Ch117.2 - Busy (1/2)
The next day, Zhou Sheng casually mentioned to his department’s manager that he would be going to Beijing during the weekend, but the manager was a little surprised.
Zhou Sheng, “What’s wrong?”
“I was going to take a few of you guys out to Guangdong for a meeting.” The manager said, “Can you reschedule it on your side?”
Zhou Sheng answered, “I can’t reschedule it.”

The manager said, “Then what should we do? We’ll have to think of something.”
Zhou Sheng was baffled. He didn’t expect anything else to happen over the weekend as well. Was this considered overtime? Many employees in Yun Lai Chun did work overtime on Saturdays and Sundays; on the one hand they could earn some brownie points, and on the other hand, the single dogs could scrimp on their electricity bills.
“I’ll let Director Huang know.” The manager said, “He wasn’t really in favour of taking up your private time in the first place……”
The deputy general manager of the business department wasn’t one of Zhou Laichun’s “people”. Zhou Sheng understood at once, and the manager was very tactful as well. He stopped talking right then and said, “See if there’s anything else you can do about it first ba, if you really can’t, then don’t go.”
Zhou Sheng was worried about letting Yu Hao go to Beijing alone to start work and had planned to buy a ticket to accompany him there to settle down first. But Yu Hao’s call came real quickly.
“You’re sending me off this weekend?” Yu Hao asked.
Zhou Sheng was absolutely puzzled, “How did you know that?”

Yu Hao said, “Your father called me and said that you’ll be going to Guangdong……”
Zhou Sheng blew up at once. Yu Hao said, “Don’t get angry, I didn’t ask you to send me ah. I’ll go by myself. I’m getting a high-speed rail ticket, and I’ll arrive the next morning, I’ve already bought the ticket.”
Zhou Sheng, “No way!” Then he noticed that the people around him were looking at him. The office was rather quiet, so Zhou Sheng had to go to the emergency exit at the corner of the corridor to talk. Yu Hao insisted that he would be fine going alone, and asked Zhou Sheng to fly over for a visit after he was done being busy. Zhou Sheng was a little irritated, and they almost quarrelled again.
Zhou Sheng, “What kind of a bullshit company is this? Even the crown prince has to work overtime. They won’t even let me off on weekends. Just wait and see, when Laozi takes over……”
“Keep your voice down!” Yu Hao said, “Are you in the office? I’m only leaving with one luggage case, and isn’t it the same if you come visit me in a week?”
Zhou Sheng could hear the door of the emergency exit close, so he had to say, “I’ll stop here, let’s talk about it again when I get home tonight.”
Zhou Sheng returned to the office. Zhou Laichun sent him a message again.
【Can’t you find a place where there’s no one else there to make your call? A few people from the advertising department including the director were smoking in the stairway, and they heard everything.】
Zhou Sheng blacklisted his father and only removed him from the blacklist after work. There was no need for anymore dinner engagements tonight, thank God. But the manager gave him a stack of strategic plans to read and asked him to come up with a new one using those as a reference. And he had to finish it by Friday.
Zhou Sheng wanted to blow up, but when he thought about how the manager was part of his father’s ‘own people’, he must have gotten some hint to get Zhou Sheng to produce some results as soon as possible, so he couldn’t say much about it.
That night, Zhou Sheng took his work home, opened up the laptop, and sat opposite Yu Hao at the dining table. Yu Hao said, “I’ve already reserved the rail ticket, just go to Guangzhou.”

Zhou Sheng wanted to say something, but Yu Hao said, “You’ve already decided to work at Yun Lai Chun, so you might as well spend more time on your work ba.”

Zhou Sheng couldn’t say anything in response.
Yu Hao smiled as he looked at Zhou Sheng. Zhou Sheng was still wearing a shirt and suit pants, and his handsome face was dark. Yu Hao said, “Director Zhou, when you look all solemn and angry, you seriously look too cool.”
Zhou Sheng said, “So it’s right for you to make me angry.”
Yu Hao smiled as he looked at him, “Although I shouldn’t say this, I think you look more handsome than Chen Laoshi in your formal attire.”
Zhou Sheng had rolled up his sleeves and was using the mouse. When he heard that, he put on the non-prescription glasses and smoothed his hair back with five of his fingers, revealing his forehead as he stared at Yu Hao with a grave expression. Yu Hao almost rolled off his chair; he wore a frantic expression on his face and didn’t know what to say.

“Go and take a bath.” Zhou Sheng pointed at the bathroom and said all cold and abstinent-like, “Once you’re done, wait for me on the bed.”
At that moment, Yu Hao really felt like an arrow pierced straight through his heart. After being together with Zhou Sheng for two years, the two of them had unconsciously gotten used to the other’s company. But ever since the day Zhou Sheng started going to work, it was as if he was reexperiencing the feeling of his heart beating wildly during those days when he had a crush on Zhou Sheng.
Yu Hao had always been indifferent to men in suits, and his blind date “if you don’t manage your money, your money won’t care about you” made him stay far away from them as well.
But when it was on Zhou Sheng, the temperament of a mature, working man suddenly made his heart palpitate — an overbearing CEO was simply the gem of the world! Yu Hao was beginning to understand why romantic danmei novels loved the CEO trope! Who wouldn’t love this kind of CEO?!
“You definitely can’t show such an expression to the young girls in your office.” Yu Hao said, “And you’re forbidden from looking at anyone with that kind of gaze.”
“But, I, want, to.” Zhou Sheng enunciated each word coldly, “Why? Do you have something against that?”
Yu Hao went over to pounce on him. Zhou Sheng couldn’t stand getting tormented by him anymore and held him in his arms, “Knock it off! I still have to write up a strategic plan……”

“I’ll write it for you!” Yu Hao shouted, “President, I want to mate with you!”
Zhou Sheng picked Yu Hao up and carried him into the room, threw him onto the bed then laid beside him. Yu Hao started unbuttoning his shirt, while Zhou Sheng took off his glasses and sighed a little wearily.
“I really can’t feel rest assured letting you go to Beijing alone.” Zhou Sheng said, “What if you don’t go? Could you just stay at home as a Young Madam?”
Yu Hao tugged his shirt collar and kissed him. The two of them embraced each other in bed and started kissing passionately. Zhou Sheng was still wearing his suit pants and black socks, when an idea flashed through Yu Hao’s mind, ah, his shirt’s gonna get wrinkled again. Never mind I’ll iron it……
Reality proved that it was right for Yu Hao to have let himself go this once that night, because Zhou Sheng had to attend dinner engagements for the next two days, and Zhou Sheng returned very late on the night before Yu Hao left, so they didn’t have much time to be affectionate.
