Since Zhou Rui said, it's not good for Qingyun Ji to leave like this, so she asked the man driving: "General Manager Qin, can you give him a ride?"

Shijie Qin chuckled and said, "Since it's your husband, there's nothing wrong with it. Come up."

Zhou Rui was also polite, and directly opened the car door and went up.

Glancing in the rearview mirror, a hostile look flashed across Shijie Qin eyes. But immediately changed his eyes back, and while starting the car, he asked with a smile: "Why, Brother Zhou also came to Hongye Group to discuss business?"

Zhou Rui shook his head and said, "Just walk around casually."

"Oh, it's quite leisurely and elegant."Shijie Qin laughed again, and said, "I heard people say that you opened a bookstore? Although you don't make much money, you just hang out at this point. Don't you need to look at the bookstore? "

Zhou Rui still couldn't hear the other party's secret sarcasm, so he said coldly: "What's the matter, does the law stipulate that the store cannot be closed at this time?"

"Zhou Rui, why are you talking to others!"Qingyun Ji immediately reprimanded, and then said to Shijie Qin: "I'm sorry, General Manager Qin, Zhou Rui seldom socializes with people, and he just talks like this. But although the bookstore doesn't make much money , but it’s still free, and I think it’s pretty good.”

In any case, Zhou Rui is her husband who has been sealed, even if she has already made up her mind to separate, Qingyun Ji doesn't want to embarrass him too much.

Zhou Rui heard that Qingyun Ji was speaking for him, and his heart warmed slightly. Just thinking that she was actually doing it for her own face, she couldn't help but feel disappointed.

When can I really make her look up to me?

Shijie Qin sneered in his heart, a broken bookstore doesn't even have a monthly profit of 1,000 yuan, what kind of freedom do you want?

Qingyun Ji is young, beautiful, and capable. Many people inside and outside the company are drooling at this flower. Shijie Qin was no exception. Although he had heard that Qingyun Ji was married, so what?

Can a wimpy and useless husband compare to someone like him who became a director just after he turned 30?

As long as he shows more strength and speaks sweet words, Qingyun Ji will be his man sooner or later!

With this in mind, Shijie Qin hoped to belittle Zhou Rui in front of Qingyun Ji, so that she could make a clearer judgment.

Smiling and patted the steering wheel, Shijie Qin said: "Freedom... This word sounds good, but in this world, money still has the final say. Let's just talk about my car, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class I just bought, the latest high-end model , It’s almost 600,000 yuan on the road. You said that if you have no money, you have to stand on the side of the road and wait for the bus, or squeeze the bus? But that kind of bus doesn’t work according to your ideas, and you can’t even use your personal time. Domination, where does freedom come from? So let me say, this man can still make money reliably. Oh, I’m not saying that Brother Zhou can’t make money, I’m just talking about freedom. How about it, Brother Zhou, look at me Is the car still available?"

Zhou Rui glanced at the front and back, then nodded and said: "Let's do it."

Shijie Qin sneered when he heard this: "From Brother Zhou point of view, I seem to think that my Mercedes-Benz E-Class is not very good. What's the matter, what kind of car does Brother Zhou usually drive? Is it an S-Class that is higher than the E-Class?"

"Why, can't I drive a Mercedes-Benz S-Class?" Zhou Rui asked coldly.

Qingyun Ji frowned, and yelled again: "Zhou Rui, are you finished?"

Shijie Qin laughed loudly, slapped his hands and said, "Awesome, it seems that everyone in the company is wrong. Deputy Director Ji's husband already drives a Mercedes-Benz S-Class, and I, the director, only drives an E-Class. It's really embarrassing." .”

"Stop!"Qingyun Ji said suddenly.

Shijie Qin turned to look at her, but seeing Qingyun Ji face turned frosty, so he had to stop the car.

When the car stopped on the side of the road, Qingyun Ji unfastened her seat belt and got out of the car. Shijie Qin hurriedly said: "Hey, Xiaoyun, I didn't mean to target anyone, don't get me wrong!"

"I'm sorry General Manager Qin, I'm not angry, but I just feel not in a good mood and want to take a walk, you go first."Qingyun Ji said, knocked on the car window, and said to Zhou Rui: "I'm not coming down yet!"

Zhou Rui just got out of the car, and before Shijie Qin could say anything, Qingyun Ji turned his head and walked forward.

Zhou Rui saw that she was angry, and quickly chased after her. At this time, Shijie Qin called him from the car window: "Hey, Brother Zhou, when will you drive your Mercedes-Benz S-Class so that I can learn a lot. Such a good car , I haven't seen it yet!"

Looking at him coldly, Zhou Rui ignored him and chased after Qingyun Ji.

Shijie Qin, who was sitting in the car, looked at his back, curled his lips, and said disdainfully: "What is it, a Mercedes-Benz S? You can't afford a domestic car worth more than 100,000 yuan, right? A piece of trash, Useless to be a big-tailed wolf here !"

Soon, he started the car and drove past Qingyun Ji and Zhou Rui.

Zhou Rui had already chased after Qingyun Ji, and seeing that her face was still cold, he asked, "Are you angry?"

It's okay not to talk, but when she spoke, Qingyun Ji stopped immediately, stared at Zhou Rui coldly, and asked, "Where's your Mercedes-Benz S? Drive it out and let me have a look."

