The next morning at 7 o'clock, Xu Shu, who wandered until two or three o'clock in the morning and went home to sleep not long after he was awakened by a call from General Manager Liang and asked him when he would be back.

Some detailed plans for subsequent construction by the project technical department require further verification and support from the biology.

Xu Shu promised to reply in the past two days. After answering the phone, he lay on the pillow and continued to close his eyes, motionless.

After a while, another message was received by the mobile phone. This time it was sent by Zhao Nanxiao.

She had just woken up and was completely sobered up. She was still lying on the bed. Thinking of her loss of composure last night, she felt a little embarrassed and asked him if he had woken up.

Xu Shu replied to her, and the two of them made a few gossips to each other. Finally, Zhao Nanxiao said that he was fine today and asked him if he had any arrangements.

She waited for him to make an appointment with him, but unexpectedly, he didn't answer the topic. After a while, he talked to her and said something about something from the project department urging him to reply. After saying a few words, he seemed to hesitate and asked her when she planned to go back.

Zhao Nanxiao was stunned and immediately said that he would make arrangements and tell him when he was sure.

The next day, he received a call from Zhao Nanxiao, saying that she would come home from get off work early today and ask him to go to her house for dinner tonight.

In the evening, Xu Shu went over, Chen Xiaoman opened the door for him. Seeing that he brought fruit again, he smiled and blamed: "Xu Shu, why are you doing this? Come here for dinner and you are the only one who comes. Xiao Nan and I can eat at home. How much can we eat? A waste of money."

"It's okay, I'll buy it on the way. Auntie, don't meet me." Xu Shu said with a smile.

Zhao Nanxiao heard the sound, ran out of the room and picked him up.

The supper was cooked by Chen Xiaoman himself, and it was all the flavors that Xu Shu liked. Chen Xiaoman was very enthusiastic at the dinner table and frequently asked him to eat more.

Xu Shu was a little irritated, but he still ate two bowls of rice. After the meal, he was watching TV in the living room. Zhao Nanxiao helped his mother clean up in the kitchen. After a while, she brought the cherry he had just washed to his side, sat down, picked up one, and fed it to his mouth.

Xu Shu ate, looked at the direction of the kitchen, and finally couldn't help but whisper: "I have to leave, can you go back with me now?"

Zhao Nanxiao said: "I was just about to tell you this. Didn't my mother have an old problem some time ago? After thinking about it, I decided to stay at home for a few days. Some time, an expert came back from abroad and I wanted my mother to check it out. I'll go there again after the matter is over. Can you go first?"

She looked at him with apologetic eyes.

Xu Shu felt a sense of loss and uneasiness, but he nodded immediately: "No problem, there is not much work in the design institute on the project anyway. If you stay at home with peace of mind, your aunt's health is the most important thing. Then I'll pass tomorrow."

"Okay, that's all. I'll go there if I get ready. Your plane ticket hasn't been decided yet. I'll take a look for you..."

She took out her mobile phone to find the information on the ticket and smiled: "What a coincidence, I bought it so late, and there is still an economy class. It seems that it was just reserved for you. I bought it. Do you like to sit or not..."

She was complaining about him, and Chen Xiaoman walked out of the kitchen.

Xu Shu immediately stood up: "Aunt Chen!"

Chen Xiaoman asked him to sit, and he sat on a sofa diagonally opposite the two of them, and smiled and said, "Xu Shu, I'll go back tomorrow, right? Don't work too hard. Be there alone. Pay attention to rest and work and rest."

Xu Shu thanked repeatedly.

Chen Xiaoman glanced at his daughter sitting with him and smiled and said, "I have already decided that you are my future son-in-law. I am just such a daughter, I will entrust her to you, don't let me down."

"Mom, what era is it? Is it your goods or not? " Zhao Nanxiao smiled and opposed his mother's words.

"Okay, I said it wrong, and I changed it to entrusting it. Is this okay?"

Chen Xiaoman also smiled, and after saying that, he looked at Xu Shu.

Xu Shu tightened and paused: "...Auntie, don't worry, I know, I won't let you down..."

"That's good. Auntie appreciates you very much. Do what you say. Since you are busy with work, then go back first. Xiaonan will go there later. If you chat, aunt will not disturb you. Go to the studio first, so that Xiaonan will not think that I am working on your light bulb next to you."

"Mom!" Zhao Nanxiao's ears are hot.

Chen Xiaoman stood up with a smile, turned around and went to the studio.

Zhao Nanxiao pulled Xu Shu to his room and said to show him some of the latest information videos sent to her by his grandfather a few days ago. The two of them sat on the head of the bed and watched together. She continued to feed him fruit. After a while, Zhao Nanxiao saw that he was out of control and seemed to have a divine life, so she asked, "What's wrong with you? You seem to have something to worry about?"

"without."

Xu Shu was furious and immediately smiled.

"It was Mr. Liang who was urging him tightly. He just watched the video and remembered the laboratory incident." He explained again.

Zhao Nanxiao was relieved and laughed: "I really didn't expect that the bad boy who used to worry about people all day long is still thinking about work outside. He really looks at him with admiration after three days of separation."

