Waiting For A Sunny Day - Chapter 28
Shen Jun originally gave himself half a month of marriage leave, but the honeymoon was suddenly cancelled, and the financial problems of the Dongcheng Group were urgent. So, on the third day of the wedding, Shen Jun packed his luggage and hurried back to China. .
When the group of people saw him at the company, the expressions on their faces were very complicated.
“Mr. Shen early…” The company staff greeted him pretendingly.
“Morning.” Shen Jun just nodded calmly, and walked to the elevator.
Because of Shen Jun’s indifferent temper that is always difficult to provoke, his subordinates can only hold their doubts in their stomachs. He doesn’t even dare to say such kind of words as “I wish you a happy wedding”. Looking at his indifferent face, it is obvious that the newlyweds are not very happy, and there is no spring breeze like the bridegroom official. He is full of cold breeze…
As for this kind of flattery such as “Shen is really dedicated”, “I just got married and didn’t forget to work too admirable”, “I set an example for everyone” and so on, I even dare not shoot, just kidding, just in case you get sucked. On the lap, the consequences are very serious.
At nine o’clock in the morning, when his assistant secretary Zhou Xiaoting announced an emergency meeting, a group of people were afraid to provoke him. They quickly gathered in the meeting room within a minute. The atmosphere in the whole meeting room was very serious and everyone tried to be as calm as possible. Deliberately ignoring the young handsome man sitting in the chief, the groom officer who has just been married for less than three days. By the way, Ignore him as a natural air conditioner, which frequently emits air-conditioning to the surroundings.
Shen Jun’s attitude at work is very serious, always speaking straight to the subject, highlighting the key points, and simple and neat. The meeting time held by him is very short each time, this time it is even shorter, and the problem is solved within ten minutes.
Ten minutes later, a group of people walked out of the conference room with a serious face, and couldn’t help but admire the young and talented boss.
He deserves to be called a young talent. After so many magazine interviews, Shen Jun is indeed very business savvy. This time he invested a large sum of money into the Shareholder City Group. He has drawn up the entire plan in advance. The plan can be described as It is seamless, and it is impossible for people to refute, only to raise their hands to agree.
This is obviously a win-win decision. As a result, he helped his father-in-law tide over the difficulties and made a favor. Secondly, with the Dongcheng Group as an ally, Shen’s local advertising and publicity will not have to worry at all. In the future, Shen’s project Dongcheng Group will definitely be given priority, saving a lot of trouble. The terms listed in the agreement seem reasonable on the surface, but actually they have maximized their interests.
Rather than saying that he was helping the Xiao family, it was better to say that he took the opportunity to pave a way for himself.
Obviously, Shen Jun married Xiao Qing. It was a purely purposeful business marriage…
Although everyone knew the inside story, they didn’t dare to disclose it at all. Under Shen Jun’s cold eyes, these words would be held in their hearts, and they were internally hurt.
After everyone dispersed, Shen Jun turned and walked to his office.
The layout of his office is very simple and fits his personality. White writing desk, silver-gray notebook computer, metal document shelf, transparent coffee table and unique high chair next to it, hourglass on the bookshelf, the design of the whole office looks novel and trendy, but the lines are rather rigid .
Shen Jun stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking blankly at the bustling street downstairs. In fact, he knew very well in his heart that the reason for marrying Xiao Qing was not because of the so-called helplessness of being forced by his grandfather, or even worrying about those boring scandals. With his character, no one can force things that he really doesn’t want… Marrying Xiao Qing is indeed purposeful. Commercial marriage is one of them; after marrying her, she doesn’t have to deal with frequent blind dates at home, which is the second. As for the third…is there a third reason?
Shen Jun was startled, and became a little upset inexplicably. Since leaving New York and returning to the company, his mood has been unable to truly calm down. In the past, as soon as he entered the door of this familiar office building, he was always able to get rid of distracting thoughts for the first time, without distraction, calmly and wisely plunged into the business world, but today, he actually wandered frequently…
“Cough… Mr. Shen.” A voice suddenly heard behind him interrupted Shen Junze’s thoughts.
No one behind him noticed it, and it was the first time for him. Although he knew that the only person who could enter his office at this time was Zhou Xiaoting, the general assistant, but realizing his gaffe, Shen Junze’s face was still not pretty. He turned his head and said lightly: “What’s the matter?”
