"Didn't you ask me to speak up? After I spoke up, you complained that I had too many questions. I told you everything, both positive and negative. Aren't you a weird person..."

Meng Shuyu had been holding it in for three days, but he couldn't help but blurt out a long string of words.

Looking up, Zhou Jun turned his head and looked out the window without refutation.

Meng Shuyu retracted his gaze, and pondered Zhou Jun's words again while steering the wheel, as if he had tasted some hidden meaning.

Just like if the moon is more beautiful than her, he would say the moon is beautiful instead of remaining silent.

If he feels bored, he will say so instead of saying “You have so many questions.”

So maybe he wasn't really complaining that she had too many problems.

It means he's not boring.

He is not bored when he is with her.

My heart, which hadn't been excited for three days, suddenly beat faster.

Meng Shuyu gripped the steering wheel tightly, remained calm, breathed lightly, and glanced at him in the rearview mirror again.

Zhou Jun stared intently at the trees passing by outside the window, but still nothing happened.

It seemed that he just accepted what she understood.

But... it's also true that he hasn't taken the initiative to look for her in the past three days.

Even if he didn't feel bored being with her, he probably didn't find it that "interesting", right

But...something happened at his home, and he just told people it was resolved today. Maybe he was really busy these three days and couldn't take care of so much.

Maybe he would even think that she didn't care about him and gave up so easily.

But she is a girl, and she has already risked her life by chasing him to the hot spring villa. It is understandable that she is angry when she didn't get a response. Can't he spare three minutes to give her reassurance

Alas, but she was the one chasing after him, and she was also the one with a history of being a bad woman. It seems that it is not yet time for him to coax her back...

Meng Shuyu quarreled with himself for a long time. He was discouraged one second and recovered the next. He stepped on the accelerator lightly and heavily.

Zhou Jun was sitting in the back seat, swaying unsteadily. He wanted to say something, but opened his mouth and stopped.

Just think of it as a boat ride.

When the car arrived at the destination, Meng Shuyu temporarily put aside these personal matters, sorted out his mood, and followed Zhou Jun into the convention and exhibition center.

With one week left before the Smart Home Expo, the exhibition halls of various companies have basically been built.

Although Morishei has been on a downward trend in recent years, it has participated in exhibitions every year.

According to past practice, the style is that of "although the performance is not very good, the style and appearance are the best."

When Zhou Jun took office, the design of this year's exhibition hall had already been finalized, with a very technological theme of "Universe and Stars".

Meng Shuyu felt it was flashy, suspended and incongruous at first sight: Moridao was in the kitchen appliance business, how could anyone cook in the universe

As expected, Zhou Jun was also not satisfied, but he did not radically overturn the entire design before establishing his authority. Instead, he proposed a change, replacing the concept of "cosmic stars" with "starry night."

The exhibition hall, which covers an area of 1,000 square meters, is covered with transparent glass walls on all four sides. Outside the walls is the vast starry sky, and inside the wall the kitchen is lit with warm yellow lights, creating an overall atmosphere of mountain camping.

This change adds a touch of homeliness without losing romance, and is indeed the finishing touch.

Although it is not the most ideal solution, Zhou Jun's ability to remedy the situation to this extent when he first took office faced many obstacles has already been regarded as a great effort to turn the tide.

When Meng Shuyu and Zhou Jun arrived at the exhibition hall, the technicians were adjusting the lights.

Seeing Zhou Jun coming for a surprise inspection, a group of employees hurriedly stopped their work and greeted him.

The head of the brand department came forward and said apologetically, "Boss Zhou, Assistant Boss Meng, I didn't know you were coming and didn't prepare in advance. The materials on site are still piled up in a mess, and there's no place to put your feet. How about I accompany you to walk around the area and have someone clean it up quickly?"

Zhou Jun waved his hand: "It's okay, you guys go about your business, I have Assistant Meng to accompany me."

Meng Shuyu also took over the conversation: "Manager Chen, please don't bother. Mr. Zhou is just here to take a look. Don't delay the progress by greeting Mr. Zhou. I will accompany Mr. Zhou for a tour."

"Okay then," Manager Chen took the two cups of tea handed to him by the employee behind him and handed them forward. "Boss Zhou, Assistant Boss Meng, drink your tea. Call me if you need anything."

Meng Shuyu took the tea, handed a cup to Zhou Jun, and entered the exhibition hall with him, acting as a tour guide, telling Zhou Jun about the design details he had learned along the way.

After walking around a circle, the lights were just adjusted and the starry sky outside the glass wall suddenly lit up.

Meng Shuyu looked up and saw the sky full of bright stars. The wide-angle view gave him a sense of vastness. He fixed his eyes and sighed, "It's quite beautiful..."

Zhou Jun raised his head along with her.

Manager Chen saw the two looking up from a distance and called over here, "Boss Zhou, Assistant Boss Meng, if you have any opinions on the lighting effects, please let us know. We are still adjusting them!"

Zhou Jun tilted his head and glanced at Meng Shuyu: "I'm asking you, what do you think?"

"The overall effect has exceeded my expectations. If I have to say something is not good enough..." Meng Shuyu thought for a moment, "Although scientifically speaking, you may not see so many stars in a moonlit sky, but art does not necessarily require logic. I think if I add a moon and the warm yellow light in the wall to echo it, the two scenes inside and outside will blend more harmoniously. What do you think?"

