Tu Nan noticed that recently, his boss's daily routine had been unusually regular.
He often stayed up late to work, and sometimes he would send a few work-related messages to his boss. He would only receive a reply the next morning. The snacks in his boss' drawer were gone, and his daily drink had been replaced with plain water. One day, when Tu Nan sent him a message, his boss actually said that he had to go for a morning jog and had no time.
Morning jog??
Are you sure he's an adult who's already working and not a well-behaved high school student?!
Tu Nan's shock quickly spread in the small group. Whenever Cheng Jun did not reply in time, Tu Nan and Fu Zicheng would chat meaningfully in the group chat.
"He must have gone for a morning jog again."
"No, it's getting late. Maybe he's taking an afternoon nap."
"He's eating a healthy meal, the kind without gutter oil."
"Hahahahaha, Boss, you've worked hard!"
[Tu Nan has been removed from the group chat. Fu Zicheng has been removed from the group chat. Jiao Fan has been removed from the group chat.]
Tu Nan was most shocked because he and Cheng Jun had known each other since they were students. At that time, Cheng Jun was famous for not liking to be restrained. He could not be found every two to three days. Even the Head of Teaching came to persuade him to participate in the competition. He said that he did not want to go, and he did not give face to anyone. Just like that, Cheng Juan's first place had always been steadily suppressing the second place, Tu Nan, from the first year to the third year.
Tu Nan had also asked him if he did not want to be in the limelight, why didn't he score lower?
Cheng Jun held a book in one hand and glanced at him from the corner of his eyes. He said that it was too troublesome.
If he made a mistake, he would be scolded, called to the office, written down as a punishment, and scolded when he left the classroom. His parents might even be called. Students with good grades had special privileges. It could only be said that Tu Nan was disappointing and did not have the ability to score first.
Cheng Juan, the untouchable flower in the hearts of students and teachers, suddenly raised his head at this moment and asked seriously and slowly, "How did you get such a simple question wrong?"
Tu Nan: "…" F * ck!
Tu Nan was depressed.
From then on, Tu Nan became Cheng Jun's little follower. He thought that following Cheng Jun would definitely be a good thing. How cool would it be to act cool in a group? Sure enough, Tu Nan went to college with Cheng Jun, started a business together, and started a company together. He watched as the small company rose at a speed that shocked the industry.
He was really convinced by Cheng Jun. He decided that in the future, his career would be unilaterally tied to Cheng Jun. Even when the momentum was at its best, he had never thought of establishing his own company. He expressed that he was willing to be Boss Cheng's bootlicker.
If he said he would be a bootlicker for a lifetime, then he would f * cking stay for a lifetime!
Now, watching Cheng Jun being controlled like he was going to a fully enclosed high school, Tu Nan was a little worried at first. He was afraid that the boss would be impatient and that he would quarrel with his sister-in-law — although Tu Nan's brain could not picture what Cheng Jun's quarrel would be like.
During lunch, Tu Nan planned to go over to see how the boss was doing.
Turning the corner, he saw his sister-in-law and the boss standing face to face in the corridor.
Ruan Qiuqiu raised her head and said, "Did you follow my instructions?"
Cheng Jun: "I thought …"
Ruan Qiuqiu: "No, you didn't."
Cheng Jun: "…"
It was reasonable to say that in the past, Cheng Jun would not even bother to talk to people, let alone say a word. Tu Nan cautiously poked his head out. Compared to Ruan Qiuqiu who was relatively petite, Cheng Jun was a little taller. He put his hands in his pockets and listened to Ruan Qiuqiu's words. His face was expressionless as he tried to resist Ruan Qiuqiu's fascist dictatorship with silence.
This time, Tu Nan really saw Cheng Jun's expression clearly.
From an outsider's point of view, Cheng Jun's indifferent expression probably meant that he was not very happy. Tu Nan had been with Cheng Jun for so many years, so he knew a lot about him. There was not the slightest bit of reluctance on Cheng Jun's face. Under Ruan Qiuqiu's control, he was unbelievably obedient. On the surface, he looked reluctant, but in fact, he was in a good mood.
The last time Tu Nan saw Cheng Jun's expression was when the company's first game was a big success.
Tu Nan: "…"
To use a slightly wretched and inappropriate word to describe Boss Cheng at this moment —
He was secretly happy! That's right!
No, Cheng Jun was being controlled so tightly. What was he happy about?
Tu Nan, who was single, looked blankly at Cheng Jun following behind Ruan Qiuqiu. The two entered the office one after the other, and the door was closed.
His mind flashed back to their school days. Cheng Jun's gentle and beautiful face was expressionless as he pointed at a math problem that Tu Nan wanted to ask him for advice.
— — You don't even know how to do this?
— — You don't even know how to do this?
— — You don't even know how to do this?
— — You don't know how to do this?
This question is too difficult! Single dogs can't! Do! Do! Ah!
Ruan Qiuqiu, who was sitting in the office, suddenly turned her head and looked back and forth in confusion. "Strange, why do I think I heard a dog barking? You can't keep a dog in the company, right? "
Cheng Jun calmly ate a fried egg. "You heard wrong."
"That's true."
Recently, Ruan Qiuqiu had been strict about Cheng Jun's work schedule and diet. In the beginning, she didn't intend to be so strict. She just wanted to raise the standards and wait for Cheng Jun to bargain. Unexpectedly, after a few days, Cheng Jun had a resigned look. Ruan Qiuqiu didn't allow him to eat, so he didn't eat.
