This was especially the case for this woman. She was Ji Yun, who had been sent a bunch of photos three years ago saying that she was Simon's fiancée.

She still hadn't forgotten the words on the envelope. It was hard for a person to forget the moment when he would be honored. It was also hard to forget how he would be humiliated.

He Qingyu, who had driven a fast car the whole way home, felt an indescribable loneliness when he walked into the house.

The interior of the house was completely dark. Not even the lights were on, and the surroundings were extremely quiet. When he had lived alone in the past, he had never felt this way at all. However, during this period of time, he slept and ate together with Zhou Xuanqing every day. Unknowingly, he had already gotten used to it.

Did she not come back?

He quickly put down his car keys and went upstairs without taking off his clothes.

When he opened the bedroom door and saw the curled up body on the bed, his originally anxious heart slowly relaxed.

She didn't come back, she just slept.

He Qingyu thought to himself as he walked lightly into the bathroom. After he had climbed out of bed, he did not disturb the sleeping Zhou Xuanqing lying on his side. Instead, he lay down flat on the ground, closed his eyes, and fell into a deep sleep.

It was only when there was no more sound from behind that Zhou Xuan Qing finally dared to open his eyes.

Staring into the darkness of the room, she kept her mouth shut, feeling indescribably confused.

He didn't have a clue, but he couldn't reconcile with himself.

She did not sleep well that night. She woke up soon after dawn. Looking at the warm sun outside the window, he decided to get up early.

Not long ago, she came home with her clothes. After a simple wash, he changed into a sports suit, put on his shoes, and started running around the small forest in the yard.

As for these, He Qingyu, who woke up after hearing a noise nearby, changed into casual clothes and then peeked out of the window.

As the clockwork on the wall continued to sway, he would occasionally frown at Zhou Xuanqing, who had run past under the window. He roughly counted that the woman had already run nine laps around the villa.

The front yard of the villa wasn't that big, but the back yard was especially spacious. If they really were to run, it would be quite arduous.

He really couldn't understand what was going on with the woman below him. Before this, he hadn't been able to see that she was a very active person. What happened today? He actually forced himself to run for so long.

Had this woman taken the wrong medicine?

Seeing Zhou Xuanqing's figure about to disappear into the small path in the backyard, and looking as if he was about to continue, He Qingyu couldn't stand it any longer.

Without a second thought, he turned around and walked down the stairs.

Then, he started running.

He ran very quickly, and before long, he had caught up with the already exhausted Zhou Xuanqing. With a cold expression, he blocked his path without saying a word.

Zhou Xuan Qing felt a little dizzy. She didn't expect that running was so tiring. However, the messy thoughts in his heart seemed to have improved a lot, as if they were no longer as important as before.

When he saw He Qingyu blocking in front of him, he hurriedly withdrew his leg to avoid colliding with him.

"You … "Why are you …"

Because he had been running for too long, his throat was burning and he couldn't stop himself from gasping. She was unable to speak, so she could only unclearly ask.

Seeing Zhou Xuqing's perspiring appearance, He Qingyu's frown deepened. "From what I can see, you don't have much meat on you, so you don't need to run to lose weight."

I'm too thin

Zhou Xuanqing narrowed his eyes and placed his hands on his waist. He pushed it back and said, "You don't have to lose weight to exercise, you can still exercise."

She spoke with a righteous tone, waiting for He Qingyu's answer.

"There are many ways to do fitness work, but the condition is to not exceed the body's capacity. I saw you run so far that you almost fainted. This isn't fitness, it's more like suicide. "

Just as Zhou Xuanqing was about to reply, "What a joke. Who would ever commit suicide by running?" His cold voice rang out again.

"American news once reported that there were couples who were too obese to lose weight quickly. Not long after that, during a run, he died of sudden overwork. "

Zhou Xuanqing was rendered speechless by these words, his mouth wide open in shock.

Seeing that he had said enough, He Qingyu turned around and walked back first, leaving behind only a sentence.

"I'm still waiting for you to prepare breakfast."

Zhou Xuanqing, who had been standing still, was stunned by what he had heard. He couldn't help but curse in his heart, "You're obviously rich and powerful, don't you have the ability to hire a babysitter?"

God knows how she hated having to go to the kitchen every day when she got home.

But no matter how reluctant she was, she had to go into the kitchen and prepare breakfast for He Qingyu.

The Zhou Corporation and the He Group had different directions, but there was still some distance between them. Soon after they finished their breakfast and drove out, they separated in the driveway.

The traffic wasn't too heavy. After Zhou Xuanqing drove the car to the company, he took his briefcase and entered the company to work wholeheartedly.

Near the end of the day, she was informed that an emergency meeting was being held at the company.

He didn't have time to eat, so he could only call his assistant to help him book a quick meal.

When he walked out of the meeting room, he heard whispers from the other executives of the company that passed by.

"Have you heard? This time, the higher-ups sent another manager over, saying that it was a woman. "She has a strong background, and she was the one who asked for this emergency meeting to be held on the spur of the moment."

Another person bowed his head and said, "So that's how it is. I didn't understand it before! It's already time to get off work and come to participate in the meeting. " At the same time, he did not forget to flatter, "I say, Director Chen, your information is really well-informed."

The upper echelons were definitely the He Group. Zhou Xueqing, who hadn't heard about it from He Qingyu earlier, frowned as he listened. Following their gazes, they discovered that the person who was called Director Chen was the one who had deliberately refuted them about his arrival in front of the board members a few days ago, Chen Qijian, who had dared to use this design plan to fool the Elders.

Chen QIjian, the director of personnel department. Entered Zhou's enterprise for three years.

When Zhou Xuanqing looked over, Chen Qijian also noticed her. Raising his hand to move his glasses, he lightly pursed his lips in disdain before taking the lead to enter the meeting room with the person beside him.

Zhou Xuanqing shook his head helplessly. He had no idea how she had managed to provoke such a person. After what happened that day, she could tell that this Chen Qijian was rather hostile towards her.

The meeting had taken place abruptly, but the directors and senior executives had all rushed over in succession.

When the entire meeting room was fully dressed, the rumored person who had been transferred to the General Manager's position had yet to arrive.

From this, it could be seen that the other party's beginning was indeed very big.

Compared to the day when Zhou Xuanqing suddenly took over as the director of the design department, the higher-ups and directors had an intense reaction. Today, everyone was abnormally silent.

During the entire wait, no one spoke a word.
