Dressed As a Cannon Fodder Substitute For a Beautiful President - Chapter 119

Qi Zheng didn’t know that the original creation would drive people crazy. Even a sunny and free-spirited person like Zhuang Muqing would almost go crazy in less than ten days before the exhibition.

The workshop is not as neat and orderly as it was at first, and empty coffee cups and beer cans can be seen everywhere. A person working inside is still in a good mood except when facing the work, and at other times, he is basically only half-breathed.

Qi Zheng pushed open the door, holding the fritters he just bought in his hand, and said to the person who had pulled up his long hair because he hadn’t washed his hair for three days, “Moon, eat first, you can’t go on like this.”

“I have no appetite.”

“You don’t have an appetite, but your body needs it.”

Zhuang Muqing closed her eyes, her stomach was really uncomfortable just now, which is a common occurrence for people who continuously and intensely create. No discomfort can stop them from focusing during periods of intense inspiration, for fear that a single second of delay will be lost forever.

Qi Zheng had already handed over the things to her assistant and asked her to share them with everyone. The share she kept was for Zhuang Muqing: “Eat it while it’s hot.”

Zhuang Muqing finally succumbed to the temptation of food, washed her hands and sat down with Qi Zheng on the terrace at the back door, opened the plastic bag and ate directly.

Qi Zheng drank coffee and said with a smile, “Only when you are creating will you have the chance to meet the indifferent Miss Zhuang.”

“I always dedicate my energy to the most important things, and for now, creating is the only thing.”

Zhuang Muqing ate more than half of it and finally felt more comfortable. She especially likes the freshly ground soy milk here, and she is no longer the same as when she first came, and she only drinks coffee every day.

“I heard that your financing has been settled, and this time returning to China is quite smooth.”

Qi Zheng remembered the conversation he had with Shen Zhibing that night, and he still feels touched to this day. Shen shi led the investment, not to give help in the snow, but to **** her.

“Well, it’s going well.”

Zhuang Muqing wiped her hands and drank the soy milk slowly. She looked at Qi Zheng’s profile, which was still a perfect outline, but revealed a very different atmosphere from the past.

“I found out that you have changed since you returned to Haicheng.”

Qi Zheng turned to look at her: “Are you getting old?”

“Softer and more…real.”

Qi Zheng was aroused by her description. She really never thought about how she felt to others in the past, was it unreal?

“I’m not talking about the hypocritical kind, but I feel that you used to work with love. You didn’t get enjoyment or happiness from the work process, but you just wanted to avoid something.”

Qi Zheng did not directly deny that she has devoted herself to entrepreneurship in the past few years, and did not give herself too much time to consider other issues.

“You and Yunshan are both working hard to start a business, and you both go all out. But the biggest difference between you and her is that you have no life other than work.” Zhuang Muqing is a straightforward person, she thinks that she and Qi Zheng are the same. Relationships, familiar enough to communicate these things, will not be subtle.

“Apart from being too busy to date and fall in love, Yunshan is not bad in other aspects. She has a cat, participates in community activities, and often participates in neighbors’ barbecue parties.” She looked at Qi Zheng and said what she had observed over the years. Those who arrive, “What about you? Besides work, what else have you gained?”

Qi Zheng was silent for a while, and then sighed faintly: “Starting a business has consumed most of my energy, I don’t deny that I want to make myself busy and tired, so I don’t need to think about some things. But you have to ask me about my work. Besides, what is left, maybe only a memory.”

Zhuang Muqing tilted her head and guessed, “I’m homesick? Want Haicheng food?”

Qi Zheng pursed her lips and smiled implicitly, and said, “I want to be alone.”

Zhuang Muqing was stunned, obviously not expecting Qi Zheng to say such a thing. She was a little embarrassed in addition to the accident: “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to inquire about your privacy.”

“It’s okay, I’ve been single for the past few years, so it’s not what you think.”

Zhuang Muqing thought it was a foreign love, and wondered how Qi Zheng could hide it so tightly, but her upbringing instinct prompted her to apologize first. After all, it’s up to you whether you want to talk about other people’s feelings or not.

“It’s more difficult to worry about one-sidedly. No wonder you have to work with love.”

Qi Zheng smiled bitterly. When she first arrived in the United States, she was still sad and sad, but fortunately there was academic pressure that urged her not to be distracted. Later, she communicated frankly with Shen Zhibing in the wonton shop, and finished her thoughts, but she did not feel that she was completely relieved.

