The Pentium Era - South to North

Gu Shufang took a bath, changed into a nightgown, and walked back. Down below, Xiao Lin had come back and was howling. Gu Shufang closed the door, looked at Zhang Chen, and found that Zhang Chen was also watching her walk in. The two of them understood each other. With a smile, Gu Shufang walked over, and the two hugged for a while. Zhang Chen lowered his voice and said to her, I am going to finish the painting tonight, and it will be very late. You should go to bed first.

Gu Shufang shook her head: "No, I like to watch you draw."

She combed her hair that was not completely dry, walked to the chair at the back, and sat down. The chair was very big. She curled up on one side of the chair and quietly watched Zhang Chen draw. After watching for a while, she thought Thinking that Zhang Chen must be tired, or she couldn't help herself, she stood up, walked over quietly like a cat, hugged Zhang Chen from behind, and pressed her face against his back.

Zhang Chen put down his pen, turned around, and the two hugged again.

Gu Shufang smiled softly: "I won't disturb you anymore, just go ahead and draw."

Zhang Chen also smiled.

Gu Shufang returned to the chair, still curled up on one side, holding a cushion to her chest, watching quietly. After a while, she came over again. Zhang Chen felt that the timing of her arrival was always just right, as if it was just the right time. He came during the intermission, and he just missed her a little in his heart. Before he could look back, her hands softly wrapped around his waist.

At about one o'clock, Gu Shufang stood up, walked to Zhang Chen's side, leaned close to his ear, and whispered to him, paint well, I will make you a midnight snack, and walked out after saying that.

Only then did Zhang Chen feel that he was indeed hungry.

Ten minutes later, Gu Shufang came back and brought him a large bowl of seafood noodles with plenty of toppings, including shrimps, crabs, squid rings, scallops, and a few small abalones. Zhang Chen tasted it and found the taste. It was very delicious. At the moment, he didn't care whether it looked good or not, and ate it with a slurp.

Gu Shufang smiled softly and kept shouting from the side, "Slow down, eat slower."

"I can't help it, it's so delicious that I can't slow down." Zhang Chen said.

Zhang Chen finished a large bowl of noodles in a few minutes. Gu Shufang took the bowl out and Zhang Chen picked up the brush and continued painting.

When Gu Shufang came back, she continued to sit on the chair and watch. She also felt strange. She was just sitting and watching Zhang Chen draw. Why didn't she feel sleepy at all?

Zhang Chen painted until more than three o'clock, and finally finished the painting. Gu Shufang came over, Zhang Chen hugged her, and the two of them stared at the drawing board. Zhang Chen asked: "How was it?"

Gu Shufang sighed: "I really hope I can work there."

Zhang Chen found that when Gu Shufang evaluated the quality, she would always put herself into it. Looking at the renderings of the Bayview Hotel, she would say, I must go to this hotel to stay. Looking at this picture, she said that she hopes very much. Work here.

Zhang Chen smiled softly. Knowing that she really liked her, he turned his head and kissed her on the forehead.

Gu Shufang pointed to the renderings and asked softly: "When this is over, you come back to Suzhou with me, and we can open a company like this, okay?"

Zhang Chen was stunned for a moment. Although he was with Gu Shufang every day and liked her from the bottom of his heart, Zhang Chen never thought about returning to Suzhou with her.

But in fact, this is something he has to face. The Wanghai Tower project will be completed in a few months. Gu Shufang has told Zhang Chen more than once that as soon as this place is over, she will return to Suzhou immediately. , she couldn't bear to stay in Haicheng for one more day.

When Gu Shufang said this, she would add another sentence: "Fortunately, I have you, thank you!"

Zhang Chen understood. It turned out that it had long been part of Gu Shufang's plan to follow her back to Suzhou, but he had never even thought about it.

Just muddle along like this?

Gu Shufang glanced at Zhang Chen and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Zhang Chen shook his head and concealed it: "I didn't think about anything, I'm just a little sleepy."

Gu Shufang said "hmm".

They returned to the bedroom. Zhang Chen wanted to set the alarm clock, but Gu Shufang said no, just sleep well and I'll call you at noon.

Zhang Chen thought about it, and there would be nothing going on in the morning at the construction site. Sun Hou and Liu Ligan didn't know whether they had gone home or not. When they got up, it would be almost noon, and Zhang Chen listened to Gu Shufang.

At noon, Gu Shufang woke Zhang Chen up and asked him to wash his face, brush his teeth and have lunch. When Zhang Chen walked to the bathroom, he habitually looked down. Gu Shufang smiled softly and said: "What time is it? They Left early."

In the restaurant, Gu Shufang had already prepared the meal. Zhang Chen saw that Gu Shufang's eyes were a little red and swollen, and said with pity, I can just have a quick snack on the way, you don't have to get up to cook.

