Rongrong asked on the side: "What about me? Where should I go? Am I on vacation?" Zijia said: "You review your homework by yourself, and I will return later." She lay on the sofa and stretched, "It's just to catch up on sleep." Zijia rushed to the company, Zhang Tianhe was waiting for her. His face was ashen, and he seemed to have suppressed anger. When Zijia saw it, she was not very angry, and said coldly: "What's the big deal, you called me here from all the way, just to show me the eyes and nose?" "Where did you go yesterday?"

"Ask knowingly." "You went to Ouya to meet that man named Shi Hongzhan, didn't you feel complacent when you got a deal of sesame mung bean in a humiliating way?" Zijia also raised her voice, "What exactly do you want to say?" "He's your old flame, isn't he?" Zijia sneered, "This seems to be outside the scope of official business." "Miss Zeng, my female staff can't do anything. I can't let outsiders laugh at me as a beauty trick." "Boss Zhang, I'm not a beauty, you can get rid of your suspicions, Shi is just mine; a Japanese colleague, take advantage of a similar relationship to earn a business, why not do it."

"That's not the information I got." "Boss Zhang, your intelligence personnel have greatly failed in their duties," Zijia sneered. "I disdain this kind of business!" "Then return the contract." "People talk more." "How about it," Zeng Zijia stared at him, "Not on the left, not on the right, just lose Jinxing Company, and everyone go on vacation." Looking at Zijia, Zhang Tianhe suddenly calmed down, "I just want to say that although business is important, the sacrifice is too great, but it is not worth it."

Zijia also lowered her voice: "I didn't sacrifice anything, my eyes and nose are here." "However, my self-esteem is peeling off little by little, and nothing remains." Zijia suddenly smiled, "Self-esteem, what is that? After graduating from university, starting from the first day of work, I no longer have self-esteem, only life is left." "Zijia, don't speak too harshly." "Boss Zhang, you have self-respect. I resigned a long time ago, and I will call you here early in the morning to learn a lesson?" When Zhang Tianhe thought about it, he felt very embarrassed.

Zijia replied: "I don't care about receiving people's money and eliminating disasters for others. However, I also have my bottom line. I will not sell myself for the company." "Okay, okay, have you finished complaining?" Zijia was angry and funny, "Boss Zhang, you have a good background, you don't understand what it means to struggle for survival, and you often scream in horror: How can you do this kind of thing! It's because he is so ruthless about that kind of thing! Absolutely will not forgive. "Zijia's tone gradually became sad, "Too naive, too ungrateful for others."

Zhang Tianhe mocked: "Look at me, Zhang Tianshi." Only now did Zijia have time to sit down. For some reason, she wanted to smoke a cigarette very much. With a cigarette in hand, it was justifiable that she didn't have to talk. Zhang Tianhe said after a long while, "They all say he is your old lover." Zijia was annoyed, "I don't have to explain to anyone." "How can such an ordinary person be worthy of you." Zijia smiled and folded her arms across her chest. A few years ago, many people thought she was not good enough for him. "There are at least 300,000 people of that level in this city."

Zijia was still smiling, smiling, and suddenly felt that he called her here just to find out the relationship between Shi and Zeng Zijia? At the moment she remained calm. "You don't need to contact Eurasia anymore, I will send someone to connect." "Better." "Tell me, Zeng Zijia, are you a smart woman?" After pondering, Zijia replied: "I am very good at protecting myself. If I hurt others in the process, I will not regret it. However, I have never tried to frame or falsely accuse others for personal gain." Zhang Tianhe was a little confused, "Is this a good person or a bad person?"

Zijia thought it was funny, and answered for him: "Now the world is going downhill and morality is degrading. I don't think I'm a bad person." "Is he a good man?" "It's not my goal in life to be a good person." "What is your goal?" "To live and work in peace and contentment, it doesn't matter what you go through; if you finally reach your goal, you are successful." Zhang Tianhe stared at Zijia: "I don't know what price you are willing to pay." Zijia replied gently: "A good boss only needs to be on schedule, and doesn't need to know his buddies."

