Cheng Zitong stood up and put on his clothes while dialing Ziyin's phone number. The other party said that the call could not be reached at the moment.
His movements paused for a moment, and she thought he had something to say to her, but then he called his assistant Koizumi and gave instructions in an orderly manner.
The general idea is how to find Ziyin.
Fu Yuan'er closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep and ignored it.
After he finished speaking, he opened the door and went out.
"Zitong is up," this was my mother's voice, "the bread will be ready soon."
"Mom, I'm in a hurry to leave." This was his voice.
Fu's mother was stunned for a moment, then watched him open the door and leave without looking back.
"This...he hasn't washed up yet..." Fu's mother whispered.
Turning around, she saw Fu Yuan'er standing at the door of the room, looking at the closed door in a daze.
"Yuan'er?" She called softly.
Fu Yuan'er smiled at her: "I've made a lot of bread so I can take it to the newspaper office to flatter my colleagues."
Fu's mother had nothing to do, so she studied baking at home, and her level was close to half a master.
Some colleagues occasionally eat desserts and say that the ones they buy are not as delicious as the ones made by their mothers.
"Stop talking about flattering your colleagues. Tell me first, why is Zitong leaving in such a hurry?" Fu's mother asked.
"Just... some things in the company."
Fu's mother didn't believe it, so she told the truth to Fu Yuan'er, "Two days ago, I reminded him implicitly that if he treats you badly, I don't mind if you choose Ji Senzhuo or someone else again.
"
Therefore, Cheng Zitong brought his wife to please his mother-in-law yesterday.
Under such circumstances, the mother-in-law made bread with her own hands, but he could leave without applauding her. How could it be just because of the company?
Oh, it turns out he did this on purpose because of such twists and turns.
He was really interested in her.
But Fu Yuan'er didn't feel any joy from it. It didn't matter if he was interested in her again, it wasn't because of Zi Yin that everything was overthrown.
"Mom, Ziyin is missing."
"Who is Ziyin?"
Fu Yuan'er told her mother about the relationship between Zi Yin and Cheng Zitong.
"Oh," Fu's mother exhaled after hearing this, "So that's it. It seems that he is also a person who attaches great importance to friendship."
Fu Yuan'er said nothing.
Fu's mother looked at her depressed look and couldn't help but want to laugh, "Are you jealous?"
Is she jealous?
Logically speaking, she can't do it. There are so many women outside Cheng Zi and Zi. If she wants to be jealous, it's not Zi Yin's turn.
She leaned her head on the armrest of the sofa, feeling a little annoyed at herself. She knew clearly that Cheng Zitong had a "bad record" when it came to women, so why didn't she keep her feelings safe.
"Mom, I'm not jealous, I just think this matter is not easy." She replied.
Fu's mother didn't ask further questions, just said: "If you think it's not simple, just go figure it out. Gu Ying feels sorry for himself and no one will sympathize with him."
Yes, no one sympathizes with Gu Ying's self-pity, and it's not her style.
"Mom, is there red bean filling in the cheese bread?" She wanted to cheer up and go find out the matter.
Mom's cheese and red bean stuffed bread played a big role, and the two colleagues she "bribed" with it gave her important information.
There is a 24-hour bookstore in the south of the city, which can accommodate people who have nowhere to go at night.
Coincidentally, the computer system at the bookstore broke down last night, and it was repaired by a girl who stayed overnight, and this girl's characteristics were very similar to Zi Yin's.
Fu Yuan'er found this bookstore calmly.
Sure enough, she saw Zi Yin, who was sitting in the corner with a cup in his hand.
coffee, and a professional book as thick as a thumb placed in front of me.
Leaving aside other times, Ziyin at this time looked like a professional from head to toe.
An idea came to Fu Yuan'er's mind, but she thought it was too incredible and immediately put it aside.
She walked up to Ziyin and said, "I didn't expect you also like drinking coffee."
Ziyin raised his face and showed his usual innocent smile: "Little sister."
Fu Yuan'er sat down in front of her, "Why didn't you go back to Cheng's house last night?"
"You and brother Zitong won't let me live in the Cheng family anymore." She said matter-of-factly.
Fu Yuan'er remained calm and continued to ask: "Then where do you plan to live in the future?"
Ziyin pouted with a pitiful look on his face: "I don't dare to go home, the little rabbit is very pitiful... I don't know where to go."
She didn't say that the rabbit was okay, but when she mentioned the rabbit, Fu Yuan'er couldn't think that there was nothing wrong with her.
"Zi Yin, I met the nanny from before that day..." She deliberately mentioned this topic and stared at Zi Yin's expression.
Not surprisingly, she saw a flash of nervousness in Ziyin's eyes.
However, after being nervous, Ziyin became frightened again, "She...did she kill the little rabbit again..."
She was confused for a moment, not knowing if Ziyin was pretending to be too similar or if there was no problem at all.
But if there is no problem, what does the nanny say?
Fu Yuan'er remained calm: "She didn't kill the little rabbit, she just said a few words to me."
"It's just good that she didn't kill the little rabbit." Ziyin was relieved.
"Not only did she not kill the bunny, she also said that she had never killed a bunny." She still stared at Ziyin.
