My Wife is a Workaholic

Chapter 19: Hot pot that keeps turning

Zujin left work before it got dark.

But after returning home, Yan Lin was not there.

She didn't turn on the light, fumbled in the dimness and walked to the sofa to sit down, and then she stood motionless.

Too many things have happened these days, good and bad, making her extremely happy, and at the same time making her depressed to the extreme.

Although when she went to work during the day, she still behaved indifferently before the subordinates.

But it seems that life is like this, there is joy and sadness.

Yan Lin is here, but at the same time, Ji Desheng, a man who used to be like a father and a master, is drifting away from her.

Zu Jin is not a person who is not satisfied, but she will feel at a loss when facing this important turning point in her life.

Suddenly there was a beep from the hallway, and then the door opened.

Yan Lin changed his slippers and walked in. He seemed shocked when he saw the person on the sofa.

"Huh? Why don't you sit here without turning on the light?"

"Wait for you, why did you come back?"

Yan Lin shook the bag she was holding at her: "I went out to meet a few people, and then went to the mall to buy vegetables."

After speaking, he went to the kitchen to put the bag down, and then came out after washing his hands.

He sat down next to her, then took the person into his arms with his arm and patted her on the shoulder.

"Seeing you are in a bad mood, do you want to talk to me?"

Zujin was silent for a while before he said: "I have encountered a little trouble."

"What's the trouble?"

Zujin hesitated, but she thought her hesitation was a bit ridiculous.

Because she was a partnership with Yan Lin at first, and then she became a husband and wife.

At the moment, the board of directors is very likely to undergo major changes, and even she will be affected. At that time, the project they cooperated with may also be affected.

At this time, should she tell Yan Lin?

What I said, it seems that she, the president, is a bit incompetent.

"It doesn't matter if you don't want to say it." Yan Lin comforted her in a low voice.

Zujin sighed, then sat up straight.

She briefly told Yan Lin about the things Ji Shiyu did during the last business trip, the actions of the board of directors these days, and Ji Desheng's vacillating attitude.

After speaking, she raised her chin, her expression full of arrogance.

"You don't have to comfort me anymore, I just want to talk to you."

Yan Lin and her were so close, their breaths almost merged together.

He raised his eyebrows with a low smile: "I can see it, then I want to ask you, President Jin, there will be no problems with the projects that I cooperate with your Qiyu Group?"

"As long as I am still there, there will be no problems."

"Then I can rest assured." Yan Lin nodded solemnly.

The two sat on the sofa for a while, and then they went to the kitchen to prepare dinner together.

But as soon as he got up, Zujin's cell phone rang.

Picking up a piece, it was actually from Liu Wei.

"Hey, are you off work?"

"It's off work, what are you doing?"

Liu Wei smiled and said: "My husband heard that you are married, and he is looking for a man who is willing to be a full-time husband, so I have to meet, if you come, we will decide if you come."

"Why, you didn't tell him?"

Zu Jin refers to Yan Lin's true identity.

Liu Wei sneered: "I won't tell him that he has to eat with you, doesn't he just want to see your husband joke? I'm waiting for him to be slapped in the face!"

When Liu Wei said this, Zu Jin couldn't help but think of Liu Wei's poor-mouthed and arrogant husband. Thinking about his appearance in front of Yan Lin, the scene must be very funny.

"Okay, you decide, see you later."

After hanging up the phone, Zu Jin went to the kitchen and told Yan Lin.

Yan Lin said: "It just so happens that my friend will also have a treat tomorrow night, and everyone will meet together."

"Okay, then I have to dress up."

The two of them went upstairs to change their clothes, and then went out.

According to the address given by Liu Wei, they came to a hot pot restaurant.

In the middle of the night, when there was a lot of people, Liu Wei's son Bubu rushed over and held her hand without taking two steps after entering.

"Auntie!"

Zujin picked up the child and almost fell him when he was dropped.

"Baby, you are heavy again."

The child hugged Zu Jin's neck shyly, and coquettishly.

They came to the second floor, which seemed to have fewer guests, so it was quieter than the one below.

Liu Wei and her husband Jiang Kai saw them coming and immediately stood up with a smile.

After greeted each other and shook hands, everyone was seated quickly.

Jiang Kai said: "I don't know if Brother Yan can eat spicy, anyway, we and Zu Jin both like it, so we ordered a mandarin duck pot."

Yan Lin smiled: "I can eat a little bit."

"Hey, Zu Jin, you two are fast enough. I remember the last time we ate together, or at the beginning of last month. The other day, I said that I would have another Liu Wei from my family. Oh my God, you just got married, what's the matter with you!"

Zu Jin proudly said: "If you look at it, it's over. If you have to ink for three to five years, is it interesting?"

Jiang Kai and Zu Jin Liu Wei were both college classmates. At that time, Jiang Kai chased Liu Wei, but Liu Wei focused on studying and doing part-time jobs and so on, so he didn't agree.

Later, after graduating and working, the two met in the workplace, and then they were together.

But they also talked about getting married for two years.

"Then no matter how fast it is, at least you have to get along for half a year. You can get the certificate after you have dated a few times. I really didn't expect you to be such an impulsive person!"

