Five years without pregnancy means you're too weak; I remarried a powerful man and had triplets

Shen Zhiyi froze, looking at Lu Zichuan with a puzzled expression.

This person keeps saying that she doesn't allow employees to work overtime, but in reality, she's already made her work overtime twice this week!

Is the overtime rule only applied to her?

"Then let them leave early tomorrow."

She raised her head and said, "Anyway, I'll have to make up for the time if I come late, so it's okay to leave early if I leave late, right?"

Besides, he clearly knew that the editing team was working overtime and even ordered food for them, but instead of sending Assistant Wang down to tell them not to work overtime, he called her over alone to criticize her. He did it on purpose!

Lu Zichuan watched as she clenched her fists tightly, yet dared not voice her dissatisfaction in front of him, and answered his questions with meek and obedient eyes. A fleeting smile crossed his eyes.

"Okay, then go and inform your department that they should leave work an hour earlier tomorrow."

"Okay..." Shen Zhiyi thought Lu Zichuan would be angry. After all, in all companies across the country, working overtime was acceptable, but leaving early was unheard of. She was already prepared to be criticized by Lu Zichuan when she said it, intending to brush it off. Her mouth was a step ahead of her ears, and then she realized, "What?"

Lu Zichuan tapped his fingers on the table and repeated, "I said, tell your department tomorrow that everyone who works overtime can leave an hour early."

"Really?"

Shen Zhiyi stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

Lu Zichuan raised an eyebrow: "Wasn't this the remedial solution you provided?"

"I... I was just saying..." What normal boss would take that seriously...?

"I approved it."

Lu Zichuan's words were concise and to the point; his three simple words revealed his domineering nature.

Shen Zhiyi was still staring at him in a daze when she suddenly noticed the smile in his eyes.

She instantly realized that the person's serious demeanor just now was clearly a prank on her.

A wave of embarrassment washed over me. It was so easy to see, yet she had taken it seriously in her anger...

She bit her lower lip, glanced cautiously at Lu Zichuan, and, to make sure the smile in his eyes was genuine, clenched her fist in annoyance.

It's really not her fault. These past few days, Lu Zichuan has been acting like he's taken the wrong medicine, playing a different role every day, and his attitude towards her has been fluctuating wildly, making him completely unpredictable.

"What are you thinking about?"

While Shen Zhiyi was in a daze, Lu Zichuan had already shut down the computer at some point, picked up a coat from the coat rack behind the boss's chair, placed it on his wrist, and walked up to her.

The pleasant sandalwood scent emanating from him wafted into Shen Zhiyi's nostrils, making her feel dizzy.

He was bending over, and his eyes, which were already somewhat pale than those of ordinary people, were now looking directly at her. Startled, Shen Zhiyi suddenly kicked back, almost hitting the table behind her.

Lu Zichuan reacted quickly, grabbing her wrist and gently pulling it away. The scene from an idol drama, where she was pulled into his arms, didn't happen.

He used very restraint, and once he was sure she could stand firmly, he immediately released her grip. "Be careful."

He gently reminded him.

Shen Zhiyi nodded weakly, "Oh, okay, thank you..."

"Going home later?"

Lu Zichuan asked.

Shen Zhiyi nodded.

"Pei Jin and I are also heading back, shall we come together?"

The starting point and the ending point are the same, so if Shen Zhiyi refuses, it would seem too pretentious.

Besides, this wasn't the first time she had ridden in Lu Zichuan's car.

"Okay." Shen Zhiyi nodded readily. She had brought her bag with her when she came up, so she didn't need to go down to get it. She followed Lu Zichuan, and the group went home together.

"Assistant Wang, I'll drive home myself. You're off work now."

As he approached the door, Assistant Wang was still waiting in the same spot. This was his usual way of working; he could only leave work after Lu Zichuan arrived home. He had been steadfast in his post for so many years and never slacked off.

"Yes, Mr. Lu."

Assistant Wang's gaze fell on Pei Jin, and the two exchanged a silent glance. Pei Jin gave him a "don't worry, go ahead" look, and Assistant Wang packed his things and left on his own.

Once in the car, Lu Zichuan sat in the driver's seat. Shen Zhiyi originally wanted to sit in the back seat, but Pei Jin suddenly said, "Zhiyi, you sit in the passenger seat. I'm a little tired and want to lie down for a while."

As he spoke, he opened the back door and climbed in, lying down in an extremely comfortable position.

Shen Zhiyi was not given a chance to refuse.

Shen Zhiyi subconsciously looked at Lu Zichuan, afraid that he might have some objections.

Fortunately, Lu Zichuan didn't care about this at all. He just looked at Pei Jin with doting eyes and tilted his head at her: "Aren't you getting in the car?"

"Okay."

Shen Zhiyi opened the passenger door and got in.

Lu Zichuan focused on driving, and Shen Zhiyi didn't have much to say, so she sat casually and looked out the window.

It was already dark when the streetlights stood on both sides of the road, and a cool breeze was blowing the hems of passersby's clothes, creating a unique and warm atmosphere.

The car drove quietly for ten minutes. Pei Jin, sitting in the back seat, kept turning to his left, then felt uncomfortable and turned his head to a different position. After tossing and turning several times, he sighed, sat up, and complained, "Old Lu, couldn't you have gotten a more spacious one? This car is not comfortable at all."

Lu Zichuan was still driving his Ferrari. Although the car was designed to have four seats, the back seats were basically just for decoration. The space was small and not very comfortable, which explained Pei Jin's complaints.

Shen Zhiyi, being understanding, suggested, "How about we park on the side of the road and find another spot?"

Pei Jin waved his hand: "No need, no need. I didn't like this car to begin with. It's flashy and impractical. I was just venting."

Lu Zichuan glanced at him in the rearview mirror, his eyes carrying a silent warning.

Pei Jin, however, remained completely unfazed by the threat. Instead, she pulled Shen Zhiyi aside to chat: "Zhiyi, what do you think?"

Shen Zhiyi didn't really like this kind of coupe-style car. She preferred to sit higher in a car, but she didn't know why these luxury cars liked to be made so low and cramped, making her feel like she was curled up inside. It was okay if she hadn't eaten, but if she had eaten, her stomach would be squeezed, making her feel even more uncomfortable.

But she was just hitching a ride for free, so how could she judge someone else's car?

"I'm glad you like it, Mr. Lu."

She declined to comment.

But for some reason, she felt the man next to her tighten his grip on the steering wheel. She was so quick to react that she felt like she was having an illusion.

"If you keep making noise, go back home."

At a traffic light intersection, the car slowly came to a stop at the front, Lu Zichuan said.

Pei Jin rolled her eyes, not wanting to talk to him, and leaned behind Shen Zhiyi's seat to chat with her.

"By the way, Zhizhi, I heard you're moving to a new house?"

She subconsciously glanced at Lu Zichuan, her fingers unconsciously fidgeting with the hem of her clothes, when an outrageous thought suddenly popped into her mind.

Could it be that he's been investigating her behind her back?