"How is this possible?" Gu Shufang said, "With me here, I have to make sure that you are not only full, but also well-fed. You can't be careless. Besides, I have a whole afternoon to catch up on your sleep."

After dinner, Zhang Chen and Gu Shufang hugged each other goodbye and walked toward Wanghai Tower with the album on their backs. The question that was still on their minds along the way was: Gu Shufang was going back to Suzhou, should he go with her?

Emotionally, he felt that he could not live without Gu Shufang, but intellectually, they went to Suzhou. What would be the final result?

You must know that Gu Shufang is alone here. When she is with her, it is a world of two people. When she returns to Suzhou, she not only has parents, but also a daughter, and her daughter is almost as tall as herself. How can I Live with them?

Another point is that my career in Haicheng has just started. I have a good start. It is time to show my ambitions. Should I just give up like this?

Especially now that Liu Ligan has made a good start, Zhang Chen feels that this is the time when they can encourage each other, support each other, and compete with each other, so he is willing to leave like this?

Zhang Chen was so overwhelmed that he walked to the office and couldn't think of a result.

Zhang Chen dialed the number of Liu Ligan's office, but the phone kept busy. He grabbed Liu Ligan. When Liu Ligan came back, Zhang Chen asked, "You haven't gone to the office yet?"

"My office is gone."

"Ah!" Zhang Chen was startled, and then he remembered that Mr. Tan's people had already entered the venue.

"Old Tan so fast?" Zhang Chen asked.

"Yes, my office was completely demolished in one morning. Now Sun Hou and I are here in Qihang."

"I've already done it here." Zhang Chen said, "How about we meet at Lao Tan's place?"

Liu Ligan shouted, so fast?

When Liu Ligan answered the phone, he pressed the speakerphone. Sun Hou also heard the content of their call. He was a little surprised when Zhang Chen said that he was fine. He couldn't help but give a thumbs up, flexed twice, and then Nodding, Liu Ligan and Zhang Chen said, "Sun Hou also said, great! Let's go to Lao Tan's place right now."

After putting down the phone, Zhang Chen called several team leaders and Cao Guoqing over to explain the matters on the construction site. Then he walked to Wuzhishan Road with the picture folder on his back and called a taxi to Huaxin Building.

When Zhang Chen arrived, Liu Ligan and Sun Hou were already in Mr. Tan's office. The three of them were sitting there, waiting anxiously for Zhang Chen. As soon as Zhang Chen walked in, Liu Ligan snatched his painting folder.

The three of them walked to the conference table. Liu Ligan quickly opened the folder and saw the renderings inside. Sun Shengguo slapped the table and shouted, "No problem, this is it!"

Mr. Tan stood on the side and nodded frequently.

Sun Shengguo and Mr. Tan said, OK, what should we do next?

Mr. Tan looked at Zhang Chen. Zhang Chen understood and said with a smile: "Okay, I will send the Buddha to the west and ask Qiaoqiao to help me. I haven't done it for a long time and my hand is raw."

Qiaoqiao is the cashier of Tan Corporation. Zhang Chen understands that Mr. Tan just looked at him and wanted him to help with the project budget. Indeed, except Zhang Chen, no one else can do this budget. What can you do? If you don’t know what materials the place uses, how can you figure out the price?

Asking Qiaoqiao to help, Zhang Chen knew that Sun Hou was still waiting for the quotation and signed the contract with Mr. Tan, which he needed to complete as soon as possible. Having someone to help calculate could save him a lot of time.

Zhang Chen and Qiaoqiao were in the conference room, calculating the budget for more than an hour. Zhang Chen and Qiaoqiao said, go and ask Mr. Tan to come over.

Qiaoqiao understands that before giving the budget to the client, Mr. Tan must first review it to see if there is anything that needs to be added or subtracted.

Mr. Tan followed Qiaoqiao in, and Zhang Chen gave him the budget. Mr. Tan took a look at it and understood that Zhang Chen knew that the work was tight and the workers needed to work overtime. The budget had been relaxed a little. He said yes, so be it.

Mr. Tan and Zhang Chen returned to Mr. Tan's office. Mr. Tan gave Sun Shengguo the budget and told him that because he had to meet the construction deadline, labor and materials would be more expensive than usual, so the budget was a little wider.

"I understand," Sun Shengguo said.

"Also, in some places, there may be additions during actual construction." Zhang Chen and Sun Hou said.

"No problem, the pole will be fixed when the time comes." Sun Hou said, "I still say what I said, as long as it is not outrageous, we will have no problem here. Mr. Tan, you just need to give me a guarantee of time."

"I can guarantee this." Mr. Tan said.

"Okay, no more talking, let's sign." Sun Hou said.