"My life circle is too narrow, I am out of touch with the outside world, I am afraid that people will think I am superficial." Zijia laughed: "Who, who would dare to say that? Why do rich kids need experience." Zhang Tianhe still wanted to express his opinion, Zijia looked at his watch, "Rongrong is still waiting for me." Zhang Tianhe didn't strike up a conversation. "You don't care about her academic progress?" Zhang Tianhe raised his hands, "I've already handed her over to you." Being able to be so reassuring shows that Zijia relies heavily on him.

He added: "You must think that trying to change Rongrong this time is not fair to her?" Zijia shook her head, "I don't think so." "Because you're a mentor?" "Because the world is generally fair, she must have a reason for being willing to accept such a test." "In the long run, it will be good for her." This is the truth. Three or two years later, when Che Rongrong can no longer wear a flesh-colored sequined skirt, the connotation will come in handy. "I want to go back," After returning to the apartment and opening the door, Che Rongrong hugged the pillow and slept peacefully.

She was so pretty when she was asleep, she was a little younger than when she was awake, as if she was only sixteen or seventeen years old. Many girls at this age still need a driver to take them to and from school. Che Rongrong is already a Ph.D. from a social university. Zijia was a little curious, under what circumstances did she know Zhang Tianhe, and under what opportunity did she win his heart? How would she negotiate terms with him, and how would she ensure that these promises would be fulfilled in the end?It is all knowledge, and it is much more difficult than talking about national affairs or protecting the environment in general. Zijia is willing to know the details, but it is not convenient to ask for details. She made a cup of coffee and continued to read the half-read supplement. Rongrong woke up and asked lazily, "What does Boss Zhang have to say?" "Call me badly." Zijia answered truthfully. "Did you cry?" "Who has so many tears, I will only frown when I get angry." "Did he express his dissatisfaction with me?" Rongrong was concerned about her own part. "Nope," Zijia laughed, "it's enough to scold one female employee a day." "Like him, it seems that someone should accommodate him when he was born." Zi Jiawen said to him: "People have destiny." "When I met him, he was working in a modeling agency and I was shooting commercials for his products." "At that time, I was still in middle school." "Well, I'm half a semester away from graduating, and my heart has already started to get wild. I never thought about doing a nine-to-five job, and I can't make money, Ms. Zeng." Zijia smiled and said nothing, it was all the truth, there was nothing to argue about. "I really wanted to get in and out and let out a breath of black air. Now that I think about it, I feel naive. Who should I show it to? In fact, I have no relatives, friends, or enemies. At that time, the so-called success in my mind was nothing more than better clothes and better houses. Bigger." Zi Jia smiled, "This is indeed a characteristic of success." Rongrong laughed, and she continued: "Zhang Tianhe came to see me shoot commercials, but the director was picky, and the filming was not over from ten o'clock in the morning until early in the morning. He was sitting there, making a few phone calls, and instructing the driver to buy a commercial. Fruit, it wasn't until the filming was over that he expressed that he wanted to send me home, that I realized he was waiting for me, and I thought he cared about the production." Zijia smiled. She could imagine that back then, Che Rongrong's big eyes were clearer, her small face was snow-white, Chang Tao's figure had just formed, and her whole figure was like a living doll. Zhang Tianhe immediately wanted to please her. "Following him, I have everything," Rongrong said, "There is a classmate in the class who is the most exaggerated. Wearing both gloves, he said: Mommy bought it from Switzerland. In fact, you can find a hundred dozen in any department store. Later I feel proud, and I wear the Vesabex bought by Zhang Tianhe for extracurricular activities." Yes, not many moms can afford it. "I have always been very grateful to Zhang Tianhe." Zijia has a question: "Won't the adults in your family suspect that your material life has suddenly become richer?" Rong Rong suddenly laughed, pointing at Zijia with one hand, touching her chest with the other, and stopped after a while, then said: "My lord, what is my lord, you're still waiting for me to take the money back to supplement my