As a result, Ruan Qiuqiu was a little embarrassed.
"Actually … It's okay to eat snacks occasionally. But it's better to drink more water and less soft drinks. "
Cheng Jun calmly stole a piece of chicken from Ruan Qiuqiu's lunch box. "Okay."
Ruan Qiuqiu:??? Did he think she was blind?!
In order to praise Cheng Jun's recent performance, Ruan Qiuqiu decided to buy him a few pieces of cake. As a surprise, Ruan Qiuqiu certainly couldn't say it out loud. She had already thought of an excuse to go out after her afternoon nap.
Unknowingly, Cheng Jun quietly walked up from behind. He was wearing a thin black down jacket with a sweater inside. His fingers were cold.
Ruan Qiuqiu, who was lying on the table, was sleeping soundly.
He stood quietly behind her. After a moment of silence, he slowly stretched out a hand, as if he wanted to rub her soft hair. The golden light shone in from outside the window. The two people's backs were coated with a layer of hazy soft light, making this scene look extremely beautiful.
The next second.
The skin around her neck was covered by cold fingers. It was like a snowball being thrown into the collar of one's clothes in winter. The bone-chilling cold made Ruan Qiuqiu quiver and almost jump out of the chair.
"What are you doing!" Ruan Qiuqiu was furious.
Cheng Jun: "I'm waking you up."
Ruan Qiuqiu: "…"
This dog of a man should just eat junk food until he dies.
Cheng Jun came out of Ruan Qiuqiu's office after being hit by a hammer. Ruan Qiuqiu really didn't understand why he was looking for trouble. He bumped into Gu You, whom he hadn't seen for a long time. The two of them looked at each other. Gu You smiled awkwardly and tried to find a topic to break the deadlock between the two of them. "I'm here to look for Boss Tu …"
Cheng Jun put one hand in his pocket and brushed past him. He looked as if he couldn't be bothered to continue listening to him.
Gu You: "…"
It seemed like he was being ignored again.
Work in the afternoon was busier. Ruan Qiuqiu didn't have time to go out. After work, she glanced at her phone and estimated that she could still buy a cake at this time. She asked Cheng Jun to wait for her at the entrance of the company. The two of them could go to a nearby restaurant to eat.
In the middle of spring, there were strong winds every two to three days. Ruan Qiuqiu shivered and felt a chill in her heart.
She wore a hat and a mask and walked quickly into the cake shop. She bought a piece of cream mousse, a piece of half-cooked cheese, and a piece of thousand-layer cake. After the shop assistant packed the cake, Ruan Qiuqiu carried a few pieces of cake and hummed happily as she walked in the direction of the company.
At this moment, she heard the noise of people talking from afar. Just at the entrance of the Jiacheng, there were a few people scattered around. Just a few meters away, a red car had crashed into a street lamp. The front of the car was dented and debris was scattered all over the ground. It was a tragic scene.
Ruan Qiuqiu instantly thought of the fear of almost getting into a car accident that night.
Her heart beat faster. Inexplicably, there was a kind of panic shrouding her heart. Her footsteps unconsciously quickened. The more she walked, the more panicked she became. In the end, she simply jogged forward.
"It's too tragic. After being hit like this, even if he didn't die, he would be half-dead."
"Could it be that he's an employee of the Jiacheng and got into an accident at the entrance?"
"He looks like a young lad."
"That's right …"
Ruan Qiuqiu's legs were half weak. She quickly squeezed in and finally saw what kind of scene it was. The man lying on the ground was unconscious and covered in blood. His sweater was dyed red, and there were several holes in his black down jacket. White fur squeezed out.
He was tall and thin. His black curly hair was scattered and covered his face.
How could Ruan Qiuqiu forget that Cheng Jun came to her office wearing this outfit today?
She lost all her strength and knelt on the ground. She quickly took out her phone and dialed 120. She was so flustered that even her fingers were trembling. A great sadness surged from her chest. Ruan Qiuqiu's hands were numb and she couldn't speak. Tears streamed down her cheeks. When the call was connected, Ruan Qiuqiu's voice was already sobbing. She cried as she told them the coordinates and begged them to come quickly. The injured person was dying.
Ruan Qiuqiu's crying was so conspicuous in the midst of the discussion that the people around her couldn't help but continue to talk with pity.
"It's probably the injured person's family. It's probably his girlfriend."
"So pitiful …"
"Sigh …"
Tu Nan went out with Cheng Jun. Cheng Jun looked like he couldn't be bothered with him. Tu Nan said happily beside him, "Let me tell you, I might be in love too."
Cheng Jun ignored him and put on his headphones.
"Boss, aren't you curious? Boss, I beg you to ask me. It's not easy for me. "
Tu Nan looked anxious. "I think my secretary is secretly in love with me. Do you know that? It's because I'm too slow-witted that I didn't realize that she had such deep feelings for me! "
Cheng Jun changed the song. The heavy metal music suppressed Tu Nan's voice.
Tu Nan looked sad.
He still wanted to talk about his psychological journey!
When the two came out of the door, they saw a group of people on the road. It was obvious that it was the scene of a car accident. Among them, one person was crying loudly. The people who heard it couldn't help but feel sad.
Tu Nan couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Then.
Tu Nan said, "Eh? Isn't that Sister-in-law? "
Cheng Jun took off his headphones and looked in the direction Tu Nan was pointing. He saw Ruan Qiuqiu kneeling on the ground and crying sadly in the crowd.
Tu Nan: "…"
Cheng Jun: "…"
