Stand-In Boyfriend Fu Zheng Ji

Chapter 66 Goodbye Grandma
Yan Yuan didn't get Zhang Ling's answer, so he went to work in his own car.

Zhang Ling didn't know whether Yan Yuan felt relieved of hurting Chen Jian and being hospitalized because of her words.

With Yan Yuan's character, she wouldn't be worried about his heart troubles.

Now she is more looking forward to Li Xiang's curious and surprised eyes when she attends grandma's birthday party at night.

It's an interesting scene just thinking about it in my head.

At a crossroad near the company building, Zhang Ling's is waiting for the traffic light.

She accidentally saw the glass window not far away, Xiao Jin was sitting with a man wearing a peaked cap, having breakfast in an intimate manner.

From the back of the man, I feel a little familiar. Want to further confirm who the man is?
Finally, the time came for the man to stand up and leave hand in hand with Xiao Jin.

When the green light came on, the cars waiting behind had already eagerly started honking their horns.

Zhang Ling could only drive away quickly.

Although she couldn't see the man's face clearly, she could tell from his figure and behavior that the man was probably Zhang Yu.

On weekdays in the company, Xiao Jin is notorious for hating Xiaosan.

What puzzled her was how could Xiao Jin and Zhang Yu appear in an ambiguous manner?

She clearly remembered that Zhang Yu brought his wife at the class reunion.

That Zhang Yu's wife is obviously not the same person as Xiao Jin.

However, these are not important to her now.

Because since Zhang Ling was promoted to the vice president of the group, the office has moved to the group building in another block.She is no longer working in the same place as Xiao Jin.

She met the group personnel manager Ming in front of the office building.

"Vice President Zhang, good morning! What a coincidence, I can meet you here." He deliberately stood in front of Zhang Ling and said.

"Morning!" Zhang Ling looked at Manager Ming, who was panting heavily, and guessed that this was definitely not a normal encounter, so she put on a professional smile and continued, "It turns out to be Senior Ming. I don't know what can I order from Zhang?"

Manager Ming waved his hands with a modest smile and said, "I don't dare to order, Vice President Zhang is now the group's celebrity."

"Senior's words are serious. The junior just wants to serve the group with all his heart. How can there be any talk about whether he is popular or not? If the junior does something wrong in the future, I hope the senior will not hesitate to teach me."

Zhang Ling could hear Manager Ming's resentment.

The reason is that during the regular meeting last Friday, she proposed that the staffing secretary had no work experience at all.

As a result, her work efficiency has dropped by 30.00% compared to before.

The general manager of the group was furious about this, and especially criticized the personnel, and ordered that Zhang Ling must be replaced by an experienced secretary before next Monday.

Otherwise, let Manager Ming pack up and leave.

Manager Ming said: "I came here just to inform Vice President Zhang in advance that the competent secretary arranged by the group will be on duty today."

"Okay, then Senior Lao Ming will take care of it." Zhang Ling didn't expect that Manager Ming's work efficiency was quite high.

Because Zhang Ling suggested from the first day she took office that it was inappropriate to work as a secretary.I have communicated with Manager Ming many times to change to a more powerful one, but to no avail.

Later, she heard that Manager Ming was a well-known perfunctory procrastinator in the group.

Reluctantly, she could only specifically raise the secretarial matter at the regular meeting held by the general manager.

Manager Ming waved his hands with a bit of shame and said: "Before, I caused inconvenience to your work, please forgive me by Vice President Zhang."

She could see it.

Manager Ming deliberately picked this time to block her, in order to seek forgiveness.

Because she even heard that Manager Ming was famous for his thick skin.

I used to hide the prizes of the annual meeting of the group, and after I was caught, I calmly put down the prizes, pretended to have amnesia and left; I often talked to my female subordinates in the office, but was angry when she was rejected by Zhenlie's female subordinates, and fired her female subordinates on the grounds of misconduct...

Zhang Ling didn't want to have any unbelievable topics with such a bottomless person, so she could only smile and say, "Understand!"

Only then did Manager Ming get out of the way, stood beside Zhang Ling and said with a smile, "It's getting late. Vice President Zhang, let's go in together."

"Okay." Zhang Ling breathed a sigh of relief and walked into the gate of the group together.

She was right.

Sure enough, this old guy was determined not to let Zhang Ling in unless he got "understanding".

Later, while waiting for the elevator with Manager Ming, Zhang Ling accidentally learned that her new secretary was Xiao Jin.

Manager Ming said enviously: "Vice President Zhang seems to be very popular no matter where he works. Xiao Jin heard that he is going to be your secretary, and he will come here even if he recalculates his seniority."

Zhang Ling, who was a little surprised at first, was also moved a little bit in her heart.

Xiao Jin looks innocent, friendly, and has good professional skills. The most important thing is that she knows her habits and can cooperate with her very tacitly.

