gentle control

It's said to be half an hour, but it's really not more than a minute or not more than a second.

After talking about business, I came out of the study and met Gu Yusheng who was walking downstairs after changing his clothes.

The girl wears a mint white long skirt with spaghetti straps, and a women's silhouette black suit. Half of her slightly curly long hair is pinned with a small pearl hairpin, and the other side hangs naturally and smoothly on her shoulders. Her temperament is fresh, clean, and translucent. Just the right amount of pure rhyme and gentleness.

Xie Nanjin looked at her carefully and made a fair comment: "Our Shengsheng's clothes tonight are more ladylike than usual."

Really?

Seeing Zhou Zongyan closing the study door, when he turned around, Gu Yusheng smiled and stood next to him.

The meaning is obvious.

Wear this women's suit specifically because it can be paired with a couple's outfit.

Xie Nanjin didn't want to understand it immediately.

However, it was too sour tonight.

Thinking of the little girl who had followed him sweetly and called her uncle since she was a child, but now she was holding someone else's arm, I felt like an old father sending his daughter off to get married, unintentionally bursting into tears and regretting it.

People are really mean.

At first, I always talked about "being for her own good", but in fact, as the wedding day got closer and closer, the reluctance in my heart became stronger and stronger.

Xie Nanjin thought, on the day Shengsheng got married, his brother-in-law, who was calm and composed in everything he did, wondered if he could still hold his nerve.

In the corridor, a pair of people match each other perfectly.

Xie Nanjin looked resentful.

Out of sight, out of mind, he went downstairs without looking back.

Behind him, Gu Yusheng felt confused, "Uncle, something is wrong tonight."

The feeling of something wrong started after Zhou Zongyan came back.

Where is the problem?
After contemplating for a while, Gu Yusheng's clear eyes widened instantly as she thought of a certain possibility.

No way.

While he was thinking wildly, his head was gently nudged by Zhou Zongyan, "This is life, not a script. Don't think nonsense."

Oh.

How could she suspect that her uncle had unwanted thoughts about her boyfriend?

Simply outrageous.

Not long after Xie Nanjin left, the driver stopped outside the gate of the villa.

When getting on the bus, Gu Yusheng asked, "Have you finished the work in Hong Kong City?"

Zhou Zongyan leaned over to fasten her seat belt and said in a gentle tone: "If you want to stay a few more days, we will return to Beijing later. If you feel homesick, we can leave early tomorrow morning."

homesick.

The girl smiled and said, "A little bit, but after we go back, we won't be able to see each other every day."

She thought about this question very seriously.

Zhou Zongyan chuckled.

He scratched her worried face with his fingers and said warmly: "There are many ways to meet, as long as you want."

"Like?" she asked.

The man crossed his long legs and put one hand on his knee, tilting his head slightly toward her, "If I join the investment department, I should be in the company about two days a week."

Only two days.

Gu Yusheng felt it was far from enough.

Moreover, she raised concerns: "As a small employee, I often go to the board of directors' office. If someone sees me, it will be easy for rumors to spread."

"What rumors are spreading?"

The girl's face was full of seriousness: "My colleagues will talk behind my back, saying that I have bad intentions, trying to seduce Director Jay, and covet the position of the wife of a wealthy family."

The more Zhou Zongyan listened, the more he felt something was wrong.

Two seconds of silence.

However, he did not refute, and could only ask calmly: "According to this, what does Shengsheng have in mind?"

The person beside him breathed a sigh of relief.She suggested seriously: "How about I stop hiding it and point out directly that I got in through the back door and relied on nepotism."

Zhou Zongyan continued to ask: "Then tell me what the specific relationship is."

Words to the mouth.

Gu Yusheng tried hard to contain his excitement and deliberately hesitated for a few seconds.

Then, carefully, he counted them with his fingers and listed them one by one, "Cousin, cousin, uncle, etc. I will choose whatever Mr. Zhou wants me to call you."

This time, Zhou Zongyan came back to his senses.

Therefore, it was a lie to meet him every day, and it was her ultimate goal to hide her relationship with him.

Zhou Zongyan smiled faintly and said, "I can do whatever it takes to be innocuous."

The girl's face lit up with joy, and when she was about to speak, she was interrupted by the man again.

"But based on this premise, I may need to make my own demands," he said.

What appeal?
Gu Yusheng looked at him and expressed that he was all ears.

The street scene outside the window slowly receded. Zhou Zongyan put his hands on his folded knees and was silent for a moment before slowly opening his lips. "I have two suggestions. Change your position and become my accompanying secretary. You will learn as much as you did when I was here." Investment Department for half a year. Please consider this carefully and don’t rush to give me an answer."

The atmosphere was originally peaceful, but because the man's tone was so calm, Gu Yusheng had a gut feeling that this matter might not be so easy to negotiate.

He wasn't kidding her.

After returning to his thoughts, Gu Yusheng said softly: "The second point, is it what I thought?"

Mentioning this, Zhou Zongyan's expression softened a lot, he curled his lips, and looked at her quietly, calmly but as if he understood everything, "Since you can guess what I want to say, does it mean that the first suggestion has already been made?" You were left out.”

His little thoughts were seen through.

Gu Yusheng was a little surprised.

She blushed and didn't dare to look at him, not sure if she had thought clearly.

I know the second point he wants to say is, living together.

It seems natural for adult men and women to fall in love and live together.

But she was still nervous.

Both expectant and confused.

While the person next to her waited patiently, she pondered for a long time, and finally turned her head slowly and met his eyes, "Can I tell my mother about this matter and ask for her and father's opinions?"

Zhou Zongyan nodded gently: "Living together is not a trivial matter, and parents have the right to know."

In a century-old family, self-restraint and etiquette are engraved in the upbringing. No matter how strong the selfish desires are, respect comes first in front of the basic principles.

Gu Yusheng's mood eased.

She was thinking about what Boss Zhou would do if Lao Gu and Ms. Xie disagreed.

Do we really want her to be a traveling secretary?

But compared to job replacement, she prefers the latter.

Because she also wants to see him every day and every moment.

If you go to the investment department, he is often away from the company, and it is difficult to overlap with his schedule after get off work every day, and you may not see him more than a few times a month.

If we live together, at least we can say good night to each other when the tired birds return to the forest at night.

With this thought in mind, the car slowly drove into the underground garage of a high-end restaurant in Central.

At the VIP elevator entrance, the waiter was waiting in advance and respectfully stepped forward to open the back seat door for the guest.

Gu Yusheng got out of the car and waited for Zhou Zongyan to join him. She took his arm and took the elevator to the top of the restaurant under the guidance of the waiter.

There is a faint cold fragrance in the air, a Western-style design and decoration, and elegant violin melody flowing quietly amidst the fragrant fragrance of fresh red roses.

The meal was slightly more formal.

Zhou Zongyan pulled out the chair for her like a gentleman, put his hand on her shoulder, and thoughtfully helped her take off her suit jacket and handed it to the waiter who was waiting politely next to her.

When he sat down, Gu Yusheng raised his eyes to the person opposite and asked him, "Is this our first date?"

Zhou Zongyan nodded: "Of course."