Xu Shu laughed dryly: "Don't make fun of me."

Zhao Nanxiao turned around, leaned his arm against the head of the bed and looked at him, his eyes not blinking.

Xu Shu was gradually feeling guilty when she saw him: "What are you looking at me?"

Zhao Nanxiao smiled: "I didn't make fun of you. Xu Shu, to be honest, you sometimes really surprise me."

He was puzzled.

Zhao Nanxiao said: "I mean the night of your friend's wedding the day before yesterday was like that. Why didn't you touch me again?"

Xu Shu immediately understood what she said, his heart beat faster and he couldn't speak for a moment.

Zhao Nanxiao glanced at him: "Aren't you very brave at that time? Why don't you speak now?"

Xu Shu was sweating a little on his back, and he looked at her and laughed dryly again: "...So you are not drunk?"

"I'm drunk. Although I can't wake up, I'm still a little conscious at the beginning..."

She stared at him, her eyes were moist under the light.

"Say, why did you run away later? Do you don't want me anymore?"

Her tone seemed to be questioning.

Xu Shu was startled and immediately denied: "How is that possible?"

"Then why did you stop again?" She refused to give in.

Xu Shu paused, and said, "Aren't you married me yet? When you really become my person, if you dare to get drunk outside again, you can try it!"

Zhao Nanxiao looked at him for a while and pursed his lips.

"Fool……"

She said softly, put her arms around his neck and kissed him in the mouth.

After a while, the two of them hugged each other and fell on her bed. On the side, on the laptop's display screen, the academic video was still playing, and the sound was constantly blocking the gradually rising breathing.

Seeing that he slowly stopped again, Zhao Nanxiao thought about it and asked him in a low voice: "Do you want me?"

He didn't say anything, but lay on her, his face buried in her gradually growing soft hair, motionless.

He will go back alone tomorrow.

To be honest, if he touched her the night she was drunk, she wouldn't blame him, but he endured that opportunity in the end, which really touched Zhao Nanxiao.

I can do that, either I don’t like it or have no interest, or I really love her, so I respect her so before marriage.

She felt that he was a little depressed at night, and suspected that it might be because she would not go back with him tomorrow. After thinking about it, she quickly made a decision and bit his ear and said, "Why don't I go to your house tonight? I'll just say it to my mother."

He didn't react at first, and after a moment, he slowly turned off her body, lay down on his back with his eyes closed, and after a while, he sat up and whispered to her back, "No need."

Zhao Nanxiao paused and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

After Xu Shu finished speaking, he immediately turned around and explained: "Don't get me wrong. I think we are not married yet. What if your mother has any opinions about me..."

Zhao Nanxiao looked at him for a moment, smiled, shook his head, and said softly: "It's okay, I'll just talk about it."

...

That night, Xu Shu drove home and parked at the door.

He looked at the closed iron door in front of him and did not open it immediately. He continued to sit in the car like this. After a moment of concentration, he suddenly started the car again, turned around and galloped away. He arrived at the headquarters of the group and sat in the waiting room outside his father's office.

Xu Zhenzhong is still outside now and has social engagements. He doesn't go home after the night. He said he will go back to the company directly, pack up his things and take a plane abroad overnight to attend an international business conference held tomorrow.

"Mr. Xu, do you want to ask Secretary Duan for helping you, and when will Mr. Xu come back?"

An assistant from the secretary's office came over to pour tea again. Seeing him leaning against the chair, his eyes were dark, he stared at the front, and he remained motionless for a while, and asked carefully.

Xu Shu said no.

At around ten o'clock, the assistant answered a phone call and quickly came over and said with a smile: "Mr. Xu, Secretary Duan just said that Mr. Xu is back and will be here soon."

After a while, a sound of footsteps came from the corridor, and seven or eight people followed Xu Zhenzhong and followed him in.

Xu Shu stood up.

When Xu Zhenzhong saw his son, he signaled him to wait and bring people into his office.

Xu Shu waited for almost half an hour, and the people finally came out of the office one after another, and greeted Xu Shu with a smile and warmly. The older generation called him Xiao Xu, and the younger one called him XCMG.

Xu Shu also laughed and responded one by one.

Secretary Duan came over and said that Mr. Xu asked him to go in.

Xu Shu walked into Xu Zhenzhong's large office.

He rarely comes here normally. After entering, he glanced around him for a moment, walked straight over, pulled a chair himself, and sat opposite his father's desk.

Xu Zhenzhong was still signing the documents, without raising his head, and while signing, he said, "I'm leaving later. Tell me what you have to do."

Xu Shu looked at his busy father, hesitated, and stopped again when he spoke.

Xu Zhenzhong urged: "What's wrong? What's the matter? I'm still here so late. Didn't you say you'll go back tomorrow?"

Xu Shu gritted his teeth: "Dad, I'm considering changing careers, let me tell you first."

Xu Zhenzhong stopped writing, raised his head, and looked at him in surprise: "Change career? I heard it right? Why did you suddenly have this idea?"
