Chapter Fifty-Five p1
Yu Zhao and Monica hit it off.
Very few girls could resist the temptation of “beauty.” She was no exception. Looking at those extremely beautiful and gorgeous dresses, she couldn’t help but admire and ask more questions. Monica didn’t mind her questions, whether superficial or simple, and answered them all generously and frankly.
As they talked, the two became more and more agreeable. When she noticed Yu Zhao’s eyes lighting up as she looked at a wedding dress she had made before, Monica couldn’t help but blurt out: “Actually, the wedding dress I put the most effort into was the one Little Wings custom-ordered. At that time, she had just secured her position as CEO, and it was the time for her to expand her power drastically. But for some reason, she suddenly turned down most of the company’s business, and spent all her time here, watching the birth of that wedding dress with her own eyes.“
“I swear,” Monica said with admiration, “of all the wedding dresses I’ve made, only that one can be called romantic and ideal!“
Yu Zhao was taken aback: “The Little Wings you’re talking about…“
Monica scratched her head: “Oh, it’s your girlfriend, Bo Chi. Sorry, the name Chi-Chi is too awkward, I think Little Wings is cuter.“
Yu Zhao’s smile gradually disappeared: “Yes, Little Wings sounds very cute… But why did she order a wedding dress? Has she been married before?“
Monica shrugged: “Of course not, I later found out that it was because Songrui was going abroad—“
Speaking of this, Monica suddenly remembered that the girl in front of her was Bo Chi’s new girlfriend.
Talking about her girlfriend’s ex in front of the current girlfriend… Hiss, if the CEO with the cute face knew, she would definitely be in trouble!
Monica quickly shut up, and tried to change the subject with a dry smile.
Unfortunately, Yu Zhao was not Bo Chi. If she wanted to know something, she would do whatever it took to find out.
Monica really couldn’t resist Yu Zhao, and when she looked at the sofa for help, she didn’t see Bo Chi.
She had no choice but to say dryly: “Little Wings and Songrui are good friends. Knowing that Songrui was going abroad to study and lay the foundation and market for the future expansion of her family’s company overseas, Little Wings was really reluctant to part with her, so, so she ordered a beautiful dress to try to keep her.“
Monica spoke vaguely, but Yu Zhao was not stupid, and easily understood the truth – Bo Chi liked Ming Songrui, and when she learned that Ming Songrui was planning to go abroad, she resolutely ordered this wedding dress and confessed to her, begging her to stay in the country.
The result was obvious, Ming Songrui refused for various reasons.
And now, Bo Chi had turned around and liked her, and coincidentally, she looked very much like Ming Songrui.
…
Was this really a coincidence?
Yu Zhao really wanted to convince herself, really wanted to make herself believe Bo Chi.
But the words of others still made her feel uncomfortable and jealous. It was as if she had seen with her own eyes how Bo Chi poured all her love into another woman.
Yu Zhao suddenly lost the desire to continue chatting, and when she looked at the dresses and wedding gowns again, she felt even more disgusted and repulsed. She forced a smile and said goodbye to Monica. Monica knew that she had said the wrong thing, and didn’t dare to keep her any longer, so she could only try to lighten the mood with an exaggerated and humorous tone.
Yu Zhao smiled symbolically, turned and came to the sofa, and saw that the black tea in front of the empty seat had already cooled down. She couldn’t help but be stunned: “Xiao Chi, has CEO Bo already left?“
Xu Zhidie stood up with the documents, her face showing a calm and intellectual gentleness: “Yes, CEO Bo never likes to spend time choosing clothes, she prefers to work and expand the market.“
Yu Zhao pursed her lips, and self-mockery suddenly welled up in her heart.
She said she didn’t like it, but didn’t she push aside all her work and spend time here just to witness the birth of that wedding dress?
Her dislike was probably because the person accompanying her today was not the person she really wanted to invite, right?
Yu Zhao completely lost interest in talking, and left with Xu Zhidie without saying a word.
Watching everything outside the window quickly recede, she felt an unprecedented confusion.
Why would someone say they liked her, but make her so sad?
The car sped all the way, and after entering the city, it stopped at a traffic light.
Perhaps feeling that the red light was too long, and it was too boring to wait quietly, Xu Zhidie suddenly spoke, her tone even: “Miss Yu, how is the script reading going?“
Yu Zhao came back to her senses, and said softly: “I’ve only read a few pages, and I haven’t had time to create a character biography yet. When I have time later, I’ll study it carefully.“
“That’s good.” Xu Zhidie said gently: “Your family is not well-off, relying on CEO Bo is not a long-term solution. If I remember correctly, the deadline written on your agreement is two years later, right?“
“Two years will pass in a flash. If Miss Yu doesn’t make a name for herself soon, the days ahead will be difficult.” As Xu Zhidie spoke, she seemed to remember something, and chuckled: “Speaking of which, two years later is the date when Miss Ming finishes her studies and is scheduled to return to China. It’s a pity, if Miss Yu is still here at that time, you will be able to see how much Miss Ming looks like you.“
Yu Zhao didn’t speak, but her hand on her knee slowly clenched.
