The warm sun is shining high, and the golden light falls on the glass curtain, reflecting the shining luster.
Xu Yizhong sat at his desk with his back to the light, flipping through the documents and contracts in his hands with his slender fingers, his thick eyebrows furrowed, as if he had some unsolvable problem.
Suddenly, with a snap, he threw the contract in his hand on the table. Assistant Ethan was just about to come in. He was startled by his anger. He straightened his face and walked in, "Mr. Xu."
Xu Yizhong couldn't hide his anger and asked, "Where is Linda who is in charge of this project?"
"Tell her to come see me!"
"How can such a project be sold? It is exactly the same as the planning project of Guangxia Group!"
Ethan kept silent, with a look of embarrassment on his face, "Linda...she...resigned."
When Xu Yizhong heard this, he looked at his assistant with cold eyes. The assistant lowered his head in panic and said nothing, waiting for criticism.
After a long silence, Xu Yizhong tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table. The knocks made the assistant panic. After a long time, he heard Xu Yizhong say, "You are responsible for the recruitment. It is time for the design department to recruit new people."
The assistant let out a long breath and nodded quickly, "Yes, I'll do it now."
As soon as he reached the door, he paused and asked, "Mr. Xu, will your wedding to Miss Caring still be held as scheduled?"
Hearing this, Xu Yizhong frowned slightly and thought for a long time without answering.
"Mr. Xu?"
He pinched his eyebrows and said in a deep voice, "As scheduled."
As soon as the assistant left, his cell phone rang. Looking at the two words flashing on the screen, he was in a daze and did not press the answer button.

Haiyao spent a whole day running around but couldn't find a suitable job.
I rushed back in the afternoon to accompany my grandma. Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked to the door, I heard grandma's laughter.
Haiyao was surprised to find Zhenghuan who was talking to her grandma. She smiled and walked in, "Care?"
"Why didn't you call me when you came over?"
Caring sat next to grandma, holding her hand tightly with one hand, and said with a smile, "I happened to be passing by and wanted to give you a surprise. Who knew you were not at home, but grandma is at home."
Haiyao was naturally happy that someone came to accompany her grandma. Caring rarely came here. This was the first time she took the initiative to visit. She was naturally happy and walked into the kitchen with a smile. "Grandma, let Caring chat with you. I'll prepare."
Dinner tonight.”
"Oh, stop working so hard, just ask the servant to do it." Grandma said distressedly, and upon seeing this with concern, the smile on her face suddenly became much stiffer.
She knew that grandma liked her, but grandma liked Lu Haiyao more!
As long as Lu Haiyao is around, she will quietly carve up her share of things...
When she was a child, before Lu Haiyao came, she was the best, had the best grades, was the most beautiful, and even attracted the most attention from boys, living a life like a star...
However, that year, she transferred to another school and became her deskmate. Her teachers and classmates liked her very much.
Even though she is not as good-looking as me, more people like her...
She was jealous, but she pretended to be envious and said, "Haiyao, look how much grandma loves you."
Hearing this, Hai Yao smiled knowingly.
Little did he know how dazzling his smile was in caring eyes.
When Xu Yizhong came back from get off work, he was surprised to see Caring here!
When he met Caring Caring's slightly smiling gaze, he frowned and immediately glanced at Haiyao. Seeing that she was talking to Caring Caring very calmly, he couldn't help but feel solemn.
The food was on the table, and he happened to be back, but Hai Yao did not call him. Instead, she asked with concern, pretending not to be familiar with him, "Mr. Xu, don't you want to eat together?"
Xu Yizhong looked at Hai Yao, who was busy with her head down. She didn't say anything for a long time. He looked back and said, "I still have something to do, don't wait for me."
After finishing speaking, he walked upstairs.
Seeing him walking upstairs, I felt uncomfortable in my concern. I was helping to bring the dishes to the table, but suddenly my mind wandered, and the plate slipped and fell to the ground with a clang, and the juice from the dish was also messed up...
Hai Yao quickly turned off the fire and came to her side, "Are you okay? Is it hot?"
Haiyao hurriedly grabbed the concerned hand and looked at it to make sure it wasn't burned. Then Haiyao breathed a sigh of relief and blamed, "What are you thinking about? What if it gets burned?"
"Fortunately, my clothes are just dirty. Go to my room and find some clothes to change into."
Caring forced a smile, and while Haiyao was cleaning up the mess, she walked upstairs...
Grandma saw it in her eyes. After all, it was someone who had come here and felt something was wrong, "Haiyao."
"Go up and find some clothes for Caring. After all, Caring is an outsider. We'll have someone come and clean it up later."
Haiyao laughed when she heard her grandma say that Caring is an outsider, "Grandma, are you still afraid that Caring will steal my things?"
Grandma felt uneasy and said, "Grandma, that's not what you meant. You'd better go up and have a look. I know you believe in caring, but think about it, Yi Zhong is also up there. They don't know each other well in the first place. Caring went up to change clothes. How could they bump into each other?"
Isn’t it embarrassing?”
This was something Lu Haiyao had never thought of. The smile on her face gradually dissipated. In order to reassure her grandma, she had to put down what she was doing and said, "Okay, okay, I'll go up now."

Upstairs, there was the sound of rushing water in the bathroom. Xu Yizhong heard the sound of the door opening and naturally thought it was Hai Yao.
It happened that he had forgotten to bring his pajamas, so he shouted from inside, "Haiyao, help me get a set of pajamas."
After a while, there was a knock on the door. He opened the door and was about to reach for his clothes, but was surprised to see concern.
"why you?"
She cares and bites her lips tightly, tears welling up in her eyes immediately, "If it's not me, who do you want? Lu Haiyao? It turns out that what you told me was all lies, saying that you two were just pretending to be together, I seriously thought you were
