Shen He: Not yet, sooner or later.
Seeing this reply, Zhou Yang threw the phone into the card slot, fastened the seatbelt, started the car, drove out not long after, WeChat beeped again.
He paused at the red light, glanced.
Su Hao: Zhou Yang, thank you, so thoughtful, very grateful.
Su Hao finished drinking milk, picked up the book and flipped, a few minutes later, phone rang, she casually picked it up, looked.
Zhou Yang: You’re welcome.
Su Hao looked a few times, then slowly put down the phone, mood much calmer than before, no longer fluctuating like when first arrived. Between her and him, separated by a galaxy, she didn’t even know what he liked, loved, how could she dare talk about liking back then.
Before sleeping, Su Hao video-called mother, mother just recovered from illness, face pale, but smiling, said: “These two days I’ve been walking in the garden, strolling, breathing fresh air, feeling much better.”
“Show me the environment there.”
Su Hao had to turn on the light in the room, wore slippers, got off the bed, said: “Two bedrooms, one living room, rent not expensive, when your body is better, come visit, there’s a place to stay here.”
“Good.” Mother’s gaze swept around, finding the house old but indeed quite large, “Very good, Su Qian found this for you?”
“No.” Su Hao finished speaking, paused. Mother, stunned, after a while, asked with a smile: “Zhou Yang should also be getting married, right? Their families surely value matching social status.”
Leaning on the sofa armrest, Su Hao understood mother’s meaning. Initially mother told her not to think too much, Su Hao looked up, smiled: “Mm, I know.”
Cheng Ling spoke up to her, knowing daughter understood, did not continue, just said: “Still have money? I put a card in your black coat in the suitcase.”
“Mom!”
“That card I left for you to use.” Su Hao said, turned back to room, went to look through coat, Cheng Ling gently smiled, “I don’t need that much money, you outside not easy…”
Pulled out the card, Su Hao helpless, looked at mother on video, mother and daughter eyebrows similar, temperament similar, stared for a while.
Su Hao glared.
Cheng Ling smiled, gentle.
The two chatted for a while, then ended the video, glanced at time, very late, Su Hao returned to bed, put down the phone, turned off the light, and went to sleep.
The next day Su Hao got up early, made breakfast, ate, and walked to work.
Chen Yu and Zhang Xian were already there, both eating breakfast. The office smelled of fried rice noodles and soup rice noodles, and Su Hao greeted them.
“Chen Yu, Zhang Xian Jie, morning.”
“Morning, yesterday’s □□ Did you organize? Organized, handed together to General Manager Zeng.” Zhang Xian handed a stack of forms, also an account book, to the desk. Su Hao walked over to take, Chen Yu suddenly hurriedly picked up a stack of reimbursement forms, mouth still holding rice noodles, “I…I forgot to record last night, Su Hao, you first help record these, then hand them together.”
“Why always like this? Things of the day not done the same day.” Lu Mimi just came in, directly scolded, and casually put down an apple and a box of milkshakes.
Chen Yu mumbled with rice noodles: “They only handed in after work, all insisting today must report, I finished for them already past work time.”
“Pfft, useless.”
“You…”
Su Hao quickly stepped forward, took over, said: “I’ll do, I’ll do.”
Took reimbursement forms, returned to desk, sat down, lowered head to sort, then record, during which, Assistant to General Manager Zeng called twice to urge.
Because Su Hao did it, he urged Su Hao.
Su Hao a bit flustered, but steadied, even if not fast, must not do poorly, Chen Yu finally finished breakfast, dragged the chair over to help.
But Su Hao was almost done, both checked numbers, matched, Su Hao carried all the account books and tickets, and walked to General Manager Zeng’s office.
Just stepped out, glanced at time, didn’t expect over an hour delay, now almost ten-thirty, overtime submission, Su Hao a bit nervous, tapped the door with fingers.
“Come in.” Behind the door, General Manager Zeng’s voice.
Su Hao pushed the door, entered, placed items on the big desk, and General Manager Zeng didn’t look at her, staring at computer reports, tone flat: “What time?”
“Ten thirty.” Su Hao heart skipped, replied.
“Still know the time.” General Manager Zeng reached, flipped the account book, eyes on freshly coded reimbursement forms, handwriting elegant, clear.
“Don’t let me be urged next time.” He glanced, casually closed.
“Yes.”
Su Hao nodded.
“Out.”
Su Hao breathed out, quickly turned, but immediately saw Zhou Yang sitting on the sofa, long legs crossed, drinking coffee, handsome face, flipping magazine, head not lifted.
Su Hao was stunned.
Then hurried to the door, after outside, paused slightly, walked to the office, returned to the desk, and phoned some news push, Su Hao opened to see.
Front dark, Su Hao raised head, met Chen Yu’s face, Chen Yu cleared throat, pulled a chair to sit, hand on desk, and said: “That, just now were you scolded by General Manager Zeng?”
Su Hao put down the phone, “Yes, next time before work ends, we finish things together.”
Chen Yu immediately relaxed, hurriedly nodding: “Good, good.”
Her face also improved.
Su Hao smiled.
Whole day quite busy, afternoon a meeting, many attended, Zhang Xian also went, but Zhou Yang seemed angry, man in meeting room, silent, table full of complaint forms, after meeting, everyone face pale, Zhang Xian face also pale, soon, a group walked past door, Zhou Yang leading, strode away.
After he left.
Zhang Xian’s face is better.
Lu Mimi asked: “What happened?”
Zhang Xian ignored Lu Mimi, Chen Yu pulled Lu Mimi’s sleeve, signaled don’t ask.
