Peninsula Steel Love

Chapter 824 No good banquet
What? Jessica wants to be Zhou Jing's woman? Damn, if other people heard this, it would probably cause an uproar.

Oh my god, sisters fighting over a man, believe it or not, this kind of bloody plot in a Korean drama can make a large number of spectators climax on the spot. Only Zhou Jing didn't care about it, as if she was used to it.

"Okay, you're my aunt, right?" Zhou Jing gently patted Jessica's "salty pig hand", then pouted and continued,
"Stop making trouble. Don't you see where you are? Pay attention to the impact."

Frankly speaking, this was more than the first or second time that Jessica had verbally teased him. At first, Zhou Jing felt quite embarrassed, but Jessica just liked to see him at a loss for what to do when he was teased.

So this gradually became a great pleasure in her life, especially when she was alone with Zhou Jing, so much so that Zhou Jing once avoided her for fear that the two of them might accidentally have a fight.

But later Zhou Jing gradually discovered that Jessica was just talking nonsense and was just trying to take advantage of him. When it came to her bottom line, she still insisted. Over time, he became desensitized and numb.

After all, sometimes Jessica would dare to drive 180 km/h in front of Crystal, and the little idiot Crystal would actually be happily watching the fun on the side.

Well, since his own daughter had no objection, Zhou Jing would not take it seriously. How could he know that today was different? The reason was the overseas call from his future mother-in-law.

What does it mean to be too concerned and confused? Li Jingshu is not as calm as her husband. She could have stopped talking on the phone after she had said what she wanted to say.
At first, Jessica was confused and didn't understand why her mother suddenly asked her about her relationship with Zhou Jing and other trivial matters.

Come on, shouldn't I ask Crystal about this? Jessica was still confused until she finished the call, but she soon figured it out.

Just kidding, she deals with a bunch of high-level veterans all day long, and Li Jingshu's little thoughts are not enough for her to see through. Although it was very obscure, Jessica still drew a very surprising and explosive conclusion from just a few words.

That is, her parents seemed to acquiesce to the fact that she and Zhou Jing would be together in the future, which made Jessica almost jump out of bed.

In fact, as an insider, she knew what Zheng Yuanshuo could see clearly. For this reason, Jessica had already made up her mind that she would never fall in love and get married again in this life, and she would stay with that man forever.

What's the matter? A mere little kid dares to show his teeth. Are you rebelling against her? Humph.
Her only concern was Zheng Yuanshuo and Li Jingshu. Under normal circumstances, no parent could accept such a thing. Unexpectedly, things turned out so unexpectedly. How could Jessica not be overjoyed?

However, this joy only lasted for a few seconds, because Jessica knew Zhou Jing very well. It would be extremely difficult to be his woman. Crystal had no chance with any other woman, including her, Jessica Jessica Jung.

Jessica was extremely unwilling. Logically, since they had passed the test with their parents, nothing should be able to stop them. That's why Jessica couldn't help but confess her true feelings when Zhou Jing showed up.

Of course, she regretted the words as soon as they came out of her mouth, fearing that Zhou Jing would alienate her again. This had happened before and made Jessica extremely depressed for a time.

The result made her laugh and cry. After a long time, it seemed that Zhou Jing thought she was joking. This made Jessica feel relieved but also quite disappointed.

Wait, there seems to be something wrong with what Zhou Jing said. Jessica's eyes lit up and she smiled sweetly.

"Ne, Oppa, Arasso."

What the hell? This made Zhou Jing a little confused. She was so well-behaved and obedient, maybe she was a fake Jessica. In the past, she would take advantage of the situation and take advantage of the opportunity.

In fact, he didn't realize that there was indeed a grammatical error in the sentence just now. What about considering the situation and paying attention to the impact? According to this logic, if we change the place, it will be fine.
Faced with Xika Miao’s rapid shyness, Zhou Jing said he couldn’t understand it, and thought to himself that maybe she had intermittent convulsions due to the influence of her short stature?

Well, forget it. Zhou Jing was too lazy to do the reading comprehension and turned to ask the real question.
“Well, Sooyeon, do you have any other plans tonight?”

"No," Jessica said teasingly, holding her chin with one hand and blinking her pretty eyes, "Why, do you want to treat me to a big meal?"

"Bingo, there is a dinner party at Shilla Hotel tonight. How about you condescend to accompany me?" Zhou Jing replied with a smile.

Jessica was delighted to hear that. It was rare for Zhou Jing to ask her out. The last time was because of Choi Sooyoung. This time there was no influence from Girls' Generation and it was more like a date.

Female companion? Hehe, I'm in. Jessica was about to agree happily when she suddenly found that Zhou Jing frowned unconsciously.

"Oppa, is there any problem with this dinner?" Jessica couldn't help but ask.

"Nothing, nothing." Zhou Jing evaded the question, but alarm bells were ringing in his heart.

Oh my god, when did he and Jessica have such a tacit understanding? The other party can understand what he is thinking and concerned with just a micro-expression. In the past, only Crystal could do that.

"Jinjia?" Jessica looked at Zhou Jing with extreme suspicion.

"Okay, that's it"

Zhou Jing told Jessica the details of his conversation with Su Xia, and Jessica's face changed immediately.

