Feast for Shengsheng

Chapter 844 lingering fears

Now, the atmosphere at the Zhou family's residence became very delicate.

Wen Ning, on the other hand, took a long nap.

When Wen Ning opened her eyes, it was already 4 p.m.

Wen Ning was stunned when she looked at her phone; Zhou Yi hadn't called her at all.

Wen Ning snapped out of her daze and quickly headed towards her office.

Then Wen Ning saw that there was no one in the office.

Zhou Yi went back?

Before Wen Ning could react, her assistant pushed the door open and came in.

"Sorry, I overslept. You didn't even come to wake me up for the meeting?" Wen Ning frowned as she looked at her assistant.

The assistant should not make this mistake.

But you made the mistake today?

As a result, the assistant looked at Wen Ning nervously and immediately ran over.

"Sister Ning, why didn't you say that your brother-in-law is the big boss?" The assistant's face was still pale.

"I was going to come in and call you for the afternoon meeting, but I found General Manager Zhou reviewing documents. General Manager Su also got scolded when she came in. So the afternoon meeting ended up being led by General Manager Zhou."

"You have no idea, all those bosses who usually love to argue are unusually quiet today."

"Aside from the reports, there wasn't a single word in the conference room. When President Zhou asked questions, they all stammered."

The assistant briefly described the situation in the meeting room, and seemed to be still shaken by it.

It took Wen Ning a while to react to what her assistant was saying.

"So, you're saying Zhou Yi went to the meeting in my place?" Wen Ning asked.

"Yes." The assistant nodded seriously.

Wen Ning didn't say anything, and just let the assistant leave.

She sat down and began to feel a headache.

But in the end, it seemed that Wen Ning couldn't stop Zhou Yi either.

Adding to this, Zhou Yi's words to the reporters this morning, which seemed perfectly justified, made it all seem so natural.

It seems that within the Zhou Group, it was only a matter of time before people found out about their current relationship.

In the end, Wen Ning sighed helplessly.

Zhou Yi attended the meeting in Wen Ning's place, which suddenly gave Wen Ning some free time.

Zhou Yi didn't emerge from the conference room until 5 p.m.

He pushed open the door and looked at Wen Ning: "Awake?"

Wen Ning said nothing.

"I'll finish the meeting for you, and your assistant will take notes and give them to you," Zhou Yi instructed.

Then Zhou Yi told Wen Ning about the key points from the meeting.

Wen Ning listened attentively.

She thought to herself, "There really are differences between people."

Problems that Zhou Yi could solve in a few seconds required several rounds of discussion for them.

In the end, it was all for nothing.

"What are you thinking about?" Zhou Yi walked up to Wen Ning without her noticing and asked in a low voice.

Wen Ning looked at Zhou Yi but didn't say anything.

It wasn't that Wen Ning was deliberately silent; rather, she didn't know how to speak.

The question that was on the tip of her tongue, Wen Ning found herself unable to ask.

"Wen Ning." Zhou Yi suddenly called Wen Ning's name.

"They'll find out about our relationship sooner or later. Just because I haven't seen the company for so many years doesn't mean they don't know who the boss is."

"They saw the gossip this morning. Although they didn't get any pictures of you and Sui Sui, they immediately understood when I showed up here."

“I never intended to hide this matter from the beginning.”

Zhou Yi spoke very seriously, and his gaze towards Wen Ning was completely devoid of any joking tone.

After Zhou Yi finished speaking, Wen Ning asked calmly, "Are you so sure we can be together? Zhou Yi, actually I've never had that thought. You know, the reason I'm living there now is entirely because of Sui Sui."

Wen Ning spoke in a rather detached manner.

Zhou Yi didn't get angry; he just watched.

"Even if we don't end up together, it won't make any difference whether they know it now or not. I won't put you and your daughter at the forefront of public opinion."

Zhou Yi had considered all of these issues.

Wen Ning ultimately remained silent.

Zhou Yi smiled at Wen Ning: "So, give me a chance, hmm?"

Wen Ning then calmly looked at Zhou Yi: "Are you setting a trap for me?"

"I wouldn't dare." Zhou Yi smiled faintly. "Alright, the meeting is over. Su Rui can handle the rest. Let's go pick up Sui Sui from get out of class."

Wen Ning did not refuse.

Wen Suisui's biggest hope is that Wen Ning and Zhou Yi can pick her up from get out of class together.

This is probably also to make up for the unpleasant feeling that my parents have never been together for so many years.

So now we need to intensify our efforts to get it back.

Soon, Wen Ning and Zhou Yi left together.

When the two left the office, they were quite open and aboveboard, and no one in the Zhou Group said anything.

It’s not like I’m tired of living.

After Zhou Yi made the announcement this morning, the media dared not approach him recklessly.

Zhou Yi dislikes interviews, a fact well-known to those in the media.

The two appeared discreetly near Wen Suisui's school.

Zhou Yi parked the car before escorting Wen Ning towards the school.

Wen Suisui was waiting. When she saw the two of them appear together, the little girl's eyes crinkled with joy.

"Daddy!" Wen Suisui ran towards Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi simply picked Wen Suisui up and carried her.

Wen Ning had also gotten used to Wen Sui Sui not having legs around Zhou Yi.

"Ningning," Wen Suisui called out to Wen Ning.

Then she turned to Zhou Yi and said, "Daddy, how about we go eat that seafood hot pot buffet tonight?"

“Okay.” Zhou Yi never refused Wen Sui Sui’s requests.

Wen Ning was used to it.

Therefore, Wen Ning did not want to speak.

The two of them spent the whole night with Wen Suisui.

They didn't return home until Wen Suisui had finished making a fuss.

After Auntie gave Wen Suisui a bath, the little one fell asleep as soon as she got into bed.

Not long after, Wen Ning heard Wen Suisui coughing.

She frowned, but Zhou Yi calmly stepped out and said, "Don't worry. The doctor said it's normal, it's just that it'll be more noticeable at night."

"Hmm." Wen Ning knew, but worry was inevitable.

“I’ve already contacted Professor Lin. He’s looking at Sui Sui’s medical records. He’ll be returning to China soon,” Zhou Yi reassured him.

Wen Ning's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally eased slightly.

But Wen Ning couldn't explain why, he was still very nervous.

This kind of tension is impossible to suppress.

Zhou Yi probably knew this too, so he didn't say much: "Go and rest early, don't overthink things."

Wen Ning hummed.

Only then did Wen Ning realize that the two of them were standing a little too close.

A very subtle feeling.

It's an ambiguous feeling tinged with an indescribable emotion, seemingly natural yet also dangerous.

"I'm going back to rest." Wen Ning pushed Zhou Yi away.

The moment Wen Ning pushed Zhou Yi away, Zhou Yi grabbed Wen Ning's wrist: "Wen Ning."

Wen Ning was unable to move because Zhou Yi was holding her wrist.

Although the force was not great.

Wen Ning stood passively in front of Zhou Yi and asked stiffly, "Is there something you need?"