living. In the later period, I will be regarded as a god, at least it is just for food and clothing." Parents, do you think they will go after the money?" Zijia said nothing, she was so naive that she made a fool of herself. Zhang Tianhe laments that his life circle is extremely narrow, but in fact Zeng Zijia is not much better than him. "I have been enshrining them for several years, and they have already moved out of the slums, and now they live quite comfortably." Zhang Tianhe changed her life. Rongrong said: "If I hadn't met Zhang Tianhe—" Zijia picked it up for her: "Then you will meet Liu Tianhe, Lu Tianhe, and Chen Tianhe." Rongrong understood immediately, and sadly replied: "Yes, you are right, I intend to find a way out, and this is the only shortcut." Tired of only having a pair of jeans besides the school uniform, all the things that are very common to other girls are dreams for her, and there are many beautiful girls in the neighborhood who are busy after marriage, and finally gained 20 kilograms after giving birth... Che Rong Mingjuan, who lives in Rong's humble room, had already decided to fly out. "You're right," she said to Zeng Zijia, "it won't be Zhang Tianhe, it will be Li Tianhe." "Zhang Tianhe is better," Zijia smiled, "Zhang Tianhe is not mixed with Tianliang." "Yes, I am very lucky." They laughed. Zijia opened the English textbook, listened to Rong Rong's English conversation, and corrected her wrong accent. Rong Rong said, "Your English is like Linga style." Zijia said: "Remember, don't mix English when speaking Chinese. Even if you can speak English, people will not regard you as a genius. It is very superficial to mix both Chinese and English. Otherwise, you should speak all English. French. Or Russian. " "It's Miss Zeng." "When you meet people, be hypocritical, always turn the corners of your mouth up, and smile like we're going out to a meeting, even if your heart is bitter, sour and astringent, don't show it on your face, if you don't even have the ability to control your five sense organs, Go home and cry bitterly, don't come out to this world." Rongrong stuck out her tongue, "Yes, yes." Zijia sighed, "No more, I have already passed on all my knowledge to you, I'm afraid you will fail like me." Rong Rongqi asked: "Failure, why?" "Look at me, until now, I have nothing, no business of my own outside, and no one calls me mother at home. So far, I have only been a monk for a day to beat the clock." Rongrong didn't take it seriously, "Hey, I almost cried when I heard that, Miss Zeng, you are so humble with such a famous name, do you want me to follow suit?" "If you want, one day you will become famous and people call you a big star, how do you answer?" "I said where, I'm just a sideshow." They laughed together. This is Zeng Zijia's first happy job in many years. Throughout the evening, Che Rongrong practiced looking at people's noses when talking with them. She admitted that she used to talk either by reading the newspaper or staring at the TV. Also, she kept yawning and didn't think there was anything wrong. She just chatted, so why did she come to be serious? It was a waste of hard work. Zijia also said to her: "Shoes are shoes, and slippers are slippers. Why do you use flat heels as slippers? It's so sloppy. Don't tilt your feet when you sit on a chair. Please, don't shake your feet. The trees shake and the leaves fall. Shake Fubo. Also, don’t put the key ring on your finger and jingle the bell, heh Rongrong, what can I do with you, you have so many bad habits, you are riddled with holes, spit out your chewing gum come out!" "Also, don't touch your hair and earrings all the time. It's called scratching your head. It's very ugly. Please go to the bathroom to put on rouge. It's indecent in public. Even if you think the topic is boring, don't take out the small mirror frequently to relieve boredom by looking at your face." "Also, don't talk about yourself when there are more than two people in the room. Please care more about others and understand current affairs. Many people in the world are suffering. It is enough to let your lover know that you are unhappy for a moment." Rongrong promised, "I can do this, but it's probably impossible to do that, you can try that..." "What can't be done?" "How do you fix lipstick if you don't look in the mirror?" "It's obviously a small mouth, but it's painted like a bloody mouth, and I think it's beautiful." "Big mouth is popular." "I really hope that monocular will be popular next year." "Miss Zeng Zijia, sometimes you are really mean." "Ah, you don't need to learn this kind of skill." "Thank you, Miss Zeng." Che Rongrong is also about to emerge