Dressed As a Cannon Fodder Substitute For a Beautiful President - Chapter 138
When Shen Zhibing woke up, the first thing he felt was a warm touch. Someone was covering her eyes with a hot towel, and the scent on her wrists made you know who it was without looking.
“Wake up so early?”
Seeing that the corners of her mouth were raised, Qi Zheng knew that she was in a good mood today, so she lowered her head and kissed her lips: “Well, the jet lag hasn’t completely reversed.”
Shen Zhibing raised her hand and hooked her wrist, and stopped talking, making this quiet morning extraordinarily warm.
Last night, she fell asleep crying in Qi Zheng’s arms, and she had already expected that her eyes would look like peaches in the morning. Unexpectedly, someone was one step ahead of her and had already acted.
“Okay, it’s time for you to pack up and go to the company.” Shen Zhibing pursed her lips and patted her hand, signaling her to stop.
The towel became a little cold, Qi Zheng gently opened it, folded it in half and held it in his hand, still moving slowly.
“I’ve already called Yunshan, and I won’t be going back to the company for the past two days.”
Shen Zhibing sat up, straightened the neckline of her pajamas, and was surprised: “You have been away on business for so long, the company must have a lot of things waiting for you to deal with.”
In fact, she also knew that Qi Zheng must stay at home to accompany her. Although I hope to get along with Qi Zheng more, work shouldn’t be delayed.
“I came back a few days earlier than the original plan, and Yunshan handled the company’s affairs very well, so I was selfish and wanted to rest for two more days.” Qi Zheng made a bitter expression, “After staying in the United States so much It’s been really hard work.”
Shen Zhibing pinched her face, her hands were reluctant to use real force, but the touch in her hand was so good that she couldn’t bear to let go: “I studied and started a business in the United States before, why didn’t I hear you say that I felt hard.”
Qi Zheng smiled and pulled her hand down, held it in her hand, and moved forward: “Because I didn’t have a home at that time.”
Shen Zhibing’s heartbeat accelerated, and it was the second time that she was touched by Qi Zheng’s home.
This not only refers to the house of Yunlu Garden, but also refers to the life they run together.
“So no matter what’s going on outside, everything will be fine when you get home.”
She seemed to mean something, and it seemed like she wanted to show something. After Shen Zhibing was slightly startled, Wu Yan was moved and just wanted to hug her.
When Aunt Xin saw that they hadn’t come out, she thought they were still awake, worried that they were hungry, and wanted them to sleep longer.
While hesitating, Qi Zheng came out of the room.
“Aunt Xin, please prepare breakfast and I’ll take it to the room.”
“Miss San hasn’t woken up yet?” Aunt Xin was still worried, but her face was much calmer than yesterday.
Qi Zheng smiled and reassured her: “When you wake up, even if you stay in bed, I will take it in and give it to her.”
“What do you want to eat for lunch? I’ll have someone prepare it.”
“It’s fine, just as usual.”
Shen Zhibing seldom eats in bed, she felt that this was not in line with etiquette. But after crying recklessly last night, the string that had been tensing in her heart suddenly loosened. Qi Zheng suggested having breakfast in bed just now, but she agreed with a slight hesitation.
Qi Zheng placed the dinner plate for her, sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed, and shared one with her.
“I put a little more sugar in the soy milk, you can drink it first.”
“You really are a typical Chinese stomach.”
After breakfast, Qi Zheng called Li Yunshan and several other relevant persons in charge to learn about the latest work situation and new problems. The procedure was similar to that in the United States.
After that, she called Zhuang Muqing again and asked her to help with the apartment.
“I’m in a hurry, so I have to trouble you.”
Zhuang Muqing also heard about Shen Zhibing. Although Qi Zheng didn’t say much, she still couldn’t help but care: “Sister, is she okay? If you need my help, feel free to speak.”
Qi Zheng looked back at Shen Zhibing, and was surprised to find that she had been looking at her. Seeing her suddenly turn around before she staggered her eyes, it was even more obvious.