Liu Wei hugged her son, bumped Jiang Kai with her arm, and said: "People are happy, do you care?"

"Fine, I won't say anything." Jiang Kai lifted his beer glass to Yan Lin, "Brother Yan, let's do one first?"

Yan Lin turned to look at Zu Jin: "Then go back and drive."

Zujin nodded: "You drink it."

The two men touched a glass, and Jiang Kai immediately filled their glasses again.

Looking at this posture, it seemed that he wanted to get Yan Lin drunk.

Zu Jin leaned into Yan Lin's ear and whispered: "Drink less, he will go crazy when he gets drunk."

Jiang Kai couldn't stand it anymore, and raised his finger to Zu Jin: "Hey, what are you doing, don't you want to protect your husband like this!"

Liu Wei gave him a white look and said to Yan Lin: "Brother Yan ignore him, he is a drunkard!"

Seeing that Liu Wei and Jiang Kai were about to quarrel again, Zu Jin had to make adjustments.

But then the phone rang again, and she saw that it was Xu Tianying who was calling.

Xu Tianying is her rare confidant in the shopping mall, and they will not hide from each other in many business dealings.

But in private, Xu Tianying is a play coffee, so the two of them don't play together.

At this moment, Xu Tianying called suddenly, and Zujin felt that something was wrong with him.

"I'll take a call."

She walked to the bathroom with her mobile phone, and Xu Tianying's anxious voice came as soon as she was connected.

"You can count on it!"

"What's the matter, call me now."

Xu Tianying said: "I heard some internal news. It is said that there are a few people on the Qiyu board of directors who have dug someone in the Southern Jiafu Group. That guy's methods are quite insidious. They are looking for such a person to come over. What are they going to do? Do it to you, you have to be on guard."

Zujin tilted his head and clamped the phone, turned on the faucet and washed his hands.

"I know, don't tell others about this, just pretend you don't know."

Xu Tianying hummed: "Then if you need help, remember to say, I just have some money in my hand, and Zhengshou has no place to use it. If you leave the open domain, I will give it to you immediately!"

Zujin took a piece of paper and wiped his hands, and said in a bad mood: "Whoever leaves the open domain, I will not leave! Okay, I won't be poor with you, I'm dead!"

Returning to their place after the call, Jiang Kai had never expected that Jiang Kai had already brought the topic to the full-time cook.

He exasperated and said: "Take a child to cook, that's a woman's job, and a man must be alone outside. Brother Yan is not what I said to you. Do you imagine that every penny spent after this has to be balanced. Your own wife wants it, are you embarrassed?"

It is estimated that Yan Lin and Liu Wei will deal with it for a while, and then they seem a little tired.

Therefore, Jiang Kai was the only one on the table who kept talking, while the other two people kept eating hot pot.

After Zu Jin sat down, Jiang Kai seemed to have found a qualified listener, and suddenly seemed more energetic.

"The man has been nestling at home, then it will be useless, Zujin, you are married, you don't even have a ring..."

Zu Jin and Liu Wei looked at each other, and both saw a trace of embarrassment in each other's eyes.

Zu Jin began to regret letting Liu Wei conceal these things, but they didn't expect Jiang Kai to be such a macho in his bones.

She hesitated how to speak, but suddenly there was a low voice behind her.

"President Yan?"

Zu Jin looked back and saw that he was a man about fifty or so, with a bit of silver hair and casual clothes.

However, at first glance, this person has been in a high position for many years. Although his face is full of amiable smiles, the temperament of the high-level person cannot be concealed.

He walked to Yan Lin's side and immediately bent over and stretched out his hand.

"Mr. Yan, I really didn't expect to meet you here. Last time we met in Linyuan, you don't remember me, haha?"

Yan Lin smiled, stood up and shook his hand: "I have the impression that you are Lin Yuan's friend and Tingyue's boss."

The man didn't expect Yan Lin to remember him, and his happy face flushed immediately.

At this moment, Jiang Kai, who was sitting opposite Yan Lin, seemed to wake up suddenly.

He stared at the man in a daze, and said loudly, "Wang Jun of Tingyue Assets! God..."

Wang Jun looked at Jiang Kai and then at Yan Lin: "President Yan, who is this?"

Yan Lin introduced Jiang Kai and Liu Wei to him, and when it was Zu Jin's turn, he stretched his arms around her waist.

"This is Zujin, my wife."

Wang Jun's expression was frozen in shock for an instant, he quickly looked at Zu Jin's eyes, and then immediately nodded at her to show respect.

"I've heard of you, President Jin, the CEO of Qiyu Group. I didn't expect you and President Yan to be a couple!"

With that, Wang Jun suddenly reacted and took out his wallet, handed Zu Jin a business card, and then handed two to Jiang Kai and Liu Wei.

"Mr. Yan, Mr. Jin, then I won't bother you two having dinner. Let's talk when we have a chance next time."

After Wang Jun left, Jiang Kai looked at the gilded business card in his hand, and then looked up at Yan Lin.

"Brother Yan, Tingyue Asset is our domestic one!" He said with a thumbs up.

"But why did Wang Jun treat you so respectfully just now? What are you doing?"

Liu Wei, who was sitting next to Jiang Kai, shook her head and sighed: "How come I was so blind back then!"
