1199 I’m Willing
When Han Wenjing heard the words ‘CEO’s wife,’ her heart seemed to hurt. Looking at Jian Changsheng’s anxious back, she felt bitter.
Fortunately, she was still someone who could control her emotions. She knew that her sincerity was ultimately wrong. Her feelings would never receive a response from the CEO.
Not to mention that he was already married, but even if he was not married, he would not like her at all.
Han Wenjing knew herself very well. She was not the kind of woman that men would love. Her strong personality and strong career ambition made her work harder than men.
Therefore, she, who was already over thirty years old, had never fallen in love once. The only time was admiration for a married man.
How ironic and ridiculous!
When Jian Changsheng returned to the office, Qiao Shuyi was already asleep on the black leather sofa.
Seeing this, Jian Changsheng closed the door gently and went to the inner room to take out a blanket. He opened it and gently covered Qiao Shuyi.
Unexpectedly, this gentle action still woke her up.
“Changsheng…” Qiao Shuyi opened her eyes and saw Jian Changsheng. She sat up and raised her hand to support her face and hair. Then, she smiled in embarrassment. “You finished your meeting? I was a little bored from waiting, so I fell asleep!”
“Why did you make this trip? You knew you had to wait for a long time,” Jian Changsheng said. His tone was not blaming, but heartache.
Qiao Shuyi smiled indifferently. “It’s fine. I’m just afraid that you’ll be too tired and not eat well!”
As she spoke, Qiao Shuyi stood up and walked to the shelf to get the lunch boxes. Then, she opened them one by one. “They’re still hot. I’ll eat with you!”
Jian Changsheng was touched and couldn’t help but walk forward and hug Qiao Shuyi. His low voice followed. “You can understand my hard work, but I’m the same. I can understand your hard work!”
Qiao Shuyi paused for a moment and smiled. She reached out and gently hugged Jian Changsheng’s waist. She whispered, “I don’t have to work. What’s so hard about it…”
“It’s hard on you to wait for me every day,” Jian Changsheng said.
When Qiao Shuyi heard this, she gently pulled herself out of Jian Changsheng’s arms. She looked up at his deep eyes and smiled. “That’s not hard work. It’s happiness.”
“Eat quickly. It’ll be cold soon. Nanny Xu brewed this crucian carp soup for a long time.”
Jian Changsheng smiled and nodded. Then, he pulled Qiao Shuyi to sit on the sofa.
Qiao Shuyi didn’t show any abnormality from the beginning to the end. It was as if what she heard in the bathroom didn’t affect her at all. She didn’t even ask Jian Changsheng if he had traveled with someone on this business trip.
Her condition did not differ from usual, as if she had never heard those words.
Not long after, there was a knock on the office door.
“Come in!” Jian Changsheng put down his chopsticks and looked up. Han Wenjing pushed the door open.
Han Wenjing was still wearing a professional female suit. Her short hair and thick glasses gave off a capable and boring feeling!
“Wenjing?” Seeing that it was Han Wenjing, Jian Changsheng couldn’t help but ask, “What’s the matter?”
However, Jian Changsheng didn’t seem to notice that he called Han Wenjing by her nickname so naturally.
Qiao Shuyi was drinking soup from a bowl and did not seem to care.
When Han Wenjing saw Qiao Shuyi, she nodded and greeted her politely, “Hello, Madam.”
Qiao Shuyi smiled elegantly and nodded. “Hello.”
Only then did Han Wenjing walk up to Jian Changsheng and hand over the document in her hand. “CEO, this is the model contract for the China Trade Street project in the capital that I drafted. Take a look. If there are no problems, I’ll send it to the other party!”
“So soon?” Jian Changsheng was shocked. He had handed this mission to Han Wenjing the day before yesterday. She had drafted the model in less than two days.
Han Wenjing gently adjusted the glasses on her nose bridge and said, “At that time, you said to do it as soon as possible, so I stayed up all night to make it. I just don’t know if it’s passable!”
Jian Changsheng chuckled. He had always been confident in Han Wenjing’s work ability. While pursuing efficiency, she could also ensure quality assurance.
“Alright, I’ll read it after my meal,” Jian Changsheng said.
Han Wenjing nodded. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, Jian Changsheng stopped her. “Wenjing, you still have to go to the capital next week. Talk to the construction material company about lowering the price. I’m worried if others go!”
“Alright, CEO,” Han Wenjing agreed and left the office!
After Han Wenjing left, Jian Changsheng couldn’t help but chuckle. Then, he said to Qiao Shuyi in a casual tone, “This Han Wenjin’s work ability is outstanding. Even her department exceeded the work target every quarter. In the past few years, she became a director with an annual salary of one million yuan from an ordinary employee. She’s also the youngest director on the company’s board of directors!”
Jian Changsheng’s tone was natural, but it revealed his appreciation and praise for Han Wenjing’s ability.
When Qiao Shuyi heard this, she couldn’t help but smile and agree. “Sometimes, I’m quite envious of such working women. Their lives are fulfilling, they have goals, and they have their own values. Many women yearn for them but can’t achieve their ideals.”
Jian Changsheng couldn’t help but sigh. “That’s why it’s not easy for you women. You always have to be in a dilemma between work and family! Take Han Wenjing for example. Her annual salary is one million yuan, and she has a house and a car. But she’s in her thirties and isn’t married!”
“Moreover, as far as I know, she hasn’t been in a relationship in the company all these years! Her personality is very strong, and no man would dare to pursue her. She’s not easy to control!”
Qiao Shuyi scooped another bowl of soup for Jian Changsheng and said, “When two people are together, don’t always think that one party can control the other. Only an equal individual can maintain the balance of their relationship. However, it can’t be hot or cold. A normal temperature is the longest.”
“Haha…” Jian Changsheng couldn’t help but laugh. He looked at Qiao Shuyi with a doting expression and said, “It’s fine if others say this, but it doesn’t seem convincing coming from you! You’ve attached your entire life to me. Between us, you’ve sacrificed far more than me, so sometimes, I always feel guilty!”
Qiao Shuyi narrowed her eyes. “Why? Did I put all my energy and attention on you to make you feel pressured?”
Jian Changsheng took a deep breath and reached out to hold Qiao Shuyi’s hand. He said gently, “Of course there’s pressure, but I’m willing to endure it!”