“We can handle it, don’t worry.”
After hanging up the phone, Qi Zheng pursed her lips and thought for a while, and walked to Shen Zhibing’s side.
As soon as she sat down, the sofa sank, and even Shen Zhibing swayed a few times, and the two were side by side: “Do you mind if I call Moon?”
Shen Zhibing’s tone was flat and didn’t respond much: “No.”
Qi Zheng smiled softly: “Ah Moon is a friend, always just a friend.”
Shen Zhibing heard the words and looked up at her, not knowing what she was going to say.
“But you are different. You are the boss, the boss, the leader of the family, and my partner in life in the future.” Qi Zheng held her hand and put it in his heart, “You are in the deepest place here.”
Shen Zhibing was stunned for a moment, and became embarrassed: “I don’t really mind, but sometimes I can’t help but feel unhappy when I see you approaching others.”
She seemed to be dissatisfied with her own reaction, but she couldn’t control it, so she could only be annoyed.
“I’ll pay attention later.”
“What does it have to do with you? It’s actually my problem. I shouldn’t restrain you too much.”
Qi Zheng shook his head: “Even if I am a kite, only you can hold the string. I am willing to be bound by you.”
Shen Zhibing’s restless heart not long ago was completely calmed down.
After a discussion between the two in the afternoon, they decided to play chess at home.
Shen Zhibing’s luck was good, he threw several sixes one after another, and the plane took off smoothly, while Qi Zheng only had one out of the warehouse.
“Why don’t you give me a few shots?”
Shen Zhibing counted the squares carefully, put the pieces down, and refused without thinking: “How can I do it? I voted for you, can it still be considered your plane?”
“What’s mine is yours, we don’t have to distinguish it so clearly.”
Shen Zhibing is still not fooled, she is also very serious about the game of flying chess.
“Mine is yours too, so why did you let me finish first?”
It seems to be very reasonable, Qi Zheng is “behind” at ease, and he is not too anxious if he can’t lose six.
Shen Zhibing’s two planes returned to the starting point smoothly, she turned the chess pieces upside down, and her eyes finally brightened.
Seeing her really relax, Qi Zheng was naturally happy.
Suddenly Shen Zhibing took the initiative to mention this incident: “Actually, when the news first came out, I was really a little confused and couldn’t find the direction at all.”
Qi Zheng put down the chess pieces and listened to her quietly.
“Later, I felt scared and felt that my secret that I had kept for a long time was revealed to the public. There was a kind of inexplicable shame, shame and embarrassment. I rarely experienced such a situation. No matter how difficult it is, you won’t let yourself lose your demeanor.”
She rarely mentions family affairs, but Qi Zheng is not an outsider, so Shen Zhibing no longer deliberately hides it: “In the end, I feel tired. It’s like I have a serious illness, I have no strength in my whole body, I don’t want to save it, and I also feel tired. I don’t want to face it, and I don’t want to live the way it was before.”
This was just the last straw that broke her down. The root cause was the harsh standards and deep expectations of the big family over the years. The layers of pressure finally fell on Shen Zhibing. Others only saw the glory and light on her body, but no one cared about the pressure and loneliness she was under.
“You can give me half of it.”
Shen Zhibing smiled at her, feeling sweet, but still shook her head and sighed: “The Shen family’s affairs are very troublesome, and I don’t want to involve you. I have to go back to the mansion tomorrow. After a few days, they shouldn’t be able to wait.”
“Aren’t you going to take me to see the parents?”
Shen Zhibing bit her lip and explained seriously: “Of course I want to see you, but I’m going back tomorrow, not for…”
Halfway through, she saw the smile in Qi Zheng’s eyes: “Qi Zheng!”
“Whether it’s a formal meeting with your parents or not, I won’t let you go back to face it alone. You have your own family now, don’t always think about solving things yourself.”