After Shen Zhibing returned to China, their contact became less and the relationship quickly cooled down. Qi Zheng also thought about how a proud person like President Shen could bear such repeated rejections.

But she still doesn’t regret her decision, it was really not suitable for them to be together again at that time. Many problems have not been resolved, and their abilities and situation have not changed. Continuing on impulse will only add another wound in the future.

But she occasionally wondered if Shen Zhibing no longer contacted or appeared, did it mean that she had given up. If she gave up, would her miss seem ridiculous and redundant?

She couldn’t go to Shen Zhibing for answers, and she didn’t want to indulge herself in this state of being torn apart repeatedly but only talking to herself. Work is her best sustenance. She tries hard to concentrate and immerse herself. If she doesn’t think about it, she won’t have troubles.

She didn’t set a few years for herself, and she knew very well that the relationship could not be forced or given unilaterally and unconditionally. If you really do not forget it, there will eventually be an echo.

“What about you now? Suddenly thought about it, or let it go completely?”

Qi Zheng hung a faint smile, gentle and calm: “It’s more natural.”

When she returned to China this time, she discovered the changes in Shen Zhibing, especially her personality. The urgency of the past with strong oppression and must be firmly in control was replaced by gentle calm.

She gradually discovered what Shen Zhibing had done silently for her over the years, but never told her a word. She didn’t seem to expect Qi Zheng’s return, but just wanted to do it for her.

Zhuang Muqing was amused by Qi Zheng’s philosophical tone: “Without seven or eight love experiences, I cannot draw such a conclusion.”

“Am I so exaggerating?” Qi Zheng smiled and shook his head in denial, “I’m not a person who likes to change. Once I’m sure, I’ll go all out.”

“This is really good, but it’s also more likely to hurt people. After all, not all relationships will have results, and cherishing and enjoying the process is the most beautiful part of love.”

Qi Zheng didn’t argue with her, everyone has different views and expectations on feelings.

“Which is more important between the process and the result, it actually depends on whether the person you meet has the same idea as you.”

Zhuang Muqing stood up, stomped her feet, and was about to go back to work.

“For the exhibition at the end of the month, you don’t need to travel temporarily or socialize. I have prepared the invitation letter in advance.”

“It must be on time.”

Zhuang Muqing sometimes encountered a bottleneck, and when there was really no way to go, she would occasionally harass Shen Zhibing. Her admiration and admiration for this senior did not come from her dazzling achievements, but her real abilities and talents. She has seen Shen Zhibing’s previous works, and it is her talent that amazes her. The most enviable thing is that she can perfectly integrate talent and skills.

Therefore, she subconsciously felt that Shen Zhibing was someone who could communicate and even ask for help. The topic of art could not be continued by just relying on awkward chats. It must be based on corresponding strengths.

After Shen Zhibing’s inspection tour from the mall that day, he wanted to go to the workshop to see Zhuang Muqing. There are still five days left until the exhibition, but the day before yesterday, she was still not satisfied with the final part of the work.

She called Zhuang Muqing on the way, but no one answered. I thought that maybe she was busy now and didn’t have time in her hands, so she added a message to her, saying that she would drop by to see her.

Qi Zheng looked at the sleeping man leaning on his shoulder, but he couldn’t reach the phone not far away after several attempts. In order to concentrate on her creation, Zhuang Muqing turned her phone to vibrate. When Shen Zhibing called her, she had just fallen asleep.

The person who hadn’t slept in earnest for almost two days managed to finish the bottleneck that she thought was difficult to break through in one breath, and there were only some minor revisions left. Now she can finally relax a little bit. Originally, she was sitting side by side with Qi Zheng and chatting about her works.

Qi Zheng persuaded her to go to the lounge, but Zhuang Muqing insisted that she could only take a short nap, and she could sleep peacefully tonight after all the parts were dealt with.

Knowing that she demanded perfection, Qi Zheng stopped persuading her and let her fall asleep.

Her appreciation of works of art is still in its infancy, and Zhuang Muqing’s finale exhibits she can’t see too much. She couldn’t move around at this time, so she had to use her mobile phone to modify the plan.

