17. Chapter 17
As the person who pays, You Zhengping naturally wants to ask the guests to order food.
Yu Hua chose a few dishes that You Zhengping liked. He was not very interested in the food he particularly liked, nor did he disliked. He also liked to see You Zhengping enjoy eating delicious food.
You Zhengping is actually not picky about food and eats everything, but when he encounters someone he likes, he will eat sweetly.
"I like it all, what about you?" You Zhengping was a little dissatisfied when he saw the menu.
"I like whatever you like." Yu Hua did not say anything earthy or excuses, but only when you see You Zhengping eating happily can Yu Hua feel that the food that tastes delicious as waxy.
When You Zhengping heard him say this, he felt even more guilty and didn't know how to ask Yu Hua.
Yu Hua naturally poured You Zhengping a cup of tea and asked casually: "I just found a job and haven't had time to tell you how you knew it? The news is so fast."
Yu Hua did not doubt You Zhengping. He had been with his lover for so many years, and he still had the most basic trust.
You Pingzheng killed the cup of tea like a gulp of water, gritted his teeth and said, "I, I ask Cen Xiao to secretly ask his brother to inquire about you in the talent market. You have been looking for a job these days and are reluctant to tell me. I am a little worried."
He lowered his head guiltily and said, "I'm sorry, I should leave you with personal space."
"What's that?" Yu Hua naturally added a cup of tea for You Zhengping. "You didn't ask me about my job search every day, but instead consulted me considerately. Not only did you give me enough breathing space, but you were also secretly caring for me. I was too happy."
Why is Yu Hua so good? You Zhengping almost cried when he heard his answer. Yu Hua was just a silly and sweet person. No wonder he offended the leader and was fired in the original company. It must be the leader's fault.
"I'm very embarrassed." You Zhengping grabbed the teacup with both hands and did not dare to look up.
Seeing that You Zhengping lowered his head and did not move, Yu Hua pulled his hand and held it in his palm and said, "People always feel depressed. When I feel sad, when I think of someone who cares about me secretly, he is willing to work hard to become my pillar no matter how depressed I am. You don't need to feel sorry, it's me that I should say thank you."
You Zhengping raised his head and looked at Yu Hua's eyes, thinking that this must be my original Yu Hua. Lian Yufan just looked for trouble. Zhen Li even used Yu Hua's kindness to deceive him.
Thinking of the destructor Zhen Li, You Zhengping felt a sense of crisis. If Zhen Li hadn't deceived Yu Hua into working in his studio, Yu Hua would not have been suspected by the guardian organization. No matter what the investigation result is, You Zhengping must persuade Yu Hua to resign!
"Since you don't hate me and care about you, I have two words to say." You Zhengping rubbed Yu Hua's palm with his fingertips.
Yu Hua's palm was scratched, and his heart also itched. He smiled and said, "What are the instructions?"
"You are an executive of the top 100 companies in China. With such high qualifications, what jobs can't be found? Why do you have to work in that small broken studio?" You Zhengping asked unhappily, "I ask Cen Xiao to check it out. Boss Zhen's studio has only been registered for three days. He has not finished his college leave and has come to start a business. It's so unreliable!"
You Zhengping cannot mention topics such as "destroyers", "danger", and "conspiracy", and can only rack his brains to find reasons.
Yu Hua had long known that his lover would definitely not be satisfied with this job, and no normal person would be satisfied, but he had already thought of an excuse.
"Of course I know that his studio is not formal enough," Yu Hua was about to deceive his lover. He didn't want to face his lover's pure eyes with his cunning. He lowered his head and looked at the hands they held, and recited the lines according to the plan. "But, Pingping, I have been working for five years after I graduated from college. In another three years, I will be thirty."
"So you are young and promising, and you are talented in Zhenli Studio." You Zhengping said toughly.
Yu Hua continued to recite the lines: "People say that 'are at thirty'. Before the last company left, I was actually a little anxious and never dared to tell you."
