After eating, the two of them left the restaurant side by side. Ou Fu asked, "Zhiling, is Qingheng okay with you?"
"Brother Ou now has a wife and children, so he has to avoid suspicion in everything. Although I am a younger sister, we are not related by blood, so he will inevitably be lukewarm towards me." Zhang Zhiling shrugged and said casually.
Mrs. Ou pondered for a moment and said, "Let's go, I'll accompany you back to the company, and I'll go talk to Qingheng."
"Godmother, no need. Brother Ou and I are in the same company, and I liked him before. It's normal for him to avoid me."
"Then do you still like him now?"
Zhang Zhiling was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "How can you let go of someone you love so easily? But I have decided to go on a blind date. He is the eldest son of the Qin family. He just came back from abroad. My mother said he looks good. He is talented, humorous, and has a foreign degree. He has similar experience to me, so I think he and I will be a good match."
Mrs. Ou glanced sideways at her and said with a smile: "I'm going on a blind date. That's good. I talked to a few acquaintances about you a few days ago. Please ask them if they have any suitable young people. I’ll introduce you to Caijun, and they also told me a few, and even looked at the photos, but I was afraid that you might feel conflicted, so I didn’t expect you to mention it today. You go and have a look, and if you like it, your godmother will go. Check it for you."
Zhang Zhiling's eyes flashed with resentment. She looked at the passing cars and suddenly had an evil thought. She thought that if she pushed the hypocritical old woman next to her into the driveway, she would never be able to exist like this. In this world, if she hadn't given her unrealistic promises, she wouldn't be so obsessed with Ou Qingheng.
"Zhiling, what's wrong? The light is green." Mrs. Ou's voice brought her back to reality.
Zhang Zhiling woke up, looked at Mrs. Ou apologetically, and said, "Godmother, I'm sorry, I was distracted just now."
Ou Fu said: "Let's go first. Don't be distracted when crossing the road later, otherwise you will be hit by a car easily."
"I know, godmother." Zhang Zhiling said in an educated tone.
After entering the Ou Group, Zhang Zhiling said: "Godmother, I'm going back to the office to work, so I don't deserve you to go upstairs."
Mrs. Ou nodded.
Zhang Zhiling took another elevator to go upstairs, while Mrs. Ou took the elevator specially for the Ou family to the top floor.
"Hello, madam." The secretaries in the secretary's office greeted Mrs. Ou one after another.
"Is Qingheng in the office?" Ou Fu asked.
"Back to Madam, Mr. Ou has asked people to go to the meeting. It may only be over in half an hour. How about Madam, please go in and sit down first." Linlin invited the people to the office, and then made coffee for them and served them. Very thoughtful.
"Is your name Linlin?" Mrs. Ou stopped Linlin and asked.
"Yes, madam, do you have any other instructions?"
"Has Qingheng eaten?"
"Not yet." Linlin said, "But we have asked Mickey's Restaurant to deliver the takeout. It will be here in about five minutes."
Mrs. Ou nodded and said, "You can warm them up when we arrive soon. Don't let Qingheng eat cold things, you know?"
"Don't worry, madam." Linlin said, "Madam, I'm going to work first."
Mrs. Ou nodded.
She waited in the office for nearly half an hour before Ou Qingheng came back. Linlin came in with a beautiful box and put it on the desk.
"Mr. Ou, I've heated the food for you. You can eat it while it's hot. I'll go out first." After Linlin finished speaking, she left wisely.
Ou Qingheng tugged on his tie, a trace of fatigue flashed between his brows, and said in a hoarse voice: "Mom, why are you here?"
Mrs. Ou pointed to the box on the counter and said, "You go ahead and eat. After that, Mom will talk to you."
Ou Qingheng didn't shirk, he was really hungry.
He devoured his meal, took a wet tissue and wiped his mouth, saying, "Mom, what do you want from me?"
"The day after tomorrow is the 30th wedding anniversary of the Zhang family. They are in-laws of the Ou family after all. You and Yiyi have to prepare a generous gift to attend. You can't be rude." Mrs. Ou looked at Ou Qingheng and said .
Ou Qingheng said: "Mom, we can talk about this on the phone."
"Zhiling and I were eating nearby. I haven't seen you for a long time, so I came over to see you. If you are free on the weekend, the three of you can go back to the main house of the Ou family to live. Your sister is married and can't go back to her parents' house often. I and I Your dad is quite boring too." Mrs. Ou tactfully stated the purpose of her visit.
"Mom, don't be busy anymore. I will take Yiyi and An An back."