To be honest, just looking for a work partner, she still likes Xiao Jin a lot.

However, after the last incident of being adopted by the company, she felt that Xiao Jin was not as innocent as he appeared on the surface.

time flies!

After Xiao Jin took up the job, she completely put herself into an immersive working state.

If Xiao Jin hadn't kindly reminded her before leaving get off work, she would have almost forgotten that she was going to grandma's birthday party.

Xiaodouzi is in the orphanage.

Xiaodouzi, who just came back from school, was excitedly preparing to eat, but accidentally ran into Li Xiang's arms while running.

"Dad, why are you here?" Xiaodouzi looked up at Li Xiang suspiciously.

Li Xiang smiled and said, "Of course Dad misses you."

"Oh, really?"

Xiaodouzi, who has long learned to read words and expressions, has a calm expression when she hears this sentence, because she can't feel Li Xiang's so-called miss.

Instead, she intuitively told her that Li Xiang's arrival was mostly because of Zhang Ling.

Li Xiang said a little strangely: "Why do you look at Xiaodouzi in a low mood? Is this something unpleasant you encountered at school today?"

Xiaodouzi had an idea and found an excuse, shook his head and said, "Because I didn't see the fireworks show in Disneyland last night."

"Oh, that's it! Then Xiaodouzi is blaming mom and dad." Li Xiang said.

Xiaodouzi explained: "No. Because the dean's mother said that my parents also consider my health. I don't want Xiaodouzi to get sick again because of watching the fireworks show. So this Xiaodouzi can understand."

Li Xiangxin smiled and said, "Well, not bad! Next time, Dad promises to take you to see the fireworks show again."

"Why not today?" Xiaodouzi asked.

Li Xiang said: "Because my father's grandma is celebrating her birthday today. Would Xiaodouzi go to eat a big cake with her father? By the way, your mother will come too."

The clever little Douzi couldn't tell from Li Xiang's expression.

Because when Li Xiang said "Your mother will come", there was a clear sense of uncertainty in his expression.

"Really! Where is mom?" Xiaodouzi looked excited, looking for Zhang Ling around.

Li Xiang looked at Xiaodouzi's response with a black line, and he thought he had made it very clear.I didn't expect the child to react like this.

"That little bean! Don't look for it, your mother didn't come to pick you up today. She said she would go directly to the birthday party..."

Xiaodouzi thought that if her mother really wanted to take her to the birthday party, she would definitely come here to pick her up in person, and it stands to reason that her father, whom she had only met once, would not come alone.

Then there is only one explanation: Mom and Dad had a conflict because of something.

Dad is going to use her as a bait to lure mom to the birthday party, or to look for another opportunity to try to resolve the conflict with mom.

Xiaodouzi really doesn't want to be used as a tool by others.

"No! Little Douzi can't go."

Although I really want to go, but because of the hurdle in my heart, I can only say no.

Li Xiang asked in surprise, "Why?"

I never wanted to take the little girl's favorite dessert cake, and Zhang Ling, who Xiaodouzi trusts the most and wants to stick together all the time, tempted him, but they didn't get a positive answer.

Which link is wrong?He desperately needs to figure it out.

Xiaodouzi habitually touched his earlobe and said, "That's because Xiaodouzi just promised his mother to be a good student yesterday. The homework left by the teacher today has not been done yet. So I still finished eating in the courtyard, so I can hurry up." Finish your homework."

The smart little bean has always done his homework as much as possible during the break time.

The little girl had already finished her homework at school today, so she just made up a high-sounding reason for not going.

"That's it! You should listen to your mother and be a good student."

Li Xiang was depressed, and felt that his plan to use Xiaodouzi to lure Zhang Ling, who left angrily in the morning, to grandma's birthday party was about to go to waste.

He habitually raised his hand and rubbed his chin with the mouth of the tiger, thinking about what to do?
The best plan of taking Xiaodouzi to the birthday party fell through, so there is still a plan to let the parents of both parties meet in advance.

Just go to Zhang Ling's house and invite his father to participate.

The biggest risk of this approach is that the two of them appear close at the birthday party.

Otherwise, the parents of both parties will set the wedding date on the spot.

He, Li Xiang, is not willing to marry Zhang Ling as the real Li Xiang.

Of course, there is another, opposite risk with this approach.

That is, Zhang Ling never thought about marrying him, and was forced to break up completely when he pushed too hard.

The scene of the hospital this morning appeared in Li Xiang's mind, and he was sure that if Zhang Ling's father was invited to the birthday party, it would probably lead to their complete breakup.

He really didn't dare to take the risk.

Of course, Li Xiang also has a plan whose success rate is not too high no matter how checked.

That was the plan to invite Yan Yuan to go with him.

This plan also has an unpredictable risk.

Regardless of whether Zhang Ling can come to grandma's birthday banquet in the end, because of Yan Yuan's words and deeds, grandma might misunderstand that Li Xiang is a person with two legs.