Zhou Rui was stunned, and then understood.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Qingyun Ji sneered and said, "Why, did you take it to the car wash or maintain it? Zhou Rui, I always thought that although you were incapable, you wouldn't like bragging to cover up your incompetence like other men But now, I was wrong, you are also an extremely hypocritical man!"

The disappointment in his eyes was thick as substance.

The conversation in the car made Qingyun Ji feel ashamed.

Even if she knows that Shijie Qin is mocking Zhou Rui, if Zhou Rui doesn't say anything, she will help to speak instead.

However, you obviously have no ability, but you still want to show off, do you think everyone else is a fool?

In the whole company, who doesn't know that Zhou Rui is a wimp?

Shame, shame!

The corner of Zhou Rui's mouth was bitter, and he said, "I didn't mean that..."

"Then what do you mean?"Qingyun Ji stared at him, her face full of indifference: "Furthermore, did they say something wrong? At this time, you don't look at the bookstore, why come here to hang out? How dare you even drive a Mercedes-Benz S?" Say, do you want to tell me in the next sentence, the president of Hongye Group invited you to discuss a big deal!"

Zhou Rui really didn't know what to say, although the facts were true, but if he really told Qingyun Ji that Hongming Zhang asked him to come to help with Feng Shui, he would probably spit it out immediately.

Why can't I say what happened just now?

Zhou Rui was very aggrieved, and couldn't explain it, so he could only lower his head habitually.

"Now I don't even want to tell you the word disappointment, let alone see you! Don't follow me!"Qingyun Ji said, turned and left.

Looking at her resolute back, Zhou Rui sighed, feeling extremely depressed.

By the time he got home, it was dark.

After knocking on the door, Father-in-law-in Zeming Ji came over and opened the door. Only then did Zhou Rui see that a family of three were eating.

They never had the habit of waiting for Zhou Rui to eat together, nor did they feel the need to have such a habit. However, there is still something to be said about the scene.

"Haven't you eaten yet? Just eat together." Ji Zeming said.

"Old Ji, what are you waiting for? The food is cold!"Fengxue Song shouted impatiently.

Following Zeming Ji to the dining table, Qingyun Ji had already put down her chopsticks before she had time to sit down, and said coldly, "I'm full."

After all, she pushed away her rice bowl and went back to the bedroom.

"What's wrong with Xiaoyun? Are you in trouble at work again?"Zeming Ji asked.

"Otherwise, a girl has just been out of school for two or three years, and no one can help her." Song Fengxue said, glanced at Zhou Rui, and snorted: "It's really disgusting!"

Zeming Ji might feel that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so he called Zhou Rui to the kitchen to serve dinner.

"Just pretend to be a good person every day!"Fengxue Song was also in a bad mood today, so he just pushed away his job and stopped eating.

Seeing the Mother-in-law in-law who got up to go into the bathroom, Zhou Rui hesitated for a while, but still called her: "Mom, I want to ask you something."

"Ask me? Are you sick in the brain and need to be treated?"Fengxue Song said angrily.

Zhou Rui lowered his head and said, "I heard people say...the reason why your clinic has not been approved is because people complained about selling counterfeit medicine..."

"You fart!"Fengxue Song exploded when he heard this. She walked over quickly and slapped the table: "Which bastard did you hear that! I sell fake medicines? I also sell rat poison! Who doesn't know that my clinic is clean and never sells fake or shoddy medicines?" .”

Glancing secretly at the bedroom door, Zhou Rui did not dare to say that the news came from the Director of Industry and Commerce. If you say so, it is estimated that even the dogs in the house would not believe it.

He had no choice but to say: "Today a person from the Bureau of Industry and Commerce came to my bookstore to buy books. I just asked him casually. That's what he said."

"Fuck the fuck! I, Fengxue Song, starve to death, and I won't even sell fake medicine!"Fengxue Song scolded, and then looked at Zhou Rui suspiciously: "I couldn't find the reason from the section chief of the Bureau of Industry and Commerce. Just a random worker from the Bureau of Industry and Commerce came to your place to buy books and told you?"

"Maybe that person is not very strict, but I think he may be right, otherwise..." Zhou Rui replied.

"What do you think?"Fengxue Song interrupted him with a sneer: "What right do you have to think? Are you a doctor or an official? You don't even like a dilapidated bookstore like that. Tell me what you think? Hurry up and clean up the dishes." Chopsticks, and then stay where it’s cool! It’s already annoying, but I still hear you talking nonsense!”

Seeing Mother-in-law law angrily going back to the bedroom and slamming the door, Zhou Rui didn't know what to say.

Zeming Ji looked at the bedroom, finally sighed, patted Zhou Rui on the shoulder, and said, "Actually, you can just look after your small bookstore. We don't have high demands on you, so don't worry about it."

The underlying meaning of these words is to do your own shameful job well, and don't make trouble if you don't have the ability to take care of family affairs.

Zhou Rui understood what he heard, without explaining anything, he lowered his head and began to clean up the dishes on the table.

After Zeming Ji returned to the bedroom, he could still hear Fengxue Song scolding inside: "What kind of cat and dog Useless to mess with me. Yesterday, the owner of the supermarket next door told me that it was because he offended the relatives of the Director of industry and commerce. Come to say that I sell fake medicines, what's the matter, have so many things happened in my clinic, Fengxue Song for no reason?"