"What are you anxious about?" You Zhengping asked in confusion.
Yu Hua said: "I saw the top and development space of my profession. I found that I may be just a personal executive for the rest of my life. Of course, the title of "executive" sounds very decent, but what is behind it? Overtime work on call and the leaders are calling and drinking, and I am increasingly yearning for newcomers who are free and difficult to manage, the helplessness between superiors and subordinates, and... the declining self.
"Pingping, do you remember how many times I have cooked breakfast and dinner for you in order to work overtime? Three years, 176 breakfasts and 459 dinners. We have been married for a total of 1,072 days and nights. I have half of the time I can't be with you. Are you sad when I am not at home?"
"Yes, I'm a little lonely, but that's all work." You Zhengping's face gradually turned red. He didn't expect that Yu Hua had so much thoughts hidden. "And I didn't notice that you are so anxious. I just know that I'm too unqualified if you just want you to cook every day."
That's not! Yu Hua frowned. He clearly liked such a life, he enjoyed such a real feeling of living. He liked the message You Zhengping sent him "Enjoy the work and go home quickly, I miss you" when he worked overtime, which made him particularly motivated!
He originally planned to stop being an executive of the company after he paid his mortgage, leave the high-pressure human resources department, and transfer it to a relatively idle department for retirement. This is his true wish!
But now, the system is revived, the ability is gradually lifted, and the destroyers appearing in the world... All of this forced Yu Hua to fight. He had already passed the level, but he still had to return to his old career, and might even endanger his family!
Yu Huaxin said incorrectly: "So I gave myself three years to try to start a business before I was thirty. I wanted to know where the limit of my ability is. I wanted to try to challenge myself, and I wanted to give you a more stable and comfortable life."
You Zhengping could no longer hold it back. His tears fell down with no money, and he choked and said, "It was me who forced you too tightly."
"No," Yu Hua gently picked up the tissue and wiped away his tears, "You are my motivation to move forward."
Yu Hua looked at You Zhengping's tears and felt sad. He used false reasons to trick his lover into tears.
"But why must it be Zhen Li's studio?" Even though he was sad, You Zhengping still refused to give up.
Yu Hua also thought about this reason, and he smiled faintly: "First point, his strict conditions for selecting people mean that Zhen Li is ambitious. He can take a break from college to start a business and recruit high-quality employees with his dilapidated qualifications. I admire such courage and confidence. I didn't expect that young people now can have such courage. He made me feel that I am worth a try!"
You Zhengping: "..."
He wanted to grab Yu Hua's shoulder very much, shake his body wildly, and shout "You're sober." Zhen Li's that was not called courage, or overestimating his ability!
Yu Hua continued to say something that ghosts didn't believe it: "Secondly, the contract limit he gave was very good, which was exactly three years. I plan to start a business before the age of 30. If I accomplish nothing before the age of 30, I will go back to find a job. Having the previous qualifications, it is not difficult to find a job at the age of 30, and it is very suitable."
You Zhengping: "..."
In fact, he has a military organization, which Yu Hua can use at any age, so he doesn't have to care about Zhen Li's contract time at all.
As he was about to finish his lines, Yu Hua said briskly: "The third point is that Zhen Li is too young. He has the motivation and potential of young people, as well as the lack of experience and silly young people. I agreed with him that I would participate in studio operations and personnel management, and own 40% of the company's shares.
"In addition, my idea is a bit despicable, and I only tell you one person. Zhen Li is a little immature. I can easily convince him to brainwash him with his professional experience. In entrepreneurship, I have great say and can let the studio develop according to my ideas."
You Zhengping: "..."
Yu Hua knew You Zhengping very well, and the reason he prepared in advance blocked You Zhengping's every objection.