"Oppa, we are from Shilla Hotel and Rongjin Group. I'm afraid the matter of Chairman Su's friend is related to Samsung." Jessica said with a sympathetic look.

"Yeah, I think so too." Zhou Jing pretended to be casual and looked at Jessica quietly.

Wow, you should look at someone with new eyes after three days of absence. Zhou Jing marveled at Jessica's keen sense of smell, but he also didn't want to admit a fact.

He was more willing to discuss work and social skills with Jessica, which was something Crystal could not compare to. Only Jessica could make him tell her everything without reservation.

"No matter what, let's go first. Hurry up and get up, or the dumplings in the cafeteria will get cold soon."

After saying that, Zhou Jing fled away, but Jessica suddenly chuckled as she looked at his disappearing back.

"Haha, you are a cowardly man."
-
As night fell, today was the first day of the Lunar New Year, and the originally bustling streets of Seoul seemed unusually quiet, with only one or two cars whizzing by occasionally.

Zhou Jing is one of them. After get off work, he took the commuter bus back to Seoul, quickly took a shower, changed clothes, and then took a taxi to the Shilla Hotel.

Jessica ran away after lunch, under the pretext of going to the beauty salon. She had a dinner party in the evening and her makeup was very important. It was not only about her but also about Zhou Jing's face. "Xiu Yan, are you leaving? I'll be there in ten minutes." Zhou Jing called Jessica in the taxi to urge her.

"Mo? Who else did you bring?"

"Translation? Well, it can't be that girl Yoona."

"That's good, I don't mean anything else, haha"

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Jing fell into deep thought. Ever since Sunny made everything clear, he didn't know how to face Yoona.

To be honest, he never treated Yoona as a woman from the beginning to the end. At best, she was a little girl of his nephew's generation, probably the same as Zhou Wenqian.

She was calling him "San Chou En" just now, but turned around and said that she liked him. Zhou Jing's three views were shattered. To some extent, he would rather accept Seohyun than have any ambiguity with Yoona.

"Sir, we are here. 8200 won. Thank you for your patronage."

The driver's voice brought Zhou Jing back to his senses. He hurriedly paid and got off the car. Unexpectedly, the driver yelled at him before leaving:
"Zhou Jingxi, our Yoona is the best, please consider it, hehe."

Damn it, don't even think about it. Stop looking for trouble. As if it's not chaotic enough, Zhou Jing's forehead was filled with black lines as he watched the taxi going away.

He never expected to meet Lin Yuner's fans when he took a taxi. What he feared came true.
Zhou Jing shook his head and turned to walk into the Shilla Hotel. The elevator slowly went up to the floor where the Eight Immortals Restaurant was located. He was stunned when he opened the door.

"Secretary An, why are you here?"

The person who came was Li Fuzhen's personal secretary An Zhenxi. When she saw Zhou Jing, she bowed without saying a word.

"Director Zhou, Happy New Year. On behalf of Nim, I am busy entertaining guests and cannot be with you, so I was specially asked to come and say hello and apologize to you."

"Nuna, thank you for your concern." Zhou Jing gave An Zhenxi a virtual support from a distance. He originally thought that Lee Boo-jin just sent someone to express her courtesy, but An Zhenxi's next words moved him.

"On behalf of Nim, today is the first week of the Lunar New Year and it's rare for you to come. As Nim's representative, it's reasonable for her to be the host of this meal."

"This..." Zhou Jing subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when he looked up and saw An Zhenxi's expression, his heart suddenly moved.

It seems that Lee Boo-jin is not completely ignorant of tonight's dinner. Maybe she knows the inside story better than Zhou Jing, which is why this happened.

As expected, there is no good banquet. Zhou Jing hesitated for a moment and then nodded to An Zhenxi.

"Then I'll trouble Secretary An. Are all the guests here?"

"Yes, they have arrived."

"Have they ordered yet?"

"Ani, not yet."

"In that case, Secretary An, you will be in charge of arranging the dishes."

"Yes, Director Zhou, I wish you a pleasant meal."

Just as An Zhenxi was about to leave, Zhou Jing called her back.
"Secretary An, I will have two friends later."

"Ah, someone will take them to the private room."

No, what about An Zhenxi's half-smile? Zhou Jing wanted to explain a few words but no one gave him a chance.

"Director Zhou, this way please."

The receptionist politely guided Zhou Jing in Chinese. Zhou Jing smiled bitterly and had to follow her. Soon they arrived at the reserved private room.

Pushing the door open, I saw two middle-aged men chatting happily at the table in the huge private room. One was Rong Jin's Su Xia, and the other Zhou Jing looked very different.

He was in his forties, about the same height as him, and the smile on his face gave him a gentle and down-to-earth look.

"Brother Zhou, you are here. Let me introduce you." Su Xia stood up hurriedly upon seeing this.

"Brother Su, are you kidding me? Do I need you to introduce this person? Hehe." Zhou Jing quickly walked up to the other person and stretched out his right hand.
"Mr. Luo, nice to meet you."

"you know me?"

"Of course, it's hard not to recognize you in the country."

"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Zhou, I'm Luo Bing from Xiaohe Technology. I've really been unable to find anyone to help me this time and I have no choice but to ask for your help."

"We are all Chinese, let's sit down and talk."

"Um"
