonious. Xu Zhuo walked upstairs and was enthusiastically held back by several aunts who asked for their health, and Xu Zhuo managed to get rid of it with difficulty.
Before entering the house, he was treated completely differently—Xu Youcai stood guard at the door with a stick, and immediately rushed to beat him viciously.
"Dad!" Xu Zhuo rolled his eyes secretly, and easily grabbed his weapon, even if he exerted all his strength, he couldn't move, "Okay, don't be angry, let's sit down and have a good talk!"
Xu Youcai hummed loudly with his nose unwillingly, let go of the stick and sat down on the sofa.In fact, his anger was almost consumed by phone calls along the way, and he finally calmed down a bit.
"You bastard," he said, staring at his son, "starting last week, several construction sites have been stuck in procedures. At first I thought it was a temporary policy, but after asking, I found out that only my company is like this! I asked a few I have personally inquired about it, and someone sent a message saying that you offended the nobleman."
Having said that, he gave Xu Zhuo a hard look: "Tell me, who did you offend?"
Xu Zhuo was speechless for a while.He can't talk about the Du family, can he?After speaking out, they will be asked how to offend them.
He could only vaguely say: "I don't know either. Dad, you know me. I'm not a troublemaker."
Xu Youcai snorted again, and said, "Don't go back to work these few days, help me at the company immediately, at least find that person for me! It's just a stuck program now, and the impact can be great or small, but I'm afraid that person is still there." There are future moves waiting, and we must be prepared."
I knew it.Xu Zhuo thought in his heart, so bankruptcy is just an exaggeration, it really is the old man's usual style, first trick his son back and then talk about it.
Xu Youcai was not a vegetarian either, his morale was quickly aroused, and he immediately dragged his son out of the house and rushed directly to the company.
The company was the old man's painstaking effort, so it was impossible for Xu Zhuo to ignore it, and it was really because of him that this matter really started.
He devoted himself wholeheartedly to reviewing countless documents, met with batch after batch of project leaders, went to several construction sites overnight to inspect, squatted at the construction site to grab a few suppers, and rushed to the next one .
He was so busy that he was so busy that he was so tired that his back ached. When he returned to his home in the old community in the early morning, he didn't even have the energy to take a bath.
Xu Zhuo habitually touched the phone, squinting his sleepy and dry eyes, but no matter how he pressed it, the phone screen would not light up.
"Don't smash it! I'm up!" He got up very angry today, so he found a charging cable to charge his phone.
Xu Youcai seemed to be urging him to die. When Xu Zhuo was taking a bath and brushing his teeth, he muttered "Hurry up and hurry up", when Xu Zhuo had breakfast, he muttered "Hurry up and stuff it in one bite", when Xu Zhuo was finally able to go out, he muttered "Hurry up!" Hurry up, the company has a phone, don't take your mobile phone", while pushing him away.
Xu Zhuo was dizzy from his nagging, and when he arrived at the company, he started a busy day, even the time for eating and going to the toilet was shortened to the shortest, he became a robot that lived on air, exhausted Working hard for his old man, from day to night, endlessly.
"So," Xu Youcai's calm tone was filled with undercurrents, and he threw a stack of documents on the desk, "The Du family."
Xu Zhuo rubbed the center of his eyebrows wearily, and let out a "hmm".
Xu Youcai was terribly calm: "Tell me, what good things have you done?"
Can you tell?Must not!
Can you hide it?Of course not!
"The two brothers of the Du family have a bit of a conflict," Xu Zhuo said, considering his words, mixed truth and falsehood, "I am on good terms with Mr. Du again..."
Leave the second half of the sentence unspoken, and let the old man use his imagination.
As expected, Xu Youcai frowned and made up for a lot of brothers fighting against each other, fighting for the family property, fighting to the death, thousands of thoughts finally turned into a long sigh:
"Well... Fortunately, your mother only gave birth to you, so there are not so many troubles."
Then he looked at Xu Zhuo again, and said, "You and Du Ziyou are friends? Why haven't you mentioned it?"
"Just the recent matter... that's fine," Xu Zhuo stood up and stretched his waist, "I'm almost busy with things here, and it won't be so easy for Du Yongfeng to make trouble. I'll go back first."
Xu Youcai waved his hand: "Let's go, let's go, I haven't been home a few times throughout the year, and I want to leave as soon as I come back, even if you are the only child, you are heartless."
Xu Zhuo was too lazy to argue with him, and he was also guilty, so he quickly took the car keys and left.
In the middle of the night, the main road was drenched by drizzle, reflecting the dizzy street lamps and car lights, forming a beautiful urban night scene.
It was raining, there were not many people on the street, and there were few cars. Xu Zhuo's car was filled with soothing music. In this situation, his nerves, which had been tense for two days, finally relaxed a little.I have been busy running around all day, my body is smelly and sweaty, I just want to rush home to take a hot bath, and then crawl into the warm and comfortable bed and have a good sleep.
He took out the keys from his pocket, opened the door, and changed his shoes in one go. He was thinking about the bathtub and the bed. He began to take off his shirt and shake his socks at the entrance. Some fell to the ground.
"Ziyou!" It was a huge shock, but also a huge surprise, he rushed forward with a smile on his face to hug his sweetheart.
Du Ziyou was still wearing a suit of work suit and leather shoes, standing in the middle of the living room, staring at Xu Zhuo's face with wide eyes, with a dazed and dumb expression, and did not speak.
Xu Zhuo approached with a smile, kissed the corner of his mouth, and said softly, "Why are you here? I miss you so much! Don't move, let me hug you first."
Du Ziyou's body was a little cold, Xu Zhuo bent over slightly and lowered his head, buried his head in the other's neck, rubbed his back through the fabric of the suit with his palm, breathed the familiar breath of his sweetheart, and let out a contented hum.
Beauty Huai, Hero Tomb, Xu Zhuo was naturally reluctant to leave Du Ziyou, but he belatedly realized that something was wrong, the body of the person in the arms was a bit too stiff, and his breathing was a little unsteady.
Without knowing it, he straightened up and backed away a little, only to see Du Ziyou's eyes were still wide open when he first saw him, his eye sockets were red, his brows were frowning, and his pale lips trembled slightly.
This lovely face, two black pupils, and pitiful thin lips clearly expressed endless grievances. The moment he met Xu Zhuo's eyes, hot tears welled up in his eyes, rustling It fell down with a rustle.
The author has something to say: In order to write the last sentence, I had to write a thick and long chapter.
Thanks to the little angel who irrigated [nutrient solution]:

Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