Of course it’s good to have someone with you, but Shen Zhibing didn’t want to let go, so he could only sigh: “I’m afraid that with my current state, I won’t be able to protect you tomorrow.”
“Then let me protect you.”
That afternoon, Shen Zhibing chatted with her about the details of her treatment over the years, and for the first time, she told Qi Zheng about her previous illness without reservation.
Even with such a close lover, Shen Zhibing made mental preparations repeatedly before he had the courage to fully show his imperfect side.
“I should accompany you to face it earlier, instead of leaving you alone in Haicheng.”
Shen Zhibing gently stroked Qi Zheng’s drooping head: “If I can’t stand up on my own and become a truly independent and complete self, what ability and qualification do I have to love you?”
Qi Zheng looked at the strong and fragile beauty in front of her, and a thousand words couldn’t match a kiss.
A deep kiss melted away the regret of not being able to be with each other for all these years.
“I’ve already told you the worst, and I’m not burdened anymore.”
Qi Zheng still hugged her: “Your imperfection is also a kind of perfection in my eyes.”
There is no logic to such words, but Shen Zhibing loves to hear them, especially Qi Zheng.
After speaking, there is no barrier between the two. After playing chess, Qi Zheng asked her, “How are you going to solve this matter?”
“There must be a formal response, but I have no idea how to use it.”
“Do you want to quit?”
“Go back to the mansion tomorrow, let’s see what grandpa means first. I haven’t contacted anyone these days, and the company’s affairs are temporarily represented by the second uncle. If grandpa doesn’t want me to continue to be in charge of the Shen family, then I…”
“That can’t be done.” Qi Zheng came to a conclusion faster than her, “You have paid so much for Shen shi over the years, and Shen shi has achieved today’s achievements entirely thanks to you. Your second uncle will only sing the opposite and put Shen shi’s back. Take it astray. It would be really unwise to hand over the company to him.”
Shen Zhibing didn’t know it, but he was helpless: “Even if Grandpa agrees, he has to convince those shareholders. Who would be willing to hand over the company to a patient to manage.”
There was helplessness and loneliness in her eyes. Qi Zheng held her hand and emphasized: “You did get sick before, but you took active treatment and are now better. There is no difference between emotional illness and physical illness. Don’t deny yourself because of this.”
With the development of the company’s business, Qi Zheng has come into contact with many similar cases. The severity of the illness was different, but the outcomes were surprisingly similar. In the end, many people are actually defeated by public opinion and their own thinking.
“I understand that I’m not giving up on myself. I just don’t have much confidence in convincing people that I’m totally fine.”
**
Shen Shiqi has not been able to speak to the company for a long time. He has been overridden by Shen Zhibing for the past few years, and he is full of resentment and has nowhere to go.
Shen Qixing was sitting in his father’s office, also planning his future.
“Dad, do you think I can start preparing to renovate the office in advance? I really have enough for the small room. When I move to the floor of the president’s office, I must change to a large table.”
“The old man hasn’t finally spoken yet. You should keep a low profile first, and don’t let people see jokes at that time.”
Although Shen Shiqi was admonishing him, he didn’t really stop him. Shen Qixing was overjoyed, knowing that he was only waiting for Grandpa to officially announce it.
“Xiaobing is also true. If you are sick, you should retire early. It is really greedy to occupy the position for so long.”
“What do people in the company say recently?”
Shen Qixing has been in the human resources department for many years, and naturally has his own eyeliner. As soon as the matter came out, he immediately arranged for people to act.
“The middle-level side is relatively calm, and there are not many clear statements. The grass-roots employees can say anything, but it doesn’t make a big difference.”
Shen Shiqi was thoughtful, and patted the armrest of the leather seat a few times: “The people on the board of directors didn’t make a statement, this matter is more troublesome if it drags on for a long time. You can ask your friends from the media to help you push it forward, and take advantage of the turmoil. Back, let’s help Xiaobing again.”
“Don’t worry, Dad. When she returns to the mansion tomorrow, I will give her a big gift.”
