CH 258

Hearing that, Zhang Jianian turned off the TV silently and leaned on the sofa without saying a word, like a wooden man who lost his soul.

The problem was a bit serious. She leaned over to Zhang Jianian who was distracted, stretched out her hand and shook it in front of him, “What’s the matter? Your soul hasn’t been in the house these past few days.”

Zhang Jianian’s eyes flickered and he hesitated, “Do you think we should get engaged right away?”

Chu Chu said, “Oh, I see, you are nervous…”

Just as Zhang Jianian was about to confess silently, he listened to her sluggish second half of the sentence, “After all, it’s not easy to be a wealthy wife. I understand that the wealthy are in deep water. No wonder you have been anxious recently.”

Zhang Jianian: “…”

Zhang Jianian saw Chu Chu gloating over misfortune. He was so angry that he stretched out his hand to pinch her face, raised his eyebrows and said, “You look very proud?”

“No…” Chu Chu pretended to be obedient, until Zhang Jianian let go of her. She turned her head and muttered, “I’m just a little proud, not very proud.” 

Zhang Jianian looked at Chu Chu with a big heart and said helplessly, “After the engagement, how will we work together in the company? Have you considered it?”

Yinda Investment was in a critical period for the rise. Chu Chu had finally got good results, but she was going to be engaged to her subordinate. No matter what the truth of the matter was, it would always make the outside world criticize her. Both of them were working in Yinda. Even the colleagues probably wouldn’t accept the truth for a while.

Chu Chu touched her chin. She thought for a moment and tentatively said, “Do you think the company will be forced to drop after the engagement from a high-end private equity firm to a small family-style workshop? Does it look bad for the company’s image?” 

Chu Chu thought about it. The company’s main leaders, him and her, were indeed similar to the small shop owners next to the school.

“It’s not…” Zhang Jianian denied it, but after thinking about it, he felt that her description seemed correct. He changed his words, “…Is that okay?”

Chu Chu said confidently, “That’s okay, Qisheng is a family-style workshop and Yinda is fine.”

She and Old Chu were father and daughter, Lu Xia and Lu Shu were uncles and nephews and they were all family members.

Zhang Jianian: Who on earth was complaining about the Qisheng Group? Why do you openly embark on the old road now?

“If you just care about outsiders’ opinions, the engagement banquet will still be held on schedule, because it doesn’t matter.” Chu Chu paused for a moment and pursed her lips, with a hint of loss in her tone, “But if you want to reconsider it yourself, then postpone it… After all, it is a major event in life.”

She had always been domineering and had never shown such a depressed look, as if she had no confidence in herself.

Zhang Jianian was still sensible, but was instantly overwhelmed by tsunami-like guilt. He was at a loss for what to do. He got clumsy when he explained, “I didn’t mean that…”

Chu Chu bowed her head and said nothing, as if she was about to cry.

Zhang Jianian felt even more flustered. He hugged Chu Chu and whispered softly, “Sorry, we will hold it on schedule, okay?”

He regretted it. He hurt her and was nervous and guilty about it.

Chu Chu was aggrieved, “You don’t have to force yourself. I know that you don’t want to make it public…”

Zhang Jianian quickly denied that. He just wanted to dispel her random thoughts and said indiscriminately, “We can make it public as long as you want to.”

When the actress Chu Chu heard that, she immediately grabbed the evidence and said, “It’s okay to make it public in the form of a show?”

Zhang Jianian: “…”

Zhang Jianian looked at her clean face. He had been deceived several times. How could he still have no memory of her Oscar-level acting skills?

Was it true that he committed crimes in his previous life and had to be deceived for a lifetime?