from blue. "Miss Zeng, who do you usually hang out with?" "A stuffy bunch." Rongrong said: "It is conceivable that everyone looked into everyone's eyes when they were talking, thank you, you are welcome, and you are smiling, but this is it?" "Completely correct." "Take me to them." "Yo, visiting the zoo?" "See and see, open your eyes." "Not necessarily a good experience." "Let me go out, as a dress rehearsal." Zijia thought about it, "Don't wink at boys." Rongrong was annoyed, "Then what should I do with my eyes, they are straight and hooked?" She was very emotional, "Still looking at the ground?" "It's best to close." Zijia still took Rongrong out. That's her gang; old colleagues and old friends, usually five or six people, have regular monthly dinners. There were originally a total of twelve people, but they never arrive. They usually have a big meal at noon on Sundays, talking and chatting Tongue complaints, back home, another hero, start all over again. It's really inappropriate to bring Rongrong to this kind of occasion, but why not, it's good to see if she can't pass the test of the big sisters. Zijia and Rongrong were ten minutes late. These girlfriends have become accustomed to being punctual, and entertainment is just like business. Seeing Zijia all turned their heads, "Hey, why is there a child who is as beautiful as a flower?" Zijia introduced them: "Ye Xiuting, Zhong Yinyan, Zhao Jiehua, Wang Riying, Liu Baoming, Wu Shanna, some are unmarried, some are married, some are divorced, all full of complaints and bitterness." The girls spat at Zijia loudly, "Fuck you." Rongrong just laughed horribly, sat down quietly, ordered a glass of mineral water to drink slowly. Only Zhao Jiehua asked in surprise: "Who is the kid?" "My distant cousin." "Come to the summer vacation, it's time, this is their golden years, really want to enjoy it, mom really loves you, buy Armani for you to wear, be careful not to spoil." Wang Riying said: "When we were young, we had nothing to enjoy." Wu Shanna said: "Hey, hey, don't destroy your prestige, my little sister is only twenty-eight and a half years old this year, and she is still young." "He's only nineteen years old." "She's so small, I'm not too big." "Yes, yes, you are really good at speaking." "Sister Rong, ignore them, come and talk about yourself, do you have a boyfriend, what university do you study in, and when will you graduate?" Rongrong just laughed. She didn't want to lie to them, so she didn't want to speak, but just smiled. Ye Xiuting said, "You kind of thieves seem to frighten people." Zhong Yinyan said: "No way, we are frank and cute, aren't we little sisters?" Rongrong didn't dare to answer. Seeing that she didn't want to talk too much, everyone returned to the usual topic. Zhao Jiehua asked Wu Shanna: "How is your father?" "Eighty-five years old, what can you say, go away at any time, he knows, we also know, the mouth just doesn't say it, once it calms down, everyone is sad and doesn't know where time has gone, what a girl I am, father I was already the eldest when I was born, so I suffered a lot." After hearing these words, Rongrong thought about it in her heart, and couldn't help but wonder. Wang Riying changed the subject: "How was the trip to Europe?" Liu Baoming replied: "I lived in Nice for a month and didn't go to other places." "The south of France is poorer." "Miss, traveling is nothing more than shopping for fashion for you. There are other things in life." "Everyone has his own aspirations, don't quarrel." Zijia asked, "Is it nice?" Liu Baoming sighed, "I don't need to do it day and night, everything is beautiful." "Where is the best place to honeymoon?" Ye Xiuting laughed, "If someone is willing to marry me, I'll treat you to a honeymoon." Rongrong only felt that such a dialogue was wonderful. Zijia asked, "What progress have you made in your work?" "It's all promoted." Wang Riying raised her hand, "I didn't get promoted." "Fuck you, you only got promoted six months ago." Ye Xiuting said: "I bought a life insurance." "Yes, you should buy it. You are a single mother. If anything goes wrong, your daughter will be protected." When talking about their children, their faces were peaceful, "It's great that Xiuting has a daughter." "Raising children is hard work." "Definitely fun and rewarding." "It's the same as everything in the world. If you don't pay, you will get nothing." Zijia took a look at Rongrong, afraid that she would yawn, but she didn't, Rongrong concentrated her attention. It's no wonder that the speeches of this group of big sisters are more exciting than many funny dramas. "Hui Fengxing finally invited Salina." "Isn't Mr. Guan