time-limited addiction

Zhou Luchen gently dusted off the cigarette ashes and said in a low voice, "If you don't come down, I'm leaving."

That sentence just passed through the receiver.

Looking at him from a distance, Shen Jing asked for no reason, "Did I do something wrong?"

The atmosphere was silent for two seconds.

"No."

The black suit held up his sculpted shoulder line, mixed with a little smoke, rising up and captivating his whole body. He lowered his head slightly, and his whole person was relaxed and elegant, but looking at him made him tired.

It's that obvious.

Shen Jing was a little dazed.

I don’t remember when I touched his reverse scales and picked his dragon tendons.

"It's very late, why don't you go back to bed first? I've already changed into pajamas and am going to bed. I'm very tired from work today."

This was her rejection, even if it was tactful.

Zhou Luchen slowly threw away the cigarette. The cigarette made his throat hoarse, and he said in a low voice, "Yeah."

It's ridiculous. He has everything he wants in his life, and there is nothing he can't get.

Cut off the call.

Zhou Lüchen opened the car door and didn't stop for a second.

The cold blue car taillights gradually disappeared, and Shen Jing closed the curtains.

As the car left Xihewan, Zhou Lüchen was always punctual only for shopping malls, and there was also Shen Jing, who returned to Beijing on time, but did not get any benefits.

He was not as out of control as he imagined.

Lu Siyuan gave Zhou Lüchen a peace charm, but Zhou Lüchen didn't even remember how disdainful it was.

Lu Siyuan fell down and fell twice while filming a movie to hang Wia. Later, she went to Hong Kong City to find a master to draw talismans and asked for two peace talismans.She would say, my boss is so kind to me. I have nothing to give to my boss, so I will give you the peace charm. I will give you my peace and hope that my boss will have a safe life.

Ming Ming accepted it with a smile, but when he turned around, Zhou Lüchen asked Zhuang Ming to throw away the garbage.

People in Hong Kong love Feng Shui.

But his life is good and he doesn't need it.

How could the peace of his life be controlled by a red rope, how could it be controlled by a pale prayer lamp.

The car stepped on the accelerator to the bottom and left Beijing.

the next day.

Shen Jing got off work at noon and drove to Taihe Central Courtyard. She only saw servants taking care of the 4000-square-meter lawn in the garden.

and Zhuang Ming feeding the goldfish.

I thought Zhou Lüchen was still in the capital, but he wasn't.

"He's not in now?"

"The second young master has returned to New York. His father has something to do with him."

Shen Jing's eyelids were inexplicably heavy, "Didn't he just come back? He is so busy, so it would be better not to come back, and his body would suffer a lot."

"Yes." Zhuang Ming said as he took out a pen and wrote down the password to the villa door. "This is the password. You can come over at any time."

Shen Jing put away the paper.

Zhuang Ming nodded to her, and when he left, he stopped and said, "Lianxing is actually very busy. He is either flying to Switzerland or Paris. He used to come to Beijing just to see the old lady. Otherwise, what do you think he could do if he stayed in Beijing? , the headquarters is not in Beijing, if it weren’t for you, he wouldn’t come to Beijing frequently in recent days.”

Shen Jing pursed her lips and looked at the colorful koi in the pond, "I know."

When he is around, foreign online meetings accompany him to adjust his work and rest. He also has online meetings with him in the middle of the night at the New York headquarters building. The international closing volume, transaction volume, and a large amount of funds have to go through the bank.

Shen Jing thought for a while, "It's also obvious that he is in a bad mood. In the past, he would not lose his temper with me even if he was tired from work. This time, it is probably because I provoked him."

Zhuang Ming looked at her downcast face for a long time.

"He's not angry." Zhuang Ming added, "But I'm sorry, I am employed by the Zhou family and will not be overly involved in his personal affairs. Therefore, I cannot answer your question. If you need a driver, please tell me. I only have These responsibilities.”