Zhou Xiaoting is a person who knows how to look and see. Seeing that he is in a bad mood, she hurriedly smiled and said, “Your phone is in the conference room. Someone called just now, and I heard the ringtone.” come.
Shen Jun took the phone and suddenly felt a little strange expectation…
Did she call it?
At this time, it happened to be night in New York, and she must have not slept yet. Did the catastrophe get into trouble again, maybe something was missing, he went to the supermarket and got lost, there was no water at home to drink, and the power went off?
Shen Jun glanced at the caller ID nervously, not Xiao Qing, but her father…
Suddenly I felt lost.
He frowned and answered the phone, “Hey, Dad, are you looking for me? Is there something wrong with the contract?”
“Hehe, Jun Ze, we don’t talk about business. Do you have time tonight? Come to my house. Xiao Qing’s uncle and aunt want to meet you.”
“…”
Shen Jun’s head is a bit big. To be honest, Xiao Qing’s father is very unaccustomed to his familiar tone. The look in his eyes like his son on the wedding day makes his back hairy. Seniors like Xiao Zhengde who have been in shopping malls for many years must know the real reason for marrying his daughter in his heart. Why do you still think of yourself as a son-in-law?
“What’s wrong, is there a meal?” Xiao Zhengde asked with a smile.
“Um… I made an appointment with some friends for dinner tonight.”
“Oh, it’s okay, let’s talk about that weekend?”
Shen Jun frowned. He really didn’t want to go to Xiao’s house to meet his parents. The atmosphere of “family happiness” made him very uncomfortable. It was obvious that this was just a transactional marriage. The parents of both parents were so happy, as if wishing him. Making a couple with Xiao Qingneng… Such an attitude made his mood very complicated.
Anyway, it doesn’t seem good to refuse the elders directly. Shen Jun thought for a while, and then whispered: “Then Saturday night, I’ll call you again.”
“Okay, see you that weekend.”
After hanging up the phone, Shen Jun couldn’t help but exhale. Suddenly there was a father-in-law and a mother-in-law, which was enough for him.
By the way, Xiao Qing’s dad is eager to invite him to dinner to get in touch with each other, but Xiao Qing, a dead girl, doesn’t even give a call? Even out of politeness, she should send a text message to greet her, right?
Shen Jun felt a little angry. What’s more depressing is that he doesn’t know why he is angry.
The weekend came soon, and Shen Jun drove to Xiao’s house with the gifts he prepared in advance. Xiao Qing’s father’s favorite California red wine, and her mother’s favorite cosmetics, plus her uncle and aunt’s favorite brands are not the same, it took him a lot of time to check information and prepare gifts.
It’s not that she wants to please her family and see her elders bring gifts, just out of the most basic etiquette. Since you want to send it, you can’t send the wrong thing to make people laugh.
It’s not easy to be a fake son-in-law.
Shen Jun quickly arrived at Xiao’s house. Her family lived in the urban area. It may be that Xiao Zhengde and Yue Ling both value their careers and live only two blocks away from her company.
Shen Jun rang the doorbell, and soon someone came to open the door. Xiao Qing’s mother had her hair pulled behind her head, and she had an elegant temperament. Shen Jun was silent for a while before yelling in embarrassment, “Mom.” There is such a young mother-in-law. , He was under a lot of pressure…
“Jun Ze, you are very punctual.” Yue Ling said lightly, “Come in.”
Shen Jun entered the room, and the other four people in the room stared at him with all eyes. In addition to Xiao Qing’s parents and uncle and aunt, Xiao Fan was also present. The feeling of being watched is really uncomfortable. Shen Jun bit his head and stepped forward to say hello: “Dad, uncle, aunt.”
“Jun Ze, ha ha, I have heard of you, but it is the first time I have seen a real person. The young man is much more handsome than in the magazine photos.” Uncle Xiao said with a smile.
Shen Jun touched his nose awkwardly, why is this uncle a familiar one again? It seems that Xiao Qing has completely inherited the personality of their Xiao family. Xiao Fan’s alternative indifference is obviously inherited from his mother…
That Aunt Xiao’s personality was cold, and she looked like Xiao Qing’s mother. It is said that Yue Ning and Yue Ling were cousins and married to the brothers of the Xiao family. What a messy genealogy, and now, he too And come in.