Zhou Jun nodded without seeming to think much, "Then let's pick a moon for Assistant Meng."

Meng Shuyu was stunned when he saw the fleeting smile in his eyes.

When I came to my senses, Zhou Jun had already turned around and walked forward.

I don't know if she misunderstood again.

Meng Shuyu stood there looking at his back, and suddenly a thought crossed his mind: Zhou Jun is the one - the annoying male goblin.

After discussing opinions with his colleagues, Meng Shuyu followed Zhou Jun out of the exhibition hall, entered the elevator, and pressed the "-1" button.

But Zhou Jun and she pressed the number "1" at the same time.

"Our car is parked in the basement." Meng Shuyu reminded him.

"Know."

"Are you planning to go to other exhibition halls to get a feel for the situation? Then why don't I go and scout out the route first? Otherwise, it would be awkward if I bump into the person in charge of the other party..."

Zhou Jun sighed: "Meng Shuyu, you are indeed more dedicated than me."

"?"

"I just got back from vacation and haven't recovered yet, so I'm going out for some fresh air."

It was the first time that Meng Shuyu heard a leader so brazenly suggest slacking off in front of her.

Before she could even reorganize her worldview, she followed Zhou Jun to the rooftop of a nearby coffee shop.

A leader is indeed a leader. He chooses places better than ordinary people to slack off. If he says he needs to get some fresh air, he will be very clear about it. He must go to a place with fresh air.

Meng Shuyu and Zhou Jun went up to the open-air terrace on the third floor and sat down at a table for two.

The sunshine at 3:30 in the afternoon in October was just right, neither too cold nor too hot.

Zhou Jun took off his suit jacket, leaned back in his chair calmly, and looked like he had no psychological burden at all.

"You came out today not just to take a look at the exhibition hall, but actually to slack off, right?" Meng Shuyu looked at him.

"What? I didn't bring you with me to touch it?" Zhou Jun raised his eyebrows.

Meng Shuyu had nothing to say about his self-righteousness. He placed his order with the waiter and went to the bathroom downstairs.

A few minutes later, I went up to the top floor again. As soon as I reached the door to the rooftop, I suddenly saw two young girls standing next to Zhou Jun.

She looked like a college student, and was speaking to him cautiously.

Zhou Jun looked up at each of them, picked up a pen and tissue from the table, wrote something and handed them over.

The two of them took it happily, turned around with smiles, and walked towards Meng Shuyu.

Meng Shuyu dodged to the side and hid behind the door. She saw two people walking past her downstairs, talking excitedly all the way -

"Help, help! My legs went weak when he looked at me!"

"I thought someone with such a gorgeous face would be hard to flirt with, but I didn't expect it would be so easy to get her phone number!"

"Hurry up and add him on WeChat!"

"Wait a minute, I'll prepare my opening remarks!"

Meng Shuyu's face darkened.

She only went out with him occasionally, and when she was away for a few minutes someone else would take advantage of the opportunity to come in.

When you think about it this way, you can imagine how grand it must be for him to be alone outside.

And he was really generous, giving out numbers like handing out flyers.

I guess I posted a lot of them last time at the nightclub.

No wonder when he was at the Japanese restaurant, he said that she had tricked him, but he still gave her and Chen Xing his own number.

He simply accepts everyone who comes!

Meng Shuyu took a deep breath, returned to sit opposite Zhou Jun, glanced at him expressionlessly, suddenly not wanting to see his face, picked up his phone and casually opened Candy Crush.

"Meng Shuyu."

Meng Shuyu was concentrating on playing Candy Crush and didn't say anything.

Zhou Jun snorted a laugh from his nose: "Can you get angry just because you go to the toilet?"

"Leave me alone."

The waiter came over and interrupted their conversation, and served two cups of coffee and the milk ice cream that Meng Shuyu had just ordered.

Zhou Jun glanced at Meng Shuyu and pushed her coffee and ice cream in front of her.

Meng Shuyu was angry and didn't even look at it, but kept clicking his fingers to pass the gate.

A few minutes later, Zhou Jun reminded her, "Your ice cream is going to melt."

"I don't have time to eat." Meng Shuyu replied in a muffled voice. Just as she finished her words, a milky white ice cream suddenly appeared in front of her and was right next to her mouth.

Meng Shuyu paused, raised her eyes, and saw that it was Zhou Jun who fed the ice cream to her mouth.

The game sound effects jingled and clanged, and layer after layer of animal portraits piled up, and soon there was no top, and it was game over.

Meng Shuyu looked at Zhou Jun, lowered his head tentatively, took a bite of the ice cream, and licked his lips.

The phone in my palm suddenly vibrated.

"Meng Shuyu, you are really busy." Zhou Jun took the ice cream back.

Meng Shuyu looked down at his phone and saw a WeChat friend request—

Hello, I'm the girl who asked you for your phone number on the rooftop just now~

"?"

Meng Shuyu raised his head and blinked slowly at Zhou Jun.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Jun blinked.

"Did you give the wrong number?" Meng Shuyu realized that this possibility did not exist after asking. After all, her number and Zhou Juan's number were a million miles apart. "No... why did you give my number to that girl?"

"You can't handle this kind of thing?"

“… How do I handle this?”

Zhou Jun raised his hand casually: "Deal with it however you want."

The author has something to say: Did you fail in your studies today