Then, the office atmosphere slowly got better, Su Hao focused on work, before leaving to handle reimbursement forms with Chen Yu.
Almost six, left work.
Carrying a small bag, walked out the elevator, just arrived in the lobby, saw a red Maserati drive over, screeched to a stop at the door.
The car door opened, Li Xiu took off sunglasses, long legs stepped out, immediately saw Su Hao, raised an eyebrow, took the phone, and dialed Zhou Yang.
One minute later, I removed the phone, called Su Hao: “Off work?”
Su Hao was about to walk to the sidewalk, paused, and replied, “Yes.”
“Zhou Yang not in company?” Li Xiu is arrogant.
Su Hao paused, “Seems left this afternoon.”
“Oh, really.” Li Xiu looked at her bland face, paused, and said: “Where going? I will send you.”
“Thanks, no need.”
Li Xiu’s personality is flamboyant.
Su Hao has not adapted.
“No, I must send you.” Li Xiu stared at her, not sure of the woman’s intuition, heart beating fast seeing Su Hao.
Su Hao frowned.
“You don’t let me send, I will follow.” Li Xiu tapped the car door.
Su Hao looked at her, seconds later about to speak, Li Xiu phone rang, picked up, eyebrows brightened.
Then answered, coquettishly: “Zhou Yang!”
“Why not pick up calls?”
“I came to your company.”
Not sure whether intentionally or not, put on the speaker.
There.
Man’s deep voice casually: “How many calls have you made, hmm?”
“Can’t find you…”
“Can’t find the phone bomb, who taught you?”
Su Hao walked to the sidewalk, the figure disappeared at the intersection, could not hear chat content, and yesterday bought groceries that were not cooked.
Went upstairs, started cooking, simply boiled soup, stir-fried one dish, ate alone at table, after eating.
One bowl, several plates, quickly washed.
Wiped hands, returned to the living room, sat on the sofa, picked up the phone and glanced.
That six-person group has many messages.
She casually clicked in.
[When Will Love Come (6)]
Chen Yu: Lu Mimi, quick look, Mr. Zhou returned company for Miss Li, two eating in company cafeteria!
Lu Mimi: Shut up, I didn’t see.
Chen Yu: This time Mr. Zhou never refused Miss Li, surely considering marriage.
Lu Mimi: Shut up.
Chen Yu: Hahaha, no chance for you!
Su Hao glanced, excited.
Worked two more days, coincided weekend, Su Qian always asked Su Hao home for meal, Su Hao made lemon boneless chicken feet, brought to Zhou family main house, Su Qian wanted to pick up, Su Hao refused, took taxi herself, Su Qian cooked herself, wore pink apron, seeing Su Hao come, very happy.
Su Hao put lemon chicken feet down.
Su Qian glanced, eyes brightened, “Your mother’s cooking.”
“Yes, Aunt, haven’t eaten for long?” Su Hao opened the box, picked a piece with a toothpick, and offered Su Qian, Su Qian opened mouth, eyes squinted, “So delicious, your mother is always good at this, used to send it to our dorm.”
“Right, she asked me to make more for you.” Su Hao fed Su Qian another bite.
Su Qian bit, looked at Su Hao’s pretty face, sighed inwardly, after a few seconds asked: “Hao Hao, Shen He, how?”
Su Hao paused, put down toothpick, and smiled: “Very good.”
Su Qian still sighed, reached, patted Su Hao’s shoulder, “Hao Hao think carefully, he is really good.”
Didn’t tell Su Hao Shen He’s family background, afraid to scare her. Su Qian held Su Hao’s wrist, “Go, see me show cooking skills.”
Su Hao humored, followed.
Lunch was only for two people. Afterwards, Su Qian said go pick strawberries.
Strawberry farm not far, behind villa area, a mansion, Su Qian friend set up, here a leisure inn, area of golf course, swipe card can enter, Su Qian wore sun hat, gave Su Hao one.
Two went down the slope, like a sneaking pick, grabbed baskets, and walked inward.
Ground muddy, probably watered, Su Hao glad wearing black shoes. Followed by Su Qian crouch, strawberries hidden among green leaves, very tempting.
Su Qian lowered hat, said: “We pick, pick, then leave.”
Su Hao was stunned, “No need to tell the owner?”
“Make her jump.”
Su Hao: “…Okay.”
Her words made Su Hao nervous, lowered hat, and carefully picked. Picked a while, suddenly, a low male voice from high, “Mom?”
Both looked up.
On the slope Zhou Yang wore white shirt black trousers, raised eyebrows, and looked at their sneaky behavior.
A few seconds later, I smiled half-squat, “If Aunt Li knows…”
“Shut up.” Su Qian lifted a blue basket, stood, and shushed several times. Su Hao stood too, saw Su Qian like this, also smiled, in sunlight, soft features, smile with dimples.
Zhou Yang raised eyelids, glanced at her, Su Hao met gaze, then calmly looked away.
Su Qian looked at Su Hao’s basket, quite full, sunlight strong, and pulled Su Hao: “Go, too sunny, pick enough, return home.”
Su Hao obediently followed.
But Su Qian didn’t take the stairs, directly from the steep slope, Zhou Yang reached hand, pulled Su Qian up, Su Qian patted hands, adjusted hat: “Su Hao, you come up too.”
Su Hao handed the basket to Su Qian, not running to the stairs . Luckily, the slope had hold points, easy to climb, held, and pushed up. Man’s big hand at this time reached, naturally grabbed her wrist, pulled up, with enough force, Su Hao quickly up slope, but foot slipped.
Zhou Yang held her waist hard, stepped back a few steps.
Just these few steps.
The woman’s soft fragrance instantly became strong.