working for Supreme Foreign Firm?" "The contract expired, and she and the boss had no intention of renewing the contract, so they had to start from scratch. She is now with Huifeng's foreign class Wilson." Zijia remembered, "This Salina seems to have a husband." "She doesn't talk about it much, but she always mentions a young son who is about five or six years old." Zijia thought for a while, "If her husband is not just a shadow, if her husband can support her spiritual and material needs, do you think there is such a powerful woman as Guan in this world?" Wang Riying said: "What's so great about Salina? She sells herself as a performer and lets everyone know about it. She smiles secretly behind her back. She is a really capable woman. She can retire at the age of 23. She has accumulated over 100 million yuan. Can't get a handle on it." Zijia remained calm, and glanced at Rongrong out of the corner of her eye. I saw Rongrong's eyes wide open, with a smile on her mouth, listening attentively to her sisters' speeches, completely staying out of their way. Oh, it worked. This is social etiquette, in front of outsiders, don't reveal what's on your mind at all, no matter how unhappy you are, you must never look unhappy and resentful. Qian Yinyan said: "I think it is difficult to save 10 million, let alone 100 million." Wang Riying replied: "Miss, money makes money, and if you double it, you will get money." "A person like Salina, who has posture but no reality, what will happen in a few years? Many young and beautiful junior sisters will come out to fight for jobs." Zijia laughed, "Hey, I don't see you caring about me that much." "Sanna is immigrating." "Where are you going?" "When people from all over the world come to Vancouver, I naturally go with the brigade." "Do Chinese people look like lemmings?" "Don't think like that, you'll be unhappy if you get into a dead end." "I heard that even though the weather is beautiful and the food in Huaxia is delicious, Bibang still feels lonely." "Naturally, loneliness is everywhere." "Some people regard it as a new beginning. It is also a good thing to leave all unpleasant people and things behind, throw away old troubles, and start a new life." Liu Baoming smiled, "I just hope no one knows." Then the food came, and the crowd was busy eating and drinking. Zijia felt that it was almost time, so she said goodbye with Rongrong. "Hey, we have to visit the company." "Next time, my hands are rough, I don't see what I want, and my heart doesn't move." "Come on, Zeng Zijia." After getting into the car, Zijia smiled and asked, "How is it?" Rongrong looked at Zijia and suddenly said, "They're all smart and stupid, aren't they?" Ga? "Where did you say that?" "It's not correct to say that there is no intelligence. They all command Ruyi with high salaries and are independent, but such smart people have no long-term plans. They are worse than us. Just imagine that more than 100,000 modern professional women have reached the age of fifty. What will happen." Zijia was taken aback, and stared at her, "pointing at Sang and scolding Huai." "No no, you're not inside." "I can still represent them." Rongrong apologized silently. "Che Rongrong, you're right. We can follow the example of our father's generation until we reach retirement age in our fifties, but it's a bit of a problem for women to be self-reliant when they grow old. Also, after my father's generation retires more or less We can enjoy the blessings of children and grandchildren, we don’t have a family, we must be lonely.” "That's right," Rong Rong said, "a moment of smugness doesn't really elevate the status of women." Zijia looked at Rongrong: "What about you, are you worth over 100 million?" Rong Rong suddenly became shy, "Not yet, where is it?" Zijia sighed, Rongrong really learned to be humble. "Rongrong, do you think the group of sisters are ridiculous?" "How dare I laugh!" Zijia laughed, "Fortunately, you are too stupid, otherwise you would not be able to stand out." For some reason, these words seemed to offend Rongrong, so she fell silent. It took a long time before she said: "If I have the ability, I will study for a few more years, so that I can attack and defend." Zeng Zijia said in her heart: Fortunately, you don't like to study, otherwise you would have paid off, you would be a talented governor. If she came out to do things, mediocre people like Zeng Zijia would really starve to death. "I'm tired, Ms. Zeng. I've made an appointment to play cards. I'm going to play all night to refresh myself. I'm leaving early." Zijia couldn't laugh or cry, and only went to play all-night poker when he was tired. This is the logic of