Meng Shuyu listened to Zhou Jun's words, and at a certain moment he felt his heart was about to beat again.

But the next moment, this damp heart, after a brief rise, was too wet and heavy, and it only moved for a moment before continuing to lie there lifeless.

Meng Shuyu lowered his head, and when he raised his eyes again, he looked at Zhou Jun again.

How can there be such a smart person

The first step is to put yourself in the other person’s shoes and understand their pain points.

The second step is to provide the other party with needs based on their pain points.

The third step is to increase sincerity and demonstrate room for cooperation.

These are the negotiation methods she learned in the workplace.

Every step was in perfect agreement with Zhou Jun's flawless words.

In the past, when she wanted to believe him, she seemed to be unable to see his flaws at all, or even if she did, she pretended not to see them, and always tried hard to think of things in the direction she expected.

Now that she didn't want to believe him, his perfect words were full of loopholes in her eyes.

It seemed that the more eloquent he was, the more angry she became.

If he remained speechless like he was last night, she really wouldn't know where to vent her anger.

Now that he is in high spirits and can smooth things over, she is also in high spirits.

There is no need to consider your status even when you are heartbroken, or to control your anger. You don't have to politely invite him to sit down and call him Mr. Zhou even if you make yourself sick.

After thinking for a while, she nodded to Zhou Jun and said, "Sendai is lucky to have you. We should be able to close a lot of deals in the future. Look at what you said. Even a compass cannot be rounder than you."

Zhou Jun seemed to be unsure whether to be happy or sigh. He thought for a moment and said, "Then - thank you for your compliment?"

"You're welcome. Since you still have a lot of ink in your belly, go ahead and chase me if you want."

Zhou Jun raised his eyes and tilted his ear slightly, as if to confirm what he heard.

Meng Shuyu imitated him by raising his hand and continued the second half of the sentence: "I'll learn some of your tricks, maybe I can use them on the man I like in the future."

"."

After Zhou Jun and Tang Xuanxuan left, Meng Shuyu had almost digested his lunch. He lay down on the bed again and soon fell asleep again.

I had a dream during this deep sleep.

I dreamed that I was walking in a vast expanse of white snow. It seemed endless as far as I could see. As I was walking, I suddenly saw a dark shadow on the horizon.

She walked forward curiously, and only when she got closer did she see clearly that it was Zhou Jun kneeling in the snow, scooping up handfuls of snow with his hands and filling a bottomless pit in front of him.

She asked him in shock what was this

He said this was the grave he dug for himself.

She asked why they dug so deep. Did a 1.87-meter-tall person need such a big hole

He said that there is a gap between theory and reality.

She said okay, and then asked why it had to be filled up now

He said that he had to kneel down to fill in the grave he had dug.

She didn't understand what was going on, so she moved the table and chairs to the side and set up the hot pot. She leisurely crossed her legs and ate the dishes, watching him slowly fill his stomach while she ate.

After waking up from this absurd and dark dream, Meng Shuyu shuddered and perked himself up.

What I saw was a dim bedroom, and it seemed to be getting late.

But when I turned around and looked at the electronic clock, it was not as late as yesterday. It was not even five o'clock yet.

Under normal circumstances, she would still be busy in the general manager's office at this time.

After sweating all afternoon, the feeling of being dizzy and light-headed was much less, but Meng Shuyu felt sticky all over. He couldn't stand it anymore, so he got up and took a hot bath.

After being showered from head to toe with abundant hot water, Meng Shuyu felt much more comfortable. He changed into home clothes in the bathroom, dried his hair, and prepared to go out to see if there was any ingredient in the refrigerator to make a simple dinner.

When I opened the refrigerator door, it was empty.

Even the dozen beers that were supposed to sustain the occasion were used up last night.

After thinking about it, Meng Shuyu decided to order takeout. Before he picked up the phone, he heard the doorbell ring.

When she walked to the entrance and looked through the door mirror, she saw Zhou Jun, the man who filled the grave in her dream.

Meng Shuyu hesitantly opened half of the door and looked out.

"Come and make dinner for you." Zhou Jun lifted the shopping bag in his hand.

Meng Shuyu looked back at the clock. It was not even half past five: "It's not even time to get off work yet."

"But isn't it time for you to take your medicine?"

Meng Shuyu held the door and looked at him for a while, thought for a while, opened the door to let the person in, then went into the bathroom without saying a word, took the basket of dirty clothes, and walked to the balcony to wash them.

From the open kitchen outside, it sounded like someone was washing rice, chopping vegetables, and mincing meat.

After Meng Shuyu threw the clothes into the washing machine, he sat down on the lazy sofa on the balcony and chatted with Chen Xing on his mobile phone.

Chen Xing: Amazing... The stock market is not as volatile as your relationship. Now you are on the balcony and he is in the kitchen. Isn’t it awkward if you don’t talk

Meng Shuyu: I don’t know whether he is embarrassed or not, but I am not embarrassed at all. He likes to be a free laborer, so I just treat him as a male nanny at home.

Chen Xing: [Thumbs up] We have grown up as sisters, and we will see each other no matter how hard it is to let yourself be wronged. You should keep this mentality, and he will be the one who feels uncomfortable.

The washing machine stopped running. Meng Shuyu put down his phone, took out the dried clothes and hung them up, then turned around and put the clothes basket in the bathroom. Feeling a little tired again, he took a tablet and sat on the sofa in the living room, turning on an episode of a talk show.

