Mr. You, Please Dote On Me

Chapter 38: Attending the Banquet Alone



You Ze was nibbling a baozi proudly; Shiyao glanced at his bloodshot eyes and suddenly felt a little sorry for him.

After breakfast, Shiyao reluctantly said goodbye to her mother and went to work with You Ze.

When there was a short distance from the company, Shiyao got off the car as usual. You Ze was eager to drive her to the company, while Shiyao insisted on keeping their marriage a secret, which he didn’t care but had to respect.

Upon entering the company, Shiyao saw a crowd in the hall.

“You finally come, Yaoyao.”

Xu Youyou saw Shiyao and pulled her to the front of the crowd and pointed to the bulletin board.

“Look, the CA campaign is restarted!”

Everyone knew well that since Ji Manqing was fired, no one took over her position and remuneration. At the same time, in order to readjust the company, everyone would be reassessed.

“Yaoyao, now it’s your time!”

Xu Youyou believed that Shiyao was qualified to be CA with her ability and knowledge. She fully supported Shiyao.

Shiyao excitedly clasped Xu Youyou’s hands. This time she must go all out.

The examination was scheduled in three days. After that, all positions would be reassigned, so everyone was anxious.

Shiyao didn’t have the slightest pressure. When others were in panic, she was more relaxed at work.

“Excuse me.”

Shiyao was standing in the aisle waiting for the needs of passengers. Suddenly, she was terrified by a gentle and neatly-dressed man.

“Yes…”

Shiyao hurriedly turned to make room for the sullen man to pass.

“They are pretty much the same…”Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Shiyao was a little stunned. The man who had just passed by had a profile extremely similar to that of You Ze.

Maybe it was just a coincidence. Shiyao didn’t think much about it and continued her work.

After work in the evening, the text from old Qin left Shiyao lost in thought.

Grandpa was old, so she must attend his 80th birthday party. But the attitude of the Qins was….

Qin’s was a big family in business. Unlike You’s family that had only one heir, Qin’s was prosperous and respected in City A.

It was the only family that could compare with You’s.

Shiyao had been thinking that You Ze was just the CEO of Jia Hang, but what she didn’t know was that You Ze was the man behind the whole UK group.

You’s had much investment in other industries that was unknown to outsiders. Nevertheless, as long as Shiyao showed them her identify of Mrs. You, the Qins would never dare to give her their attitude again.

But she didn’t.

She married You Ze just to reassure her mother and fulfill Nana’s wish early. She didn’t want to gain self-interest by relying on You Ze’s identity.

On second thought, Shiyao didn’t go home with You Ze with the excuse of girls’ meeting.

Xu Youyou accompanied her to prepare the dress.

In order to celebrate grandpa’s birthday, Shiyao bought him a piece of jade with her savings. As for the money left, Shiyao wanted to use it to rent a dress. Anyway, she seldom had social activities.

Shiyao and Xu Youyou chatted happily in the noisy shopping mall, enjoying the joy of shopping.

Suddenly, Shiyao heard a muffled sound behind her.

Shiyao turned around in confusion and saw an elderly woman lying on the ground grimaced. The woman was shivering and covering her chest.

“Someone fell down!”

Shiyao exclaimed, reaching out to help the old woman up, regardless of the strange look of the people around.

“Stop!” the strange man snapped. Then he knelt on the ground, skillfully giving the old woman first aid.

Shiyao didn’t know a bit of it, anxious but unable to do anything.

“Why are you standing still? Call the ambulance!”

The man scolded Shiyao in a low voice. Shiyao regained control of herself and dialed the number of hospital with her trembling hand.

Ten minutes later, the medical workers came. It was not until the man and Shiyao helped to lift the old woman into the ambulance that Shiyao was relieved.

“Eh…Thank you.”

Just now, when Shiyao was ill at ease, there was no one around offering help except this man.

“I did not help you. I just did what I should do.”

Xing Shenzhi answered coldly.

His voice was familiar, and he was very tall, even a little taller than You Ze. Shiyao secretly looked up at him and found that he was the man on the plane who asked her to make way for him.

It seemed that he had forgotten her. Shiyao awkwardly smiled and left with Xu Youyou.

Due to lack of time, Shiyao casually chose a long white off-the-shoulder dress. Her grandfather once said that she was as beautiful as an angel in a white dress, so she would dress herself in white every time she went to see her grandfather.

Being small and petite, and with the simple help of Xu Youyou who was good at makeup, Shiyao took on a brand new look.

“You look gorgeous, honey!”

Xu Youyou looked at her masterpiece with satisfaction and couldn’t help praising Shiyao.

“Youyou, I gotta go. It’s late.”

She checked her phone. It was already half past seven, only 30 minutes to go.

Shiyao lifted her long dress as she got into a taxi, and then bade Xu Youyou a hurried farewell.

With the gift for grandpa in her hands, Shiyao’s heart thumped.

‘All is well. I’m old enough not to be bullied,’ Shiyao repeatedly told herself. Soon, the car arrived at the Qin’s gate.

With bright lights and noisy crowds, the lively atmosphere in the courtyard was apparent at the door.

Shiyao tidied her clothes, took a deep breath, and then entered.

The whole life’s business career had Old Qin get to know many celebrities and officials, so there were many people coming to celebrate his 80th birthday today. Shiyao walked alone in the crowd without seeing any familiar face. That was fine. She just came to celebrate grandpa’s birthday, and didn’t care if anyone else noticed her.

Old Qin hadn’t yet appeared, and the guests present were chatting happily. Shiyao stood in a remote corner, holding a glass of red wine in silence. Thank God! No one noticed her.

For the moment, You Ze was on his way over here.

Shiyao could never imagine that her newly married husband was the biggest business partner of Qin’s. Old Qin appreciated You Ze very much. Even though he was sick, he had been insisting on cooperating with You Ze; Moreover, the heir of Qin’s family hadn’t yet been determined.

You Ze was planning to take Shiyao to old Qin’s birthday party, so as to prevent young ladies’ prying, but received a message from Shiyao that she would go shopping with Xu Youyou. However, Shiyao should not like such occasions with her personality.

You Ze would like to present the gift to old Qin and then go home. He didn’t like such social activities either.

No kind of activity was as interesting as his pretty wife.

Shiyao waited there alone for twenty minutes without seeing her grandpa.

The crowd suddenly turned quiet. Everyone looked at the Qins who were showing up and cheered.

Several familiar faces appeared in the crowd. They were Qin Shaofeng, Qin Shaogang, the first lady and second lady of Qin’s family, and their children.

Especially Qin Wen, who was almost at the same age as Shiyao, was the rudest to her when she first came to Qin’s house.