"Go and drive when you have time." Shen Jing turned and left.

Zhuang Ming agreed and sent her out.
-
Meeting room on the top floor of the Bank's headquarters building in Manhattan, New York.

The 4-meter-high armored bulletproof door opened, and senior executives walked out of the conference room in an orderly manner.The door is closed again.

conference room.

Behind the water curtain.

Zhou Lu sat quietly and said nothing.

In front of him was a chess set with a waist studded with tiny diamonds, which was priceless.

The gold and silver two-color chess set inherited from European aristocrats in the last century, the king and queen, soldiers and generals, and the characters carved in seals are lifelike.

The chess game reaches the middle game.

Sitting opposite Zhou Lüchen was Zhou Zhengliang.

The secretary and assistant stood beside him, reporting financial report data.

Zhou Lüchen signed with a pen, glanced at the chessboard indifferently, moved the chess with one hand, and escaped from the predicament.

The game has changed dramatically.

At this moment, Zhou Zhengliang was facing off on the chessboard, pushing the golden chess piece in his hand, "You go back to the capital every day, do you miss your second grandma?"

Zhou Lüchen raised his head and smiled coldly, "You are quite free."

At these words, Zhou Zhengliang expressed his disdain for the lenient control and said, "We will not accept the funds from Huadalas."

"Dr. Zhou, warm water." The secretary next to him leaned over Zhou Zhengliang.

Zhou Zhengliang didn't respond. He took the warm water handed by his secretary and took a sip with a gentle manner.

"Whatever you do, you must be worthy of your grandfather. His reputation must not be ruined by our descendants." Zhou Zhengliang added.

Zhou Luchen pushed gently with his slender fingers, and the silver chess general eagle occupied the enemy's position, "Clear."

The gold-plated chess piece was in Zhou Zhengliang's hand, "Why isn't Zhuang Ming here? I wouldn't worry if it wasn't Zhuang Ming who was with you."

Zhou Luchen was very indifferent, "He stayed in Beijing."

Four simple words, why is the meaning of staying in Beijing obvious? Zhou Zhengliang's expression became more unhappy, and he put down the water glass, "I am not satisfied with the Shen family."

It's really simple.

Zhou Luchen was neither happy nor sad, his calm eyes fell on the chess game, and he easily counterattacked, leaving no room for the golden chess player.

"Whatever satisfies you."

When Zhou Zhengliang looked at the chess game again, he was already the loser. After decades of fighting in the whirlpool of power, he was still not as good as his own son.

However, Zhou Zhengliang was calm enough to deal with it, "I've seen her before, she's not suitable for you."

"Learning from you? Marrying a well-matched daughter of an official family and letting her live there until you die, not even wanting to go home to take a look?"

Zhou Lu's deep voice was not gentle, and his aura was impressive. He was still equally matched in front of his biological father, who had played a lot of games with the rich and powerful.

There is even more uncontrolled arrogance and confidence.

A trace of regret flashed in Zhou Zhengliang's eyes, "Back then, I..."

Zhou Lüchen raised his eyes and blocked Zhou Zhengliang's words in a very faint voice, "What are you doing?"

you.

not you.

With strong self-control, Zhou Zhengliang was not angry at all and admired his son's courage and methods from the bottom of his heart.

However, the elders' private matters should not be explained to him. They are already old matters and have nothing to do with him being in charge of Lian Xing.

His wife liked the song and dance troupe in Yangli. In the past, she wanted her to accompany him to Switzerland, but she was never willing. On international long distances, his wife could only say, "Mr., please be safe abroad."

He and her were just a marriage, both parties were tied together voluntarily, without any emotion or force.

Is he ruthless? He won't think about this problem.

After the game of chess was over, Zhou Luchen stood up and went straight out, heading towards the CEO's special staircase.

The secretary and assistant packed up their files and computers, said goodbye to Zhou Zhengliang, and followed closely behind.
