Chapter 14 Poor little Zhu was forced to deliver food
"Master." The butler thought that his knock on the door had disturbed Su Xingque, nodded and explained, "Young master has not left the room, I am afraid that something may happen."
Just as Su Xingque wanted to nod his head to show that he knew, the door behind the housekeeper opened a small crack.
The light from the guest bedroom overflowed through the crack of the door, Shen Zhu was sleepy, and when he saw Su Xingque, he retreated into the room and slammed the door shut.
Although it was Su Xingque himself who said that he was not allowed to appear in front of him, it was still a little hard to accept that a person who was usually respected was suddenly slammed at the door.
Su Xingque's face was a bit ugly, and the butler was caught between the freezing eyes and the closed door, pretending that he was a handful of transparent air.
A few seconds later, there was a crackling sound behind the guest bedroom door, and a ray of light fell along the floor to Su Xingque's feet.
Shen Zhu explained in a low voice, "I, I didn't close the door so hard on purpose..."
Su Xingque's expression softened a little, as if he didn't hear his words, he went upstairs.
"Young master, come out to have some supper?" The butler acted on his own merits, and just rightly eased Shen Zhu's embarrassment.
The result of sleeping too much in the evening was insomnia. Shen Zhu lay on the bed after eating supper, and after playing a few games, he slowly opened the WeChat that Shen Pengcheng sent him a few hours ago.
"Little Zhu, do you still get used to it after getting married? I heard that you moved to the Su family's old house?"
"Whenever dad is free, I'll go and see you, and visit Mr. Su by the way."
The old fox is really particular about the art of speaking.Shen Zhu snorted coldly, not listening to the long series of voices that followed.
Shen Pengcheng clearly wanted to come to ask for some benefits, and by the way, see what his status is in the Su family after he gets married.
It seems that Su Xingque didn't give the Shen family much business support, Shen Zhu pinched the phone with his index finger and thumb, spinning it while thinking. .
Shen Zhu didn't know how true or false Shen Pengcheng's words were, and he was always preparing for the other party's visit in the next few days.
But in the end, Shen Pengcheng didn't come, but Meng Jing made a surprise attack.
Ever since she found out that Su Xingque received the certificate and hadn't brought him home, Meng Jing has been looking for a chance to see the young couple again, and to use her status as an elder to put some pressure on them so that they can live an honest life.
She mentioned to Su Xingque several times about bringing Shen Zhu back for dinner, but Su Xingque found various reasons to prevaricate them.
There was nothing she could do if her son became disobedient, so Meng Jing had no choice but to take the initiative and chose a day with good weather to come to Su's old house.
When the housekeeper received the news that his wife was coming, he woke up Shen Zhu early in the morning and stood waiting at the gate of the manor.
Meng Jing's eyes were sharp, and she immediately saw that the ring on Shen Zhu's hand was gone.
"Where's the ring?" Meng Jing took Shen Zhu's hand and asked softly as she walked into the house.
"Is it because you don't like the style? You can ask the designer to adjust it." She was afraid that there might be some reason behind it that she didn't know, so she deliberately left a step for Shen Zhu.
The question came suddenly, Shen Zhu let out an ah, and replied, "I don't like it, but I'm afraid it will be damaged when I wear it while doing housework."
"Just let the servants do the housework." Meng Jing guided with a smile, "You usually spend more time with Xing Que and cultivate more relationships."
Shen Zhu pursed his lips and smiled, but didn't answer this sentence.
Meng Jing liked the child Shen Zhu from the bottom of her heart, and after entering the house, she dragged him to sit in the living room and asked him about his health, such as whether the illness healed last time, whether he was used to living here, and how he got along with Su Xingque.
Shen Zhu answered one by one according to the template of a model couple, and when he could say the last sentence, he found that the expression on Meng Jing's face changed.
"Are you really okay?" Meng Jing's eyes showed a hint of worry, "He let you stay outside like that on the night of the wedding, and he hasn't picked you up yet."
"I was a newlywed, but I wasted the whole night..."
Only then did Shen Zhu realize what Meng Jing really meant.
Is this asking if there is some aspect of their life that is not in harmony?
This is a bit difficult to answer ha...
After all, Meng Jing lived decades longer than Shen Zhu, so she immediately saw his embarrassment at the moment, and said hesitantly, "This child has been cold-tempered since he was a child, and his reluctance to get in touch with you is probably due to his personality, so don't think too much about it. "
Hey, Shen Zhu suddenly remembered the gossip he heard from Kaka at the bar that day——
Su Xingque was not very good.
It seems that even his own mother thinks so.
"I didn't think much about it." Shen Zhu replied dryly.
When it was approaching lunch time, the housekeeper came over and asked if he wanted to call Su Xingque back and have dinner with them.
"I don't want to see him." Meng Jing was a little annoyed after confirming that Su Xingque had never touched Shen Zhu, "Let him live with the company for the rest of his life and never come back."
The housekeeper and Shen Zhu didn't say anything, they could only sit and apologize.
Meng Jing thought about it, and decided to find a breakthrough from Shen Zhu.
"Go and pack a lunch." She ordered the housekeeper.
"Xiao Zhu, why don't you go and deliver lunch to Xing Que? He will be very happy when he finds out."
Shen Zhu is just a duck being driven to the shelves at this moment, and has no other choice but to agree.
Half an hour later, Shen Zhu took the insulated lunch box and got into the car driven by Meng Jing's queen driver.
He originally planned to talk to Su Xingque, and then sneak out halfway after a confession, but he didn't expect Meng Jing to be thoughtful and very "intimate" to ask his driver to take him there.
In fact, it is just arranging eyeliner.
The driver sent Shen Zhu to Su's gate, opened the door to welcome him out, then stood in front of the car and watched him enter the company building.
Su Xingque and Shen Zhu are secretly married, so except for Wilson, no one else in the company knows Shen Zhu's true identity.
During the lunch break, there were a lot of people coming and going in the hall, and Shen Zhu was particularly conspicuous with his insulated lunch box.
"Whose little boyfriend is this here to deliver meals? He looks so handsome!" When the two female staff members passed by Shen Zhu, they couldn't bear to look away, and because they were excited, their voices became a little louder.
Shen Zhu pretended not to hear, and looked at the girl standing at the front desk.
Very good, it's still the one who stopped him last time.
It seemed that it was impossible to sneak upstairs, Shen Zhu thought about it, and decided to call Su Xingque.
After five times in a row no one answered, Shen Zhu wondered if he had been blocked by the other party.
For the last time, Shen Zhu hid in the corner of the lobby, pressing his phone angrily.
After two beeps in the handset, the phone was hung up.
Ok, now the good news is that he wasn't blocked.Shen Zhu resisted the urge to throw the thermos.
The bad news is that Su Xingque didn't answer his call, which is no different from being blocked.
"Mr. Shen?"
Just as Shen Zhu was about to break the jar and head back home, a familiar voice sounded behind him.
After confirming that he had identified the right person, Wilson quickly greeted him, took the things in Shen Zhu's hand, and led him to the elevator.
"President Su is in a meeting." Wilson reported to Shen Zhu, "The representatives of the partners this time are a bit difficult to deal with. The meeting that was supposed to end in the morning has been delayed until now."