The best plan was gone, and he didn't dare to take risks with other plans, which made Li Xiang even more sad.

Suddenly, there was a rush of phone ringing.

I guessed it must be grandma without looking at the caller ID carefully.

He answered the phone subconsciously, and said in a sluggish tone, "Ma'am, what are you rushing for? I said that my grandson is going to pick up Ling'er, and he will be there later."

"Where did your bastard grandson go to pick up Lingling?"

"Where else can I go? Naturally..."

"Shut up! Lingling is here now. You, the pick-up guy, haven't shown your nose yet."

"What? Zhang Ling has already gone!" Li Xiang yelled in an instant in high spirits.

……

Xiaodouzi who was standing aside immediately regretted what he had just said.

Not right!

Xiaodouzi thought to herself that her intuition was never wrong.

What happened today?
Mom went to the great-grandmother's birthday party first, why did dad only pick her up alone?
Xiaodouzi instantly felt that Zhang Ling no longer loved her as much as before.

It was all because of the man in front of her who she had called Dad since yesterday.

Xiaodouzi's malice towards Li Xiang was finally suppressed temporarily yesterday, but it was aroused again because of this incident today.

The little girl did not impulsively make trouble with Li Xiang in the most primitive way like ordinary children. Instead, after Li Xiang hung up the phone, she put on an innocent smile and rushed towards her.

"Dad, I'm going to find Mom. Please take me with you."

Li Xiang was almost fooled by the little girl's behavior.

He changed his mind within a phone call.

He looked at Xiaodouzi hesitantly and said, "But you didn't mean to listen to your mother and be a studious student. Dad can't affect your desire to be a good student."

The little guy slapped his head and said, "Oh, Xiaodouzi just remembered that most of the homework has been done at school, and I can finish the rest in 10 minutes."

"Really!" Li Xiang looked at Xiaodouzi suspiciously.

"Really. Dad, why don't you take me to find my mother?" Xiaodouzi said coquettishly holding Li Xiang's thigh.

……

Li Xiang didn't know that Zhang Ling had just used tricks to make Chen Jian give up and continue to create troubles. Instead, he personally created new obstacles for his relationship with Zhang Ling.

Zhang Ling drove to the appointed place according to the address.

This place is really hard to find as Li Xiang said.

She drove the car around three times this week, and only through the guidance of her grandma's phone, she found the entrance of the alley.

Here is a weeping willow with a diameter of more than one meter. Because the branches and leaves are too lush at this time of year, it completely blocks the entrance of the alley.

Passing through a dark alley, stepped on the old stairs, and stood at the door of a room that seemed to have experienced a big fire. At a glance, the walls in the room were all black.

If it wasn't for seeing the familiar figure of the old man sitting in a wheelchair waving to her.She even suspected that she was in the wrong place.

"Lingling, you are here. Come in, come in and sit down." Grandma greeted her warmly.

Grandma's face was bloodless, but upon closer inspection there was still a slight tinge of blue.

"Grandma, I'm here." Zhang Ling walked into the room with a bright smile without even thinking about it.

Grandma was very satisfied with Zhang Ling's natural reaction.

It can be seen from this that Zhang Ling is not the kind of girl who hates the poor and loves the rich.

Holding Zhang Ling's outstretched hand with one hand, grandma's eyes were full of excited tears, and the other trembling hand stroked her cheek.

"Daughter-in-law, I haven't seen you for a long time. You seem to have lost weight. You must have been working very hard recently. You must eat a few more bites of meat when you eat later."

"Well, I will." Zhang Ling responded with a smile.

She loves the sinking feeling of chatting with grandma.

For her it was simple happiness.

Even fantasizing that this state can be maintained forever.

"You must be tired after working all day. Sit down, just find a place to sit and chat with grandma." Grandma greeted politely while sitting in the wheelchair.

"it is good!"

Zhang Ling got up and saw that there was no other furniture in the environment in front of her except a table with four chairs.

She still didn't think much about it and just moved a chair and sat beside grandma.

Grandma liked Zhang Ling more and more when she saw Zhang Ling in front of her.

Because for the elderly, only a woman like Zhang Ling is worthy of her grandson Li Xiang.

Grandma held Zhang Ling's hand tightly with both hands and said, "Grandma heard that you have been supporting a girl in the orphanage. That girl has been calling you mother all the time. Do you plan to adopt that child after you get married in the future?"

Zhang Ling fell into a brief thought...

Because she hasn't thought about it yet.

Or she never thought she would get married in the first place.

Even if I get along well with Li Xiang now, I never thought about it.

She knew that Grandma's asking this question must be because she was worried about the existence of Xiaodouzi, which would affect the relationship with Li Xiang in the future.

Zhang Ling naturally understood grandma's thoughts and would not have any opinions.