When the financing funds arrive in the account, the company will officially launch the first phase of large-scale marketing promotion. For Qi Zheng, this is the first shot she fired after returning to China, so she must be cautious.

Zhuang Muqing was sound asleep, but her bun seemed to be in the way. Confused, she raised her hand and untied her hair, and her long, slightly curly hair was scattered, covering half of her face.

Qi Zheng didn’t care, but the long hair that was scattered gradually disturbed her, making her very uncomfortable, itchy and prickly.

Holding the phone in one hand, she turned around a little awkwardly and with difficulty, and carefully pushed back the disturbing long hair with her free hand. She was afraid that she would wake Zhuang Muqing, so her movements were very small and slow.

When Shen Zhibing came in, what he saw was such a scene.

She stopped immediately without making a sound. Not far or near, he watched Qi Zheng use extremely slow and gentle movements to organize Zhuang Muqing’s hair.

She couldn’t see Qi Zheng’s face, nor Zhuang Muqing’s expression, but she was very aware of the grief in her heart.

Shen Zhibing subconsciously wanted to leave, but his feet seemed to be filled with lead and could not move.

But she didn’t have the courage to keep watching, she was afraid that if she stayed any longer, she would see a picture that would break her heart.

She backed away silently and gently closed the door. Out of the corner of her eye was the sculpture placed on the workbench. She could only see the side clearly, and knew that it was a face, but it was like a sharp sword, piercing her chaotic heart.

Shen Zhibing instructed the driver to drive back to the company. Not long after leaving the workshop, he received a call from Hua Chifeng: “Mr. Shen, do you have time today, I want to talk to you about something.”

Shen Zhibing was not in a good mood, so he reluctantly recovered his energy and responded: “If Mr. Hua has business to discuss, you can make an appointment with Yun Fei first.”

“It’s about Qi Zheng. I heard that Mr. Shen is going to lead the investment, and I want to ask you for a reason in person.”

Hearing Qi Zheng’s name at this time, Shen Zhibing’s heart twitched again, and his breathing was almost out of whack. But financing is no joke, and she doesn’t want her personal emotions to affect her business.

“I’m free now, where is Mr. Hua going to meet?”

“It’s just at a coffee shop near Dongming. It’s not enough to go to the company.”

When Shen Zhibing entered the cafe, Hua Chifeng had already arrived.

There were two cups of hot drinks on the table, and when she saw it, it was a latte.

“I remember meeting a few times. This is what you drink most often, so I ordered one for you first. If you are not satisfied, ask the waiter to change it.”

Hua Chifeng didn’t show much flattery and flattery. Shen Zhibing touched the cup, the temperature was just right, it should be the right time.

She is not in the mood to care about these details now, her head is aching, and her heart is still stuffy. She wants to finish it early and go home to rest.

Hua Chifeng didn’t make any detours, and got straight to the point: “Qizheng’s project has great market potential. I understand Shen’s idea of ​​making money. But Dongyin is obviously more suitable to lead the investment. Why does President Shen have to seize this opportunity?”

“Because Qi Zheng is not suitable for gambling, her projects are warm and sentimental, and gambling will only restrain her.”

Hua Chifeng was slightly stunned and puzzled: “Dongming didn’t force her to sign a gambling agreement, so there is no need for President Shen to do so much for things that haven’t happened yet. Besides, according to Shen’s plan, this field is not your focus. It’s more worry-free to follow you.”

After all, Dongming still wants to take back the opportunity to lead the investment.

Shen Zhibing was unmoved and did not let go, but did not want to explain more.

“Everyone wants good things, but Shen shi is just taking precautions and wants to make this precious jade shine brighter in the future. As for Mr. Hua’s suggestion, I can understand, but I am more aware of Shen’s plan.”

Hua Chifeng did not expect that Shen Zhibing would not give in an inch. He originally planned to give up some shares to narrow the gap between the proportion of leading investors and co-investors. Who knows that there is no chance at all.

Shen Zhibing was willing to talk about this in person, but it was because Qi Zheng and Dongming had to cooperate, and seeing that everything that had to be said had already been said, he would not stay any longer.

For a cup of latte, she only took three or two sips.

“Thank you Mr. Hua for the coffee, but Shen’s investment decision will not change for the time being.” She thought for a while, and then added, “If Dongming thinks it’s inappropriate to opt out, Shen’s will also make up the rest. “