When coincidences happened one after another, she had to come to a sober and sad conclusion – So all of this was planned. She was just a tool for Bo Chi to relieve her loneliness. The other party had already planned her ending, and wouldn’t even give her a little more time.
In that case… In that case, why not tell her clearly?
Was it very interesting to watch her become a sacrifice to this unrequited love?!
A fierce look appeared in Yu Zhao’s eyes.
Just as she said before, she was never a good girl.
None of the orphans who grew up in poverty were innocent. It was just that this was her first time experiencing love, so she was cautious and at a loss.
When she pulled herself out of love, she would no longer be deceived by sweet words.
If Bo Chi wanted to play with her feelings, then she could only tell Bo Chi regretfully – Sorry, you chose the wrong person.
Did you think about the consequences of provoking her?
Arrogant CEO.
**
Being a CEO was too hard.
Bo Chi found that since she came to this new world, every day when she opened her eyes, she didn’t see her wife’s beautiful face, but work, work, and endless work.
The domineering CEOs in novels who casually spent billions, how come when it was her turn, she became an emotionless worker working 24/7?
This wasn’t scientific!
Bo Chi, who had been working overtime at the company for two or three days, finally couldn’t take it anymore, and urgently called Xu Zhidie to work overtime on this day – there was no other way, she still had to work, otherwise, when her wife became popular in the entertainment industry in the future, what would she use to protect her and deal with haters?
Of course, she wouldn’t let Assistant Xu work overtime for nothing, the overtime pay would definitely be doubled.
Xu Zhidie rushed over.
When she answered the phone, Bo Chi vaguely heard the sound of water. Now, seeing that her clothes were not as meticulous as usual, but a little messy, and her shoulder-length hair was also damp, obviously she hadn’t dried it and had rushed over immediately. Bo Chi couldn’t help but feel guilty and coughed lightly, and said faintly: “I said it wasn’t urgent, you could have dried your hair before coming.”
A blush appeared on Xu Zhidie’s usually calm face, and she touched her hair a little uncomfortably: “I didn’t think too much when I heard CEO Bo’s order, I’m sorry, CEO Bo, I’ll pay attention next time… Thank you for your concern.“
Bo Chi hummed in response with a reserved look, put down the documents in her hand, stood up and said: “Just sit here and finish the rest of the work. The overtime pay has already been transferred to your card. I’ve also instructed the cafeteria, if you’re hungry in the middle of the night, just call them and ask them to deliver the food, they’re keeping the food warm.”
Xu Zhidie was slightly stunned, and her raised eyes shone brightly: “You’re letting me handle the work?“
Bo Chi had said a lot of words, and now she held the teacup and took a sip to moisten her throat: “Yes, we graduated from the same university, I know your abilities very well.”
“No…” Xu Zhidie’s face turned even redder. Under the light, she seemed even more beautiful than during the day, her eyes more charming: “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll do something that harms the company?“
Bo Chi said without hesitation: “I trust you, you would definitely not do such a thing.“
In the plot, no matter what the scumbag did, this assistant always followed her firmly.
When the scumbag set fire to the mountain, she added fuel to the flames. When the scumbag drank to drown her sorrows, she bought the wine. When the scumbag single-handedly bankrupted the company, she was busy but refused to leave.
In terms of loyalty, this assistant was impeccable, definitely the most loyal person.
Bo Chi held the script, and had an inexplicable trust in Xu Zhidie.
Xu Zhidie lived up to her trust, and said with gentle eyes: “Thank you for your trust, don’t worry… I will always follow you, until death do us part.“
Wasn’t this idiom used incorrectly?
Bo Chi muttered in her heart, but didn’t say it out loud to make fun of her. She nodded, gave a few more instructions, then left the company, got in the car, and said to the driver: “Go to Miss Yu’s.”
Halfway through the drive, Bo Chi’s stomach started to ache.
She belatedly realized that it was already past dinner time, and she had been busy with work and hadn’t had time to eat.
If Yu Zhao knew about this, she would definitely frown in distress.
Bo Chi thought for a while, asked the driver to stop outside the residential area, then walked into the row of stalls at the entrance, chose a relatively clean one, and ordered a fried rice.
Just as she buried her head and took two bites, her wife’s voice suddenly sounded not far away. Even though the crowd was noisy, she still clearly heard the other party’s uncertainty and surprise: “CEO Bo?“
Bo Chi’s hand holding the chopsticks paused, and she looked up in confusion, and saw Yu Zhao wearing casual clothes, holding a garbage bag in her hand, standing outside the stall and looking at her in a daze. Their eyes met, and Bo Chi said calmly: “What a coincidence, you’re also here to experience life?“
Yu Zhao: “…”