You Zhengping wanted to persuade Yu Hua with the unreliable studio. Yu Hua said it would be better if it was unreliable. I could defeat the boss; You Zhengping wanted to say that starting a business might fail, but Yu Hua said that I allowed myself to fail, which is the opportunity I gave myself; You Zhengping wanted to say that a large number of companies outside wanted to hire you, Yu Hua said that I was in a bottleneck period of my career and could not bear it mentally and always wanted to die once.
All the persuasions prepared by You Zhengping were accurately predicted by Yu Hua, and he died of the womb before he could say it.
The dishes were served, and You Zhengping didn't know what to say, so he could only hide it by eating. Today they were all dishes he liked, but You Zhengping had no sense of taste. He put the food in his mouth with difficulty, chewed mechanically, and swallowed without happiness.
Yu Hua felt guilty and heartbroken, and couldn't eat it. The two of them ate this meal without realization, just stuffing food into their stomachs.
You Zhengping secretly glanced at Yu Hua and saw Yu Hua concentrate on picking fish bones, so he hurriedly sent a message to Cen Xiao: I think he resigns, what should I do?
After Cen Xiao, who had something to do, had nothing to do, had sex with the rogues, parted with the two, he returned to the base to assist in the monitoring and had heard Yu Hua's reason long ago.
Yu Hua's explanation left them speechless, and even the monitoring team suspected that it was just a coincidence.
As You Zhengping's best friend, Cen Xiao was worried about him. Now, after receiving You Zhengping's request for help, he replied for a long time: Foreigners are talking about big principles, and family members don't need reason to oppose them. You can "not listen, don't listen."
You Zhengping's eyes lit up when he saw the message. He remembered the feeling of being unhappy when Zhen Li danced in front of Yu Hua and the barrage fans who painted "domineering manager and pretty boss". He immediately had a new excuse.
What reason does it mean to talk to your partner? If you compete with your principles in marriage, you just don’t want to pass it. He will make trouble again today!
You Zhengping poked the bottom of the bowl with chopsticks hard, making a loud noise to express his dissatisfaction.
Yu Hua looked at his lover in surprise. He should have convinced Pingping, so why would his lover be dissatisfied?
After successfully attracting Yu Hua's attention, You Zhengping shouted: "I just don't like you working with him. He is younger than me and better than me. Live fans say you are a CP, and he even calls me 'uncle', deliberately mocking me for being old, and I don't agree!"
This was something Yu Hua had never expected. He was stunned for a moment, his face full of "incredible".
You Zhengping slapped the table hard. Today he would not be a caring family member, he would be a little fairy who would do the world!
"What does your expression mean? Why don't you answer? Are you guilty? Have you changed your mind?" You Zhengping said furiously.
"No," Yu Hua waved his hand quickly, "I just didn't expect that in the eyes of... outsiders, could Zhen Li be comparable to you? It's like someone told me that the artificial lake in the park next door is wider than the East China Sea, and I couldn't accept this view for the moment."
You Zhengping: "!!!"
Yu Hua's tone was sincere and his expression was not fake at all. He was sincere. This attitude made You Zhengping feel excited and couldn't do it at all. He couldn't help laughing.
"I didn't expect you... to look at me like this." You Zhengping touched his thick hair and said embarrassedly, "I thought you always thought I was a colorful bald man."
When talking about the encounter, Yu Hua couldn't help laughing, so he simply stood up and sat next to You Zhengping, and said with a smile: "It's still a normal hairstyle."
The two of them held their hands tightly and their hearts were closer.
After dinner, You Zhengping took advantage of the checkout to call Cen Xiao: "What should I do? I can't do it, I can't bear to make things difficult for him."
Cen Xiao: "...I'll sew my mouth on you two!"
At the same time, Yu Hua took out the makeup mirror expressionlessly and sent a message to Zhen Li with the ability that was sealed to a small extent: My wife thinks your flat face is quite beautiful. Although I can't see any advantages, in order to reassure my wife, please hit a pillar tonight and ruin your face. Don't force me to do it yourself.
