In Secretary Chen's eyes, both Tang Feng and Chi Yue are magical creatures and are stumbling blocks that interfere with the president's cause.
Now another green tea boy has popped up, they are really endless.
However, this also indirectly illustrates President Zhuang's charm. Looking at the small figure of the green tea girl just now, she still cannot shake the president's position. The president is the top one!
Secretary Chen, who was a top fan and a fan of the only one, didn't realize that there was anything wrong with his thoughts. At this time, Zhuang Baihua asked him: "What is the 'tea flavor' you just mentioned?"
Secretary Chen found it difficult to explain: "She was just very scheming and pretended to be innocent."
Zhuang Baihua showed an expression that seemed to understand, "It's a lifelong learning process. I think I need to expand my vocabulary."
Zhuang Baihua is not that old-fashioned, it's just that his work revolves around community residents, and he mostly interacts with people's daily lives. He can't keep up with the latest trends, and when he thinks about it, he is indeed out of date.
He did what he said. When he got back to the company, he started surfing the Internet for a long time. The employees in the president's office were very curious: "Boss Zhuang locked himself up for a whole day. What on earth is he doing?"
Chen Wang made some tea and went to knock on the president's door. Then he saw Zhuang Baihua folding his arms, staring at the computer screen with a heavy expression, and a faint blue color appeared under his eyes.
Secretary Chen placed the tea on the table and said carefully, "Mr. Zhuang, take a rest."
Zhuang Baihua kept his posture unchanged and said solemnly: "I have gained a lot of knowledge."
"For example?" Secretary Chen asked.
"For example, what do green tea and white lotus mean?" He raised his head and looked at his secretary blankly. "I can vaguely understand, but I can't quite tell the difference between the two words."
Secretary Chen comforted him: "You will understand when you see it in practice."
"I also know what sand sculpture is, what Aquaman is, and what blackening is."
Secretary Chen: “…” The president is really hardworking.
Zhuang Baihua leaned back in his office chair and said solemnly, "The knowledge and power of the people are truly endless. I really admire them for creating so many vivid and descriptive words."
Secretary Chen didn't know what to say. The current CEO seemed like an old cadre trying hard to keep up with the trend...
He thought for a long time, pushed the teacup forward, and said, "Have a sip of tea first."
Zhuang Baihua picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "Remember to add wolfberry next time."
Secretary Chen: “…”
Based on this health-preserving idea, the president should not follow any trends.
Zhuang Baihua had never figured out the difference between green tea and white lotus, so it didn't matter. He didn't take Xiyin's protest to heart.
In his eyes, Xiyin's behavior was like a child declaring ownership of a toy. As an adult, there was no need for him to argue with a child.
And he doesn't think Chi Yue is a toy.
He quickly put the matter behind him, as Chi Yue's vacation day was getting closer.
Zhuang Baihua asked Secretary Chen to arrange the travel transportation and various issues along the way. Secretary Chen kept muttering to himself, "Chi Yue is the evil concubine who brings disaster to the country and the people," but he still handled things in a very orderly manner.
Zhuang Baihua calculated the date of Chi Yue's last exam, finished his work in advance, and asked the driver to drive to Chi Yue's university to take him out for a delicious meal.
The driver was familiar with the route to the university and arrived at the destination in a short while.
Zhuang Baihua didn't know which room Chi Yue was taking the exam in, so he asked the driver to park the car and walked slowly to the teaching building.
He had graduated from school many years ago, so returning to campus was still somewhat novel.
Surrounded by energetic students, their youthful vigor made his steps lighter.
Because the exam had just ended, there were many students leaving the exam room. Someone bumped into him unexpectedly. Zhuang Baihua quickly supported the person and lowered his head to ask, "Are you okay?"
The person who bumped into him was a girl. She said in panic, "Sorry!" She raised her head and was stunned when she saw Zhuang Baihua's face.
Zhuang Baihua asked her to stand properly and said with a smile, "Be careful next time."
The girl blushed suddenly and said loudly: "Thank you!"