Mrs. Ou was silent for a while and said: "You and Yiyi have also remarried. I am not the kind of unreasonable mother-in-law. My previous anger towards her has been smoothed over by An An. You ask her to come back and chat with me when she is free. Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law Don’t act like an enemy either.”
Ou Qingheng smiled and said: "Mom, if Yiyi hears what you said, she will definitely be very happy. She has always been guilty of taking An An away. Although she has your forgiveness, she has never dared to get close to you, so I was afraid that you were resenting her in your heart, but now it's better. The fact that you can say this means that you have let it go, and she won't still be thinking about her guilt for you in her dreams."
"As soon as I talked about her, you had a smile on your face. Why, are you afraid that I will eat her up like a tigress and then put women next to you?"
Ou Qingheng smiled and did not refute.
"Qingheng, your mother is not old enough to be indiscriminate. I have allowed you to remarry, so I won't find a woman for you to cause trouble for An An. An An is my baby, no one will be wronged by me. I don’t dare to make him feel wronged anymore,” Mrs. Ou said.
Ou Qingheng glanced at Mrs. Ou, and it seemed that he still didn't understand his mother well enough.
His mother was pampered and would not tolerate disobedience, but many times she was still willing to compromise for the sake of her children and grandchildren to accept her already dissatisfied daughter-in-law.
Mrs. Ou stood up and said, "I'm leaving first. Just don't forget the Zhang family's 30th wedding anniversary banquet."
Ou Qingheng stood up and sent the person to the door. Mrs. Ou turned around and said: "Qingheng, take care of Zhiling, don't be sarcastic to others, don't forget that your sister is married to Shujun, no matter what Zhiling says, Her sister-in-law, I'm afraid she will take her anger out on Tingting."
Ou Qingheng pursed his lips and said nothing.
"It's what mom asked you to do," Mrs. Ou said in a rare low voice.
Ou Qingheng could only nodded.
Mrs. Ou then left with satisfaction.
Ou Qingheng returned to work.
Just after five o'clock in the afternoon, Yao Yiyi came to the Ou Group in high heels and took the exclusive elevator to the top floor. As soon as she got out of the elevator, another secretary came up to her and said, "Young Madam."
"Is Qingheng here?"
"Back to Madam, Mr. Ou is still in a meeting. Why don't you go into the office and wait while I make you a cup of coffee." The secretary said politely.
Yao Yiyi shook her head and said: "No need, I'll wait outside the conference room. It just so happens that I haven't seen him in the meeting, so I can take a look."
"Young Madam, do you need me to take you there?"
"Need not."
Yao Yi followed the familiar route to the conference room and looked in through the glass of the conference room door. She happened to see Zhang Zhiling explaining the contents of the PPT very ably, while Ou Qingheng was sitting in the front seat. Listen to her carefully.
Yao Yiyi couldn't help but feel a little sense of crisis in her heart. She knew that her uneasiness was a bit ridiculous, but Zhang Zhiling and Ou Qingheng could be regarded as a man and a woman standing together, and there was almost no sense of incompatibility.
She believed that Ou Qingheng's feelings for her were true, but her husband kept a woman who was determined to win him. If she could turn a blind eye, either she didn't love Ou Qingheng at all, or she was interested in him. I am too confident.
It's a pity that she doesn't have either of these for the time being.
She was somewhat wary of Zhang Zhiling, but she could not let Ou Qingheng resign Zhang Zhiling just because of her willfulness.
Yao Yiyi didn't know how long she had been watching outside. After Zhang Zhiling explained the contents of the PPT, she confidently walked to Ou Qingheng holding the document. She smiled and didn't know what she was talking about. Ou Qingheng nodded.
Yao Yiyi pursed her lips, turned around and left.
In the conference room, Ou Qingheng played with the gold pen in his hand and said, "Do you have anything to add? If not, just follow Director Zhang's plan and adjourn the meeting."
Everyone packed up their things and left the conference room. In an instant, only Ou Qingheng and Zhang Zhiling were left in the room.
"Brother Ou, if you think there is any problem with my plan, you can raise it and I will go back and change it. I want to make it perfect." Zhang Zhiling looked at Ou Qingheng and said.
"It's already very good. No changes are needed for the time being. Your work ability has improved a lot, and you are worthy of the position of director." Ou Qingheng gave a rare compliment.
A bright light flashed in Zhang Zhiling's eyes, and the smile on her face was a bit genuine.
"Brother Ou, this is the first time you have praised me."
"As the boss of the company, I distinguish between public and private matters. If you do well, I should reward you. Let's go." Ou Qingheng took the lead to leave the conference room, and Zhang Zhiling followed closely, looking at his back as he walked away. .