Ziyin's face suddenly turned pale, "Little sister, you...what do you mean?"
The flaw has finally been revealed.
Fu Yuan'er decided to strike while the iron was hot, "What do I mean? You should know very well. Don't you remember what you have done?"
Ziyin looked at her in panic, as if the secret in his heart was about to be revealed...
She stood up hesitantly and wanted to run away.
Fu Yuan'er also stood up, blocking her way, "Zi Yin, why don't you think about it again, who killed that little rabbit?"
"Ah...ah!" Ziyin suddenly screamed and ran forward.
But he bumped into Fu Yuan'er and fell to the ground with a bang.
Fu Yuan'er was slightly stunned. Before she could figure out what was going on, a male voice sounded: "Zi Yin!"
A familiar figure rushed up, grabbed Ziyin's arm with a strong hand, and pulled her in.
Ziyin seemed to be hurt by the fall, so he burst into tears and threw himself into Cheng Zitong's arms.
News about him came quickly too.
"Brother Zitong," Ziyin cried, "little sister said I killed the rabbit!"
Fu Yuan'er was stunned and immediately defended herself: "I didn't say that."
"Then what did you say?" Cheng Zitong looked at her and asked coldly.
Fu Yuan'er was immediately speechless. What did he mean now? Was he helping Ziyin to seek justice?
It's such a pity that she doesn't have Ziyin's justice here.
"She knows very well who killed that rabbit!" She dropped these words and walked away.
"Wait!" Cheng Zitong stopped her.
She stopped, holding a glimmer of hope in her heart that at least he would let Zi Yin confront her.
"Don't worry about Ziyin's affairs from now on." However, this is what he said.
Fu Yuan'er closed her eyes. She felt as if someone had punched her heart hard. The pain was so dull and deep that she almost couldn't breathe.
She lifted her steps and walked out of the bookstore.
She returned to the newspaper office, and unsuspectingly, her mother was sitting in the office waiting for her. The absent-minded expression on her face all fell into her mother's eyes.
"Mom..." It was useless to find any excuse now.
"What's going on?" Fu's mother asked.
Fu Yuan'er had no choice but to tell everything about Zi Yin and her suspicions about Zi Yin.
Fu's mother frowned when she heard this. Now she can understand where her daughter's heart is.
This matter is not as simple as jealousy at all.
"Mom, don't worry," Fu Yuan'er held her mother's hand, "Cheng Zitong doesn't want me to take care of her, so I won't."
Fu's mother would not believe that she would really not care.
She still knows what her daughter is like.
But she did not continue to worry about this, but changed the topic, "I don't know how to deal with you and Zitong's affairs, but I have something that I need your help with."
"What's up?"
"Mrs. Ji invited me to dinner and specifically hinted that I should take you with me."
Fu Yuan'er's mind turned around and realized that her mother was very measured in what she did. Since her mother felt that she needed to go, there must be places where she felt it was necessary.
"Now?" Fu Yuan'er asked.
"Is it convenient now?"
Fu Yuan'er glanced at the time and said, "I have a short meeting of one and a half hours. Just wait for me here. Can we go after the meeting?"
Fu's mother nodded.
After Fu Yuan'er went to the meeting, she sat in the office and thought about Zi Yin.
The office door was suddenly pushed open, and the assistant at the newspaper office couldn't help but be surprised, "Auntie is here too, that... reporter Fu's husband is here."
As expected, there was Cheng Zitong standing next to her.
Fu's mother smiled and nodded: "Zitong, you are here, come and sit."
In fact, she was gnashing her teeth in her heart, little bastard, you still know how to chase me!
After inviting Cheng Zitong in, she revealed her true emotions, "Zitong, are you here to apologize to Yuan'er?"
Some conflicts cannot be known to outsiders, otherwise they will only see jokes.
Cheng Zitong raised his eyebrows: "Did Yuan'er tell you the matter?"
"I only know that you have a bad attitude towards her," Fu's mother shrugged disapprovingly, "I have important things to do today and I don't have time to worry about your affairs."
Then she added: "Yuan'er will go out with me later. If you have anything to ask her, she probably won't have time today."
Cheng Zitong's eyes dimmed slightly and his lips moved, but he didn't speak.
At this time, Fu's mother's phone rang, and she answered the phone with a smile: "Don't worry, Yuan'er still has a while, we will be here later."
When she put down the phone, Cheng Zitong said: "Mom, since you have something to do, I will come see her at another time."
Fu's mother nodded and watched him leave without saying a word.
Not long after, Fu Yuan'er came back from the meeting.
Fu's mother didn't mention Cheng Zitong's coming, and left together after Fu Yuan'er had packed up.
Mother Ji was very sincere today and treated her to a Michelin restaurant.
This restaurant requires reservations three days in advance, so Mother Ji didn't suddenly want to treat her, there must be something special going on.
"Mom," Fu Yuan'er was a little nervous before getting out of the car, "Aunt... she doesn't want me to agree to marry Ji Senzhuo..."
"Of course she has such thoughts," Fu's mother smiled, "but she can do whatever she wants in this world?"
Fu Yuan'er breathed out. She was worried that her elders would kidnap her morally, but with her mother's support, she suddenly felt a lot more powerful.