Today's college students are really energetic and speak with full vigor. Zhuang Baihua waved his hand to indicate that it was not necessary and continued walking forward.
The girl joined the classmates next to her, pointed at Zhuang Baihua's back, and covered her mouth with her hands while laughing.
"It's not bad to be more mature. So handsome."
Zhuang Baihua didn't know what the students were talking about behind his back, and walked against the flow of people towards the school building. He stopped by the roadside and called Chi Yue.
Soon, the phone was picked up and Zhuang Baihua said, "I'm at your school."
Before he could get a response from the other end of the phone, he saw Chi Yue's figure.
Chi Yue, holding the phone, also saw Zhuang Baihua. The thin young man immediately smiled, and the whole world became a little brighter. He raised his hand and waved to Zhuang Baihua in a big manner.
The two hung up the phone at the same time. Chi Yue trotted towards Zhuang Baihua. Just as she was about to reach Zhuang Baihua, a man suddenly rushed out from the side.
"Hi, Xiaoyue."
Xiyin blocked Chiyue's way with a smile and asked, "How was the exam?"
The corners of Chi Yue's mouth immediately dropped several arcs.
Zhuang Baihua saw this scene not far away and walked over reluctantly, just in time to see Xiyin taking out a beautifully wrapped gift box from her schoolbag and handing it to Chiyue.
"Happy summer vacation!" Xiyin was a little embarrassed, with a hint of redness on her pale face and a shy smile on her face. She said, "I should have given it to you earlier to wish you good luck in your exams, but I took me a long time to choose a gift."
Chi Yue's first reaction was the same as Zhuang Baihua's: "Why don't you study hard and go pick out gifts?"
Xiyin held up the gift, lowered his head, and whispered, "I'm sorry, I took the time to go there, don't blame me." He kept holding the gift in front of Chiyue, his eyes began to redden, "Let me see, I just want to make you happy."
Even though Zhuang Baihua was familiar with terms like green tea and white lotus, he still couldn't bear to see the poor little girl being rejected, so he also looked at Chi Yue.
Chi Yue also looked at Zhuang Baihua. If Zhuang Baihua saw correctly, there was an indescribable sorrow in Chi Yue's eyes...
Chi Yue accepted the gift, and Xi Yin covered her mouth with her hands happily.
Chi Yue opened the gift in front of him. Inside was a heavy pen. It looked like the material was very expensive. The pen was dotted with patterns of stars and the moon, which looked sparkling and very beautiful.
"I had it specially customized." Xiyin said softly, "I think it matches you."
Chi Yue pursed her lips and said nothing. She took the pen out of the box, let the pen roll around on her fingertips, and turned the pen rapidly.
Because of the material, the pen flashed with bright light and turned between Chi Yue's five fingers. Only silver shadows could be seen visually.
It was as if... Chi Yue was playing with a knife.
Chi Yue stopped moving, holding the pen firmly in his hand. He narrowed his eyes, pulled a sarcastic smile on his lips, and said, "You will regret giving me this."
Chi Yue showed that gloomy expression again, which looked a little scary, but Xi Yin was not scared. Instead, she breathed quickly, a hint of fanaticism flashed in her eyes, and she looked at Chi Yue greedily.
The two people standing beside the road in front of the teaching building were really conspicuous.
Chi Yue lowered her eyes and looked at the pen, and Xiyin looked at Chi Yue.
“Ahem.”
The director's cough broke the barrier, and Zhuang Baihua said to Chi Yue: "Thank him quickly."
Chi Yue was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud.
This person always makes a deafening voice to pull him out when he is indulged in the past and is about to fall into the abyss.
Chi Yue put on a sincere smile and looked at Zhuang Baihua, who was really as pretty as a picture. He said, "He forced it on me, and I accepted it. He should be thanking me."
What kind of crooked logic is this? Zhuang Baihua looked at Chi Yue disapprovingly, then said to Xi Yin in a friendly manner: "This child is rude. I thank you on his behalf."
Zhuang Baihua didn't mean anything else, but to Xiyin, this sentence sounded like a declaration of sovereignty and a show of force.
