He was laughing.

That kind of smile was not common.

Because his eyes were filled with a gentle, fragmented, and shallow sheen, the outline of his handsome face was particularly dazzling because of his shallow smile.

This is against the rules, Su Qiao An thought.

"Mr. Chu, I'll have to trouble you to take care of this matter." she said politely.

Zhu Jiangci looked to be in a good mood, "It's my honor."

After it was said, she could actually treat Zhu Jiangci normally.

Li Quan was a person who understood how to enjoy life.

He walked around the central fountain and down the cobblestone path to the parking lot.

She and Zhu Jiangci got in the car together, one in front and one behind, and sat in the back.

The pile of documents on the back seat had all been moved to the front passenger seat.

On the way back to the city, Lin Yan felt awkward, because there were clearly three living people inside the car, but the two at the back did not say a word.

When he sent Su Qiao An to the law firm and they got off the carriage, Su Qiao An said, "The autumn weather is dry, you can stew some warm and nourishing soup. If you don't like it too sweet, I'll send you the recipe later."

"Alright."

This miraculous, yet simple, conversation made Lin Yan surprised. Could it be that the two of them were still maintaining contact with each other?

Thinking about it, the CEO hadn't changed her phone number in the past few years.

There were not so many romantic reasons, simply because their president was lazy to the point where it was difficult for something within his power to come to him.

For example, cooking.

Zhu Jiangci had just started to learn how to cook. At that time, Lin Yan had felt that Zhu Jiangci did not have this talent.

He had an awkward feeling of balance in his heart.

Look, a proud son of heaven also has a weakness.

However, a genius was a genius.

Ninety-nine percent effort + one percent talent. This kind of formula was not equal to normal people, but it was enough for Zhu Jiangci.

Lin Yan was fortunate enough to be a witness. When he was a chef, one week ago, he was still the creator of a disaster in the kitchen.

However, it was clear that their CEO was using cooking as a method to gain no benefits. He would not cook.

Why are you thinking about this?

Because...

Three days after signing the contract with the RG Consortium, Lin Yan came over to deliver the documents to Zhu Jiangci who was resting at home.

When he arrived, Zhu Jiangci was cooking a pot of soup.

When he walked into the living room, he could smell the fragrance coming from the kitchen. There was even a faint smell of medicine.

Lin Yan was very surprised, but in the next moment he felt relieved.

From that day onwards, he came to a conclusion.

The laziness of a CEO could only be driven by benefits. If it was a certain someone who was more important than benefits, then it was truly a golden saying, a word that was worth thousands of gold.

What's even more hilarious is that the CEO's cough was really cured by this random method of warming up to medicinal food. At that time, everyone in the company started to imitate the CEO's medicinal food rules, even the company's canteen.

When Lin Yan smelled the faint aroma of the medicine, he wanted to puke, but he managed to suppress the force of the wind.

November 3.

The RG Consortium sent the project manager to contact the company.

Lin Yan arranged for them to stay in the conference room and explained to them how their CEO still needed fifteen more minutes or so to arrive at the company.

Initially, he thought that RG's people would be more furious and that their company did not value this collaboration. Unexpectedly, the woman in the lead had a gentle smile and did not mind at all.

Fifteen minutes later.

Zhu Jiangci arrived as promised.

The moment he entered the meeting room, the woman who was originally sitting calmly stood up and greeted him with a smile, "Young Master Chu."

Zhu Jiangci slightly nodded, calm and distant.

The woman was startled and then introduced herself, "I am RG's representative, my name is Cheng Ya."

She carefully looked at Zhu Jiangci, only that when she said her name out loud, Zhu Jiangci was still as cold as ever, with not a single ripple in the depths of his eyes.

She refused to give up. "Speaking of which, we can be considered old acquaintances."

She purposely said those words in an ambiguous manner.

Hearing that, Zhu Jiangci lazily raised his eyes and looked at her.

Cheng Ya was very nervous, he stiffened up for him to look at.

Who knew that Zhu Jiangci would only glance at her lazily, "I don't."

Dead silence.

The situation was very awkward.

Cheng Ya could not even hold on to the smile on his face.

She had been preparing to meet him since two days ago, to work out, to control her diet, to make herself look slimmer.

Early this morning, she had woken up to do some styling, choosing clothes and shoes, even putting on makeup for almost three hours. After confirming that she was perfect, she went out.

Zhu Jiangci's light and elegant words made her restless heart return to its original position.

"It's alright, I believe that in the future, Young Master Chu will slowly familiarize himself with me." Cheng Ya regained his confidence.

It's fine, even a woman like Su Qiao An could walk to his side, let alone me. Compared to Su Qiao An, she had to be more outstanding. Cheng Ya kept hinting to himself in his heart.

"Can we start now?" Zhu Jiangci asked.

Cheng Ya retracted his thoughts, and began doing his job dutifully.

No doubt she was a very good employee.

Zhu Jiangci also liked to interact with smart people. As long as they raised a little, they would be able to make a difference, and for their cooperation, this was a win-win situation.

After the discussion, Zhu Jiangci still had a meeting to attend, so he did not have time to accompany them.

Just as Cheng Ya wanted to say a few more words to him, he turned around and left.

Lin Yan stayed behind to take care of the aftermath. Cheng Ya only saw Zhu Jiangci's distant figure.

She wasn't willing to accept this.

For this day, she had already worked very hard. She had also felt it, that Zhu Jiangci clearly had feelings for her, but why did he speak so little? He was even stingy in giving her a chance to approach him.

The first battle ended in defeat, while Cheng Ya was disheartened.

But then again, for a man with an outstanding career like Zhu Jiangci, it would definitely be hard to find a solution. Otherwise, she wouldn't have to wait so long for an opportunity that was close to her.

She believed that she was in no way inferior to anyone, and that Zhu Jiangci would slowly realize her good fortune.

On November 25th, after half a month of cooperation, Cheng Ya saw Zhu Jiangci quite a few times, but she discovered that the man's gaze only stayed on her for a very short time.

Cheng Ya's mood rose and fell like riding a roller coaster. Sometimes it was as if he was thrown into the clouds, and sometimes it was as if he fell down to the bottom of a valley.

It wasn't easy for her to find an opportunity to be alone in Zhu Jiangci's office.

She looked around, ran her hand along the edge of the desk, and sat where he sat, content.

She really liked him. Sitting in this position, she felt as if Zhu Jiangci was embracing her from behind.

Cheng Ya's gaze moved slightly, and from the corner of his eyes, he saw a corner of a photo in the folder, causing him to be slightly startled.