A meal is very tangled, Shen Jun has been used to being independent since he was a child. He has never liked this kind of scene where a family sits around a table and chats, not to mention the strange elders sitting around a table with him…
Xiao Fan seemed to see that Shen Junze was uncomfortable. After eating, he said, “Junze, come with me.”
Shen Jun nodded and followed him to the study room upstairs.
After closing the door, he breathed a sigh of relief. The atmosphere of being with a strange elder was suffocating. Although Xiao Fan had a cold personality, it was easier to communicate with people of the same age.
“Call me over to talk alone, what’s the matter?” Shen Jun asked straightforwardly.
Xiao Fan glanced at him indifferently, “Just put it straight, you and Xiao Qing are married for a business marriage. You have been fully prepared before marrying her. Then, according to your plan, when do you want to divorce her? ”
Worthy of being a lawyer, this problem really hit the nail on the head.
Shen Jun fell silent.
The original plan was one year, and he had agreed with Xiao Qing, and it would last for one year. When the time comes, find a suitable reason for divorce and let her be free.
But at this moment, facing Xiao Fan’s extremely cold eyes, for some reason, he suddenly didn’t want to tell this fact.
“Even though Xiao Qing is confused, she is not stupid. In fact, she knows in her heart that you are using her to marry her. As a brother, I don’t want to see her suffer any wrongdoing.”
“Don’t worry about this, I will not wrong her.” Shen Jun said with a cold face, “In addition, I have no interest in your Xiao family’s property. Before marriage, I have asked a lawyer to do property notarization. If we divorce in the future If you do, I will only compensate her and will not take a penny from her.” Shen Jun was silent for a while, and added, “Besides, you are so sure, I and her will definitely go to the divorce. step?”
Xiao Fan thought for a while and frowned, “Don’t you hate each other? Can you cultivate feelings?”
This rhetorical question is really shocking.
Shen Jun’s expression froze, “In short, I won’t let her be wronged. I have no interest in bullying little girls.”
“Oh…” Xiao Fan was silent for a while, “That’s good.”
After the two came out of the study, they both tightened their faces tacitly after negotiating. When passing by the next room, Shen Jun glanced at the light blue curtains and couldn’t help but pause.
Xiao Fan glanced at him, smiled and said, “This is Xiao Qing’s room, this kind of girl’s room, are you interested in going in and take a look?”
Shen Jun raised his eyebrows, “Okay.”
He knew that Xiao Fan was not pleasing to his eyes. Perhaps he was not pleasing to his eyes from the day he first asked him to be a lawyer. Anyway, he didn’t want to ask Xiao’s family to like him as much as Xiao Qing’s father. He felt normal when Xiao Fan hated him.
Xiao Qing’s house is very clean, but the layout is somewhat abstract. The light blue curtains and bed sheets reflect her favorite hip-hop monkey pattern, and the blue sky and white clouds painted directly on the ceiling… Can she sleep in such a strange room? Turn on the light in the middle of the night, still the blue sky and white clouds above your head?
The white writing desk was wiped clean, there was a cute crystal pendant hanging on the lamp, and a photo album was placed next to it. Shen Jun picked it up curiously and looked at it. The first photo shocked him, if it weren’t for Xiao He would definitely laugh out loud when he was beside him.
It was Xiao Qing in her childhood, holding a tabby cat in her arms and wearing two pigtails. Her face was chubby, very cute, and she wanted to pinch it hard.
Flipping back, they are all photos taken when she was a child. When she was a child, Xiao Qing looked very well-behaved. She stood awkwardly in front of the camera. She didn’t know how to move or laugh. She was silly and cute…
When I arrive at elementary school, I gradually become a little distorted, and I will put on various tangled poses and grimaces.
By the middle school, it was even more distorted, and the photo was not serious.
In the back, people became more and more beautiful, and their movements became more and more abstract. One of them was the posture of a sculpture that she learned in front of a sculpture, and she learned very similarly. There are also those who are independent on the bridge, those who pretend to be deep in front of the library but have taken the book down, those who learn the monk poses as Amitabha, those who play football with scuds, and those who open their arms on the boat and play Titanic with Wei Nan Qijuan. The number of… all kinds of weird and funny postures, the material in her mind is too rich.
What if you have been as good as you were when you were young?
Shen Jun resisted the urge to cramp on his face and silently put the album back.
Xiao Fan smiled, “Why, after reading the photos, don’t you have any thoughts?”
Shen Jun turned his head and said meaningfully and authentically: “There are feelings, but it is indescribable.”