Chi Yue casually put the pen into his trouser pocket, put the box back into Xiyin's hand, turned around and asked Zhuang Baihua: "Are you here to take me to dinner?"
Zhuang Baihua laughed: "Little foodie."
The call of "little foodie" contained some doting, Chi Yue's smile became more hearty, while Xi Yin's smile became more forced.
"Let's go, let's go." Chi Yue stood beside Zhuang Baihua, gently tugged at the corner of Zhuang Baihua's clothes, and urged him.
"Do you need help getting something?" Zhuang Baihua asked, "Clothes and stuff. Isn't it the holiday?"
Chi Yue said: "I applied for a boarding school during the summer vacation."
Zhuang Baihua could understand Chi Yue's superb father and just said, "Then I'll pick you up from school the day after tomorrow? You should pack some clothes in advance, since you'll be living outside after all."
As he spoke, he became a little excited: "Do you want me to take you shopping for clothes? I see that many children wear strange clothes when they go to theme parks."
Chi Yue was speechless: "I'm not a kid, and that's not a weird outfit." He glanced at Xi Yin intentionally or unintentionally, and said to Zhuang Baihua, "Stop talking, let's go."
Zhuang Baihua muttered softly: "I know that's called cosplay..." Then he was pulled away by Chi Yue by the arm.
Before leaving, he did not forget to say goodbye to Xiyin: "Goodbye!"
Xiyin looked at the backs of the two people, the muscles on his cheeks twitching. He took great effort to control his expression. He raised his hand to touch his chest and bit his lips so hard that he almost made his pale lips bleed.
Zhuang Baihua and Chi Yue agreed on a time, and Zhuang Baihua picked up Chi Yue, and the two of them took the bus together.
This time, Zhuang Baihua was still stubborn and decided not to bring a bodyguard. He always felt awkward traveling with a bodyguard. Besides, he was willing to believe in the law and order of this world once again. In broad daylight, there wouldn't be so many criminals like Tang Feng.
On the day of departure, Zhuang Baihua was inevitably excited, because he had never been to such a large amusement park...
He went downstairs to the garage, ready to drive to pick up Chi Yue, but he unexpectedly received a call from Luo Zhenduo before getting in the car.
"Last time you said you were going to City G, are we leaving today?"
Luo Zhenduo asked right away.
Zhuang Baihua didn't understand how he knew his arrangements, and said, "Yes, I'll be leaving soon."
Luo Zhenduo asked, "Where are you now?"
Zhuang Baihua said honestly: "In the garage, just about to drive."
"Wait a minute, I'll be there soon." Luo Zhenduo's voice sounded a little helpless. "My son also mentioned the amusement park in City G to me. I originally planned to take him out to play, but I didn't expect that he wanted to go to the same place as me, so let's team up."
Zhuang Baihua didn't quite understand: "Partner up?"
"Let's go together. It will be more lively with more people." Luo Zhenduo said on the phone.
"That's not a good idea." Even though they were friends, Zhuang Baihua refused. In his heart, he didn't want anyone to disturb his and Chi Yue's trip.
"Ah." Luo Zhenduo sighed, "Originally, we didn't have to go together, but my son begged me for a long time. He said he wanted to have more fun. I also know that my son has always been very well-behaved. He begged me so I had to compromise."
Zhuang Baihua complained in his heart that this was spoiling, but he still said, "Let's find another opportunity later. Forget it this time."
"But we're already in front of your apartment."
Zhuang Baihua: “…”
He walked out of the garage and saw a silver sedan parked across the street. Luo Zhenduo got out of the car and held the car door. His posture was quite cool, but the expression on his face was a little complicated.
"Don't look down on us, just take us with you." It was rare for Luo Zhenduo to use such a requesting tone.
At this time, another young man got out of the car. He was weak and handsome, and looked at Zhuang Baihua with a pair of watery eyes.
Zhuang Baihua was stunned.
Luo Zhenduo said to the young man beside him, "Call him Uncle Zhuang quickly."
The young man smiled sweetly and shouted, "Hello, Uncle Zhuang, my name is Luo Xiyin."
