Chapter 347 He just worked overtime to deliver a cake, not to transcend the tribulation!
There is no chance in this life, so I can only pay more attention in the next life.
Zhou Jinyuan chuckled, nodded and said, "It's definitely wrong to help with homework."
As soon as Zhou Jinyuan finished speaking, Chen Xixi stretched out her index finger and shook it in front of him, and said seriously: "No, no, no! The small mistake I mentioned is not that it is wrong to help me with my homework, but that when you help me with my homework in the next life, remember to imitate my handwriting."
Zhou Jinyuan: “…” So it’s this kind of small mistake that should be avoided again. He thought Chen Xixi had become honest, but actually she wasn’t.
Chen Xixi suddenly thought of something and asked, "You are not being so nice to me because you feel guilty about causing me to get beaten up?"
Zhou Jinyuan put the group photo into the album, "This was part of the reason before."
"what about now?"
"Now..." Zhou Jinyuan put the photo album into the drawer of the desk, looked up at Chen Xixi, and said bluntly with his thin lips slightly curved: "Now it's because of you."
"Because of me?" Chen Xixi frowned.
This sounds... a bit like a confession.
But Chen Xixi was completely confused.
Because that’s not what the rich aunt said... Could it be that the rich aunt lied to her?
But what's the point? The Zhou family has no shortage of excellent daughters-in-law.
If Zhou Jinyuan didn't have any flaws, she would definitely not be included in the list of candidates for daughter-in-law that the rich aunt could choose.
Chen Xixi tilted her head, not quite understanding this contradiction.
But tonight was not a complete waste. At least she knew that she did not take up other people's positions or enjoy other people's treatment. This made her feel much more comfortable getting along with Zhou Jinyuan.
She patted Zhou Jinyuan's shoulder again, looking like she valued Zhou Jinyuan very much, and said with emotion: "Your friend is much more reliable than Xu Yichen!"
Every time he directly helped her, stood on her side, and led her to report the casino of Haisheng Group.
If it were the selfish Xu Yichen, he would definitely help those with greater power, whether it was Vice President Wang of Nanxing Entertainment or Haisheng Group. Not only would Xu Yichen not share the same hatred with her, he would even speak for Vice President Wang and Haisheng Group.
When mentioning Xu Yichen, Zhou Jinyuan's face darkened slightly. If it weren't for the damn Xu Nianying's family forcing Chen Xixi's family away, Chen Xixi and Xu Yichen would not have become famous childhood sweethearts on campus, nor would they be said to be a perfect match.
What a match made in heaven.
Is Xu Yichen, that gigolo, worthy of Chen Xixi?
There must be something wrong with those people's eyesight, they can't see Xu Yichen's selfish nature.
Chen Xixi continued, "Seventeen years of friendship is not as good as the relationship we had when we only knew each other for a few days. Sigh, why is the gap between people so big?"
Zhou Jinyuan's deep gaze met Chen Xixi's, with a hint of intrigue between his eyebrows, "You will stay here for more than a few days."
More than a few days?
Chen Xixi was even more confused. The more they talked that day, the less she understood.
However, Zhou Jinyuan did not give her the opportunity to continue asking questions, because he felt that now was not the time to reveal his true colors. After all, Chen Xixi had just sorted out their relationship. If he continued to say anything more, Chen Xixi would probably find it difficult to accept.
He didn't want to put too much pressure on her.
Matters of the heart cannot be rushed.
What's more, Chen Xixi doesn't know him yet. He can't force her to like him just because he likes her.
Zhou Jinyuan took the homework book from Chen Xixi's hand and put it in the drawer. Zhou Jinyuan put his hand on Chen Xixi's shoulder and half-pushed her out of the study.
Assistant Xu was very efficient, and delivered the cake quickly even though Zhou Jinyuan specifically emphasized the need for speed.
Assistant Xu saw the two people coming down from upstairs, and his gossipy eyes moved between them. Then he hid his tired look and said respectfully: "Mr. Zhou, I put the cake on the dining table. If there is nothing else, I will go back first."
Although Assistant Xu was very respectful, Chen Xixi could still see that Assistant Xu's expression seemed a little strange, and even a little bad. Chen Xixi wondered if Assistant Xu was jealous when he saw her and Zhou Jinyuan coming down from upstairs together?
After all, he was once the male owner of this villa.
Love rivals are extremely jealous when they meet.
Although she is not, isn't the mission of the rich aunt sending her here to be a love rival for other men?
Chen Xixi looked at Assistant Xu and quickly said, "No! How about we spend it together?"
Zhou Jinyuan: “?”
Assistant Xu, who was feeling a bit resentful because he didn't want to work overtime, said: "!"
Assistant Xu quickly refused: "No, I have something else to do."
How could he dare to stay and be a light bulb? President Zhou would kill him!
Chen Xixi took two steps forward and stopped Assistant Xu. "What do you want to do so late at night? You can stay here!"
By the way, she also ate some melon.
As for the task of the rich aunt, there is no need to rush.
Take it slow and let her see what's going on first?
She had to figure out first whether the rich aunt was lying or there was really something wrong with Zhou Jinyuan.
Chen Xixi's gossipy eyes quickly moved between Zhou Jinyuan and Assistant Xu.
Assistant Xu, who was stopped, was extremely anxious. What was going on?
Why did the boss lady insist on making him work overtime like a light bulb? !
Assistant Xu could only look at Zhou Jinyuan for help, "Mr. Zhou, please say something..."
Chen Xixi felt deeply moved when she heard the plaintive tone and sad eyes.
At this moment, 108 episodes of bloody and abusive love have been played out in her head.
Zhou Jinyuan didn't understand what was going on, but that didn't stop him from seeing that Chen Xixi cared a lot about him as her assistant.
Zhou Jinyuan looked at Chen Xixi, his eyes darkened: "He still has work to do, let him go back."
Assistant Xu was just about to breathe a sigh of relief that he no longer had to be a light bulb when he heard his boss say heartlessly, "Compile all the contracts for cooperation with Haisheng for me tonight."
"!!!" Assistant Xu felt like the sky had suddenly fallen on him!
He just worked overtime to deliver a cake, not to transcend the tribulation!
Assistant Xu looked like he was about to cry, "Do you want it tonight?"
Zhou Jinyuan was still very ruthless, "Yes."
Assistant Xu cried in his heart: Is there any justice in the world? Is there anyone to make a decision for him? If not, he will make a scene!
Chen Xixi stood aside and watched the show. Zhou Jinyuan must have been so mad at his assistant for no reason, because it seemed that it was shown in the TV series that the deeper the love between two people, the more they will torture each other to death when there are problems in their relationship.
Uh...but the current situation seems to be Zhou Jinyuan torturing me unilaterally...It doesn’t matter. What matters is that there must be something going on between these two people.
Chen Xixi saw Assistant Xu lowering his head, looking aggrieved. She couldn't bear it, so she turned to look at Zhou Jinyuan and said in a gentle voice: "It's so late now, how about tomorrow during the day..."
Chen Xixi had just finished speaking when Zhou Jinyuan shifted his gaze to Chen Xixi. His dark eyes carried a cold, oppressive aura, and Chen Xixi closed her mouth tightly.
Well, matters of the heart are not something she can interfere with.
Assistant Xu gave up and turned around.
Just as he was about to take a step, Zhou Jinyuan's voice came from behind him: "Wait."
Assistant Xu: "!" Could it be that Mr. Zhou has changed his mind? He knew that Mr. Zhou was a good boss!
Chen Xixi: “!” Looks like there’s going to be a reversal!