which country. When she got home, Zijia called Wang Riying: "How is my cousin?" "Pretty, without character." Zi Jia smiled and succeeded. "Children of good birth are often dull, so the opposite sex likes wild roses." "Riying," Zijia suddenly remembered, "what are we?" Wang Riying was very proud: "We are trees." "Is it a shrub or a bush? The former deciduous in winter and the latter a holly conifer." Wang Riying sighed, "I hope I can withstand the wind and rain." "Riying, if you have a son, will you rest assured that he will go with my cousin?" "I'm afraid I can't climb high." Zijia was very satisfied with the answer, but she dared not forget that everyone in the Zhang family had a thousand times more powerful eyes. "Where did this girl come from?" Zijia nonsense: "Honolulu, her parents want her to learn from me." "Learning from you, laughing to death." Zijia protested, "What's so funny?" "Thousands of learning, how can I learn from you and me, working as a job, being angry and hard, and never going beyond life." "How do you say the tone is sad, all life has a dark side, no matter how hard we work, we are no more resentful than the rich young lady." "Zeng Zijia, stop shouting slogans." Zijia hung up the phone. An idiot like her, who knows how to cunningly take advantage of opportunities, can survive. After a while, someone knocked on the door, and Zijia went to have a look. It was Zhang Tianhe again. Zijia was very surprised, when did this happen, how did this person enter the room?No male colleague has ever entered Zeng Zijia's apartment. Even at the ambiguous stage, Zijia still prefers to meet outside. But Zhang Tianhe didn't know when he started to come and go when he liked. However, what he said seemed to be business affairs, so he had to be let in. Sure enough, as soon as he sat down, he asked, "How is Rongrong? Time is running out." "Better send her to Switzerland for a two-year course in manners." Zhang Tianhe laughed, "There is no time." Zijia suddenly said: "Too little time, too many beauties." When Zhang Tianhe heard this, he was overjoyed: "You are really my confidant, Zijia." Zijia let out a sigh of relief, "Have you thought about doing other things?" "This is insulting me. Jinxing Company is responsible for its own profits and losses. It has never lost money. It pays fourteen months of salary every year. If any girl is willing to commit herself to marrying, I have the ability to make her well-fed. I can also guarantee My children will receive the best education, live a carefree life, and enjoy life as much as I do." He spoke so confidently that Zijia was speechless. After a while she said, "Will it be a waste of time..." "No, I can use my life and time as I like. Do you think Zhang Tianci can do a lot? I think he likes playing numbers games too much. He is so busy that he doesn't even have time to rest. Also, Zhang Tianli is It's not that I'm crazy, I spent many years in the Gobi working with dinosaur bones, hey, I'm much healthier and more normal than them." As if the words made sense, Zijia laughed. "So," she teased him, "you're the smartest and most accomplished brother?" "How do you know? That's exactly the truth." So he didn't want to go out to accept the test, so he simply hid in his luxurious small building to form his own system. "Zijia, today I have a suggestion." Whenever the boss has a bad idea, the buddy has to play with him. Zijia could only smile and said, "Let's hear it." "Zijia, you might as well be promoted to be my personal assistant." Zijia was discouraged, "Don't you already have Yilian?" "My father's personal assistant, who has been with him for more than 30 years, is still a good friend." He means follower.near friends.Respondents, people like this used to be very popular. Every boss is accompanied by one or two little people, like the personal maid in the wife's house. Zijia said directly, "This is not a position." "Tianci has a man and a woman by his side, and they are very satisfied with what they have done." "I heard that it is difficult to find a job in Canada." Zijia's face was livid. "Okay, okay," Zhang Tianhe retreated, "it's just a suggestion." Zeng Zijia's back was covered with cold sweat. She asked Zhang Tianhe: "Is there a menu, Chinese or Western?" "At Yilian's place, it seems to be Chinese and Western dishes. Don't worry, Rong Rong has a lot of experience in eating. She has eaten all over the world in the past few years. She knows that fresh reeds can be eaten with her fingers." Oh, that's great, Zeng Zijia is most afraid of eating crabs with chopsticks, how to eat?I had to sacrifice all the fresh meat, and it seemed that I had to ask Che Rongrong for advice.