At the other end of the kitchen, Zhou Jun used a spoon to stir the soft porridge in the casserole, and poured in the minced meat, green vegetables and carrots that he had prepared in advance.

After the meat and vegetables are cooked, turn off the heat, cover the pot, simmer for a few minutes, then serve in a bowl and walk out.

I looked up at the sofa and saw Meng Shuyu leaning there, staring at the tablet with his head tilted and laughing as if no one was around.

Zhou Jun stood there and looked at her for a while, and she seemed completely unaware of his gaze.

"Come and have dinner." Zhou Jun called her.

Meng Shuyu stopped smiling, looked up, said "Oh", and walked towards the dining table with the tablet, lowering his head and smiling at the talk show host as he walked.

After washing his hands at the sink, Meng Shuyu placed the tablet on the dining table and started drinking porridge while listening to a talk show.

Zhou Jun sat aside and looked at her. He opened his mouth to say something, but suddenly he saw her laughing again and tapped her forehead with the knuckle of her index finger.

After the porridge was finished and the talk show came to an end, Meng Shuyu looked at him questioningly: "Why are you still here?"

Zhou Jun sighed softly: "I'm free."

"If it's salty, just pour a glass of water and drink it. Then you can leave." Meng Shuyu took the used bowls and spoons to the kitchen to wash.

Zhou Jun made vegetable and lean meat porridge, which was not oily and could be easily cleaned with a simple rinse.

Meng Shuyu hung the washed dishes on the rack and saw Zhou Jun's cell phone on the kitchen counter. He was about to ask him to take it away, but when he turned around, Zhou Jun just walked over.

Seeing Zhou Jun pick up the phone, Meng Shuyu suddenly remembered that he was going to take another day off tomorrow, and turned around to tell him about it. As he turned around, he accidentally saw a recipe recommendation pop up on the screen of his unlocked phone - what kind of porridge should babies drink when they have a fever.

"… "

Zhou Jun turned his head and met her eyes.

When their eyes met, the air seemed to become thinner.

Meng Shuyu blinked and was about to turn back as if he hadn't seen it, when he suddenly saw Zhou Jun also blinking. He asked expressionlessly and matter-of-factly, "Why, it's not the baby?"

Meng Shuyu swallowed softly and said, "So - you don't want me to learn your tricks, so you use such a tacky trick?"

"."

Meng Shuyu was really tortured this time. His fever subsided the next day, but he was still a little depressed, so he rested at home for another day.

Resting seemed to be addictive. After just two days, she couldn't help but imagine her future retirement life.

Unfortunately, she was still a little far from the ideal age. In the evening, Tang Xuanxuan sent her the minutes of this afternoon's meeting as she had requested, which brought her back to reality.

Meng Shuyu received the document on his laptop and looked at it listlessly.

While she was taking notes, her phone vibrated with a text message, telling her that there was a package left at the door and asked her to pick it up quickly.

Meng Shuyu did buy some daily necessities online a few days ago, but it was a bit strange that the express delivery was delivered to the doorman instead of the express locker.

She had to make a long journey, frowned, stood up, found a coat to put on, and walked to the entrance when she suddenly remembered something and stopped.

After hesitating for a while at the entrance, she picked up her phone, took a screenshot of the text message and sent it to Zhou Jun.

Half an hour later, the doorbell rang.

Meng Shuyu guessed that it was Zhou Jun who came to deliver a package. He opened the door and the question "What package is it?" was already on his lips. But when he saw the bouquet of flowers in Zhou Jun's arms, his expression froze.

No way! No way!

Is this how you pursue people

To be honest, she hurt the baby yesterday because she was stubborn.

But today she really couldn't stand this flower.

She really didn't expect that Zhou Jun only had these two brushes.

"You..." Meng Shuyu covered his forehead, "If you are stingy and don't want me to learn, then you should not come. Isn't this a bit too much?"

"Now that you mention it, I think so too," Zhou Jun nodded suddenly, "So should I throw this flower away?"

"Then you can take it home and keep it. I don't mean to let you waste it..."

Zhou Jun shook his head: "It doesn't matter, it's not my money that's wasted anyway."

"?"

Meng Shuyu smiled blankly: "Just buy flowers, why are you spending other people's money?"

"I didn't say I bought it. Didn't you ask me to get it from the security guard?"

Meng Shuyu choked: "The delivery I received was flowers? Who sent it?"

Zhou Jun took out the card from the flowers and turned over the side with words to show her.

Meng Shuyu saw the three letters "lwh" in the signature at a glance.

After trying for a while in my mind, I spelled out "Lou Wenhong".

"… "

His expression froze for a moment, and Meng Shuyu went from being stunned to calming down, and he let out a long "Oh".

Zhou Jun stared at her changing expression and said, "If you don't like it, then I'll throw it away?"

Meng Shuyu spread out his hands and smiled: "No, no, no, just give it to me."

Zhou Jun glanced at the white wall next to him for a while, then handed the flowers over.

Meng Shuyu took the flower into his arms and looked at it, then bent down to smell it: "After taking a closer look, I suddenly feel that this flower seems to be quite beautiful."

The author has something to say: Jun: I feel like she is targeting me.

Ladies: Be more confident and get rid of your feelings!
